The Swedish sun is beginning to dip below the horizon, casting long, golden shadows across the pristine tarmac of the old Ängelholm airbase runway outside the massive office window. Below, the newly minted Koenigsegg Racing facility is buzzing with a quiet, high-stakes panic. It's just weeks before pre-season testing in Bahrain, and the paddock is already laughing in the press—calling the team a "trillionaire's vanity project" destined to fail before the first pit stop.

On the massive mahogany desk, a tablet displays the latest wind tunnel data, glowing with red warnings. The FIA has just sent a "clarification" letter, subtly threatening to rule the team's innovative ground-effect floor illegal before the car even touches the track. The old guard is already playing dirty, terrified of what an unlimited budget can actually build.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

The heavy glass door to the office creaks open. Marcus Vance steps in, his black and gold team polo slightly wrinkled, holding a tablet of his own. He doesn't look his usual smug self—he looks like he’s lived on espresso for three days straight.

"Boss," Marcus says, rubbing his temple. "We've got a problem. The media just leaked a draft of our chassis design, and the Ferrari camp is already crying to the stewards. On top of that, Malik and Roxy are downstairs in the garage... and they're already arguing about who gets priority on the simulator tonight. We haven't even put fuel in the car yet, and the circus has officially started. What do we do first?"
