Who got the power?(English Version)-A Charles Leclerc Story

The interview and the appointment

When I get to the interview room I only see my brother Seb, the local idol Daniel, his former teammate Max and Lewis, only Charles is missing and then we can start. I just hope this ends as soon as possible. with Charles, I've waited many years and now that we have a release I want it to be perfect.

We already had an appointment when we were racing the Gp3 and after that I realized that I was crushed by Leclerc and I had even decided to declare myself but then I discovered that he was engaged to Giada Gianni, one of his countrymen, I was very upset and I have to thank my brother if I managed to forget about it. After what Charles did I became a little cold towards him and my only goal was to win and make everyone understand who I was.

Finally the Monegasque arrives and the interviews begin.There are really a lot of questions for Lewis and Seb but being the only girl among 4 men they ask questions not very welcome from me, one in particular makes me upset and made me want of going away.
<A question for Victoria Vettel, you are the only girl here and, I think I speak for everyone, how do you feel?>
<How do I feel? Very well, I can't wait to get in the car and start shooting>
<Another question always for Victoria. How did you get into motorsport? With which son of the president of Formula 1 and later of Red Bull did you go to get a place in the most beloved sport in the world?>
Okey Vic tries to stay calm, do not insult him in front of everyone and especially not close to your brother.
<You know this question has happened so many times that by now I know how to answer and I must say that the answer is really very simple and obvious.I earned my place first in GP3 then in Formula2 and now in F1.Not because my sex is the opposite of yours I don't deserve to be here and not because I'm a woman doesn't mean that I don't know how to drive excellently I have shown it several times that I deserve to be in motor sports and I didn't enter this world because I slept with someone's child or because my brother is Sebastian Vettel I would think more about his wife if she has one and ask her if she hasn't slept with someone else, which is not it would surprise me.I am very keen to show that women should not be discriminated against because being of an inferior sex, they cannot run alongside males.This is discrimination and I do not accept it!And now I can also leave>

Having said that, I take off the microphone and leave. I hope they understand that I do not mess with me.

I just want to get away from this place.Every time I get angry or otherwise talk bad about me I get panic attacks, the air starts to be low and if I'm in a closed place the walls start to shrink. in the arms of my brother who whispers sweet words in my ear and strokes my hair. He is the only person who will be able to calm me and I am grateful to him.After a few moments the other pilots also leave the room and join us, immediately they start wondering if I'm okay but I don't answer because I'm still a little shaken and honestly I don't want to talk to anyone.
Charles, in the Ferrari hospitality, they make me drink a little and then my brother talks.
<Are you okay? Have you calmed down?>
<Yes I'm better, thanks Seb>
<Not mein engel*. You know that I will always be there for you and then you want to know something?>
<What?>
<I'm proud of you and the way you answered him, you made him understand that you are not messed with>
<Sebastian is right. I'm very proud of you chérie*. You know what you said it was really nice>
<Thanks Charles>
<I'm going to talk to Kimi,I'll leave you alone>

When Seb leaves, an awkward silence falls between us, it had never happened before.
<Vic if you don't feel like we can postpone and do tomorrow>
<No no I feel it, I need to distract myself and get away a little>
<Perfect, then shall we go?>

We get out of the motorhome and get into the car.Since we follow a very solid diet where too many sugars are not accepted, we take a drink from Starsburg and sit on a bench under a large tree and start talking
<So... excited for the weekend?>
<A little bit. It's my first year in Formula 1 and I want to show that I'm not here because I slept with someone but because I deserve it and you are excited?>
<Not much, that is, it is the beginning of a new season and I will run dressed in red but I am not stressed, I just want to give my best and make Jules and my father proud.>
<You really have a lot to prove, I'm happy for you. You are finally making your dream, which is everyone's dream, to race in a Ferrari.>
<Are you right who would not want to race in Ferrari? Everyone wants it but not many would be able to withstand the constant stress, a single mistake could ruin everything you have built and the fans would hate you>
<You shouldn't worry, don't listen to what people say about you. They just mean meanness.>
<You're right. Shall we go for a walk?>
<With much pleasure>

After an hour we return to the hotel and we each go to their own room.It's been a long day and the only thing I want to do is sleep.I had a great time today, it had been a long time since I felt so good.
