Round 13 of the Formula 1 championship kicked off in Budapest on Friday. The teams and the drivers got their first taste of the track as they develop their references for the weekend. Meanwhile, during the practice runs, Sergio Perez stunned the F1 world with his onboard moment on the track.

This rare occurrence baffled the F1 journalists, Anthony Davidson and Johnny Herbert. “I’ve never sneezed in a racing car before, ever – I don’t know about you,” Davidson remarked. While, Herbet added “I’m amazed by that, maybe it’s the adrenaline or something but I thought it was impossible to sneeze when you’re driving…Honestly, I’ve never seen that in a racing car.”

Like the commentators, the F1 Twitter could not believe what it witnessed!

Perez replied “Yeah we were trying, trying very different bits to definitely get comfortable with the car. I think we have a good idea, good understanding of the day.
