The Prophecy Bonus Content: Las Vegas GP Grid Interviews

This marks one of the final bonus content bits for the Prophecy that I originally wrote for the series! I wanted to explore what other people attending the GP would have to say, as a lot of big moments happen during the week of the Las Vegas GP - some that you saw and some that happened 'off screen' if you will :)

November 21, 2026

[F1 Sports interviews celebrities attending Las Vegas GP] “We’ve got Louis Tomlinson here with us, today. First of all, what an exciting surprise performance just last Wednesday!”

“Yeah it was good fun, really happy I got to support Y/N here. We haven’t actually performed on stage together all that often, so it was nice but also I was shitting myself beforehand, not gonna lie.”

“Have you performed elsewhere together, then?”

“She likes a good karaoke bar, that’s all,” Louis elaborates with a smile. “I cannot confirm or deny having footage of a very convincing performance of “Believe” by Cher.”

“Oh my – well, you’ve put it out in the world now. What’s your go-to karaoke song?”

He narrows his eyes in thought. “Hmm that’s hard! Maybe “I Don’t Wanna Miss A Thing”, Aerosmith? A classic, a classic”

“You certainly won’t wanna miss a thing this race weekend – it’s really shaping up to be a tense race. Who are you rooting for this week? Rumor has it that fellow Brit Lando Norris is your favorite?”

Louis snorts and lets out an awkward laugh. “Oh wow, word travels fast huh? I think he’s got a lot to prove, to be honest. Charles happens to be the other driver that I know quite well, personally, so I’m always rooting for him.”

“Speaking of him, when are we finally getting a collaboration between the two of you? You love a good piano ballad, don’t you?”

He grins, “I think for those type of things you kinda need the element of surprise.”

---------------------------------

“Simone! How exciting to see you here in Las Vegas. You’ve been so supportive of F1 over the past years.”

“Of course, I’m super happy to get to be here – thank you to Levi’s and McLaren for getting me in,” she jokes.

“Who are you rooting for this time?”

“McLaren obviously is looking very strong on track, they’ve been performing well this season. It’d be really cool to see them achieve a double podium.”

“Is there anything else you’re looking forward to? You recently hosted SNL and had Y/N L/N as the musical guest, who performed here just last Wednesday. Word is that she’s back for the race today. Have you run into her yet?”

Simone seems a little startled at the question. “I eh- I don’t know. It’s funny, SNL was the first time I’d met her and she’s so lovely! She’s so talented, I was actually bummed that I missed out on her performance earlier this week. So it’d be great to run into each other again.”

“Did you talk about Formula One at all?”

She laughs. “No, we didn’t. There’s more in life than that, even though it never feels like it on a day like today.”

“More like a night like tonight! What do you love most about the Vegas track?”

“Just the overall atmosphere – it’s a city where anything can happen, on and off the track.”

“You’d know more about it than we do!”

“I’m not so sure, actually.”

---------------------------------

“Well this certainly is a surprise, Sabrina Carpenter everyone. How are you doing?”

“Honestly? I think I feel about as well as you can feel in Las Vegas after having done all the Las Vegas things.”

“All of them? Including a shotgun wedding with an Elvis impersonator?”

She shrugs and winks at the camera. “No comment.”

“You arrived just in time for your friend’s performance at the opening ceremony, how was that?”

“It was so amazing! Y/N asked us to fly out to support her and make this into a little girls trip, and who am I to say no to that? She did great, and I’m really happy for her. The Prophecy is probably honestly my favourite work of hers.”

“Wow, big compliments there from Sabrina! Is this your first F1 race that you’ll be attending?”

She smirks and shakes her head. “I’ve been before. Different team, though, of course.”

“No papaya for you this time?”

“You know, it turns out I’m quite sensitive to them, so I think it’s best for everyone if I stick to Alpine for now. You can’t not love the French, after all.”

“Or the flirty Argentinian driving their cars.”

Sabrina smiles. "No comment."
