Eng1: So its 3 liters for the outlap, 5 for the hotlap, 3 for the inlap and 1 for the stewards...
Eng2: Errm... 5, 3, 1... So that will make it about 9 liters...
Hamilton: that seems pretty accurate to me...

Frustrated with their recent bad luck in the pitlane, McLaren introduce Lewis Hamilton to new employee GLaDOS v3.0, who will oversee pit procedures.

The safe release is a lie!

Engineer: Bad news Lewis, the stewards didn't agree and penalised us.
Lewis: How, is it a grid drop.
Engineer: Well, the stewards were playing Scrabble at the time (?) and one managed to put 'P_NALTY' down on a double word score around an 'E', and put us on the grid at that score.
Lewis: 24th then.

"Right, that's 2 of the things we're supposed to watch out for in pitlane....anyone remember the other.."

"Something about the gantry boom being .....arrrr....dangerously close to something.... I think."

Engineer: ...and to stop our horrific pit stops, the FIA have introduced this! The new "Stop & Go" light. It's here to make sure that once you're in the pits, you will not be able to go unless both lollipop man and the light say yes.

Lewis: Are you sure they didn't just name it that way due to the amount of Stop & Go Penalties I'm going to probably receive later on during the year?

Final Entry.

Engineer: Due to our sponsors getting away from us, you'll have to struggle with only 2 men for your pitstops at this race.

Hamilton: They'll still be faster then in Bahrain though.

Engineer: Why do you say that?

Hamilton (thinking): Eyes the pitstop light and calculates the distance between it and the manbags of the engineer.

Engineer: We brought in this traffic school light; fancier than a lollypop don't you think Lewis?

Final Entry, Parc Ferme'

Engineer #1: "We have to be innovative. I'll get the engineers on a fix right away."
SM: "We have the budget, so get everyone working on it as a priority. "
LH: "We've looked at the lights, but have you improved the wheel nuts yet?"
SM: "Improved? We are trying to find yet another way to mess up pitstops... What did you think we were doing?"
LH "Jeez, I tired of you guys blocking my chan..."
Eng #1: "I've got it! good input Lewis..."

Hamilton: OK, what happened to my fuel?
Engineer: Oh, we needed that to pour over the Williams pit garage.

This light will turn green when the team are able to perform as well as your average level 1 car maintenance student.

Engineer: Sorry about the fuel loss yesterday, its just that we filled up your car with milk we stole from Williams, and got the amounts mixed up.
Lewis: MILK, what are you mental?
Engineer: Well it worked, their top driver was to fast, he was Pastor-eyes(d).



FINAL ENTRY
(Subject to status, may come up with better one before closing time)

Yeah that wheel gun was faulty, we gave it to Williams and it was "BANG" on...

"Lewis, as part of our innovative new sponsor initiative, all members of the McLaren pit crew will be
replaced by Vodafone's customer support staff so that you and Jenson might experience the
same level of customer service and satisfaction as the average Vodafone subscriber."

Right Lewis here's the plan: For the next race we are going to start from the pitlane. The starting grid has five lights, this piece of kit here only has two, so we'll be able to get a headstart.

Final entry.
 

Sam Michaels: The previous system was overly complex, which lead to some confusion.
This system only has two lights: red means go and orange means stop.
Lewis: Interesting...
Sam Michaels: In addition, the front jackman will do a triple foot stomp to confirm you're good to go.

Engineer: As you can see Lewis, we've found the solution to that awkward left rear, this bubble-gum dispenser is fully aligned to it.

Sam Michaels: So, we just dispense the bubble-gum directly into the path of the high temperature unchanged left rear, on exiting the car from the pit stop?... means we don't have to touch that left rear, yeah, i like it! should work!

Lewis: What the hell ?!?!

"Lewis: So for the past five rounds, you mean to say you've been fine adjusting this? ...Have you figured out how to keep me on the pole next time around???"

"Team: Lewis, Lewis obviously you don't see the innovation of this light system, it is vastly more important than getting pit stops right. Even more important than keeping you on pole :sly:!"
 
Not content with stealing Pupik's F1 caption book, TM has now stolen Famine's...
But that's the only way to be funny this season... :(

Don't worry, it's not my entry, since it clearly breaches Rule 42(a), Section Luke15, Lines 25-30:

Now his older son was in the field, and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. And he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. And he said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has received him back safe and sound.’ But he was angry and refused to go in. His father came out and entreated him, but he answered his father, ‘Look, these many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed your command, yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might celebrate with my friends. ...

Think about it. :odd:
 
Bah, the current field of pay-captioners doesn't impress me anymore, what with their full-face keyboards and thin-screen monitors that do all the work for them, nowadays...in our days, if you spelled a caption wrong, it could mean death for you and your fellow captioner. We respected one another and didn't bother with Final Entry just because there was rain or a bad wireless connection! [/ grizzled old caption-maker]


Oh yeah, caption.

Don't worry Lewis, we found you another gal to hang out in the pits on race day, and her father's rich, powerful, and has...huge tracts of land.

Lewis, mate, we've got good news and bad news...

Okay, give me the bad news first.

Turns out every qualified left-rear wheelman in the garage suffers from epileptic seizures when they see the pit lights.

So what's the good news?

We've solved the issue by swapping the tires around. Now the left-rear tire is on the other side.

Hilarious :lol::lol: on that first quote :)


And don't you mean her father's rich, powerful and has huge.......... tracts of land:sly:

I hope his '4th castle stayed up' :) and did not burn down and then sink into the swamp :)
