In preparation for me adding another connected OC, hereās some headcanons about Roger and Mikhail, because they exist in the same universe:Ā
- Roger spotted Mikhail and brought him to the attention of McLaren who eventually offered him a positionĀ
- Mikhailās car is bought by Roger because he really wanted itĀ
- Mikey looks up to Roger because, hey best racer in the world, but also because heās openly gay and thriving and that makes him think that whatever his sexuality is, he can make it as well
- Roger likes the idea of letting Mikhail take over him one day and heās taken to the kid because he brought excitement to the sport back; Mikey is rough around the edges, but has a lot of potential and talent, more than Roger had when he started
- Lil Roger headcanon: heās been offered some insane stuff by other teams to join them, but Roger always turns them down; heās fiercely loyal to McLaren, they gave him a chance when he was young and have always been in his life. Some people there are family friends, his dad having worked for them for decadesĀ
- Despite being cocky about predictions regarding him surpassing Roger, Mikey has an insane amount of respect for the man; heās taken a similar approach to his work ethic and also listens to his advice when it comes to personal relationshipsĀ
