This week we read and discussed Kat Ransom’s Lights Out and agreed it’s the perfect title for an F1 romance.

Other things we discussed (though we were remiss not to mention that the hero of this one was LITERALLY BORN IN A CAR) included:

• Whether an F/F F1 romance would be a Pitch-situation. (The F/F F1 romance with the woman driver that Kate couldn’t remember the name is Fast Lane.) 

• The classic F1 pit-stop above-shot.

• Lewis Hamilton’s physio Angela.

• Race-winning radio communications.

• Max “Vex” Verstappen’s park ferme fine vs. Inspector Seb.

• Max Verstappen comments on his €50,000 fine, “I hope they have a nice dinner and a lot of wine.”

• Brave Little Toaster is Disney, but the villain wasn’t a chair, it was a trash magnet, and same, honestly.

• Kate predicted/caused? Sebastian Vettel’s retirement. (He could use a haircut.)

• Have you seen Pierre Gasly’s neck recently?

• “We look like a bunch of wankers.” –Guenther Steiner

• Toto Wolff’s billionaire romance cover.

• If Logan is Mick Schumacher, Alexandr might be Kevin Magnussen.
