Whenever Carlos Sainz and Lando Norris feature in a video, it is always a treat to watch. When Sky F1 released a new video, many would guarantee that the Chuckle Brothers are up to something once again. This time, the agenda included drifting, scaring each other, a milk deluge, a ruined car and possibly a hefty car service bill.

Sky F1’s Johnny Herbert pitched two challenges to Lando Norris and Carlos Sainz. Suffice to say, they attacked it with gusto and the result was worth a car’s ruined interiors.

For the first challenge, Sainz rode shotgun while Norris drove a couple of laps around the Circuit de Catalunya in a McLaren 720S. The passenger’s job was to keep asking fan-requested questions within the span of two laps. Unfortunately, Sainz quickly realised that he didn’t like being a passenger.

Things get cold and wet for Lando Norris and Carlos Sainz

In the second and final challenge, the difficultly ramped up by almost a million. Each driver had to complete a slalom course and a brake test in a regular road car. Meanwhile, their team-mate had an even tougher job, of holding a bowl of cold milk and prevent it from spilling.

Whoever had the most left in their bowl at the end won the challenge. Suffice to say, neither driver would exit the car bone dry. However, Norris won, as Carlos Sainz Jr forfeit quickly when he dumped whatever milk was left, across himself and Lando Norris.

Needless to say, hopefully Sky F1 or one of the McLaren drivers compensated whoever owned the now milk-stained car. It was for a worthy cause and the passengers and driver certainly had a fun time before sending it on its way.
