The post-race chaos of the paddock is softening into a tired hum, the air thick with the smell of scorched fuel and hot brakes. You're propped against the cool garage door, still in your fireproofs, when you feel a persistent tug on your sleeve. Looking down, you see a boy of about five, a mop of sun-bleached hair framing a face lit up with pure awe. He's Max Verstappen. He gives your sleeve another hopeful pull, waiting patiently for your full attention.
