The drivers were now in Bahrain for preseason testing,

And unfortunately for Red Bull their drivers still weren't on good terms.

"Do you want to go out before or after Max?" Christian asked as he crossed his arms,

"I really don't mind," Francesca shrugged as she finished fixing her braid,

"I don't trust her," Max shook his head as he spoke up,

"She can go behind me," he added as he put on his gloves,

"You know that if I wasn't a decent driver I wouldn't be here right?" The Scot pointed out with a scoff,

"Well you haven't driven in a season so don't crash into me," the Dutchman shot back with a glare,

"I wouldn't take myself out like that," the girl crossed her arms as she pressed her lips into a thin line,

"You two that is enough," Christian quickly motioned to them to cut it out,

"Get in your cars and there will be two in between you," he added as he didn't want to have them fighting on the first day,

"Works for me," Francesca nodded as she grabbed her helmet,

"Likewise," Max nodded in agreement as he watched the girl walk past him,

"Dick," the Scot mumbled as she shook her head,

"I heard that," the Dutchman sent her a glare as she turned to him before getting into her car,

"You were meant to," she explained with a smirk.

The day of testing was coming to an end and all of the other drivers wanted to get to know about the new Red Bull racer,

Well except for Max of course.

"You did well today," Lewis smiled as he wrapped his arm around her,

When she joined Mercedes the duo clicked straight off the bat and she was like the little sibling he never had.

"Thank you," Francesca nodded as she looked up to him,

"You did too," she added as she was impressed with the car,

"We all have a tradition where we go to a restaurant and have dinner," the Brit began as they walked back to the cars,

"Just the drivers," he added causing the girl to grow confused,

"Yeah?" The Scot furrowed her eyebrows as she didn't know where he was going,

"You should come," the boy explained,

"It's the easiest way to get to know everyone," he added with a smile,

"I don't know if I should," the girl sighed as she tucked her hair behind her ear,

"I'm pretty sure Max doesn't like me," she added knowing that they didn't get off on the right foot,

"Screw him," Lewis grumbled as he shook his head,

"There are still seventeen other drivers," he added in a softer tone,

"Eighteen," Francesca corrected him,

"Huh?" The Brit cocked his head,

"There are eighteen other drivers if you take me and Max out of the equation," she explained in a duh tone,

"I like you so that's number three," the boy smiled as he watched her smile,

"I'll come," the girl nodded as she finally gave in,

"You didnt have a choice," Lewis punched the air as he was glad that the girl was coming.

Somehow Francesca found herself lodged in between 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐄𝐒 𝐋𝐄𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐑𝐂 and 𝐆𝐄𝐎𝐑𝐆𝐄 𝐑𝐔𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐋𝐋 for the evening,

"So what are your thoughts on being Max's teammate so far?" Charles asked curiously as he cocked his head,

"Kill me now," Francesca grumbled as she ate a piece of bread,

"I take it that he is still a shitty partner then," George let out a laugh,

"Don't be that loud he is right there," the Scot elbowed him as she shook her head,

"He isn't the easiest to get along with as a partner," the Brit explained with a sigh,

"Just ask Daniel," he added motioning to the Dutchman's Ex teammate,

"Why didn't you give me the heads up?" Francesca asked as she looked at Lewis,

"I didn't know you were leaving," Lewis quickly raised his hands in surrender,

"I found out when you told Toto," he added in a duh tone,

"Yeah that's right," the girl nodded remembering that she had forgotten to tell him,

"Well any advice on surviving with him?" She added with a sigh hoping that someone would be able to help her.

"You are going to need a lot of sanity," George had been with the girl in F2 so he didn't know how well she would survive with him.

"And win a lot of races," Charles added in a duh tone,

"I get that it would help me in the job but how does it when him?" Francesca asked as she cocked her head,

"Brings him back down to earth," the Monegasque explained as he shrugged.

"Christian has been blowing wind up his arse for way too long," the younger Brit added as he shook his head,
