user: sofie horner, 19 years old, daughter of red bull team principal christian horner, take the empty seat on red bull’s formula one team. supposed to be alphaturi but there was an empty red bull seat temporarily. then took the seat permanently after proving herself in bahrain pre season testing and getting P2 in the bahrain grand prix. shes the only girl on the grid. shes determined. she proved herself in f2 and is a former f3 champion. but, being the kid of the team principal means there’s nepo claims. but she’s a ruthless, aggressive but clean driver, ready to make her point. she belongs in the game. grew up around engineers, has the knowledge.
assistant: That’s an incredible setup! I’ll start the story with a strong, descriptive opening, setting the scene for Sofie Horner’s journey into Formula 1. Let’s dive in:

---

### **Ruthless Precision**  
*A Formula 1 Story*  

The roar of the RB20’s engine echoed through the Bahrain International Circuit as Sofie Horner tightened her grip on the wheel. The night sky was lit by floodlights, casting long shadows over the tarmac, but the only thing she focused on was the clear stretch of asphalt ahead.  

She wasn’t supposed to be here. At least, that’s what they said—the skeptics, the pundits, the fans who called her nothing more than a lucky beneficiary of her father’s influence. *Nepotism. Favoritism.* The words clung to her name like unwanted baggage, but Sofie had spent her whole life proving them wrong.  

And tonight, under the bright lights of Bahrain, she’d silence them.  

The pre-season tests had already sent waves through the paddock. Lap after lap, with precisionlike control, Sofie had dissected the RB20, finding its strengths, feeling its weaknesses. Engineers muttered in admiration—she understood the car as if it were an extension of herself. Her upbringing in the Red Bull garage had forged that knowledge. While other kids played with dolls, she played with telemetry data, absorbing every sliver of understanding from veteran engineers and mechanics.  

But testing speeds meant nothing in the eyes of the world. The real test was here, in this moment, the inaugural race of the season.  

P2.  

She had started P4, eyes forward, relentless and calculated. Charles had made a bold move early on, but she had countered it with a sharper one. Lewis had tried to hold her off in the middle stint, but her aggression—controlled, measured—cut through the defenses of a seven-time world champion.  

As the final laps approached, she was only behind Max Verstappen. Her teammate. The reigning champion. The man driving the same machine, yet somehow making it fly faster than anyone thought possible.  

But she had kept up.  

Sofie’s radio crackled to life. “Final lap, Sofie. Tires are holding, keep the pressure on.” Gianpiero Lambiase, Max’s engineer, had been assigned to her temporarily since the Red Bull team was still adjusting to her last-minute promotion. She appreciated his directness, his lack of bias. If she was going to prove her worth, she needed the harsh truth, not coddling.  

She eyed the Dutchman ahead. She wasn’t reckless—she knew better than to throw away a podium just to satisfy her pride. But that didn’t mean she would ease off.  

Late braking into Turn 10, smooth on the throttle out of Turn 11. The Red Bull stayed planted, following Max’s line precisely, but there was no opening.  

The checkered flag loomed.  

P2.  

She crossed the line, engine screaming, heart pounding. The first woman in Formula 1 since the sport had become a global phenomenon. The highest race-finishing woman in history.  

Her radio was chaotic—team members roaring their congratulations, her father’s voice laced with pride. “P2, Sofie! That was incredible. Absolutely stunning drive.”  

She barely heard him over the sound of her own breath.  

P2 wasn’t enough. She wanted more.  

As she parked in parc fermé, the roar of the fans became thunderous. She climbed out of the car, shaking with adrenaline, fingers stiff from gripping the wheel with sheer determination. Then, as she removed her helmet, her damp, blonde hair falling messily around her face, she looked ahead at the cameras focusing on her.  

She had made her mark.  

And this was only the beginning.

user: now red bull had to face a choice. were they going to keep her in this seat forever? or demote her back to alphaturi? max verstappan was her team mate, but she was a fill in for checo who was injured. and social media reacts.
assistant: ### **The Decision: Red Bull’s Dilemma**  

A week after the Bahrain Grand Prix, the world was still buzzing about Sofie Horner. Her P2 finish had silenced a few critics, but the debate wasn’t over.  

She was supposed to be a temporary replacement—merely filling the seat while Sergio Pérez recovered from his injury. But after her breathtaking performance in pre-season testing and her ruthless drive in the opening race, Red Bull suddenly had a decision to make.  

Would they keep her in the top seat permanently? Or would they honor their original plan and send her back to AlphaTauri?  

The paddock was split, and so was social media.

### **Media & Social Media Reactions**  

**BREAKING: Red Bull undecided on Sofie Horner’s future—will they keep her or send her back to AlphaTauri?** 🚨🔥  
➡️ *Sky Sports F1*  

➡️ *F1 on ESPN*:  
_"Sofie Horner delivered a statement performance. If P2 on debut isn’t enough to stay, what is?"_ 🔥  

➡️ *Will Buxton*:  
_"Red Bull has an unexpected problem: their ‘temporary’ second driver might just be too good to let go."_  

➡️ *The Race*:  
_"With Sofie Horner not just performing but excelling, is it time Red Bull takes the gamble and makes the young star Max Verstappen’s permanent teammate?"_

### **Social Media Reactions**  

🔴 **@F1Fanatic98:** *"No way Red Bull drops her after that drive. She’s already shown she belongs."*  

🔵 **@VerstappenArmy:** *"Let’s be real, Max is still on another level. But Sofie in that second seat? That could be huge for Red Bull long-term."*  

⚫ **@ChecoFansUnited:** *"She did great, but Checo deserves his spot. He helped Red Bull win the Constructors’—they can’t just throw him out!"*  

🟣 **@SofieHornerNation:** *"A woman just stepped into an F1 car and outperformed half the grid on her debut. Give her that damn seat already. #RuthlessPrecision"*  

👀 **@MercedesFanBoys:** *"If Red Bull doesn’t want her permanently… Toto Wolff is watching. 👀👀👀"*  

---

### **Inside the Red Bull Camp**  

In Milton Keynes, the meeting room was silent as Christian Horner, Helmut Marko, and a few key engineers debated their next move. Max Verstappen sat in the corner, arms crossed, listening. He’d seen rookies come and go, but Sofie was different. She had pace. She had aggression. She had the mindset.  

“She proved herself,” Marko finally said, adjusting his glasses. “But is one race enough?”  

“She knows the car,” Christian responded. His voice was measured, but there was no denying the pride hidden beneath. “And let’s be honest—she’s faster than we expected.”  

A moment of silence followed. Then Max spoke.  

“She’s quick,” he admitted. “And she races smart. If she’s staying, she better be ready to fight.”  

Christian smirked. “She wouldn't be in a Red Bull if she wasn’t.”  

But the question remained—how would Pérez react if they kept her? He was one of the most loyal drivers on the grid, but Red Bull always prioritized one thing: **performance**.  

Would they risk upsetting the team’s chemistry to take a chance on the sport’s next big star? Or would they play it safe, send Sofie back to AlphaTauri, and avoid controversy?  

One thing was clear—Formula 1 had just gotten a lot more interesting.

user: continue with Red Bull’s final decision. what do they do? and how does social media react?
assistant: ### **The Decision: Red Bull’s Gamble**  

The news dropped on a stormy Tuesday morning in Milton Keynes. A single statement from Red Bull’s official social media account sent shockwaves through the F1 world.  

> **Red Bull Oracle Racing Statement**  
> *After careful evaluation of our driver lineup and the exceptional performance demonstrated by Sofie Horner during pre-season testing and the Bahrain Grand Prix, we are pleased to confirm that Sofie will remain in the RB20 for the remainder of the season alongside Max Verstappen. Sergio Pérez will be provided full support as he transitions back into racing at AlphaTauri.*  
>  
> *Welcome to the team, Sofie—on a permanent basis.*  

Four lines. That was all it took to explode the internet.  

---

### **Social Media Reactions**  

🔥 **@F1 on ESPN:** *"It’s official—Sofie Horner remains at Red Bull permanently! Pérez moves to AlphaTauri. A game-changing decision for the grid!"*  

🔴 **@F1FanZone:** *"Max Verstappen and Sofie Horner as full-time teammates?? This season just got a LOT more interesting. Buckle up."*  

⚡ **@PaddockLeaks:** *"Red Bull just pulled a ruthless move. Sofie gets the top seat, and Checo—after helping them win the Constructors’—is moved to AlphaTauri. Is this fair? Or just F1 politics at its finest?"*  

🤯 **@F1StatsGuru:** *"Sofie Horner becomes the first full-time female F1 driver in the modern era. A moment for history. Whatever happens next, she earned this shot."* #RuthlessPrecision🏎️  

👀 **@Lewis44Fans:** *"Another Red Bull controversy??? Damn. Let’s just hope Sofie and Max don’t crash into each other before summer break. 👀"*  

💔 **@ChecoForever:** *"Pérez fans… we ride at dawn. 💔 He deserved better after everything he did for Red Bull."*  

---

### **Inside the Paddock: The Fallout**  

#### **Sofie’s Reaction**  
She read the official statement in the quiet of her Red Bull driver room, the sound of mechanics in the garage humming in the background.  

She’d done it.  

She was here for the long haul.  

No more ‘temporary driver.’ No more questions about whether she belonged. Of course, the pushback would be brutal—she could already picture the criticisms, the nepo accusations growing louder. But at the end of the day, she had beaten most of the grid on debut. A second-place finish against the best drivers in the world.  

They couldn’t question her *talent*.  

Still gripping her phone, she exhaled, and then—smirking slightly—typed out a single tweet.  

> **@SofieHorner**: *See you all in Jeddah. #LetsRace*  

The likes exploded instantly.  

#### **Max Verstappen’s Take**  
Flipping his phone over to avoid the endless notifications, Max leaned back in his chair. He knew this was coming. Sofie had proven quick—he’d felt the pressure from her in Bahrain. And Red Bull didn’t keep slow drivers.  

“I expected this,” he admitted in his press conference when reporters bombarded him with questions about his new teammate. His expression was unreadable. “She’s fast. Thats all that matters in F1.”  

A diplomatic answer. But everyone knew Max never played nice with his teammates for long.  

One way or another, a rivalry would form.  

#### **Sergio Pérez’s Reshuffle**  
His expression was carefully neutral when asked about the decision.  

“I’m grateful to Red Bull for everything,” he said. “This sport is unpredictable. I’ll keep fighting, no matter what.”  

But those who knew him… knew that sting was real. A two-time race winner with Red Bull, dethroned for a rising star.  

At AlphaTauri, he’d have to prove himself all over again.  

---

### **The Conversation Continues**  

F1 media couldn’t talk about anything else.  

🔹 *Did Red Bull make the right decision?*  
🔹 *Will Sofie push Max harder than Checo ever did?*  
🔹 *How will Sergio cope at AlphaTauri?*  
🔹 *Is this the beginning of a legendary F1 rivalry?*  

One thing was undeniable—  
Sofie Horner wasn’t going anywhere.  

And the *real* race had only just begun. 🔥🏎️

Would you like to explore Jeddah next? Maybe Sofie’s first Qualifying battle against Max? A deeper look into the paddock’s reaction? Let me know, and I’ll continue! 🎤🔥
user: deeper look into the paddock’s reaction. Nepotism claims speak loud.
assistant: ### **The Paddock Reacts: Nepotism, Controversy, and a Divided Grid**  

The buzz around Sofie Horner’s permanent promotion to Red Bull spread like wildfire, but not all of it was positive. While some in the sport acknowledged her skill, others whispered the dreaded word that had followed her entire career:  

**Nepotism.**  

She wasn’t just another rookie. She was the daughter of Red Bull’s team principal, Christian Horner. No matter how well she performed on track, there would always be those who believed she had been handed the seat—not earned it.  

And the paddock? The paddock was split.  

---

### **Drivers Speak Out**  

#### **Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes):**  
The seven-time world champion approached the subject carefully when asked about the decision in a press conference ahead of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.  

“I think Sofie showed strong pace in Bahrain, and that’s always great to see from a young driver,” he said. He paused, then added with a slight smirk, “But we’ve seen how Red Bull handles their second seat. We’ll see how long they stick with this decision.”  

It was a subtle dig—Red Bull had a reputation for being ruthless with driver changes—but also a warning. He knew from experience how brutal the politics of F1 could be.  

#### **George Russell (Mercedes):**  
“I think some of the criticism is natural,” Russell admitted in an interview with Channel 4. “When your father is the boss of a team, people are always going to question whether you’re there based on merit. But at the end of the day, Formula 1 is results-driven. If she keeps delivering, that’s all that matters.”  

A diplomatic answer, but the underlying message was clear—Sofie had to *prove it* every single race.  

#### **Lando Norris (McLaren):**  
“Look,” Lando said on a Twitch stream when fans asked for his thoughts. “I raced against Sofie in F2, and she was quick. There’s no doubt she knows what she’s doing. But yeah—it’s Red Bull. People are gonna talk. I get why fans think there’s favoritism.”  

His chat exploded with debates. The nepotism claims weren’t going away anytime soon.  

#### **Fernando Alonso (Aston Martin):**  
The two-time world champion simply chuckled when asked about the controversy. “In Formula 1, people talk more than they drive,” he said. “She will either prove herself, or she won’t.”  

Simple. Cold. True.  

---

### **Crew & Paddock Discussions**  

#### **Inside the FIA Motorhome**  
Several team principals and engineers discussed the move behind closed doors.  

Toto Wolff (Mercedes Team Principal) reportedly rolled his eyes when he first saw the announcement and was overheard telling one of his engineers, “Imagine Christian Horner’s daughter racing for Red Bull. It’s like a movie script waiting to happen.”  

At Ferrari, Fred Vasseur was more pragmatic. “If she’s fast, she stays. If she isn’t, she won’t last a season. Red Bull isn’t sentimental.”  

Meanwhile, Andrea Stella at McLaren reportedly commented, “The biggest challenge she’ll face isn’t proving herself to the grid—it’s proving herself against Max Verstappen.”  

---

### **Social Media Frenzy: Nepotism vs. Talent**  

**🚨 Trending Topics on Twitter**  

- **#RedBullNepoGP** – Critics flood comments with claims that Sofie was only given the seat because of Christian Horner.  
- **#SofieDeservesIt** – Fans defend her, arguing that her Bahrain performance shut down doubters.  
- **#PoorCheco** – Pérez fans outraged, calling the decision unfair after his past contributions.  
- **#MaxVsSofie** – Speculation begins over whether Max Verstappen will accept Sofie as a teammate or crush her like past challengers.  

▶ **@SportsTalkF1:** *"Sofie Horner to Red Bull full-time? Be serious. If her last name wasn’t Horner, would she even be in F1?"* 👀👀  

▶ **@GR63Fan:** *"Russell had to grind his way through Williams before getting his Mercedes seat, while Sofie walks straight into a title-contending car. Tell me again how F1 is ‘fair’?"* 😤  

▶ **@SofieHornerNation:** *"A 19-year-old rookie got P2 in Bahrain, beating world champions and seasoned veterans. If that’s ‘nepotism,’ I want to see more of it. #RuthlessPrecision"* 🤷‍♀️  

▶ **@PitLaneWolvesPodcast:** *"Let’s not be naive—Red Bull *will* favor Max. But if Sofie keeps pulling results, they might have no choice but to back her. This ain't F2 anymore."* 🎙️  

▶ **@F1MemesHub:**  
*Meme of Christian Horner handing Sofie’s Red Bull seat to her like it’s a Christmas gift + caption:*  
*"Job interviews are for people without connections."*  

---

### **Sofie’s Response: Silent but Calculated**  
Amidst the chaos, Sofie stayed quiet.  

No Twitter posts defending herself. No emotional pleas.  

Instead, she focused on the next race.  

She wasn’t here to win an internet argument. She was here to win *races.*  

And when the lights went out in Jeddah, she planned to answer every doubter the only way she knew how:  

By proving she belonged.  

**To be continued… 🔥🏎️**

Would you like me to continue with Jeddah—her next battle against Max and the grid? Maybe a deeper look at how Checo’s fans and Red Bull’s internal politics unfold? Let me know! 🚀🔥
user: a deeper look at how Checo’s fans and Red Bull’s internal politics unfold. meanwhile sofie has hit NHL twitter. because of one new jersey devils player, josh carter. who has no clue about F1. but is shooting his shot.
assistant: ### **The Fallout: Checo’s Fans and Red Bull’s Internal Politics**  

Sofie Horner’s permanent seat at Red Bull was official, but in the paddock, the storm had only just begun.  

While the world debated whether she deserved the seat, Sergio Pérez’s devoted fanbase—**Los Checolovers**, as they called themselves—were in complete meltdown.  

---

### **Checo’s Fans: Rage and Chaos Online**  

For many Mexican and Latin American F1 fans, Checo wasn’t just a driver; he was a symbol. A fighter. The underdog who clawed his way through the ranks, who accepted a second-driver role behind Max Verstappen and still managed to win races.  

And now? He had been shuffled off to AlphaTauri like an afterthought.  

---

**🚨 Twitter Flooded with Checo Support: #JusticeForCheco Trends Globally**  

💔 **@ChecoForLife:**  
*"Disgusting. Checo helped Red Bull win two Constructors’ Titles, support Max’s Championships, and this is how they repay him? A literal *teenager* takes his seat?!"*  

🤬 **@MexicanRacingFans:**  
*"They made him play team orders, they forced him to back Max, and then they kicked him out. Red Bull never truly respected Checo."*  

🇲🇽 **@ChecoMexico:**  
*"Shame on Red Bull. Sergio deserves better. Vamos, Checo! We ride with you."*  

👀 **@F1DramaSpot:**  
*"I give it a *month* before Red Bull regrets this. Sofie is fast, yeah, but she’s no experienced race-winner like Checo. Big mistake."*  

🔥 **@F1MemeBoss:**  
*Meme featuring Checo photoshopped into a Ferrari suit with the caption:*  
*"Ferrari, call him. Do it."*  

---

### **Inside Red Bull’s Camp: A House Divided**  

While the internet waged war, the atmosphere inside Red Bull Racing HQ in Milton Keynes was tense.  

Checo’s side of the garage was furious. His engineers, mechanics—many of whom had been with him since 2021—felt blindsided. They had sacrificed countless hours to make Checo competitive, only to see him handed over to AlphaTauri while a rookie stepped into his car.  

Behind closed doors, whispers spread:  

- **Did Christian Horner push this move to promote his daughter?**  
- **Was Helmut Marko fully onboard, or did he have doubts?**  
- **Would Max Verstappen tolerate a new, aggressive teammate or crush her quickly?**  

Christian Horner stood firm in meetings, insisting that **this was a performance-based decision**—not a personal one.  

“She proved she belongs,” he told the press when questioned about the nepotism claims. “At Red Bull, we prioritize results, and Sofie delivered in Bahrain. That’s all there is to it.”  

Not everyone believed him.  

Inside the team, another subplot was brewing: **Red Bull’s sponsorship partners were thrilled about Sofie.**  

A female driver in a championship-contending car? Major brands saw dollar signs. Red Bull’s marketing division was already designing campaigns around her.  
Some *suspected* this played a role in the decision—whether Red Bull admitted it or not.  

Meanwhile, Checo’s performance at AlphaTauri would be under a microscope. If he struggled, Red Bull could justify their decision. But **what if he excelled?** What if he started outperforming Sofie?  

If that happened, the controversy could explode all over again.  

---

### **Meanwhile… NHL Twitter Discovers Sofie Horner??**  

As the F1 world burned, another corner of the sports internet had no idea what was going on—until one *very* unexpected person entered the conversation:  

#### **Josh Carter, New Jersey Devils’ Rising Star Forward.**  

The 23-year-old NHL player wasn’t an F1 fan. At all. But apparently, he was a Sofie Horner fan.  

It started innocently enough:  

Josh was scrolling through Twitter one evening when her picture popped up. Sofie, still in her fireproofs, hair a mess, holding up the P2 trophy in Bahrain. She looked fierce. Determined.  

His first thought? ***Damn.***  

So, naturally, he **shot his shot**.  

---

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Okay, I don’t know a *single* thing about F1, but Sofie Horner is absolutely carrying the sport right now. Someone explain this to me before I start watching."*  

The F1 side of Twitter exploded.  

👀 **@F1Trolls:** *"NOT AN NHL PLAYER TRYING TO SLIDE INTO SOFIE’S DMs. THE WAY I SCREAMED."*  

😂 **@HockeyAndHorsepower:** *"Josh Carter just found out about F1 because he thinks Sofie Horner is hot. This is hilarious."*  

👑 **@SofieHornerUpdates:** *"She’s literally fighting for her damn career against the most ruthless teammate lineup in history, and meanwhile, NHL Twitter is trying to wife her up. Dead."*  

🤔 **@F1HockeyCrossover:** *"Wait… imagine Sofie pulls up to a Devils game? The worlds *collide*."*  

---

### **Josh Carter, However, Wasn’t Done.**  

One hour later:  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Okay, so this Verstappen guy sounds terrifying. Who do I need to fight to make sure Sofie gets a fair shot?"*  

The replies went wild.  

💀 **@RedBullInsider:** *"Bro, even NHL enforcers don’t want to fight Max."*  

🥶 **@MaxsPurpleSector:** *"Sir, I don’t think you understand what you’re getting into."*  

---

### **Sofie’s Response… or Lack Thereof.**  

Sofie saw it. Her notifications were spamming nonstop.  

But instead of replying, she simply *liked* Josh’s first tweet.  

That was enough to send NHL Twitter spiraling.  

Josh, being an absolute menace, replied to it.  

**@JoshCarter91:** *"That’s a W. I’m getting a Red Bull hat."*  

The memes were relentless.  

And just like that, **Josh Carter: Accidental F1 Superfan** was born.  

---

### **The Season Moves Forward… With More Drama to Come**  

Behind the scenes, the *real* war in F1 was still unfolding:  

- Red Bull vs. Public Perception  
- Checo vs. His Undignified AlphaTauri Move  
- Max vs. A New, Ambitious Teammate  
- Sofie vs. Nepotism Claims—Every. Single. Weekend.  

But meanwhile?  

One random New Jersey Devils player had just bonded half of hockey Twitter and F1 Twitter in the most unexpected alliance.  

F1 fans were locked in their drama.  

Hockey fans were analyzing Sofie’s previous races just to impress Josh.  

And Sofie? She had **Jeddah Qualifying** tomorrow.  

Whatever happened on the track, one thing was certain—**all eyes were on her now.**  

---

### **To Be Continued…** 📖🔥🏎️🏒  

Would you like to see Sofie and Josh actually interact more? Or should we focus on the next race—the chaos that is Jeddah? Let me know what direction you’d like! 🚀🔥
user: focus on the next race—the chaos that is Jeddah. where sofie takes p2 again. her dads reaction, pit wall reaction, social media reaction & josh carter clueless reaction
assistant: ### **JEDDAH: CHAOS, SPEED, AND SOFIE HORNER’S P2 MASTERCLASS**  

The neon lights of Jeddah reflected off the marina as the second race of the season began under the night sky. The Jeddah Corniche Circuit—a high-speed street track with blind corners and razor-thin margins for error—was known for being brutal on rookies.    

And yet, against all odds, **Sofie Horner** delivered *again*.  

**P2.**  

Two races. Two podiums. No flukes. No luck. Just raw speed and execution.  

For the second time in a row, she proved she wasn’t just her father’s daughter. She was here to fight.  

But as the podium ceremony wrapped up, the world reacted in *very* different ways.  

---

### **RED BULL REACTS: THE PIT WALL ERUPTION**  

As soon as Sofie crossed the line in second, the Red Bull pit wall exploded in celebration. Mechanics high-fived, engineers cheered—**except for the key figures watching with calculated expressions.**  

#### **Christian Horner: Proud Dad Mode Activated**  
Christian exhaled as he took off his headset. He kept his celebration controlled—after all, this was still a Max Verstappen-dominated night—but anyone who knew him could tell he was barely containing his pride.    

“She’s done it again. That’s a flawless drive,” he muttered, shaking hands with race strategists as the pit wall burst into applause.    

His daughter had sent every critic another message: She belonged.  

#### **Helmut Marko: Silent Approval**  
Helmut Marko, Red Bull’s ever-critical advisor, simply nodded as he watched the final results roll in. Sofie had executed a near-perfect race, keeping pace with Max while holding off an aggressive challenge from Charles Leclerc.  

She had Max Verstappen’s car. Yes. But to *maximize* it like this? That was another story.  

“She’s proving us right,” Marko said in his usual measured tone. “She’s more than just a placeholder.”  

#### **Max Verstappen: The Teammate Problem**  
Max, sipping from his water bottle as he watched Sofie’s second-place celebration, remained neutral.  

She had finished behind him again—but she was getting *too close for comfort*.  

Any other Red Bull second driver would have been nearly ten seconds behind him by now, but Sofie was keeping him honest.  

Would she be like Checo, playing wingman when needed?  

…Or would she be the first teammate in years to *challenge him*?  

Max didn’t care for pit wall politics. He only cared about winning. If the team started favoring Sofie in any way, things could get *ugly*.  

For now? **He’d watch.**  

---

### **SOCIAL MEDIA REACTION: THE INTERNET IMPLODES AGAIN**  

🚨 **@F1 on ESPN:**  
*"BACK-TO-BACK P2s for Sofie Horner! The rookie continues to deliver in stunning fashion at Jeddah!"*  

🏎️ **@RedBullNation:**  
*"SHE’S ACTUALLY HIM. Sofie just did that under max pressure, on a street circuit, holding off Leclerc. Give her respect NOW."*

*"Are we witnessing the rise of F1’s next superstar? Sofie Horner proving the doubters wrong, race after race."*  

😡 **@ChecoLoyalists:**

📸 **@WTF1:**

📝 **@F1Drama Theory:**  
*"The real test isn't her performance. It’s how Max reacts when she inevitably *beats* him. Then we’ll see who gets team support."*

### **JOSH CARTER: CLUELESS HOCKEY BOY REACTS TO JEDDAH**  

Meanwhile, over in the hockey world…  

Josh Carter had ***absolutely no idea what was going on.***  

And yet, there he was, watching the final laps of the grand prix on his phone in the Devils’ locker room—because his entire Twitter feed had been screaming about Sofie Horner.  

When she crossed the line in P2 for the second time this season, Josh—who was still learning how F1 worked—took to Twitter *immediately*.  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Wait, she came SECOND AGAIN?? Is that like… super hard or something??"*  

The F1 side of Twitter *pounced*.  

💀 **@F1Gatekeeping:**  
*"YES. IT. IS. Please educate yourself before you tweet, sir."*  

🤣 **@LandoLover12:**  
*"Josh Carter discovering F1 in real-time is the best thing to happen this season."*  

😂 **@HockeyToF1:**  
*"Bro doesn’t even know that Sofie is making HISTORY and he’s just casually tweeting like it’s nothing."*  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91 (replying to himself):**  
*"Okay, so I’m learning. She has a terrifying teammate. These cars look like fighter jets. And apparently Jeddah is super dangerous. This sport is WILD."*  

But then he made *the* tweet that sent both F1 and NHL Twitter spiraling:

*"Look, I don’t know how this sport works exactly, but Sofie Horner is insane. Someone tell her she deserves all the W’s."*  

👀 **@F1GossipZone:**  
*"Ayo?? Someone tell Sofie. We got a situation brewing."*  

🚨😱 **@HockeyF1Chaos:**  
*"JOSH CARTER JUST PUBLICLY SIMPED FOR SOFIE AGAIN. WE’RE REALLY DOING THIS."*

### **SOFIE’S PHONE LIGHTS UP**  

Sitting in the post-race media pen, still buzzing from her second-place finish, Sofie absentmindedly scrolled through Twitter until—  

*Oh.*  

She blinked at Josh Carter’s tweet. A dumb little smirk tugged at the corner of her lips before she turned off her phone and leaned into the microphone in front of her.  

"—uh, sorry, what was the question?" she asked the reporter, shaking her thoughts away.  

The journalist chuckled. "I was asking how you handled the pressure from Leclerc in the final laps."  

Sofie recovered quickly, professional as ever. "I knew I had the pace, so it was all about managing the tires smartly and not making mistakes. That’s key on a track like this—one wrong move, and your race is over."  

"And back-to-back podiums must feel *amazing*," another reporter added.  

She smiled. "*Yeah, I can’t complain.*"  

But inside?  

She knew the pressure was far from over.  

The skeptics wouldn’t stop. Max wouldn’t stop. And if she wanted that *first* win, she’d have to take it—whether Red Bull wanted her to or not.  

But yeah…    

She wasn’t sure what was *stranger*—being in the middle of an F1 political firestorm…  

Or finding out that some random hockey player was live-tweeting her career like a personal fan club.  

Either way, Jeddah was just the beginning.  

And the real war?  

Had only just begun.

assistant: ### **Post-Race Press Conference Chaos: Sofie Horner, Josh Carter, and Brutal Honesty**  

The Jeddah podium trio—**Max Verstappen (P1), Sofie Horner (P2), and Charles Leclerc (P3)**—were seated under the bright lights of the post-race press conference. Across from them, rows of journalists, cameras, and microphones awaited, eager to dissect the night’s results.  

On Sofie’s other side, **Lando Norris** sat slouched in his chair, having finished P4 after a gripping fight with Carlos Sainz. He wasn’t technically required to be there, but McLaren PR had nudged him into it for the extra exposure.  

The usual questions came first.  

**For Max:** “You had control of the race from start to finish—are you unstoppable this year?”  

Max smirked. “I don’t believe in ‘unstoppable.’ But yeah, it was a good race.”  

**For Charles:** “Ferrari showed strong pace again; how confident are you for the coming races?”  

Charles nodded. “We’re getting closer. These street circuits are always tricky, but the car feels good.”  

Then, of course, they turned to Sofie.  

**"Back-to-back podiums! Considering all the… discussion about your promotion, how good does it feel to prove people wrong?"**  

Sofie didn’t even hesitate. She leaned into the mic, voice steady.  

“I don’t care about proving people wrong. I care about proving myself right.”  

The room noticeably tensed—**Sofie Horner didn’t do polished PR answers.** She was blunt, always had been, and she wasn’t changing now.  

Max *tilted his head slightly*, amused. Charles bit back a small smile. Lando muttered under his breath: *savage*.  

The next question was directed at Sofie again—**but nobody saw it coming.**  

**“Sofie, I have to ask—have you seen what Josh Carter from the New Jersey Devils has been tweeting about you these past few days?”**  

Her face remained neutral, but internally, she nearly choked.  

🎤 “Excuse me?” she asked, eyebrows slightly raised.    

A few reporters chuckled. One journalist elaborated.  

**"Josh Carter—NHL player. Ice hockey. He’s been tweeting about you non-stop. He called you ‘insane’ after this race. He’s sort of… learning F1 because of you."**  

The room waited.  

Lando, already grinning, leaned closer to his mic, whispering dramatically, *“Sofie’s got a superfan.”*  

Max blinked in slight confusion. “Who?”  

Charles looked amused but stayed quiet, clearly enjoying where this was going.  

Sofie, on the other hand? She was completely unfiltered. **Brutally honest. Always would be.**  

She adjusted her mic and said, deadpan:    

🎤 **“I have absolutely no idea who that is.”**  

Silence. A brief, stunned pause.  

And then *absolute chaos*.  

Reporters laughed. Charles openly grinned. Lando just about *fell out of his chair*. Max nodded like that was a reasonable answer and took a sip of his water.  

The journalist, slightly taken aback, pressed further. **“Wait, so you don’t watch NHL? You don’t know what team he plays for?”**  

Sofie shook her head. "Not a clue."  

Lando was actually wheezing. “Oh my God, this is amazing.”  

Sofie shrugged and continued, completely undeterred.  

🎤 **“I barely even know where New Jersey *is*, to be honest.”**  

*The room exploded again.*  

Lando immediately covered his mouth, eyes wide, as if trying not to lose it completely. Charles steepled his fingers against his lips, grinning mischievously. Max simply raised an eyebrow.  

The journalists? Absolutely thriving. One of them muttered, *"This is going to break the internet."*  

**Sofie, completely unfazed, took a sip of water and waited for the next question.**  

Little did she know, halfway across the world, *Josh Carter’s entire life had just changed forever.*  

---

### **Meanwhile: Josh Carter Sees It All In Real Time**  

Josh Carter had been sitting in the Devils team lounge, absentmindedly checking Twitter when **his mentions absolutely detonated**.   

Notifications *piled in by the dozens per second.* Something was happening.  

Then… he saw the clip.  

🚨 **Tweet from @F1Live:**  
*"Sofie Horner when asked about NHL player Josh Carter’s viral tweets about her: ‘I have absolutely no idea who that is.’"* 💀💀💀  

Josh clicked the video.  

Watched her say it.  

Then heard her **double down.**  

>*“I barely even know where New Jersey is.”*  

Josh stared at his screen. Blinking. Processing.  

Then, very calmly, he put his phone down, rubbed his face, and whispered—  

*"Oh. I’m in love."*  

---

### **Social Media Explodes: NHL vs. F1 Twitter Collision**  

🔥 **@HockeyF1Crossover:**  
*"JOSH CARTER JUST GOT HUMILIATED ON AN INTERNATIONAL F1 BROADCAST AND HE IS LOVING IT."*  

🤣 **@PuckToPitlane:**  
*"That man got cooked *to ash* and his only reaction was deciding she's the love of his life. Unreal."*  

📸 **@SportsCenterHQ:**  
*Meme of Josh Carter staring blankly at his phone with ‘She doesn’t even know I exist’ captions flooding in.*   

💀 **@F1Shitpost:**  
*"JOSH CARTER IF YOU SEE THIS JUST KNOW WE ARE LAUGHING OUR ASSES OFF BUT ALSO SUPPORTING YOU FROM A DISTANCE."*  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Listen. That was brutal. But also? She’s incredible. No notes."* 😳🏎️  

🤣 *Lando Norris liked this tweet.*  

---

### **Sofie’s Phone Lights Up Again**  

On her way back to the paddock, still processing one hell of a race, Sofie’s phone vibrated with a text from her Red Bull media manager.    

📲 **Media Manager:** *"Uh. So. Your reaction to that NHL dude has gone viral… again."*  

She sighed, unlocking her phone to a *flood* of quote tweets and memes. She skimmed one:  

*"Josh Carter after being brutally rejected in front of millions:*"  
-> *Attached: Some tragic ‘guy staring out the rainy window’ gif.*  

Sofie huffed an amused breath through her nose. She wasn’t *trying* to be mean—she was just **brutally honest** when caught off guard.  

To be fair, though… she kinda *wanted* to see his reaction.   

So she checked his account.  

Saw his latest tweet.  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Listen. That was brutal. But also? She’s incredible. No notes."* 😳🏎️  

She stared at it for a moment.  

Then, smirking, she hit **like.**  

And *that* was enough to send the internet into *another* tornado.  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED...**  

Would you like the next chapter to focus on Sofie and Max clashing on track? More Josh Carter clueless antics? Maybe even an awkward in-person meeting between them? Let me know, and I'll keep this party going! 😏🏎️🔥
user: focus on Sofie and Max clashing on track, next race, australia.
assistant: ### **Australia: Sofie vs. Max – The Red Bull War Begins**  

Melbourne. The Albert Park Circuit.  

Sofie had grown up watching this race. The energy, the tension—it was one of the most iconic stops on the Formula 1 calendar. And now, for the first time, **she was on the grid under the Red Bull banner, ready to fight again.**  

But this time, things were different.  

Two races into the season, Sofie had done something no Red Bull second driver had in years—kept up with Max Verstappen.  

And that? That was a *problem*.  

Max had been dominant for seasons now. He was used to having a teammate who stayed *far* enough behind to support him but never quite *close enough* to be a threat.  

Sofie? She wasn’t backing down.  

**If Bahrain and Jeddah had been statements, Australia was about to be the first shot fired in an all-out war.**  

---

### **Qualifying: A Statement on Saturday**  

📢 **Q3 Final Results:**  

**P1. Max Verstappen – 1:16.203**  
**P2. Sofie Horner – 1:16.217 (+0.014s)**  
**P3. Charles Leclerc – 1:16.310**  
**P4. Lando Norris – 1:16.457**  

Max had taken pole, but by a microscopic **0.014 seconds** over Sofie.  

They had been evenly matched *all session*.  

In the garage, the tension was *thick*. Engineers, mechanics—everyone knew this wasn’t going to be a clean, simple formation race tomorrow. Red Bull had a *real* battle brewing inside their own garage.  

And Helmut Marko? He was already bracing for impact.  

---

### **Race Day: When Teammates Become Rivals**  

**Lights out.**  

Max got a great launch off the line, but Sofie **immediately tucked into his slipstream**, defending from Leclerc and Norris behind.  

The race was supposed to be straightforward. Red Bull had the fastest car. They should control the race.  

But Sofie **wasn’t interested in playing second driver.**  

By Lap 5, she was still **right behind Max, keeping DRS range**, refusing to lose touch.  

**Lap 14 – The First Flashpoint**  

The team had given the standard call: *“Hold position for now.”*  

But on the radio, Sofie’s voice came through **sharp and clear**.  

🟡 **Sofie:** *"I’m faster. Let me race."*  

🟡 **Red Bull Pit Wall:** *"Copy. Just manage tires, Sofie."*  

That wasn’t a no…but it also wasn’t a yes.  

The paddock **immediately picked up on it.**  

#### **Sky Sports Commentary Booth:**  
*"She’s backing herself already! Sofie Horner isn’t looking to play support—she *wants* this win."*  

---

**Lap 22 – Sofie Attacks**  

They were side by side.  

Coming down into **Turn 3**, Sofie **sent it down the inside**, late-braking to perfection, wheels inches from Max’s. The RB20 twitched slightly, but she held firm.  

For a *brief* moment, she was **ahead**.  

But Max wasn’t the kind of driver to just let that happen.    

On the next DRS zone, **he retaliated HARD**, pulling alongside her into Turn 9 and squeezing her wide just enough to force her to back off.    

It was aggressive. Nearly over the edge.  

But for Max? This was **his** team. And he wasn’t letting some rookie—**even one named Horner**—play hero against him.  

**The onboards were INSANE. Twitter exploded.**  

---

### **Social Media Reacts To Max vs. Sofie**  

🔥 **@F1onESPN:**  
*"WOAH. WHEEL-TO-WHEEL. TEAMMATES TURNED RIVALS. RED BULL HAS A PROBLEM!"*  

🎙️ **@WTF1:**  
*"Max squeezing Sofie like that? Ruthless. But she’s holding her *own*. This is something we haven’t seen at Red Bull in YEARS."*  

😂 **@F1Memes:**  
*Meme of Christian Horner with a headache*  
*"This man is watching his two drivers go to war and one of them is **his daughter.**"*  

💀 **@ChecoFanbase:**  
*"Nah give Checo his seat back, Red Bull is about to IMPLODE with this rivalry."*  

👀 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Is she ALLOWED to just *fight* her own teammate like this??? This sport is insane."*  

🍿 **@LandoFan69:**  
*"ME WATCHING THIS BATTLE, SCREAMING AT MY TV."*  

---

### **Final Laps – No Team Orders**  

**Lap 48:** With just **10 laps to go**, Sofie was still pushing Max, keeping the pressure on when—  

🚨 **"SAFETY CAR! SAFETY CAR!"** 🚨  

A crash from Logan Sargeant brought out a full safety car, meaning **a late restart battle** between the two Red Bulls was inevitable.  

The pits stayed quiet—neither Max nor Sofie changed tires. It would be a straight fight to the end.  

---

### **Lap 54 – The Restart**  

GREEN FLAG! 🚥  

Max **immediately jumped** on the power, but Sofie was **right there**—one last opportunity to go for the win.  

🥵 The tension was **insane.**  

She stayed with him through the first two sectors, looking for a mistake. Looking for the smallest gap.  

But **Max Verstappen didn’t make mistakes.**  

Despite her **flawless** drive, despite pushing him harder than any Red Bull teammate had in *years*—  

**Max still crossed the line first.**  

🥇 **P1. Max Verstappen**  
🥈 **P2. Sofie Horner (+0.9s)**  
🥉 **P3. Charles Leclerc (+4.5s)**  

Once again, she had finished **right behind him**.  

But this time?  

It wasn’t just *another* podium.  

This time, she had *challenged him*.  

And **everyone** knew—this was **only the beginning**.  

---

### **The Red Bull Pit Wall: Chaos and Concern**  

Christian Horner took off his headset **and buried his face in his hands.**  

This was a nightmare. His **daughter and his star driver** were already fighting, and it was only Race 3.  

Helmut Marko, watching quietly, sighed. "We knew this would happen eventually."  

The engineers were **divided**—some were impressed by Sofie, some were worried about what it meant for team dynamics.  

And Max?  

He climbed out of the car, **stopping just briefly at the cooldown room** to look at Sofie.  

"You really went for it," he said, voice unreadable.  

Sofie just shrugged. "Of course I did."  

They locked eyes.  

Max smirked slightly. "Good."  

And then? He walked away.  

---

### **Press Conference: The Rivalry Officially Begins**  

💬 **Journalist:** *"Max, you had to actually defend hard today. Thoughts on Sofie’s challenge?"*  

🎤 **Max:** *"She’s quick. But winning is different from racing hard."*  

💬 **Journalist:** *"Sofie, do you think you could’ve won with a couple more laps?"*  

🎤 **Sofie:** *"I don’t think. I know."*  

**BOOM.**🔥  

The war had begun.  

Red Bull had a new problem.  

Would **they** control Max and Sofie?  

Or would **Sofie** force Red Bull to support *her*?  

Either way…  

Formula 1 had just found **its next great rivalry.**  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED...**  

What’s next? Should we explore the behind-the-scenes Red Bull drama? Social media aftermath? Sofie’s next move? Let me know!! 🔥🏎️
user: explore the behind-the-scenes Red Bull drama. josh carter giving his two cents. and social media reaction. sofie then does something crazy and tweets at josh "if i win miami, u can take me out, deal?"
assistant: ### **Behind the Scenes: Red Bull’s Absolute Meltdown**  

The Australian Grand Prix had ended, but Red Bull Racing was **not celebrating.**  

Yes, they’d secured another **P1-P2 finish**. Yes, Max Verstappen had won. But in the garage, the engineers and strategists were **stressed beyond belief.**  

Because Red Bull didn’t like having **teammates who fought each other.**  

**And Sofie Horner?** She wasn’t playing the game they wanted.  

---

### **The Post-Race Debrief: Tension in the Red Bull Camp**  

The meeting room in the Red Bull hospitality suite was **quiet but thick with tension.** Everyone knew this wasn’t going to be a normal debrief.  

Max sat at the table, arms crossed, looking at the timing sheets. Sofie? She was just taking a sip of her water, acting completely unfazed even though she damn well *knew* she had just **shaken** the team dynamics to their core.  

Christian Horner **pinched the bridge of his nose.**  

🟡 **Christian:** *"Okay. Let’s talk about what just happened out there."*  

Max didn’t hesitate. He looked straight at Sofie.  

🔴 **Max:** *"You nearly took both of us out at Turn 3."*  

Sofie **arched a brow**. "And? You squeezed me off track in the next sector. That’s just racing, right?"  

Helmut Marko **sighed.** "It was close. Too close."  

🟡 **Engineering Director:** "We didn’t want this race to turn into a battle between teammates. The priority is securing our positions, not risking unnecessary collisions."  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"If I have the pace, I’m not sitting behind just because it makes things *easier* for the team."*  

A *heavy* silence followed.  

Because she was **right.**  

And, worse? *She had the leverage to say it.*  

She had already **proven** her skill in three races. If Red Bull tried to control her too much, the public backlash would be *immense.*  

🟡 **Christian:** *"Look, we just need to make sure—"*  

🔴 **Max (cutting in):** *"She’s not backing down. I respect that. But next time, if we collide, that’s on her."*  

Sofie didn’t even blink.  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Then maybe don’t crash into me?"*  

**BOOM.**🔥  

The room *visibly* tensed as Max gave a slow smirk. The rivalry was **REAL.**  

Christian **exhaled sharply.**   

This was **going to be a long season.**  

---

### **Social Media Explodes: Red Bull’s Civil War Begins**  

🔥 **@F1onESPN:**  
*"The tension between Max Verstappen and Sofie Horner is palpable. Is Red Bull on the verge of civil war?"*  

🚨 **@SkySportsF1:**  
*"Red Bull wanted a solid second driver. Instead, they have a title fight happening inside their own garage."*  

😂 **@F1Memes:**  
*Meme of Christian Horner rubbing his temples*  
-> *“This man did NOT expect his daughter to be the problem.”*  

🔴 **@MaxFanboy44:**  
*"Sofie needs to *learn* that this isn’t F2. She can’t go wheel-to-wheel with Max and expect him to back down."*  

💀 **@F1Chaos:**  
*"Red Bull is about to enter its own civil war and we’re all here for it!"*  

👀 **@ChecoLoyalist:**  
*"Y’all turned on Checo for Sofie Horner and NOW you wanna complain? Can’t make this up."*  

---

### **Josh Carter Gives His Dumb, Clueless Take**  

Meanwhile, over in New Jersey, good old **Josh Carter** had been watching the drama unfold on Twitter—because his mentions were still **chaos** from his Sofie tweets.  

And once again, like the absolute himbo he was, **he just had to comment.**  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Wait, so teammates in F1 *aren’t* supposed to fight each other like that? That was awesome."*  

**Replies went FERAL.**

*"Josh, I swear to god, do you think F1 is just WWE with wheels??"*

*Josh Carter. Accidentally injecting himself into F1’s most dramatic season.*  

---

### **And Then Sofie Horner Did The Craziest Thing Yet.**  

She had kept *quiet* on Twitter after the race. Ignored the headlines. Let the media swirl with speculation.  

Until, out of nowhere, at 11 PM **Miami time**, she did *this*:  

🚨 **@SofieHorner:**  
*"If I win Miami, you can take me out, deal?"*

Josh, who had *just finished dinner*, checked his phone and IMMEDIATELY CHOKED ON HIS DRINK.

*"Excuse me??"*  

Replying to himself:  
*"What’s the rule on manifesting a Grand Prix win??? Does anyone know?"*  

Meanwhile, inside the Devils’ locker room, his teammates were **howling.**

user: Red Bull’s PR nightmare. Sofie Horner. Except, she was Sofie Horner. She was pretty, she was petite, she was her fathers daughter. She was marketing gold. She was the media darling. Had been since Red Bull used to post "keeping up with sofie videos" on the main accounts. The OG Red Bull fans had grown up with her, watched her from karting now all the way up to F1. But Sofie had done something really unhinged. She'd bet a DATE on a grand prix win. And Red Bull didn't know how to manage that. Her dad?? He had a lot to say.
assistant: ### **Red Bull’s PR Nightmare: Sofie Horner Did WHAT?!**  

Red Bull Racing had **handled chaos before**.  

Driver swaps, team tensions, controversial decisions—it was part of their DNA.  

But this?  

This was **something else entirely.**  

Because **Sofie Horner**, their media darling, their history-making, record-breaking golden girl, had just **bet a date on a Grand Prix win.**  

And now? **The entire world was watching Miami like it was the season finale of a reality show.**   

---

### **The PR Team? Losing Their Minds.**  

Inside Red Bull’s marketing department in Milton Keynes, the moment **Sofie pressed send on that tweet**, alarms might as well have gone off.    

Every social media manager’s phone lit up. The engagement numbers exploded **to an absolutely absurd degree**.  

📉 **Red Bull Crisis Management Chat: 489+ New Messages**  

🟢 *Marketing Director:* *"Okay, what the HELL did she just do."*  

🔴 *PR Rep #1:* *"She went full unhinged. Full social chaos. I don’t even know how to respond to this."*  

🟡 *PR Rep #2:* *"Technically… engagement is at an all-time high?"*  

🟞 *Social Media Intern (panicking):* *"THE @F1 OFFICIAL ACCOUNT JUST POSTED ABOUT IT. WE CANNOT CONTROL THIS."*    

🔴 **PR Rep #1:** *"WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE MANAGING A FORMULA 1 x NHL CROSSOVER LOVE STORY. WHAT IS HAPPENING."*  

PR was scrambling. Sponsorship teams were calling in.  

Monster Energy? Interested.  
TAG Heuer? Thinking of a watch deal.  
PUMA? Already considering some weird, **limited-edition ‘Win a Date’ merch.**  

The problem? **Red Bull had NO IDEA if they should lean into this or shut it down.**    

*Because Sofie Horner wasn’t just some driver.*  

She was **Christian Horner’s daughter.**

And *that* made things **ten times worse.**  

---

### **Christian Horner? About to Have a Stroke.**  

Christian had **survived** all kinds of media storms.   

Seb vs. Webber.  
Multi-21.  
The years of being told Mercedes would dominate them forever.  

But nothing—**NOTHING**—could have prepared him for **his own daughter** betting **a freaking date** on an F1 win.  

The moment he saw the tweet, he **froze.**  

Then he exhaled sharply and did what every father would do in this situation—  

**Christian Horner stormed to find his daughter.**  

---

**LOCATION: Red Bull Motorhome, Miami GP Week**  

Sofie was **mid-lunch**, calmly eating her food, when her father walked in, expression somewhere between exasperation and disbelief.    

🟡 **Christian Horner:** *"Sofie."*  

She looked up—innocent, as if she hadn’t just detonated F1 social media. “Yeah?”  

🟡 **Christian:** *"Do you want to explain to me why every journalist in the paddock is asking me about your dating life?"*  

She paused. Blinked once. “Oh. That.”  

🟡 **Christian:** *"YES. *THAT.*"*  

She took another bite of her salad. “It’s not that deep, Dad.”  

Christian *pinched the bridge of his nose*. “Not that deep? Sofie, you just bet a DATE on a GRAND PRIX WIN. Do you know what you’ve done?! The marketing team is in chaos, sponsors are calling, and Red Bull is **not equipped** to handle this!”  

Sofie **shrugged.** “Sounds like a *them* problem.”  

🟡 **Christian:** *“It’s a ME problem. Because you’re my daughter. And if anyone asks me about—what’s his name, Josh Carter?!—one more time, I’m going to LOSE it.”*  

Sofie **laughed.** "Oh my god, Dad. Stop being dramatic."  

🟡 **Christian (dead serious):** *"If you actually win Miami, this becomes a REAL problem. We literally have to figure out how Red Bull deals with a ‘Win a Date’ situation. I can’t believe I’m saying those words about an F1 race."*  

Sofie **leaned back. Smirked.**  

🟡 **Sofie:** *"Then aren’t you lucky I plan on winning?"*  

Christian *buried his face in his hands.*    

Helmut Marko, **who had just walked by, overhearing everything**, **chuckled.**  

🟡 **Helmut Marko:** *"She’s got confidence. I like that."*  

Christian **glared at him.** "*YOU’RE NOT HELPING, HELMUT.*"  

---

### **Media Day: Journalists Asking All the Wrong Questions**  

Sofie showed up for her pre-race press obligations in Miami like **nothing had happened.**  

She sat down next to Max Verstappen for a **joint press conference**, fully prepared for the usual race weekend questions.  

Of course, *that’s not what happened.*  

The journalists were **salivating** over the situation.  

🎤 **Journalist #1:**  
*"Sofie, let’s address the elephant in the room. Your tweet about winning Miami—do you stand by that bet?"*    

Sofie? **Unfazed.**  

🎤 **Sofie:** *"Yeah? Why wouldn’t I?"*  

Max actually let out a **small laugh**, shaking his head. He was going to enjoy watching this unfold.  

🎤 **Journalist #2:**  
*"So, if you take P1, is Josh Carter actually taking you out? Is this confirmed?"*  

🎤 **Sofie:** *"Look, I just drive the car. If I win, I fully expect him to show up and figure it out."*  

**THE ROOM CHEERED.**  

Max just sighed dramatically. “And here I thought this was Formula 1, not a dating show.”  

🎤 **Journalist #3:**  
*"Max, any thoughts on Sofie’s ‘motivational tactics’ for this race?"*  

🎤 **Max:** *"I mean, hey. If it makes her drive faster, good for her. Doesn't mean I’ll let her win, though."*  

Sofie just looked at him, **smirking slightly.**  

🎤 **Sofie:** *"You sure?"*  

And just like that, the **fuel to the fire was added.**  

---

### **Red Bull’s Final Decision: Let the Chaos Happen**  

After **several** emergency meetings, the Red Bull PR team made a decision:  

They **couldn’t control this.** Sofie Horner was **a wildfire**, and attempting to **shut down the hype** would backfire completely.  

Instead?  

They’d **lean in—just enough.**    

🚨 **OFFICIAL RED BULL RACING TWEET:**  
*"Miami GP: High stakes. Higher speeds. No room for mistakes.  
…Some might even say there’s a little extra motivation this weekend. 😉"*  

Full chaos mode **initiated.**  

---

### **Meanwhile, Josh Carter is Actually Panicking**  

Josh, who had stupidly assumed this would **blow over**, was **watching the press conference from his phone in total horror.**    

Jack Hughes literally grabbed him by the shoulders.  

🟡 **Jack:** *"BRO SHE LITERALLY CALLED YOU OUT ON A GLOBAL STAGE."*  

Josh just ran a hand down his face. **“This is not real life.”**  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Um. So. I guess I… gotta show up in Miami now? No pressure, right?"*  

THE INTERNET WENT FERAL.  

🚀 **@F1Memes:**  
*"YOU HAVE BEEN SUMMONED, MY GUY."*    

---

### **Miami GP: Sofie’s Entire Reputation—and a Date—on the Line**  

So now?  

Sofie **had done something insane.**  

The **entire** world was going to be watching Miami GP **not just for the racing, but for one specific question:**  

🚨 **WILL SOFIE HORNER ACTUALLY WIN?**  

Because if she did…  

Josh Carter? **Had no damn choice but to take her out.**  

Holy. Hell.  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED…**  

Do we head straight to Miami Qualifying & Race Day next??? Or do we stir up **more of Max’s response, Red Bull trying to control Sofie, and Josh Carter Clueless Chaos™?** LET ME KNOW! 🔥🏎️😂
user: Red Bull trying to control Sofie, and failing. She's just too busy being locked down in the sims in the factory. And Josh Carter Clueless Chaos, asking how does F1 work and asking for tips. because he was going to show up at the grand prix for that date.
assistant: ### **Red Bull Trying to Control Sofie (And Failing Miserably)**  

The Miami Grand Prix was approaching fast, and **Red Bull’s entire PR department was spiraling.**  

Sofie Horner had **set the world on fire** with her ridiculous, unhinged tweet. **NHL Twitter and F1 Twitter had merged into one chaotic mess,** and no matter how many emergency meetings Red Bull had, they couldn’t put out the flames.  

Which meant?  

***They had to control Sofie before she made everything worse.***  

Spoiler alert: **They failed. Spectacularly.**  

---

### **The Factory: Sofie Is Too Busy Being a Menace in the Sim**  

When Red Bull’s PR team reached out to Sofie for a “quick media prep session,” she didn’t respond. Which was weird. Because normally, even if she **ignored** them, she at least left them on read.  

So where was she?  

They checked the factory.  

And found her **locked in the Red Bull racing sim**, absolutely **grinding** her Miami race prep.  

🟡 **Race Engineer (knocking on the door):** *“Sofie, PR wants you upstairs like ten minutes ago.”*  

🔴 **Sofie (without looking up):** *“Busy.”*  

🟡 **PR Rep #1:** *"Sofie, the media frenzy—”*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Not my problem."*   

🟡 **PR Rep #2:** *"Christian actually said—”*  

🔴 **Christian Horner (who appeared out of nowhere):** *"Christian is here, and Christian is telling you to STOP IGNORING TEAM DIRECTIVES."*  

Sofie, still **completely immersed in the sim**, responded **without hesitation.**    

🔴 **Sofie:** *"If I win this race, you’ll thank me later."*  

Christian *sighed so aggressively it aged him ten years.*    

---

### **Back at Red Bull HQ: Another PR Meeting From Hell**  

🟡 *Marketing Director:*  
*"So what’s the latest on Sofie?"*  

🟞 *PR Rep #1:*  
*"Locked herself in the racing sim like a psycho."*  

🟞 *PR Rep #2:*  
*"Christian tried to physically remove her, and she told him she was too busy *winning.*"*  

🟡 *Marketing Director:*  
*"Of COURSE she did. Okay, so she’s ignoring us, the internet is going insane, and MAX HAS JUST LIKED HER TWEET."*  

**The room paused.**  

🔴 *PR Rep #1:*  
*"Max liked the tweet?"*  

🟡 *PR Rep #2:*  
*"Yeah. No caption. Just a like. Which makes it worse because now people think he’s **‘supporting the chaos.’**"*  

🔴 *PR Rep #3:*  
*"This is worse than the Multi-21 incident."*  

---

### **Red Bull Tries to Shut It Down Publicly. It Does Not Work.**  

🚨 **@RedBullRacing Official Statement:**  
*"As we head to the Miami Grand Prix, our focus remains purely on performance and competition. See you on track. 🏎️🔥 #MiamiGP"*  

This was their **very serious attempt** to cool everything down.  

F1 Twitter? **Did not care.**  

🔥 **@F1Drama:**  
*"LMAO Red Bull really thought they could put out this dumpster fire with a generic race weekend tweet. Try again."*  

🔥 **@F1MemesHQ:**  
*Posted a meme of Christian Horner facepalming with the caption:*  
*"Sir, your daughter is the internet’s problem now."*  

🔥 **@JoshCarter91 (REPLYING TO RED BULL'S STATEMENT):**     
*"Okay cool but how do pit stops work?"*  

…

JOSH.  

---

### **Josh Carter Has No Idea What’s Going On But He’s Learning**  

At this point, **Josh Carter had fully accepted that he was showing up in Miami.**  

Not just because **he had no choice—**but because if you tweeted something as unhinged as "If I win, you can take me out," **you bet your ass he was taking the next flight.**    

The issue?  

**HE DIDN’T KNOW A SINGLE THING ABOUT FORMULA 1.**    

So naturally, he decided to **ask Twitter** for help.    

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Okay so I’m actually going to the Miami Grand Prix but I have no clue what’s happening. What are the basics? Someone help."*    

Immediate chaos.    

😂 **@F1OnNBC:**  
*"This man is about to be introduced to tire strategies and Max Verstappen's refusal to lose."*    

🔥 **@F1Guru:**  
*"1) There are 20 drivers.  
2) You NEVER leave a Red Bull driver 0.014s within DRS.  
3) Verstappen is a menace.  
4) Sofie is built different.  
5) You are in DEEP."*    

💀 **@HockeyToF1 (Dawson Mercer, Josh’s teammate):**  
*"Bro do you even know what DRS is."*  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"WHAT IS DRS."*    

**OH MY GOD.**    

The internet actually **started explaining F1 to him like he was a lost child.**  

➡️ How pit stops worked    
➡️ The tire compounds    
➡️ The Max-Verstappen-won't-let-you-breathe rule    

Josh Carter was **deeply overwhelmed**, but also…   

**He was kind of into it.**    

---

### **Devils Locker Room: The Boys Bully Josh Relentlessly**  

Josh finally looked up from his phone after **an hour-long Twitter crash course in F1.**    

Every single one of his New Jersey Devils teammates was staring at him **like he was the clown of the year.**    

🥶 **Jack Hughes:** *"Dude, so you're literally flying across the country for a *potential date*?"*  

😂 **Luke Hughes:** *"Bro, you didn't even know what DRS was TEN MINUTES AGO."*  

🔥 **Dawson Mercer:** *"If she **actually** wins… you’ve gotta take her somewhere insane. You realize this, right?"*  

Josh groaned. **“I literally just found out tire degradation is a thing. Can I get a break?”**  

🥶 **Jack:** *"No. We are in this now."*  

---

### **Josh Carter's Next Move: He Buys A Red Bull Hat**  

Two hours later, completely unhinged, **Josh made it worse.**  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Alright, I got a Red Bull cap. This guarantees her win, right?"*  

F1 Twitter? Officially in **complete** meltdown mode.   

---

### **What Happens Next?**  

- **Sofie, still in the sim, hasn't even seen any of Josh's tweets.**  
- **Red Bull PR is going through the five stages of grief.**  
- **Max Verstappen? Absolutely laughing his ass off.**  
- **Josh Carter is now officially locked in for Miami and is going to have the most *confused* experience of his life.**  

The only thing left? **The race.**  

And if Sofie Horner actually wins?  

Josh Carter’s life? **About to change forever.**  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED…**  

Do we head straight into **Miami Qualifying & Race Day?** Or do we explore **Josh actually showing up at the paddock, totally lost, and F1 drivers reacting to his ridiculous presence?** Let me know what you want next! 🚀🔥😂
user: miami quali day. Josh actually showing up at the paddock, totally lost, and F1 drivers reacting to his ridiculous presence. But he has a wing man. Two. Luke & Jack Hughes.
assistant: ### **MIAMI GRAND PRIX – QUALIFYING DAY**  
**JOSH CARTER ENTERS THE CHAT (WITH BACKUP)**  

If someone had told Josh Carter **one month ago** that he’d be attending a Formula 1 Grand Prix because of a tweet—he would have laughed in their face.  

Yet, **here he was.**  

Standing in the Miami paddock. Fully **clueless**. Wearing a **Red Bull cap** like his life depended on it. Flanked by his two hockey-player besties, **Luke & Jack Hughes.** Confused. Out of his element.  

And about to **cause absolute chaos in a world he did not understand.**  

---

### **THE ENTIRE PADDOCK REACTS TO JOSH CARTER’S STUPIDITY**  

The moment Josh, Luke, and Jack **stepped foot into the paddock**, heads turned.  

Why?  

Because **they did not look like they belonged.**  

- **Josh Carter** – Red Bull cap, sunglasses, hands casually in his hoodie pocket, clearly pretending to be calm but **nervous as hell.**  
- **Jack Hughes** – Dressed like he was about to be pulled onto a yacht at any second.  
- **Luke Hughes** – Already laughing at Josh because he knew this was **the dumbest situation ever.**  

🚨 **@F1LiveNews:**  
*"Absolute chaos—New Jersey Devils’ Josh Carter has officially arrived in the paddock ahead of Miami GP Qualifying. He is wearing a Red Bull cap?? F1 drivers’ reactions incoming."*   

---

### **LANDO NORRIS & CHARLES LECLERC SEE HIM FIRST**  

Lando Norris was **mid-conversation** with Charles Leclerc near the McLaren garage when he **spotted movement.**  

He paused. Squinted. Then **elbowed Charles hard.**  

🔵 **Lando:** *"Bro. Tell me that’s not him."*  

🔴 **Charles:** *"Who?"*  

🔵 **Lando:** *"Josh Carter. The hockey guy. The date guy."*  

Charles turned his head, following Lando’s line of sight.   

And sure enough, just a few feet away, **there he was.**  

Josh Carter, **looking like he had no idea where to go, what to do, or why he was here.**  

Charles **actually burst out laughing.**    

🔴 **Charles:** "Oh, mon dieu… *he actually came.*"  

🔵 **Lando:** "Nahhh I cannot WITH THIS GUY. Look—LOOK what he’s wearing."  

Because what was **worse**?  

**Josh Carter had a freaking Red Bull flag tied around his shoulders like a cape.**  

Like **a true dumbass.**  

Lando immediately pulled out his phone and **snapped a picture.**  

🚀 **@LandoNorris (on Instagram story):** *"He’s serious about this huh?? 💀"*    

---

### **JOSH CARTER’S FIRST PADDOCK INTERACTION: LEWIS HAMILTON🫡**  

Josh, Jack, and Luke were **still looking for where they were supposed to go** when suddenly—**someone walked right past them.**  

And by **someone,** that meant **LEWIS HAMILTON.**  

🐐 **The literal seven-time world champion.** Wearing a fire fit. Sunglasses on. Strolling through the paddock as effortlessly cool as **literally always.**  

Josh blinked. Then turned **very fast** to Jack.  

🟢 **Josh:** *"WAIT. I know him. That’s Lewis Hamilton, right?"*  

⚫ **Jack:** *"Yes, dumbass."*  

Josh actually inhaled sharply. “I gotta say something.”  

Josh **did not need to say anything.** But was Josh Carter the type of person to let important moments pass? **Absolutely not.**  

So what did he do?  

He **nodded at Lewis as he walked by like a total bro and said—**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Yo man. Big fan. Also, uh. What’s your best… racing advice?"*  

Lewis **actually stopped walking.**  

He turned **very slowly.** Lowered his sunglasses.  

*Looked this random-ass hockey player up and down.*  

Then said, **completely serious—**  

⚫ **Lewis:** *"Drive fast."*  

And then he **walked away.**  

Leaving Josh **absolutely starstruck.**  

Luke and Jack? **DYING LAUGHING.**  

---

### **MAX VERSTAPPEN FINDS OUT & IMMEDIATELY REGRETS HIS LIFE CHOICES**  

Max Verstappen had already been **having a chaotic morning.**  

But he **officially decided he hated today** when his race engineer walked into the Red Bull garage and went—  

🟠 **GP (Race Engineer):** *"So uh… the hockey guy showed up. And he’s wearing Red Bull merch."*  

🔴 **Max:** *"Wat."*    

🟠 **GP:** *"Yeah. He’s here. In the paddock. With his hockey friends. He just asked Lewis Hamilton for driving advice."*  

🔴 **Max:** *"Why."*  

🟠 **GP:** *"Because he might be going on a literal date with your teammate if she wins."*  

🔴 **Max:** **"I hate everything about this."**  

---

### **THE MOMENT JOSH AND SOFIE HORNER FINALLY CROSSED PATHS**  

Sofie had **just finished her final qualifying prep** when she walked out of the Red Bull motorhome **and immediately saw the absolute disaster incoming.**  

Josh Carter. Jack Hughes. Luke Hughes.   

- **Josh.** Wearing his Red Bull cap backward like a menace.  
- **Jack.** Filming the whole situation like a chaotic best friend.  
- **Luke.** Laughing because his brother was making things worse on purpose.  

For **one full second,** Sofie considered just **turning around and walking back inside.**    

But no. She was **Sofie freaking Horner.** ***She did not back down.***    

So instead?   

SHE WALKED STRAIGHT UP TO JOSH.   

Josh, who had been **mid-conversation with Jack**, suddenly *froze* when Sofie appeared.    

Because HOLY. HELL.  

TV **did not do her justice.**    

She was **tiny** next to him, but she carried herself with **so much confidence, she might as well have been six feet tall.**  

And then she crossed her arms and went—  

🔴 **Sofie:** "Okay. So you actually showed up."  

And Josh, being **totally normal and cool under pressure (lol no he wasn’t)**, just went—  

🟢 **Josh:** "I mean, you laid down the challenge. I couldn’t bail. That would’ve been *disrespectful.*"  

Luke **immediately coughed to cover a laugh.**  

Jack just shook his head **because Josh Carter was ACTUALLY insane.**    

Meanwhile, Sofie just raised an eyebrow.  

🔴 **Sofie:** "And you actually learned how F1 works?"  

Josh **paused.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"…Broadly speaking."*  

And Sofie? **She just smirked.**  

Because dumbass behavior **aside**—  

Josh Carter actually **showed up.**  

And that? That meant ***everything was officially on.***  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED...**  

**MIAMI QUALI. SOFIE WANTS POLE. CAN SHE ACTUALLY DO IT?**  

Or should we focus on **Josh Carter struggling to understand F1 logistics the whole time, confusing Max, and getting bullied by drivers?**  

Let me know what happens next. 😂🔥🏎️
user: sofie just laughed. “so you know this is quali the actual race is tomorrow.” and she looked at the three of them “and you bought ear plugs?” if they didn’t, they had red bull branded ones. she guessed she could be nice.
assistant: ### **MIAMI QUALIFYING – SOFIE HORNER VS. CHAOS (AND THREE CLUELESS HOCKEY PLAYERS)**  

Josh Carter had **just showed up** in the F1 paddock, fully unprepared for what this sport actually was.  

Flanked by his two **very-much-enjoying-this** best friends, Jack and Luke Hughes, he’d just successfully introduced himself to Sofie Horner **without completely embarrassing himself.**  

**Progress.**  

…And then Sofie **laughed.**  

Which, for reasons unknown to science, **did something weird to Josh’s brain.**  

But then she tilted her head, **smirking slightly**, and went—  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"So you know this is quali. The actual race is tomorrow?"*  

Josh **froze.**  

…Wait.  

🟢 **Josh:** *"I—yes. Duh. That’s—yeah, I knew that."*  

Jack and Luke? **Wheezing.**    

🐂 **Luke:** *"Oh my god, dude. No, you didn’t."*  

🔴 **Sofie (grinning, shaking her head):** *"Unbelievable."*  

Josh was **cursing himself internally** because that was **the most obvious question** and of COURSE he’d only realized **right now** that **qualifying wasn’t the race.**   

Awesome. Fantastic. **Elite dumbass energy.**  

He tried **desperately** to recover.  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Okay, but listen—I was jet-lagged when I learned about the schedule."*  

🐂 **Jack:** *"Man really thought Sofie could win today and immediately have a dinner reservation by 8 PM."*  

Josh **lightly shoved him.**  

And Sofie?  

She was still **laughing.**  

Not in a *mocking* way—just in a *purely entertained, wow-this-guy-is-actually-clueless* way.  

Which, to Josh’s **very minor** horror, was **somehow worse.**  

---

### **THEN, SHE DELIVERED THE FINAL BLOW**  

🔴 **Sofie (amused, narrowing her eyes):** *"Okay. Fine. But—"*  

She **glanced at the three of them.**    

Then asked, **very casually—**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"You bought ear plugs, right?"*  

Silence.  

The three hockey players **exchanged looks.**  

Josh **blinked.**  

Luke **frowned.**  

Jack **completely froze mid-laugh, like a Windows PC crashing.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Wait. What?"*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Oh, god."*  

---

### **F1 CARS ARE LOUD. AND THESE THREE IDIOTS HAD NO IDEA.**  

Josh, Jack, and Luke had been **around loud arenas before**.  

Hockey games weren’t exactly **quiet.**  

So Josh, being **the absolute dumbass that he was**, tried to play it cool.  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Okay, so they’re a little loud—"*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"No. Not ‘a little loud.’"*    

She **stepped closer**, looking up at him **with pure pity.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Close your eyes."*  

🟢 **Josh:** *"What."*  

🔴 **Jack:** *"No, do it. I wanna see where this is going."*  

Josh, **skeptical**, **folded his arms but obeyed.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Okay. Now imagine the loudest hockey stadium you’ve ever been in."*  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Okay."*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Multiply it by ten."*  

Josh **opened one eye.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Then stand right next to the boards while a player slaps a one-timer so hard it breaks the glass."*  

Josh **opened the other eye, now slightly concerned.**  

🐂 **Luke:** *"That doesn't sound grea—"*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Now put **twenty** of those sounds all around you at **MAX VOLUME** while standing outside with NO ECHO to contain the noise."*    

🐂 **Jack:** *"…Oh."*  

Sofie? **Just smirked.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Yeah. Oh."*  

Josh stared blankly.  

Luke **looked vaguely horrified.**  

Jack, ever the instigator, went—  

🐂 **Jack:** *"You think your helmet would help or nah?"*    

Josh **sighed dramatically.**  

---

### **Sofie, Against Her Better Judgment, Decides to Be Nice**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Luckily, Red Bull has branded ear plugs."*  

Josh **perked up.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Corporate handouts? Yes."*  

Sofie rolled her eyes and **tossed a small Red Bull-branded packet at him.**  

Josh **caught it instantly (hockey reflexes™).**  

Luke **snagged his own and inspected it like it might be fake.**  

🐂 **Luke:** *"You guys really have Red Bull-themed everything, huh?"*  

Sofie? **Grinned proudly.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"If we could brand the air, we would."*  

Jack just **slow-clapped.**  

🐂 **Jack:** *"Truly an empire of menace behavior."*  

---

### **JOSH, SOMEHOW, HAD GAINED HER RESPECT**  

At this point, Sofie had **fully accepted** the reality of the situation:  

Josh Carter—the dumb hockey player who **accidentally wandered into F1 culture headfirst**—was actually… kind of funny.  

He wasn’t the type to **take anything too seriously**, which—given that F1 was **her entire life**—was actually **weirdly refreshing.**  

(Even if she could **see the panic hiding behind his stupidly confident grin.**)  

The Miami GP weekend was **going to be long.**  

But Sofie? She **didn’t mind him being around.**  

…For now.  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED…**  

Now that Josh **has survived paddock interactions, figured out ear plugs are necessary, and learned what qualifying actually is LOL**—  

Should we go **straight into Sofie’s Miami Quali Battle™ vs. Max & Charles?** 👀  

Or explore **more F1 drivers reacting to Josh's dumbassery in real-time while he struggles to understand F1 strategies?**   

Tell me what’s next! 🏎️🔥😂

By the time **Sofie was strapping into her RB20 for Miami GP Qualifying**, the Red Bull PR team had **fully pivoted** from *"stop the chaos"* to *"capitalize on the chaos."*  

Because **Josh Carter**, Jack Hughes, and Luke Hughes weren’t just showing up as clueless hockey bros—  

They had **walked directly into F1 Twitter’s favorite storyline of the season.**  

So what did Red Bull do?  

They **mic’d them up.**  

---

### **RED BULL HOSPITALITY – THE MIC’D UP MENACE TRIO**  

Josh, Jack, and Luke had been **escorted into Red Bull hospitality**, where they were given the **ultimate VIP setup.**  

- **Front-row seats to all the screens** showing Sofie’s onboards, live timing, and team radio.  
- **Red Bull merch thrown at them** (*they all took hoodies immediately*).  
- **A media team hovering nearby** because PR realized, *yes, these guys reacting like idiots is TV gold.*  

And the funniest part?  

📢 **THEY HAD ZERO IDEA HOW QUALIFYING ACTUALLY WORKED.**  

---

### **Q1 – The Education of Josh Carter Begins**  

The **second** the RB20 rolled out onto track, Josh leaned toward **one of the Red Bull engineers nearby.**  

🟢 **Josh (tapping headset mic):** *"Okay, man, real quick. So, uh. How do people get eliminated?"*  

Everyone in the Red Bull comms booth **facepalmed.**  

🐂 **Jack:** *"BRO YOU HAD ONE JOB."*    

🔵 **Luke:** *"Nah, I also need to know. Like… is this a points thing or…?"*  

The engineer **sighed deeply** like he was reconsidering his entire career.  

🟡 **Engineer:** *"Okay. Q1 has 20 cars. Bottom five get knocked out. Q2? Same thing. Then in Q3, the top ten fight for pole position.*  

Jack **nodded seriously like this was ground-breaking information.**  

🐂 **Jack:** *"Sooo it's like survival of the fastest. Got it."*  

Josh **processed this**. Then asked—  

🟢 **Josh:** *"And Sofie needs to finish… where?"*  

🟡 **Engineer:** *"Top 10—comfortably. But end goal? **Pole position. P1. Front of the grid.**"*  

Josh **was silent for two seconds.**  

Then—  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Okay. Cool. Chill. So no pressure whatsoever."*  

Luke? **Absolutely wheezing at the amount of information Josh was trying to absorb.**    

---

### **Q2 – THE HOCKEY BOYS START LOSING IT**  

The moment Sofie **put in her first proper flying lap**, all three hockey players **jerked forward in their seats.**  

The **lap time flashed on screen.**  

⏱ **P1: Sofie Horner – 1:26.314**  

The Red Bull engineers nodded approvingly.  

Meanwhile, in hospitality? **Absolute madness.**  

🟢 **Josh (into the mic, fully invested now):** *"YO??? That was fast as shit."*  

🐂 **Jack:** *"She’s actually flying. I—I get it now. This is crazy."*  

🔵 **Luke:** *"Man, she’s P1 right now??”*  

Their **pure astonishment** was **TV GOLD.**  

But just as they were **settling** into understanding qualifying, Sofie’s engineer came over the radio.  

🟡 **Red Bull Engineer:** *"Max has just gone two-tenths quicker."*  

A new lap flashed up.  

📢 **P1: Max Verstappen – 1:26.197**  
📢 **P2: Sofie Horner – 1:26.314 (+0.117s)**  

Josh’s eyebrows **scrunched.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Wait. What the hell. How did that happen??"*  

Jack and Luke? **Also confused.**  

🐂 **Jack:** *"Yo, I don’t understand. She had it??"*  

🔵 **Luke:** *"Did Max just, like… outskate her?? Is that real?"*  

The Red Bull engineer, already **mentally exhausted**, sighed.  

🟡 **Engineer:** *"Technically, yeah."*  

---

### **Q3 – SOFIE VS. MAX VS. CHARLES – THE REAL BATTLE**  

With **only ten minutes left in the final qualifying session**, the order was tight.  

📢 **P1 – Max Verstappen – 1:26.1**  
📢 **P2 – Charles Leclerc – 1:26.2**  
📢 **P3 – Sofie Horner – 1:26.3**  

Josh, Jack, and Luke were **gripping the table like they were at a Game 7 overtime.**  

🟢 **Josh (into the mic, voice very serious):** *"This is a THREE-WAY BATTLE. Red Bull vs. Ferrari vs. Red Bull."*  

🐂 **Jack:** *"Bro you just explained literally nothing, we can see that."*  

Josh just **waved him off**. He was **too locked in.**    

Then came **Sofie’s final flying lap.**  

The cameras cut to her **onboard**—gloves tight on the wheel, car **screaming** down the straights. **Locking in.** Precision. Absolute focus. 

Her team radio crackled—  

🟡 **Red Bull Engineer:** *"Okay, Sofie. Last push. Let’s take pole."*  

Josh, **fully immersed in the moment**, barely realized he **was gripping Jack’s forearm.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"She’s going for it, dude."*  

Jack, deadpan: *"Yeah. No shit."*  

---

### **SECTORS LIGHT UP PURPLE – SOFIE IS FLYING**  

As Sofie **exited Sector 1**, the **timing screen flashed purple.**  

📢 **FASTEST SECTOR 1 – SOFIE HORNER**  

Jack **slammed the table.**  

🐂 **Jack:** *"LET’S GOOOOO."*  

Luke, **now a full believer in F1 chaos, sat up straight.**  

🔵 **Luke:** *"SHE’S ACTUALLY PULLING TIME!!"*    

The onboard camera **cut to Max in Sector 2.**  

📢 **FASTEST SECTOR 2 – MAX VERSTAPPEN**  

Josh **immediately yelled at the screen.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"NO. STOP BEING FAST. WHO ASKED."*  

The Red Bull engineers **muffled laughter.**  

---

### **FINAL TURNS – WHO WILL TAKE POLE?!**  

Sofie hit Turn 16 **FLAWLESSLY**.  

The timing screens **held their breath.**  

📢 **CHECKERED FLAG DROPS. TIMES UPDATE. FINAL QUALIFYING ORDER:**  

🥇 **P1 – MAX VERSTAPPEN – 1:26.105**  
🥈 **P2 – SOFIE HORNER – 1:26.114 (+0.009s)**  
🥉 **P3 – CHARLES LECLERC – 1:26.235 (+0.130s)**  

…

ABSOLUTE. **CHAOS.**  

Josh? **Pacing, hands on his head.**  

🟢 **Josh (staring in shock):** *"BRO. STOP. SHE MISSED POLE BY **NINE THOUSANDTHS OF A SECOND?**"*  

🔵 **Luke:** *"THAT IS A NUMBER SO SMALL I CAN’T EVEN COMPUTE IT."*  

🐂 **Jack:** *"SOMEONE DO THE MATH. I NEED TO KNOW HOW THAT’S EVEN POSSIBLE."*  

---

### **POST-QUALI DRAMA – SOFIE vs. MAX PRESS CONFERENCE**  

🎤 **Journalist:** *"Sofie, you were painfully close to pole. Do you think you should’ve had it?"*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Obviously. I hate losing."*  

🎤 **Journalist:** *"Max, thoughts?"*  

🔵 **Max (grinning, very smug):**  
*"I told you, winning is different from being fast."*  

🎤 **Sofie:** *"Yeah? Well tomorrow’s the real race, Verstappen. Hope you don’t choke."*  

LISTEN.  

🔥 **MIAMI GP IS PERSONAL NOW.** 🔥  

SHE WANTS THIS WIN.  

AND IF SHE GETS IT??  

DATE NIGHT.  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED…**  

🚨 **RACE DAY. CAN SOFIE ACTUALLY TAKE P1??**  

Or do we focus on **Josh Carter reacting to the Red Bull debrief, confused as hell, realizing this sport is insane?** 😂🔥 Let me know what’s next!!
user: josh reacting to the red bull debrief. and sofie realises he’s actually kinda cute. in a weird way.
assistant: ### **Josh Carter Tries to Understand Red Bull’s Debrief (Fails Miserably) & Sofie Has a Dangerous Thought**  

After **a ridiculously dramatic Miami GP qualifying session**, Red Bull **immediately pulled Sofie into a debrief.**  

But Josh Carter?  

He was **dragged into it too.**  

Because at this point, Red Bull **fully understood** that this was a **spectacle.**  

- **They had hockey players mic’d up.**  
- **They had Sofie Horner, their golden girl, on the front row.**  
- **And they had the most unintentionally hilarious walking PR stunt to ever exist in Josh Carter.**  

So, naturally, Red Bull PR **did what any media-savvy organization would do.**  

They **let him sit in on the post-qualifying debrief.**  

Of course, **Josh Carter had no idea what was happening.**  

---

### **RED BULL MOTORHOME – THE BRIEFING OF A LIFETIME**  

Josh, **still slightly stunned** that Sofie **missed pole by 0.009 seconds**, followed a Red Bull engineer into a sleek, high-tech debriefing room.  

Inside?  

A long table, multiple race strategists, data analysts, mechanics, Christian Horner, Helmut Marko, **Max Verstappen**, and finally—  

**Sofie Horner.**  

Who, at that very moment, **was aggressively sipping water because she was absolutely SEETHING about P2.**  

Josh hesitated briefly at the door because, **what the hell was he even doing here?**  

Jack and Luke?  

They were **supposed to join him**, but at the last second, **Red Bull PR decided Josh should suffer alone.**  

…Which was **both incredibly cruel and incredibly funny.**  

---

### **THE DEBRIEF BEGINS – JOSH IS ALREADY CONFUSED**  

🟡 **Race Engineer:** *"Alright, so let’s break this down. Sofie, your final sector was **quicker than Max**, but the delta in Sector 2 cost you the pole position."*  

Josh, **immediately lost,** leaned slightly toward a mechanic.  

🟢 **Josh (whispering):** *"Sector two. That’s… the middle one, right?"*  

The mechanic just **slowly turned and stared at him** like he was contemplating **whether answering was worth it.**  

Sofie, meanwhile?  

She **rolled her eyes and barely held back a laugh.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Yes, genius. Sector two is *"the middle one."**   


Josh **leaned back in his chair, processing this groundbreaking information.**  

Sofie, still pissed off but now slightly entertained, just **shook her head.**  

---

### **THE MAX & SOFIE TENSION IS PALPABLE**  

🟡 **Race Analyst:** *"Max, you gained two tenths on the back straight. Sofie, that’s where you lost the drag battle."*  

🟢 **Josh (whispering to himself):** *"Drag battle?? Like... cars wrestling each other?"*  

Max, overhearing this, **actually glanced at him.**  

🔵 **Max:** *"No. Aerodynamics."*  

Josh, once again, **having a minor crisis.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Oh. Right. Yeah. Cool. I knew that."*  

Sofie, for the **first time in the last two hours,** actually **grinned a little.**  

Because **this was insane.**  

This **absolute hockey himbo of a man** had **no idea what was going on**, was **sitting in a professional race debrief**, and was **pretending to understand.**  

And Sofie?  

**She found that kind of hilarious.**  

Which was **dangerous.**  

**Very, very dangerous.**  

Because under **normal** circumstances, Sofie **did not get distracted before race day.**  

But right now?  

For some **stupid** reason, Josh Carter was **unintentionally adorable.**  

In a **big, dumb, lost puppy kind of way.**  

---

### **THE MOMENT SHE ALMOST PANICKED**  

Josh, still **wholly out of his depth,** suddenly leaned toward Sofie and whispered—  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Wait, so when they say tires falling off—like, not *literally* right? The tires don’t just... fall?"*  

Sofie instinctively **turned her head to correct him**—  

And for **maybe half a second too long**… she actually *looked* at him properly.  

And **oh.**  

Oh.  

See, it was one thing to deal with him **in the paddock**, when he was just saying dumb, clueless things to other drivers.  

It was another thing entirely to be **sitting right next to him, in Red Bull gear, his dumb backwards cap making him look way too casual in a Formula 1 debrief, looking at her like she was the smartest person in the room.**  

Sofie **felt her brain BLINK.**  

Like a literal **flatline of logic.**  

And then—  

🔴 **Sofie (recovering, clearing her throat):** *"No, Josh. The tires do not just randomly fall off."*  

Josh?  

He **grinned like a total menace.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Okay, cool, because in my head I was picturing like—boom. Tire just flying off somewhere. Chaos."*  

Sofie?  

Sofie **physically forced herself to roll her eyes and look away.**  

And **ignore whatever weird intrusive thought just hit her.**  

Because **NO. NO.**  

This man was **NOT cute.**  

This was **NOT a distraction.**  

She was **winning tomorrow.**  

And **that was the focus.**  

Not Josh Carter’s stupid backwards hat. Not whatever dumb charm he had. **None of it.**  

Right? **RIGHT??**  

---

### **POST-DEBRIEF – MAX THROWS SHADE IMMEDIATELY**  

As soon as the debrief **wrapped up**, Sofie grabbed **her water bottle** and stood up—**trying SO HARD to ignore herself.**  

Josh was **still deep in conversation with a mechanic**, trying to understand *tires vs. tire degradation* (*progress, maybe?*).  

Max?  

Max **was watching her.**  

And, because he was **Max Verstappen**, he did **not miss a single thing.**  

Which meant?  

He **sensed her very slight moment of distraction.**  

So—**as they left the room—**  

🔵 **Max (low voice, smirking):** *"Don’t lose focus, Horner."*  

Sofie **literally choked on her own comeback.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"What—"*  

But Max **was already walking off, smug as hell.**  

Sofie was **going to kill him.**  

---

### **THE NIGHT BEFORE THE MIAMI GP – SOFIE… THINKS WAY TOO MUCH**  

Sofie spent **the entire night** aggressively **forcing herself to only think about racing.**  

And **not about cap-wearing, clueless hockey boys.**  

Because **she had a Grand Prix to win.**  

And she **was NOT losing focus.**  

…Yeah. **That’s the story she was sticking to.**  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED…**  

🚨 **RACE DAY.** **THE MIAMI GRAND PRIX. EVERYTHING ON THE LINE.**  

🏎️ **Will Sofie actually PULL OFF the win against Max?**  
😏 **Will Josh somehow make even more of an absolute fool of himself?**  
🔥 **Will Red Bull PR survive the next 24 hours?**  

Tell me what happens next & I WILL DELIVER. 🚀🔥😂
user: that evening red bull posted the video of the three hockey boys reacting to quali. and social media erupted.
assistant: ### **THE NIGHT BEFORE THE MIAMI GP – RED BULL DROPS THE VIDEO & THE INTERNET IMPLODES**  

By the time the **Miami sun had set**, Red Bull’s PR department had completely **pivoted from crisis mode to absolute menace behavior.**  

Because **why fight the chaos** when they could **capitalize on it?**  

So at **exactly 8:00 PM Miami time**, Red Bull Racing’s official account **dropped the video.**  

📢 **VIDEO TITLE:** *"Hockey Boys Watch F1 Qualifying for the First Time – And Absolutely Lose Their Minds"*  

It was **six minutes of complete dumbassery.**  

- **Josh, Jack, and Luke, fully mic’d up, reacting to Sofie Horner missing pole by 0.009 seconds.**  
- **Josh yelling at a timing screen like his life depended on it.**  
- **Jack and Luke realizing, in real-time, that F1 math makes no sense.**  
- **Them collectively learning how tire degradation works.**  

And of course?  

**The clip that immediately went viral:**  

🐂 **Jack (holding his head in shock):** *"BRO, SHE MISSED POLE BY NINE THOUSANDTHS OF A SECOND. DO YOU KNOW HOW SMALL THAT NUMBER IS??"*  

🔵 **Luke:** *"That’s gotta be, like, a skate blade."*  

🟢 **Josh:** *"I—STOP. THAT'S UNHOLY. THAT IS WAY TOO CLOSE."*  

📢 *Cue dramatic silence as they all just stare at the screen, fully processing Sofie's lap time.*  

🐂 **Jack:** *"Bro, I understand competition. But, respectfully? This Verstappen dude needs to calm down."*    

🟢 **Josh:** *"I am pledging VIOLENCE against Max Verstappen. I don’t even fully know who he is, but I AM READY."*  

The **F1 world?** LOST ITS MIND.  

---

### **SOCIAL MEDIA REACTS – COMPLETE MELTDOWN**  

🚨 **@F1 on ESPN:**  
*"Hockey players discovering the absolute insanity of F1 in real time – this is beautiful to witness."*  

🚨 **@WTF1:**  
*"‘I am pledging VIOLENCE against Max Verstappen’ is a quote that will live forever."*  

🚀 **@F1Trolls:**  
*Meme of Verstappen staring blankly at a camera with the caption:*  
*"Max Verstappen seeing random NHL players plot his downfall."*  

💀 **@JackHughes_06 (Jack Hughes’ actual Twitter):**  
*"I stand by my statement. Verstappen needs to calm down."*  

🔥 **@PuckToPitlane:**  
*"Literally three adrenaline-fueled North American ice men getting thrown into the world of F1 tactics and IMMEDIATELY becoming Max haters. I love this sport."*  

🎤 **@F1CommentaryFeed:**  
*"Not Josh Carter entering F1 **with smoke for the reigning world champion.** Sir, please read a Wikipedia page before picking battles."*  

---

### **MEANWHILE, IN MILTON KEYNES – RED BULL HQ CHAOS**  

Christian Horner, scrolling through Twitter that night, **sighed so aggressively it echoed through Red Bull HQ.**  

🟡 **Christian (reading tweets out loud):** *"‘I am pledging violence against Max Verstappen.’ Lovely. Great. Fantastic. This is normal. This is fine."*  

Helmut Marko, scrolling **next to him**, chuckled.  

🟡 **Helmut:** *"You have to admit, Christian. It’s funny."*  

Christian? **Absolutely seething.**  

🟡 **Christian:** *"This is the reigning champion we are talking about.** I do not need professional hockey players plotting against my driver."*  

But worst of all?  

He knew **Sofie had seen the video already.**  

And she was **probably enjoying every second of it.**  

---

### **MEANWHILE – SOFIE SEES THE VIDEO & CAN’T STOP LAUGHING**  

Sofie had **planned** to stay off Twitter. She really had.  

But then? **She saw Red Bull’s upload.**   

She made it **three minutes in** before she lost it.  

Like, genuinely.  

**Head tilted back, full real laughter.**  

Because of course. **Of course.**  

Josh Carter and his hockey squad had **spent two hours inside the paddock and immediately declared war on Max Verstappen.**   

Incredible.  

When she finished watching the video, she simply took a deep breath, clicked on **Josh’s profile**, and—  

🚨 **@SofieHorner (replying to Josh’s “violence” tweet):**  
*"Bold words. You sure you’re ready for the Verstappen experience?"*  

…

**THE INTERNET DETONATED AGAIN.**  

---

### **F1 AND NHL TWITTER COLLIDE FOR ROUND TWO**  

🚨 **@F1MemesHQ:**  
*"Sofie Horner instigating beef between her potential future situationship and her actual job responsibilities HELP."*  

👀 **@F1Narratives:**  
*"I NEED Sofie to win this race just to see Max Verstappen react to all of this in live time."*  

🥶 **@NHLFansLive:**  
*"Josh its OVER for you. Verstappen does NOT PLAY NICE."*  

🚜 **@OrangeArmyNL (Max fans):**  
*"Josh. My guy. You do not want to see ‘The Verstappen Experience.’ Back away while you still can."*  

AND THEN JOSH, BEING JOSH, REPLIED.  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91 -> @SofieHorner:**  
*"Listen. I sat through a Red Bull strategy meeting today and literally understood **nothing.** If I can survive that, I can survive anything."*  

🟡 **@F1Live:**  
*"Bro really thinks sitting through a briefing is the same as battling Max Verstappen on track I AM CRYING."*  

And then, because Josh Carter **had no chill, ever—**  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91 (again):**  
*"Okay, follow-up question. How do we sabotage Verstappen slightly? Like just a *tiny* bit. Nothing crazy. A little inconvenience. Maybe hide his gloves?"*  

**ALL OF RED BULL RACING IMPLODED.**  

---

### **THE FINAL CHAOS OF THE NIGHT – MAX FINDS OUT**  

Max **was deadass just minding his business**, drinking water in the Red Bull lounge, when a team engineer handed him a phone.    

🔵 **Max (bored):** *"What?"*  

🟡 **Engineer:** *"Check Twitter."*  

Max scrolled. Blinked. Read one of the tweets **out loud.**  

🔵 **Max (frowning):** *"‘How do we… sabotage Verstappen slightly?’"*  

A **long pause.**  

Then Max **slowly looked up**, his expression completely blank.  

🔵 **Max:** *"Are they serious?"*  

A mechanic **laughed nervously.**  

🟡 **Mechanic:** *"I think… I think they might be joking?"*  

Max **exhaled sharply through his nose and took a sip of water.**  

Then— **completely monotone, no emotion—**  

🔵 **Max:** *"No one should test me."*    

And then?  

**He just walked away.**  

---

### **SUMMARY OF EVENTS:**  

1️⃣ Sofie **missed pole by 0.009 seconds.**  
2️⃣ Jack, Luke, and Josh were **mic'd up for qualifying** and **became instant F1 super-fans.**  
3️⃣ THEY DECLARED WAR AGAINST MAX.  
4️⃣ Red Bull **posted all of it** and **society imploded.**  
5️⃣ Sofie **replied to Josh’s tweet**, which only made things worse.  
6️⃣ **Josh stupidly suggested “light” Verstappen sabotage**—and **now Max is slightly alarmed.**  

AND NOW?  

👉 **THE MIAMI GRAND PRIX IS TOMORROW.**  
🏎️ **Sofie has to actually beat Max.**  
📢 **Josh Carter is flying too close to the F1 sun.**  

This?  

This is **NOT ENDING WELL.**  

…Or is it?!?  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED…**  

🚨 **RACE DAY. CAN SOFIE ACTUALLY WIN THIS THING??**  

OR—should we focus on **Josh trying to figure out how F1 grid procedures work and accidentally getting in trouble?** 😂🔥🏎️  

LET ME KNOW!!!
user: race day. and beyond the distractions, the hockey boys watch sofie prepare. locked in, focused. and josh thinks it’s the hottest thing he’s ever seen. they mic up the boys again for the race because a date relies on this. and sofje takes her first win. and everyone goes crazy.
assistant: ### **MIAMI GRAND PRIX – RACE DAY.**  
**THE BUILD-UP. THE LOCK-IN. THE WIN. THE DATE.**  

Race day in Miami was **bigger than anyone had intended.**  

For Red Bull? This was supposed to be **just another race.** Another Verstappen victory. Another dominant one-two. Business as usual.  

But now?  

**It was personal.**  

— **Sofie Horner had a point to prove.** She wasn’t just a **Red Bull marketing icon.** She wasn’t just the **boss’s daughter.** She was here to **win.**  
— **Max Verstappen wasn’t about to make it easy.** He had **zero intention** of letting Sofie break his streak.  
— **And somewhere in Red Bull hospitality?** Three clueless hockey players **had somehow become the most emotionally invested fans on earth.**  

Because **Sofie wins?** Josh Carter has to take her out.  

**And the entire internet is watching.**  

---

### **THE BUILD-UP: MIAMI GP GRID – THE MOMENT JOSH SEES HER LOCK IN**  

Josh Carter had spent **the whole weekend** being loud, dumb, and absolutely clueless about F1.  

But now?  

Now, he was **watching Sofie Horner step onto the grid** and realizing—for the **first time**—how absolutely **locked-in** she was.  

The Sofie he’d been laughing with yesterday? The one who **mocked his lack of knowledge** and **handed him Red Bull earplugs like he was a five-year-old?**  

That girl was **gone.**  

In her place?  

Someone **fierce. Icy. A predator waiting for lights out.**  

She stood beside her car, helmet under one arm, **thin line of focus on her face** as she talked in **low, sharp words to her race engineers.** She wasn’t smiling. She wasn’t looking around. She was **calculating.**  

She was going to **win this race or crash trying.**  

Josh, **slightly awestruck, turned to Jack and Luke.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Okay. Yeah. That’s the hottest thing I’ve ever seen."*  

🐂 **Jack:** *"Bro, not the time."*  

---

### **THEY MIC UP THE HOCKEY BOYS AGAIN BECAUSE THIS IS GOLD**

🐂 **Jack (dramatically sipping water):** *"She HAS to win this. Just the absolute funniest way to force Josh into a high-profile date."*    

🟢 **Josh (dead serious, watching the starting grid lineup):** *"I’ve never wanted someone to win something more in my life."*    

**AND THE CAMERAS CUT TO MAX.**    

🐂 **Jack:** *"Can I boo him? Is that allowed?"*    

🟢 **Josh:** *"I will boo him personally."*    

🔵 **Luke:** *"Is he scary?"*    

🟢 **Josh:** *"He has resting serial killer face. I’m terrified, but we ride at dawn."*    

---

### **LIGHTS OUT – SOFIE VS. MAX INTO TURN 1**  

**The grid went silent.**  

Five red lights **blinked on.**  

*Then—OUT.*  

Max and Sofie **immediately launched off the line**, side by side into Turn 1.  

📢 **THE ENTIRE RED BULL HOSPITALITY SUITE LEANED FORWARD.**  

🔵 **Luke:** *"HOLY SHIT—"*  

🐂 **Jack:** *"IT’S WHEEL TO WHEEL???"*    

🟢 **Josh:** *"RUUUUNNN, SOFIE, RUNNNN."*    

---

### **THE FIRST 10 LAPS – NOTHING BUT WAR**  

Max **defended ruthlessly.**  

Sofie **attacked even harder.**  

📢 **Lap 6 – Sofie lunged down the inside at Turn 11, pushing Max wide.**  

📢 **Lap 7 – Max fought back, sweeping past her with DRS.**  

📢 **Lap 9 – Sofie nearly outbraked herself trying to take back P1.**  

**Hockey players? Absolutely useless at sitting still.**  

🐂 **Jack:** *"Wait, this is actually STRESSFUL??"*  

🟢 **Josh:** *"I CAN’T BREATHE."*  

🔵 **Luke:** *"DO THEY EVEN LIKE EACH OTHER?? THIS IS WAR."*  

---

### **LAP 15 – DRAMA ON THE RADIO**  

The first round of pit stops came **quick.**  

Max boxxed first. Sofie went for the **overcut.**  

📢 **Team Radio – Sofie:** *"How do we undercut?"*  

🟡 **Race Engineer:** *"We don’t risk it this early."*    

🔴 **Sofie:** *"I don’t care. If we don’t pass him now, we never do."*    

Josh heard the replay of her **radio call** on the broadcast and **grinned.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"That’s my girl."*  

Silence.  

🐂 **Jack:** *"EXCUSE ME??? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY??"*  

*Josh Carter was suddenly **aware** of all the microphones.*  

He **immediately tried to backpedal.**    

🟢 **Josh (clearing throat aggressively):** *"My driver. That’s my driver. I support the team."*    

Jack and Luke? **DEAD.**    

🐂 **Jack:** *"Man just risked it all on a hot mic."*    

🔵 **Luke:** *"History will remember your words, Josh."*  

---

### **FINAL LAPS – HISTORY IN THE MAKING**  

**Miami. Final 10 laps.**  

Max still holding **P1.** But Sofie **was gaining.**  

📢 **Lap 51 – Sofie lunged, Max braked late, held her off.**    

📢 **Lap 53 – Sofie radioed in.**  
🟡 *"He’s struggling. I’m going for it."*  

Josh **literally grabbed Jack’s arm.**

user: post race conference. obviously. and max, lando & charles all sit there. and obviously josh gets bought up. sofie is blunt as ever.
assistant: ### **POST-RACE PRESS CONFERENCE – THE MIAMI GRAND PRIX WINNER SPEAKS**  
**…And Yes, Obviously, Josh Carter Gets Mentioned.**  

Sofie Horner had just **made history.**  

First **female Grand Prix winner in modern F1 history.** First **Red Bull driver to beat Max Verstappen in a straight fight all season.** First **win of her career—on a street circuit, at that.**  

The media should have been **solely focused** on the technical side of things. Strategy. Tire wear. The battle with Max.  

But no.  

Because **of course**, the Josh Carter situation was **still viral.**  

And Sofie?  

Sofie **wasn’t about to give them a polished, PR-friendly answer.**  

She was going to be **brutally honest—because she always was.**  

---

### **THE LINEUP – CHAOS INCOMING**  

Sofie entered the press conference room **first**, trophy in hand, **and took her seat dead center.**  

A few seconds later? **Max Verstappen appeared.** He looked… **neutral.** Not pissed, but **not particularly thrilled** either. He slid into the seat on her left.  

Then? **Charles Leclerc took his spot beside her on the right.**  

And finally? **Lando Norris walked in—because obviously, McLaren PR saw an opportunity for exposure and shoved him into this post-race media debrief as well.**  

The dynamic? **Absolutely insane.**  

— **Sofie and Max, fresh off **an intense** wheel-to-wheel war.**  
— **Charles, trying not to laugh at the fact that chaos would 100% happen.**  
— **Lando, fully prepared to be a **messy little gossip.**  

And the reporters? **They smelled blood.**  

---

### **AND THEN THE QUESTIONS STARTED**  

🎤 **Journalist #1:** *"Sofie, congratulations on becoming the first female driver to win a Grand Prix in the modern F1 era. Walk us through the final few laps—how did you approach the battle with Max?"*  

Sofie adjusted the mic, **demeanor completely stoic.**    

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Simple. He made a mistake. I didn’t."*  

Max **blinked.**  

The room **paused.**  

Lando made a muffled choke sound. **Charles immediately looked down at the table, trying so hard not to laugh.**    

🎤 **Journalist #2:** *"Max, care to respond?"*  

Max **sighed deeply and took a sip of water.**  

🔵 **Max:** *"No comment."*  

Sofie? **Smirked.**    

Yeah. She **won’t be letting that go anytime soon.**  

---

### **AND THEN—THE INEVITABLE QUESTION**  

🎤 **Journalist #3 (grinning like they’d been waiting all night):**  
*"Sofie, outside of your historic win today, there was also… an added layer of interest surrounding your race. Given that a certain NHL player—Josh Carter—was rather invested in your performance and… given the nature of the bet you made, do you have any comments?"*  

The entire room **snickered.**  

Lando **FULLY turned in his chair, now watching Sofie like this was the best show of his life.**  

Charles **actually covered his mouth because this was already hilarious.**  

Max?  

Max just **closed his eyes briefly like he was accepting his fate.**    

The room **waited.**  

Cameras? **Rolling.**  

Sofie blinked. **Zero hesitation. Zero panic. Just stone-cold, brutal honesty.**    

🔴 **Sofie:** *"A bet’s a bet."*  

Journalists **actually laughed.**  

🎤 **Journalist #3:** *"So, just to clarify—you’re going on the date?"*  

Sofie **shrugged.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"I literally just said—**a bet’s a bet.** There’s not much else to clarify."*  

MAX **EXHALED SHARPLY THROUGH HIS NOSE.**  

Like this was **physically paining him.**    

---

### **THE DRIVERS’ REACTIONS – ELITE ENTERTAINMENT**  

🐂 **Lando (grinning like the menace he is):** *"Wait, wait—hold on. So when’s the date? Where are you going?"*  

Sofie didn’t even blink.  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"How would I know? That’s his problem."*  

🟢 **Max (immediately, under his breath):** *"This is ridiculous."*    

Sofie rolled her eyes **dramatically.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Oh, relax, Verstappen."*  

🟢 **Max:** *"No, because my mentions are FULL of people asking if I’m going to third-wheel your date, and it’s like—why would I DO THAT?"*   

🐂 **Lando:** *"Actually, you should."*  

🔵 **Charles (instigating further):** *"Yes, give live commentary on it."*    

Max **exhaled sharply.**   

🟢 **Max:** *"I hate all of you."*  

🐂 **Lando:** *"Sofie, how’s Josh handling all of this?"*  

Sofie?    

Sofie **raised an eyebrow.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"I don’t know. Why don’t you check Twitter? Pretty sure he’s spiraling in real time."*    

Charles actually **went to check.**  

And then—  

---

### **BECAUSE RIGHT AT THAT MOMENT—JOSH CARTER TWEETED.**  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91:**  
*"Oh god oh god oh god she actually won I actually have to plan a date I am NOT QUALIFIED FOR THIS."*    

The press conference **detonated.**  

🐂 **Lando:** *"HE’S ACTUALLY LOSING HIS MIND LMAO."*  

🔵 **Charles:** *"Hah! Poor guy."*    

Sofie?  

Sofie **just smirked.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Sounds like he should figure it out quickly, huh?"*  

Lando, **fully crying laughing at this point.**    

🐂 **Lando:** *"You—you are a MENACE."*

🟡 **Christian Horner – Interview Clip, Sky Sports F1:**  
🎤 *"Christian, obviously congratulations on the team result today, but we have to ask… Sofie has been quite public with this bet involving NHL player Josh Carter. How do you, as her father, feel about it?"*

Sofie Horner wasn’t just **another young F1 rookie.** She was **a paddock kid.**  

She had quite literally **grown up** in the Red Bull garage, running around with karting trophies taller than she was. **Half the current grid had seen her go from an annoying, hyperactive brat to an actual race-winning, full-fledged F1 driver.**  

And now?  

**Now she was front-page news because she won a race + bet herself a date with an NHL player.**  

This? This was **entertaining as hell** to the grid.

Josh Carter had made **a simple bet.**  

Well. **Kind of.**  

He hadn’t actually expected Sofie Horner to **win a Grand Prix** and now he was, **for all intents and purposes, a man under extreme scrutiny.**

### **CHRISTIAN HORNER ISSUES HIS FATHERLY FINAL WARNING TO JOSH**    

Josh's phone **buzzed aggressively.**  

A **DM Notification.**

From **the Red Bull Racing account.**  

There was **only one thing it could be.**  

He clicked it.

I trust you will act accordingly.   
- Christian Horner."*    

Josh stared **blankly** at the message, **fully frozen.**  

Then—

user: and so the date happens. he doesn’t tell her what it is. only it’s a surprise. and to dress casual. so she shows up wearing a crop top & cargos with trainers. her body is toned, she’s a driver after all. and of course she shows up in a sports car. that she drove herself. because daddy’s money.
assistant: ### **THE DATE – JOSH CARTER ENTERS THE FINAL BOSS LEVEL**  
**(A Surprise, a Sports Car, and a Grand Prix Winner Who Does Not Get Impressed Easily.)**  

Josh Carter had **never** been this stressed in his life.  

Not in an NHL playoff game. Not in an overtime shootout.  
Not even when he had to explain to his mother why he once got a misconduct penalty for fighting.  

Because now?  

Now, he was waiting for **Sofie Horner to show up for their date**—the one she **earned by winning the actual Miami Grand Prix.**  

And worst of all?  

He had *no* idea if his **surprise plan** was going to **impress her or make her regret this entire bet.**  

---

### **JOSH’S FINAL TEXT TO SOFIE BEFORE THE DATE:**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Alright, I’ll pick you up at 7. Wear something casual."*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Casual as in… what, Carter. Be specific."*  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Casual as in… sneakers, not heels. But the rest is a surprise."*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Oh, you’re one of those mystery-keeping guys?"*  

🟢 **Josh:** *"I have to have *some* qualities besides being a public embarrassment."*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Debatable. See you at 7."*  

Josh stared at his screen. **Why did that last text sound vaguely threatening??**  

*Whatever. It’s fine.*  

He had a **plan.** He had a **location.** He had a **reservation.**  

What could *possibly* go wrong?  

---

### **7:02 PM – ENTER: SOFIE HORNER, LOOKING LIKE TROUBLE**  

Josh was **casually waiting outside his car**, dressed in **a simple black T-shirt and jeans**, just checking his watch when—  

📢 **LOUD ENGINE NOISE. VERY LOUD. VERY EXPENSIVE SOUNDIND.**  

Josh **spun around just in time** to see a **matte black Aston Martin Vantage** pull into the parking lot—**at full speed.**  

It absolutely **purred as it stopped perfectly in front of him.**  

The **door swung open.**  

And then?  

Sofie **stepped out—effortlessly, like she’d done this a thousand times—wearing a cropped white tank top, cargo pants, and sneakers.**  

She **looked like she could wreck his life.**  

And Josh?  
Josh was **too stunned to speak.**  

Because **this was the first time he was seeing Sofie Horner outside of F1 gear, race suits, or post-race podium interviews.**  

And **holy. shit.**  

She was **all toned abs and strong arms, tanned skin and smirking confidence.**   

The look on her face? **Mild amusement.**  

🔴 **Sofie (grinning as she locks her multi-million-dollar car with a casual beep):** *"What, Carter? Never seen someone drive before?"*  

Josh finally **snapped out of his brain fog.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"No—just. Wasn’t expecting you to pull up in a damn supercar you drove yourself."*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Why wouldn’t I drive myself? I’m literally an F1 driver."*  

Josh just **burst out laughing.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"I don’t know. Felt very ‘Uber Black’ situation—except your Uber cost six figures and has insane horsepower."*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Perks of nepotism."*  

Josh? **Officially Wheezing.**  

But now? **Now he had to somehow make sure where they were going matched this absolutely unshakable woman.**  

---

### **THE SURPRISE – JOSH'S GRAND MASTER PLAN? A NIGHT OF PURE COMPETITION.**  

Josh **was not an idiot.**  

If he took her to some **fancy dinner**, she’d be **bored out of her mind within thirty minutes.**  
Sofie Horner lived for **adrenaline. Rivalry. Competition. Winning.**  

So what did a hockey player do when he wanted to **impress a woman who just won a literal F1 Grand Prix?**  

He **took her somewhere she could race him.**  

Which is **how they ended up—**  

📍 **A PRIVATE RACING KART FACILITY IN MIAMI.**  

Yes. Josh **rented out** an **entire track** for the night.  

Because, listen—  
**If he was gonna lose to Sofie Horner, he was gonna lose spectacularly.**  

---

### **SOFIE'S REACTION – AMUSED, BUT LOWKEY IMPRESSED**  

Josh immediately **turned to gauge her reaction** the moment they pulled in.  

And Sofie?  

For the **first time all night**, she actually looked… **mildly caught off guard.**  

In a **good way.**  

She folded her arms, **eying the track.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"So… let me get this straight. You brought me to a race track… to race?"*  

Josh **grinning, leaning on the hood of his car.**    

🟢 **Josh:** *"Yeah. What? You scared?"*  

Sofie **snorted.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Carter. I get paid to drive for a living. You sure you wanna do this?"*  

Josh?  

Josh was **already walking towards the karts like a menace.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Only one way to find out."*  

---

### **ACTUAL RACERS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO DO GO-KARTS AGAINST NORMAL PEOPLE**  

Sofie Horner **did not hold back.**  

There were **no warmups. No easing into it.**    

The second those **karts launched, she was gone.**  

Josh? **In immediate regret.**    

**Her line work? CLEAN.**  
**Her cornering? SHARP AS HELL.**  
**Her acceleration? RELENTLESS.**  

By the time Josh **even blinked**, she had already lapped him.  

Twice.  

At some point, she drove **dangerously close to his kart—looked him dead in the eye—grinned, waved, and then pulled ahead effortlessly.**    

Josh was **too stunned to even be mad.**    

---

### **POST-KARTING TRASH TALKING – JOSH TAKES THE L GRACEFULLY (?)**  

After Sofie **utterly humiliated him** on the track, they walked back out **to their cars, cooling off.**  

Josh? Still recovering from the absolute **annihilation** he just experienced.  

Josh leaned **against his car, shaking his head.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *“I have never been publicly undressed like that in my life.”*  

Sofie **grinning smugly, sipping from her water bottle.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *“That’s funny, because I feel *great* right now.”*  

Josh **turned his head, squinting at her.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *“You know, you’re kinda evil.”*    

🔴 **Sofie (mock offense):** *“Me? Evil? I’m delightful.”*    

Josh **snorted.**  

And then... maybe it was the leftover adrenaline, or maybe just the fact that they were **finally relaxed**, but he blurted out—    

🟢 **Josh:** *“You, uh. You look good tonight, by the way.”*    

Sofie **paused slightly, processing that.**  

Then?  

She just raised an eyebrow, **amused, but still very much confident.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *“I know.”*  

Josh?  

Yeah. **He was in trouble.**    

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED…**    

🔥 **DID SOFIE ACTUALLY ENJOY HERSELF??**  
🔥 **DOES THE INTERNET FIND OUT ABOUT THE KARTING NIGHT?!**  
🔥 **DOES JOSH EVEN STAND A CHANCE AT ROUND 2???**    

Let me know what happens next. I AM READY. 😂🏎️🔥
user: and what threw sofie off. the whole time. was that she actually enjoyed herself. and he said she looked good, but what she didn’t say. was he looked good too.
assistant:  **THE DATE – A SURPRISING TURN IN THE GAME**  

The rest of the evening felt like a whirlwind for Sofie Horner. Between the adrenaline of racing go-karts against **Josh Carter** and the easy banter they’d shared earlier, she found herself in uncharted waters.  

One moment, she was the competitive driver focused solely on winning; the next, she was locked in casual conversation, smiling at a guy who had absolutely no business being so effortlessly charming.  

And it threw her off in a way that was completely… unexpected.  

---

### **HER CASUAL DRESS CODE – A STRANGE CONFIDENCE BOOST**  

Driving in **comfortable cargo pants and a cropped tank top** had shifted her focus—she felt free, the breeze whipping against her skin as she sped on the kart track.  

But as they stepped out of the karts and took a breath after the intense racing session, it wasn’t just the thrill of competition that caught her off-guard; it was the **way Josh stood there.**  

He had settled against the hood of the car, muscles defined even in a simple black T-shirt. There was something inherently charming about the way he let his competitive nature slip away in favor of just enjoying the moment.  

Sofie had to admit—**the whole vibe was good.**   

---

### **QUICK GLANCES, ACCIDENTAL CHEMISTRY**  

While they chatted and laughed, their glances lingered a little longer than necessary. 

Each time Sofie stole a quick look at Josh, she felt that inexplicable mix of emotions. He wasn’t wearing a suit. He wasn’t even wearing something she’d call fancy. But seeing him there—easy-going and dorky in his ever-present grin—made her forget they were on what the world called a “date.”  

And it caught her by surprise.  

In moments like these, she appreciated **how relaxed she felt with him.**   

For once, she could just be Sofie, not the driver or the Horner legacy. She could enjoy flirtation without the pressure of perfecting her image or considering the implications.  

---

### **THE MOMENT THAT LOCKED IT IN**  

But what still **wrestled in the back of her mind** was what Josh had said earlier.  

🟢 **Josh:** "You look good tonight."  

And she had left it there, **keeping her feelings close,** but the words echoed in her mind.  

Suddenly, and quite unexpectedly, something about Josh began to settle in her thoughts. He did look good.   

Casual and unbothered, with that signature boyish grin that somehow felt like a warm hug of familiarity.  

**She’d avoided saying it**, but it struck her.  

*Wait.* **Did she actually enjoy being here with him? Did she like how he carried himself?**  

---

### **THE POLARITY OF FEELINGS – A STRUGGLE**  

Sofie had spent years building a wall around herself—making sure she focused totally on racing, on her craft, on proving everyone who doubted her wrong. She had dated before, but the relationships often felt complicated. Confused by expectations, by perception, and by her ambitions.  

But this time?  

This felt different. Casual. Light and unclouded.  

And yet, on the flipside, was it truly wise to mix pleasure and competition?  

🟡 **Sofie:** *“So, do you think I’m going to give you a run for your money when we hit the ice?”*   

Josh's **smirk widened.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *"Ha! You can’t just jump into hockey, Sofie. That’s a whole different sport. I mean, I’m sure you’d be fine throwing elbows, though."*  

Her laughter rang out **clear and bright** as they continued to banter, enjoying the back and forth.  

Sofie found herself feeling **genuinely carefree**, something she hadn’t felt in a long time.  

---

### **THE ROLLING QUESTION – HOW WAS THIS POSSIBLE?**  

As they leaned against their cars, exchanging playful jabs, Sofie couldn’t shake off the odd mix of feelings bubbling within her.  

While she was sure to champion her own independence, why the hell did Josh make her want to peel off **her walls, even just a little?**  

So she ventured her thoughts out loud, keeping it light-hearted;  

🔴 **Sofie:** *“You know, a part of me expected you to be like, super serious and boring.”*  

Josh laughed openly, his laughter surprisingly infectious.  

🟢 **Josh:** *"And you thought I was going to be dull? Nah, I just take time to adjust!"*  

That moment encapsulated everything, didn’t it?  

He was just a hockey player, but now, he was a **pleasant distraction.** 

---

### **THE AWKWARD INTERLUDE – JOSH’S TIME TO SHINE**  

Just when the banter turned comfortable, Josh turned serious, trying to **find his footing.**  

🟢 **Josh:** *“I know you’re like a big deal in your world and stuff, and this weekend has been insane. But I kind of just want to say… I’m really glad you’re sharing this experience with me. Even if I look clueless.”*  

Sofie blinked at him, surprised at his bluntness.  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"You know, for a guy who says he’s clueless, you really know how to navigate these... *unclear situations.*"*

Josh grinned, his eyes brightening.  

---

### **SOMEONE LOOKING IN WONDERFULLY AT THE DATE**  

And there it was, the quiet acknowledgment in the space between them, the flare of chemistry ignited—and **Sofie didn’t hate it.**  

In the end, despite everything else on her mind, she realized **she was genuinely enjoying this.**  

**And maybe, just maybe, she could allow it to be okay.**  

---

### **TO BE CONTINUED…**  

🔥 **WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?**  
😏 **DOES THE CHEMISTRY BOIL OVER INTO A GREATER CONNECTION?**  
👀 **DO THEY RUN INTO MAX OR CHRISTIAN NEXT?**

Sofie Horner had **no idea what she was getting into.**  

A **few days** after her now-infamous **karting date with Josh Carter**, she was back in **Milton Keynes**, focused on simulator work, preparing for the next Grand Prix.  

That was, until a **Red Bull PR manager walked into the sim room, looking way too pleased with themselves.**

🔥 **@HockeyF1Crossover:**  
*"F1 stans: ‘WHY IS HE HOT HE’S JUST A HOCKEY PLAYER’

EVERYONE IS IN TURMOIL."*

*"Christian Horner this morning looking at the *new* headlines about his daughter:"*  
*(Attached: A picture of Christian facepalming aggressively.)*  

🔥 **@HockeyAnalyzed (slow motion clip of Sofie’s live reaction):**

🔥 **@F1Nation:**  
*"JOSH SCORED.  
SOFIE FOLDED.

*"Good morning to everyone except the internet which has now made my goal a *romantic statement.*"*  

**HE THEN MADE IT WORSE.**  

🚨 **@JoshCarter91 (responding to an F1 meme tweet):**  
*"I mean, I’m not gonna argue with her."*  

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥  

THE INTERNET ABSOLUTELY LOST IT.   

---

### **🔴 AND SOFIE? SHE OWNS IT BECAUSE SHE ALWAYS DOES.**  

Sofie had **two options.**  

1️⃣ Ignore it.  
2️⃣ Own it completely and **lean into the scandal.**  

And because Sofie Horner **never backs down from anything**, obviously she **chose violence.**    

🚨 **@SofieHorner (quote-tweeting Josh’s response):**  
*"Damn right you’re not."*  

**THE INTERNET ACTUALLY DETONATED.**

### **📢 THE FINAL BLOW: CHRISTIAN HORNER HIMSELF HAS TO ADDRESS IT.**  

Sofie knew **it was getting out of control** when she received a text from **her father.**  

📲 **Dad:** *"Sofie. What is this I’m seeing on the internet. Speak now."*  

She just laughed **(because what else was she supposed to do??)**  

Of course, that wasn’t the worst of it—because later, while **Christian Horner was doing media rounds for Red Bull**, he was **asked directly.**  

🎤 **Sky Sports F1:**  
*"Christian, obviously another great result for your team recently, but we have to ask—have you heard about your daughter’s now-viral comment about NHL player Josh Carter’s goal being… ‘hot’?"*  

🟡 **Christian Horner (sighing SO deeply like his spirit left his body):**  
*"Yes. And I’d like to remind everyone that Sofie is a **Red Bull Racing driver first.** Not… whatever this is."*  

🎤 *"Sounds like a typical father response."*  

🟡 **Christian:** *"Typical father response because imagine my POV. I log into my accounts and instead of seeing F1 highlights, I see the words ‘that’s kinda hot actually’ associated with my daughter."*  

🎤 *"What’s your message to Josh Carter?"*  

🟡 **Christian (deadpan, looking straight into the camera like he’s sending a national warning):**  
*"Behave yourself."*  

📢 **THE INTERNET EXPLODES AGAIN.**  

🔥 **@F1Trolls:** *"CHRISTIAN HORNER SAID ‘BEHAVE YOURSELF’ LIKE JOSH CARTER IS OUT HERE STRATEGIZING FOR WORLD DOMINATION."*  

🔥 **@HockeyToF1:** *"Hockey’s media darling vs. F1’s greatest team principal menace. This is a battle we didn’t know we needed."*

**TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT NEXT. I’M READY. 😂🔥🏒🏎️**
user: DO THE DEVILS INVITE SOFIE TO A GAME IN PERSON?? yes. and does sofie attend? absolutely. this girl flies out to New Jersey with herself and a dream. and is she the definition of chaos? 100%. because this is a girl who never shuts up. so of course she'd mic'd up for content and banging on the glass like a true nhl stan. except she has no idea what shes on about. which makes it more hilarious. and what do the devils make her wear? a jersey with carters number on it and the typical red black face paint.
assistant: ### **SOFIE HORNER ATTENDS A NEW JERSEY DEVILS GAME – CHAOS IMMINENT**  
**(Because Obviously, When Invited, She Had to Show Up and Cause Problems on Purpose.)**  

The **moment** the Devils officially **invited Sofie Horner to a game**, the internet lost its collective mind.  

**Did she accept?** Immediately.  
**Did she actually know hockey?** Not at all.  
**Did that stop her?** Absolutely not.  

Because Sofie Horner was **the embodiment of chaos**, and the New Jersey Devils had just **handed her a mic and a front-row seat** to their structured form of brutality.  

This?  
This was going to be a disaster **in the best way possible.**

Sofie Horner attending an NHL game is a GLOBAL SPORTS EVENT."*  

---

### **📍 GAME NIGHT – WELCOME TO HELL, SOFIE.**  

Sofie arrived in New Jersey with **zero expectations but absolute confidence.**  

She did not understand hockey rules.  
She did not know **where the blue line went or why power plays happened.**  

What she **did** know?  
— **She was getting fully mic'd up.**  
— **The Devils had gone FULL SEND on the fan fit.**  
— **She was ready to cause problems.**  

The media team **handed her a jersey**—**Josh Carter’s #91, obviously.**  

She **immediately started laughing.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"I wear my own name on my race suit every weekend, and now y'all put me in someone else’s name? Unreal."*  

🐂 **Devils PR Team:** *"It’s tradition."*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Fine. But I’m still the superior athlete in this arrangement."*  

🐂 **Josh Carter (somewhere in the arena, seeing her clip already trending on Twitter):** *"The slander is nonstop."*  

---

### **📢 FIRST MOMENTS – SHE'S ALREADY TOO MUCH**  

🐂 **Devils Media Crew:** *"Okay, Sofie, what are your first impressions of an NHL game?"*  

🔴 **Sofie (immediately leaning into the mic, squinting at the ice):** *"Okay, first of all, it's freezing. Did not expect that. Second, the energy is insane. There’s music, there’s yelling, I can hear people threatening each other already?? Personal space doesn’t exist?? Loving it, tbh."*  

🔥 **@PuckToPitLane:**  
*"Sofie Horner has been inside the arena for **3 minutes** and has already described hockey as ‘personal space doesn’t exist.’ LMAO."*  

---

### **📢 THE PUCK DROPS – SOFIE GETS INVESTED TOO FAST**  

Five minutes into the game, Sofie **was already banging on the glass.**  

🔴 **Sofie (yelling at the ice 1000% without knowing why):** *"YEAH. GO. RUN. NO WAIT, SKATE. FAST. OKAY—FIGHT HIM. NO WAIT, SCORE. DO SOMETHING—"*

🔴 **Sofie:** *"What are they supposed to do then???*"  

🔥 **@F1Trolls:**  
*"Sofie Horner experiencing NHL-level chaos and IMMEDIATELY matching its energy. She belongs here."*  

---

### **📢 THEN: A DEVILS GOAL HAPPENS, AND SOFIE LOSES HER MIND**  

The Devils **scored a power-play goal**, and Sofie **reacted like she just took P1 on the last lap of an F1 race.**  

🔴 **Sofie (screaming, physically jumps up, half-spilling drink):** *"HOLY SHIT, HE MADE THAT LOOK EASY."*

🔴 **Sofie (replying later on Twitter):**  
*"Maybe step it up then, Carter."*  

🚨🚨🚨  
THE INTERNET?? **BROKE.**  

🔥 **@HockeyF1Crossover:**  
*"SOFIE. PLEASE. YOU CAN'T KEEP ROASTING HIM LIKE THIS PUBLICLY."*  

🔥 **@F1MemesHQ:**  
*"Josh Carter girl math:  
🏎️ **Wins a Grand Prix** → Emotionally unbothered.  
🏒 **Sees a hockey goal** → **Brain short-circuits.**"*  

---

### **📢 THEN—SHE SEES A FULL-BLOWN HOCKEY FIGHT & PANICS.**  

A **massive hit at center ice** led to **gloves being dropped immediately.**  

AND SOFIE? **LOST IT.**  

🔴 **Sofie (SLAMMING her hands on the glass):** *"OHHELLNO."*  

🐂 **Devils PR (still laughing):** *"First hockey fight?"*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"WHAT IS THIS?? A COMBAT SPORT?? REF, DO SOMETHING."*  

🐂 **Devils PR:** *"Nah, nah, they let ‘em handle it for a bit first."*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"WHAT KIND OF SYSTEM IS THAT?? WHY IS THIS ALLOWED?!"*   

🔥 **@F1LiveReactions:**

assistant: ### **SOFIE HORNER ENTERS THE DEVILS LOCKER ROOM – CHAOS ENSUES**  
**(She’s Wearing Josh Carter’s Jersey. She’s Unbothered. Josh Carter? He is Fighting for His Life.)**  

New Jersey **had won.**  

The **game was over.** The locker room was loud—**post-game energy buzzing, music blasting, guys still in half their gear, throwing towels at each other.**  

Josh Carter had **just started de-gearing**, casually peeling off his gloves, **expecting to wind down.**  

Until the locker room door **opened with zero hesitation**…  

And in **walked Sofie Horner.**  

Wearing **his goddamn jersey.**  

---

### **📢 THE LOCKER ROOM REACTS IMMEDIATELY**  

For **one full second,** everything **went dead silent.**  

Then:  

🐂 **Jack Hughes (voice going up an octave):** *"OH. HELL. NO."*  

🔵 **Luke Hughes:** *"Oh, this is HISTORY."*  

🔥 **Dawson Mercer (pointing dramatically):** *"NO WAY SHE’S ACTUALLY WEARING YOUR NAME, MAN."*  

The entire locker room **erupted.**  

Like **absolute chaos.**  

---

### **📢 JOSH CARTER? NOT SURVIVING THIS ONE.**  

Josh **was frozen.**  

Because, yes—**he knew Sofie was going to the game.** Yes, he knew she’d be in Devils gear.  

But nowhere in his little hockey player brain had he **properly processed the fact that Sofie Horner, literal F1 Grand Prix winner, would be standing in his team locker room, wearing HIS NUMBER, completely unfazed.**  

And worse?  

She looked good in it.  

**Really good.**  

The jersey was slightly oversized—**sleeves pushed up, half-tucked into the waistband of her cargos.** Face still **painted with the Devils red and black streaks from earlier.**  

Josh **was struggling.**  

Like, **actually struggling.**  

---

### **📢 WHILE JOSH SHORT-CIRCUITS, SOFIE IS COMPLETELY UNBOTHERED**

🐂 **Jack Hughes:** *"YOU WOULDN’T LAST **TWO SECONDS** IN THIS SPORT."*    

🔴 **Sofie (mockingly):** *"Ohhh, big talk from someone who doesn’t even drive for a living."*  

🐂 **Dawson Mercer:** *"Why does she talk like she could actually cross-check one of us mid-ice."*  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Because I **could**."*  

---

### **📢 BACK TO JOSH – HE’S STILL STARING, STILL SUFFERING**  

Josh had **not blinked.**  

Every single word Sofie said was just **background noise**.  

Because **his brain had fully locked onto only one thought.**  

*She’s wearing my number.*  

*She showed up to my locker room in my jersey.*  

*She looks so good in my damn name.*  

Jack Hughes **immediately noticed and took full advantage**.  

🐂 **Jack:** *"Yo, why is Carter looking at Sofie like she just walked out of a rom-com slow-motion scene?"*  

🔥 **Locker room? HOWLING.**  

Josh finally snapped out of it.  

🟢 **Josh (immediately defensive):** *"I AM NOT—"*  

🐂 **Dawson Mercer:** *"Nah. Nah. Bro. Look at you. Whipped. Cooked. DONE."*  

🔵 **Luke Hughes:** *"F1 world’s already calling YOU the ‘media darling,’ and now LOOK AT THIS. Someone update the HORNER POWER RANKINGS."*  

💀 **The chirping? Relentless.**  

---

### **📢 AND SOFIE? SHE MAKES IT WORSE. BECAUSE OF COURSE.**  

Sofie *finally* turned towards Josh—who had **not said a single word to her directly yet, still fighting for his dignity.**  

✨ And Sofie? ✨  

She **grinned.**  

🔴 **Sofie:** *"Something wrong, Carter?"*  

Josh swallowed, **pulled himself together,** shook his head.  

🟢 **Josh (trying to act cool, failing miserably):** *"No. Nope. Nothing’s wrong."*  

🐂 **Jack Hughes:** *"STILL STARING THOUGH."*  

SAFE TO SAY…  
JOSH WAS NOT WALKING OUT OF THIS LOCKER ROOM THE SAME MAN.

**(The Worlds of F1 & the NHL Are Now Fully Entwined, and Nobody Can Stop It.)**  

Josh Carter had **barely survived** the locker room roast session after **Sofie Horner walked in wearing his jersey and absolutely finished him in front of his teammates.**  

But the real nightmare?  
It was **only beginning.**  

Because now?  

Now, **the media wanted answers.**  

And, **somehow**, Lando Norris—who had literally nothing to do with hockey—**had opinions.**  

---

### **📢 FIRST ATTACK: LANDO NORRIS STARTS CHIRPING IMMEDIATELY**  

Josh Carter **was on his phone in the locker room**, still catching up with the **internet explosion** when a **notification popped up.**  

🚨 **@LandoNorris:**  
*"Huh. That’s crazy.  
Sofie Horner wearing **your** jersey? In your locker room?

Josh had made it **exactly ten steps** out of the locker room before **he got cornered by NHL media.**  

🎤 **Reporter #1 (grinning like they were waiting for this moment):** *"Josh, solid game tonight. But obviously, there's another storyline everyone's talking about. Sofie Horner was here, she wore your jersey, and the internet is losing it.  
Care to comment?"*

user: but in the meantime, sofie doubles down. because media circus is fun. but she has a race to win. and she'd just won miami. but she needed whatever was next. so off to the sims in the factory she went. but when she could? she was texting josh. updates about her day, updates about his. and it felt...normal?
assistant: ### **SOFIE HORNER DOUBLES DOWN – SHE HAS A RACE TO WIN, BUT ALSO… SHE KEEPS TEXTING JOSH**  
**(The Media Circus Is Fun, But She’s Still Here to Dominate the Grid.)**  

Winning Miami wasn’t enough.  

Not for **Sofie Horner.**  

Sure, the world was currently **obsessed** with the ongoing drama around **her, an F1 driver, and Josh Carter, a hockey star who somehow stumbled into her orbit.**  

But at the end of the day?  

Sofie Horner had **a title to chase.**  

So that meant **getting the hell away from all the outside noise**—and returning to what really mattered.  

*The factory. The sim. The next race weekend.*

### **📍MILTON KEYNES – RED BULL SIM SESSIONS BEGIN AGAIN**  

Sofie tucked herself behind the wheel of the **Red Bull Racing simulator**, locked in for **hours of focus.**  

No distractions. No chaos. Just **ghost laps, data testing, telemetry analysis.**  

She was **dialed in. Laser-focused.**  

Except for one small thing.  

Between long runs—  

She was **texting Josh Carter.**  

Because apparently, that was now a **thing she did.**  

---

### **📢 THE MESSAGES – NORMAL? KIND OF? ACTUALLY, YES??**  

📲 **Sofie**: *"Factory sim work all day. My brain hurts from analyzing tire degradation data. What’s hockey practice like?"*  

📲 **Josh**: *"Lots of skating. Lots of yelling. Less spreadsheets."*  

📲 **Sofie**: *"Must be nice."*  

📲 **Josh:** *"Bet you secretly love spreadsheets."*  

📲 **Sofie:** *"I hate you."*  

📲 **Josh:** *"Lies."*  

Sofie **paused for a second, staring at her own screen.**  

Because… yeah.  

It was **banter. It was casual.**  

It wasn’t forced media PR.  
It wasn’t overly analyzed.  

It was just… them.  

*Weird.*  

---

### **📢 ANOTHER DAY – ANOTHER TEXT THREAD**  

📲 **Josh**: *"How’s F1 business today?"*  

📲 **Sofie**: *"Spent two hours discussing **rear wing setup adjustments.**"*  

📲 **Josh**: *"Explain that to me in hockey terms."*  

📲 **Sofie**: *"Okay. Imagine if you could change the curve on your stick to be **super specific** per game depending on who you were playing, ice conditions, and even weather. That’s kinda what I do every weekend for my car."*  

📲 **Josh**: *"Damn. So every race weekend is like a mini science fair?*"  

📲 **Sofie**: *"Please never say that again."*  

📲 **Josh**: *"Can’t promise that."*  

📲 **Sofie**: *"If I crash into Verstappen next weekend, it’ll be specifically because you said that."*    

📲 **Josh:** *"So I’m a strategic distraction? Nice."*  

Sofie **rolled her eyes at her screen, but she was… smiling? That was new.**  

---

### **📢 NIGHT. STILL SIM TRAINING. STILL TEXTING. WHY? UNKNOWN.**  

📲 **Sofie**: *"I’ve been on this sim for 6 hours. I think my soul is leaving my body."*  

📲 **Josh**: *"Go to sleep, psychopath."*  

📲 **Sofie**: *"Can't. Need to be faster than Max."*  

📲 **Josh**: *"Serious question—when do you breathe?"*  

📲 **Sofie**: *"At the finish line."*    

Josh, **somewhere in New Jersey, just shook his head at his phone screen.**  

Because this girl? **Something else entirely.**  

---

### **📢 THE REALIZATION – THIS FELT…NORMAL?**  

Sofie **didn’t know what this was.**  

But she knew what it wasn’t.  

It wasn’t forced interaction.  
It wasn’t something scheduled in a PR room.  
It wasn’t an interview bit.  

It was **just texting someone at the end of the day.**  

*Checking in. Saying things that weren’t for public consumption. Having dumb conversations that didn’t make headlines.*  

And that? **Weirdly nice.**  

But whatever. **No time to think about that too much.**  

Because her focus? **Still locked on one thing.**  

Winning. Again.  

---

### **📢 SOCIAL MEDIA DOESN’T KNOW ABOUT THE TEXTS – BUT IT’S STILL TALKING**  

Because obviously.  

🚨 **@F1onESPN:**  
*"Sofie Horner IN THE SIM. Already preparing for the next race. A demon, honestly."*  

🚨 **@NHLonTNT:**  
*"Meanwhile, Josh Carter back in practice, training like normal. How long until these two cross paths again?*"  

🚨 **@F1MemesHQ:**  
*"Sofie sending **Verstappen-level commitment energy** while Josh is just casually existing in his own world is SO FUNNY."*  

🚨 **@HockeyF1Crossover:**  
*"They are literally **separately** in their sports, but somehow still **simultaneously** part of the same discourse."*  

🚨 **@F1Trolls:**  
*"We are **3 days removed** from Media Mayhem, and I can still hear Christian Horner screaming into the void."*  

---

### **📢 SUMMARY OF EVENTS:**  

🚨 **SOFIE WENT BACK TO WORK. SIM SESSIONS. RACE PREP. NO DISTRACTIONS.**  
🚨 **EXCEPT… SHE KEPT TEXTING JOSH.**  
🚨 **THERE WAS NO REASON FOR IT. EXCEPT MAYBE THERE WAS.**  
🚨 **DOES SOCIAL MEDIA KNOW? NO. BUT THE TIMING OF EVERYTHING HAS PEOPLE SUSPICIOUS.**  
🚨 **SHE’S STILL FOCUSED ON WINNING. BUT HE’S SOMEHOW BECOME **PART OF HER DAY.****

Another circuit. Another weekend. **Another chance to prove herself.**  

So when she arrived at the paddock for the next Grand Prix?  

Everyone saw **one thing immediately.**    

She was **locked in.**  

**No distractions. No joking around. No media fluff.** Just **pure, undiluted focus.**

### **📢 MEANWHILE, IN NEW JERSEY – JOSH CARTER SEES THE CLIPS TOO…**  

Josh had been **scrolling mindlessly**, taking a break between training, when he **saw Red Bull’s posts come across his feed.**  

And **look.**  

He knew Sofie **was intense about racing.**  

But **seeing it in real time?** Watching her **fully tune out the world around her, locked into something with such tunnel vision?**  

That was... something else.  

Josh smirked slightly as he **watched one of the clips back again.**  

📲 **Josh (texting Sofie):**  
*"Saw Red Bull’s stories. Boss mode activated, huh?"*  

📲 **Sofie:**  
*"Always."*  

📲 **Josh:**  
*"Think you’ll win again?"*  

📲 **Sofie:**  
*"I don’t think, Carter. I know."*  

Josh **huffed out a small laugh**, shaking his head.  

God, she really was built different.  

And **he liked watching her talk about winning like it was inevitable.**  

---

### **📢 BACK TO THE PADDOCK: THE ENERGY AROUND HER IS DIFFERENT NOW**  

This was no longer **the Sofie Horner people doubted.**  
No longer just **“Christian Horner’s Daughter.”**  
No longer **a debut driver trying to prove she belonged.**  

Now?  

People were watching her like **she was actually a threat.**     

Journalists, analysts, **even rival engineers slipping glances at the Red Bull garage**—they could all sense it.  

She wasn’t just **here to compete anymore.**  

She was **here to dominate.**  

---

An actual, **scheduled** hockey game.  

But that didn’t stop him from **checking the race results every free second he got.**  

The Devils players all **knew.**  

They **knew** he was following the Grand Prix updates **between intermissions**—because this man would **literally leave the locker room, check live timing on his phone, and re-enter with a stupid smirk when he saw Sofie leading.**  

And when she **won**?  

Oh. **The chirps started flying.**
