LIGHTS OUT AND AWAY WE GO
No one imagined that in 2023 something like this would have happened.
The driver's safety had evolved, thanks to Jules Bianchi, no one expected another fatal death after his. Sure injuries, but certainly not a death.
Logan and Oscar didn’t expect it. You had been one of, if not the most, determined person they have ever met.
It was only your rookie year. Just one year.
You three had known each other since karting, and through the ranks. Constantly battling each other and hanging out.
Then you guys made it to Formula One, everyone’s dream. It was unbelievable.
You had made history, well- and Logan.
Oscar to McLaren, Logan to Williams and you to Alpha Tauri.
It was finally coming together.
The season went well for the most part, you had scored some points, not many, but that was expected.
Although there was one race you were dreading, Qatar.
“Guys…it’s way too hot out for this..” You say with a groan, leaning into Logan.
“Yeah so don’t lean on me..” Logan mutters out, gently shoving you off him. In response you let out another groan, just leaning back into him.
“Shut up..” Oscar mumbles out, scrolling through his phone, looking at something.
“Hey Osc..we qualified well, right? Do you think we could get on the podium?” You ask, looking over at the Australian.
“Maybe”
That night you guys didn’t get on the podium.
“Y/n, do you need to retire?” Your engineer asks, concern evident in his tone. You didn’t sound good, you didn’t feel good and you weren’t driving well.
“No! No- I’m okay, I need to do this..” You respond, head already starting to spin as you grip at your steering wheel.
“It’s okay to retire, Sargeant did..”
You wish you had listened.
“No I’m okay”
You weren’t okay.
“Right, just let us know if anything is wrong”
Everything was wrong.
“I will don’t worry”
You didn’t.
The ringing in your ears got louder, you could feel the sweat start to drench your balaclava. It was disgusting.
You could hear the thump of your heartbeat, even your breathing as you gasped for air in the humid atmosphere.
Your hands started to shake, dark spots forming all around as you let yourself relax. You needed the rest, didn’t you?
Your foot stayed on the pedal, it didn’t matter, you were all the way down to P17 (last with the dnfs) with seconds, actually minutes, separating you from the pack.
In the moment you felt peaceful, well you had passed out, but it was peaceful.
You couldn’t hear the worried shouts from your engineer, or the questions from the commentators.
You couldn’t see the barrier you were about to crash into at full speed.
Numbness. That was the one word to describe it.
Every driver pitted. The race was off, really it should have been off in the beginning, it was too dangerous and it showed.
Logan freezes in his place, still in his FW45 in the garage, watching the TV show your AT04 in flames and in pieces.
The TV cut to black, it was too visual.
Oscar didn’t know what to do, actually no one did.
Maybe it would be another miracle? That’s what Haas hoped.
It wasn’t. It didn’t look like it.
It dawned on Oscar and Logan, they had lost you.
Logan didn’t get to confess his love.
Oscar didn’t get a chance to share a podium with you.
It didn’t feel real. Everyone was silent.
Logan unclenched and clenched his fists, tears forming in his eyes as his throat tightens up, he wanted to scream, he wanted to help you. He didn’t want to be useless anymore, he didn’t want to take up space.
They knew what happened. They knew the halo couldn’t have saved you this time. They knew.
“Hey Y/n…it’s been a year..we miss you, everyone does..” Logan says, voice cracking as he tries to contain his emotions.
“Osc and I are doing well…he’s doing much better than me but hey- you’d probably do way better than us..”
He lets out a sigh, “I miss you Y/n. Oscar does too, he didn’t want to come visit, didn’t want to bring down your spirit, whatever he means by that..”
“I had so many things I wanted to tell you..” He mumbles out, voice starting to break once more. Logan takes in a deep breath, blinking away his tears. “I wish- I wish I could have held you in my arms once more..”
“If only you knew..” He whispers out, finally setting the flowers down by the barrier.
“Osc and I will do better for you, we’ll always be with you Y/n, we’ll always visit you..” Logan says with a sad smile, looking longingly at the barrier before he walks away.
Everyone missed you. Even the guys on the grid you didn’t talk to.
They wanted to witness you make history.

So… hi? Bel is back and it's just to complain, and since I have more characters here than on Twitter, I take advantage of it.
I hate, HATE, the people who are upset that Williams and Williams fans are "celebrating" Logan's P11 and that no one is criticizing it (false, but I won't talk about those right now). Hey, sorry for not being the type of team that has a toxic work environment and that its fanbase supports its two drivers!!!!
"It was thanks to the abandonments" well you know what? he didn't abandon, so what's that for? His team did not ask him to retire the car and he had a clean race without accidents. It bothers them that a driver is well positioned "thanks to abandonments" only when it is Logan, because a CERTAIN driver is still praised for having been in a worse position than Logan in his rookie year after the same number of abandonments, BUT IT'S OKAY.
"But without Alex's DNF, he would have at least reached the points" SHUT UP, you don't know that, already in the simulations it showed that this circuit was not suitable (we were the tenth car) while AT was the SIXTH. I'm not going to lie, I thought about it, and I like to think that if Alex didn't get points at least he was going to hold Yuki a little longer, BUT IT DIDN'T HAPPEN, Haas thought of ruining the possibility of both Williams fighting for points, and just thinking about assumptions DOES NOT WORK.
People's excuses for criticizing Logan have me tired, not to mention the ones used to insult Williams.
And I won't talk about the FW45 and its 200 problems, now it stops working in straight lines, so Las Vegas will be difficult, BUT NOBODY WILL TALK ABOUT THAT, because it ruins their narrative that "Logan is bad" and that of "Alex needs a teammate to help him."
I KNOW that Logan's next season will be better (yes, I'm manifesting), he will already be used to the car, he spent all this year watching the preview of the FW46 too, so he already knows what he will face.
That's all, I hope the next time you read me it will be to celebrate Logan's contract renewal or points on his part (better if it's both).
