vro0m’s rewatch - 148/310
2014 Abu Dhabi GP
HERE WE GOOO FINALLY as always I'm so done with everything when I reach the end of a season phew. Let's end this.
According to Brundle, Nico said he could've slept better and Lewis looks nervous and Anthony and Nicolas have confirmed to him that he is.
JEV is 10th. Magnussen is 9th. Raikkonen is ahead of Alonso in 7th. Jenson is 6th. Brundle says he's probably starting his last race? Kvyat is 5th. Massa is 4th. Valtteri is 3rd. Lewis is 2nd, it's Nico on pole again.
Seb and Daniel were excluded from quali because it was discovered they had flexing front wings, which is against the regs. So they were to start from the back of the grid. But the team had to change their front wings to make the cars legal to race which was a parc fermé violation so they started from the pitlane instead. Good job RBR (not).
Crofty says Nico needs to win the race and finish ahead of Lewis and hope for his title that someone finishes in-between them. Brundle says he said "I'm relying on Lewis coming up with some ideas" and then turned to Lewis and smiled at him while Lewis "had a thousand yard icy stare." Crofty reminds us that although Nico had more poles this season (10 vs 7) he converted less of them into wins (3 vs 6). However, Lewis has DNFd twice from the lead in Abu Dhabi. 
Formation lap… 
And they're racing. 
UNBELIEVABLE! Wait, I need to rewatch that I can't believe my eyes. LEWIS TAKES THE LEAD! Right there! Almost still on the grid!
Tumblr media
He's about two cars' length ahead of Nico in the first corner, that's unimaginable! What a start! Loads of people going wide here and there at the back. There's been some contact. But at the end of the first lap it's Lewis 1.2 from Nico from Massa from Jenson from Raikkonen from Alonso from Kvyat from Valtteri from Hulkenberg from Perez. Magnussen says he has damage. 
Both Alonso and Kvyat overtake Raikkonen for P5 and P6. But Alonso says he wants to pit and so he does. Valtteri also overtakes Raikkonen, for P6. Jenson is called in as well. Raikkonen pits. Alonso starts his journey up the field by overtaking Kobayashi for P15. Seb is up in 12th btw. Now 10th. Bono tells Lewis his stop will be soon, they just need to clear the window as there's a Williams in it at the moment. Nico is told they will extend his stint a little. 
It's lap 10 already. Lewis is 2.6 ahead. Massa P3, Valtteri P4, Hulkenberg P5, Perez P6, Vergne P7, Daniel P8, Magnussen P9, Seb P10. Lewis is called in. Really good stop, 2.7, 21.8 total. Valtteri pits in response. Hulkenberg gets a 5 second stop and go penalty for pushing someone off track. Nico pits. 2.6! 21.7! That still puts him 3 full seconds behind Lewis. Daniel overtakes JEV for P6 but they almost collide in the process. Nope. JEV got his place back. Valtteri overtakes Seb for P9. And Daniel overtakes JEV for P6 again! Massa pits from the lead. Nico sets the fastest lap. The gap is now 2.4. It's gone down by a lot… Valtteri overtakes Magnussen for P7. Yellow flags. It's Kvyat, being pushed off the track and out of the way. DNF. Nico is told the plan is to keep the gap to Lewis manageable as they plan to go longer than him. The gap is 2.3, it's not really going down at the moment. Nico sets the fastest lap. 
It's lap 20. Lewis is 2.7 ahead. Then the order goes Massa still P3, Daniel up in P4, Valtteri, Magnussen, Seb, Jenson, Alonso and Raikkonen for the top 10. Magnussen and Seb pit. Wait. The gap is up to 7.3?! Oh he's lost over 3 seconds in the last lap he must have had a problem… Losing engine power he says, and the answer is "yep copy Nico we can see it". Shortly after he's told ERS has failed. They're trying to fix it. It's dramatic though, the gap is over 10 seconds now. It's great for Lewis but if that's how it ends, it'll be a bit anticlimactic, you gotta admit. And Massa is closing on him. 2.5 seconds away now. His engineer then tells him still no ERS "so all the brake energy is coming from the rear brakes…" Nico gets a bit angry and cuts him off "but it feels like there's more than that! It's literally only the brakes on the rear or something." The engineer says "okay, copy that" and Nico adds "so investigate that now please and tell me what I can do." And he's told again "okay, copy that" and he adds still "it's not just ERS that's not there, it's actually holding back too." And again "okay, copy that". Daniel pits. Alonso pits. Raikkonen has pitted. OH! THERE'S A CAR ON FIRE! It's Maldonado. That's another DNF. He walks away without one look back while the marshals put the fire out. Massa is now gaining extremely fast on Lewis. 
It's lap 30. There's a lot of fighting in the midfield but at the front it's Lewis, 10.5 seconds away from Massa. Nico in P3. Then it's Valtteri, Perez, Daniel, Hulkenberg, Vergne, Seb and Alonso. Magnussen pits. Lewis' pace is going down?! Oh god. On lap 31 Massa has already gained a full second on him. What is going on?! Not both cars, right?! Please? 8.6. Daniel overtakes Perez for P5. Lewis pits as Nicole and Nicolas watch from the garage. He's out right behind Nico! Ted has asked the team if he had a problem as well and he's been told no. And he very easily gets ahead of Nico, and immediately starts building a massive gap. Now it's Valtteri overtaking Nico. Tbh, it's sad. Not a great way to finish the season. Nico is called in and told he'll need to do a "manual pull away". We don't hear it but I read on the transcript he says he didn't copy that and to tell him what it is. Here's the answer, I have little to no idea what it means : "OK so go RS, but don’t drop the levers. Just pull away as you would do leaving the garage. So engine power will be lower because you have no turbo. So just be aware, completely different procedure pulling away. It will be difficult to pull away. Use the same revs but just more throttle. You won’t have the boost to help you away." It's a slow stop. 4.7. He's out in P7 behind Hulkenberg. Valtteri pits. Nico : "How am I looking for that position finish that I need in case Lewis drops out?" – "It’s not good at the moment Nico." – "Well what the hell does that mean, what do I need to do on pace?" – "Just drive flat out. That’s all you can do Nico." Drama. And then Seb overtakes him for P7. 
It's lap 40. Massa is still in the lead at the moment, 14.6 seconds ahead of Lewis, himself 25 seconds clear of Daniel. Valtteri is not far behind him but he's been told to manage his tyres as Daniel is supposed to pit once more. Perez is 15 seconds down on them followed by Seb. Jenson is a bit further down not too far from Nico in P8. Then another gap to Alonso and JEV. Nico : "advise what's going on? The car switched off and now the throttle is all over the place." I feel so bad for him really. I mean I'm very happy I get to see Lewis win another title but I'm sorry for Nico, it’s such a bad way to lose. Perez and Seb are fighting for P5. Nico has gone wide. Perez has pitted. Lewis sets the fastest lap of the race. Hulkenberg overtakes Alonso for P8. Lewis : "Please don't turn up my car, I'm comfortable, I can pick up the pace if I need to, don't turn up the car please." The gap is down to 11.4. The team is worried that it won't be enough to keep Massa behind once he's pitted and on fresh tyres. Lewis is worried about the car giving out. Massa is called in. He should be out about 10 seconds behind then. Yep. 11.2. Lewis sets another fastest lap. Bono tells him Massa is on the supersofts and he needs to keep his pace up. Kobayashi retires. Nico asks what position he can hope to finish in. He's told possibly P5, if he can keep Hulkenberg behind. Not great. And he can't. Keep him behind, I mean.
10 laps to go. Massa is 9.8 behind Lewis. 8, 7.7! We might get a fight to the end then, just not with who we thought. Daniel pits from P3, which puts Valtteri back in P3, and Perez overtakes Alonso for P8. 7.2. 7. 6.9. Damn it's closing fast. Seb overtakes Alonso for P9. 6.7. 6.5. 
It's lap 50. So Lewis is leading by 5.9 over Massa, Valtteri in third. Daniel P4, then Jenson, Hulkenberg, Nico, Perez, Seb, and Alonso. 5 laps to go. Seb overtakes Nico for P8. The gap at the front is 4.8. Lewis is going to have to either pick the pace up or defend with all he has. Daniel fastest lap. 4.6. "OK Lewis, Nico looks to not be a threat now, Nico not a threat now, so we can fight for this." Nico indeed is letting cars pass him. He's gonna DNF. I can't believe this is how it ends. He's out of the points. 4 laps to go. 4.2. 3.8. 3.6. 3 laps to go. The gap stabilised? No. 3.2. 2 laps to go. Massa is not gaining as fast anymore. And Nico is indeed called in. He says he wants to go to the end. They allow him to. Lewis' family is getting ready to welcome him and celebrate. The highs and lows. 
There we go. It's the final lap of the season. The gap to Massa is widening actually now. He's gonna win everything. 
It's the end of the race! 
Lewis wins his second world title ahead of the two Williams! Nico ends up P14. 
Somehow it's Prince Harry talking to him. "Lewis, thank you very, very much for not letting or making the British public sweat. You are an absolute legend, well done mate." Then it's one of my favourite radio messages ever. Just because of the genuine surprise in his tone of voice. "Woohoo! World champion! Oh my god! I can’t believe it. Thank you so much guys! Woo!" He actually said that before Prince Harry talked to him and I hate that they edit radio messages that way back then.
Cue the donuts. He stops and signals with his hand.
Tumblr media
A marshal brings him a flag. In the meantime, I read on the transcript, Nico asks "can I do donuts?" and he's told "the guys would rather not, I think it'll be a safety issue" and actually? It truly breaks my heart for some reason.
Tumblr media
But here goes Lewis! And he's so happy! 33rd win, which puts him in front of Alonso. Crofty thinks he won't care about that too much but I disagree. Now we finally hear Bono, which was of course actually the first message he received : "Get in there Lewis! Eleven race wins, 2014 world champion!" 
And then Jock Clear : "Great job, Lewis, great job from Jocky, brilliant stuff mate, world champion." 
And then Paddy : "Congratulations Lewis, 2014 world champion, first Mercedes-Benz champion since Fangio! And I’m going to hand you over to Prince Harry." And we don't hear that message because that's the one we've heard before. 
Jenson does donuts as well. He deserves it. 
Paddy apologises to Nico now. He says he drove like a champion all year, and he'll have another go next year. 
Anthony is with Ted. Ted says "he's gone and done it again" and Anthony says "Amazing." and he laughs! He says what he feels is relief. "What a fight this year, what a fight!" Ted asks if he had any doubts because there were tough times during the year. "You know something, you always obviously have doubts because you never quite know what's going to happen. But you know, if you apply yourself decently and honestly, things happen. And the right things happen all the time." 
Lewis throws his headrest out the car, stands on the cockpit and waves his flag.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He hugs his brother and Nicole and some girl I’ve never seen. Nicole kisses his helmet. She cries. Lewis hugs his dad. Lewis kisses his step mom. His engineers hug him and yell.
Tumblr media
I love that you know? I love it when people are so happy it overflows out of them and they get overcome by it and they become pure bodies and they completely embody that emotion and yell and move and touch in such a specific way that is only pure joy.
Tumblr media
Look at how tight their hands are gripping him, oh my god
He signs the camera lens and throws the pen in the air.
Tumblr media
Ahhh this is so perfect. I can't wait to see it happen again in present days. He goes up the stairs with Toto and they're holding each other all the way up.
Tumblr media
He slips his fingers through his visor slit as he walks the hallway to wipe his tears. Oh. As he comes up to the table after his weigh in, he looks down and Toto smiles at him. He wobbles, and sits down. Toto stops smiling. Lewis rests his elbows on his knees. It was really a tough year. Massa gets here. Valtteri taps his back, offers his hand, they hug.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Did he help him up? Lewis seems so weak all of a sudden, completely wiped out by the emotions. He finally takes off his helmet. He carefully stays away from the camera shoved in his face. But then he turns around a little and you can see everything in his eyes as always. He kisses his helmet. He's crying.
Tumblr media
He joins the three other men and they all look at him with wide smiles. Toto hugs him. More like : he engulfs him in his long arms.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lewis looks so small.
Tumblr media
Massa shakes his hand. "Well done," he says. I really like Massa. When you think back to their situation in 2008...
Tumblr media
Outside, Bono is waiting for him. 
Oh. Oh fuck. Ohhhh don't do this to me. Nico has come into the cool down room to congratulate him. I can't cope with that.
Tumblr media
He holds him by the neck, and Nico smiles and I wonder what he might have told him then, to the one who lost. 
It's time.
Tumblr media
Toto is so tall he stands as high as Lewis on the podium even though he's on the lowest step.
Tumblr media
Lewis is crying and it's making me cry very much.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then they spray the champagne and he drowns Nicole and his dad in it from the platform.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Toto gets a hold of his champagne bottle and empties it on his head,
Tumblr media
and then Massa comes and empties his,
Tumblr media
and then Valtteri joins as well.
Tumblr media
And it’s time for the photo.
Tumblr media
And after all of that, Brundle comes to interview them. He says we've seen how emotional he got and can he try to put it into words? He brings the mic to his mouth but just shakes his head. Then he says in a shaky voice : "I'm a bit at a loss for words, really, but… I think really, one thing I wanna say is a big huge thank you to all the fans coming out all this way. All the flags, all the caps, everything… It made such a difference this weekend. Also to my family I love you guys, thank you so much for coming. I really, really appreciate it, my mom back home… And my team who throughout the year did an incredible job. Without them I wouldn't be here today so… I can't really explain how much this means, it means even more than the first one, it feels like it's the first time, and… I just… I feel so blessed."
Brundle asks him to speak about the race, what a start he had to the grand prix! Lewis giggles. He points to someone in the crowd.
Tumblr media
"That's my guy down here, gave me a start, it was uh… like a rocket. It's probably the best start I've ever had. And… I knew from then on straight away that I was in the lead and obviously going into the race I had a couple of different options of which, of how to approach the race… if I was behind then… we'd see how it goes to the first stop, but if I was ahead then I knew I had to really really race and… you know the car was fantastic we really got it spot on for the race obviously qualifying wasn't perfect but we got it ready for the race so… that's what's most important."
Brundle says he then heard on the radio that Nico had a problem. What did he think? "You know, Nico put on an incredible fight throughout the year. He was a phenomenal competitor. You know, we, we met each other (the crowds starts cheering and applauding) back in 2007 uh… 1997, and we always said it would be amazing to be racing in the same team and fighting for a world championship. He did an amazing job today and very sad obviously to know that he, the car wasn't quick enough so we can fight in the end but… still, he was graceful enough to come up to me just now".
Brundle asks if he minds sharing what they said to each other after such an intense season, adding that it's been difficult between them from time to time. Lewis fumbles with his words. "Yeah I mean he just, as I said he just came into the room just now, very very professional. And I just said you know, fantastic– he said you drove really well so, and same for him you know all year long he drove incredibly well especially qualifying so, hat off to him."
Massa congratulates Lewis during his interview, he says well done and he's done a fantastic championship with his team. Then Lewis and Valtteri comment on the trophy together for the rest of his interview.
When Brundle moves on to Valtteri, Lewis embraces Massa again. Then they talk during Valtteri's interview.
Tumblr media
Finally Brundle asks Lewis what's going to happen now for him in the next few hours, days, months. He says he really doesn't know and will take it one day at a time. "This is the greatest day of my life, so…" He thanks again everybody, he says 2008 was a special time in his life and the feeling he has now is way past that. "It's the greatest feeling ever". He ends on a "thank you so much everyone, thank you!"
And that was 2014.

Thursday Drivers Press Conference | Abu Dhabi GP | 2014
Q: Sebastian, how do you see the co-operation with Kimi? Is it easier for you than with anybody else? SV: Yes. [laughter]
JB: You even talk like him. SV: I think he probably replies the same if you ask him. [Someone in the audience: A Kimi answer!] SV: Yeah. It’s what he told me, just before. No. I think yes. Why? Because I think Kimi is uhm... probably the least complicated driver in the grid, uhm so uh, in terms of, you know, performance on the track, I think when we talk about the skills Kimi has, I don’t think there is a single person in the paddock who doubts his skills, uhm... including myself, but from a personal point of view, on a personal level, I think uh very straightforward. I don’t expect any complications because I think we have a good relationship, but more so I think we have uh, yeah, great respect for each other which I think is always very healthy to deal with any sorts of situations coming up.

“Max,” Daniel calls to him from the bedroom, just as he is rinsing the shampoo from his hair. Not wanting shampoo in his eyes or his mouth, Max keeps them all firmly shut.
“Baby?” Daniel says again, louder.
The warm water is a gentle relief running over his sweat sticky skin, nowhere near the scalding temperatures Daniel sets their shower to at home. It’s why Max had insisted that they clean off separately, the Austin heat far too much for Max to endure boiling water too, despite Daniel’s pouting and dramatic insistence that Max couldn’t just ‘fuck and flee.”
“Yes,” he calls when all the suds are safely sliding past his shoulders, but he didn’t need to shout. When he opens his eyes he sees Daniel leaning against the doorway with a smirk, still wearing his unbuttoned satin shirt, cowboy hat and nothing else. His wedding ring sits heavy on his finger, and Max thumbs over the matching one on his own hand.
Max’s come is a shiny presence he can still see smeared between Daniel’s thighs.
The sight of him makes Max’s dick twitch. Daniel notices and his grin only widens.
“Baby,” he says again, too sweet. “Baby, why is your most recent Google search is it weird that my husband saying yeehaw makes me come?”
And just like that, Max suddenly longs for a hot shower, an excuse for why his cheeks start to burn red.
“Why are you snooping through my phone?” He demands, forcing himself not to turn away casually and instead keep rubbing the hotel’s own body wash under his armpits.
“I wasn’t snooping,” Daniel says easily, “I was looking to get us some ribs delivered, my phone died at the track, remember?”
Max makes a noncommittal noise because vaguely he does remember Daniel saying he needed to put it on charge. That was before Max started pawing at him the moment the hotel door shut behind them though, and then it had been forgotten by both of them.
There’s just the noise of the extractor fan whirring for a moment, but Daniel doesn’t move. When Max sneaks a glance at him, he’s still leaning against the door frame looking amused.
“Sooo.” He drawls out the word in the stupid Texas accent that Max wishes he didn’t find so strangely sexy. “Are we going to talk about this, little lady, or-“
“Nope,” Max says firmly, turning off the shower.
Daniel nods. It makes the lights of the bathroom catch on his chain and Max- Max really wants to fuck him again.
“What about the one below it?” He asks, “Daniel Ricciardo Austin 2023 photos?”
“Nope,” Max says again, stepping out of the shower and reaching for his towel. He’s smiling now too, because he knows that beneath Daniel’s teasing that one will have made him happy to see.
“Okay,” Daniel says, then he unlocks Max’s phone. “What about how to ask my husband to-“
“Daniel,” Max interrupts, taking the phone from his hand and putting it into the empty sink. “Do you want to read more of my internet history, or do you want to get back on the bed and play good cowboy, bad cowboy again?”
Daniel grins, takes the cowboy hat from his head and puts it onto Max’s. When his arms wind around Max, the silky fabric of his shirt presses cool against Max’s shower-warm skin, his nipples.
“Well, when you put it like that,” Daniel says, leaning in to put his mouth on the skin just beneath Max’s ear. “Yeehaw, baby.”
Max laughs and pinches Daniel’s ass, at the same time as his dick twitches again. Backing him out of the bathroom, towards the bed, his phone is forgotten in the bathroom.
Google never had all the answers when it came to them, anyway.

i kinda have a basic idea Brocedes lore, like the timeline and everything. but were there moments post Monaco 2014 till the end of 2016 where Lewis and Nico had some nice and genuinely fun moments or were they all awkward and distant with each other?
the answer to this is complicated. well, my header gif happened months after monaco 14, in Abu Dhabi 14. so this is nico congratulating lewis for winning his 2nd championship (1st with merc) and its way after lewis said "we're not friends." so like all things brocede they're.. Like That (whyre u holding a man you're not friends with by the nape of his neck 😳😳😳🤨)
Tumblr media
Ladies and gentlemen, a short look into the not so distant past...
obviously every year as the silver war progressed, tensions arose but that didn't mean they couldn't stand to look at each other. those 3 years of early merc domination era HAM-ROS were on every podium, and they were pretty happy spraying champagne on each other as I've documented here, and here
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is a video from December 2015 stars and cars where they're being very playful and teasing each other
this is them wishing each other happy birthday in 2015
Tumblr media
this is nico on lewis' snapchat
this is nico playing football on lewis' snapchat (you can hear lewis snicker)
this is lewis lowering nico's chair on purpose in 2015
this is nico umm pretending to hold a bottle for lewis to pee in while DR live slug reacts Hungarian Grand Prix 2016
this is them giggling together at a sponsor event in 2016
this is them teasing each other about being old in 2016
there's definitely podiums and cool-down rooms where things are Tense and they're Avoiding Eye Contact/Talking to each other, depending on how the race went. but there's also them amused and laughing together such as mexico 16 and aus 16
we all remember the iconic nico throws cap at lewis but the crazy part is this was them hugging moments before,
and this is them partying together after that
this is AD16 and lewis is saying he likes presscons when it's just him and nico 🥲
this whole press con is ahhhhhh. pain
lewis' own words on how they were:
Tumblr media
this isn't an exhaustive list, there's many more, but rather so you have an idea that although the popular narrative is once lewis said we're not friends post monaco 14 they never looked at each other again it's not exactly true. things never was like they're childhood besties again, but they also didn't outright despise each other despite what fandom might speculate. but that doesn't mean things weren't awkward and tense too, esp in merc meetings post race! cause it was! but they also had some sweet and fun moments in between :) such is the bittersweet nature of brocedes

HELLO
i was wondering if you can do max as a singer and not a driver
i wonder if he can be MARINA and he interested in f1 and goes there to watch the races
HIHI!!!
Singer!Max huh? Ok I see you.
And mother of god did figuring the logistics of this AU hurt my brain :')
Ofc Max would retain his interest in F1 heck I might even make him kart when he was a kid but drop out for angsty lore reasons. Naturally this would make his relationship with his father very strained and almost nonexistent if it weren't for the fact Max still hasn't blocked his number. He spent most of his kid/teenage life with his mum and sister in belgium and thrived in music classes, having a natural sense of rhythm and being able to hear the layers in a song. He still watches F1 on tv and becomes a Daniel fan after Spain 2014 - Daniel's first podium, though he also is team Rosberg when brocedes happens (no reason other than I like Nico Rosberg)
As for his music type honest to god I can see why you would say MARINA as those lyrics can definitely be Max coded but genre wise and looking at her performing idk if that fits the Max vibes bc I wanna keep him from going too OOC. But not in a total stray from the idea of MARINA, I propose... Conan Gray. Still kinda indie vibes (and I love indie) and there's a lot of desiderium songs as well as full on pop bops and hopeless romantic stuff which give people some good emotional rollercoaster concerts. However these songs and albums release date will be manipulated to it my narrative because trying to align a calendar with an interesting plot and those songs just was too much...
For Daniel and any race settings, I am thinking of using the 2021 season. Which I'm sure you all are thinking: Silly, what would be the 2021 season without Max in it? Wouldn't it just go to Lewis without a fight? And I thought long and hard about it, looking through the grid and reserves to see who if anyone should take the seat that Max originally had and... it's Daniel. You heard it here first folks this baby is a Daniel never left Red Bull fic too. Using this Mr V's Garage's video, I borrowed the simulated 2021 season between Norris and Sainz and made it Lewis and Daniel (who will ofc win) with 3rd place going to Checo (because i like checo) and 4th Bottas. As for Abu Dhabi... there's no way it won't be controversial come on.
I imagine a meeting between Daniel and Max would be him getting paddock passes after saving up and ends up being recognised by Daniel at the Belgian Grand Prix. At this point he has he has had Kid Krow out for nearly 2 years after saving a crap load of money from royalties and a birthday gift from his sister he finally had enough money for a paddock pass over a grandstand ticket (but holy fuck those things are expensive). He meets Daniel who is like "holy shit you're Max Verstappen! Wearing my DR3 hat?" and Max feels like holy shit is very much correct because Daniel knows who he is?!?! Queue both of them having a fanboy moment and Daniel admitting he cried when he heard heather for the first time. But Daniel has to be pulled away so he gives Max his number and invites him to the garage (much to christian's chagrin but hey, number one golden driver championship contender privileges). Max totally nerds and Daniel thinks its cute and the mechanics are surprised by Max's knowledge.
They go on "friend-dates" to get to know each other properly and surprisingly (to them not to us) they click really well. Daniel invites him to GPs and Max invites Daniel to music video sets (they sneak Daniel into an MV and if you look close enough you can see him in the background) and a lot of trips to the recording studio. The internet being the internet picks up on this and are like AIN'T NO WAY OMG WORLDS COLLIDING all dramatic like that. There's even TikTok edits and a small tumblr community (hi) about them.
Then one day Max goes on an interview and is asked about Daniel. "He's probably the best person in my life right now, outside of work and family. Gosh, I've been a fan since 2014, and my sister will tell you I yelled pretty loudly when he won in Canada that year. But the Daniel you guys see in media is only half the story. He's kind and considerate and generous and a really comfortable person to be around and I am glad I bumped into him in Spa. He's been my rock as I work on my newest album."
Hashtag maxiel starts popping off a lot more mainstream and Daniel calls Max after the interview to tell him how sweet and lovely he is and as he gushes Daniel has the 'oh I love him' moment, like actually in love and not just a how a fan would. He doesn't say it, of course, but the penny has dropped.
For Max, the 'oh I love him' would be when they're back in Daniel's hotel room post race (that Daniel won ofc) and they're sat on a sofa in front of a quiet TV playing some sort of movie when Daniel falls asleep on Max's shoulder. Max looks down at him and just knows 'i love him' then and there. It's a quiet realisation, and one he is content with.
As for how they get together, it's one of the times Daniel is in Max's recording studio listening as Max sings, completely entrapped. When Max finishes and sits down next to him, he asks what Daniel thinks Daniel doesn't hesitate to say he thinks Max is amazing and that the song will be a hit, but suggests a few tweaks to the instrumental. Max takes this seriously and appreciates the honesty, kissing Daniel's cheek as thanks. It was the way Max looked at him and gently held his face that has Daniel sitting there for a moment before going fuck it and properly kissing Max.
They don't announce their relationship until Daniel after wins his second championship in 2022 but spend the rest of 2021 and the entirety of 2022 soft launching it and teasing. Daniel posts photos of Max hugging him in Abu Dhabi 2021 and lots of photos of them hanging out in winter and summer break. The F1 media catches Max in the paddock and Red Bull garage a lot and Daniel at the Superache tour in late 2022 (what about the tour? what tour? the early 2022 world tour? yh that didnt happen I'm just adding a couple songs from there into the superache setlist). Max also posts a video of Daniel lipsyncing to Overdrive whilst holding a deodorant can and standing on a bed.
The actual announcement spooks the F1 world more than the music one and at first it's a lot for them, the questions and the prying, the demand to know it all and of course the homophobia but they get through it all fine and dandy.
Oh and Jimmy and Sassy? They give Daniel the seal of approval the moment he shows up offering pets. And that was the only outside opinion that ever mattered.
{I may flesh this into a full on fic, but I also might not but I liked your idea anyway and wanted to put the concept I created into the world! I hope you like it.}
