Nico: Lewis, why is Bernie sexting me?

I didn't know Kimi's legs went up quite that high... Wow... did he shave?

Rosberg: "I blocked Kamui on facebook, do you think I'm next?"
Hamilton: "According to Felipe you'll first get a ton of viagra spam and then he'll rear-end you!"

"Nico, why do you look so tense?"
"Quiet, I'm going for a new high score on Flappy Bird."

Nico: "I went on the internet, and I found this..."

"Read it and weep Lewis..."
"They paid you how much for the PR on the podium?!"

Nico: "I did not need to know what Vettel did with his finger when he doesn't need to use it..."

Nico: Louis, get in on my no-makeup selfie

Rosberg: "I think Toto meant to send this to you Lewis?"
Text: "Yo Hamdog, what up with your bad self! Mass props dude, wicka cool win! #Yolo"

2 drivers, 1 cup*

Nico suddenly gets diarrhoea.

Nico is dismayed when he finds out (after waiting a while for his e-mails to work) that he's been asked to promote Blackberry.

Nico: Lewis, check out the latest phone from Canada's Blackberry

Lewis: Amazing they still have money to sponsor our team eh!

Nico: No Lewis, I do not want to see what your dog has been up to this weekend.

Nico: "Oh man...AGAIN?"

Lewis: "What is it?"

Nico: "This Nicole chick keeps asking me to meet up"

Nico: It says here that Bennedict Camberwatch is doing the podium interviews.

Lewis: Don't you mean Englebert Cumberbottom?

Nico: I thought it was Benewack Cucumber.

Lewis: Let's just call him Khan.

The delight of a 1-2 finish quickly disappears when Nico and Lewis receive the booking confirmation for their flight home.

msg: The Finger

Lewis: New phone?

Nico: Yeah the team gave it to me. They said I can control R&D path to suit my style, special treatment for being championship leader.

Lewis: But they said I was controlling R&D...

Nico;This music video is so hypnotic.
Lewis:What?-...oh you like her zinging then?
Nico:Yeah,zinging...sher...
Lewis:...mazing!

"We've got a new instruction from Toto. 'Mention Petronas in every other sentence or you're walking to Bahrain'?"

Text message received from Vivian @ 6.03 pm: hi babe, great rack! looking forest to seeing u wawa skittletits toboggan!

Nico: "Man, she has really got to turn off autocorrect..."

"Lol, Vettel said that Red Bull will catch us."

"Well, here's the problem - in order to figure out the fuel consumption, we need to know how to do long division."

Hey, text from Alonso: "Enjoy it while it lasts, there's gonna be another 'Red Bull' after you soon."

Lewis, check this out, apparently Malaysian Organisers are denying existence of a Grand Prix?!

For various reasons, I've decided to run the Bahrain round this week instead of next week, but since the winner of RD2 will not be known until next week, I would like to let someone else choose the picture for the Bahrain round.

I'll accept submissions via PM until 1600 BST today and then I'll make a selection from whichever pics I receive. Apologies if you miss this post, but due to time constraints I can't really do it any other way. If I get the same picture more times than any other, I'll use that - otherwise I'll pick one from the pictures I'm sent today. The pic will be posted shortly after 4 pm/1600 BST today. Please use gpupdate.net or an equivalent HQ pic source. (Preference will also be given to pics that are not too similar to previous pics used this season.)

Good luck captioners

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Can I suggest that we have a blanket ban on liking posts while a round is open to entries? I think it has the potential to influence which captions get votes. I seem to recall doing something similar in 2012.

 

[Touring Mars]

I'm against the idea because the thread is first and foremost a bit of fun and people should feel free to take part in the thread whether or not they are interested in the competition. Not allowing likes or replies would deprive everyone of receiving (and giving) positive feedback in a timely manner, which I am against. Also, it has never been the case that you are not allowed or even discouraged from commenting on other entries.

If likes generate more votes then that is simply part of the competition - I don't see how banning likes will change anything except to stifle interest/participation in the thread as a whole.
