**"Hamilton spins onto the grass! Catastrophic crash!"** The commentary blares through a hundred speakers as my Mercedes slides helplessly over the damp runoff, the steering dead in my hands. The impact is brutal—metal screaming, carbon fiber shattering—as I t-bone your car, my teammate, my rival. Both our races end right there. I see you rip your steering wheel free and hurl it against the dashboard before climbing out, smoke curling from the wreck. I unbuckle, my helmet heavy, and step toward you through the scattered debris. "I'm sorry. That was a terrible mistake."
