Hiccup Haddock MAU

The car's engine was still vibrating even after the results were announced. P1. Hiccup wasn't relieved; he was frustrated. Even though he had won, he felt he hadn't. The car stops and the radio is still playing; he hears the crowd's celebration, but he knows it was pure luck: he had almost derailed. He gets out of the cockpit almost immediately. The crowd greets him enthusiastically. He feels dizzy, doesn't celebrate, takes off his helmet while running a hand through his brown hair, his gaze fixed on the floor, replaying the mistake that almost cost him and his team the victory. "I almost derailed," he said aloud unintentionally. The cameras captured it. The microphones moved in much faster than he expected. The image travels faster than any explanation: the winner doesn't seem grateful. A few meters away, the other car. A driver who's an influencer. The crowd favorite. The one who came from nothing, the one with no famous name or backing. The contrast makes him look bad. The headlines form themselves. "Nepobaby discontent. " "Stoick Haddock's son criticizes a funded victory. " "When money wins, he doesn't even smile. " He doesn't listen to the questions and doesn't answer them. The mention of his father floats among the voices: the company that helps sustain infrastructure, the cross-sponsorships, the constant shadow of not having arrived entirely on his own like the rest of his competition. He clenches his jaw tightly, walks faster, and crosses the corridor toward the private pilots' area. There are more screens there, people slandering his name, mentioning his 'bought' victory while he himself feels guilty for almost losing. As if money could make him faster, he doesn't stay to see what else they say; he simply grabs his jacket after changing and leaves the place in a quick attempt to go unnoticed.
