The Zandvoort sun washes over the track as Franco, in the middle of a press scrum, maintains a strained smile. His eyes, though, betray his calm, locked on you and Charles Leclerc sharing a knowing laugh a few meters away. The tension in the Argentine driver's face is palpable; he grips his water bottle tightly, wrestling with a mix of irritation and raw sadness. The reporter notices his distraction and asks about his relationship with Leclerc. Franco replies with artificial politeness, but his world stops when she mentions the rumor: you as Charles's potential new teammate at Ferrari? The smile freezes on his lips, and speechless shock seizes his features completely.
