Summary
Lando Norris was a brilliant pilot — everyone thought so. Sure, a bit crazy, a bit reckless, but that was just his adventurous spirit constantly urging him to find out what it was like to fly a fighter with one engine out.
Oscar, as the head of the medical service in their military unit, believed that one day he would fly himself straight onto a sad granite slab in the cemetery or, at best, into a demotion back to the rookies. One of these days, Oscar would simply kill him. If Norris didn't manage to do it himself first.

Summary
The first time Oscar Piastri meets Lando Norris, he smashes a golf ball through the windscreen of his car.
At the time, Oscar Piastri does not know he’s just met Lando Norris.
~
Oscar Piastri is a year out of culinary school and struggling to make ends meet when his old mentor Mark sets him up with a job interview to be a private chef at McLaren Manor, the ancestral home of the Norris family.
Lando is the second son of Lord Norris, every inch the aristocrat he was raised to be. Beautiful, lonely, bored - and miserable. Engaged to the beautiful Margarida and with little else to fill his time besides parties and working through his vast inheritance, Lando finds himself growing more enamoured with Oscar by the day.
But they exist in different worlds. Oscar is staff, doing what he can to make a name for himself. Lando is self-destructive in the extreme. Is it possible for them to defy the odds and find what they need in each other, or will they bring each other down trying?

Summary
Charles, a fighter pilot for the French-Monégasque Armée de l'Air, is also second in line to the Monégasque throne. And, so what, if he has a crush on Max Verstappen? Even as a tifoso? And, so what, if Max Verstappen just bought him a drink?
He's a trained, professional soldier who's done two tours in Afghanistan... He can be totally normal about this.
(He cannot, in fact, be normal about this)
(But that's okay, because neither can Max)
