The Inheritance

Guys, I keep messing up the timeline. So here we go. Christian, Geri, and Mitch find out about Lorenzo and your parents disowning you at your last F2 race. Max finds out about Lorenzo in this chapter (although not written in detail). Max then finds out about your parents in chapter 18 “All For You.” 

This is proof that I listen to my readers :D @dreamy-state-of-mind asked to see how reader bought her cars and this chapter was created! I can't do every ask for an idea but I try to listen to what y'all want!

Y'all are being fed...two chapters in a row (which means the next one won't be out for a little bit - so I apologize!)

Like always comments, questions, concerns, reblogs, and likes are always appreciated! Enjoy!

TAG LIST IS CLOSED

Your hands were in your pockets as you walked around the open room. You had somehow lost Max, Vito, AND Christian. It wasn’t like you meant to walk away, you just did on accident. How could someone know that the foreign car dealership was this big. Well, you would know, but that’s beside the point. 

It was quite cold in Germany. Thankfully, you had packed extra layers, something the men seemed to not know how to do. You were sure that Max would have worn his Red Bull polo if you didn’t mention to Kelly where you were going. Sure, he could dress on his own, but who would want that? 

Your eyes gazed at all of the cars on the floor. Most were the common stock models. Audis, Mercedes, and even Volkswagens littered the area; yet, the cars you were looking for were nowhere to be found. You kept heading in the same direction, hoping to at least find a familiar someone who looked like they worked there. 

Your ears picked up on some German words. Feet taking faster steps, you rounded a corner. Ah, there they were. 

Somehow you completely missed seeing that the Porsches would be in a different room. You gingerly stepped farther into the vast open-ceiling room. Your hand itched to touch them, but you knew better. 

Looking at the cars brought back some great memories of the first time your godfather took you here. Yes, he could have gotten any Italian brand of car that he wanted. Everything was at his fingertips. Yet, he brought 11-year-old you to Germany to get his imported cars. 

Your eyes landed on a familiar model. If you thought hard enough, you could hear the imprints of Lorenzo’s and your laughs as he took you to do donuts in abandoned parking lots. 

“A beauty isn’t she,” a voice scared you, causing you to fall on your ass. Your cheeks burned at the thought of being caught. Yet, when your eyes met familiar friendly ones, the redness left. 

“Hi Seb,” you greeted as you took his outstretched hand that he offered. He pulled you to your feet and into a hug. After you were done, you pulled away to turn back to the car. This time, you let your hand gently grace the older door. 

“Enzo had one,” you simply stated, leaving it at that. Most knew you didn’t like to talk about the man, since it brough on so many emotional memories. 

Sebastian took a couple steps and stood next to you. 

“Do you still have the keys to the garage?”

You grinned up at the German ex-driver. “Of course I have the keys. You know he left me the entire house.” 

He bumped your shoulder, head jerking to lead you away from the car. You followed without hesitation. 

“What do you plan to do with it?” 

You cocked your head in thought. “I’m going to keep it for now. I don’t want to sell it. It’s not like I need the money anyway.” 

He chuckled. “I forget that you’re like a multi-millionaire at 20.” 

You just shrugged. “Not my fault that I was basically his only family. I never asked for it.” Your eyes dropped to the shiny floor below. A hand was placed on your shoulder. 

“I know. I’m glad that you’re well off. Makes me feel better about not seeing you as much.” A sad smile graced his face as he looked at you. 

You tried your best to give him a genuine one in return. “I’m doing much better than I was.” 

“Have you showed Max your vast array yet?” 

“Nope.” You popped the ‘p’. “I plan to soon, actually. I told him that I needed to go to Italy after this.” 

Seb raised his eyebrows, but didn’t say anything else. You went to talk, but familiar voices echoed in the big room. 

“Kid!” 

“Seb?” 

Your head whipped toward the sound. Ah, there they were. 

And they brought an assistant with them. 

Max and Christian looked at Seb in question as Vito brought the German into a big hug. You stood toward the side to watch the two friends reunite. The assistant took this opportunity to approach you. 

“Ah Miss L/n, so good to see you again!” 

“Again?” Max questioned, looking at you. 

The assistant turned to the Dutchman. “Yes. Miss L/n has been a patron at this establishment for years now.” He turned back to you. “I have the two models that you called ahead for. I will lead you to them.” 

The man turned on his heal and began to walk deeper into the room. 

Sebastian was now talking to Vito and Christian, which led to Max walking by you. 

“I didn’t know you’d been here before.” 

You looked up at him with a sly smile. “My godfather bought a lot of his cars from here and would take me with him. Some of the cars at the front are a part of his collection that I donated when he passed. He left me so many, I didn’t know what to do with them.” 

Max stopped in his tracks as you kept walking. Once he got over his shock, he sped up to catch you. 

“So many?”

You placed a hand on his shoulder. 

“Maxie, how much money do you think I have?” you asked, an innocent look on your face.

“Couple thousand?”

You shook your head. 

An eyebrow rose. “A couple hundred thousand?” 

Another shake as a mouth dropped. 

Max looked around before whispering, “Millions?” 

“Bingo. We’re going to tour my house when we go to Italy.” 

You kept on walking, leaving the even more confused Dutchman. 

“House?” 

A few steps more and you had caught up with the group of four men. Christian whistled at the sight of what lie before him. 

“Thank you Mr. Klein,” you shook the assistants hand as you looked at the two dark green cars in front of you. “Did the payment go through well?” 

The man nodded. “Yes it did. Mr. and Mrs. Fischer send their best regards and also thank you for the donation.” 

The four men (minus your manager) gawk at you. Yet, you were too busy beaming. 

“I’m so glad. Tell them that I will reach out the next time I’m here for longer. I want to see their children again, I miss them.” 

With a couple more goodbyes, weird stares, and going over plans to ship your Porsches to Monaco and England safely – you were on your way to Italy. 

Thankfully Sebastian wanted to join, saying something about how he hadn’t seen the house in forever. Which brought on more questioning looks from Max. 

However, Christian had to sadly say goodbye as he had a connecting flight to go somewhere else for business. You promised you’d send some pictures when you could. 

A chauffer had met you at the airport, names written in fancy calligraphy on a starch white piece of paper. 

The man gave you two cheek kisses as you greeted him. 

“Guido! Come stai amico mio?” (how are you my friend?) 

Max couldn’t wipe the look off his face as you began to talk to the older gentleman in perfect Italian. Vito only patted his shoulder. 

“You’ll get used to it. She’s definitely someone to unravel. You’ll get there.” 

The four of you then followed the man to the Rolls Royce that was waiting in the parking area. Suitcases were loaded in, and the three of you were on your way to your house. 

Or, more like mansion/estate/castle that Max found out as the car pulled closer. He turned to you. 

“Kid?” 

“Inheritance Max. Inheritance.” 

Your door was opened once the car was parked. Multiple people came out of the house, wanting to greet you. 

“La mia famiglia! Mi siete manvati tutti!” (My family! I’ve missed all of you!”) 

A couple of the staff took your bags as you walked through the giant doorway. Once you were through, you turned around and opened your arms. 

“Max, welcome to Casa di Lorenzo Alessandrino.” 

Max’s head was in a state of looking upwards as he walked in. He would have held his mouth open, but the interior seemed to demand respect as power and poise dripped from its walls. Now it was turn for Max’s hands to itch, wanting to touch everything.

Once everything was settled, you gave Max a tour as Vito and Seb went to go get some drinks. Your fingers twirled a special key ring as you led Max to your garage. 

You turned to him and gave a smile. “You ready?” 

Let’s just say, Max was not ready to see so many cars. Max let his jaw drop. 

The garage was deep and long, probably housing close to 40-ish cars. Your eyes glimmered as you looked at the older cars that you missed dearly. 

“You can go look you know,” you told Max as you made your way down the little staircase to the floor. Your heels clicked and echoed with each step. Max was quick to be on your tail. The Dutchman made his way quickly to each car, stopping for only a second before getting distracted by the next. 

You hummed as you looked at the empty spot among the Ferrari’s on the back wall. You pointed to it when Max came up beside you again. 

“The only car Lorenzo never had in his collection was the F40. I need to talk to Charles or Carlos about seeing how I can get one ethically. I want to complete the collection, but not pay far more than what it’s worth.” 

Max nodded, soaking in your words. He was about to say something, but a flash of orange caught his attention. His eyes sparkled as he looked at the spaceship looking car. 

“What kind of car is that?” 

You smirked as you gazed on your most prize possession. 

You walked closer and clicked the keys, making the car roar to life only for a second. (You don’t want to give you and Max monoxide poisoning.) 

Your hand ran over the orangey hues that covered the car.

“This is the Apollo Project Evolution.” 

Max looked down at the hyper car. 

“What that a V12?” 

“Yep. A Ferrari V12 to be exact. Three million dollars, one in ten made, over 700 horsepower, and completely street legal. I’d take you for a ride, but I would rather keep this between me and whoever knows about it.” 

You turned on your heel to start walking toward the door where you walked in. “I bought it because it reminded me of the spaceship from Guardians of the Galaxy.” 

Max snickered as he could imagine you at 14-years-old, watching that movie and falling in love with the space craft. Then, he imagined you last year, trying to find out how you could get your hands on it. 

He took one last glance at the big room, before following you back into the house. He softly shut the big door behind him. 

“Does Arthur know about this place?” he asked as he caught up to you, not wanting to get lost. 

You softly smiled at him. “Yes. I brought him here after Lorenzo passed away in 2020. I just didn’t want to be alone. Vito was here as well.” 

Max returned your sad smile. You and Vito had told him about the place on your way here. Tears were shed, hugs were given out, but you’d get through it. 

But then he suddenly pouted at the thought of you not bringing him here earlier. 

You tutted. “Don’t worry, Charles hasn’t been here if that’s what you’re pouting about.” 

That brought an instant grin to his face. You rolled your eyes at his childishness. Soon, you joined Vito and Sebastian in the kitchen. Aperol Spritzes lined the kitchen counter. Your hand reached one, before Vito was thrusting an different one into your hands. You pouted when you realized that yours was probably nonalcoholic.  

Sebastian snorted. “Let the kid have one.” 

“Vito, what do you think they do for podiums? Make sure mine isn’t actual champagne?” 

Vito rolled his eyes and handed you one from the kitchen counter. You quickly smiles and took a sip of the bubbly drink. 

“So kid, did you show Max the garage?” Sebastian raised an eyebrow as he took a sip of his own drink. 

You nodded as you placed your cup down. “Yep!” 

“And the track?” 

“You have a track!?”

[inthedoghousern]

just this once

pairing: oscar piastri x fem!driver!reader

summary: you and oscar are what people would describe as rivals. but a night in monaco, a club, an elevator, and confessions can change everything.

contains: 18+, suggestive content, swearing probably idk, drinking + alcohol, events leading up to sex (?) but nothing too graphic, kinda fluff and angst

5.5k words

a/n: this is too long and there's very little characterization but enjoy i suppose... part II: okay part III: 11:45

You were smiling as you chatted with a guy at the party. The music was blasting around you and the lights were colorful. You were in Monaco, celebrating your first Grand Prix here. Despite being a rookie, you had placed second in the race, an impressive and historic performance, especially since you were the first woman to do it. 

It felt like the whole weekend had been revolving around you. At the track, there was a sea of fans, journalists, and even employees from other teams coming up to congratulate and talk to you. Now here at the club, it was the same, with stranger after stranger wanting a slice of your attention. 

"So how long are you in Monaco?" He asked leaning against the high-top table, with a sly smile on his lips. “We should see each other again.” Before you could answer, you heard a voice behind you. 

"She's cant, we've got more racing to do. It's the job." You rolled your eyes, the familiar voice belonged to no other than Oscar Piastri. 

You and Oscar’s friendship, if you could even call it that, was complicated. What started as kinship during karting years turned into resentment as you made your way up the motorsport ranks together. F4 British Championship, the Renault Eurocup, F3, F2, the two of you were always close competitors, but Oscar always had an edge. You’d be runner-up to his championships, watched as he got a seat in Formula One while all you could do was keep racing in lower divisions and hope you could prove to any team that you would be a valuable driver. 

But now you’ve made it, it’s your rookie season and you’ve finally started to beat Oscar, and it helps when you’re in a Red Bull. Podium after podium after podium, you’ve already blown Oscar’s impressive rookie stats out of the water. As a result, the rivalry between you has only grown bigger. 

“Oh Oscar you actually weren’t involved in this conversation,” you say giving him a fake sweet smile. He claims he can’t stand you, but here he is going out of his way to make your night difficult. Typical. 

You turn back to the guy in front of you. His name was Alex… William…? You honestly didn’t remember and had no interest in finding out, but it was amusing to see him throw himself at you. Amusing that Oscar came over and has to witness it. "I'm actually here for a few more days," you tell him. You pull your phone out of your bag and slide it towards the unnamed guy. “Put your number in. We can set something up later.” The guy smiles, and you fight back a laugh as Oscar still stands at the table with you two. You had no intention of ever texting or speaking to this man again. 

-

The night goes by in a blur. You’ve lost the guy you were talking to earlier and make your way to the bar to order another drink. Your life feels like some sick joke when Oscar slides up next to you and orders himself another round too. “That guy looked like a prick,” he says. 

You chuckle and nod your head in agreement. “Yeah, he did look like a prick."

The media and fans had characterized Oscar as this nice, young, shy guy. But the Oscar you knew was deathly competitive with a bit of a mean streak. 

“Why do you care though?” I ask turning to him, cocking my head to the side. “Care what guys I talk to at parties? I mean, if that dude was Zak Brown, sure, I’d see why you’d stop me from stealing your seat, but….” I taunt. 

"Alright watch it," he said while shaking his head. You roll your eyes, you know that he can’t do anything in retaliation to your teasing. You were the star now, you were his rival [who’s winning] and you were untouchable.

You finish your drink and turn to the dance floor, “see ya Oscar,” you say flashing him a smile. You can feel his eyes burning your back as you walk away.  

-

This club felt like a time warp. As you danced and talked and drank, you saw gridmates and girlfriends walk past, at one point Lando was up at the DJ booth. Your head is fuzzy and you don’t know what time it is. You push through sweaty bodies to the tables surrounding the room, shuffling around to find your things. Finally, you’re able to find your bag, and luckily your phone is still inside, so you make your way out of the club. You need some quiet and fresh air as you sort out transportation back to the hotel. You were throwing in the towel for the night. 

Outside the music was still spilling from the doors, filling your ears with the sounds from the club. You checked your phone, trying to get it to work. Your vision was slightly blurred from all the alcohol, you were probably drunk.

“Hey,” you hear, it’s him, again. Your heart skipped a beat when you heard Oscar's voice coming from behind you. You couldn't help but feel some nerves running through your body. You had just spent the night ignoring him and now he was here. You didn't turn around to look at him, you weren't sure what would happen if you did.

With your phone finally unlocked, you call an Uber. With that task finished, you turn, feeling wobbly, and when you look at Oscar he looks just as drunk as you. “Hey.”

“I’m leaving,” you tell him. 

"I'll leave with you," Oscar responds immediately, sounding annoyed. "Why do you have to leave so soon?" He asked. 

“Leave so soon? We've been here for hours,” you reply. You don’t address his first statement, but your mind is circling the fact he just decided he was coming with you. He didn’t even ask if he could, if you wanted him to, he just announced it. 

"Doesn't mean it's time to go," Oscar said as he stepped closer. He put his hands on your shoulders, his breath smelling like alcohol. "Why don't we go back inside?" He asked. What was he thinking? You didn't pull away, it was the alcohol. You couldn't stop your mind from being hazy, you couldn't help the sensations of his hand on your shoulder. You put your hands on his biceps in response and look at him in the eyes. “No Oscar, I’m leaving.” 

For a moment, everything felt as if it was going in slow motion. Oscar stood there, his hands on your shoulders, as you looked directly at the most beautiful most infuriating guy you had ever known. You spoke firmly, but it was clear that you were struggling. Oscar was drunk and stubborn as always, he wasn't letting this go easily.

“Hmmm?” I muse. My brain is so fuzzy I almost don’t notice his grip on my shoulders tightening. “I’m leaving Oscar. You can share my Uber back to the hotel, go back inside, or do something else. But I’m going.” Oscar said nothing. He was breathing heavily against you, his grip tightening even more. For some reason, his grip felt good.

"I'll go with you," he said, finally, his voice was low. “Alright,” you respond. You stand, he's still holding your shoulders, your hands still on his biceps. You don't know how long passes, but the Uber pulls up to the curb and you both let go of each other. You climb into the back seat and Oscar sits next to you, his body barely a foot away from yours.

The journey to the hotel is mostly silent, but you catch Oscar stealing glances at you.

“Looks like you partied a little hard for P9, no?” You tease. "Shut up," Oscar grumbled, you were pushing him right to his limits. You knew that he was angry, but you couldn't help but poke fun at him. You felt good when you could get one over on him for once. For the rest of the ride to the hotel, Oscar is silent. Every time you look at him, he quickly looks away. It was a side of him that you had rarely seen, the way he looked so unsure and uncomfortable.

-

You both step out of the Uber and walk into the hotel. It's late at night and the lobby is almost empty. Oscar follows you into the elevator, you can feel the heat from his body radiating against you. The elevator doors close and you are in your own little world. He presses the button to his floor: 6, and you press the button to yours: 9. You both stand side by side as the elevator slowly moves up. 

The elevator rises, and just like the car journey, Oscar is quiet. A quiet that feels so much more intimate in this small space with the two of you pressed up against each other. Neither of you speaks, you are lost in the moment. It's almost as if the elevator is going too slow, or too fast? You don't want this moment to end.

The bright lights of the elevator and the presence of Oscar sober you up a little bit, just a little bit. You’re hyperaware of the floor numbers changing, getting closer to floor 6, where you and Oscar will have to separate. Oscar's body felt warm against you. You wanted to grab him and hold him close to you, but it would be wrong. You knew that he would most likely pull away from you. 

This has to be goodbye.

“Why didn’t you want me to leave the party?” you ask. Oscar didn't expect that question. You could see it in the way his eyes widened before they narrowed back to the previous stoic state. "I didn't want you to leave because..." He said before pausing. He took a deep breath before continuing. "I wanted you to stay, with me." He said, his voice quiet. You don’t respond. What Oscar says makes your heart jump into your throat. You weren’t supposed to be having these conversations, you certainly weren’t supposed to be having them with Oscar, someone who you can’t stand. Someone who can’t stand you. It’s the alcohol you tell yourself. 

Ding.

You’re on floor 6. 

The elevator doors open, and Oscar doesn't move, instead, he looks at you.

You look back, your mind is racing a mile a minute. He is just staring at you, waiting for you to speak. You felt the heat of his body, the smell of his breath, and the beat of his heart. The air felt so heavy between you both. “You’re supposed to hate me,” you say quietly. Seconds are passing and Oscar is still in the elevator with you. If he doesn’t get out soon the doors are going to shut and you’re both going to keep going up to your floor. Oscar still wasn't getting off, he seemed lost in a trance. It felt like the world had stopped as you looked at him. He didn't respond to your words, his breath was so close to your face.

“Do you hate me?” you say just above a whisper. You are staring at each other now. The elevator doors close and continue up to your floor, and Oscar’s still in here with you. 

"I used to hate you," Oscar said, his voice was soft, and you could hear no anger in his tone. "But..." he paused, and the elevator continued to rise. The both of you were standing inches apart. "But not anymore." He finished. 

You wanted to grab him. Hold his face. Kiss him. Let him do whatever he wanted. No stop. This has to be the alcohol. It has to be. What would everyone say if they found out you were thinking these things about one of your gridmates? Your competition. Your rival. 

What would happen if you just went for it? Just one kiss. You know you’d both regret it, but just one kiss couldn't hurt...could it?

Ding. The doors open. You quickly step back from Oscar, regaining your senses. You exit the elevator and don’t care to check if he’s following you. You hope he’s not. 

You walk to your room, still not looking back at the elevator. You get to the door and fumble for the hotel keycard in your purse. You can feel the heat rising on the back of your neck as you think about what just happened between you and Oscar. Your hands were slightly shaking, your heart was beating wildly and you felt lightheaded. You finally get the door open and quickly shut it behind you. You stand in the entryway for a beat before throwing your purse down, taking your shoes off, and lying down on the bed staring at the ceiling.

Was he going to say anything to you in the morning? Would he act like it never happened? What if we both act like this never happened? Was he going to knock on your door?

You lay there in bed, your mind racing. The alcohol was slowly fading away from your system, but the memories were still clear in your mind. You were still feeling the heat of his body against yours and the smell of his cologne. You were so conflicted, you should be upset and mad. You shouldn't be enjoying the thought of him coming to your door and saying more. That was Oscar, you hated Oscar, you weren't supposed to want him.

You sit up. You need to go to sleep and just clear your head of this. You wash your face and change, all the while thoughts of Oscar run through your mind. You look at yourself in the mirror, is that what Oscar saw when he looked at you?

You crawl into bed, you are still on a high after the party and the adrenaline from Oscar. You close your eyes, trying to distract yourself. But as soon as you closed your eyes, you could only picture him. You could picture his lips when he spoke, his jawline. You could picture the look in his eyes when he looked at you. Your mind was so focused on his body, what it would feel like, what it would taste like to kiss him. Fuck.

-

Your heart stops when you hear a knock at your door. You don't know what time it is or how long you've been lying in bed fighting sleep. 

The knock came again; louder this time. You get out of bed, your heart beating quicker with every step you take. Was it even Oscar out there? You reached the hotel door. Your breath was shaky, it felt like your entire body was trembling. This was it. Now you were truly in this. You put your hand on the handle, the knocking continued again, more persistent this time.

As you threw the door open, you came face to face with Oscar. He was standing there, in the same outfit as he had been at the party. He was staring directly at you, his breath was warm as he exhaled. You could swear he didn't even blink at this moment, his eyes were just glued to yours.

“Yes?” I ask. "Can I come in?" Oscar says, sounding a little bit nervous, and more sober than earlier. You’re at a loss for words. A few hours (?) ago the only words you exchanged were about hating each other [or rather, not hating each other], and now he was asking to come into your room.

Oscar was still holding his gaze, eyes locked straight on yours. You could see it on his face, there was something he wanted from you, something that he hadn't been able to communicate until now. "Please?" Oscar said, his voice was low. You had never in the 8 years you had known Oscar seen him like this. 

“Okay.” You move to the side, motioning him inside your hotel room. Oscar walks in and for a moment, neither of you spoke. There was a certain level of nervousness in the way he was moving. He didn't make any attempt to get close to you initially, it was like he was waiting for your permission. “What do you want Oscar?” I ask folding my arms across my chest. “Please tell me what you’re thinking, I can’t do this guessing game thing anymore.”

Oscar didn't respond right away, he was trying to decide what he should say. You could see as he processed through every thought, looking at you as if he was holding something back. After a few seconds, the words came spewing out, he didn't want to waste any more time.

"I want you to kiss me. I want to kiss you. I want you. That’s what I want." Oscar finally admitted.

Your arms fall to your sides and your heart skips a beat. Oh my god. Oscar stands in front of you and your body is heating up, your brain is getting fuzzy, this time it isn’t the alcohol. “Oscar I-“ you don’t know what to say. 

It was like time had stopped for the both of you. Your breaths were shaky, the silence was deafening. You wanted to wrap yourself around him. It was all just adrenaline now, just one kiss, that's what you wanted. 

You stand looking at each other. You don’t know how long passes. You want him too. You really want him. You need him. But the rational part of your brain is screaming for you to stop. You can’t be with him, as a female F1 driver what would the world say if you got with another driver? What would your reputation be? They would call you a slut. But as Oscar stands in front of you, those thoughts, those warnings are fading away…

He takes a step closer. You don’t move away. He’s close now, too close, but you don’t care. You could feel the heat radiating from his body to yours. There were just inches between you two now. You didn't care about anything else, everything in your body was telling you yes. It was either now or never, your reputation would be the last thing on your mind in this moment.

He brings one of his hands to the side of your face and leans to kiss you. But your lips don’t meet and he hovers just above. Waiting. He wanted something from you, some signal that it was okay to go for it. You could taste his breath as he hovered above you, how many times had you wanted to taste him? You hadn't realized until now how strong this pull between the both of you was. Even if it was just alcohol, it didn't matter, your heart felt as if it would explode with this excitement.

“Oscar” you whisper. You’re looking at his lips, then his eyelashes, his eyes. 

“Just this once.”

The words left your mouth in a hoarse whisper like it felt too surreal to speak out loud. One kiss wouldn't hurt, you could tell him that was the only kiss you were going to let him have. He let out a small breath, and then the gap between your lips disappeared. He brought his face down, his lips touching yours. You wrapped your arms around him, pulling him close as your lips met his. As Oscar's hands tangled in your hair, pulling you closer, it was just you and him. Nothing else mattered. Just the heat, the desire and the love that had been building deep inside of both of you.

He breaks the kiss and kisses your collarbone, then up your neck, and then he’s right next to your ear. “Yeah, just this once” he whispers. You let out a shaky breath, his voice sent shivers down your spine. What was happening? Every minute seemed to take so long in the moment. The way Oscar's voice whispered in your ear, it felt like a sweet melody. If this was wrong, you would never know. The only thing you knew for sure right now was how much Oscar wanted you, how much you wanted him.

His mouth was warm, you could feel the moisture of his lips press against yours. You grab the hem of his shirt and he puts his arms up as you pull it off of him. When you drop the shirt aside you can’t help but stare at his body. His chest, his abs, his arms. You had seen him shirtless before, it was inevitable with the years of training you two had done together. But seeing him tonight like this, just the two of you, it was different. 

As you stared at him, he was just staring back, his hair was messy from the way you had pulled his shirt off. It felt like this was the only moment in the world.

His kisses were gentle like he was still trying to get a feel for the moment. You were in each other's grip as if you were locked together. The heat was building up, and you could feel your body burning up. Oscar's hand moved to your top now, pulling it over your head slowly, letting you feel every sensation as it fell to the floor. The way he looked at you as it fell to the ground...it was as if his eyes were going to burn a hole into you.

You’re usually quick with comebacks. Confident. But as you stand in front of him, you’re not insecure, but you have nothing to say. No words to taunt him with, it felt like your usual self was far removed from what was happening right now. 

You had never stood in front of Oscar so vulnerable before, his hands running up your body, his mouth kissing your neck. He was treating you like you were the only thing in the world that mattered, the way he looked at you it was like he was seeing you for the first time. Oscar lies you down on the hotel bed. Hovering over you, one of his hands on your hip, the other pressed beside your head, holding him up. One of your hands is resting on your stomach, and you reach the other up and run it through his hair. “I’m sorry,” you say. “I’m sorry for being so horrible to you. I’ve acted…” you trail off. Why are you saying this? Why right now? It was the alcohol, it had to be. 

As he leaned over you, his breath was warm on your skin as he listened to everything you were saying. Your heart was beating so rapidly, you couldn't stop the words coming out of your mouth, but for once, you felt vulnerable in the right way.

"Don't-" Oscar said, pulling away from you slightly. "You don't need to apologize. We’ve both been… I don’t know…Everything has just been building for years, it got out of control, us. Whatever us was- is. I think I’ve always wanted ‘us’ to be this though."

His words make your head spin. "Us". "Out of control". "Always".

Always makes you laugh though, as you think back to when you first met Oscar.

“You wanted this during our Arden days? At 14?” You know shouldn’t joke right now, but everything is happening so fast, and you grasp for some sort of control over what you're feeling. 

He smiled back at you, he couldn't help smiling. One thing about the way you and Oscar's relationship worked, was it was always full of constant bantering and jabs at each other. It felt right to joke now. 

"I didn't say that," Oscar said, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "But sure, you were attractive back then, even if you were a brat. Yeah, I did look at you during those days." 

A grin spreads across your face. What would 14-year-old you say if she knew you had Oscar Piastri on top of you in a hotel room after you podium in Monaco? She would be horrified. The realization was almost enough to pull you out of the moment. It truly was insane. The way Oscar was looking down at you, touching your body, it definitely did feel surreal, as if this was a dream.

"You remember those days?" Oscar asked, his voice soft and low as he shifted down to rest on his elbow, bringing his face down closer to yours. “Of course.” You say, looking at his face. He’s so beautiful. “You wouldn’t let me win a goddamn race.”

He let out a laugh, he couldn't help it, the humor of the situation had gotten to him.

"Damn right I didn't... are you still bitter about it?" He said mockingly, he was back to his usual self. “Nope,” you say with a smile, “because who just got second in Monaco? My first time driving that track in Formula One by the way.” Even in this uniquely intimate moment between the two of you, you are bickering. But it’s perfect. 

"Yeah yeah..." Oscar rolled his eyes. "You got lucky that's for sure, this race was a mess." He was back to being himself, the cocky, arrogant version that you were always arguing with. But you felt a different type of chemistry with him right now compared to the racetrack, this time it felt deeper than your usual bickering. You laugh and your hands are on his face again. Now that you have him like this, above you, relaxed, yours; you never want it to end. 

You smile and start tracing the freckles and moles on his face with your finger. Just this once. That was the deal. You want to savor every minute of this moment. A moment that after tonight, can never happen again. 

Oscar's eyes drifted down and he watched as you traced his face. It felt a little too perfect, the way you traced around everything...the way his breath felt on your skin...the way he was looking down at you with intent, his attention was just on you.

"I like this," Oscar finally said and his voice was hushed.

So do I. Is what you want to say. But if those words come out of your mouth everything becomes too real, and you’re not sure if you could ever stop what was already snowballing between the two of you. You simply hum in acknowledgment and continue to trace his freckles down to his arms, down to his wrists. You even traced your fingers along the top of his fingers. 

It was like nothing else existed at this moment, it was just the two of you, your bodies, and the heat. The heat was all that mattered. You wanted to see all of him. Commit. Go all the way. But even now you were mesmerized: his bare chest, back, stomach. You want to run your fingers through him. 

Oscar could feel your breath trailing on his neck, the feeling of your fingers trailing down his body, along his chest, and down his stomach. He felt as if any more of him was exposed to your touch, he would fall apart. He was like a hot glass ready to shatter, a moment away from cracking. He was at a loss, he couldn't even think of the next thing to say. All he knew was that he needed more.

Oscar looked at you, his eyes seemed to be filled with pure desire. He was leaning closer to you now, he was only inches away, his breath was touching your lips. His hand brushed past the clip of your bra, teasing every little part of you. Your back, your arms...he was taking his time with this. “It’s okay, you can…” you trail off. Yet again, you’re too embarrassed to say it. You can take the bra off. You hope he gets the hint. 

The smile on his face was almost cruel as he looked down at you. Was he really going to take this all so slowly and deliberately? He paused for a moment and then he slowly undid one of the clips. He did it so slowly and so precise, he was taking this at such a methodical pace, he wanted you to feel every. single. moment. A part of you wants to complain. How slow he was being. Both of your lives were filled with speed, in the cars, outside the cars. But most of you doesn't really care that he's taking his time. Tonight was the only night you’re allowing yourself to be with Oscar like this, might as well drag it out. 

He did the same thing with the next clip, and then slowly pulled down one of the straps. You did wonder how long he was going to take, it felt like your bra was not supposed to be an obstacle, but Oscar was making it one, on purpose. He had turned even such a simple task into something that felt so intimate.

The moment your bra finally came off a whole new feeling of powerlessness washed over you. You felt even more exposed than before. Your skin felt more sensitive, and everything felt more real. Each movement from him felt like it had double its usual meaning. Your breath caught as he pulled your body closer to him. The pressure of his body against yours was making your head spin. You felt so close to him, the warmth between the two of you was palpable. With each of his kisses, you could feel yourself growing even more desperate for him.

You could feel his finger tracing the outline of your shorts, slowly moving towards the waistband, finger hooking around the elastic. It was happening gradually, so it hit harder when he finally pulled down your shorts. Your underwear was the last barrier, and if it came off, this would officially be something that could never happen again. You were lying under just a layer of clothing. He was staring down at you with his intent gaze. You could feel every move of his, every muscle shifting, his breath hot on your body.

“You too, yeah?” You say with a nervous, breathy laugh. Your hands travel to his pants. And he sits up and leans back a bit, you sit up as well, and start unbuttoning them. It was almost comical, how slow you were both going in this moment. But it was also incredibly intimate. The two of you were both teasing each other in a game of cat and mouse. He was taking it in steps, he wanted to tease, to play, to show you how much he wanted you.

Your hands began unbuttoning his pants, inch by inch, you were both working in unison in the slow teasing. When you finish and start to pull the zipper down, Oscar quickly stands up to take the pants completely off. He wastes no time in getting back on top of you. You smile and hold back a laugh. 

His hands are on either side of your head and he’s looking down at you again, you two start laughing. If it was like this one night, how would it have been with you two together all the time? Would you have always been like this? A playful, teasing relationship, where you both were always just messing around, playing jokes on each other.

The two of you are so close, his boxers and your underwear are the only barrier between you now. You are one step away from the edge, one step away from doing something you can never take back. But you also wanted to take that step. It felt so close to happening. It was like your bodies were talking to one another, they craved to touch, to be pressed against each other. Each breath, each movement it felt as though you wanted to become one with each other.

The way the two of you were looking into each other's eyes, you could tell it was just a moment away. Oscar leaned in close to you, close enough to breathe on your neck, “Are you sure?” He asks. You nod and don’t say anything.

He chuckles as you nod. "You're so sure?" You smile and roll your eyes. He’s such an asshole. “Yes, I’m so sure.” Even with your response dripping in sarcasm, it’s set your feelings in stone. You want Oscar Piastri. 

Was it the alcohol in your system, was it the buildup of years of tension between the two of you, a mixture of both? It didn't matter, the only thing that mattered now was this very moment, this very moment with you and Oscar on this hotel bed. It was like the rest of the world would cease to exist, all that was important at this moment was the heat between the two of you, it filled you with such a warm, almost calming feeling. You both knew that this was it, there was no going back. But just this once you could let it happen.

Now that Ollie has a seat in f1 Paul will never get a chance

He will win the championship this season (as it stands now) and can’t stay another year in f2

It’s a waste of talent that f1 teams are ignoring him. I agree with the anon about the Ollie seat in my opinion he deserves it more

hmmmm that's a very interesting way to look at it..... idk why ollie getting a seat would mean that paul won't ever get one? the haas seat wasn't paul's to get anyway, it was obvious that was going to go to a fda member (esp ollie).

it's also waaaay too soon to say anything about how the championship will end up. we've only gone through half of the season, and while it's true that paul is doing very well and is very consistent, this does not in any way mean that he's a done champion already. he's only 11 points ahead of is*ck, and only about 40 points separate the top 5. a lot can happen, 40 points in 7 rounds (when you can get almost 30 points from just one round) is not too crazy.

though im a paul lover through and through, i am lowkey wishing that he doesn't win so he can stay for another year. unless something crazy happens, like he's picked up by another academy (williams? alpine? idk what would be good tbh) and gets offered a seat like right away, i really want him to get more experience in f2. i agree that it's a waste of talent to overlook him, but im also sure the f1 teams arent ignoring the f2 series as a whole!! i know they're keeping track and discussing things in the teams.

plus, i think it's important to remember that f1 isn't the only good racing series out there. sure, it's the big grand goal, and getting a seat there would be lovely – but let's face it, it's extremely hard to get in. it only has room for 20 drivers. would you really argue that paul is one of the 20 best drivers in the world today? plus, the last two f2 champions don't have any seats yet. nor do any of the people who came close to them in the ranks. theo was shunted from indy, fred is doing wec but is currently being pushed to the side to make room for toto wolff's second son, and felipe is still waiting for that seat that will never be free because it belongs to the owner's son.... is it really that crazy that paul doesn't look to be having an f1 seat next year?

[georgegraphys]

As some people are now brave enough to yap and undermine George's feeder series record:

1. British F4, GP3, F2 rookie champion

2. P3 in a new team Hitech for F3EU, scoring 52% of the scores for Hitech and bring them to place 2nd in the constructors 

3. Youngest McLaren Autosport BRDC Award Awardee

4. Youngest BRDC Superstars member

5. GP3 highest % points achievable of all time (59.946%, still holds the record even in F3 era)

6. GP3 highest points margin of all time (79 points, still holds the record even in F3 era)

7. 1/4 F2 driver that achieve a pole hattrick 

8. F2's highest points achieveable of all time (F2 not GP2 before any SVandoorne fans come here and yap)

9. Hungaroring unofficial circuit lap record holder (records achieved when he is still an F2 driver)

10. Competed as a guest driver in Eurocup FR 2.0, earned pole, fastest lap, and won the race

11. Have only been beaten by his fellow feeder series teammates once : Nyck De Vries (Formula Renault Alps)

12. Set his first circuit fastest lap record in Jerez with 1:32.279 during the 2017 GP3 round

13. Beat professional DTM drivers during first time testing, topped Mercedes and Audi testing times

[princessofmerc]

I may have hyperfixated on Mr. Beige’s statement and spent my day doing some numbers. And, other than the three years 2019-21 where George was in the slowest car on the grid: when has Lando ever beaten George?

Let’s compare their 2018 season where they spent a year in equal machinery. Don’t come at me with “Lando was preparing for F1 already with McLaren!” as if George wasn’t already doing sim and test duties with Mercedes the year before that.

Comparing them at each event: George is ahead of Lando 6 times more often (21 - 15), if we add in championship positions we come to George winning 8 battles (28 - 20). It’s also interesting to know despite leading the championship for 5 rounds, Lando Norris was the third driver to get 200 points. The only reason why he came in 2nd instead of third is because Alex had a horrible Abu Dhabi that year.

George had 2 more podiums (11 - 9), 6 More wins (7 - 1), 3 more fastest laps (4 - 1) and 4 more poles (5 - 1). Despite having more performances outside the points (3 - 2) and more DNFs (3 -2).

If Mr. Beige meant to say Lando is the better driver all that he has going off of that season (where Lando was technically the more experienced driver in the F2 cars) was that Lando has 1 more P2s (4 - 3) and 3 more P3s (4 - 1), which s honestly nothing when you take to notice that even added George has more wins alone than Lando comes out as a winner in this conversation.

Out of the 3 podiums Lando and George shared, George was in front of Lando every time. Please Zac tell us again when and how Lando beat George in equal machinery.

Attached you’ll find the spreadsheet I made for this as well as images of all the George and Lando podiums. (feat a Max Günther win in Silverstone)

Tip of the Week: Explaining Excel Formulas

Just under its surface, Microsoft Excel offers a massive variety of functions and features…far more than we could ever realistically cover in this blog. However, there are a few that stand out as relatively essential, particularly to businesses. Let’s go through these functions, starting with how to use them.

How Excel Formulas Work

Once you have a cell selected, you can type one of these formulas into the cell or the formula bar. Keep in mind that all Excel formulas begin with an equals sign, before the type of formula is specified and the appropriate data points are identified. If properly formatted, your spreadsheet can thereby be automated to do a huge variety of tasks based on the data you’ve input.

  Here are some common formulas that you could find useful in your business’ operations.

=SUM()

This allows you to total up the value of the cells you’ve selected, making it far simpler to add up long lists of numbers. Let’s say you had a list made up in Column B, beginning at Row 2 and ending with Row 46. To total these numbers, you’d type up =SUM(B2:B46), and that cell would display the total as a result.

=AVERAGE()

In the same vein, =AVERAGE does the same thing, except it produces the average amongst those selected cells. =AVERAGE(X1,Y2,Z3) would give you the average of X1, Y2, and Z3.

=CEILING() and =FLOOR()

These functions allow you to round numbers to the nearest multiple of significance that you’ve established. Dictating =CEILING(F2,5) with F2 being populated with 368 would round up to 370. On the other end of the spectrum, =FLOOR(F2,5) would round down to 365.

=CONCATENATE()

Excel can also track changes in text too, with =CONCATENATE allowing you to tie different text strings together. For instance, if G7 read The 3-2-1 Backup Rule and K12 read helps to ensure your data backup is safe, entering =CONCATENATE(G7,” “,K12) would tie the phrases together and give you The 3-2-1 Backup Rule helps to ensure your data backup is safe. You can also format the formula as =CONCATENATE(G7&” “&K12) for the same results.

=NOW()

This formula will populate a cell with the current date and time, which helps you keep track of when your data was put into the spreadsheet.

=TODAY(), et alia.

There are a number of functions that do a similar thing to =NOW(), such as:

=TODAY(), which populates a cell with the current date

=DAY(TODAY()), which populates a cell with the current day of the month

=MONTH(TODAY()), which populates a cell with the current month, represented as a numerical value between 1 and 12

=TIME(), et alia.

In a similar vein, various functions allow you to track the exact time that data has been added to your spreadsheet.

=TIME() inserts a set time, so long as you format it as a serial number with the hours, minutes, and seconds, which will be converted into a standard format. So, =TIME(13,41,28) would produce 1:41 PM.

=HOUR(NOW()) populates a cell with the current hour as a value between 0 and 23 (12 AM to 11 PM).

=MINUTE(NOW()) does the same with the current minute, between 0 to 59.

=SECOND(NOW()) does the same with the current second, again, between 0 to 59.

=VLOOKUP() and =HLOOKUP()

Vertical lookup and horizontal lookup enable you to seek out a specific value in one column or row and produce the data that is associated with it. Let’s say that you have a table that outlines your business’ assorted costs, perhaps giving you the total, how much is invested into different aspects, and such. These Excel functions allow you to select certain data points as a reference so you can ascertain the relationship between different values.

=IF()

Using =IF() gives you a quick and easy reference to check whether a set condition is true or false in reference to your data. Let’s say you’ve calculated out the returns on investment that some of your business initiatives have produced. Using =IF(), you can generate a clear yes or no answer to whether or not an initiative has seen the returns you wanted it to. Maybe you wanted to weed out any initiatives that saw less than 2% ROI, with the ROI of each occupying a cell in Column E. Using =IF(E1>0.02,”Yes”,”No”) and dragging that formula down to match the cells in Column E will give you an at-a-glance reference of whether or not one of your efforts was worth it.

=COUNTIF() and =SUMIF()

The more data you have, the more challenging even simple tasks—like taking a tally or adding up the values—can be. =COUNTIF and =SUMIF simplify this process for you.

=COUNTIF() allows you to set conditions by which selected cells will be counted. For instance, if you wanted to count how many months you had sold widgets out of the data present in Column J of the sheet, =COUNTIF(J1:J12, “widget”) would give you that total.

=SUMIF() operates in a similar way, although it adds any numbers that match the conditions you’ve set, rather than just counting the instances. So, we could determine the total number of widgets sold during our established timeframe by using =SUMIF(J1:J12, “widget”, K1:K12), provided that Column K was populated with total widget sales for each month.

2024 Baku Stats

Piastri secures his second Grand Prix win, Leclerc fails to convert pole to a win for the 20th time and Colapinto scores points for the first time in his career. Here are the facts and statistics from the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

PIASTRI WINS THE 2024 AZERBAIJAN GRAND PRIX

Oscar Piastri won the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, taking the second Grand Prix win of his Formula 1 career. It made the driver of car number 81 the 81st driver to have won multiple rounds of the World Championship since it began in 1950.

Piastri is the seventh different driver to have won at Baku City Circuit in eight Formula 1 races to date at the track. This was the first time Piastri has scored a point in Azerbaijan.

McLaren become the third team, after Mercedes and Red Bull, to have won at Baku City Circuit. They are also the eighth different constructor (and seventh different team) to have finished on the podium at the track.

Piastri’s win made the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix the 13th consecutive race in which a McLaren driver has finished on the podium. It equals the team’s second-longest podium streak in their history.

Piastri was voted Driver of the Day for the fourth time in his Formula 1 career.

ON THE PODIUM

Charles Leclerc and George Russell joined Oscar Piastri on the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix podium. While Piastri became the 13th different podium finisher at the track, Leclerc and Russell became the sixth and seventh drivers to take multiple top three results in Baku.

This was the first Formula 1 podium made up entirely of F2 champions – and the third to be made up exclusively of GP2 and F2 champions, after the 2015 and 2024 Belgian Grands Prix.

For the fourth year in a row, Charles Leclerc failed to convert Azerbaijan Grand Prix pole position into a win. This was the 20th time that Leclerc has taken pole and not won the race, seeing him move ahead of Nelson Piquet to fifth on the list of drivers who’ve had the most failed pole to win conversions in Formula 1.

Leclerc finished on the podium for the fourth consecutive race. This is the first time since 2022 that he has finished on the podium in four successive races.

Scoring his 39th podium finish, Leclerc equalled Sergio Perez for 24th on the all-time list of most Formula 1 podium finishes.

Leclerc equalled Ferrari’s best result in Azerbaijan, with the team previously finishing second in both 2016 and 2018.

With both Ferrari drivers leading laps in the race, the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix was the 500th Grand Prix which Ferrari have led.

George Russell’s third place finish at the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix saw Mercedes move ahead of Red Bull as the team with the most podium finishes at Baku City Circuit. This was the team’s seventh podium finish in Azerbaijan.

McLAREN LEAD THE CONSTRUCTORS’ CHAMPIONSHIP

McLaren had never finished in the top four at Baku City Circuit prior to 2024. With Oscar Piastri winning and Lando Norris finishing fourth, McLaren finished with both cars in the top four.

Norris set the fastest lap for the tenth time in his career – and did so for a third consecutive race. It is the 35th time in Formula 1 that a driver has set the fastest lap at three consecutive races.

Norris made up 11 places in the race – the most he’s gained in a single race since moving up 12 positions in the 2023 Mexico City Grand Prix.

As a result of the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, McLaren lead the Constructors’ Championship for the first time in over ten years, since the 2014 Australian Grand Prix. Ths is the first time in 55 races – since the 2022 Miami Grand Prix – that Red Bull do not lead the Constructors’ Championship.

McLaren lead the Constructors’ Championship by 20 points – their largest lead since leading by 24 points after the 2012 Chinese Grand Prix.

IN THE POINTS

Max Verstappen finished fifth in the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, making this the 60th consecutive race weekend in which Red Bull have scored a point. They are only the fourth constructor, after McLaren, Ferrari and Mercedes, to have scored points in 60 successive Grands Prix.

Having finished sixth at the Italian Grand Prix, this is the first time that Verstappen has finished outside of the top four at two races in a row since the 2021 British and Hungarian Grands Prix.

Fernando Alonso finished sixth in the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, recording his first top six result since the Canadian Grand Prix.

With seventh place, Alex Albon recorded his best result since finishing seventh in the 2023 Italian Grand Prix. Having finished ninth last time out in Monza, this is the first time Albon has scored points at consecutive races since the 2023 United States and Mexico City Grands Prix.

Finishing ninth, Lewis Hamilton became the first driver to score points at Baku City Circuit on seven occasions, moving ahead of both Sebastian Vettel and Sergio Perez on the list of drivers with the most points-scoring appearances at the track.

This was the first time Hamilton has gained ten or more positions in a Grand Prix since gaining 14 places in the 2022 Italian Grand Prix.

Ninth place is Hamilton’s worst result since the Chinese Grand Prix, where he also finished ninth.

Hamilton maintained his record of being the only driver who has completed every racing lap to date at Baku City Circuit.

Hamilton also maintained his record of scoring points each time he has started a race from the pit lane. He finished third from the pit lane at the 2014 Hungarian Grand Prix and finished fourth from the pit lane at the 2017 Brazilian Grand Prix. He is the first driver to score a point having started in the pit lane since Lance Stroll finished seventh from the pits in the 2023 United States Grand Prix.

ROOKIES SCORE POINTS

In their second Formula 1 starts, Franco Colapinto and Ollie Bearman both picked up points.

For Bearman, this was his second points-scoring appearance, having scored at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix with Ferrari. Bearman becomes the first driver in Formula 1 history to score points with two different constructors in his first two Formula 1 starts.

Bearman scored Haas’ first points in Azerbaijan since 2017, when Kevin Magnussen finished seventh.

Colapinto is the first Argentine driver to finish in the top eight since Gaston Mazzacane at the 2000 European Grand Prix and is the first Argentine driver to score a point since Carlos Reutemann at the 1982 South African Grand Prix.

Colapinto has now scored more points in two races than Logan Sargeant did in the previous 37 races and has scored more points in two races than Sargeant and Nicholas Latifi did between them in the previous 69 Grands Prix.

Scoring 10 points in total, this was Williams’ largest points haul since the 2021 Belgian Grand Prix, where the team also scored 10 points in the rain-shortened race. The last time Williams scored more than 10 points in a single race was at the 2017 Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

This was the first time in their history that Williams finished with both cars in the top eight in Baku. The 2016 European Grand Prix is the only other time that both Williams drivers have scored in Azerbaijan.

Colapinto is the third driver to record the first points of his career in Azerbaijan after Charles Leclerc and Brendon Hartley both did so in 2018.

THE OTHER FINISHERS

Nico Hulkenberg was running tenth until being overtaken by his team-mate just before the race-ending Virtual Safety Car was called. He finished 11th for the seventh time this season.

With Daniel Ricciardo finishing 13th and Yuki Tsunoda retiring, this was the first time since 2019 that the Red Bull junior team failed to score a point at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

For the first time in his career, Zhou Guanyu reached the chequered flag at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

Finishing 15th, Esteban Ocon was the only driver to record the same result in the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix as he did at the track in 2023.

THE RETIREES

Yuki Tsunoda was the first driver to retire from the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, retiring for the second race weekend in a row. The retirement brought an end to Tsunoda’s 100% finish rate at Baku City Circuit.

Lance Stroll was the second driver to retire from the race, recording his first DNF since crashing out of the 2024 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

The race came to a dramatic conclusion as Sergio Perez and Carlos Sainz collided on the penultimate lap. Perez recorded his third DNF of the 2024 season – his first since the Canadian Grand Prix. Meanwhile, Sainz recorded his second DNF of the year, also his first since Canada.

This was the first race in which two of the top four starters failed to finish since the 2022 Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

Stroll and Sainz’s retirements saw them equal Daniil Kvyat and Max Verstappen as the drivers with the most retirements in Baku. This was Stroll’s third DNF in the last four races at the track.

Sainz’s DNF was the first for the driver starting third on the grid so far this season. Fifth is now the only grid slot to score points at every Grand Prix to date in 2024.

Bernedoodle Puppies & 9 Facts You May Want To Know

 A glance at Bernedoodle Puppies

Bernedoodle puppies are a popular designer dog breed that combines characteristics of the Bernese Mountain Dog and the Poodle. These puppies have grown in popularity due to their cute and fluffy appearance, as well as the fact that their fur does not cause allergies. Dogs captivate people all over the world because they make excellent family pets and friends.

History

Where the breed originated

The Bernese Mountain Dog and the Poodle were purposefully bred together in the early 2000s to create the Bernedoodle breed. The goal was to create a dog that possessed the best characteristics of both parent breeds, such as the Bernese Mountain Dog's loyalty and the Poodle's intelligence and allergy-free coat. The breed became well-known and popular due to how adorable it looked and how well it behaved.

What distinguishes Bernedoodle Puppies from other Bernedoodle breeds?

A Bernedoodle is typically the result of a cross between a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Poodle. However, there are some distinctions between dogs of the same breed. The various generations, such as F1, F1b, F2, and so on, demonstrate the level of hybridization and genetic makeup. Each generation may have different traits and coat types depending on how the parents mated.

Characteristics

External appearance

Poodle and Bernese Mountain Dog physical characteristics are shared by Bernedoodle puppies. They typically have a wavy or curly coat that sheds little and is often hypoallergenic, allowing allergy sufferers to live with them. They can look different from generation to generation and from parent breed to parent breed. They are usually strong, have eyes that show a lot of emotion, and appear friendly and easy to talk to.

Character traits

Bernedoodle puppies are said to be friendly, loving, and good with people. Most of the time, they get the Bernese Mountain Dog's gentle, loyal personality as well as the Poodle's intelligence and trainability. They are said to be very adaptable, good with families and children, and eager to please their owners. They enjoy being around people and spending time with their family.

Temperament

Bernedoodle puppies are calm and even-tempered, making them an excellent choice for families and individuals looking for a dog to keep them company. They are usually good with children because they are patient and kind. Socializing them when they are young helps them grow into well-adjusted, friendly dogs who are at ease in a variety of settings and with a variety of people and animals.

Size, weight, and life expectancy

Bernedoodle puppies can be different sizes, weigh different amounts, and live different amounts of time depending on the breeder and generation of the cross. They can range in size from extremely small to average. Miniature Bernedoodles typically weigh between 11 and 22 kilograms (25 to 50 pounds), while standard Bernedoodles can weigh up to 32 kilograms (70 to 90 pounds). Their average life span is between 12 and 15 years, but this varies by individual.

People education and training

Early education and socialization are critical.

If you want your Bernedoodle puppy to grow up to be a well-behaved, well-adjusted adult dog, you must train and socialize it while it is still a puppy. Training them when they are young helps them develop good habits, learn basic commands, and get along with people and other animals. They should go to different places, see different things, hear different sounds, and do different things during socialization. This will help them grow up to be confident and well-rounded individuals.

Suggestions for training methods

When training Bernedoodle puppies, positive reinforcement works well. They are intelligent and eager to please, which allows them to learn quickly. Reward-based training is extremely effective. This is when you use treats, praise, and play to elicit the desired behavior. Training sessions are most effective when there is consistency, patience, and gentle direction. You can also help them learn and socialize with other dogs by enrolling them in puppy classes or hiring professional trainers.

Problems with people's behavior and how to solve them

Bernedoodle puppies frequently exhibit behaviors such as biting, jumping, and excessive barking. To stop them from chewing, you can give them chew toys or divert their attention to something else. Jumping can be stopped with consistent training and positive reinforcement methods. You can stop your dog from barking excessively by training him, determining what motivates him, and treating any underlying causes, such as boredom or anxiety.

Taking care of business

Common diseases and symptoms: Bernedoodle puppies are susceptible to the same health issues as Bernese Mountain Dogs and Poodles. Hip dysplasia, elbow dysplasia, eye problems, and some genetic conditions are among the most common health issues. Regular vet visits, a balanced diet, exercise, and proper grooming are all essential for maintaining their health and detecting any problems early.

Dietary requirements

The food requirements of a Bernedoodle puppy vary depending on its age, size, and activity level. It is advised that you feed them high-quality dog food formulated for their size and age. It's critical to monitor their weight and adjust their food portions accordingly so they don't gain weight and their health remains optimal.

Exercise necessities

Bernedoodle puppies require physical and mental stimulation by playing and running around. They get the exercise they require through daily walks, playtime, and cooperative games. However, you must consider their size and energy level to ensure that they do not become overtired. Training and puzzle toys can also be beneficial to their overall health.

Personal hygiene and grooming

Bernedoodle puppies' coats must be brushed frequently to keep them in good condition and from becoming matted. Long-haired dogs may require brushing more than once a week to remove loose hair and keep it from becoming tangled or matted. A professional groomer may be required to make their coat look nice. It is also necessary to clean and trim their ears, teeth, and nails as needed.

Having children and reproducing

When breeding Bernedoodle puppies, their health and happiness should come first. Responsible breeders ensure that their breeding dogs receive the necessary health checks so that they do not pass on genetic health problems. They ensure that the puppies are well cared for and that their breeding dogs have all of the necessary health clearances. It is critical to conduct research and find reputable breeders who are concerned about their dogs' health and behavior.

Where can I get and buy an animal?

If you want to buy or adopt a Bernedoodle puppy, you should do a lot of research and choose a reputable source. Reputable breeders are concerned about their dogs' overall health, behavior, and well-being. They look after their breeding dogs, teach them how to get along with other people, and monitor their health. The best thing to do is visit the breeder's facility, meet the puppies' parents if possible, and ask questions about how they breed, how they test for health, and how they care for the puppies in general.

It may be easier to find Bernedoodle puppies with the help of online platforms and websites that connect people looking to buy puppies with reputable breeders. However, you should exercise caution and thoroughly investigate any online sources before purchasing anything from them. Look for breeders who have positive reviews, are open about how they raise their dogs, and are concerned about their dogs' health and happiness.

You could also consider getting a Bernedoodle puppy from a shelter or rescue organization. Many organizations assist mixed-breed dogs, such as Bernedoodles, in regaining their health so that they can be adopted by a caring family. Contact local rescue groups, animal shelters, or breed-specific rescue groups to see if Bernedoodle puppies are available for adoption.
