lance stroll: 'i have an illness'
racing point: 'we have a hulk'

[IvoTrausch]

commentator: "Lance Stroll is not well this morning"
background singer: "Leave it to the expert"
Whoever edited this has got my kind of sense of humour

[kurosakirahul]

He didn't even know how to use the entire steering wheel for Christ's sake and the car not set up right cause of no practice session. This guy definitely deserves a full time seat

[ayushdubey]

Hulk came out of nowhere, didn't ruin anybody's race, and didn't complain about people racing him "sO hArD". Red Bull, give him that seat

[akashjayanthan]

Its like that typical scenario in a movie, where an old veteran pro is called up after having no choice, and he just straight up saves the world..

[coolio]

This man has earned a spot in F1. Give him a seat.

[Kugel--]

Imagine how silly you would feel if you sacked him just to replace him with Ocon

[sandalphoncpu]

Imagine you’re planning to do a broadcast, then you got a call to race. Gets no practice, starts last, and gets 4 points. That’s some flex if I ever seen one.

-Stops his breakfast as soon as he gets the call, drives to Nurburgring in his GT2RS
-Zero practice, zero time to setup the car and qualifies P20
-Finishes P8 from P20 with the new add-ons that Lance struggled with
-Back-to-back Driver of the Day awards for his outstanding drives.

Someone give this man a seat! He would be getting podiums this year if he drove for Racing Point.

[fitzm]

If this man doesn't get a seat in 2021 i may have to question everything I've ever known in life

[lemanchance]

This guy is honestly my most respected driver in 2020 season.
Being a "part-timer" and still beat half of the other full-time drivers on the day.
I bet in 10 to 20 years' time there will be a Hollywood movie dedicated to him

When racing point boys get sick hulkenburg ‘I got this’

Name: Nico Hulkenberg
Job: Professional Freelance F1 Driver

[ujooju]

Vettel: 17 points
Hulkenberg: 10 points
Fight for the best German of the 2020 season continues.

[cdalvany]

“Because he's the hero F1 deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll call him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A pink knight.”

[astroknight]

Stroll: replaced Ocon
Ocon: replaced Hulkenberg
Hulkenberg: took Stroll's place

The cycle is complete.

[zoomgle]

anyone: *cough*
Hulkenberg: I'm here!

[sultanabran]

He doesn't just deserve a seat, he's shown he deserves a seat at a front running team. giving him a midfield or backend car would just put him back where he was. he's shown quality to be up at the front. red bull, ferrari, mercedes, force india, renault, mclaren should be where he's at. why did renault let him go? so dumb.

[LamboWalker]

Hope it's not his last race ever, if it is then it would be a big shame

[adityapawar]

The Fact he didn't make a single mistake during the race without any practice proves why he deserves that RB Seat more than Albon who says "why they race me so hard"
