The following day, on a sunny Sunday, Alexandra found herself standing in her new AlphaTauri garage, anticipation and excitement building as the Barcelona Grand Prix was about to begin. Paddy, her engineer from Mercedes, stood beside her, going over the race strategy one last time.
As the lights went out, the cars roared to life, hurtling down the straight, and Alexandra's heart pounded with adrenaline. Watching the race from her new garage brought a mix of emotions. She couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for the time she spent with Charles and the Ferrari team, but she also felt a newfound sense of belonging with AlphaTauri.
Throughout the race, Alexandra's focus was keenly on the track. The high-speed action and intense battles between drivers mesmerized her. She was eager to learn from her new team and observe their strategies, hoping to improve her own racing skills as she prepared for her debut season with them.
However, as the laps went by, her excitement turned to concern when she noticed Charles' car slowing down on the track. The live feed showed that he had a DNF due to engine issues. Her heart sank for him, knowing how much effort and dedication he put into each race.
Paddy noticed her distress and placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. "It's tough out there," he said softly. "Things can change in an instant in this sport."
She nodded, trying to keep her emotions in check. It was part of racing, the highs, and lows, but seeing Charles facing disappointment weighed heavily on her.
As the race continued, Alexandra's focus shifted back to her own team's performance. She cheered on Pierre Gasly, watching as he fought hard for positions and showcased his skill on the track. Her admiration for her teammate grew, and she felt an even stronger drive to prove herself alongside him next season.
Throughout the rest of the race, Alexandra and Paddy worked closely together, analyzing the data and strategizing for their future races. Despite the disappointment of Charles' DNF, she was determined to stay positive and learn as much as she could from every experience.
As the checkered flag waved, Pierre secured a solid finish for AlphaTauri, bringing a sense of satisfaction to Alexandra. She felt proud of the team's performance and was excited about what the future held for her in Formula 1.
After the race, Alexandra made her way to the paddock, eager to check in with Charles. She found him standing outside his team's garage, a mix of frustration and determination in his eyes. She approached him, offering a supportive smile.
"Hey, Charles," she said softly. "Are you okay?"
He looked grateful for her kind words, a glimmer of a smile forming. "Thanks, Lexi," he replied. "That's racing, I guess. I'll learn from it and come back stronger."
"I have no doubt about that," she said sincerely. "And hey, maybe we'll have some great battles on the track next season." she teased, knowing how much he was secretly looking forward to competing against her.
