Whitmarsh sets the tone for McLaren

Whitmarsh is certainly no Ron Dennis. Yes, obviously. Under Whitmarsh’s leadership, McLaren is leading the way in the F1 Top Model Championship. Whitmarsh shows us that team principals can also model:

It appears that Whitmarsh has mastered the fashion blogger pose:

One hand on the waist
Head pointed slightly down whilst eyes are looking up
Uneven weight distribution on the legs

Oh my! It’s the infamous “Little Tea Pot” pose. Oh Whitmarsh, you amaze me.

Looks like Big Daddy D (aka Stefano Domenicali) needs to step up his game. Afterall, there can be only one Team Principal Top Model.

Why Big Daddy D Needs New Glasses

Everyone knows that Big Daddy D got new glasses in Shanghai right? While they were a great improvement over his previous frames, I think that Big Daddy D needs an upgrade. Why? Well… Norbert Haug has a very similar pair of glasses as well! I’m sure Big Daddy D can do better than Norbert, right?

Yes that’s right Stefano… I’m posting about you on twitter too. Now do something about it.

Bag Check

Looks like Steffy’s bag made it through the security at Hockenheim without a hitch. I wouldn’t be surprised as his bag looked kind of empty. I wonder if he always uses a bag. Hmm… I’ve been so focused on drivers and their bag that I’ve forgotten about team principals. My bad.

F1 man bag increases by +1 yet again.

Ferrari Family Unveil New Logo

This looks pretty dumb… the logo is just behind the curtain… on the wall? Massa and Alonso look like they think it’s dumb too. heh.

Ooooh. Look at the amazement on the drivers’ faces. This is the greatest thing since sliced bread… err… the barcode maybe? =x

Now the poor sons must listen to dear daddy’s blahblahblah. They look so bored! But I happened to notice Alonso was wearing gold shoes. @_@

We’re a Happy Ferrari Family

Of course a family photo was in order last weekend in Turkey. It was Ferrari’s 800th race afterall. Look at this big happy family (click to enlarge):

Massa is actually smiling sort of properly here! No constipation in sight. When I see him here, I’m reminded of how young he actually is… because he looks sort of baby-ish here.

Daddy Domenicali is certainly excited, he is grinning from ear to ear?

Alonso doesn’t look quite as happy as his step father and step brother. I wonder what’s wrong. Is he constipated this time?

Or is Daddy Domenicali secretly holding the drivers’ hands behind the car? I think that might be it! It explains everything! Massa is happy that Daddy Domenicali is holding his hand… while Alonso isn’t enjoying it as much. Perhaps daddy has sweaty hands? =x

Oh look at how excited Big Daddy D is…. he is on thepitwalk again. Perhaps he gets text/sms alerts when I mention him?

Ferrari Family Photo… Part 2

Aww, isn’t this sweet? Another happy Ferrari family photo! It just brings a smile to my face.

But wait… why is Big Daddy D sitting with Alonso*? Is it because he is now the “team leader”? Poor Felipe Baby looks a little put out, no? Just look at him trying to smile (it looks so STRAINED!). Poor baby… or is it the signature constipated expression that Massa has mastered?

Don’t worry Massa, you’re still the favorite son of Big Daddy D. I’m sure of it, so don’t be so emo and THINK POSITIVE for this weekend’s race.

* Side note… is that the Viceroy watch that Alonso was advertising? UGH their dumb campaign worked, I’m a slave to marketing. *bangs head on keyboard*
