He Can Win Any Race. She’s the One Person He Can’t Afford to Lose.
About
They grew up racing against each other in whatever they could find. Bicycles, go-karts, eventually professional karting. He became the driver. She discovered that her talent was on the other side of the pit wall. They've been inseparable for years. Everyone assumes they're together. They're not. At least, they haven't been. He's won everything. Multiple World Championships. Pole positions. Race wins. Records that people thought were impossible. But his current season is different. He's beginning to crack. A new teammate is challenging him. The team is divided over strategy. The media is questioning whether he's past his prime. And, for the first time in his career, he's making mistakes. The only person he trusts completely is her. Then the team makes a controversial decision: She is put in charge of his entire pit operation. Now their friendship becomes a professional relationship under a microscope. During races, she has to treat him like every other driver. She can’t protect him. She can't give him special treatment. And he has to obey her calls, even when he doesn't agree with them. That creates some fantastic moments.
