Drivers Rebecca Speed Rank/Archetype: Rookie/Skirmisher Tripwire: @officialbexbrw Gender: Female (she/they) Age: 37 Birthdate: April 20th Height: 5’ ft 10” in (177 cm) Birthplace: Berkington, Herefordshire, England Interests: Racing, Video games, Supernatural phenomena SPOILER: Click to show {Spoiler}The family would have preferred to see Rebecca Speed becoming a doctor or a lawyer, but plans changed when she left university to attempt Club GT races in the Midlands. From there, not only she obtained great results, but also the nickname "Reckless Bex" due to her fiery aggressivity on the track. Offered a seat in the team of her older brother Bobster, she took her first win in Monaco after a heart-stopping race where she claimed she was being "possessed by the spirit of a deceased driver"... Her driving style has always kept flamboyant and pugnacious even in her successive adventures to the previous experience with Bobster Racing and we are sure that "Reckless Bex" is gonna give her fans a show in this new upcoming season. Alister Dos Santos Rank/Archetype: Rookie/Light Footed Tripwire: @rápido_alister Gender: Male (he/him) Age: 24 Birthdate: July 13th Height: 5’ ft11” in (180 cm) Birthplace: Jabaquara, São Paulo, Brazil Interests: Racing, Wakeboarding, Playing guitar SPOILER: Click to show {Spoiler}Belonging to the "Nova Onda Paulista" of Brazilian racing drivers, Alister Dos Santos is the polar opposite of Rebecca Speed; behind his cheerful and friendly personality in fact, there's a highly determined, calculating and strategically proficient driver - all characteristics he's been nurturing since his debut in racing at the age of 13, during the Panbrasilera Karting Series, where he had more than a chance to show his worth. In the transition from small nimble open-wheel chassis to bigger touring cars in the UK, he also showed an extreme attachment and spirit of participation to the mechanical development of the car, something extremely not to underestimate and that makes him an invaluable acquisition for Bobster Racing Systems for this season. Luka Ogami Rank/Archetype: Rookie/Aggressor Tripwire: @luka_o Gender: Female (they/them) Age: 23 Birthdate: January 11th Height: 5’ ft 6” in (173 cm) Birthplace: Matsubara, Osaka Prefecture, Japan Interests: Kendo, Sports Cars, Reading, Coding SPOILER: Click to show {Spoiler}Luka Ogami entered Bobster Racing as third driver as part of a "Package" imposed by one of the sponsors, Neucom Inc. Usually very quiet, she always speaks in short sentences, fact for which she got her the unsavory nickname "2B" from Rebecca. Despite all this, she has an extensive experience as hill climb time attack driver in Japan, where she raced regularly in a specially modified AE86 Trueno all by herself. Hardworking on the vehicle, ruthless on the track even more than Rebecca, fact that got her to dislike her even more - especially when she's called to fill in after Rebecca's PR incident in London. Unfortunately, her lackluster performance and toxic behavior will lead her to be released from the team right immediately after her stint in Hokkaido. Palmira Sanmarino Rank/Archetype: Rookie/Pacesetter Tripwire: @solo_wheel_pixie Gender: Female (she/her) Age: 26 Birthdate: December 18th Height: 5’ ft 9” in (175 cm) Birthplace: Firenze, Italy Interests: MMA, Basketball, Sketching SPOILER: Click to show {Spoiler}Palmira Sanmarino has dedicated herself to various sports including MMA, Basketball, Karate and Kickboxing, before starting her racing career mainly in the minor Italian series circuit. She gained the fame of determined hot lapper in sectors like karts and the Rally Trofeo Sardegna. She has been approached by Bobster Racing Systems during a support race at Fuji Motor Speedway, where according to Lisa shown "determination, strength, consistency and a good dose of wittiness which is always a welcomed quality at Bobster Racing". Staff Bobster Speed - Team Owner and Manager Tripwire: @thebobster Gender: Male (him/they) Age: 48 Birthdate: February 24th Height: 5’ ft 10” in (176 cm) Birthplace: Berkington, Herefordshire, England Interests: Sport Cars, Collecting vinyl records, Karate SPOILER: Click to show {Spoiler}The Formula GP fans of the '90s will remember Bobster Speed for being a talented and determined driver as much as being an explosive and hot-headed individual out of the car. All characteristics he carried over the years, even tho maybe he may have smoothed some edges as he became the team manager for this new Bobster Racing incarnation. A "loud lad", like his friends would define him, but ready to encourage and motivate the members of his team. Daniele Gilbert - Chief Mechanic Tripwire: @danigil_BRS Gender: Male (he/him) Age: 33 Birthdate: November 7th Height: 5’ ft 6” in (171 cm) Birthplace: Grottaferrata, Rome, Italy Interests: Racing, Cooking, Cycling SPOILER: Click to show {Spoiler}With a name like "Gilbert" (and being the nephew of the infamous ace driver with the same surname), the pressure is high for this talented Italian mechanic, but just in line with his family lineage, he's more than ready to take on the challenge and work harder than ever to provide his racing drivers with the ultimate racing machine. After failing a shootout for a racing driver some years ago, he decided to dedicate himself completely to the technological and mechanical side of things, joining Bobster Racing Systems after contributing actively in taking the Griphon Rally Team to the victory for two seasons. Alice Harvey - PR Coordinator Tripwire: @alicebrs Gender: Nonbinary (they/them) Age: 32 Birthdate: November 22nd Height: 5’ ft 10” in (179 cm) Birthplace: Kingston Upon Hull, Yorkshire, England Interests: Beat'em up videogames, Sports cars, Social Media SPOILER: Click to show {Spoiler}Before joining Bobster Racing Systems, Alice Harvey was a Social Media Coordinator for the popular MMORPG "Ephimeral Phantasia Online 2" and it was known for her witty yet effective marketing strategy that brought the number of players worldwide close to 4 million at the end of 2020. But don't think is also because of Rebecca's infatuation with the game that she joined BRS, all the opposite; Alice has always been fascinated with Sports Car Racing and saw this as an opportunity to bring her experience from the virtual world to the real one. Will her social skills succeed in rallying new fans for Bobster Racing for this new adventure? Lisa Garnier - Chief Strategist Tripwire: @lgarnier_Official Gender: Female (she/her) Age: 36 Birthdate: May 27th Height: 5’ ft 9” in (175 cm) Birthplace: Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA Interests: Sports Cars, Modeling, DJing SPOILER: Click to show {Spoiler}Rebecca's former best enemy then turned teammate in 1994 Formula season. She went on to win her first and only Formula driver title in 1995, just before Bobster Racing folded. Afterwards, she returned to the US and her first love: Stock Car, a discipline she absolutely dominated for 4 times, making her number 46 synonymous of victory. She came back to Bobster Racing as chief strategist after catching wind the first race in Bathurst was a bust. A voluptuous and seductive, yet expert and hard working strategist, knows the tracks in and out, and is ready to give useful tips to everyone on how to take the best approach. Also, always ready to make Tripwire implode. Marie McLaren - Engineer Intern Tripwire: @marie_765 Gender: Female (she/her) Age: 25 Birthdate: July 1st Height: 5’ ft 1” in (157 cm) Birthplace: Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Interests: Hip-Hop Dancing, Anime, Racing SPOILER: Click to show {Spoiler}Shy and reserved but also a very determined engineer graduate, Marie is fresh off Sydney University when she writes an email to Bobster Racing asking for any intern programs. Despite not having a program at all, the team decided to take her on for a paid internship working alongside Daniele and Lisa. Marie has been a fan of Bobster Racing mainly because of the figure of Rebecca, which is her family's favourite Formula driver in the '90s and she's more than happy to contribute to the success of this team as well as getting her feet wet in the GT racing world.

robkta • Member Posts: 90 Likes: 124	Post by robkta on Feb 28, 2022 13:26:53 GMT -5 *Sepang Shuffle - February 28th, 5AM* “A war council?” asked Alister “Don’t worry about it mate, is just Bobbo that loves to call briefings this way” - Rebecca Speed was walking along the corridor with her hand behind her head “Especially when is this early in the morning” “Raios, is it really needed like… I was trying to get some beauty sleep you know…” the Brazilian let out a soundly yawn. To be the most energetic of the bunch, that morning was a bit tough to gather his bearings. “Tell me about it” Scoffed Rebecca “Still is nowhere as bad as the Formula days, eh. Sometimes we wouldn’t even go to sleep at all like… staying up for 36-48 hours just having to sort out a strategy. But yeah, agreeing with ya… this bloody heat doesn’t even help in the slightest - hey Lisa is up! Oi! Lass!” Lisa Garnier didn’t look sleepy at all, she always had that halo of natural beauty surrounding her, possibly inherited it from her modeling hobby after racing. After seeing the pair approaching, she just greeted them both with a warm smile “Oh, good morning both. Hope you were able to rest well~”. “BOM DIA MEA ADORADA!” Alister woke up from his slumber and exploded with all his energy as usual. “Ah shite, here we go with that heart eyes routine again…” Rebecca rolled her eyes up while Alister quickly perked up in front of her attractive figure and turned back to his usual energetic self: “Absolutely! I never felt so ready to start a day like I am right-” “Psst. Alister, mate, eyes up there ay?” “Sure sure, I was saying I’m pretty sure that today’s briefing-” “Oi mate, seriously, eyes up there” “Yes, I got it - it's gotta be super important to have a strategy ready for the race this weekend and I am sure you worked very hard on it. Believe me nobody is more grateful for your hard work than-OW!OW!OW!BECCA POR FAVOR! CHEGA CHEGAA!!” Rebecca pulled Alister by the ear and laughing awkwardly quickly pulled him aside “Sorry, lass I just need to speak with my teammate eye to eye for a sec” Lisa just limited herself to a timid laugh. “Mate, seriously. Stop. Looking. At her bloody. Tits. Okay?!” “Butbutbut THEY’RE THERE! I can’t help it-” “I don’t want to fucking hear that! You’re embarrassing me and her both! Seriously you need to keep that in check! IS LIKE YOU ARE GOING THROUGH A SECOND PUBERTY OR SOMETHING MATE!” “Listen, I value honesty, okay? If a girl is pretty I’d much rather be honest about it” The reply made Rebecca raise an eyebrow “And I guess that’s why we were risking a PR incident when you wanted to ask out Marisa di Vallelunga?” “I-I-I Just wanted to make friends, that’s all-” after yet another excuse, Rebecca pulled Alister’s ear again and thundered: “Listen up! I’m gonna just say this once - CONTAIN YOURSELF, AY? Otherwise they’ll have to call ya Danganfuckinrompa because trust me, YOU HAVE NEVER FELT TRUE DESPAIR UNTIL I SLAPPED YOUR BLOODY FACE!” In that precise moment, a loud whistle, like a shepherd recalling his sheepdog, broke the conversation: from the office on the other side of the hallway, it was Bobster Speed’s voice, prompting everyone to come through: “Oi! Are you gonna make me wait more or can we bloody start? We don’t have all the time in the universe ya know!” “Yes, we know, we are coming” both droned in unison. The mobile briefing office at Bobster Racing Systems, despite the fact it was for an Amateur team, was pretty advanced all things considered - Bobster Speed, the team manager, spent enough to provide all the team with a space where the latest technology could be used by everyone in order to plan and draft up the best strategy for each race. Inside the room, Bobster himself and Daniele Gilbert, the chief mechanic, were already there. Daniele in particular, always with a cigarette in his mouth, and never took off his mechanic suit once; and in all honesty, it smelled a bit like old oil. “Mate… seriously? Inside here as well?” groaned Bobster “You don’t have respect for where you are” “Ehhh is just a routine, if I don’t smoke I can’t concentrate at all…” Bobster facepalmed: “Have you considered trying to eat a popsicle instead? So that you don’t look like you’re about to set everything on fire? And for fuck sake mate, have a shower at least, we have something called spare uniforms ya know!” “But this is my lucky one! We won in Sydney while I was wearing this, so that means it will happen again - capito?” As Bobster rolled his eyes up, the rest of the team started to roll in; Rebecca and Alister were the first ones. “Top of Morning! What took you so long?” Rebecca pulled Alister in “Sorry Bobbo, someone here was ‘going through changes’ and I needed to keep him in check a bit” Bobster weakly laughed “Ah, as usual I guess - good morning, Mister Dos Santos. Slept well? Because you seem ready to doze off mate I need you concentrated” “Concentrated, chefe, I know I know - yawn” “Come on, after this I’m buying y’all a coffee, promised!” blared Bobster. “If is not an espresso, vaffanculo!” thundered Daniele from the distance. “We’re in the middle of the jungle mate, you get what you get!” As soon as Bobster said that, Alice Harvie, PR Representative, entered the office as well - oddly enough the one with the most energy that morning “Hiya boss!” “Hello Alice, good to see someone with actual energy here!” Last to arrive, was Lisa, that closed the door behind her, winking at Bobster, holding a clipboard in her arm close to her chest “Morning, Bobster~ Good to see you slept well~” Bobster groaned: sigh “Mornin’ Lisa…. Ok I think everyone is here…” Everybody occupied their seats and Bobster promptly closed the door behind him and turned the lights down so the big monitor behind him presenting the map of Sepang was clearly visible. “Aight then. Morning everyone. I know is pretty early but we really need to hit the ground running for the new race. First of all, let me congratulate once again to every one of you for the terrific job we did in Sydney. Bex, Alister, ya both put on a real show for everyone and proved that we still got it!” Everyone applauded as both Rebecca and Alister couldn’t help but smile with absolute satisfaction. “So we are back on the map; we can definitely aspire to more than just points, which basically means - FAILURE IS NO LONGER AN OPTION” Everyone eyes widened up at those words. Alister was the only voice heard after raising his hand: “Uh, chefe sorry… but… “failure”? Isn’t that a bit drastic?” “Oi let’s not get all scared ay? What I meant is, we are in a position where the pressure is high therefore we need to deliver an appropriate performance. But we cannot absolutely repeat what happened in Bathurst. And retiring well… let’s not make that happen ok?” Rebecca in hearing the word “Bathurst” put her head down in shame and just muttered: “Fuckin’ Bathurst mate…” thinking about the horrid feeling of concluding the debut race at the very last place. Alister and Alice sensed that discomfort and just tried to cheer her up: “Hey, don’t let it get to you ok? Is passed.” Smiled Alister “We did a good job in Sydney and we will keep on doing so, is what matters”. Rebecca nodded in reply. As Bobster witnessed the scene, thought maybe the hard line wasn’t the right answer. “Right, so… Lisa, if you don’t mind?” “Sure thing, Bobster” Lisa came up in front of the big screen; her beauty alone was enough to capture everyone’s attention. But her extensive knowledge of racing tracks was a good reason for the team to call her back in this new role after all this time. This time, more than a seductive model, she looked more like a seductive teacher: “So, Sepang. As far as I am aware, nobody else but me has ever raced here in the past right?” Everybody shook their heads to say “nope” - “Right… in Sydney we were able to get away with a ‘nice and easy’ kind of strategy, mainly because it is a fairly short track and also traffic and pit stop chaos played in our favor. But here, we need to push as hard as we can. As you can clearly see” she pulled out a pencil and indicated the map “the points of major interest are the 2 main straights and the hairpin. All in all, there are plenty of chances for overtakes, but it means we need to go flatout most of the time in order to climb up and ensure a good position…” Bobster interrupted Lisa “In other words, we need to find a way to make that 86 absolutely FLY. Especially considering that the Pegasus Motorsports’ NSX is going to be an absolute pain in the arse in the straights. The good news is, Success Ballast should make things a bit easier for us - they have the heaviest so far, which means it should affect their performance a bit” “Uh, Bobbo” Rebecca interrupted and raised her hand “We won in Sydney though, so we have a fair amount of success ballast too… how do we ‘fly’ on that track?” “Daniele, mate?” Gilbert raised his cap “I’m trying some different approaches, I could always try to do some minor tweaks with suspensions - what I am worried the most is finding a way to increase reliability of the engine… because I am thinking for this race we could go into Super Sprint mode. But that would mean cooking it faster” Alister turned to him: “If you want, I can help you with that!” Gilbert fist bumped him: “Bella, Alister - grazie, thank you!” Lisa resumed her lecture: “Also, this is going to be another 300km race. So, one-stopper is the way to go. We need to be extra careful when we stop because it could ruin us or giving us the edge” At that moment, someone knocked at the door. Bobster turned to it and cheerfully said: “Ah yes! I was almost forgetting our surprise for this race!” “Oh you found a girl for Alister?” Rebecca went into full smug mode to her teammate that scoffed in response. Bobster smiled widely before opening the door: “You mean, a new girl for the team!” As the door opened, a short slightly chubby red haired girl with green eyes entered the room - she seemed very shy and she struggles to talk, but is Bobster to prompt her to introduce herself. “Come on, don’t be scared… you’re with friends ay?” “Um…. P-pleased to meet you all! My name is… M-M-Marie McLaren, I’m tw-twenty seven and uh… I’m g-gonna be your engineer intern… I’m honoured to be racing with you all!” the girl bowed her head in response. Everyone couldn’t help but smiling at the sight but possibly the happiest one to see her was Alice which rushed through the office, reaching her like she had stars in her eyes and squeeing: “OH! MY! GOODNESS! YOURETHEMOSTADORABLETHINGEVERAAAAAAAAAA!!!” Everyone couldn’t do anything else but just go “EEEEEH?!?” She then proceeded to squeeze hug her: “LOOK AT YOU! YOU’RE AN ADORABLE JELLY BEAN! I WANNA HUG YOU~ I WANNA HUG YOU~ GOSH LOOK AT THESE CHEEKS! I WILL PROTECT YOU WITH MY BLOODY LIFE!” As Marie was getting her cheeks pinched she could only say: “Ah! Ah M-Mister Bobster, s-sir?!” Bobster needed to interrupt: “Oi! Alice! Would ya mind? Alister is enough to babysit, I don’t need another one thank you very much!” A thunderous collective laugh followed. Rebecca nudged Alister and asked: “Oi… mate. What you think? Does she have a type?” “Caralho she does!” one more laugh. And in this atmosphere, Bobster Racing was preparing for Sepang…

robkta • Member Posts: 90 Likes: 124	Post by robkta on Mar 17, 2022 16:59:45 GMT -5 "Go Speed Racer Go!" - Rebecca Speed in trouble with Met Police after high speed shenanigans in London night. Rebecca Speed's Nissan Skyline speeding on Westminster Bridge captured by a pedestrian on mobile phone. LONDON - According to the latest Tripwire post, for Rebecca Speed, titular driver for the Bobster Racing Systems team in the J-Speed GT Masters championship, should have just been a "ladies night" after picking up her new car, a Nissan Skyline dubbed the "Becca Special". It is possible though, that the Berkingtonian driver, along with her friends and colleagues from the team, which she brought along, let herself get too carried away by the euphoria of a new set of wheels, as some pedestrians have captured some pictures of the sleek Japanese sports car speeding through the City, and in particular Westminster Bridge and Regent Street, slaloming between cabs and buses at over 160 mph: an impressive show for whoever walks by indeed, but also a very irresponsible behaviour. This stint has caught the eye of the London Metropolitan Police that witnessed the happenings through the eye of the CCTV traffic cameras in Oxford Circus - the Met has dispatched a police car to stop the blue Skyline and all its occupants at the height of Buckingham Palace. According to Police Constable Lloyd Atkins "none of the occupants have shown to be intoxicated or under the influence of any drugs, they are just really euphoric at the perspective of getting their hands on a fast car". Along with Rebecca Speed, in the car there were also Lisa Garnier, former Stock Car champion and Strategist for Bobster Racing, the PR Representative Alice Harvie and the engineer intern Marie McLaren. "They all seem to have understood the gravity of the situation even though Miss Speed was constantly visibly scoffing". Rebecca Speed's racing practice in London costed her a hefty price: £3000 and 7 points off her civilian driving license for dangerous driving. Luckily for her, the police decided not to confiscate the car and the bail has been paid in full by an anonymous "Close friend and fan" which has preferred not to disclose his name. Bobster Speed, older brother and team manager for Bobster Racing Systems, has been reached for a comment but has yet to reply. Luka-Antonia Rolfe Another shot of Rebecca Speed's "racing training" in the middle of Oxford Circus, captured by a passerby on mobile phone.

robkta • Member Posts: 90 Likes: 124	Post by robkta on Mar 27, 2022 8:51:11 GMT -5 Bobster Racing HQ - March 27th 2:56PM Rebecca: knocks ...Bobbo? ...you there bro? Is me... can I come in? Bobster: groggy groans Rebecca: Come on... I want to talk... if you feel like it... Bobster: I still feel like I kissed a garbage truck but... sighs door's open... Rebecca sighs and opens the door. Bobster is in bed in his pyjamas and sits up Rebecca: timidly ...hi y'aight? Bobster: rolls his eyes up Oh fabolous... I haven't slept for 5 days, eaten only instant noodles and came up with a bloody fever. And all this to fix up the mess you caused. You have no idea how pissed were the sponsors, Bex... Rebecca looks down pensive Bobster: Hey, don't be like that I will be fine! Is just stress. Look, the doctor said I need 2 weeks of absolute rest. So Lisa will be the manager for the next two races... is really not a big deal... Rebecca: ...well... it is for me... I even managed to make you sick Bobster: Bex is not you that made me sick, don't take it so personally... but yeah, this whole thing... just... why? Rebecca: picks up a chair and sits next to Bobster ...I am really sorry Bobbo... and I absolutely mean it... I really am trying my best to patch it up... Bobster: Yeah, I know, I read your Tripwire update. giggles still, DMing directly Aoyama and Tsukishima directly? ...To be honest that takes a massive amount of balls mate... Rebecca: I felt it was necessary, you posted the statement yourself and locked up in the office to reply to everyone meanwhile I... exhales deeply and presses the bridge of her nose with her fingers ...well at least Risa replied to me... she seemed pretty cool... Tsukishima too... even though her statement made my blood freeze a bit... Bobster: giggle Well, let's be lucky she didn't tell you to piss off Bex, this is the best possible outcome Rebecca smiles softly in response Bobster: You still didn't answer my question though... why did you do it? Rebecca: with small hesitation well... have you ever felt... inadequate? Bobster: puzzled I mean... yeah a bit, since I hit my 40s... but I don't follow ya... Rebecca: Well... when you called me to race this season, I was happy because I thought I still have it. I was like "okay, we are going to do anything we can to win!". But then like... Bathurst started and I realised... everyone around me comes from a wealthy lineage of racers... they train everyday... they KNOW how to push to the limit and win. Meanwhile, I get in the car and like... as much as I try, I don't seem to have the same strength I used to have back in our Formula days... and that... makes me feel like shite... Bobster: But you won in Sydney... Rebecca: Alister won, he was the one that sealed the deal. I just... warmed up the field for him... Bobster holds his chin while looking at Becca Rebecca: I thought... I am worth something... that I could be able to like... y'know... making new friends in here and stuff... and yet this feeling of... gesticulates "not being enough" prevents me from talking to anyone... and so... I just do what I can do best... being an absolute mess... the fearless girl that likes to party, hits the pub and opens it up in the city streets.... but... this made me realise I just... look a pillock... and nobody wants to be friends with a pillock... Bobster: ...you know... you don't need to be "friends with everyone at all costs"... if they want you they'll come... Rebecca: Yeah but Alister also said, "Life is too short to have any enemies" Bosbter: ...wait what? Did he REALLY say that? Alister? cackles loudly Rebecca: laughs I know right? Bobster: Oh mate... is a good way of thinking though... Rebecca: Yup... sad face too bad I made it so that we are an enemy... Bobster: sighs Look... there's only one place where you can prove them wrong. And is the track... but before that happens, I really need you to have some thinking... about what you done and... well, to become the best Bex you can be... Rebecca nods Bobster: But I appreciate you coming to talk to me... and apologizing. Now I know you mean it. Rebecca: ...Is fine, I will follow the races in the paddock and is okay if you guys want to have 2B-I mean, Ogami in my place for these upcoming 2 rounds... that will give me some time to think... Bobster smiles at Rebecca while she stands up from the chair Rebecca: ...and sorry if I well, slapped you... Bobster: You call THAT a slap? Dad could slap me, that in comparison was a mosquito bite! laughs Rebecca: snorts Piss off... Walks to the door Bobster: Hey, there's only one more thing I want to ask ya... Who paid the 3 grands for your fine? That's a lot of money... Rebecca: smiles at Bobster before leaving the room Get better soon, Bobbo

I at least do all I can to cooperate with you! You just think about yourself! What is your- Luka: Because I am superior to you. Alister: Ah vá se foder! I’ll believe it when you win a race! Luka: I don’t need to. Based on my skills alone, I am at least cleaner than you in mixed and high speed courses. You instead, lack focus. You only rely on instinct and patience. As a result, you’re ineffective and slow to act. And you have no clear strategy. Alister: Gh! Luka: And not to mention, you waste time pursuing “new friendships” in a sport where friendships are not allowed. Alister: Wait. Is not- Luka: You are weak, Dos Santos. And it is time everyone notices it. Alister: I am not… Rebecca: HEY! What’s the idea here? Luka: I will make sure everyone sees that you are not suitable for this seat. I don’t need to win to prove it. Rebecca: Oi I am talking to you! Luka turns to Rebecca Rebecca: Again, what. Is. The Big Idea, huh? Alister: …is ok Becca I…. I need to be alone a bit… Alister leaves and Luka smirks at Becca Rebecca: So that’s what you’re doing… Luka: I am merely stating the truth. This team deserves a better driver. Rebecca: This team is made of people that work together, through high and low times. We are not perfect fuckin’ machines. And you are plotting to denigrate all of us in order to push us out. Maybe to put one of the puppets your sponsor likes so much to replace us innit? Luka: …I thought you weren’t this smart, Speed. Rebecca: Oi! You better stop sputtering all this shite from yer mouth,start cooperating and you better deliver a good performance on the Ring! I tried to be diplomatic and all I saw is just you being an utter turd to all of us for no reason! Especially Alister! Shut. Yer. Fookin’. Mouth. I’ll make sure Bobbo is aware of all I saw just now! Luka: You are getting old too, you know? Maybe it is time you start to realize where your place is, Speed. Rebecca: …piss off… storming out of the room - 2 Hours later - Alister sits sad on a sidewall when Rebecca sits beside him Rebecca: Hey y’alright? Alister: sadly Não… I feel like shit… Rebecca: ….hey, don’t think about what she said ok? She is just trying to fuck with yer brain. I’ll make sure she is served a wallop. I’ll talk with Bobbo about it… Alister: She is right though. I am weak. Rebecca: Ah don’t be fookin’ silly mate. You are awesome! Possibly one of the best drivers I have ever seen! And I saw plenty! Alister: Then why can I not make any friends here? Rebecca: Eh? This again? I told you mate, if you stop going behind girls like you’re obsessed, it will- Alister: I mean in general… Rebecca: …in general? Alister: hugs his knees Tenho saudade da minha casa, Becca. I have nostalgia of my home, my friends, minha mãe, meu pai… I feel like I am alone often. Rebecca: …mate… you didn’t tell me you felt this lonely… Alister: …I didn’t want you to think I was weak. That would have been humiliating Rebecca: Humiliating?! That’s ridiculous, come on! How is that humiliating, yer a human being mate! Alister: Yeah but you are Rebecca Speed! The Valkyrie! Reckless Bex! You were the favorite Formula driver of my family back in São Paulo! You did great things! And I would watch your old races and I wanted to be like you! And now I am here… I wanna make sure I am worthy to be your teammate, caralho! Rebecca: lowers her head and sighs Trust me mate, it is better if you are not like me… Alister: But… Rebecca: Look, I wanted to make friends too in this league… by acting like a cocky idiot…. as usual…. And ended up pissing off everyone. Because nobody wants to be friends with a bloody pillock... Alister: …you talking about London? Rebecca: And my reply to Aoyama… I didn’t mean it to sound like I was an arsehole… and yet… finger snap chain reaction… Alister: …for what is worth… I believe you when you say you didn’t mean bad… Rebecca: …is not really important… Alister: It is… I didn’t mean to say what I said… and well… it just made things worse… I really am a disaster… Even my skills are… Rebecca: resolute, stands up in front of Alister Listen… your skills are vastly superior to mine… Alister: Huh? Rebecca: Seriously, you have patience I lack since forever. And you are able to come up with strategies. I mean, think bloody Sydney! We made a miracle mate, A MIRACLE! And wasn’t me on the last lap to seal the deal! It was you! You dammit! And no “sponsor package”-endorsed twat is gonna convince me otherwise! Alister tears up You are Alister Dos Santos, an amazing driver… and my teammate. And you are absolutely worth to be in this team! No matter what happens! Alister: holding tears back I miss my teammate… Why did you do that?! You should be on the track with me! Not Ogami! Rebecca: …I was… stupid… As I said, I tried to make friends, the wrong way… And it bit me back… badly… Alister: If I won in Sydney, it is because you encouraged me! You gave me tips! I know we have differences in the way we drive… and I know I can be a bit… exuberant at times… but it doesn't matter! I like driving with you! You help me feel more courageous behind the wheel! And you are great to be around! Never once you meant harm to me unlike Ogami! You are empowering , and you care about this team! crying I miss you Becca… Is not the same on the track! Luka is sinking us all… We need Reckless Bex back! To lift the team back up again! You’re the only one that can do it! I need the Valkyrie to fly with me! Rebecca: No mate… you don’t… You need a friend… Becca comes closer and hugs Alister Rebecca: …and you got one. Aight? they both hug tight Rebecca: Listen closely. No matter what happens or how this season end - I get your back, you get mine, got it? Alister nods Alister: sniffling Obrigado, Becca. Thank you. And sorry… Rebecca: You have nothing to apologize mate. Is all good, aight? Alister nods Rebecca: Is like ya said, life is too short to have enemies. However, maybe it is not compulsory to be friends with every single one. Ya know? Alister: Maybe it is better to concentrate on the people who are really worth being friends with. Rebecca smiles Rebecca: Attaboy… And remember, we are by your side ok? Don’t listen to Ogami. In fact I will go talk to Bobbo right now about that. Alister: Okay… hey… Rebecca: Hm? Alister: Sorry if I… broke down… it never happened to me like that before… Rebecca: As I said, you are human. I value that more than technique and results mate smiles Come on, let’s go back.

Lisa Garnier passes Rebecca Speed at the Spoon curve! ON THE VERY LAST LAP! It has been a sensational drive for both of these outstanding talents! - And what a way to bid farewell to the Grand Prix circus! Bobster Racing have surely proved themselves in these last 3 years! And have indeed become a fan favorite!" Amidst the blue sky, the azure wings of the Valkyrie spread in the breeze. "-Say Bex... don't you think at some point we shall come out clean about your age? - Bobbo, I told you! 24 is not old at all.. I'm still young! -I was talking about your REAL age... -..." Raising her helm, she scouts the battlefield with her maroon eyes. She knows she will have to fight hard to prevail; defeat is not an option. "-It was my fault! I should have never asked to pit in! I am so sorry! I.... I FUCKED UP SO BADLY I..! -Bex enough! -Sim por favor! Is okay! We are here! Okay? And please don't see me as your enemy... entendido? -...lads I... -We here sis, together!" "AND IS BOBSTER RACING, WITH THE BIG W HERE IN SYDNEY! Huge congratulations to the team, no matter how it will end, they will surely remember this moment for all season!" One by one, her sword vanquishes her enemies. But even the mightier of advances can meet its setbacks. "I'M BENCHED?! WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA?!" "You'd be wise not to abuse the privileges your allies grant any further, Speed... I'm watching you" "You are getting old too, you know? Maybe it is time you start to realize where your place is, Speed." But despite everything, a Valkyrie is never alone. She has her own allies on the battlefield. And they are all ready to take her defense when the situation gets dire. "I miss you Becca… Is not the same on the track! Luka is sinking us all… We need Reckless Bex back! To lift the team back up again! You’re the only one that can do it! I need the Valkyrie to fly with me!" "We made mistakes, we even had people that tried to sabotage us, or talking us down, but the thing is, as long as we stick together, it doesn't matter how many mistakes you make.." "-Listen closely. No matter what happens or how this season end - I get your back, you get mine, got it? -Obrigado, Becca..." "How you get back up, is always more important of the number of times you fall. And this is how we came to this point" You get back up... ...you always get back up... ...no matter how many times you fall... ...how many times... ...you'll be there... standing ...with a warcry that will thunder through the heavens and vanquish your foes... Bobster: Ah, you're here. Becca: Sorry Bobbo, I couldn't sleep. Bobster: Fair. I understand... Man... look at this sunrise...is pretty innit? Becca: Hm... When was the last time we raced here? 1995, right? Bobster: The last time we lit a track with our blue.... until now that is... Becca: Let's hope to do it again,ay? Bobster: nods We will give our best, sis! he pauses for a second Bobster: Ya know, at some point we should come clean about your age Becca: Bobbo, I keep telling ya, 38 years old is still young Bobster: I meant your REAL age... Becca: ... heh...deja vu... Bobster: You know I will not be around forever, sis... I'm gonna be 50 soon... and as much as I wish to live forever... I have limits... I still feel like a 25 years old driving a 49 years old car... No matter how good of a driver you will be... the car will still start to lose parts... Becca: exhales.... ya know... I lost count of how many lifetimes I went through... before crossing path with your family... but until then... I kinda... was dragging myself around... I even lost interest in finding out where do I really come from... what was my real name... my real family... but... I saw you... I fell in love with driving... tears ...is a kind of magic that got into me and... is all thanks to you... weakly smiles You're still my big bro...and nothing will change that... I'm... just... not ready... what will they say if they find out... Bobster: Nobody will do or say anything. You're my sister, bloody hell! And no journalist, J Speed representative or random twat will hurt you under my watch.... but... we will need to come clean about this really... they hug Bobster: I promise I will defend you sis... even if you make me so fuckin' angry at times... and you just behave like a pillock... Becca: tearfully smiling ...piss off... Thank you... big bro... Bobster: You're not alone. Aight? Becca: ...aight.... and I promise... when I'll be ready... we will do a statement and all that lot... but... give me some more time ok? Bobster: nods Ok, sis... I believe you. But remember, I will protect you. Amidst the blue sky, painted by the scarlet vein of a new tomorrow, the azure wings of the Valkyrie spread in the breeze. She knows she will need to fly higher than anyone else. Her eyes watch over the Round Table. Her hand over her weapon, ready to be wielded... The final showdown is about to begin.
