[F1] How to Become the Next Racing God After Starting from the Start

[I'm terrible at coming up with titles, go easy on me] [Launching June 1: “[Football] The German Team's New Emperor”] Blurb: In 2025, the film F1: The Movie swept the globe. A friend dragged Elliott along to see it, and he was instantly hooked, watching it hundreds of times. After that, Elliott had only one thought: [That is so damn cool. I want to drive in F1 too!] Reality, however, gave him a brutal beating. Former F1 World Champion Nico Rosberg told him, “You’re 26. You’ve missed your chance, kid. Maybe in your next life.” Elliott went home and cried all night. Then he opened his eyes and was reborn in 2009! He was ten years old that year. There was still time for everything... wasn’t there? * Reborn, Elliott still had to face a whole lot of skepticism. He had no connections, no funding, no technical support, and not even any knowledge of racing... To top it off, he didn’t get into racing until he was ten. How could a kid like that possibly become an F1 driver? Ignoring everyone’s disdainful looks, Elliott first won every karting championship under CIK-FIA. He then entered the inaugural Italian F4 Championship, claimed four race victories, and leaped straight up to become a GP2 driver. In 2016, he finally got his F1 seat. No one dared write him off anymore. It took Elliott ten years to go from “track torpedo” to “World Champion.” * Elliott had two champion mentors, but his driving style never changed. Just like his personality, it was bold, bright, and freewheeling. The fans worshipped and adored him; his rivals envied and resented him. The FIA could do nothing about him. Looking back on his career, Elliott had sent plenty of drivers into the wall before becoming a champion. In revenge, they sent him into a wall too. Only it was the wall of his bedroom :) Note: 1. The author is new to the sport and is looking up the rules as they go, so please be gentle. 2. At heart, this is a wish-fulfillment story. 3. Plot-driven, with a very messy romance. Ship whoever you like. 4. For Leclerc. 5. Football is his older brother’s storyline, and his brother appears a lot. 6. No System, but his talent stat is cranked way up. 7. Elliott has two mentors, one named Michael Schumacher and the other Sonny Hayes ;) 8. Lots of references, spanning a wide range of topics. Theme: People should have dreams!
