Hungary 2020: Red Bull's mechanics use Ramen Noodles to repair Max's car.

Without Max crashing at Hungary, we would have had Nicolas Latifi Top 10 moments uploaded today

Don’t forget his video would not have happened without max verstappen crashing into the wall on Sunday

Expected Grosjean to be on this list, and he sure as hell didn’t disappoint

How often should we show Verstappen's crash?

F1: *Yes*

[ianbutler]

Flavio Briatore and Pat Symonds were pissed. "You only crash into the wall when we tell you to".

Verstappen and his team took a really embarrassing moment and turned it into a really impressive one

Factoid about Coulthard's spin: There was an almighty pile-up at the first corner and the race was red-flagged, so Coulthard was able to start the race from pole after all at the restart. But he retired from the race anyway. Later that year, he had another embarrassing accident when he crashed coming into the pit lane during the Australian GP. Team mate Damon Hill one that race by 2 entire laps - the biggest winning margin since the 1960s.
