The only thing Norris has achieved on merit this year is the feat of unifying the entire F1 community (although it was against himself), Team LH coming togther and cheering for Max, the Tifosi cheering for him and hoping he'd win the title, all fans of other teams hoping either Max or Oscar wins.
The way noone aside from his fan base is happy he won the championship and everyone else aside from a few Hamilton fans clowning him immediately after he won.

You had the world’s biggest stages in the palm of your hand and somehow still found time to obsess over aerodynamics.
It was supposed to be a break year.
With Jin, J-Hope, RM, SUGA, Jimin, V, and Jungkook all enlisted in the military, HYBE had insisted you take time for yourself. Travel, rest, write music. Not that anyone ever expected you to write a global summer hit about Formula 1.
But there it was—
"Ferrari (페라리)"
A synth-heavy, bass-dropping, borderline techno K-pop anthem with lyrics all about speed, chassis, turbo engines, red flags, and emotional heartbreak disguised as a racing metaphor. It charted #1 in 12 countries within 48 hours.
You didn’t even mean for it to blow up. You just missed the racetrack.
Your obsession with F1 wasn’t new. BTS fans already knew about it—there were compilation videos of you doing deep dives into carbon fiber strength on V-Lives and explaining the 2022 porpoising crisis on Weverse.
But when you were offered to perform "Ferrari" live at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza?
Yeah. That made it real.
The sun was setting over the paddock, golden rays kissing the tops of every team garage, the scent of fresh rubber and motor oil oddly comforting. You stood next to your performance tent near the Ferrari hospitality suite, still breathless from your soundcheck.
Someone cleared their throat.
You turned around to see Charles Leclerc.
"Hi," he smiled, hands in his fire suit pockets. "You’re Y/N, right? The one who sings about my car."
You grinned. "Only if you’re the one who drives like heartbreak."
He laughed, shoulders relaxing. "Touché. Can I say something slightly crazy?"
You tilted your head. "Go for it."
"I watched your MV four times. I was trying to figure out if you actually understood the ERS system or if it was just for the lyrics."
You blinked. "I built my own PC. I modded it with an F1 sim wheel. I’ve been watching telemetry since 2019."
He looked visibly impressed. "D'accord. That’s legit."
"Ask me anything."
Charles raised an eyebrow. "Okay, what’s the weight limit on a 2025 car, including the driver?"
"798 kilos. Unless you’re Lance and brought a baguette onboard."
Behind you, Lewis Hamilton burst out laughing. Apparently, he’d been listening in.
It didn’t take long for the rest of the drivers to find you.
Franco Colapinto was the first to ask for a selfie. "My sister is ARMY. She’s going to cry when she sees this."
Isack Hadjar tried to keep it cool. "So, you, uh, like the Red Bull aero this year?"
"Downforce balance is solid but the floor edge design might be too exposed," you replied casually.
He blinked. "Wait. How do you know that?"
Ollie Bearman came running, dragging Kimi Antonelli behind him. "I told you she knew! She predicted Ferrari’s tire strategy last week!"
You laughed, palms up. "What can I say? I study."
Logan Sargeant stared in awe. "Are you secretly an engineer disguised as a K-pop idol?"
"I mean, music and motorsport both require rhythm."
"Fair."
You’d barely made it to the performance stage before Esteban Ocon stopped you with a question about fuel flow limits. Lando Norris wanted to know what mic brand you used. Fernando Alonso asked for your thoughts on Honda’s engine revival.
The performance itself? Electric. You danced in a custom red racing suit-dress hybrid with Ferrari’s prancing horse stitched on your boots. Pyrotechnics flared behind you as you hit the high note in "Shift me into overdrive, love’s a redline I can’t survive".
Half the pit wall was filming.
After the performance, you found yourself on a bean bag in the McLaren motorhome, legs curled up under you as Oscar Piastri handed you a juice box. "You’re honestly one of us."
"An honorary driver?"
"More like a paddock gremlin. The best kind."
Kimi Antonelli flopped beside you. "If I ever forget the diff settings, I’m calling you."
You grinned. "My fee is one lap in the sim rig."
Carlos Sainz walked by and laughed. "She’s gonna take all our seats."
You had dinner in the Mercedes motorhome that night. Toto Wolff pulled up a chair across from you.
"So. BTS. F1. Hit songs. And you still managed to know the difference between toe angle and camber."
"My brain’s weird," you said with a shrug.
"Your brain is brilliant. You remind me of someone."
You tilted your head.
He smiled. "My daughter, before she started lecturing me on downforce at the age of eight."
You chuckled. "I memorized Ferrari’s engine layout before I could read."
You didn’t expect to become a regular in the paddock.
But weeks later, there you were: dropping by the simulator at Red Bull’s factory, FaceTiming George Russell to argue about tire deg, playing Mario Kart with Lance Stroll during a rain delay, sitting on a stack of tires next to Zhou Guanyu as he translated Chinese F1 slang for your next single.
They’d pulled you into their chaos.
And somehow, you fit perfectly.
Your next solo track?
It was called "Chicane".
Lewis smiled when he heard the demo. "You know, Y/N, you might just be the fastest pop star alive."
summary . . . You'd always been a Tifosi, supporting the prancing horse since you could comprehend words. However, when your boyfriend starts racing in blue, it's hard to adjust. And when you finally get to stay in the Williams garage, reality sets in
request . . . no!! (yes by eve so now SHUT UP and leave me alone smh (joke ilysm))
