kmag: these penalties aren’t fair. i get punished for “safety hazards” that are really just minor infringements, meanwhile ricciardo was let off easy after nearly sending nico into the barrier at 300 kph.

stewards: yeah, about that… we should probably point out that nico’s contact with yuki was not only nico’s own fault but way more dangerous tha–

kmag: sorry, maybe you didn’t hear me correctly. i said THE NEXT PERSON WHO LAYS HANDS ON MY HUSBAND–––

Daniel via LinkedIn: “Had a great break. At home, off the grid, with loved ones. Refreshed and ready for a big 2024 💪”

Every time a F1 driver’s appendix gives up a new rip in the timeline is formed

I’ll explain:

The LAST appendicitis we saw in F1 was Alex Albon in Monza of 2022. Like Carlos, Alex ran FP1 & FP2 before confronting the tummy issues and finding out they were serious. When he was diagnosed and officially unable to race, Nick Devries was called up to drive for Williams for the weekend.

Nick has been waiting in the wings for years, putting in impressive drives in other series but never finding an open F1 seat. He drives incredibly well — qualifies 13th after only 1 free practice session, and manages to finish 9th in the race itself. These are the first points scored for Williams this season.

After the race, Nick had dinner with Max Verstappen, who tells him to give Helmut Marko a call.

That call turns into Nick being signed to then-Alpha Tauri (now VCARB) for the 2023 season.

But that sort of… does not go well. Midway into the season, Nick is dropped for Drive To Survive’s favorite boy, Daniel Ricciardo.

As far as things go, the timeline seems restored. Danny Ric goes from social media support for Red Bull to the beginning of his comeback arc…

Until he crashes into the wall and breaks his wrist.

ENTER: New Zealand’s Golden Retriever, Liam Lawson

Liam is INCREDIBLE. Knocks Max Verstappen, resident best driving boy, out of qualifying!!! This is unheard of. The paddock is alive.

But when Danny’s wrist heals, Liam is sent back into his reserve position.

FLASH FORWARD. We have another appendicitis.

Once again, a smooth operator ignores tummy issues. Drives lots. Finally sees doctor, and finds out he has been putting g forces on an appendix that MUST go.

ENTER: F1’s Peter Parker, Ollie Bearman.

This fresh faced babe is only 18. Is less than 4 one hundredths of a second off of knocking the greatest driver of all time out, Lewis Hamilton, of qualifying. Ironically, in this unspooled timeline that we’re currently living in, the seat that Ollie’s keeping warm? Yeah, next year, Lewis Hamilton will be in that seat.

And Ollie!!!! Is!!! Killing it!!!

He finished SEVENTH… ahead of Lewis.

And Lewis? Lewis is so proud of the literal child that he stands next to his car and waits for Ollie to free himself of the car so he can hug him.

Anyways, welcome to appendicitis 2. Silly season is about to get interesting.

[monzamash]

unless you like that — daniel ricciardo

summary – it’s events season and the alcohol is flowing.  rating – a whole lotta smut 18+ (sex scene, course language, drinking) pairing – daniel ricciardo x you (female reader) word count – 3.8k of absolute filth a/n – bit of plot but mostly just sex because drunk, flirty danny ric makes me feral. that's it. enjoy the ride. masterlist

All you wanted to do was drag Daniel back to your hotel room, get reacquainted after a couple of torturous weeks of being apart, maybe run a hot bath and enjoy the rest of your night in peace.

In your dreams.

You never really had Daniel for long during the season and because of that, you wanted to make the most of your time actually being in the same country, let alone the same city. But your handsome, social butterfly of a boyfriend had other ideas – ones that didn’t factor in your desire to have him all to yourself.

So good to see ya too, mate.

We’ve gotta catch up next time you’re in LA, man.

Maaaate, long time no see!

How’s ya mum going? Tell her I said hi.

The mum's bloody loved themselves a bit of Daniel Ricciardo.

The long, doting line of people wanting to wish Daniel good luck for next year and praising his strength through adversity while getting a sneaky selfie was never ending. To put it plainly, it was obnoxious but you were used to it now. He was effervescent, charismatic – a big ‘ol magnet to anyone and everyone. You loved him endlessly, admired his ability to smile through the pain even more but all you wanted to do was say goodnight to everyone and leave.

Barely two words were shared before you were whisked off in a car and through the doors of this swanky restaurant – the private function room and bottomless champagne making it less excruciating.

“All I can think about is getting this over and done with so I can come back here and rip this unbelievably beautiful dress off you.”

Those ‘barely two words’ were enough ammunition to last you a couple of hours, holding onto the hope of that promise coming true. But right now you had to try and enjoy the night and put any filthy thoughts you may or may not be having aside for the sake of your own sanity. Smile and wave.

You didn’t know exactly what the party was for but you knew that the McLaren team were the ones throwing it from the obnoxious amount of orange balloons hanging from the ceiling – and that Daniel was obliged to attend. But you would never have guessed that he was there as a contractual obligation the way he floated through the room, saying hello to every last individual, bright smile adorning his face. He made each and every person feel like a million bucks. That’s why they loved him, because he made them feel at ease – like he was one of them.

Daniel didn’t think there was a whole lot for him to be celebrating but he always underestimated how loved he was by McLaren – racing problems aside, he was adored by the staff who were devastated to see him leaving.

And somehow in a room of nearly a hundred people, he knew nearly everyone by name, zeroing in long enough to have them eating out of the palm of his hand.

Your words, not his.

“Could you say hello to my grandson – he loves you.” An older lady asked, phone locked and loaded for the video. God help him if he said no.

“Absolutely.”

Of course he said yes. That was the kind of person Daniel was. Not a people pleaser or a push over – just a genuinely nice guy with more patience than anyone you’d ever known.

After making your way around most of the room, you finally had a second to drink in your man. The freshly steamed, light blue linen shirt was lazily buttoned over his shoulders, leaving a the tiniest bit of chest hair showing for good measure and to tease you, no doubt. He’d gone for his classic black skinny jeans sitting atop a pair of shiny black dress shoes look that you loved and those wild curls that you’d spent hours twirling between your fingers flowed onto his forehead – he looked so fucking good.

His charm and kindness always had you singing his praises and you made sure he knew how wonderful he was, how attractive he was. Your soft whispers of admiration had his heart pumping as he took a sip of his Chateau Margaux red, lips quirked in a smile. “So sexy.”

“Which part of all that was sexy? The bit where I filmed a video for that women’s grandkid? You are an absolute deviant if that’s makin’ ya feel a certain way, my girl.”

Daniel loved to tease, especially when it garnered that kind of reaction. Rolling eyes, flushed cheeks and a gentle shove in the arm. He fucking lived for it.

“No, dickhead.” You scolded under your breath, “Just… you being you. I don’t know what it is.”

You couldn’t put your finger on it but you knew how it made you feel. Seduced.

“Maybe you can figure it out in our hotel room.”

Daniel shrugged with a smirk lining his lips, nonchalantly throwing out the idea as if he hadn’t been plotting a way to leave the party early. Wishing for nothing more than to have you praising his other set of skills, if you catch my drift. Rolling your eyes with flushed cheeks but in a very different context. He was twitching at the thought as his fingertips lightly scratched at the silky material covering your ribs, dragging your body closer to his.

“Don’t tempt me, Ricciardo. All I’ve wanted since the second we got here was to leave so don’t talk a big game if you can’t deliver.” You were whispering in his ear, hoping to spur on those scheming eyes staring back at you.

“When have I not delivered? Just call me FedEx,” He joked, swaggering away from the bar and waving to Lando who had just rocked up with his crew in tow.

“Do we even know what this party’s for?” Lando asked over the loud music blasting through the speakers, taking the smallest step back after he gave us both a hug hello.

Lando looked dapper compared to his usual hoodie and track pants ensemble that he'd wear around the track. He was slightly confused by the overt extravagance he’d walked into but he was always smiling your way, making you feel welcome. You were going to miss his cheekiness and the way he brought out a different side to Daniel. Mischief always seemed to follow those two.

“Probably just a way for McLaren to swing their dick around before the end of the season,” Daniel shrugged, completely oblivious to how crude his comment was. Thankfully Lando was more than used to it now after working so closely with him so you didn’t have to apologise on Daniel’s behalf.

“The wine’s ace though.” He quickly added.

“You would say that,” Lando replied, snickering quietly as he looked over at the bar, “Might actually grab a drink and come back. Want anything?"

Lando looked between you and Daniel as you both shook your heads until he turned away and disappeared into the crowd, “Kid’s not gonna know what hit him next year – being the golden boy isn’t what it’s cracked up to be…”

You nodded and watched Daniel’s eyes following Lando, pensively taking a sip of his wine before sighing and glancing back to you, “What?”

“Nothing,” You tutted, “It’s funny how much you care about him now after how rocky the relationship was in the beginning. I love that he’s softened you a little bit, made you less of a prick.” You winked.

The insincere insult tacked onto the end made Daniel’s thick eyebrows rise with faux hurt, an exaggerated gasp masterfully added for emphasis, “Me? A prick? I wouldn’t reckon a prick snags a girl like you.”

You watched as Daniel sculled the rest of his wine, a devilish smirk hiding behind the large glass, “No chance. Unless you like that.”

“I don’t hate it.”

Daniel's laugh was dark as he took a step forward, lessening the gap between the two of you before reaching up and brushing your hair over your shoulder, “Now you’re tempting me and that’s not fair.” He whispered into your ear, carefully placing his empty glass on the table beside you.

“Nothings really fair though, is it? You having to be here instead of buried deep inside me, fucking me until I –”

“The bar line’s a fucking ‘mare,” Lando loudly interrupted and caused you to jump back from Daniel’s side. You steadied yourself on his hip for balance as you watched Lando plot his next move.

“Oh, there’s Charlotte – she’ll have an in!”

You and Daniel politely nodded again while he shot off in the other direction, and the two of you shifted away from the middle of the room, out of view of prying eyes and into a private nook. Daniel was quick to pin you up against the wall, large hand pressing into your hip as you looked up at him with innocent eyes. He could see right through you.

“Don’t give me that look,” He growled, eyes narrowed. “Look at what you do to me.”

His whispered words and flickering eyes encouraged your hands that were playing with his slightly parted shirt to travel further south, fingertips tracing over his dark denim jeans that were a lot tighter than when he first got here. Almost too tight.

“You are fuckin’ cruel, sweetheart.”

The painfully hard outline pressing against your palm intoxicated your already foggy mind, mouth watering. You could feel your thighs magnetically pulling together as his thumb flicked the dimple in your chin, forcing you to look into his dark, misty eyes that were watching your every move.

"Want me to do something about it?" It was a bold question to ask, a dangerous one, even when you noticed his eyes change colour. They were blacker than the night sky now.

Daniel was exasperated, anguished by the question as he smiled and dipped his forehead onto yours. The answer was obviously “abso-fucking-lutely, get down on your knees and show me you love me” but he knew better. And so did you. Still, the warm puff of air from his laugh still sent surging chills down your arched spine, needy for his touch.

“I hate sayin’ no to you,” He rasped and closed his eyes for a fleeting moment, “Especially when I know how fucking good you feel but no. You can't.”

You dryly chuckled and brushed your hands over his puffed out chest, “Must be absolute torture, my boy. Thankfully I can hide how I’m feeling – you? Not so much.” You replied with gritted teeth and a shrug, smirk dancing on your lips.

“Yeah, you’re fuckin’ in for it later, mate.” He playfully retorted before pulling himself from your grasp and leaving you with what he thought was a threat, but what you took as a promise you hoped to God he would keep. You were soaked. to. the. core.

The expensive champagne continued to flow freely for hours and several glasses of wine later had you and Daniel fumbling around at your hotel room door, unsure whether you’d arrived at the right number and having absolutely no idea where the key card you barely remembered giving him had gone. It also didn’t help that Daniel’s lips hadn’t left the crook of your neck while you dug through your clutch, his fingers inching closer to danger with every passing second.

“Lemme see your pockets,” You huffed and shoved your hand into his jeans pocket, causing a loud shriek to slip from his lips.

“You’re just tryin’ to touch my dick!” He shouted, louder than he expected and definitely louder than you accepted as appropriate, even in your drunken stupor, "You can if ya want."

“Shuuuush!” You hissed, trying not to laugh as Daniel gazed up at the ceiling and reached into his back pocket, searching until his eyes lit up with excitement. “Ah-huh!”

“Thank god – now hurry up and fuck me please!” You whisper-yelled, praying for the sweet sound of a door unlocking.

“Alright, ya horn-bag. Give me a sec- ond… Shit!” Daniel paused and looked back at you with wide eyes, “Wrong room.”

You could faintly hear the sound of footsteps behind the large door in front your shocked face. Before you could even muster a response to his mortifying revelation, Daniel had you in his grasp, dragging you down the hallway, panting and hoping he had a plan. He always did.

“Room 1001 – not 1011,” He coughed through his laughter, hovering the keycard over the lock and finally revealing the room we’d left nearly 5 hours ago, “Home sweet home.”

“Shut up,” You mumbled, throwing your arms over his shoulders and jumping into his embrace. Daniel groaned at your sudden burst of energy and hoisted you up on his waist, mouths instantly attached and desperately trying to defy physics.

Your vision was blurry when you pulled away for air, lips still touching, noses knocking and your hands still roaming the expanse of Daniel’s broad shoulders. You could feel him moving you further into the room that was spinning, the ceiling fan still whirring above your head. That was the first thing you saw when you landed on the messy hotel bed and left for dead by Daniel who was chuckling at the foot, watching you lay back in defeat.

“I’m stupidly drunk.” You huffed.

Daniel nodded as you looked up at him through hooded eyes, “So, so drunk.”

“Not that drunk.”

Your pointed finger and wiggling eyebrows told him exactly what you were referring to, lip bite and dark eyes forever selling you out.

“Take off your pants.” You ordered.

Daniel’s grin dropped into a smirk as you propped yourself up on your elbows, encouraging your boyfriend to give you a little show. Tipsy or not, Daniel knew what you wanted and he’d move heaven and earth to give you whatever you asked for. A heat rushed across his chest as he gazed down at you, undressing for him. The silky satin dress slipped off a lot easier than it went on, a detail not going unnoticed by Daniel who was slowly unbuttoning his shirt, moaning at the sight of your white lacy thong that you knew he loved.

“Killing me.”

“You love it, baby.”

“I live for it.”

The banter was hot, if not hotter than the actual sex. Foreplay was your forte but you weren’t in a ‘building a narrative’ kind of mood. It was primitive now – the primal need for a release outweighing the desire to fuck around with each other. That was the kind of fun best saved for the morning. You were already looking forward to that.

“Look how wet I am for you, Danny.”

Daniel growled as he kicked his jeans off, boxer briefs attached as they flung across the room, discarded with his wrinkled linen shirt. He stood for a moment – naked, painfully hard and begging to be touched before crawling up onto the California king. You could feel him throbbing as he brushed up on your inner thigh, legs open and wrapped around his waist in a matter of seconds. Lips attached again, frenziedly needing for more.

“Give it to me.” You pathetically pled.

“I wanna taste first.”

You resented his love for you in that moment. Resented that he wanted to indulge in what you had to offer, when all you wanted was the main course. The sharp huff that slipped from your lips made Daniel chuckle into your inner thigh, sloppy kisses followed by tiny nibbles, undeniably revving you up but also making the pout on your face that much more noticeable.

“You’re sexy even when you’re mad,” He almost slurred, closing the gap between you and his indescribably proficient tongue. Hot breath fanning over what you could only imagine was your glistening pussy. Ready for him to enjoy. Fuck.

“You are a fucking drug. A sweet, delicious drug that'll be the death of me.”

Daniel hummed before flattening his tongue against you, loving eyes locked on yours before your head tilted back, throat barely squeaking out a moan. He lapped and lapped and lapped away at you, paying close attention to the way you curled up when the tip of his nose slipped over your clit, your moan changing in pitch. He was always in heaven devouring you like this, until he was somewhat satisfied. He wasn’t selfish and he knew what you wanted, even if he could’ve stayed like that until the sun came up. Feasting.

“Daniel, please.”

“Full naming me when I just wanna make you feel good is mean, baby.”

Daniel was playing. And you were teasing. He loved hearing you moan his whole name – his mind reeling back to the time you screamed out his full name as you came, subsequently rushing him to his own finish line. Exploding.

“I wanna cum around your cock. That’s all I want,” You sighed and finally opened your eyes, clutching and admiring at the sprinkling of chest hair. Daniel was drunk, but not drunk enough to not realise how lucky he was to have you spread out beneath him, pleading for him to fuck you into another dimension.

“Your wish is my… demand? Command? Your wish is my something,” Daniel couldn’t quite find the saying in the midst of his excitement, and you couldn't hold back the fit of laughter as you threw your head into the pillows.

“Smooth, Ricciardo,” You giggled as you felt his slick tip teasing your hole, fists clenched beside your head and a smirk the size of the equator on his face.

“Well how does it go then, smarty pants?” Daniel nodded his head and gently sank into you, revelling in the feeling of you engulfing every inch he had to give while he watched your eyes roll into the back of your head, waiting for your answer.

“I –” You stammered, adjusting and sucking in a sharp breath, “I have no… No idea, and I don’t… fucking care.”

Daniel chuckled as his wispy curls fell into his eyes, watching you lick your lips and gather yourself. You were blurry in his vision, the alcohol now really pumping through his veins as he gripped your hips in his large hands, palms perspiring and brows following suit. Your fingertips trailed from his chest down to his pelvis, skin hot to the touch and tattoos glistening from sheen of sweat covering his perfect body.

“Fuck me just like that… Oh my god.” You snapped open your lust filled eyes – blazing flames erupting in Daniel’s as they caught yours.

“Feels fuckin’ good, ey.”

It was a rhetorical question but you nodded anyway.

Daniel was huffing and puffing as your lips tried to find his, hands cradling his slacked jaw. Drunken sloppy sex was one of your favourite genres and it’d been a hot minute since you’d found yourselves with the taste of red wine still lingering on your tongues, fucking like animals. He was thrusting hard until he noticed your hand crawl down to where your bodies met, the delicate touch slowing his movements and capturing his undivided attention.

“Oi,” Daniel breathed and sat back on his knees, still warming in your tight pussy. Your eyebrows quirked with intrigue and a small smirk tugged at the corners of your lips as he grabbed your hand and guided it up to his mouth, eyes never leaving yours. Fanning the flames deep inside.

His tongue swiped across your soft fingertips, making sure each one was dripping wet with spit before sliding them back down between your trembling thighs, “Bet that feels better, huh?”

“Mm-hmm. Much better,” You managed to moan out as he wrapped his arm around your lower back and angled your hips up to his cock, watching himself slowly slide in and out while you circled your clit, edging yourself closer with every touch.

Daniel picking up the pace meant he wasn’t far from his high, the tell tale signs were consistent and always a dead giveaway. The flush of red creeping up his neck and veins bulging under his taut skin was the first sign. Filthy words whispered into your ear was the second and grunts vibrating in his chest as his focus was pulled to you and only you were one of the final ones before he couldn’t hold on any longer.

But he never left you high and dry. Not in a million fucking years.

"Right fucking there, Danny!" You shouted, oblivious to your screams almost certainly alerting the neighbouring room. Even if you were conscious of the volume of your voice, you couldn’t have cared less. Your man was putting on a show and you’d be damned if you didn’t make sure he knew how good he was giving it to you.

"I'm right there..."

"Cum all over my cock, beautiful."

You squealed into the pillow you’d been gripping, scrunching your nose at how fucking good he felt filling you to the brim. Daniel eased your thrashing body through the shockwaves, making sure you felt every last writhe of pleasure – every nerve set alight by the fire burning in your stomach as that perfectly tied knot quickly unravelled. He was holding on for dear life, cursing how tight you felt coming around his aching cock.

"I need to see your face, baby. Look at me." 

Daniel’s raspy voice snapped you back to reality as your hips rocked violently against his. That and your blown-out pupils boring into his was enough to send him tumbling over the edge, unloading everything he had and more.

Daniel clutched your shuddering thighs with his searing fingertips as he bucked one, two, three times and placed one of his shaky palms against the hotel wall, trying to catch his breath as he filled you up. Your eyes were lazily shut, slowly regaining some semblance of consciousness and clawing at the skin on Daniel’s abdomen – attempting to soothe him through his high. Selfishly, you were too caught up in your own that you’d forgotten he was even still there. You'd make up for that later.

For now, you were in bliss. Laboured breathing filled the comfortable silence as you searched for one another, floating back down to the real world.

"Come back to me," Daniel teased quietly as a sly grin swept across your face, eyes closed and skin still tingling from his hot touch. He fell beside you and rolled off the bed in search of something, anything to clean up the mess you’d made together.

"I think I've died and gone to heaven," You whispered back, earning a hoarse chuckle in return. Daniel looked like a mirage on a hot summers day when you opened your eyes and watched him exit the en suite, tissue box in hand.

"What a review."

Proudly boasting after sex was a regular occurrence with Daniel and you loved it; encouraged it even. He chucked the tissue away and practically tripped back into bed, still tipsy and feeling the full effects now that he wasn't under your intoxicating spell. At least for now, anyway.

He flicked off the lamp and sent the room into complete darkness before you felt his warm arm snaking around your naked waist, pulling you into his pounding chest. You were exhausted and almost numb from the long night but satisfied above all else. Thirst well and truly quenched.

You could always rely on Danny for that.

The Arrangement [Daniel Ricciardo Series]

Paring: Sugar Daddy!Daniel Ricciardo x Fem!Reader

2022 wasn't an easy year for Daniel Ricciardo, his time at McLaren was coming to an end, the remaining months with the team and then he would be without a seat for the next year. A small trip to Vegas and a chance meeting in a bar changes all of that.

He never planned for her, never thought that their arrangement would lead to this, and never planned on letting himself fall for her.

ok so may i ask for 2 (“Open your mouth for me.”) and 18 (“Swallow”) with danny ric? it gives me filthy thoughts

# Warnings — dom!daniel, choking, spitting into one other mouth, fingering, dirty talk, bathroom sex.

“Love can you behave yourself for just night”

Daniel had asked you ten minutes prior to him leaving you alone by the bar to wonder off, meeting his friends who waved him over to their table. He’d kissed a gentle kiss to your forehead as he walked away, making you huff in response feeling alone but the drinks you had gave you enough company to keep your mind at ease.

But as time went on and the many drinks you’ve had started to consume your mind and body. Your head became too consumed with the ideal of wanting and craving Daniel. So much that you couldn’t control your body as your feet hit the ground and started making your way over to where Daniel was stood at.

Upon seeing the figure of you walking towards him, Daniel smirked to himself before excusing himself and walked over to you. “An hour” he said as he stood in front of you as he checked his phone, you felt dumb head tilting to the side as you gave him doe eyes.

“You lasted an hour, darling” he harshly grabbed onto your hand tugging you in the direction of the bathrooms, “one hour of not needing my attention, or” he pushed you into the bathroom a light gasp leaving your lips as he hoisted you up the wall, your legs automatically wrapping around his waist. “Needing me to fuck you”

You whimpered, feeling embarrassed and pathetic that he had kept time on how long you could last without needing his attention or the help to release the burning sensation you felt in-between your legs.

“Kept time” you slowly asked, head feeling dizzy at the slightest touch from his hand that slid up and down your leg.

He hummed, walking you both over to the sinks where he placed you down at. Legs spreading a bit as he settled himself in between them. “Of course i did. Wanted to see how long you could last” he gave you an cocky shrug before crashing his lips on yours. And of course, he laid right as moans immediately escaped your mouth while your hands threaded through his hair, hips starting to rut against him needing and wanting to feel anything.

“Fucking pathetic tho” he muttered out against your lips hand lifting up to light wrap around your neck, “was expecting you to last longer” he tightened his grip on your neck, causing your mouth to fall open.

“Yeah that’s right, open your mouth for me” you opened your mouth wider feeling his spit hit the back of your throat. His hand forcefully shut your mouth, head ducking to your ear, “swallow” he simply said, a glint of amusement in his eyes as he saw you swallow his spit.

“Good girl” he unzipped your shorts, tugging them off your legs as he ripped your panties off. Your head fell back against the dirty mirror behind you as you felt him push two fingers into your pulsing cunt. “So wet already” your chest heaved up and down, hands gripping onto the edges of the counter for support.

“Fuck Daniel, feels so good” he kneeled down on the ground grabbing onto your thighs pushing you more forward as he buried his face in-between your legs. Wet tongue meeting your folds as his tongue licked your cunt.

You jumped feeling him lay a slap to your cunt, eyes looking up at you as he licked strokes of your wetness.

“Needy brat”

[theemporium]

ooo angst idea

your morning sickness is baaaad and max asks some Red Bull person to bring you ginger ale

the next day the media erupts with a cheating scandal between F1 drivers. you slept with Max Verstappen and now you’re pregnant. does your husband, Daniel, know? how much of the grid have you slept with?

Daniel is struggling to handle the media alongside taking care of you while people are ripping into both of you, but mainly you. He’s falling apart at the seams. The sunshiney Danny Ric is gone and a shell is in its place. He doesn’t want to leave you at home because of how sick you are but the media at the paddock is so aggressive that you basically hide at the hotel all weekend.

And Max blames himself. He tells Christian to find the source of the leak (the employee who brought you the soda) and wants him fired. Christian is one step ahead of him and starts working with lawyers to have him sued into oblivion. He is slammed with questions on media day and he just snaps, “mate, the next person who talks about the people I love, especially the mother of my child, can get the fuck out” before walking out. This is all his fault. He hasn’t seen you or Danny in days. He gets a text from you with a hotel name and room number. This is it. You’re going to tell him to get out of your life.

But you just open the door and hug him, tears staining his shirt. Daniel is right behind you and he kisses Max’s temple before hugging him. The three of you talk it out and just cuddle all night and the next day, you walk into the paddock between both men and a bottle of ginger ale firmly in hand.

NO STOP THIS IS SO😭😭😭😭😭😭

and max being so scared you’re gonna cut him out but yous both just want them there is just so😭MY HEART

[silvery-bluish]

Tell us about Ars, Danny, and Ricardo? What are they like together? Does Ars act differently around Danny as they do Ric? Where do they all stand at the end of Retri?

Haha oh we’re inviting walltext. Sorry for the delay, this took me a few days to write out LOL dropping it beneath a cut bc it's pretty long.

tldr: ricardo means a lot to them and has always meant a lot to them, but theyre real bad at communicating. Daniel makes them better at communicating in some ways but they're very aware they fucked that up before it started. They're stuck in Ortega's apartment and theyre gonna implode dramatically.

Arsinoe and Ricardo have the weight of their past behind them, the 8-odd years of being at its complicate (with a break to be presumed dead) has comfort to it, Ricardo’s part of their normal, it’s like falling back into orbit when they’re near him. But there’s lots of things left unsaid, undefined, unclarified, because they felt they COULDNT in the old days and they certainly feel like they can’t now. Which is part of why they spend most of Retri avoiding him, whoops.

I think Ricardo’s afraid to push them too hard to clarify, these days, bc that might make them run again, and he wasn’t ready to push for things like publicly officially dating, in the Sidestep days. They trust each other in ways that are practically automatic at this point. They’d die for each other. They keep assuming they’re on the same page when they’re in entirely different books.

Arsinoe and Daniel sure don’t have that inertia behind them, so in some ways it’s easier to talk plainly? Daniel’s earnest bluntness and mental openness make Ars answer in kind. It's easier, smaller, maybe, for now, not as entwined as their relationship is with Ricardo, but that's safer, in some ways? They like his determination, his Decision to see the best in people.

They do have the, uh, fact that Arsinoe is So Very Aware that they fucked up his knee at the gala, because at the time he hadn't made it to the list of people they give a shit about and they'd decided that hurting him was the fastest way to be sure he wouldn't get in their way again. Whoops. This affects their interaction with him in two main ways-- they're pretty constantly worrying that they're taking advantage of the fact that he doesn't know - which is also kinda true - and they're hyperaware of not wanting to hurt him again, in a way that means they probably back off a little too fast when they're training which probably makes Daniel think they're going easy on him, sometimes?

So. They won't commit to anything real and firm and solid with either of them, because Arsinoe is very aware that the villain situation means anything they're building right now is going to inevitably fall apart except oops! car crash!! ortega knows theyre a regene and the world didnt end! Arsinoe's staying in Ortega's apartment, because it would feel like taking too much advantage of Daniel to stay in his apartment, and they don't want to leave Los Diablos to get to the Ranch, and Ricardo's apartment has been something like safe for them before so maybe it's safe now--

(They're rapidly running out of excuses to avoid talking about their relationships. I want them to villain reveal before they get anything firmed up relationship-wise, because they are-- very stressed out about building something they want and having it ripped away from them, inevitably. Safer not to name it. Probably going to accidentally imply to the guys theyre ready for a poly relationship talk and then actually hit them with the villain reveal. Sorry All.)

A gloomy atmosphere surrounded this place; it wasn't just the smokey smells and dimmed lights - those were nothing unusual for this type of club. But this one was different. Darker. Ricardo couldn't quite make out whether it was the music, the interior design all over or the shady characters it attracted. It was crowded with ominous people, he'd rather not get involved with. But he wasn't exactly here voluntarily, was he? The grand finale of the night show was already on full display; the dance had started and he was meant to be the lead of it. If he didn't have a pretty damn good reason to be here, he would have bailed out. But that wasn't really an option. And so, Ricardo did what he had to do, whether he liked it or not: He peeked through the curtains of the stage, waiting for the right moment to join in on the performance - and his show begins.

While it was his debut in this club - for these people, it hadn't been a first. Ric, unlike most of his colleagues actually had professional dance training and even did workshops himself for newbies. Though it was safe to say he knew exactly what he was doing and how to cheer on the crowd. As soon as he walked out, it was as if a completely different persona took over his body; confidently giving them the show of a lifetime. Move after move showing off his choreography and dance skills along with his toned body. Not long after, his eyes landed on this mysterious guy. Ricardo had no idea who he was yet but by the way everyone seemed to respect and aim to please him, he could only imagine he must have been someone important. Taking a chance, he boldly winked at Mr. unknown, just the moment he ripped his shirt off his body, not even sure where he was going with this but he was here to entertain the audience and so he did.

Once the performance was over and the spot lights were off, he felt a strong hand on his back; one of the other strippers warning him "don't play with fire man. He's no one you wanna mess with." Raising his brows, Ric asked curiously who the guy is and got his answer right away. By the way the other whispered the name Danny Isaacs, he wasn't sure if he was more intimidated, scared or into the subject of interest but from what he'd heard so far, it was probably best to stay away from him. Especially if he took after his father; the big boss. He'd only met him once and that was more than enough. Following the others to the backstage area, he was quickly informed someone wanted to see him. He quickly threw on a shirt and a pair of jeans. Without knowing who it was or what they wanted from him, he opened the door to the adjoining room. "You wanted to see me?"

Tbh, rbr has been known to just dump drivers when they don't perform. Was it fair to De Vries? No. But it's not a particularly surprising move from Helmut Marko who was known to be particularly ruthless with driver change ups. And has been just slamming Nyck publicly at every chance.

Was it a good look for danny ric, doing sort of the same as was done to him in mclaren? No. But honestly, he's stated pretty clearly in newish articles that he wanted to have a seat with red bull and for that to happen he'd have to take the AT seat to prove himself despite it being a tractor.

He's said in previous articles he was happy not racing, but after I believe the Austrian GP to now, he's also said he was ready to get back in a seat. So yeah opinions do change. And Daniel is someone I see who is more or an impulsive career choice maker imo for better or worse.

But really, this isn't even about Nyck, because rbr were ready to wash their hands of him, this is more about checo's seat/performance in the most dominant car we've seen yet. All another ploy from Helmut/rbr to pressure cook checo, Yuki and Daniel to see who would be 2nd seat to rbr for 2024. Contracts never mattered with rbr and they're more then ready to rip them apart.

rbr are really one of the most ruthless teams on the grid...but this is more recent. They weren't this ruthless back when max was a rookie, but they treat other rookies like crap. No hate to max AT ALL, just wondering why rbr changed attitudes so quickly.
