One of the best aspects of Formula One is the way the teams interact with the fans. And a huge part of it goes to the super-funny admins of all the teams who manage their social media pages. A notable one would be Mercedes F1 team’s social media admin, who never misses a chance to share a meme about the team. And as expected, Mercedes hopped on to the newest trend once more–‘The Evil Be Like’ meme.

Mercedes posted this meme which said, Evil Valtteri be like – To whom it may concern, I love you. This is a reference to when Valtteri won the Russian GP and silenced his critics. After crossing the finish line, he said on the radio “To whom it may concern, f— you”
The fans didn’t disappoint either, with a whole host of funny replies to the original tweet.

A reference to when a journalist named Walter Koster asked a minute-long question to the drivers, and by the end of the questions, all of them had totally forgotten what it was about. It turned out to become one of the biggest memes in Formula One.

The best meme however is one on Crofty’s iconic line “It’s light out and away we go”. This meme basically refers to Spa for the Belgian Grand Prix 2021, when the lights never went out and we never got away.
