1.5

that .5 was extremely generous of me

basically an f1 fanfic (my bet is on verstappen personally, also try to tell me jax isn't literally lewis lol) featuring sincerely atrocious writing, the blandest characters on earth, small mistakes regarding how f1 works sprinkled everywhere (which, as a chronic f1 fan and someone who pays close attention to details, it killed me) and the cheesiest, cringiest 50 pages to finish it off

i'm surprised i managed to get through it tbh i was fighting for my life to not dnf it around the 60% mark

the silly season wasn't silly enough this year to keep me entertaining and this is what happened 😭 but at least the summer break is almost over and good ol' f1 will be back soon, amen
