ANGELINA POV.: Hungary, the last race before the summer break.. Everything seemed to be going just fine, the cars felt great and had the pace to fight with Red Bulls, team spirits were very high...
But as always, something just HAD TO HAPPEN! Everything was just too perfect, especially after the tough race at Silverstone and crash with Max on the beginning of it. Angela and I had many doubts.. Both of us felt that something will go south, just couldn't put a finger on it...
Qualifying was great, Lewis and Valtteri managed to secure 1-2 positions for the start, Finn being just a little faster than Lew. I was really happy for them, but also concerned, as Bulls were just behind their backs, on 3rd and 4th positions. It was going to be tough, I could feel it...
-Penny for your thoughts?- the most loved and familiar voice brought me back to reality, as I sat down on his couch.
-It's nothing...- I gave him a small smile.
-Angel...- he sighed.
-Really. Focus on your race, don't worry about me...- I took his hands in mine and squeeze them lightly.
-You know you can tell me anything, right? You're my top priority...
-I know. And you're mine- my smile grew bigger at his words, and then I leaned in, to gave him a loving and chaste kiss.
-Love you Princess...
-Love you too Champ- we smiled to each other and then petted Roscoe for a bit. Then, we needed to go to his garage, for the race. To do that, we crossed paddock a bit, so all photographers were on us. We kindly gave them a wave and smiles, nevertheless going to our destination.
There, I sat at the back of the garage with headphones at my hands reach and let them work "their magic". Lewis and Angela took quick warm up and then my boyfriend talked with Bono and the mechanics for a bit, about the car. Rustling and buzzing was heard from everywhere, but I didn't mind. Actually, it made me feel at home...
Before we knew it, the race was about to start, so the last preparations were made.
-Sunshine...
-Hm?- I lifted my gaze from my phone and stood up, to face Lewis -It's time?
-Yeah- he agreed.
-Good luck Baby- I told him and kissed his lips softly -Be careful out there...
-I'll. Don't worry about it- he assured me, as we gave each other stron hug. Then, we kissed for the last time and then I let go of him to let him race. After his and Valtteri's cars left for the grid, I sat down again, with Angela at my side.
-Let's pray for the 1-2...
-Let's pray...- I agreed with her, and then we focused on the screens in front of us. Something in me told me that it won't be usuall, quiet race...

....
And my gut told me right, as huge accident happened in the turn 1. Valtteri spun and took with him other 5 cars, being Perez, Leclerc, Verstappen, Stroll, Norris and Riccardo. It looked bad, but fortunately nobody got hurt. That was good...
After the incident, Bottas joined me and Angela to cheer for Lewis. My boy needed to bring his A game to bring the team the result they needed... And I really hoped he will...
Finn felt really bad about what happened, and we understood that. While keeping up with Lewis's positions on track I tried to cheer up our friend. It was very unfortunate what happened. Just one small mistake and what costs...?!
The race was really tough. Eventually, only 13 drivers completed it and it resulted in double points for Williams. It was very good result for them, and George finally managed to score points, so it was nice. For whole race Lewis was in top 6, and tried very hard to get back to top 3. Esteban was leading the race for most of the time with Sebastian on his heels, right behind him. For most of the race too, Fernando was in 3rd place, with Carlos behind him. But Lewis managed to overtake both of them and ended up in P3. It was very nice result, so everyone in the garage cheered him on.
-He did it!- I shouted with big smile.
-He did!- Angela agreed with me and gave a huge hug, which I returned.
We quickly went to Parc Feme, to greet them. I stayed happily with them, for whole the time. It watched Lewis pulled in for P3 and jumped out of the car. I could clearly see how tired he was. First, he hugged and fist bumped the mechanics and all the guys and then gave Angela big hug. Then, he stood in front of me, with tired eyes.
-Och Love! I'm SO proud! You did everything you could!- I told him and big hug followed.
-Thanks baby....- he mumbled, very tired.
-Let's give a little straight more, hm? Just get that trophy and answer few questions. Then we'll get back to the hotel and rest, ok?- I suggested and looked him in the eye.
-Love you- he said and then left right to the trophy ceremony. But up there... Something not felt right...
-Is he OK?- I whispered to Angela.
-I suppose...? But something is wrong, I can feel it..- Angela agreed with me, with concerned look on her face. I didn't say anything more, my gaze never left Lewis.
Ceremony was long as always, but I wished that it ended. I clearly saw that he's really tired and wished that he could just get back to the hotel with me.... But problems didn't end there...
After the interviews all the teams went back to theirs hospitalities for team briefing. I went with them and stayed by his side. We're together for 2 and a half years now, so they trust me with this. Besides, Lewis needed me there... I held his hand in mine and gave it a squeeze from time to time, half listening to what all of them said and discussed. It was almost 45 minutes, after which all the team called it a day. But when we stood up from the table, Lewis halted forward, right to me.
-Lew!- I shouted and managed to hold him. His eyes were almost closed and glossy -What's going on?
-I feel... Dizzy- he mumbled, not able to hold himself upright.
-Sit down- I pushed him on the chair, lot letting my eyes from him -How long?
-Podium.. I think...- he sighed, and made me really worried.
-Drink...- Bono said and gave him a glass of cold water.
Soon after he drank it all, Angela came back with medic from the medical center. Everyone were really worried for him. Even Valtteri and Toto were concerned... I sat next to him and held his hand in mine, as Doctor checked on Lewis. He looked a little pale and tired, not so much dizzy anymore... As I hoped...
The doctor said that it's nothing major and Lewis just needs to rest. We all thanked him and asked for advice.
-Long sleep should be enough...
Doctor's farawell met with the news from the FIA. Seb was disqualified from the race, which meant that Lewis is promoted to second and Carlos Sainz to 3rd. It was nice news, but nobody was in the mood to celebrate.
We took off to the hotel and ordered food to our room. I never actually left his side, constantly worried. He was more himself now, but still extremely tired and sick...
-I'm sorry Honey... We should celebrate now..- he mumbled, when we laid down on the bed.
-Don't be! You're my champion and no matter what is going on, I'll support you! And your health is prioryty for me! You should rest now!- I told him honestly with gentle smile -I love you Lew. Never doubt that!
-I love you too Princess. You'll never know how much...- he whispered and pulled me in, for a light kiss and bear hug.
-If you feel worse, wake me up, ok?
-OK Love- he agreed and kissed my forehead.
-Let's go to sleep now, shall we?- Lewis only hummed in response and we laid under the covers. I snuggled to his side and not long after that we both fell asleep. We really needed it... Especially after today...
THE END

Information about Lewis being dizzy after the race really concerns me... I hope he'd be OK... And I'm happy for his p3. Everybody can see now that it's not "just a car"...
When it comes to what Valtteri did, everything just boils in me... He misjudged the breaking point and took 6 cars with him, out of the race! Which top driver does that!?
I know it's just a mistake and he didn't mean it, but it's still hard...
And that bullshit of reason why the FIA took Seb's podium away is also frustrating! How could they?! It's not fair!
Nevertheless, let's forget about Hungary and count down the days to next race after the break!
I hope you enjoy this one...
Have a nice day! / Goodnight!
