Prompt: Five times Carlos almost said “I love you,” and one time he did.
“Thank you for including me,” Lando says with a kind of shy reverence that makes Carlos want to close his eyes and reach for him.
It’s simple and direct, as Lando so often is, and yet Carlos feels so many things that are less than simple.
Or, five times Carlos almost says I love you, and one time he does.

Or, they text stupid, sexy jokes all race weekend.

Prompt: lando and carlos meet when they both enter the first World Championship race at silverstone in 1950
Carlos is in the middle of pulling his racing gloves on when he turns to see the driver starting next to him. The guy—practically a kid—is the youngest person on the grid in a racing suit by a mile. He’s a bit shorter than himself, bright eyes and curls that are parted off to the side so that they’ll sit properly under the racing cap.
He’s striking, to say the least, and Carlos has a moment of awe-stopping wonderment. He glances down at the guy’s waist and sees the name Norris embroidered on his hip.
Or: The year is 1950, and Carlos and Lando are driving in the first official season of the FIA Formula One World Championship.

Prompt: older multiple wdc lando falls in love with his rookie teammate carlos sainz jr.
just like real life where one of them takes the other under his wings except mclaren was not a tractor. Think of current lando with 2015 naive toro rosso carlos! Carlos being the one with THE fan tweets!!
Do not want: bottom carlos.
Other than that everything is fine.
Lando didn't want a rookie for his new teammate, someone he would be expected to guide and mentor when he ought to be focusing on defending his title.
That is, until he meets Carlos. Not only is he ridiculously handsome, but he laughs at Lando's bad jokes, leans into every touch, and looks at him with stars in his eyes.
It's only a matter of time, really.

Prompt: They retire early and buy a house in Mallorca. Carlos makes espresso every morning. Lando builds Lego. They don’t miss racing. Not even a little.
K.C. Douglas’ neon pink helmet flies out of the Minivac garage like a giant gumball launched from a demented candy machine. Carlos knows it’s going to be a long evening.
Carlos is thirty, single, and wishes he’d gone into accounting, instead of being Minivac's social media manager.
...but he's about to meet a very special engineer.
