Summary
pack /păk/
noun
1. A group of people that form a relational bond with each other, with a hierarchy respecting a pack omega and a pack alpha. In order for it to be a recognized, legal pack, all dynamics must be represented.
Example sentence: “She’s my pack, of course she is coming.”
2. A synonym for home, a place to stay that is comfortable, meaning safety and familiarity.
Example sentence: “I’m staying at my pack tonight, sorry.”
3. A collection of items tied up or wrapped; a bundle.
---
what makes a home? is it the structure, the foundation, the blueprints? is it the people?
Max presents as an omega in 2016. Sometimes, it takes a decade to find a home. Sometimes, the home finds you first.

Summary
There are rookies on the grid. Five new rookies, six if you include Liam. Max is absolutely including Liam into the roster, because he still looks so young and excited and nervous about his season, and he keeps spiking his hair up with some silly hair gel which then makes Max want to smooth it back down, and—
There are six rookies on the grid. Which is totally fine, and Max is completely normal about. 100%, totally normal.
It’s his fucking cat instincts that seem to have a problem with them.
Or:
In a world full of animal shifters, Max being able to turn into a cat shouldn't be that weird. It wouldn't be, if Jos hadn't spent Max's entire life convincing the world Max could turn into a lion and not a house cat. Now, Max is stuck wrangling both his cat instincts and six rookies while trying to not let the entire world find out his brand "Unleash the lion" is a lie.
Somehow, Charles is involved in all of this. Max isn't quite sure how.

Summary
“Oh my god, he’s going to take out Verstappen.”
---
"Let me make this clear, Sonny,” Leclerc spat his name mockingly, voice dropping lower, his accent becoming thicker, “you’re only on this grid because your friend is an idiot with too much money. You don’t have the skill to be one of us, and so you’ve turned to reckless idiocy as your only strategy. I don’t care what you do in last place, because it’s where you belong and you’re away from everyone else, but if you even think about going after Max again?”
Leclerc leaned closer, his green eyes blazing as his voice dropped to a cold whisper. “I’m going to make you regret ever coming back here. You think the media hates you now? You think it’s bad now?” He laughed cruelly. “You won’t be able to leave the damn bathroom without being attacked. Your name will be dragged so thoroughly through the mud that no racing team will accept you. You’ll never race again, professionally or recreationally. Anywhere.”Or:
Sonny Hayes thought he had figured out everything in F1, including Max Verstappen. He had not figured out Charles Leclerc, Scuderia Ferrari racing driver.
He learns that the hard way.

Summary
It should have been a simple reconnaissance mission.
“I must say,” Perceval drawled, easily squeezing Wavebender’s wrists and bringing them above his head, trapping them against the concrete, “whenever I’ve imagined this, it hasn’t been in a dusty old warehouse.”
He smirked, leaning down until his nose brushed against Wavebender’s. Their bodies pressed close together, Perceval pressing Wavebender into the ground. This close Wavebender could feel his breath brush against his lips, could even feel the brush of his goatee. Stubbornly, Wavebender ignored the shiver it caused. “It’s usually somewhere more… intimate.”
Or:
Hero Max just needed to find some documents. He found the villain Perceval and a fight instead. Good thing he’s never backed down from a fight, right?
Perceval is the only one happy to be here.

Summary
Max, after races. He copes with losing and the pain of coming alive. He chases after the Mercedes gearbox and realises it's confusing at the top. He wonders what being golden means, and he turns out the lights on the number one.
Or, a love letter to winning, losing, Mercedes dominance trauma, and the 2010s grid.

Summary
Max Verstappen has a crush problem.
Specifically, a Charles Leclerc problem.After months of pining, flirting (he swears it was flirting) and making heart eyes across press conferences, Max finally gathers the courage to confess.
Charles smiles, pats his arm and says the words that end Max’s world:“Of course, Max. You’re a very good friend.”
Heart shattered. Pride bruised. Ego permanently dented.
Enter George Russell — Mercedes’ overachieving, PR-polished golden boy and Max’s long-time frenemy. The man who once called him “emotionally constipated” in a drivers’ briefing.
When Max drunkenly vents about his heartbreak, George, half for amusement and half because he can’t resist chaos proposes a plan:
“Let’s fake date. Make Leclerc see what he’s missing. You get your revenge. I get to prove you do have emotions.”
Against all logic, Max agrees.

A series with some connected and some unconnected Max Verstappen- centric stories where I unleash all the hurt onto this man I don't know. No happiness allowed (except in the end, I don't do unhappy endings)

Summary
Max hates the new Ferrari driver with a fury that makes his teeth grit whenever the thought crosses his mind. He hates Leclerc because he shares the same fierce hunger for victory, the same ruthless drive to grasp it at any cost. But he won’t let someone take that from him. Not someone who hides behind a mask and refuses to own their name.
or
Max hates the faceless driver who drives for Ferrari. At the same time, Max meets his new neighbor — Charles.
