Summary
Max Verstappen entered the F1 world too early in the eyes of many. A reckless, dangerous driver, the others are slow to welcome him, instead shunning and ignoring the warning signs that blatantly flash bright. Even the media casts a shadow over the brilliance that the young boy holds inside. As his early years continue on, the grid will learn the hard way just how much pressure Max is under, and will be pressed to try and salvage anything they can before it's too late.

Summary
They were rivals when the sun rose and something else entirely when the night fell. Childhood memories lingered like ghosts, stitched into every single fight and every fleeting touch.
In daylight, their words cut deep. In the dark, they held each other as if the world might vanish by morning. Neither could break the rhythm. Neither could call it love.
And sometimes, the language of unsaid words is a cruel bastard that has a habit of making gentle endings sound too much like beginnings.

Summary
Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg had it all: glory, rivalry, heartbreak, betrayal, distance. But between unexpected(ly expected) reunions, cigarettes shared in shadows, flowers left at work desks, and a thousand unsaid truths, something larger than winning grew.

Genderbent Max fic because I lowkey feel like if Max was a girl, Jos would NOT have gotten away with half the shit he's done. (Also because i'm the biggest Maxiel shipper in the world and I needed this fic so bad, so I made it #glitchinthematrix)

Summary
This is an accompanying piece to "Achilles Come Down," a sort of outtakes if you will. Here you will see things from outside point of views that are not Max's and instead a collection of others on the grid. While we normally only see things from his view, now we can see how everyone else thinks and feels about Max and what they see as the 2015-2017 seasons happen.

Summary
Lewis and Nico weren’t friends, not as they once had been. But they still lived in the same apartment building in Monaco, just as they always had. Which meant that they saw each other now and then – in the foyer, or in a lift, sometimes even in the hallways. Not to mention Nico’s increased presence on race weekends.
Despite everything, though, Lewis had never held anything but love in his heart for first Alaϊa, then eventually Naila (even if he’d had to wait ages to accidentally run into Vivian with the younger of their two girls in the hallway). Whatever had come between him and Nico, it wasn’t enough to dissuade Lewis’ heart from adoring his girls.
Somehow, that unconditional love had turned into Lewis sending a boxful of Christmas gifts to each of Nico’s girls.

Summary
“Two weekends in a row,” Lewis murmured into Max’s ear. “You trying to make this a habit, kid?”
“I hope so, yes,” Max responded as he pulled away, grin still plastered to his face. “It is very lovely, sharing podiums with you, I think.”
“You say that now,” Nico Rosberg scoffed as he pushed past the pair of them – where they were still lingering in the hallway outside the cooldown room – barely sparing Lewis a glance. “Give it a few years.”

Summary
Max Verstappen is new in the grid.
Max doesn’t want to go to his hotel room. He knew what was waiting for him.
When Max arrived in his room Jos was already there. Waiting. He didn't look up “That's what you call a race?” Jos hissed “You couldn't even make it to the finish.” He opened his mouth to explain- the engine, the smoke, the failure that had nothing to do with him-But Jos was already moving.
A sharp cuff to the side of the head sent Max recoiling, more from the shock than pain. It wasn't hard. Not yet. But it was enough. "Sainz beat you. Maybe he is the real talent." Jos turned and left, slamming the door. The teen let out a breath he hadn't realized holding.After five minutes his phone rang. A message from Carlos.

Nowadays, when Lewis thinks about Nico, it’s only of his younger self. The boy who shared everything with him—his clothes, ice cream, pizza, snacks, money, karting team, dreams. Nothing was his or Nico’s. It was theirs. For a long time.

Summary
"Would someone come by with a knife – daring to stab the broken teen through his chest – he would probably scare them away with the state he was in.
Hands shaking harsher than a ride along an uneven country road strewn with deep potholes.
They'd be scared of what could possibly be going on in this man's head – a darkness clouding the Dutchman's mind, only rivalled by a black hole's nothingness.
It was just him, all alone, leaned against an old car, watching the stars as he wished for another one's life.
[...]
He dreamed of a world where they'd at least understand where his recklessness originated."or
Max gets once again abandoned on a highway, doesn't cope well with the newly acquired trauma and learns that somebody does careSeries

"If you win tomorrow, we are over."
Rosberg will win the 2016 Formula One World Championship if he finishes on the podium, no matter where Hamilton places. Hamilton will win if he just stops fucking thinking about Rosberg.

Summary
Christian Horner assigns his daughter to work with Max Verstappen because he’s “too intense” and “definitely not her type.” Max is weird. Max is awkward. Max doesn’t flirt—he malfunctions. Naturally, she wants to climb him like a podium.
one very dumb boss/dad, and Max Verstappen in compression shirts. Tessa’s not supposed to want him.
Too bad no one told her hormones that.

Summary
Australia 2008, the first time they share a podium together, something changes. It's the start of something torrid they'll keep hidden for years - well, up until seven years later when Nico finally wins a WDC and leaves, Lewis learns that he shouldn't have played with fire, and Sebastian finds a written note that reveals him the real reason why Lewis is so wrecked, and it might not be just losing a championship.
Or, a depiction of a toxic relationship between two people, and the years of healing that follow it.

Summary
In the distance, by the edge of the sound where the boats are docked, there’s a light. It’s blinking, obviously warning any boats of the docks ahead, but Nico’s stomach does a flip when he sees it.
It’s yellow, a rich yellow, like the yellow of Nico’s helmet.
No, it’s closer to the shade of Lewis’ helmet.
Nico, over the years, has gotten used to seeing that yellow helmet fly past him, racing far ahead, just out of reach.
That light, though. Nico could reach that light.

OR; Five times Nico goes to a party, +1 times when Lewis is there too. -
