We land yesterday. I'm doing some cleaning in my house with some music. Today is a relaxing day cause tomorrow afternoon I'm going to Miami for my second race after my crash. My knee is hurting but I still can walk.
After cleaning everything up, I'm finishing my suitcase and start watching my series. After few minutes I fall asleep.
Wake up by the sunlight I feel my knee pain so hard. Why today!? I don't know if I could drive in. Miami GP. So I take my phone and call Christian.
📞 Yes!? Hey Christian! I won't drive this weekend? Wait why!? My knee hurts too much and I don't know if I could Oh okay.. Eum thank you to make me know
Christian didn't look very happy. I think I was his only hope. With all the difficulties I get up and go in the kitchen. I take a banana and my coffee. Glasses on, I turned on my tv and start to watch something. Focus on my series, my phone rings. It's my dad.
📞 Yepp?! YOURE NOT DRIVING?! Eum no. My knee hurts too much and i don't know if I will be able to take the plane and drive You just had to listen to the doctors! I KNOW DAD! And I didn't. It's my fault, I know! Just.. take care of your knee. I'm serious I will!
Arggh I hate when my dad is acting like this! I know I did something wrong! But I just miss a race is nothing!
*it's now 10 races after
It's been 3 months without racing and walking. Checo replaced me. I can see Redbull becoming stronger without me and it hurts. I was thinking about my life when I received a text from Christian.
Mr Horner Hi Eleanor. I just want to say that you lost your seat with Redbull. It was a pleasure to work with you but now it's time to let Perez his seat. ___________________________
How!? It's unfair! I just lost my seat just because I'm injured and Sergio deserves it! I thought I was good enough.. Christian lied..
Everyone knows about the news. That I lost my seat. You know my father! He thinks that Christian deserves to leave F1 and Lando thinks RedBull are just not for me. I'm too good for them. I appreciate their efforts but we can't do anything. I start to walk normally and my pain start to disappear. I still go to the Grand Prix as Lando's supportive girlfriend or as Toto Wolff's daughter.
September 8th 5 day before Singapore Grand Prix and Carlos isn't driving. He has arm injury after crashing in Monza. So Ferrari asked me to replace him and I accept. No way I'll stay without driving. I need to make RedBull regret.
I arrived yesterday to Singapore and stayed in my room. Charles came to see me. He wanted to see if I was good. We talked for a while and slept. Today it's free practice. I prepare myself and join Charles to eat. Arrived to the boy's table, I feel every boy sights on me.
- Love!!
Lando gets up and kiss me. I can see Max confuse.
- Why do you have Ferrari shirt? - Charles didn't tell you? - No!? - I'm replacing Carlos - For real!?!? It's amazing!!
Daniel, Oscar and Alex smiles, they're so happy for me but I know that Max doesn't. Max gets up and leaves.
- Excuse guys, I appreciate it but I think I need to speak with Max - Yeah umm go ahead
I smile to them and run to join Max.
- Max wait! - What do you want? Apologize!? - Uum.. Why are you so mad at me? - You left me for Ferrari!! You left Redbull El! - I didn't want to Max. Christian did! - Wait for real!? - He didn't tell you? - Christian told me you left because of your knee - Asshole!
Why would he lie to Max. At the same time, Christian and Checo pass in next to you. I make an eyes contact with Christian. He's trying to ignore me. Arggh and I thought he was the best director!!
After this nightmare I join my box and star to prepare myself for the free practice. I talk with my engineer and enter in the car. Ready! Time to shine.
I made some good time and come back to the box. I have the fourth best time on the grid. Charles runs at me and takes me in his arms.
- You we're so good!! - Thanks Charlie!
We talk about my time with my engineer and Fred. After a good talk I join Charles for some interviews. I was the one. Every journalists wants me.
The day is finally finished. I take a shower, brush my teeth and go on my phone.
