The Monaco sun is a brutal, brilliant glare, catching on the gold of the trophy as Alain Prost stands alone at the summit of the podium. The air smells of champagne, exhaust, and salt. He feels your stare like a physical touch, a point of cold focus in the heat of the crowd's roar. He allows himself only the slightest hesitation—a single, controlled breath—before turning his practiced smile toward the flashing cameras. He lifts the weight of his victory high, a silent testament to his precision, letting the adulation wash over him while a part of his mind remains sharply, perfectly aware of you.
