Spa, Belgium – Round 14

Andilet (Robert)

Race day

Even though the night with Mitch had been more than two weeks ago, and many, many, many texts since, I was still riding the high. And I couldn’t wait to get back out on the track. I’d finished ninth, two places ahead of my teammate but outside the points in eighth position, in the sprint race on Saturday and P9 would be where I started in today’s main race. It felt as though this was going to be a weekend where everything came together and just worked.

I wandered back into the garage once I’d found a snack after the team strategy meeting to the sight of Daniel draping himself over a stack of tires, still in their warmers, phone held over his head. His chest was bare, and he was flexing his pecs. He looked like a right idiot, as far as I was concerned, but assumed he was posting another thirst trap for his millions of Insta and TikTok followers.

I didn’t get it. If I were going to post anything, it would be F1 related or about how my race went, but I was grateful I had Libby to take care of my social media accounts, only getting me to do live tweet sessions sometimes, and the odd post myself. According to her, my feeds were “lacking” before she’d taken them over. Whatever. Daniel turned the phone around to me and shouted, “Say hello to your fans, Andilet.”

I shook my head at his antics, but gave his phone a smile and a lame wave. “Hey, everyone.”

Daniel snorted a half laugh at me and turned the mobile back on himself. I left him to it, happy to not be a part of the crazy world of thirst traps, videos, trolls, and all that bullshit.

I had better things to do with my phone, like read messages from Mitch. He had texted, as he always did before a race now, to wish me good luck but I didn’t think I’d need it. Plus, I had his lucky cat charm on my boot.
