The American-owned team, Haas, have been struggling for pace throughout the weekend at Paul Ricard. However, they had a breakthrough in the qualifying session as Mick Schumacher got into the second round of quali before the session got red-flagged following a crash.

The team were happy to have their first Q2 appearance this season, but Schumacher’s incident caused his teammate, Nikita Mazepin to get knocked out in the first round itself. So, the team decided to use a meme that exactly showed what emotions they were going through.
