8th May 2022 - Miami
"Giuliaaaa hurry up you will be late" my assistant says from the other side of the room
"wait a second" i say grabbing my bag and the f1 pass from my hotel bed
we go down the elevator and into the car
"are you excited to go to the race" she asks
"very i haven't gone in a few years and the last time i went was with my father" i say fixing my dress in the car
"now remember you are here to represent the company as a sponsor you its business not enjoyment" she says
"you think i haven't heard this from my father a thousand times already i know he said i need to take a picture with the drivers or something to show it's a family business or something" i say
"yes a photo will be sufficient remember you represent your whole family today" she says
"yes my father that is always too busy for me his 3rd wife and my 5 siblings from different mothers, i know who i represent amy" i say
My father Emilio Rossi is the owner of a big investment company it's been in the family for a lot of years and with my dad being the oldest brother he inherited the company when my grandfather died. When i was 9 my parents divorced and i lived with my dad until i was 10 then he sent me to boarding school in Switzerland, i hated it i felt trapped i had difficulties making friends since people just though i was rich and spoiled i only ever had Elizabeth my best friend she's the one that got me through everything even when my father refused to talk to me. When i told him i wanted to become a model he was supportive and did everything in his power to help me grow my career hence the nepo baby title. My father has always been heavily involved with F1 and Ferrari since his company owns a big part of the team so growing up i always attended races with him and got to meet the drivers. When i was 17 i was in the beginning of my last year of school and i fell pregnant i didn't know what to do i knew my father would be so mad i wasn't allowed to date and i always knew my fate would be an arranged marriage to some rich italian businessman. As expected my father was furious he was disappointed mostly but he told me i was not allowed to have male friends anymore and when i would turn 25 he would marry me off to someone and if i only dared to have a male friend i would have to marry him weather i liked it or not. Since then i've had assistants follow me around constantly and practically no space to breath
my phone rang in my hand
"papà cosa c'è" i say as i pick up the call (dad what do you need)
"comportati bene giulia ricordati il nome che porti in giro ha un valore" he says (behave we giulia remember the name you carry around has a value)
"lo so papà ti voglio bene ciao" i say hanging up (i know dad i love you bye)
the car stops in front of the paddock gates and i step out and get mobbed by paparazzi thank gosh i had people to guide me in. I get walked to the Ferrari hospitality and brought to a small living room
"Ms Rossi we are delighted to have you here" a tall lady with red hair says
"Its a pleasure to be bak after many years" i say
"We will have you take a few pictures with Charles and Carlos before they have the race and then you are welcome to watch the race from the garage" she says
"sounds good" my assistant says
"follow me" the lady says "now the boys are usually used to your father coming to represent the company so excuse me if they don't behave well they don't usually react well to models and influencers coming into the garage" she says as we walk into the garage
