F1 News: Jeremy Clarkson Pokes Fun At Chaotic Monaco Grand Prix Pit Walk Moment
The Grand Tour and former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson has poked fun at a chaotic moment between Sky Sports F1 presenter Martin Brundle and actor Orlando Bloom during the pit walk ahead of the Monaco Grand Prix.
Brundle was filming his famous pit walk ahead of the iconic race and stumbled upon Bloom to have a quick interview with. The actor took the moment to promote his upcoming film, Gran Turismo.
Taking to social media, Clarkson joked about what Bloom had been doing over lunch to make him have the slightly chaotic manner. He wrote:
"Orlando. What have you been doing over lunch?"
Other Twitter users took the opportunity to joke about the interaction as well. One fan commented referring to the Red Bull cost cap saga which flooded headlines last year. They wrote:
"It’s no wonder RB breached cost cap, if that’s their hospitality"
Another fan commented saying that the interview as a whole was cringe-worthy. They responded to Clarkson:
"What a cringe interaction"
It seems some other viewers felt the same about the interview. Another F1 fan commented:
"Glad I'm not the only one saying that."
The Grand Tour host has clearly been enjoying watching the Monaco Grand Prix, sharing another post about pole-sitter Max Verstappen. He wrote, jokingly along with a photo of the Dutch driver with his ice packs on to keep cool ahead of the race:
"Christ. With that lot on board, my money’s on Max."
The race is now under way with Verstappen holding his position leading the race who is now being followed by Fernando Alonso and Charles Leclerc. However, with forty-five laps left of the race and race expected with about twenty laps to go, this could all change.
