[Jimlaad43]

Pictured here is the worst moment of Daniel's season. No, it wasn't being hit by his team mate in Hungary. It wasn't the many Renault failures from great positions. No, it was here, when Daniel realised Christian Horner had added a certain Christmas song to his pre-race playlist.

 

[Flex0r]

​

"There's this girl that's been on my mind
All the time, Shoe-Shoe-Shoey oh oh
Now she don't even know my name
But I think she likes me just the same
Shoe-Shoe-Shoey oh oh"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Sussudioogg.ogg

 

[FutureF1]

Daniel react's to a recording of Helmut Marko telling him that he has the honour of being Red Bull's second Australian number 2 driver.

 

[BlacqueJacques]

After Daniel Ricciardo given stern warning not to wait too long to make a contract decision by Red Bull chief Christian Horner ;
Daniel sings to himself: I'm dreaming of a new contract (sung to the tune of White Christmas).

 

[BlacqueJacques]

Trying to overtake prisonermonkeys 9th position!

 

[XJ40]

Daniel is deep in thought as to why that chick Bill Clinton was with wanted to borrow his knee pads...

 

[Touring Mars]

Ricciardo dresses for his upcoming contract negotiations...

 

[GTP_Ingram]

"I know it's normal to have squat toilets in this part of the world, but did you have to put this one on the pit straight?"​

 

[Roger the Horse]

At first they only thought Karl Marx's beard was growing out of Daniel Ricciardo's headphones...

Congratulations to @GTP_Ingram for winning the 2017 GTPlanet F1 Caption Competition - a second title in 3 years!!

Well done to the other podium finishers, Top 10 finishers and round winners! 👍
Special thanks to @Jimlaad43 for helping to run the competition this year

A 'Caption Of The Year' poll will follow in the near future, but in the meantime, thanks to everyone who played and voted this season! See you all next year, and hope you all have a great Xmas/festive holiday/new year celebrations! ​

 

[Jimlaad43]

3rd Place and 4 wins! Best year yet!

 

[Flex0r]

Hmm I believe this is the highest position I have reached since I started participating.

Congrats to @GTP_Ingram.

And above all thanks to @Touring Mars and @Jimlaad43 for running the competition. 👍

 

[GTP_Ingram]

Three wins, eleven podiums, only three no-scores (one of which was a DNS). Chuffed with that

Great captions all, and big thanks to @Touring Mars and @Jimlaad43!

 

[Roger the Horse]

Oh sorry, I missed the voting. Didn't get a notification.

 

[FutureF1]

Happy to take the last win of the year! Hoping to be more full time in 2018! Can't wait!

 

[Pezzarinho17]

Thank you to @Touring Mars and @Jimlaad43 for running the competition once more, and congratulations @GTP_Ingram on the overall victory! 7th and a win for me are beyond what I hoped at the start of the season! Sorry I was a bit vacant towards the end of last year and hopefully I can be more "present" in all aspects in 2018!

 

[BlacqueJacques]

Special thanks to Touring Mars and Jimlaad43 for running the competition once more, and congratulations GTP_Ingram on the championship! Big improvement for me coming in 9th; See you next season - even with the Halo 👎 Going to the Canadian Grand Prix this June (hopefully).

WINNING ENTRIES​

Round One - Australia

Stoffel: "I'd give it 5 minutes before using that toilet"

​

Round Two - China

McLaren engineers finally figure out Alonso has replaced himself with a cardboard-cutout version, when they realise he has absolutely no reason to look that cheerful.

​

Round Three - Bahrain

"Pastor, Bernie here. I've some great news. There is a drive at Monaco. Which team? Oh McLaren... Pastor? Are you still there?"

​

Round Four - Russia

Kimi Raikkonen is glad to see a proper Finn on the podium alongside him in the 2010s. Or disappointed. Or sad. Or angry.

​

Round Five - Spain

Alonso and McLaren plan their 2-Stop strategy for the race.
Eng: "Stop on lap 22 for Medium tyres, then stop again on lap 43 at the nearest Marshals post when your engine blows up."

​

Round Six - Monaco

Strong with this one, the Force is not.

​

Round Seven - Canada

"Canada, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the star driver Hamilton. His continuing mission: to explore strange new apexes, to seek out new pole positions and new instagram posts, to boldly go in car number forty-four!"

​

Round Eight - Azerbaijan

All I want for Christmas (but preferably the next race) is an upgraded Renault power unit - Mariah Carey ft. Red Bull Racing.

"You look different today, Chase. Have you done something new with your hair?"

​

Round Nine - Austria

Eeny, meeny, miny moe,
Smash a rival off the road,
Likely penalty: stop and go,
This week I'll ram Fernando

​

Round Ten - Britain

No wonder Britain voted for Brexit when the Romain campaign was so ridiculous.

​

Round Eleven - Hungary

Fernando Alonso tries out the new DRS - Driver Relaxation System

Alonso is clearly beside himself with relief, knowing he doesn't have to drive a McLaren Honda for the next 3 weeks.

​

Round Twelve - Belgium

"So you're tellin' me not only will that MGU-H thing draw energy from the turbo to mek it spool up quicker, but if I chuck a teabag in that 'ole up there it'll mek me a brew too?! Magic that. Magic."

​

Round Thirteen - Italy

Force India unveil the punishment Sergio and Esteban will have if they crash into each other again.

​

Round Fourteen - Singapore

Kevin’s Christmas Card to Jolyon

​

Round Fifteen - Malaysia

First one to say "For sure" pays the Singapore repair bill.

​

Round Sixteen - Japan

Le Misérable.

​

Round Seventeen - USA

When I said "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, I was talking about Hillary..."

​

Round Eighteen - Mexico

Gasly: Why did Helmut Marko fire Daniil Kvyat?
Engineer: He succumbed to Pierre pressure.

And this little piggy went to Sauber

​
