I’m gonna try to write this
You’re a shopkeeper who sells liquid dreams. People come to your shop for many reasons; self revelation, escapism, to see a gone loved one or for a precious good night sleep. Your shop is located between dimensions so no visitor can come twice. However, recently you’ve seemed to gain a regular.
don't know what else to write
made this as a bday present for my sister :))

I love rizzly by jesus FUCK is he a pain in the ass to draw. i shit you not it took me like an entire day to figure out how to draw his gauntlets

"it's cool bro we will just share this one ember bro i'm tired of acting casual btw"
pairings: retired f1 drivers x retired f1 legend!yn
faceclaim: jessica alba
summary: exposing the truth about her time in f1 set the world on fire. but when the internet thought they’d solved the mystery of x, yn yln proved once again that nothing in her story is ever that simple.
warnings: mentions of misogyny. also this will have the reveal of x, please don’t send any hate! this is fictional and it doesn’t mean i dislike the driver or anything like that.
final part of the lucky girl syndrome series <3
author’s note: okay the final instalment!!! the love that you guys have given to the series is insane and i’m really happy everyone has enjoyed it and gotten so invested!! thank you so much. if you enjoyed, maybe buy me a coffee? <3

user7: yn is so brave for agreeing. the way the paddock treated her was so disgusting.
-> user8: okay but why you acting like yn herself didn’t cause drama back in the day? she wasn’t innocent.
-> user9: nobody said she was innocent, we said she wasn’t treated fairly.
user10: BADDIES F1 REUNION 😻
user11: yn showing up to this after years of silence is so iconic.
-> user12: i still can’t believe she hasn’t done a f1 related event since she retired.
-> user13: hello what about her memoir?
-> user12: her memoir is about her?? it’s not affiliated with f1, she writes about her time there because it was a huge portion of her life DUMMY
user14: need to be a fly on the wall so bad
-> user15: the amount of drama between those people alone is crazy.
user16: nico probably sweating through his shirt rn

user29: better make this an annual event because the drama is TOO GOOD.
→ user30: i think once will be enough for them, they’re gonna need therapy after this.

my relationship with lewis was… complicated. we were both anomalies in the paddock, though for very different obvious reasons. we both knew what it felt like to walk into a room and feel like you didn’t belong, to have to fight twice as hard to prove yourself, to carry the weight of representation whether you wanted to or not. but instead of bringing us closer, those shared experiences sometimes pushed us apart.
lewis was always kind to me, and i don’t want to diminish that. he understood things that no one else on the grid could, and in our quieter moments, we’d talk about what it felt like to be ‘othered’ in a sport that thrives on tradition. but those moments were rare, and when we were on track—or in the paddock—it felt like we were always circling each other, wary but never fully connecting. maybe it was because we both had walls up, or maybe it was because we each carried our own burdens and didn’t know how to share them without feeling weaker for it.

ham1ltonshaderoom: f1 trailblazers lewis hamilton and yn yln were seen at dinner in monaco three days before the legends of the grid event. eyewitnesses say that their conversation seemed intense but cordial. are they squashing old beef or discussing something else (cough x marks the spot)? either way the streets are talking and we’re listening. thoughts on this reunion ham1ltons?

user1: lewis and yn having dinner??? the way my brain is spiraling right now.
→ user2: what if they’re talking about their personal drama with nico
→ user3: or what if lewis is apologizing for… something 👀
user4: idc what anyone says, lewis x yn is my endgame. they’re the power couple the grid deserves.
→ user5: STOP. i’ve shipped them since their karting days. this is literally my fanfic coming true.
→ user6: yn is too iconic to settle for any man, even lewis.
user7: bet they’re plotting how to make nico sweat during the event lol.
→ user8: nico’s probably hiding in a corner somewhere right now.
→ user9: this dinner probably has him deleting more accounts as we speak.
user10: yn and lewis are DEFINITELY scheming. they didn’t go through all this drama just to let bygones be bygones.
→ user11: scheming? or flirting? because the chemistry is there.
→ user12: now why would yn date a man from the grid after everything she’s written about them?
user13: i need a mic under their table so bad. the tea they must’ve spilled 😭
→ user14: forget a mic, i need netflix to release a doc about this dinner specifically.
user15: yn having dinner after being a recluse for years and having so many people talk about her is so iconic. she knows she owns the grid.
→ user16: fr she didn’t even have to show up to the legends event. she just wanted to remind everyone she’s THAT girl.
user17: imagine lewis saying something like, “so about that chapter in your book…”
user18: god they’re attention seekers.
-> user17: how lol. they’re just eating? they didn’t even publicise this?
user19: lewis and yn teaming up to destroy the paddock? i’m here for it.
→ user20: team “we’re too rich, hot and iconic to care about nico.”
user21: this better not be a casual dinner. i need this to lead to chaos.
→ user22: chaos? or a second memoir? yn stays winning either way.
user23: imagine lewis pulls up to legends of the grid and is like, “yn and i are writing a joint book. enjoy.”
→ user24: stop this right now before i lose my mind.
user25: yn x lewis is the best thing to come out of this reunion already.
→ user26: yn x lewis shippers are DELUSIONAL but i respect it.

NYT Journalist: Your memoir, Lucky Girl Syndrome, has been a massive success—4.3 million copies sold in the first month, the best-selling sports memoir of all time. Were you expecting that kind of reception?
YN: Not at all. I mean, I hoped people would read it, obviously. But I thought it would mainly resonate with people who followed my career, maybe the motorsport community. I didn’t anticipate it would reach so many people outside of that world. I’ve had messages from women in all sorts of industries telling me how much it meant to see their own struggles reflected in my story. That’s been the most rewarding part—knowing it’s made people feel seen.
Journalist: But with that reception also came the drama, particularly around the identity of the unnamed X. Did you expect the public to latch onto that so intensely?
YN: I knew it would cause a stir, but I didn’t think it would turn into this… phenomenon. The whole X thing has kind of overshadowed the point of the book, in some ways. People got so caught up in the guessing game that they lost sight of the bigger picture. The book wasn’t about pointing fingers or settling scores—it was about telling my story, showing what it was like to exist in that space. X wasn’t the story; X was just one part of it.
Journalist: Do you regret including X in the memoir?
YN: No, because it was my truth. Leaving it out would’ve felt dishonest. But I do wish the conversation had been more about the broader issues I wrote about, rather than one person’s role in it. Still, if it got people talking about the misogyny in motorsport—even if it wasn’t always in the way I intended—then maybe it was worth it.
Journalist: You’ve said before that being vulnerable in the book was one of the hardest things you’ve ever done. Can you elaborate on that?
YN: Writing it was like peeling back every layer of armour I’d built over the years. Reliving some of those memories, especially the early years on the grid, was brutal. I actually couldn’t read the audiobook myself. I tried, but it dredged up too much. Thankfully, my friend Angelina [Jolie] —who I’ve known for years and who understands me on an intimate level—stepped in and did it for me. She brought so much care and empathy to it. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Hearing her voice telling my story was… cathartic in a way. It gave me a distance from the pain while still honouring and acknowledging it.
Journalist: Do you think you’ll ever fully step back into the world of F1? You’ve kept such a low profile since your retirement.
YN: I think this interview and the upcoming Legends of the Grid event are as close as I’m willing to get. Writing the memoir was cathartic, but it also made me realise how much I needed to let go of. F1 was my life for so long, and it will always be a part of me. But the woman I am now isn’t the same woman who walked into that paddock all those years ago. And I think that’s okay.

u/OverlookedEvidence:
ok, i know everyone’s convinced that x is nico, but hear me out: what if it’s actually sebastian? before you downvote me, let me explain.
yn doesn’t mention seb by name in her memoir
this is huge. yn is very deliberate with her words, and while she talks about lewis, fernando, nico, and even jenson in detail, seb is noticeably absent. she references “one driver who made my early career hell” but never names him. why would she leave seb out unless there’s a reason?
it’s not jenson
she said herself in the book that x wasn’t a teammate. that rules out jenson. also, she’s been pretty vocal about respecting jenson, even calling him a good teammate.
the timeline matches
seb was dominating the sport in the early 2010s while yn was still proving herself. if x was making dismissive comments about her being a “right car, right time” kind of driver, wouldn’t it make sense that it came from someone like seb, who was constantly winning and under a similar microscope?
the “sliding off the track” comment fits seb’s early personality
we all know seb’s reputation back then. he was ruthless, competitive, and let’s face it, a bit cocky. saying something like “at least she’ll look good sliding off the track” during a rain delay sounds exactly like early 2010s seb.
the silence speaks volumes
nico deleted his socials after the allegations, sure, but seb has been oddly quiet about yn’s book too. when asked about it, he gave a generic “it’s an important story” answer and quickly changed the subject. if he wasn’t x, wouldn’t he just say so?
the paddock dynamic
yn herself said x wasn’t overtly aggressive but rather subtle, making passive-aggressive digs that were easy to brush off as jokes. that sounds a lot more like seb’s early years than nico’s more direct approach.
but the nail in the coffin for me? yn’s line in the book about x apologizing years later but saying it didn’t matter because “the damage had already been done.” seb’s been all about redemption and growth in recent years. maybe he apologized privately, and that’s why she’s staying quiet publicly.
EDIT: look, i know seb’s had his redemption arc, and everyone loves him now (myself included), but we can’t ignore this just because it’s uncomfortable. the receipts are there.
anyway, i’m not saying it’s definitely him, but the evidence is there.
top comments:
u/nicohater: nah it’s nico. everyone knows it’s nico.
u/happybee: seb is all about positivity and saving the bees and the planet now. he doesn’t make sense as x.
-> u/op: that’s current seb. early 2010s seb was a different story.
u/understeerstan: yeah, seb was cocky, but he wasn’t that bad, was he?
u/f1stan: OP’s receipts are better than most of the nico allegations tbh, but no one wants to hear it.
-> u/nicosgirl: exactly like not everyone ignoring actual evidence because they hate nico more. i’m not saying it’s definitely seb, but we shouldn’t dismiss it just because he’s all sunshine and growth now.
u/laplegends: the seb theory makes more sense than nico, tbh. the whole paddock knew nico and lewis hated each other, but there’s barely any public drama between seb and yn, which feels… deliberate?
u/gridgossip: even if he was x, why would yn let him off the hook? she called out everyone else in the paddock.
-> u/dramadnf: maybe because he apologized and she forgave him? she’s always said the book wasn’t about revenge.
u/mclarenanti: the fact that she doesn’t mention him by name in the book is weird. i never noticed that before…
u/vettelfan: girl delete this. nico did that shit. just accept it.
u/dramalover: trying to convince the world that the guy trying to save the bees is x is a losing battle but i respect it.

The video is shakey, clearly taken on a phone, but the audio is clear enough. It’s a behind-the-scenes clip from a rain delay during a 2013 race. Drivers and engineers mill about in the background. YN is in her garage, leaning over her notes with her race engineer. The camera pans past her when a voice cuts through the noise, loud and smug.
Unseen Driver: “well, at least she’ll look good sliding off the track.”
The camera jerks slightly, as if the person filming wasn’t expecting the comment. The voice is unmistakable—it’s Sebastian Vettel.
YN’s head snaps up, but she doesn’t respond. Her engineer glances at her, clearly uncomfortable, and mutters something inaudible. Sebastian, walking past the garage, smirks briefly before disappearing from view.
The video then ends abruptly.

user5: “at least she’ll look good sliding off the track” is such a disgusting thing to say. no wonder she wrote the book.
user6: paul telling her to ‘ignore him’ hits so much harder now. she dealt with this crap for YEARS.
user7: yn handled that with so much grace. i’d have thrown a wrench at his big head.

7:03 PM: okay, we’re starting strong. yn and nico just arrived at the panel and… they’re FINE? like, actually smiling at each other. nico even pulled out her chair, and she laughed. is this a fever dream?
7:18 PM: fernando just said, “it’s always interesting when old secrets come to light.” direct eye contact with seb when he said it. i’m screaming.
8:25 PM: seb just got asked how he feels about yn’s memoir. he said, “i think it’s important she told her story, and i respect that. it’s not always easy to look back on who we were.” VERY diplomatic, but also… that feels pointed.
8:33 PM: lewis jumped in and defended yn when the host mentioned “paddock tensions.” he said, “yn had every right to speak her truth. we all know what she went through, even if some of us didn’t say it at the time.” 👀
8:41 PM: a fan question asked yn about her relationship with nico now. she smiled and said, “nico and i have had our ups and downs, but we’ve moved past them. he’s been very supportive since the book came out, and i appreciate that.” no mention of seb.
8:50 PM: someone asked seb if he ever felt threatened by yn during his career. he paused (awkwardly) and said, “no, i wouldn’t say threatened. but i think… i underestimated her, and that was my mistake.”
9:07 PM: nico just joked about being “grateful” he wasn’t the one yn wrote about in that chapter. yn laughed and said, “no, but you gave me plenty of other things to write about.” the AUDACITY. seb didn’t even crack a smile.
9:15 PM: fernando stirring the pot again: “the paddock always had a hard time accepting people who didn’t fit the mould. some of us didn’t handle that very well.” is anyone else sweating, or is it just me?
9:27 PM: someone asked yn if she feels like she’s fully moved on from the events she wrote about. she said, “i’ve moved on, yes, but that doesn’t mean i’ll forget. those experiences shaped me, for better or worse, and i think it’s important to acknowledge that.” seb looked like he wanted the ground to swallow him whole.
9:40 PM: okay, the host finally just asked SEB about the leaked clip. he took a deep breath and said, “i said things i regret, and i’ve apologized to yn privately. it’s not something i’m proud of, but i hope my actions now speak louder than my words did then.” yn nodded, but her face was unreadable.
9:52 PM: lewis jumped in AGAIN and said, “we’ve all made mistakes, but the most important thing is taking accountability. that’s what real respect looks like.”
10:05 PM: panel wrapping up, but the tension between seb and yn is THICK. they didn’t really interact directly, but you could feel the weight of it. nico, meanwhile, is cracking jokes and acting like he’s been vindicated.
seb basically confirmed he was x but in the most seb way possible: calm, regretful, and low-key heartbreaking. i mean we knew but still.
yn was unbothered and elegant as always, but you could tell she was holding back.
lewis had yn’s back the whole night.
fernando might as well have brought popcorn with the way he was instigating.
what a night. the grid is MESSY, and we love to see it.

f1shade: yn was spotted shopping in monaco today, looking as unbothered as ever, despite the whirlwind of drama that unfolded after last night’s legends of the grid showdown. with sebastian essentially confirming himself as x during the panel and max casually announcing he’s going to be a dad, the f1 fandom is barely holding it together.
but it seems yn isn’t done with the headlines just yet. reports are now circulating that she met with sebastian early this morning at the hotel where she’s staying. apparently, they booked a private meeting room and spent over an hour together “hashing things out.” sources say the atmosphere was “tense but calm,” and neither of them looked particularly pleased when they left.
the timing of the meeting has only added to the chaos. yn has always been private about her feelings towards sebastian, even in the memoir, where she never named him directly. meanwhile, seb’s brief apology during the panel last night left many feeling like there was still more to be said.
is this the closure they both needed, or just the start of another chapter in their complicated story?

user1: why is there always an implication that yn is fueling the drama? she literally wrote a memoir about HER life and now everyone’s acting like she’s stirring the pot.
→ user2: EXACTLY. she’s been silent for years, and the second she speaks her truth, it’s suddenly her fault everyone’s messy?
→ user3: the irony is seb fueled this drama by being x. yn just said what happened.
user4: yn shopping in monaco while the entire grid implodes is peak main character behaviour.
→ user5: she really said “not my circus, not my monkeys” and went to buy some new shoes.
user6: need another memoir, i know she has more stories.

user11: can’t believe seb was x. like, i love him, but… this is a lot to process.

→ user13: redemption arc or not, you can’t erase what he said. yn deserved better.
user14: why is no one talking about max becoming a dad in the middle of all this? this weekend is CHAOS.
→ user15: yn: “not my problem.” max: “definitely my problem.”
user16: yn’s face leaving that meeting was so unreadable. i need to know what went down.
→ user17: her poker face is legendary. seb probably left sweating.
user18: this has been the messiest week in f1 since abu dhabi 2021.

user4: imagine if she announces another book or like… a docuseries 👀
