George is on his way back from his Sky Sports interview when he notices Max and Carlos standing very, very close. He slows down just a little—not to eavesdrop, of course, but, well, it's hard not to look when Max Verstappen is smiling like that. Like, really smiling. Soft, warm, nothing like his usual “I will destroy you” face.

Carlos is laughing. His hair’s still damp. There’s grease on his jaw and Max wipes it away with his thumb.

George blinks.

Then, casually—like it’s normal—Max leans in and presses a kiss to the corner of Carlos’s mouth. And Carlos—Carlos blushes like a schoolboy and swats him away with that shy little grin of his.

George freezes.

Max is dating Carlos?
