After the exciting end of the last 2021 championship, with the definition on the last lap of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix that ended up crowning Max Verstappen as the new world champion over Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes seems to be willing to face the new year with another mood… at least from the virtual world.
A few days ago, Hamilton himself returned to his usual activity on social networks, and this Wednesday, the day in which Red Bull presented the decoration of his RB18, Mercedes proved to be very attentive to the event.
Through its official Twitter account, the German team posted a meme at the time the presentation of its great rival was taking place. It belongs to an instant from the American teen comedy series Drake & Josh , which aired between 2004 and 2008 on the Nickelodeon television network.
In the image used by Mercedes, Megan Parker, one of the main characters played by actress Miranda Cosgrove, can be seen saying “Interesting” in front of her computer with a smile, in a clear allusion by the Brackley team to the presentation of Red Bull.
Mercedes’ tweet quickly sparked a massive amount of interaction from Formula 1 fans, with thousands of retweets, likes, and replies.
After knowing what Red Bull looks like for 2022, we will have to wait until February 18 to find out what the Mercedes W13 will be like, although it is very possible that it will do as its rival and show little of the reality of what its car will be for next season.
Will there be a return of kindnesses from Red Bull on social media on that day?
