lando had been struggling over this triple header. he felt like he lacked confidence and the mental strength. he couldn’t wait for a week break and neither could you.
you had been with him for every single race of the triple header, you also had spent a lot of time studying at track due to this as you were still in uni.
but this week, he felt like he was gaining confidence. last night, he told you he was excited to get in the car and show his best.
lando crashed out in q3, nothing serious thank god. however when he came back from the media pen, he seemed annoyed and just frustrated. he looked like he wanted to cry and you knew how he was struggling mentally. you two had chatted a lot over the past month about dealing with his mental health and you knew you were gonna be chatting about it tonight.
when he came back into the mclaren hospitality, you two made your way back into his driver’s room so he could get out his race suit.
