Hot Lap: Speed Dating 1

A burlesque dancer, a Formula 1 champ, and a diamond ring walk into a Las Vegas bar... The accidental wedding that follows might be the best mistake they ever make.

Reece: Maiken Lange is a walking glitter bomb with zero interest in F1 and no idea who he is. Which is exactly why Reece married her. She felt more real than anyone he'd known in years. Their drive-thru wedding? He meant every drunken word. And since his contract doesn't dictate who he can marry, he's bringing his wife to the Qatar Grand Prix. His father loathes her. His sponsors are going mental. But Reece doesn't care. Because this isn't about optics. It's about them.

Maiken: Reece Pritchard is an F1 golden boy with a spotless reputation... until he gets hammered and makes Maiken his wife. That booze-fueled night throws her into a high-stakes world of constant judgment. Reece's father thinks she's trash, and the media expect her to crash and burn. But Mai refuses to blend in, and maybe that's exactly what Reece needs, someone who doesn't play by the rules.

What started as a gin-soaked mistake just might be the real deal. Because that night, Drunk Reece saw more than a cheeky burlesque dancer, and Drunk Maiken saw the man, not the millionaire F1 driver.

Now, with the world watching and the haters hating, it's time for Mr. and Mrs. Pritchard to figure out if this unplanned marriage is worth driving across the finish line or destined to hit the wall.
