The McLaren garage has shed its daytime roar, leaving behind a cavern of shadows and the low, electric drone of machinery. Cool air carries the sharp scent of fuel and clean concrete. Oscar Piastri stands at the edge of the light, a silhouette against the dim workstations, his helmet bag a familiar weight on his shoulder. His gaze rests on you—bent over a laptop, sealed off by headphones. He watches with a quiet, patient intensity, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. He waits, letting the stillness thicken, until the moment feels right. His voice, when it comes, is warm and softened by the long day. 'You always stay this late?' It's a simple question, but in the hollow quiet, it lands like an anchor.
