I was tagged in this a while back by @1337wtfomgbbq thank you <3
How many works do you have on AO3?
I have 92 works on Ao3! So quite a lot. A lot more if I hadn't lost all my motivation in the last couple years, haha. 
What’s your total AO3 word count?
397,497 but I have a bunch of unpublished stuff at the moment waiting to be published. 
What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
1) Vanilla Skies.
2) Naked Tears.
3) I Know You By the Flames Scattered Across Your Nose.
4) I’ve Seen the World.
5) I’ll Remember the Heat.
All of those fics above I now hate fml. I wrote them all when I was 13-14.
Do you respond to comments, why or why not?
I always respond too all comments! I love all of them. 
What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?
So I think the last chapter of Thirteen Years (my Alain/Nelson series) is the angstiest ending I have but I haven’t published it. I will put out the first chapter very shortly. Besides that I think the last installment of my Jacky Ickx series was the angstiest thing I have ever written. I still cry about that it was so depressing to write. I think another angsty ending was Your Bittersweet Love--the one where Esteban tries to confess his love to Pierre and finds out he’s with Charles.
Do you write crossovers? If so, what is the strangest one you’ve written?
Nope.
Have you ever received hate on a fic?
When I was younger I used to but I was writing on Wattpad at the time. Now I don’t, every is respectful on Ao3 :)
Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
I do write smut! But I don’t like to. I feel like it is not necessary for the type of works I am writing. The smut I put in my fics usually focuses on a deeper meaning or communicating a theme that is in fic. An example of this is literally every smut scene in Thirteen Years lol. I personally just don’t like writing smut, haha. If it’s meant to be pure smut I try and make it more implied than graphic.
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
I have had many stolen from me before! I used to get so upset when I was younger and now I don’t care. 
Have you ever co-written a fic before?
I haven’t! 
What’s your all-time favorite ship?
Such a hard question. I love Piarles, Simi, Proquet & Jacky/Ronnie the best of all <3
What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?
I’ll just name every racing fic that is a WIP or something I gave up on.
1) I have a fic called Enemies With Benefits that is Mika/Michael that is unfinished. I don’t know if I will return to this one. It is unpublished.
2) I wrote a fic in my Piarles series where Esteban and Pierre see each other at Jules’s funeral. I also have a fic that follow Esteban and Pierre becoming friends again after the funeral and also the downfall of their attempt to repair the friendship. The plot surrounds a voicemail. I think in the future I will return to this one. I have to finish it. This is also an unpublished fic.
3) I have a fic about the moment that Pierre fell in love with Charles for the first time. I think I will return to this one in the future. Another unpublished fic.
4) Lust (and nothing more)--I still get comments on this one. Sorry guys I am sorry I cut this smut fic one chapter short lol. I wrote the chapter on Alain/Nelson and then created my Alain/Nelson series so I lost all interest in writing anything other than Alain/Nelson. I will 99% not be writing the last chapter. This is a published fic that I just not planning on finishing due to lack of interest. Writing meaningless smut just doesn’t appeal to me :(
5) I have a Seb/Kimi pic that I have planned out. It is going to be a pretty long fic tracking their entire relationship. The only problem is that I never started writing it, I just have it planned out in full, haha. I will one day write it. The theme is about regret vs guilt. It was inspired by a very important conversation I had with someone in my life. 
6) I also have a Gerhard/Jean fic that is unpublished rn. I have the whole thing planned out I just haven’t written it yet. This will also be long. It will be a part of my Thirteen Years part II series. This is intended to be what came after the Jean/Nelson fic for Jean and Gerhard. It also has a lot of Gerhard/Ayrton in it.  
7) I have something called “Snow” in my WIP folder which is three paragraphs of a Seb/Kimi fic?? Prob will not finish this one cuz I have no idea what I was writing. 
8) I have a fic called The Light of Our Flame which is going to be the second to final installment of the Jacky series. I wrote a fic from Francois’s perspective, Jochen’s perspective, and now I have to write Ronnie’s perspective. It’s just so heartbreaking to me I can’t seem to finish it. I love them so much I’m dying. It’s unpublished.
9) I have a Bruno/Nico fic planned out. It is meant to take place after Ayrton’s death and center on how they fell in love as kids which grew into repressed feelings in adulthood. 
10) I have a Nelsinho/Nico Rosberg. It’s gonna be angst lol. It’s unpublished.
11) I have a pic planned which is about to be about all of the moments Nelson regrets not doing something different. It’s about to be him imagining what he could’ve changed in the past. It’s unpublished.
12) I have a Niki/James fic that is not published that is about them living together.
13) I have a fic called All That’s Ours is Gold which is a finished fic I have yet to publish. It is in my folder awaiting publication. I have a lot of stuff I have already written but can’t publish because I need Thirteen Years to finish first. This fic is about marriage. It’s Nelson/Alain. That’s all I am going to say. 
14) FINALLY LAST ONE. I saved best for last. I have a HUGE fic that is finished and ready to be published but I have to wait for Thirteen Years to finish. It is a fic on all of Nelson/Alain’s relationship from the perspective of Niki. It’s fdjkslafjsldf I love it. It provides a lot of insight. 
What are your writing strengths?
Show not tell. I feel as though I am able to convey a lot of meaning with simplicity. A lot of my writing is trying to comment on the complexity of relationships, human emotions, our minds, etc which is why I have a lot of angst in my work. I think my work is able to describe small things in a way that have big meaning. Under that umbrella is metaphors. I think I use metaphors to explain things better than saying it. 
What are your writing weaknesses?
Smut lol. I don’t like writing it so when I do I usually make it implied to focus attention elsewhere towards the larger themes I am attempting to convey. I also think sometimes I can get too wordy lol. 
What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?
I love to. I speak English, French, Spanish, Russian and Portuguese so I love inserting other languages. I think it is a great way to add dimensions to a character and makes it more realistic. 
What was the first fandom you wrote for?
FIRST?? It was South Park lol. I was 11-13 and then I started writing mostly historical fiction and f1. I am 19 now so I feel like a grandmother since I’ve been writing fanfiction for so long.
What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?
Noooo, this is so hard. I think the Jacky series. It has such a deep meaning to me and I think it’s some of my best work to this day. Next up is probably the Jean/Nelson fic, my Pierre/Danill fic, the last unpublished chapter of Thirteen Years or this long Seb/Lewis fic. I have a lot of favorites but Jacky series def takes the cake that one is rough.

I see a lot of people defending Mazepin and feeling sorry for him in this situation. „It’s not Russian people’s fault that Putin started a war.”
It absolutely isn’t. But… Nikita’s father is a Russian oligarch. He’s a disgustingly wealthy man with close ties to one Wladimir Putin and a lot of power. He’s in the very heart of the problem.
And before you tell me that he shouldn’t be punished for his father’s sins… think again. He never in any way renounced his privilege that was brought to him by Kremlin. His entire career is based on Papa Mazepin’s wealth, influence and connections, all going back to Kremlin and Putin. If he was willing to accept privileges that came with his ties to Russian leader, he has to accept consequences as well.
And maybe if he was at least a nice person, maybe then I would feel an ounce of sympathy towards him. But this is the guy who sexually assaulted a woman and posted video of it on instagram, tried to publically out someone and generally has proven to be a privileged asshole wherever he’s gone.
He also had a nerve to say that he believed we shouldn’t mix sport and politics. For fuck’s sake…
I really hope that sanctions will hit Mazepins and hit them hard. Cry me a river.

Max said they shouldn’t be racing in Russia but other than him, Fernando, Pierre and Seb I haven’t seen any responses from other drivers. I’m so sorry this is happening to you, are you able to stay somewhere safe or are most cities at risk right now??
I go to uni in the US but my family left Ukraine a week ago as did many due to impending invasion. It will be a long time before they or I can ever go home. It was good timing. A lot of friends and their families can’t leave because of congested roads and airports are shut down. Residential buildings are being caught in the cross fire and people are dying. Thanks for asking, I wish everyone luck during this time.

Correction: Max as well.
Drivers who have spoken out for Ukraine:
1. Seb
2. Pierre
3. Fernando
Three?? Where are the voices? Where are the reposts, the messages of support the recognition? Anything?

I wish you guys would go hard on drivers for not speaking out for Ukraine like you were after George Floyd… but all I’m hearing are crickets on both sides. It’s a war.
All I can say is thanks to Seb for his words of support and his choice to protest.
Cлава Україні, stay safe everyone during this time. And to my fellow Ukrainians… stay strong. 🇺🇦🕊

@pierregasly this series (and all side storys for that matter) it's beauty, it's grace and it will tear your heart out and fucking stomp it into the ground.
