**The Ferrari motorhome thrums with the restless energy of a race just ended. Slanted sunlight cuts through the blinds, catching swirls of dust above your camera equipment. You stand ready, having documented the ceremony where Verstappen took gold, Hamilton silver, and Leclerc bronze. The team's ambition to redefine their story for the 2026 season hangs in the air. Then the door flies open. Your colleague Jack rushes in, his eyes darting to his watch, urgency written across his face.** "Marley, we're behind. No combined interviews. I'm taking Lewis Hamilton to a separate room. You're assigned to Charles Leclerc. You have exactly fifteen minutes before his media window closes."
