Have the most random off shot AU for my Girl Max/Maxiel fic that has somehow transformed into a Queen of the Netherlands Max Emelia Verstappen???
Still young carting champion, wins everything she can, but instead of becoming an F1 driver at 17 she becomes the Queen of a whole country after Jos abdicates because of governmental pressure because of his bad rep or something similar. She trades in greasy race tracks, crash helmets and go-carts for military titles and the Crown Jewels. Is forced to oversee governmental issues and public relations as an emotionally stunted teenage girl instead of race death defying cars across the world. She hates it but has never in her life done something half send.
The Netherlands love her of course, how could you not, and she is a legitimate figurehead of state that the people have literally seen grow up into a powerhouse of a woman.
She never goes to Red Bull, Daniel never leaves, he’s gets his championships and they meet in passing maybe at the Belgian GP a couple times cause she’s still car obsessed, before Zandvoort is reintroduced in 2021 and CEMENTED in that calendar. It’s not leaving the roster till she’s dead.
They meet properly and they are mutually obsessed. They do a couple Hot Laps but Max drives, breaking many speed limits and stressing the whole country out, before Daniel wins the race and kisses her hand when she present the trophy. Flirting with the literal Queen of Holland on live national television. Max flirts back. The internet losses their mind.
33 Max Verstapen still somehow makes its way into existence.
