97's Bulls (complete)
Charles standing tall on his car, the wings stretched across his race suit shoulders, matching the ones under him in the car. In the background, a somber electronic beat pulses, tension building. A voice murmurs through the track — low, almost menacing: Red Bull gives you wings.
In what could only be described as a crisis of faith, Charles leaves Ferrari.

Bastards (on going)
♔ Article 10. Succession to the Throne, opened following death or abdication, takes place in the direct and legitimate descent of the reigning Prince, in order of primogeniture with male priority to the same degree of kinship.
"I never understood how you were able to race as a prince," Max noted, watching him intently."
"Because I’m a bastard,” Charles said simply, ignoring the way Max flinches at the word. "My father married my mother without the Sovereign's approval. For the purposes of succession, that made us illegitimate." He kept his voice perfectly flat and practised. "Later, my grandfather lobbied heavily to change the constitution. It was easy to sell a legal text that allowed us to rejoin the line if something terrible happened to my uncle. Especially if the new law strictly excluded adopted children from the throne."
Max stared at him, slowly putting the pieces together. "He would rather rewrite the constitution than have an adopted grandson in the palace."
Charles drained the rest of his amber liquid, setting the heavy glass down. "He ensured the Crown only ever falls to a very specific type of family."
