INDYCAR DRIVERS AS ROMANCE BOOK TROPES

summary: I give romance tropes to my favourite funky indycar men. if y’all actually want to see me do any of these, please tell me in the comments 🫣

dedicated to my bestie @magnummagnussen who helped ghostwrite and give her ideas on a few of the tropes! (sorry for not including sting ray bestie, I have his trope to callum!)

pato o ward

reverse grumpy sunshine!!! pato is a bright ball of sunshine and in an ideal romance book he would pair with a girl who is a little grumpy (just a little bit) and cynical about falling in love and then dear sweet patricio would sweep in and show her just how magical being in love can be and show her that soulmates are real and life doesn’t have to be doom and gloom all the time

josef newgarden

single dad x nanny trope! I can see this playing out as recently widowed josef (probably not the right word) struggling to balance being the only caregiver for his son next to his racing career. cue y/n, the nanny he hires to watch after his son while he’s away and competing. he’s scared to fall in love again because he’s still grieving what he once had, but his son grows attached to y/n and how could josef not fall in love with someone his son loves so much?

kyle kirkwood

second chance romance! he lost her once, and now that she’s back in his life he won’t give her up!! the way I see this one playing out is that maybe they were together before kyle made it to the big leagues, back when nobody in america knew his name. but while she was deciding which ivy league scholarship to choose, Kyle is thinking about his career. she gives him an ultimatum, and he picks racing. so she goes to her big fancy school and forgets about him. but when a family tragedy brings her back to florida and she comes face to face with kyle, who is now a grand prix winner, hes desperate to keep her from being the one who got away.

colton herta

accidental pregnancy!! their relationship was falling apart, the distance and the pressures of colton’s career. eating them alive. words were said that couldn’t be taken back. so they called it quits, he moved to nashville and she tried to keep her head down and finish school. until she missed her period. her world seems to be ending with those two little lines, but she still cares about him. she can’t just keep coltons child a secret from him, this disaster is as much his fault as it is hers. so she goes to indiana the weekend before the 500 and she tells him. tensions are running high between them both, but they’re trying to do right by each other and the baby, and the experience reminds them that maybe they were meant to be together all along.

marcus armstrong

brothers best friend!!! y/n ilott knows that marcus is off limits. since she was fifteen she’s thought all her brothers friends were gross anyways. marcus was always by far the most annoying. fast forward a few years and they’re racing together in the same series again and suddenly marcus armstrong isn’t a gross as she remembers. and has his voice always been that sexy?? but callum can NEVER know.

david malukas

wrong number! let’s face it this man is too lazy to make contacts for half of the names in his phone. he was so sure that was sting rays number. why wouldn’t it be, the man from idaho had typed it in himself. turns out, it wasn’t sting ray at all, but some random college student who lived over a thousand miles away. he starts to text her when she gets bored, eventually progressing to face time calls, and begins to get flustered once he has a face to put with the personality. ends with him flying out to meet in her in person.

christian lundgaard

fake dating! he shouldn’t have done it. every bone in his body told him not to do it but the panicked look on her face was enough to make christian agree to pretend to be her boyfriend to scare off her cheating ex boyfriend, who was making her seriously uncomfortable. it was just supposed to be for the weekend, until the guy started leaving her alone. but a lot can happen on one race weekend and suddenly it doesn’t seem so fake anymore.

callum ilott

childhood friends to lovers! they were always just supposed to be friends, but if that’s the case, why does callum hate her new boyfriend now that the relationship is getting serious? why does y/n still feel like something is missing? cue a drunken night out leading to the hottest sex callum has ever had and lingering questions on both sides about what they really truly want out of life and love.

cal and lightning

in this case lightning is the brunette (ryan) and cal is the blonde (josef) . do you get me

[sirpercevaleclerc]

Every time that Pato post a selfie in his car I can’t help but imagine how romantic it must feel to ride with him in the night under the city lights and his star ceiling. How calm and good feeling.

Maybe leading to a quiet place where you can talk about everything and anything and some make out. 😌

[raapija]

your tags on that photo of Kyle about being an investor and sponsoring Colton’s car lives in my head rent free. i’m just spitballing here, but like Kyle and Colton have talked briefly, but only over the phone. and then they meet at some fancy event before st pete and Kyles like wtf he’s so hot and they sneak to the bathroom and kyle sucks his dick and then. idk. but there’s a lot of yearning involved and eventually they fall in love

but this was just an idea that came to mind as i was reading your tags lol

I can't stop thinking about it either 😭

It starts out as a bit of fun. Just for, you know, the "rush" of it. But eventually they get to know each other better and oh no, they fall madly in love. But of course, there's a shit ton of angst involved because "noo, he's a millionaire, he practically owns the team, nooo" and "noo, he's too good for me, i'm nothing compared to this weird californian punk rock kid, nooo"

Colton slowly (as if by taking it slow he is somehow making it less insane) moving into his million dollar penthouse in downtown Indiananapolis (or Nashville) and on the other side, Kyle's been thinking about buying engagement rings from like.. day two of meeting him 😭

And as an off-shoot headcanon I love imagining Investor Kyle rocking up to the track one day and everyone being like "who the fuck is this dude" and turns out he's giving Andretti about 60 million a year. And eventually he just becomes part of the grid and is on indycar socials (mostly against his will and hating it) and becomes a fan favorite 😭

✧♡˖°ʚ about me ɞ♡✧

hi! my name is ivy!

making a lil introductory post with some fun facts!

❧ i use she/her pronouns, and i am very bi 💖💜💙

❧ i love racing, i was raised on indycar, but only started watching seriously this season so if my knowledge seems patchy that's why. i know some super niche stuff and have no idea about some super obvious stuff lol

❧ i don't really have any particular fav f1 teams, just people i do or don't like. for indycar, i tend to lean towards andretti global, although i like a lot of the grid individually.

❧ my fav f1 drivers are fernando alonso, carlos sainz, logan seargant(WTF IS A KILOMETER RAHHH), and daniel ricciardo, and my fav indycar drivers are colton herta, nolan siegel, dave malukas, and pato o'ward. there are plenty of other ppl i like though, so if you want to chat i'm happy to yap!

❧ warning: this blog may contain some haterism, but i promise it will all be in good fun! i dont believe anyone should deal with threats or hate speech, no matter how much i dislike them. i am simply a middle sister and incredibly sassy. pretty much everything i say can be taken with a little /lh at the end

❧ this will be a fanfic blog, but its gonna be inconsistent as hell bc shit is crazy in my life and i am adhd as fuck!

❧ requests are open for p much any driver (NOT ferrucci tho i would never), but if i don't feel comfortable or capable of writing a request i'll let you know! some of the younger guys especially are a little dicey, it depends on the request.

❧ my writings could be fluff, angst, oneshots, blurbs, headcanons, smaus, whatever i'm feeling. there may be some smut thrown in but that shit is impossible to write so we'll see.

❧ i have a few things in the works right now, which will hopefully be finished shortly!

please please please reach out i would love to chat!

ngl i feel ever-so self conscious about writing such a long comment (it's long long) but i haven't enjoyed a fic this much in what feels like forever, so if the comment brings you even a fraction of the happiness that you've given me with the mission universe, then i'm glad 🧡

now to invade your inbox with more bad ideas 👀 oscar and lando are absolutely down bad for one another, It Is Known™️, but oscar's also notably very calm, and very good at clearing his head of distractions. so talking to a friend about f1 padel made me think of mission! padel, and poor logan trying to get a normal game in...

then it veered hard left and became 'charles & oscar vs max & lando', but its really just charles & oscar against max because every time oscar combs his fingers through his hair, or lifts his shirt to wipe sweat off 💦, or bends over 🍑 to pick up his water bottle then pours the water over his head a la qatar, or bites his lip in concentration, lando misses the serve because Oscar 😳🥴🤯

(charles is 100% the mastermind behind this. he will stop at nothing to win, including slutting oscar out. oscar agrees because is secretly a gremlin, and has a very good poker face. logan bemoans yet another ruined padel game because lando's being horny on main the next court over)

kthxbye 🧡💜🩷

asjdsfskl okay firstly i just read your comment and i just??? 🥺🤯😭🥲 thank you SO MUCH?! it makes me happy beyond words that you took the time to send me all your thoughts about the fic, i'm honestly speechless, so please allow me A Moment to respond to it on AO3, because you deserve an oscar piastri-level big brained response.

but in the meantime let me scream at you about this padel headcanon because I LOVE IT. listen charles will be victorious and he doesn't care if he has to strip lando of his dignity to do it. charles just stands there and refuses to pick up the ball after every round, which forces oscar to bend over each time 🍑, and lando is suffering.

at first max is exasperated at lando but then he realizes what his fiance is doing, and remembers that he's max fucking verstappen and he wrote the book on how destroy your rival. cue max telling lando there's a bug in his shirt, which makes lando yeet the shirt off his body. and listen even oscar's composure has its limits -- he misfires his next serve, which goes flying and hits logan in the next court over.

logan debates taking the L and transferring to indycar.

HEY YOU! YES, YOU! 🫵

Choose your favorite motorsport (or the one you watch most) and let's form ✨️ a dream team✨️

- Choose your drivers (you can choose any driver from any category, in any motorsport. You can also include a reserve driver if you want)

- Choose your team (it could be a current team or some other team outside of the motorsport you chose, why not)

- Choose your team principal (could be retired drivers, current or retired TPs, random people in the paddock, whoever you want).

- Choose a track for the team's first victory (can be any track on or off the calendar)

- Choose a dream podium (1-2, one rider with friends, one rider with rivals, 1-2-3 on the WDC. Your choice)

You can add some headcanon that you think would happen within the team (drivers arguing, any media scandals, TP fights with other TPs, whatever your mind can think)

hello sof !! thanks a lot for sending me this ask (and sorry that it took me ages to answer), should be fun ! 👀🩵

- drivers: the absolute toughest choice really, i would probably choose carlos sainz and pascal wehrlein, i'd be curious to see what that dynamic would look like

- team: prema is joining indycar, so why not expand their empire and start one in formula e as well? :)

- team principal: i’d like to see nico rosberg take such a job in fe ! mind you, i don’t think he’d ever really want to go back working in motorsports (valid), but since this is all fantasy, let’s assume he would actually really enjoy this + i need even more videos of him speaking in italian

- track for the the first team victory: obviously the home race in misano/rome/wherever ehehe

- dream podium: well my dream fe podium is actually weh - dac - cas, so i’ll say that one :)

(Yeah, the graphic sucks. I'm not a graphic designer. Feel free to make a better one.)

DISCLAIMER: Everything here is intended for entertainment purposes only: all the situations and stories depicted are fictitious, no one owns any of this nor is profiting from it.

This is a 18+ space only, so proceed at your own discretion.

Welcome to the Indycar Kinkmeme.

After seeing the success of the F1 version and feeling a little bit left out and having come to the fandom too late for the Livejournal days, I wanted to start this. I know we're a small fandom but it will be fun.

Many thanks to @formulaonekinkmeme for their consent to do this.

What is a Kinkmeme? A kinkmeme is where someone requests a prompt and/or pairing, and someone fills that request - all anonymously.

When? Round One starts on January 1, 2023 and ends never. We're a small fandom. I don't anticipate getting such a huge response that we would need rounds.

Where? You can submit and fill the prompts here on Ao3 starting January 1, 2023.

Who? The kinkmeme is open to anyone!

RULES AND FAQs- however, if you have any doubts or suggestions just send me an ask!

RULES:

1. No driver/reader. WAGS are allowed as long as they are with their driver. No WAG/WAG without their drivers. I know some of you have swingers headcanons.

2. All work lengths are accepted: you can submit anything between a drabble (100 words) and a long-fic. Multi-chaptered fics are welcome too!

3. If a prompt contains sensitive content (consent issues, infidelity, death and other dark themes in general), please put the trigger warnings before the prompt itself; if you’re in doubt if something is triggering, tag it anyways - better safe than sorry!

4. Of course, the same goes for the fills: please tag the kinks and eventual triggers correctly. And no, “dead dove: do not eat” alone doesn’t quite cut it. If you don’t want to disclose anything, please use the archive warning “author chose not to warn”, so readers can proceed at their own discretion.

5. If there’s something you really don’t want to see in the prompt fill, please specify it with “do not want”.

6. Same thing goes with things you absolutely want the prompt filler to put in the fic: specify it with “want”, of course.

7. When you fill a prompt, please specify what prompt you are responding to in the author's notes.

8. All drivers from any Indycar season are accepted, including Indy 500 one-offs. One driver in the pairing/group must be from Indycar, the rest may be from any motorsports series.

9. Last but not least: please don’t harass anyone over a kink or a pairing you disagree with. Remember: don't like don't read, and your kink is not my kink and that's okay. We DO NOT kinkshame here.

FAQ:

1. Do I have to stay anonymous? In the spirit of the kinkmeme, both prompter and author should be anonymous.

2. Instead of fanfic, can I fill a prompt of the meme with art or other media? Yes. Anything you want to do is welcome.

3. Can I only prompt/submit NSFW material? Again, anything you want. Sweet and fluffy. General with no romance at all. The raunchiest, most depraved thing in existence. It's all welcome here.

4. Can I only prompt pairings? You can prompt anything or nothing. Whatever your imagination desires, three, four, more, the entire field. Whatever. You can also prompt genfic without pairings using “no pairing”, or prompt something for an unspecified pairing using “any/any”

5. Can I fill my own prompt? Sure! It’s anonymous, so who’s going to know?

6. Can I re-prompt something with variations? If you see a prompt you like and would like to read it for your own pairing, you can re-prompt it! Just make it clear that it’s a re-prompt when you submit it.

7. A prompt has already been filled, can I fill it again? Can I fill multiple prompts? Yes, please do.

Please reshare to spread the word.

save a horse . . . // callum ilott

summary: indycar is in texas, and you know what that means. or, callum looks so delicious in that cowboy hat and his girlfriend- who grew up on a dude ranch and knows full well what the cowboy hat rule means- can't keep her hands off of him

author's note: shout out to @magnummagnussen for encouraging this dumpster fire. also, it ends kind of abruptly because i ran out of steam

it all started one thursday afternoon in the juncos hollinger motorhome

callum was on his way back from his media duties with two paper cups of tea in his hands

and when she sees him, her breath catches in her throat

because her normally babygirl looking boyfriend is taking her breath away in his juncos polo and his straw cowboy hat

and it brings an old texas saying back to the forefront of her memory and an old rule about cowboy hats

and it’s enough to get her to choke on her water

“you alright, babe?” callum asks, in his sweet innocent british voice before he kisses the top of her head

“yeah, yeah. I’m good. just peachy.”

and once they’re alone, standing on the patio and drinking their paper cups of tea (something that y/n’s texan parents would have gawked at)

she turns to him, her voice low as she says “you know what they say about horses and cowboys?”

“no?” callum shook his head, an innocent and lovable kind of stupid “should I?”

she bounces her eyes around the motorhome before hooking a finger and beckoning him closer

“save a horse, ride a cowboy, babe.”

she winks at him before grabbing the hat and placing it on her head

“and she who wears the cowboys hat must ride him later.” she whispers, voice husky in callums ear

and he could have sworn that he was half hard in his jeans already

“is that a promise?”

“more than. but, you have to go finish your media duties first, sweetheart.”

fast forward three hours and all the media things are done, and they're back in callum's drivers room

and they simply cannot keep their hands off each other

like at all

shes taking her lacy panties off, hooking them on the doorknob

his polo is gone, thrown across the room somewhere (he never did find it)

she's reaching to take off her cowboy boots, but he stops her

"keep them on, pretty girl."

"that's kinda kinky, ilott. is there something you aren't telling me?"

"just that you are so fucking hot right now."

fingers scrabbling for callum's belt, his hands pushing up her cute little denim skirt

peasant blouse pushed up so her tits are right in callum's face.

"oh, yes, baby!" she whines. "just like that callum, right there."

"doing so good for me, my pretty girl." he hums against her skin, kissing all over her chest as he thrusts his cock deeper into her

"god, i fucking love your cock." she pants, hands on his face as she kisses him, grinding down just enough to wrench a moan from callum's throat

because callum is fucking VOCAL as hell

"yeah, i know you love this cock, sweetheart. you were so needy for it today."

"what can i say- oh! the cowboy hat did things to me."

she moans loudly as she throws her head back, the hat falling to the floor as callum presses his hand to her mouth.

"ssh, baby. we don't want anybody to hear us, do we? those pretty sounds are for my ears only."

6. which ship fans are the most annoying?

haha. well. i'll say any fan of any ship that is so toxic about their ship that they will go to great lengths to vehemently deny the existence/plausibility of a different ship with one of the same characters in it. i have no problem with anyone not wanting to read x y or z there are plenty of ships i don't like but i just. y'know. don't read or interact with them! i've felt this way in every fandom i've been in: if you don't like or don't understand a ship just don't fucking engage w it. you don't need to make 700 posts about why it would never happen in real life, like, none of this is going to happen in real life. it's fanfiction. i fr read indycar rpf i have marcus armstrong x david malukas fics in my bookmarks i don't know if they've ever even interacted in real life but it literally doesn't matter bc fanfiction is not that deep !!

10. worst part of fanon

for some reason this one has severely stumped me. i honestly have no idea. maybe any aggressively believed in theory that driver a hates driver b for x y and z whatever like i can't think of anything off the top of my head but i've always hated shit like that. like when someone just Decides that their fav driver hates their least fav because it idk feels easier that way?? i don't get it. does this even answer the question

16. you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)

and i answered this one here!

[parcfermekisses]

Kinktober – Days 19/20 Masturbation: Pato / Lando

He’s pressed along Lando’s side on the bed, Lando’s thigh between his legs, as he shadows his fingers over warm skin and firm muscle.

Lando holds himself up – hard, beautifully on display – and Pato has to bite back the sound that threatens to escape. It's something Pato wants him to do again and again for him. He has a brief urge to find out how he tastes, but Lando is looking up at him, pleading, and he closes his mouth over Lando’s instead. They’re good at kissing, but it’s as far as they’ve gone. This is … new, and Pato keeps the kisses soft, teasing, the same. 

He lifts his head, trails more kisses underneath Lando’s jaw until his mouth is beside his's ear and Pato has to work to keep his voice steady, not betray just how much he’s thought about this. “Show me what you like.”

[safetycar-restart]

Do you write for indycar drivers? Because i need sub!pato o’ward headcanons more than i need air!! If not, i’d die happy with little!yuki headcanons as well!

~🐍(can i claim this emoji if it’s not claimed yet?)

Hi hello! Yes you can claim that emoji :)) any asks you send with will be tagged with it and also then I’ll know who you are, which always makes things fun

Secondly, at the moment I’m gonna say no to Indycar just because I don’t know it well enough. I am slowly but surely learning more though! If anyone has any blog recs for blogs that post Indycar content, please let me know!! I really want to get more into it.

As for little!yuki, here are my thoughts:

- actually a very well behaved little?

- he’s very loud though. Always laughing and shrieking and talking

- you struggle to understand him a lot of the time though, his words a mix of English and Japanese

- he tends to just... follow you around the house? He doesn’t actually help you do anything. Literally just follows you.

- he will often narrate your tasks, though his narration is a tad dramatic

- for instead he once said that you were “disarming a bomb” and in reality, you were opening a package

- absolutely ADORES forehead kisses. Literally lives for them.

soldier 76 headcanons

since jack is from indiana here are some headcanons i have about him because i am from indiana, also

born in bloomington, jack grew up on a farm in northern indiana with hundreds of acres of corn as his backyard

the only son of an only son

attended the local county pubic school, where he was a grade A troublemaker but remarkably bright and cheerful

usually able to charm his way out of trouble

graduating class of 60 kids

always knows the price of corn

hobby hunter and taxidermist

member of FFA and 4-H club

at age 17 jack and a few friends got drunk and wound up accidentally torching the abandoned gas station on county road 600 E

traveled to indianapolis for the 500 every year

age 19: got a tattoo of Valerie Roush, an indycar dirver, on his left bicep

age 25: got the tattoo removed

before joining the military, the farthest jack had ever been from home was a family vacation to Missouri when he was 14

his father wanted jack to take over the family farm; however, he hasn’t so much as visited indiana since he was recruited into the soldier enhancement program 

(breaking a 6 generation streak of Morrisons farming that land)

jack was secretly relieved because he desperately did not want to take over the farm, he did not want to be bound to the same land and occupation as his father and his grandfather and his great-grandfather

jack found himself in overwatch, this was the purpose and meaning he’d been chasing his whole life, and he threw himself into the cause with passion he didn’t know he’d possessed

(when his parents died, the property was purchased by some cousins.)

although technically buried at arlington national cemetery, there is a small plaque at Oddfellows Cemetery, next to the graves of his parents and the previous six generations of Morrisons.

the cousins who bought the farm leave flowers every memorial day for the boy they remember from family reunions, the boy who liked strawberry ice cream and tagging rail cars, and for the man he became
