Olivia's pov:

August 2024

It's now been six days since Charles and I became husband and wife, time has flown by since the wedding. We enjoyed what was left of his summer break as newlyweds and it was such a fantastic time, we'd just been home In Monaco the entire time with our kids enjoying every moment of it. But now we're back on track, back to the usual routine of traveling and racing.

We're now in the Netherlands for the Dutch Grand Prix, one of my favorites since it's my birth country, and because I have so many memories here on Zandvoort from back in the days with Max.

It was Friday today which means today is fp1 and fp2, so that's okay. Practice days are very chilled, and a good time to catch up with people around the paddock. - I know Isa and Samuel are also gonna be here today, so that's wonderful.

"Shall we post something from the wedding before leaving?" I asked as I was scrolling through my instagram while waiting for Charles to get ready. "Yeah, we can do that," Charles smiled and sat next to me. "Great, what about this photo? I really like this" I asked and showed him a picture of us from the wedding. "Me too.. I still can't get over how beautiful you were on our wedding day" he smiled and looked at the different pictures. "Aw stop it" I laughed. "I'm serious, love!" He said and laughed. "I know, you looked good yourself!" I smiled and so did he. "Thanks love, let's post this" he said.

I then posted the picture with a little caption. Fans had already gone crazy that I changed my instagram name from oliviaverstappen_ to olivia_leclerc! Then I can't even imagine when they see the picture, I love Charles's fans so much, they're the best fans in the world.

Pascale had Matheo and Elena for the entire weekend back home, since she thought we needed a weekend without kids, and she really wanted to have them for the weekend

Pascale had Matheo and Elena for the entire weekend back home, since she thought we needed a weekend without kids, and she really wanted to have them for the weekend. - So we arrived alone at the track. "Ready for all the questions, love?" Charles laughed as we stepped out of the car. "Yeah, not really," I laughed. People had already been liking and commenting a lot on our instagram post, and several media had posted a few articles about it. So obviously we were gonna get a bunch of questions now when we arrived.

Charles Pov:

It was such a good feeling being back to work, and back to racing after a wonderful summer break! I was walking into the paddock holding my wife's hand, it sounds surreal to say that, my wife! But she is and I love it.

The different photographers from different media took a bunch of pictures at us as we arrived, more than usual of course. We were almost at the Ferrari hospitality before a reporter came towards us. "Wanna be here or wait inside?" I asked Olivia. "I'll just be inside if it's okay?" She asked and I nodded. "Of course, I'll be there in a minute" I said and gave her a kiss on her cheek before she walked inside. - "Charles, can I have a quick word?" The woman asked. "Sure" I answered and got handed a microphone and a big camera in my face, but that was fine, I'm used to that.
