Did a 20 minute drabble sprint with my speedy gentlemen buds and came out with this!

Prompt: “There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for you.”

I chose to do some Landoscar fluff :)

Under the cut!

It starts out quiet.

Like Lando isn’t even sure anything is even different. It’s casual. It’s normal.

But something has shifted in the way Oscar Piastri looks at him. And Lando doesn't know how to deal with it other than internal flailing and alarms screeching in his head.

“Here,” Oscar offers with a small nod, handing Lando his forgotten water bottle he had left abandoned in the hospitality an hour earlier.

Lando takes it from Oscar’s outstretched hand and feels their fingers brush just the tiniest bit from the pass. Lando shivers. He hopes it was internal shivering that is imperceptible to others, imperceptible to Oscar.

“Thanks.” Lando says mutely. And then Oscar does the damndest thing.

He winks at him.

Lando melts into a puddle. What is wrong with him?

—

Lando really should have the couch of his driver’s room facing the door and not facing away from the door. It was a tragic mistake in strategy on his part.

So it shouldn’t come as a surprise when he feels warm breath ghost over the back of his neck and a soft thud against the back of the couch.

He drops his phone. The traitorous device snaps into his chest and bounces onto the floor.

“Hey.” Oscar breathes down the back of his neck.

Lando makes a slightly mangled noise in response and scrambles to the floor to look for his phone. Nevermind it being a traitorous device, it’s now his savior to get Oscar’s breath away from his neck before he does something stupid like turn around and pull his face to Lando’s.

Lando finally grabs his phone and looks up at Oscar, who is now leaning over the top of the couch and tilting his head in a way Lando would die before he admits he finds cute. He’s smiling and waiting for Lando to get himself together.

It strikes Lando then. Oscar’s always waiting for him. Never pushy. Never impatient. Just. Waiting. Like he’s got all the time in the world for him.

He clears his throat. “Is it a habit of yours to frighten men in their own driver’s rooms?”

Oscar laughs, quiet and jerky, like he’s trying to bend over the front of the couch. He shakes his head. “Nah, just thought you’d appreciate these.”

At that, Oscar reveals a bag of stroopwafels he had been hiding behind the couch.

Lando gasps and climbs back up the couch to Oscar’s space.

“You dog. You did not get me stroopwafels.” Lando says in disbelief, trying to paw them out of Oscar’s grasp.

He hands them over with no issue, and Lando notices Oscar’s fingers linger just the slightest bit over Lando’s.

“Hopefully they make up for scaring the living daylights out of you?”

Lando nods his head hastily and starts tearing the package open before someone can come take them from him. Before Jon can take them from him.

“How did you get these past security?” Lando says with awe while offering Oscar a warm stroopwafel.

Oscar takes it and pops a corner of it into his mouth.

“There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for you.”

And Lando feels like the air has been sucked out of the room at the absolute sincerity in Oscar’s tone.

And then Lando finally looks up at Oscar, really looks at him. And he finds something unwavering in his eyes.

“Oh.” Lando gets out quietly.

“Yeah.” Oscar agrees, nodding his head a bit and then scratching the back of his neck.

“Would you get me chicken nuggets too?”

A laugh punches out of Oscar at that. And Lando appreciates the warmth that spreads through his chest at seeing Oscar like this. There’s something there. Lando just has to figure out what it is.

What Lando would find out later, is that Oscar already knew what it was. He would just wait a while longer for Lando to catch on.

i don’t know if this question will make sense but do you have tips for getting better at looking at f1 data? i watch the races and i know about different tire strategies, stuff like that, but i want to learn more

you might already be doing this one, but watching f1 with the multiviewer live timing open makes the experience way more in-depth. it provides real-time access to minisector timings (not the same as turns), team radios, and fia decisions as they happen. you can set a super low latency for live sessions, putting you about a minute ahead of the stream. i prefer multiviewer over online live timings since, from what i can tell, it's the most comprehensive. you will need an f1tv subscription for it

for session data, f1-tempo is the easiest way to view every lap for every driver. it has a few quirks (like not reading aborted laps properly), but it's great for comparing stints or specific laps. just remember to tick "show outliers" during races, or it might hide outlaps and sometimes inlaps

if you can code, openf1 lets you pull even more detailed data, make graphs and charts, and more. most analysts on twitter use it as their data source. very fun to play around with or look at things f1-tempo doesn't show properly

i've mentioned this many times, i refer to the f1technical forum a lot. it can be chaotic (80% arguments), but the remaining 20% is packed with interesting info, especially in the car threads where arguments are fewer (the team threads are a mess lol)

Monza GP '23 // Charles' entourage nearly mows down Fred, then Charles checks Fred's pulse after that teammate battle 😂

F1 Fic Secret Santa - fic rec list

Merry Christmas or happy December 25th to you all - here are the amazing fics from our Secret Santa exchange (in no particular order, just the order they're in on ao3!).

We've got everything from Sewis fluff to Landoscar filth and all sorts in between (Strollonso fans are getting FED!) - if you're stuck at an awkward family Christmas may we recommend hiding and reading some prime F1 fanfiction on your phone...? the only thing i want this year - Lando/Oscar, 8.3k (by @oscarpiastriwdc)

“You can’t spend Christmas alone!" Lando cries in horror. "That’s too pathetic.” Oscar rolls his eyes. “Thanks, mate.” “Come spend Christmas with my family. There’s a million guest rooms and too much food." “Lando, I’m fine spending Christmas by myself. It’s just another day.” “Christmas is not just another day. Food! And presents! Hot chocolate! Pie! C’mon, Osc. You don’t have to be alone. Come with me.” Oscar gazes at Lando, wide eyed and tender. Lando grins, knowing he’s won.

a place to rest your arms - Lando/Oscar, 5.4k (by @vroombeams)

It feels like toeing a line, showing up at Lando’s door without an agenda to hook up.

In Your Warmth, I Forget - Fernando/Lance, 3.1k (by @chaoticnandovibes)

Sharing a room with the very same pilot he just spent hours couped up in an aircraft's cockpit with was definitely not on his list of things to do tonight, but that's where Fernando finds himself. I mean, it could've been worse...

walking to a wedding - Carlos/Max, 4.1k (by @nobrakesdown)

After disappointment over their mutual lack of a role in Lando's wedding, Carlos and Max hatch a brilliant idea - they'll attend it together.

you'll come back when they call you - Carlos/Lando, 9.6k (also by @nobrakesdown, who wrote TWO fics as a re-matcher!!! <;3)

It's been seven years since Lando Norris came back from the fantastical world he was transported to as a child. Now in his first year of college and in his first relationship, he embarks on a new quest - reconnecting with Alex, George, and Charles, the boys who shared his original adventure.

Saccharine Sweet - Fernando/Lance, 4.1k (by @amphibiangeorgerussel)

Working with Lance had been- Different, to what Fernando had been expecting. He’d preempted a lot less casual scenting and minor HR infringements, that’s for one. It’s not bad per se, just not what he’d prepared himself for. - Or, the trials and tribulations of having Lance Stroll as a teammate.

Cat got your tongue? - Fernando/Lance, 2.1k (by @lil-shiro)

Cat hybrid Lance loves to cuddle. That is, if he chooses you. Fernando wants to be chosen (and more, but one thing at a time).

snow angel - Seb/Lewis, 7.5k (by @imnotheretodie)

Lewis starts his 32nd birthday lost in some small town during a snowstorm. It ends with being snowed in inside of a library together with a charming stranger. There's wine, and cake, and dirty secrets, and a warm bed, and little bit of love in the air.

Two Omegas and A Significant Other Kind Of Love - Charles/Lando, 4.3k (by @fire-on-thirst)

Lando and Charles. Two Omegas. Two Omegas who are married. Secretly of course as there would be a uproar if they ever came out however Charles wants to. Charles wants to kiss his husband whenever he wants, hold hands out in the street. He wants that all but it's just Lando that he has to convince.

The Lion, The Brit and the Bed - George/Max, 1.6k (by @landoom)

He can’t believe it has happened like that. It would have made sense, after Baku, high on adrenaline and anger… Not like this. Nearly one month later. Not in Monaco after a night out when they weren’t even drunk. Not in Max’s apartment, with one of his cats looking at them, perched on the chest of drawers. George and Max fucks... Once, twice... Many more times. But what does that mean?

holding onto all those chandeliers of hope - Seb/Mark, 2.3k (by @hurricane-heatt)

Mark’s on his third mulled wine when he speaks to Sebastian for the first time in nearly three years. It’s almost midnight, and they’re stuck outside in the snow.

You've cat to be kitten me - Lando/Oscar, 9.1k (by @amarynas)

Sassy isn't just a regular cat, no. She is the cat, Queen Bee herself, ruling over her two bedroom, one bath kingdom. So she is more than offended when one day a new human moves in without being pre-approved by her.

stuck together - Fernando/Lance, 2.5k (by @abovecalamity)

He was still looking at their joined hands, straight up staring at them. Never before had he thought about how their hands looked together. About Fernando's hands, yes plenty, in numerous different scenarios, but together, never.

The Art of Saying Yes - Valtteri/Lewis, 3.6k (by @manykinsmen)

“So? You’re not obliged to join the cuddle puddle.” Valtteri’s pouting at him, the moustache emphasising the cartoonish downward curve of his mouth. It’s the expression that makes Lewis want to kiss him senseless, climb into his lap and coddle him, smother him with affection until he’s smiling again. Maybe if Valtteri was single he’d have done so, but Valtteri’s got plenty of people to do that for him. He doesn’t need Lewis, not the way Lewis needs him. “Yeah, but—” “Lewis.” Valtteri’s voice drops, his expression suddenly stern. It makes Lewis feel like a school boy caught doing something he shouldn’t have been. A crackle of static runs down his spine, makes him sit up straight, correct his posture. “You’re finding excuses again. Come visit. Next weekend.”

Strange Situation Procedure - Charles/Carlos, 7k (by @ro55ocorsa)

Charles hasn't been feeling right lately; ever since the last race his thoughts have been utterly jumbled, and it isn't getting any better. With the next grand prix on the horizon, he hopes to push aside his brain fog... and a few more curious feelings. Ones he isn't quite ready to address. Ones about his teammate. Unfortunately for him, he's going to have to face it all head on when he discovers just why he's feeling so strange.

Meet/Cute - Kimi/Seb & Lando/Oscar, 1k (by @wolfsbanesbite)

Seb and Kimi hatch a plan to get Lando and Oscar together.

champagne problems - Oscar/Mark, 7.5k (by @papayatifosi)

Mark was proud of Oscar. He’d been proud of the kid since he’d taken him under his wing before his F3 debut. He wouldn’t have taken him on if he hadn’t seen huge potential, and he wouldn’t have kept working with him if he didn’t live up to that potential. He’d won in F3, won in F2, fought with the bitch of a McLaren he’d had at the start of the season and clawed back tooth and nail when half the grid seemed to have a target aimed squarely at his forehead. 9th in his first season was incredible, given the car hadn’t even been competitive until halfway through, given that Carlos seemed to have a vendetta for Lando’s new teammate, given that the hand of God kept trying to strike him down whenever he was doing well. He was a Champion twice before - though not in F1. Mark was certain that more than two titles were in store for him in the future.

Musings in Vegas - Fernando/Lance, 2.4k (by @niemernuet)

Lance struggles with the fact that his best friend doesn't like his boyfriend.

i got some colour back - Valtteri/Lewis, 2.9k (by @eyes-likepilotlights)

“Tea?” Valtteri is holding the mug - Mercedes branded, steaming - gingerly in one hand.  “Tea?” Lewis repeats stupidly. Angela makes him tea, sometimes, peppermint or green. Val gives him a look.  “Yeah. Oat milk.”  He means real tea - the kind that makes him think of clutching styrofoam cups in frigid winter air at karting tracks. Lewis smiles before he can stop himself, watches it spread to Val’s face.  “I shouldn’t,” he says coolly, to balance it out. “It’s the tannins. Bad for you.” But he’s already reaching his hands upward to the mug, warming both palms against it.

Tap the Rhythm - Charles/Max, 4.7k (by @placna)

“To hell with it,” Charles mutters under his breath and dials Max’s number. If there’s one thing worse than being stuck in this hellhole for the holidays it’s being stuck here alone. Or the one where soulmates share a unique song only the two of them can hear.

you can't move on even though you try - Fernando/Lance, 3.2k (by @merenwenformulauno)

Lance is 19 the first time Fernando flees from his bed after the fact and 24 when he convinces him to stay. The inbetween years are more complicated than Lance thinks they need to be.

A Cold, Cold Christmas (Without You) - Seb/Lewis, 2.5k (by @phantomwritr)

He couldn’t remember when everything changed. When he had started perceiving him differently. He only knew, they weren’t friends anymore.

Carol of the Dreidels - Fernando/Lance, 2.7k (by @inejschumacher)

Lance and Fernando take a walk around Central Park during Christmas, then Lance takes Fernando to a Jewish choir

the waiting game - Seb/Mark, 4.7k (by @raviraaa)

Mark is almost in the mood to outright blame Seb for breaking the stupid thing and effectively locking them in here, but not even Sebastian Vettel is that calculating nor desperate for his company for that matter. (Except he is, but Mark doesn’t need to know that.) — snapshots of martian being trapped together over the years

La Paura Del Buio - Carlos & Max, 1.7k (by @jolandax13)

Max has a bad dream after the Russian Grand Prix in 2016, but luckily Carlos is there to hold him

i don't wanna miss you tonight - Charles/Max, 1.8k (by @liamlawsonlesbian)

Before the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Fernando sends Max a tiktok compilation highlighting how comfortable Charles is touching Max. Max can't stop thinking about it.

Like a spark catching fire it don't happen all the time (But when it does it changes everything) - Charles/Lando, 21k! (by @racingorange)

He turned the corner to see George and Alex curled on the couch with a stranger settled in between them. The stranger’s eyes were closed but he didn’t look calm, chest still heaving slightly. He had Charles’ favourite nesting blanket, a thick and fuzzy grey one, wrapped around his legs. Seeing that raised his hackles and he desperately wanted to reach out and rip it out of his grasp. “What is going on here?” he hissed, mostly directing the question at his two flatmates. “This is Lando,” Alex introduced, innocent expression on his face as he stared up at Charles.

fluorescent (kid, adult and everything in between) - George/Alex, 10k (by @anitalianfrie)

When George is five, he falls while playing in the garden of his house. His mum finds him there, crying on the ground and hugging his scrapped left knee, his face red, ugly snot dripping down his nose, and his skin glowing. or George is in love with Alex. He also glows. He tries to cope with both.

Sweet like candy - Kimi/Seb, 1.9k (by @felixsaysstuff)

It was like his body was addicted to Kimi, unwilling to allow any other blood besides his. He used to wonder if it was a matter of blood type, or any other biological factor, or if Sebastian just hated the idea of drinking from anyone and anything else. - A tale of vampires, bad communication skills, and hey, how much you know about soulmates?
