Hey! Hope you are doing well! For norstappen Lando has not been feeling well (he did not tell anyone) and it shows during a race, during interviews and such they mention how lando had not done well and when max sees the videos he tried to comfort lando :(
A/N: Lando would 100% do this but I think he'd tell reader and make sure she wouldn't tell anymore
"Lando, maybe you should rest this race." You whisper, seeing the worn-down expression, his eyes sunken and a little puffy and lips a little pursed as he was having trouble breath through his nose. "I can't, we've been doing so well, need to be there for the team." Lando grumbles, putting his head between his legs.
You make a noise of disagreement and bite your thumb, wanting to go get your other boyfriend Max, knowing one look at Lando and Max would storm right up to Zak and Andrea and tell them Lando will not drive. He wouldn't say, isn't, it's will not drive, and he would not take no for an answer.
"You aren't telling Max; I know what you're thinking. Don't do that to me," Lando wheezes before throwing himself into a fit of coughs. "Lando, please you're sick, don't drive." You beg through the phone, you wish you were there or else he wouldn't be driving. "I'm driving Y/n, I need too. I'll be fine, take some non-drowsy cold medication, eat something and jump in the car." He groans, setting down the phone and blowing his nose.
"You're so stubborn, just tell Max, promise me?" You ask, Lando groans and picks up the phone, "Okay, I'll tell him." You feel some relief hearing that as you know Max would be up in arms at his boyfriend being sick.
"Alright, I love you baby, please get some rest." Lando nods and kisses his hand and waves at you as he ends teh FaceTime and groans loudly wanting to just curl up into a ball and die. Lando hasn't felt this bad since Brazil '22 where he had food poison during his birthday.
Banging on his door has him sitting up and runs over and applies some concealer to give him some hint of color rather then looking pale. "Coming!" He yells and curses, sounding so congested and moves blowing his nose and takes a tentative sniff being able to feel some air pass his nose and he sighs. "Good enough,"
----------------------
"Lando? Everything okay?" Will asks through the coms as Lando curses, being passed by the Haas and dropping to P16. "Yes, just having trouble," Lando turns off his radio and tries hard to keep his eyes open, fighting with everything in him to finish this hell of a race.
To make it worse, they were in the desert and Lando was sweating like crazy. He couldn't figure out if it was from the heat or the fever coursing through his body. The rest of the race passes in a blur before Lando is pulling in a horrible P19.
Lando could feel everyone staring at him, his team rushing to his side as Lando pulls himself up and takes a second to get the world to stop spinning. "Lando? Are you okay?" One of the mechanics asks, but Lando waves him off and walks away, heading to his media manager.
Pulling off his stuff he drops down on a chair and places his head between his knees. "Lando? Lando?" Honestly Lando doesn't remember much after that.
------------------------------
"Max! Congratulations on winning the GP, we know you're not the biggest fan of media so we'll be quick. We know that you are having a fabulous race and Red Bull couldn't be prouder, so how does that feel?" Max smiles, it's always the same questions but really, he just wanted to know where Lando went.
Lando started P3, but he didn't see him when they pulled up to the podiums, instead Charles and Lewis were on the podium and Max still couldn't get anyone to tell him where Lando was.
"Um, yeah it was a lovely race, Red Bull is happy with where we are and to continue this season as strong as we started, and we will continue to do that. But I was really hoping for a fight with the McLaren of Lando but didn't get one. Where did he finish?" Max was smooth with it, to the other drivers they would've rolled their eyes and made fun of him for checking up on his boyfriend.
"Oh, Lando finished P19, something seemed wrong, even in his interviews," The person points over to a screen and Max freezes seeing how tired and defeated Lando looked. "Max?" Max whips his head around and smiles, acting like he wasn't internally panicking. "Sorry, I've got to go, thank you so much," Max waves and walks off, practically storming through the paddock and reaching McLaren not caring for the stares from the crew as he makes his way to Lando's driver room.
Shoving the door open he sees Jon placing a warmth cloth over Lando's nose and a cold one on his boyfriends forehead. "Max," Max just gives Jon and look and the older man nods his head and walks out leaving Max alone with Lando.
"You're sick," Max points out, which elicits a loud groan from Lando who doesn't even have the strength to talk. "Lando, you should've told me." Max whispers and sits down on the floor so he was eye level with Lando. Lando doesn't do anything but holds his hand out which Max happily takes. Raising his hand, he kisses Lando fingers and moves closer to where Lando puts his other hand in Max's hair.
"You're sick baby, you shouldn't have raced." Max begs and lies his head on Lando's stomach. "Needed too, race, shouldn't have. Did horrible." Lando sniffles, and Max coos, moving closer and pulls Lando into his arms. "It's okay, let's just focus on getting you better yeah?" Max asks, and Lando nods curling more into Max and sighs. "Y/n is going to be mad," He whispers which makes Max snort.
"Don't worry, I won't tell her you lied to me," Lando smiles and hides his face in Max's neck.

omg omg omg Japan gp was wild!!!! but the only thing I thought about the whole time was Oscar finding out Norstappen is real? like imagine he sees reader kissing Max congrats before the podium ceremony and he knows Max has been kinda rumored to have a gf but it's not his place to say anything or whatever but after podium and some after race meetings he sees exact same girl sneaking out of landos driversroom and as a friend and teammate he tries to warn lando but he is laughing and giggling and he is like "why don't u come over with your gf for lunch tomorrow?" and when he arrives, at max's apartment there is reader opening the door while lando and Max ar giggling, looking like they just made out
STOP😭wee oscar’s head is SPINNING
imagine him slowly trying to piece it together though because maybe he’s noticed wee signs of lando also having a girlfriend, but he doesn’t know who. and maybe it’s after singapore where he sees you both in a club and he kinda makes a wee connection, but doesn’t say anything because obviously lando will introduce you when yous are ready
but then he sees that moment with max and just assumes he got it wrong
and then he sees you with lando after the podium and his stomach drops. because he’s new to the f1 family and he doesn’t want to be the cause of drama (again) but like…he cares about lando and he wants lando to know
and just imagine this boy awkwardly trying to say he thinks you’re cheating on him
and just imagine him showing up to that dinner with lily (maybe he’s even early) but then he catches max and lando cuddling and he’s like :0
and you walk out of the kitchen smiling like, “yeah, sucks to be the third wheel in your own relationship, huh?” like just joking but it takes this poor boy like ten minutes to really process it all before he says anything my😭
i know we aren't kym fans around here, but just wondering if you saw this one —> https://twitter.com/Norrislandofans/status/1658241543612792832?s=20 because NORSTAPPEN

landoscar I don't think mclaren knew Milou was going to drive straight into lando's rear but okay...
mrsnorris I don't like y/n but this is a reach, milou fucked up lando's race.
hamilt44n can we talk about how happy max is whenever y/n is on the podium with him 😭
