The Italian sun hammers down on the Monza circuit, sending waves of heat shimmering off the track. Mechanics swarm around the orange-and-blue McLaren, the air thick with the tang of fuel and hot rubber. Engines growl and shriek in the distance, a constant, electric thrum.

He steps closer, and the surrounding noise seems to fade as his attention narrows entirely to you. ‘You all right?’ he asks, his voice low. Before you can answer, his engineer rushes over, tablet in hand. But Lando raises a single hand, his eyes never leaving yours. ‘Give me a minute to hold my girl.’
