Summary
In a kind of poetic turn of events, Charles Leclerc drives his Scuderia Ferrari Formula One race car into the barriers of the Red Bull Ring on an early July afternoon in 2023 while trying to defend his position against Mercedes’ George Russell in the 52th lap of the race.
Instead, Leclerc’s car goes into understeer, locks up, and runs off track into the barriers before almost anyone is able to react. Leclerc’s race engineer can be heard on the radio requesting a health check- his request will not be fulfilled. In fact he, along with the rest of the world, will not get a reply at all. The 2023 Austrian Grand Prix is red-flagged almost immediately, and it does not resume.
or; charles leclerc crashes into the barriers in austria, and the drivers around him struggle to cope with the consequences

“How far away are we?” Belly asks the paramedic closest to her, the one who’d cradled Belly’s jaw in her hand when they’d first arrived.
“Only a few minutes out, miss,” the paramedic says. “We should be there very shortly. You don’t have to worry. The doctors at the trauma center will take excellent care of you.”
Yeah, she’s sure they will but it’s not really her she’s worried about.

Summary
Max Verstappen loves racing, this is a universal truth.
He’s spent the last decade of his life racing on the biggest stage in the world of motorsport. Through all these years, Max never really got nervous or hesitant. He always knew, another universal truth, that he was going to be a world champion one day. There had been doubts in the paddock, of course, but he never shared them. It was always going to be a matter of time. A matter of when, not if. There had been no room for nervosity, no need for it. Through it all, Max Verstappen had always felt in control of his own future.
That is, until Max Verstappen met Charles Leclerc.

Summary
Years from now, Isabel Fisher née Conklin is going to look back on this moment, this life-defining moment, and question how she’d been able to delude herself for four whole years. How she’d been able to pretend the very sight of him hadn’t been enough to shake up her entire world six months before this summer, last Christmas.
No, the only thing Isabel Fisher née Conklin is going to remember is how devastatingly beautiful Conrad Fisher looks right in this moment.

Summary
If he had to name the place where the story of Max and Charles began, if there was a moment that divided them into Before and After, there would be a few candidates.
But there was only one correct answer. He would never forget the name.
The place is called Val d’Argenton. Stories are still being written there.
Charles likes to tell the story of the incident - turn by turn, infused with poetic drama, detailing every single emotion: frustration, anger, pure spite. Every time he tells it, his smile grows along with the laughter in his eyes, even as his words recount a tale of opposing emotions.
“I never want to go back to Val d’Argenton,” Charles once confessed.
“We’ll never go back there,” he promised, and Charles knew what he meant.
