The whine of anticipation while Danny is getting the picture to load

[u/Purednuht → u/[deleted]]

I have to imagine this is the first time a teams had all three of their drivers be winners at the same track no?

[u/StealthMan375 → u/Purednuht]

Nope, that'd probably be the full 1994 Williams lineup. Senna (1985), Damon Hill (1994), Mansell (1986, 1990, 1992) and Coulthard (1995) all won at Estoril.

Also, Senna (1988, 1989, 1991), Hill (1995, 1996), Mansell (1987, 1992) and Coulthard (1998) all won at Imola too.

Monza too (Senna 1990 and 1992, Mansell 1991, Hill 1993 and 1994, Coulthard 1997).

[u/BassGaming → u/StealthMan375]

I respect your random f1 knowledge sir!

[u/honus → u/BassGaming]

That dude got a be Vettel in disguise

[u/StealthMan375 → u/honus]

Actually I just went to Coulthard's F1stats page, as he's the one with the least wins (13 in total), then cross-referenced the tracks he won at to the tracks that the Senna/Mansell/Hill trio won at, from their own pages.

In fact during this second cross-referencing session I just noticed that they all share wins at Silverstone (Senna won in 1988, Mansell in 1987, 1991 and 1992, Hill in 1994 and Coulthard in 1999 and 2000), Spa (Senna 1985, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991; Mansell 1986; Hill 1993, 1994, 1998; Coulthard 1999) and Interlagos (SEN 1991, 1993; Mansell 1992; Hill 1996; Coulthard 2001).

[u/honus → u/StealthMan375]

Seb, I’m a big fan.

[u/MEGAMAN2312 → u/honus]

:6702:

[u/Orange_Pukeko → u/StealthMan375]

Very good pull. Although am I correct in saying that Coulthard had not YET won at those tracks at that time? So the current RB line-up is still the first to have three drivers that have already won at the same track?

Edit to add: Let alone that they all won Monaco at RB as well. And they have doubled up on that stat this year with Baku.

[u/SpicyDarkness → u/Purednuht]

Dont think so, BUT what is a fun fact is that all drivers that have won a race for red bull, have also won a race at monaco while with the team (Vettel, Webber, Ricciardo, Verstappen and Pérez)

[u/cortesoft → u/thecustardgannet]

And Max not wanting to look at the camera because then everyone would immediately see the uncanny resemblance

Is your name Kelly Piquet?

I was expecting Jackie Kennedy

Can’t have her near the cars, she craves sheet metal

[u/andrewsmith1986 → u/theUnholyVenom]

[u/SirFister13F → u/jk47_99]

That’s just mind-blowing.

[u/MountainLeg1242 → u/SirFister13F]

She really knows how to catch what others were thinking

[u/SirFister13F → u/MountainLeg1242]

She knows what’s in her man’s mind.

[u/Illustrious_Cost8923 → u/jk47_99]

SOMBODY ELSE THINKS SO LMAO

[u/kudaking13]

he ded inside

[u/TeRRoX51 → u/kudaking13]

in his head he's probably thinking "well i'm the driver and you have to watch" 😂

[u/Dangerous-Spare7843 → u/TeRRoX51]

I feel like Daniel is one of those people that can get away with pretty much anything especially with Max

[u/salcedoge → u/Dangerous-Spare7843]

The thing is you can actually get away with almost anything with Max. He takes jokes pretty well.

He’s just locked in when it comes to racing

[u/suredont → u/salcedoge]

honestly I've got friends like that. still good dudes, we just compartmentalize lol.

[u/TeRRoX51 → u/Dangerous-Spare7843]

yes i think they always had a good relationship with each other privately, on the race track not so much but that should be normal.

[u/bobjoylove → u/TeRRoX51]

I dunno, the Max’s head moves means that he’s really not enjoying this. Pulls away, looks outside.

[u/Deckatoe → u/bobjoylove]

normal human reaction to being embarrassed lol

[u/bobjoylove → u/Deckatoe]

Well yeah, does everyone here think he’s a god or something?

[u/PotterGandalf117 → u/bobjoylove]

For 0.1 seconds after which he turned back and continued laughing

[u/baethan → u/Dangerous-Spare7843]

hypothesis: he gets on best with more serious people (court jester role)

[u/LeonDeSchal → u/TeRRoX51]

Yeah Max doesn’t seem like the type to be able to take a joke.

[u/Anachron101]

Wait, what do you mean "lookalike"? I thought Max played himself in those movies?

[u/SirFister13F → u/Anachron101]

I served with a guy that looked and sounded like Sid, and the guy’s nickname was Sid long before those movies came out. Had the same lisp and everything. We swore one of the animators had to have grown up with him.

We used to plaster pictures of the sloth all over our armory. One day our Sid came in to work having busted out one of his front teeth the night prior. Within 10 minutes every picture had the same tooth sharpied out.

[u/Bruhtatochips23415 → u/SirFister13F]

What was his reaction when he noticed the sharpied out teeth

[u/SirFister13F → u/Bruhtatochips23415]

He laughed, with his busted tooth.

[u/jez02 → u/SirFister13F]

I love me some good old workplace bullying.

[u/thebigphilthy83]

I feel like people 'tip toe' around Max a little, Danny's like "mate you look like a sloth....can I use your plane"

[u/NLMichel → u/thebigphilthy83]

'tip toe'? Look at what his simracing friends on Twitch do to him lol

[u/Loverbegoodtome → u/NLMichel]

Look at what Penelope does to him😭

[u/RotorMonkey89 → u/Loverbegoodtome]

she gib him tiny lil kisses an pour hims tea

[u/AmonWeathertopSul → u/RotorMonkey89]

To shreds, you say? And his simracing rig?

[u/brodie21 → u/AmonWeathertopSul]

Is it rent controlled?

[u/BernieSandwiches22 → u/AmonWeathertopSul]

To shreds!

[u/Hitman7065 → u/BernieSandwiches22]

You say?

And his simrig?

[u/Deckatoe → u/RotorMonkey89]

Kvyat reading this :14437:

[u/salcedoge → u/NLMichel]

The media has vilified Max to the point people think he’s this huge asshole on and off the track when he’s pretty much one of the most chill person in the grid

[u/Nanooktoo → u/salcedoge]

Totally. He’s the Anti-Jos

[u/lekas16 → u/Nanooktoo]

What a caring mentor can do to a persons soul after having a shitty father is immense. Like, that is what actually love and support feels like? Being cheered for successes instead of punishing for failures is the best thing ever.

[u/ProfessionalReveal → u/lekas16]

Is this Christian? Helmut?

[u/Nanooktoo → u/ProfessionalReveal]

The one before.

[u/maaaaawp → u/salcedoge]

Yep, from what I gather he just doesnt like doing media shit, which is understandable. But he does love racing

[u/RDS → u/NLMichel]

that clip of them all trying to ram him as he just effortlessly avoids them is great

[u/altbekannt → u/NLMichel]

'tip toe'? Look at what his simracing friends on Twitch do to him lol

Like what? Not following twitch at all.

[u/gustavolorenzo → u/NLMichel]

Look at what Lando does to him...

[u/kennyisntfunny → u/thebigphilthy83]

The media might sometimes but other drivers and his friends don’t

[u/AGE_OF_HUMILIATION → u/kennyisntfunny]

Understandable aswell, because he boycotted sky and netflix. He doesn't take shit from media when he feels he's in the right.

[u/Lizerelli → u/AGE_OF_HUMILIATION]

It’s when his family is getting abuse that he calls shit out. He also called the media out for their hypocritical message of being against social media abuse, but at the same time Inciting it with their conspiracy theories and hate campaigns on live to (eg ted).

[u/Legal-Rich-7538 → u/thebigphilthy83]

What makes you think people tip toe around him?

[u/Lumpy306 → u/Legal-Rich-7538]

Netflix

[u/PotterGandalf117 → u/Lumpy306]

Lmao nailed it

[u/pngwn → u/PotterGandalf117]

also on Netflix!

[u/Legal-Rich-7538 → u/Lumpy306]

You base your entire idea of him on a constructed show that does a lot of cherry picking?

[u/RotorMonkey89 → u/Legal-Rich-7538]

No, dipshit, he's saying that's what the original commenter does

[u/Disastrous_Narwhal46 → u/thebigphilthy83]

I don’t think I’ve EVER seen people too toeing around him lmao

[u/slabba428 → u/thebigphilthy83]

Can i use your plane 💀

[u/MarsScully]

Deadass thought he was going to show a picture of Kelly

[u/Imaginary-Captain729 → u/MarsScully]

This was funny, like in a laugh in my head way while smiling. THAT would’ve had me disrupting work.

[u/DemonSlyr007]

It's pretty wild that all three of those drivers have won the Monaco GP, all with the same team.

[u/GWade17]

God Bless Danny Ric. We love you lol

[u/jaetran → u/GWade17]

Danny is genuinely such a wholesome dude. Although he’s not the greatest driver on the track, he’s the type of person that every driver should strive to be. Love you Ricciardo.

[u/opuFIN → u/jaetran]

I'm gonna miss him like crazy one day

[u/danfay222 → u/opuFIN]

He’s such an incredible personality, if he wants it he’s practically guaranteed some form of press role after he retires

[u/LaserBlaserMichelle → u/GWade17]

The irony of it, is that Danny also sorta looks like Sloth from ice age... lol

[u/chinaisasshole → u/GWade17]

You need a guy like him on the team to keep spirits up. Applies to every single team/profession except maybe brain surgeon.

[u/Consistent_Research6]

Max's face resembles Sid from Ice Age, in a cute way. How many ppl have lookalikes in cartoons, look at the bright side, i use to call Max, tv-face, because his face resembles a CRT tv, also in a cute way.

Does that mean Mbappe and Max are brothers?

Have you ever seen a turtle and a slu… slu…. Arghh…sloth making little kiddies? How ould that look like? ( no pornographic interest!!!)

[u/Exotic_Library_7913]

There's also the T-Rex thing going on. He just seems to dislike it but is chill about it

[u/Dr_WLIN → u/Exotic_Library_7913]

Danny kinda reminds me of the T-Rex from Toy Story.

[u/Stan-with-a-n-t-s → u/Exotic_Library_7913]

I’m sure he’ll wipe away his tears with €500 bills contemplating all life choices while sleeping on his private plane 😆

[u/andymoogsbuttcheeks → u/Stan-with-a-n-t-s]

Money and private planes don’t make you not look like a sloth.

[u/lamewoodworker → u/andymoogsbuttcheeks]

Both of those can def make you not look like a sloth.

Seen a dude walk right into the nose of the plane while working on it.

Face def looks different

[u/Imaginary-Captain729 → u/lamewoodworker]

If he’d slow the fuck down maybe his eyeballs wouldn’t be getting forced to the side of his head. Alternatively he could just slam on the brakes and see if they come back together. I am not a scientist.

[u/JJROKCZ → u/andymoogsbuttcheeks]

Well, they can though lol he file get work done to change some of his facial features but I don’t think he will or that he should. He can’t change his eye distance but cheeks, nose, brows, lips, all of that can be changed, but then he wouldn’t look like him, I’m only ever for plastic surgery for repair of injuries, otherwise it almost always looks bad

[u/imagine-engine]

I think there's nothing better than Danny Riciardo taking the piss with Max like back in day 1. Good to keep him humble .. lmao

[u/hungry4danish]

[u/ShaggyShaftedVelma → u/Travieso_Cochino]

How did they do him dirty? I’m a huge Danny Ric fan but if you don’t have the pace you don’t have the pace. McLaren would have done everything they could to help him in the car he had.

[u/Waifustealer123 → u/ShaggyShaftedVelma]

They did him dirty by paying him millions to fuck off.

[u/aljout → u/ShaggyShaftedVelma]

Considering they have some of the slowest cars on the grid, it's probably not all his fault.

Am I the only one who does not get the reference? Max clearly looks different...

[u/Easy-Field-9127 → u/Piglet-Massive]

Max literally played Sid in the original movie

[u/blurpree → u/Easy-Field-9127]

actually got me there for a sec

[u/Metaprinter → u/Piglet-Massive]

Once upon a time, in a distant land, there lived a young and ambitious sloth named Sid. Unlike his fellow sloths who were content with a slow and steady pace, Sid dreamed of excitement and adventure. Sid yearned to bring joy and laughter to others, just like his idol, Max Verstappen, the renowned Formula 1 driver.

Sid would spend his days watching Max Verstappen's exhilarating races on a tiny, leaf-shaped television. He marveled at Max's fearless driving style, his ability to navigate sharp turns, and his audacious overtakes. Sid admired Max's unwavering determination and refusal to conform to conventional norms.

Inspired by Max's incredible speed, Sid decided to bring his own unique energy to the world. He gathered his animal friends, including Manny the mammoth and Diego the saber-toothed tiger, and embarked on a series of misadventures that would leave an indelible mark on their lives.

Just like Max, Sid's unyielding spirit and relentless pursuit of fun led him to unexpected encounters and hilarious situations. He may not have been the fastest or the most agile, but Sid's charm and infectious laughter brought joy to all who crossed his path.

Sid's unwavering positivity and determination, much like Max's on-track tenacity, became a source of inspiration for everyone around him. His friends admired his ability to find humor in the most challenging circumstances, just as Max manages to keep his cool even in the heat of intense racing battles.

As Sid continued his zany adventures, his reputation spread far and wide. Eventually, his tale reached the ears of the talented animators who were crafting an animated movie called "Ice Age." They were captivated by Sid's spirit and saw the perfect opportunity to bring his vibrant personality to the big screen.

And so, Sid the Sloth became one of the beloved characters in the "Ice Age" franchise, entertaining millions of people worldwide. He embodied the spirit of fun and lightheartedness that Max Verstappen had instilled in him. Sid's mischievous antics and heartwarming friendship with Manny and Diego captured the hearts of audiences, reminding them of the joy and laughter that could be found in even the coldest of times.

And so, Max Verstappen, the daring Formula 1 driver, inadvertently became the inspiration for the beloved character Sid the Sloth, spreading laughter and happiness to children and adults alike. Their unique zest for life and refusal to conform to expectations left an enduring legacy that transcended both the racetrack and the silver screen.

[u/GrandpaMofo]

Daniel is the only one who can get Max to laugh.

Not neccesarily insecure about themselves, but insecure about Max, which is very weird.

[u/maaaaawp → u/Mechyyz]

It seems like its mainly people who dont like Max writing shit like this ("meanwhile hes a double wc; wiping away tears with private plane; etc.."). I like max because he loves racing and hes there to race, and hes not a bad person, he clearly loves Penelope and guys around him and doesnt mind jokes, he just doesnt like the F1 media

[u/c3r7 → u/Mechyyz]

If you are referring to me, I’m a Ferrari fan. Max is a very good adversary, as long as he drives for another team. I was just noticing that he reacted well to the joke, a childish one by a funny but overrated (imo) pilot. Thanks for the downvotes mates! 😎

[u/OneofEsotericMethods → u/c3r7]
