Checo going "Charles was strong today, eh?" in the cooldown room.
My guy is so conditioned to being the Lestappen third wheel that he needs to bring Charles up whenever the guy isn’t in that cooldown room with him and Max.
charles was asked if they are starting to catch redbull and in both interviews he acknowledged that without max it is difficult to understand because he is the reference. he knows that max is the only one to beat.
rubens barrichello went to a brazilian podcast recently and revealed two funny tid bits about classic f1:
- he used to bring a fart noise machine and put it under othe driver's chairs during drivers' briefings. sebastian vettel thought it was so hilarious he used to sit beside rubens during the meetings to observe the target confused by the noises, and often said target would be none other than michael schumacher. the machine had 6 different type of fart noises and he used most of them on michael until schumi discovered it and just looked at him with a disappointed "what a child" look.
- rubens also said that gerhard berger used to tell him about the prank war he had with ayrton senna. one day he bought 20 frogs for $100 and put them all in ayrton senna's hotel room.
