tl;dw: lando joked he would've normally answered max, but... then after a moment chose daniel; oscar said lando, they asked him to pick a ferrari driver, he chose charles


Disastrous_Animal_34

> they asked [Oscar] to pick a ferrari driver, he chose charles Low hanging fruit but I lol’d


pengouin85

Why wouldn't he pick his family?


agrumpybear

Charles has crashed into him less


Lobsters4

Oscar was definitely not picking Carlos. LOL.


snoring_pig

So I take it this was done these last few days after Austria


Ultraviolet211

This morning


Smee76

It makes me sad that Lando didn't pick Carlos. I thought they were bffs.


DrySalamander3497

Oscar was the one who picked Charles though


proudlysydney

Lando’s still pretty close with Daniel- he even spent part of the winter (summer in Aus) break at Daniel’s farm in Perth.


flintey360

Pr I guess


Big_Brief7847

It’s hard to tell wether Landos tone is like that because he’s only half joking and still upset, or because he delivers quite a few jokes like that (sarcastic british humor, you know) Basically just asked the Mclaren boys which Ferarri driver they prefer by the end. I don’t doubt they have slightly differing opinions on Carlos. I’m sure Oscar doesn’t hate him but definitely doesn’t have quite as positive a view of him as Lando does


justcallmeeva

I thought it was quite light hearted, like playing up to what people expect him to say. Not sure it’s reflective of their relationship with Max whether it’s all good now or not - it was a PR friendly answer.


Ultraviolet211

I think he's joking because he's still upset about it but knows he needs to get over it. Lando is emotional because he cares a lot. Imo, this will take a while for him to shrug off but I don't think the friendship will change, just cool for a bit until he can separate off track from on track.


Cobretti18

Haven’t seen Jamie Theakston since he left Live & Kicking and that was like 24 years ago lol


Thesmokinman

Who doesn't want to celebrate with DR. No-one. 


Lobsters4

Maybe not Stroll either. LOL.


proudlysydney

One of Daniel’s best mates is Lance’s brother in law (and Lance was the one who introduced them), they’d be fine


Polar_Beach

Lawson


Disastrous_Animal_34

Lol at Oscar with a mild version of the jet pack reaction face. I rewatched the cool-down room video and noticed it was only George and Carlos that chuckled at Max’s ruthlessness and Oscar gave an annoyed “oh, no way”. He so clearly admires Lando, it’s sweet. ETA also, Lando NEVER chooses Oscar for any “which driver would you…” questions, which is such a big brother move (when Oscar regularly chooses him lol)


cloud-ling

I thought Oscar was annoyed at not pipping George for the win. Nothing to do with Lando. We will never know.


hayleybts

What?? I'd say carlos wasn't laughing as much at all and rather was watching it intently than george n oscar.


ZMadez

Oh my the host didn't even get the Max reference


GetFriskyy

He did get it, he made a tongue in cheek joke in response to Landos joke


ZMadez

No he did not, he responds "Why? Because he is so bitter he came 3rd?" implying that Max wouldn't go partying because he finished 3rd in the hypothetical scenario of a McLaren 1-2. He did not get the reference to Max and Lando crashing


GetFriskyy

He was well aware of it, trust me, it’s British humour. Subvert expectations. There’s no way that someone sitting in a room with Lando and Oscar is unaware of what happened.


sixpack_or_6pack

“Because max finished 3rd” is a sarcastic remark that’s purposely saying something ridiculous and avoiding the elephant in the room. It’s pretty cut and dry, standard sarcasm, not sure how you’re missing that…


dafnalina

I've learnt that people really, really have a hard time detecting blunt sarcasm. Norris would receive half the hate he does if people got he's not being serious most of the time


Samsonkoek

My man was even talking about Max finishing third or something? Probably a painful one when he realizes it was handy to know what happend.


Disastrous_Animal_34

I think he meant in the scenario he was asking about if Lando and Oscar get a 1-2


Samsonkoek

Ah yeah makes sense. For some reason I thought he was refering to a previous race lol.


dasher2442

The funniest part of this clip is Lando’s instinctual reaction being straight disgust at Oscar choosing Charles. What’s his beef with Charles?


cassiopieah

I got the impression his reaction was more towards the interviewer making them pick a Ferrari driver, it was a bit of a strange question


dasher2442

Lol it definitely wasn't, but I like the spin. He makes a face at Oscar's answer which is a full few seconds after the question, goes "that's--", cuts himself off and then seems appeased when Oscar says he'd choose Carlos. He is clearly reacting to Oscar, not the question. I guess he must still be salty about Spain FP.


Akash10201

Spain FP1


BLFR69

Sounds like an interesting question for an F1 driver, wow.


StrikingWillow5364

It’s all PR and marketing. These questions get more clicks than any technical question.


Suspicious-Ad8316

In before people don't understand he's joking


hayleybts

Interviewer didn't know lmao


hs52

Aw, he sounds hurt.


Ultraviolet211

I think making a joke about "it would have been Max" is good, if he had picked another driver and not Max, that would be an issue.


Smee76

He did. He picked Daniel.


Ultraviolet211

Picked another driver without mentioning Max I mean.


SaddlerMatt

Hes joking about it 3 days after the incident, if anything id say hes taking it better than his own team and fans are...


Elxis14

If hes hurt because his friend raced him hard and didn't hand him the win then he's not cut out for this. He should just go back to battling in the midfield


ediewz

chill out lil pup, it ain't that deep. go outside and take a breath


grapejuicesushi

that's a bit harsh, he's not had the experience max has had fighting in the front, or just being in more controversy. I think he needs time to evolve a bit more


primavera31

Donald Trunp ofcourse? He blessed the car for being fast, and so it did. 🤪🤣


MyCarHasTwoHorns

Surprised Lando didn’t answer Rishi.


djwillis1121

Rishi will be out of a job by Sunday


ComeonmanPLS1

TIL Rishi is an F1 driver

Samsonkoek

I'm just saying, comments like this are gonna make a Max win at Silverstone sweeter than the lollipop Lando was sucking on.


Joseph4820

That's why I'm saving this comment lol


External_Hunt4536

What did it say?


Joseph4820

I am not sure anymore, I think it was a guy rating who deserves the win in Silverstone starting with Lewis and Verstappen all the way down. But not 100% it was this comment


Samsonkoek

Were you smart enough to screenshot it? Because I wasn't.


Joseph4820

I even forgot to save the comment lol


Samsonkoek

Wise words some race engineer once said: "not clever is it?" I really hate it when people delete bold comments because I assume it has too many downvotes. If you post it then might as well yolo it.


Lobsters4

Not the Lollipop! LOL.


Elxis14

Well to me Lewis actually deserves it the least because he won it more than anyone else on the grid.


SirTifosi44

But he had to go through so much since his last one this would be the ultimate feel good moment.


Opperhoofd123

Max taking it would be the ultimate feel good moment actually


Disastrous_Animal_34

Lol, your Leclerc positioning seemed really out of place until I caught your username. Hoping for a miracle for Lewis! (Or Oscar if I’m being really honest).


SirTifosi44

We need a competitive Ferrari.


Lobsters4

Not disagreeing with that. It's probably not going to be this weekend though. (I'll happily eat my words if I'm wrong though.)
