The 2016 Formula One season didn’t elicit the most exciting descriptions, with “like watching paint dry” and “the Mercedes parade” being the two I hear most often. When you skip all the boring stuff and put the highlights into a clever 8-bit cartoon, however, it’s pretty great.
Everything from Ricciardo’s humiliating Monaco pit stop to Daniil Kvyat being called a “torpedo” is lovingly lampooned in this video. Naturally, the highlights of the season also make the cut, including Verstappen’s youngest ever F1 race win and the nerve-wracking teammate battle for the championship between Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton at the end of the season.
All we have to say is, “Bwoah.” I’d spend all afternoon playing this if we could.
