Hi guys, another update for you. Now the story gets really interesting ;) I would love to hear what you think!

By the way, I hope you all love the new Ferrari is much as I do after the reveal this morning. I can't wait for the new season to start! Forza Seb :D

She hadn't slept well, as she had kept waking up with nightmares. For some reason Seb and David had been the same person and whenever she thought she was talking to Seb he just laughed and turned back to David, making her run away in fear. She had been covered in sweat when she woke up and it had taken a few minutes to realise it was only a dream. All in all it had resulted in her being very tired and she had been yawning every few minutes during her last meeting, to Rocky's annoyance. She had found time to read through the last papers as Seb had woken her up quite early as he had felt guilty for keeping her from it the night before. She smiled when she thought about how he had been jumping on her bed to wake her, because it was a typical Seb thing to do. He had been so excited for the race already and he had infected her with his happiness. So in the end she had been able to prepare for today and the adrenaline rushing through her body was starting to wake her up considerably.

When she checked her phone she saw there was a message from Tom.

Tom - Wish Seb good luck for the race!

She grinned as she read the message of her best friend, he had been sending her these texts at the start of every session this weekend. When she checked the screens in the garage she could see the drivers were coming back from the drivers parade and were making their way back to their garages. So she decided to go check on Seb as he always stayed in his room in the back before the pit lane opened. He wasn't there yet, so she flopped down on the sofa and made sure her feet were hanging over the edge.

'Is this pay back for me having your room key?' Seb laughed when he walked through the door and spotted Keira on his sofa.

'It's the only comfortable place in the entire garage, so I thought you could share,' she grinned and she put her hands behind her head.

'Don't you have work to do?' he asked as he picked up one of the towels to wipe his face, the temperatures were still very high although it was now practically evening.

'Nope, finished for now. Have to be back when you get into your car, so it depends on you,' she moved her legs so there would be some space for him to sit down.

'It'll be a long race, it always goes to two hours, so I'll be glad when it's over,' he sighed as he sipped from a bottle of water. 'Also because it's warm and long I have to drink these ridiculous amounts of water, it feels like my bladder is going to burst,' he pulled a painful face.

'You know they have a solution for that?' she raised her eyebrows in amusement.

'What?' he looked confused.

'Peeing,' she said with a dead serious face.

He gasped and rolled his eyes. 'I could have expected that, thanks Captain Obvious,' he said as he stood up. 'I'll ask Christian to give you a pay rise, I mean this is some high tech ground breaking stuff,' and with that he left the room to empty his bladder.

She used the time to send some of the pictures she had taken to Tom and Abby and for Tom she made a video showing the room and what was inside. She had promised him to keep him up to date with everything and he needed her for bragging rights he could use when he was at work. She smiled, as she knew Tom would score very well with a video of Seb's room and she knew Seb wouldn't mind.

'Are you selling my secrets to Ferrari?' Seb asked when he noticed Keira filming the room when he came back.

'Yes, they made a very generous offer. I already faxed all your telemetry and next on my list was taking pictures of your car,' she answered while continuing to film.
