VENICE BAUDELAIRE. born on september sixteenth, two-thousand-two (2002) she became the sixth-ever woman to drive professionally on the formula one track and the first black woman to drive in all of formula one history. she started off like most drivers in go karting before moving into f4, where she was scouted at age fifteen by ERIC BOUILLER before he resigned.

In 2019, she had her rookie debut under MCLAREN as the number 26. her fellow rookies of that year were GEORGE RUSSELL, LEON KENNEDY, ALEXANDER ALBON, and LANDO NORRIS. in her first year, she won her very first championship with the MCLAREN team. when interviewed after the historical accomplishment, she was asked about the sport influences she has been quoted as saying:

`` — y'know there aren't many racing influences in america, especially where i come from. but i can say i am heavily inspired by the late-- and amazing-- Maria Teresa de Filippis. she paved the way for racers like me to even have a chance in this sport. so i would like to thank her for this championship. i would also like to say i was inspired by Ricky Bobby— yes, the one from the comedy movie, that’s why i chose the number twenty—six while i was a rookie. when I seen talladega nights i jus' knew i could be great like Ricky bobby. to quote Ricky: "If you ain't first, you're last!" ``

her time with MCLAREN was short, as she left the team in 2021 with two back-to-back (2019 && 2020) championships under her belt to start her 2022 season with FERRARI. Surprisingly, she was able to acquire her third championship. VENICE then stayed with the red team, where she had an extremely intense battle with her co-rookie LEON who acquired his second championship as he won by a mere two points against her. at the start of the 2024 season venice was exchanged for LEWIS HAMILTON, where she started to race for MERCADES. working with TOTO WOLFF, she was able to get her most recent ( and fourth) championship win. the rivalry with KENNEDY and her being so strong that year, too, that there were multiple times that the two racers had almost driven each other into the barriers.

although the two drivers have had multiple spats on the track over the past seven years they seem to somewhat close friends off the track. this can shown through solo interviews VENICE has done. a popular one being a ZIWE interview form early 2026 where venice is playfully asked about who she would date on the current formula one grid. venice immediately responds with saying leon.

`` oh easy, leon scotty kennedy. we may have a lot of issues on track but off track everything is pretty good—i think. `` she then giggled before continuing. `` leon is also the only single person on the grid to my knowledge, everyone else is either married, dating someone- which i dont wanna be a home wrecker— or just too young for me. ``

LEON and VENICE also have been seen on multiple occasions hanging out during their breaks. in 2025 leon had spent a week of his f1 summer break with venice at a beach in San Fransisco. with fans taking sneaky photos of the two out and hanging out. the two formula one drivers have never made any comments about the rumors of them dating, in fact they like to tease each other about it.

there is a specific in the movie scene where Max is laying in bed thinking of Planet Drool is literally him visuainzing where he wants to shift to and gets the quick visions/ memories of his desired reality. that shift attempt is technically successful as he shifted to a parallel reality where Shark boy and Lava girl are real.

but you may say: “venice, that isn’t enough to show that max is a shifter!” and to i would bring up max’s dream journal. he quite literally in the beginning of the movie is scripting shark boy, lava girl. in other scenes when he’s flipping through the journal we get glimpses of other things he’s scripted like his dreaming technique, the ice castle, and many more. also on the land of milk and cookies we see max lay down and manifest sharkboy’s motorcycle into existence next to them so they can use it to escape the plughounds.

as a little ending note: once arriving in planet drool max is shocked to see he actually created the planet which lava girl replies with: “..everything that is or was began with a dream.” so ever give on your shifting journey, one day you will be able to make it to your own planet drool and get to have your own fun adventures !!
