We are in the midst of the Formula 1 season and we see competition heating up.

Here is a brilliant commercial featuring the McLaren Mercedes team that has been posted on YouTube. Yes, even though they are not the team that I am supporting, I still find this commercial a brilliant one.

It helps to know who the people in the commercial are to get the humour. The clip features McLaren’s two drivers for this season – Fernando Alonso, reigning F1 champion for two consecutive seasons and Lewis Hamilton, F1 rookie currently leading this season’s F1 championship race by 7 points, ahead of Alonso. Former F1 champion with McLaren and retired Finnish driver, Mika Hakkinen , made a brief appearance towards the end. His appearance is the golden moment that gives this clip all its novelty.
