Summary
"What do you want?"
"Heard you hadn't left yet, so I thought I might pass by to say hi."
"Careful, then," George warns him, crossing his arms with a frown, "I'm not of good company tonight. Like, at all."
Max shrugs. "Hm, I figured. You agreed with me in front of the stewards."
"It was a small incident." George replies, rolling his eyes. Max keeps going like he's never been interrupted.
"See? It's why I brought these." Max smile turns wide and bright as he lifts up two bottles of champagne.---

Summary
George lets out a cold puff of air and shivers before speaking again. "So your dad is like, a player? Or a volunteer?"
This George guy is really testing his luck with Max, today. And it's not that Max doesn't want to engage in conversation about how amazing his father's career is - without mentioning Turin - but he doesn't see a point in doing so with a stranger he only started talking to because he caught him staring.
But still, his mother educated him well. So he restrains himself from rolling his eyes and clears his throat. "He's on the speed skating team."

or: Max is a Speed Skater, George a Figure Skater. Their love story, told by the five times they meet at the Olympics, from Vancouver to Milano-Cortina. -

Summary
Max wasn't really a sport guy, never had been (much to his father's dismay). But he had promised he would have gone to at least one of his friends' matches of the season, so there he was, watching what he assumed was the final match of the tournament.
Ah, the things he did for his friends. And, to be fair, they did promise to go to the concert that night with him if he showed up to the game.
Not that Max needed an emotional support or anything, but George had started to spot him during his performances. He couldn't have him thinking crazy stuff like that Max was there for him and not for the music, so Max had invited Charles and Carlos as well.
or: au where they all go to high school in the US. Oh, and Max is desperately in love with George. The fact they haven't spoken in eight months is just a small detail, nothing to worry about.

Summary
Max ran fast, shoes' heels clicking against the hard concrete sidewalk as he got rid of the now blood stained jacket, throwing it away somewhere near a dumpster. His breath was irregular, unable to think straight, the only thing his brain could come up with was the he had to find a place to rest and plan, legs moving almost on their own as he refused to do as much as look back to check where pursuers were.
Stupid, stupid stupid.
He shouldn't have agreed to it in the first place, but now? Now Max had managed to make the whole thing so much worse, blatantly refusing to complete the job. Now Max was running for his life, desperately searching for a place to hide. What a stupid, ridicolous thing this whole story was, risking to die just because he fell in love. Stupid George Russell, and stupid Max for falling for him.
---
Or, Max is an assassin who's job is to use George to complete his mission. Everything goes smoothly, until his feelings decide to fuck everything up.

Summary
To millions of people, Max Verstappen and George Russell are Formula 1 drivers who fight tooth and nail for the championship. But what many people don’t know is that they first crossed paths as kids sharing a karting podium, only for different racing paths to tear them apart. Years later, a reunion on the big stage of Formula 1 brought them back into each other’s orbits. What started as a late-night chat in Spa quickly turned into a deeply passionate, strictly secret romance hidden away from the flashing cameras and relentless paddock pressure.
Hiding a love that huge under a global microscope is a heavy burden until they finally decide it’s time to throw the script and finally step into the light together.
or, Max and George’s love story based on a song by Olivia Rodrigo, drop dead.

Summary
Sheriff Verstappen wasn’t impressed when he heard about the eccentric new cleric taking over the church—the priest was too pretty for a man, prim and obnoxiously polite for a town crawling with sinners.
But, when a shocking murder took place upon the priest's arrival, he realized that behind the mask of sanctity lurked sinister secrets, seemingly haunting his own past.
The question, thus, remained: who will confess first?

Summary
After a disappointing race, the 2019 Rookies decide to go clubbing to distract themselves. With the caveat that this is Alex and Lando's pity party, and an even bigger caveat that George is not allowed to get drunk.
George gets drunk anyways. And along the way, he finds Max, who he fought just hours before. Only good things can come out of that.

Summary
“I’m George,” the guy – George – says, not offering a hand. “Nice weather out here, don’t know how you race like this.”
Max is busy staring at the pearly whites blinding him. There’s no way this guy hasn’t had work done. Lips like those, plump and pouty, would probably burst if Max bit on them. The paddock has become a cesspool of influencers and celebrities since Netflix came in with their cameras, but it still rubs Max the wrong way, how they prance around knowing nothing about racing and offering their inane opinions.
“It’s fine,” he dismisses, gripping the ball. “I’m good at what I do.”
“I’m sure you are,” George says, flashing another cookie-cutter smile. “Good luck on Sunday, then.”
alternatively, max learns that loving a man doesn't have to be painful
