Gasly being shown the old commercial of a car driving down a road. Very much unaware of it's ending.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Pierre Gasly checks the stats and realises he was shown in the race broadcast for 1.4s less time than Charles Leclerc's girlfriend.

 

[Giz WCR-666]

Pierre- 'thanks a heap Doc, having Tele-Health access at the track is such a great help'

Pierre asks Anabot how he can improve his performance multiple times, but each time the answer is "Find another team."

Verstappen proves his credentials as the ultimate F1 risk taker by placing his can of Red Bull so close to the keyboard.

Everyone manages to keep a straight face as they wait for Max to find out there is no ball in his mouse.

 

[Flex0r]

"Are you sure you want to delete this folder from the main server"

On another note to everyone, if you notice I haven't updated this as late as I am here, feel free to tag, PM or call me out to stop forgetting that I need to do an update, or poke me by sending a photo to be captioned for the next round as that can be the holdup sometimes. I won't be offended if I have missed the update and you want me to get on with it.​
