It is a known fact that quite a few engineers, including James Allison, James Vowles, and Andrew Shovlin, often show up on Twitter and YouTube to offer a debrief, hardly a day after each of the Grand Prix events. None of them tend to smile and rather have a stern face with straightforward answers to fan questions.

Allison, in specific, was the funniest of all, with no dialogues and mere stares at the camera. The Briton looked pretty much speechless throughout the video, and there was no denying that the entire social media team would have had a laugh or two while recording these debriefs.

Meanwhile, there was also a moment where Cowell, managing director at Mercedes AMG High-Performance Powertrains, was asked not to use the word ‘so’ while starting a sentence. “Can you try and not start the answer with ‘So’?” the producer asked as started re-recording the video.

Cowell had a brief pause, desperately trying not to do the one thing the producer asked him not to, but in vain. Overall, a rather amusing one-minute of smiles and laughter for the Mercedes fans, who have had to travel through a roller-coaster 2021 season.
