Someone help me out here. I seem to remember around 2007-2010 McLaren having some internal drama involving someone's girlfriend/sister/wife. It's been awhile but I seem to remember this woman was dating one of the drivers and was related(?) to the other. I am not sure on this but my memory wants to say the drivers were Lewis and Jenson. It keeps popping back in my head that she gave a several interviews saying she could stop the fighting between the two. In typical bad movie fashion one of them was like "sure ill do it if he does" while the other was having none of it what so ever. Am i just getting old and making things up or was this a real thing?

Jenson's girlfriend was taking part in a TV talent show at about that time if my memory serves and I think Lewis started going out with Nicole what's-her-name at some point during that timeframe as well

Right and your gif shows a failure to brake or steer, not accelerate, where they specifically emphasized acceleration to be polite to Our Rossie (as they should)

Thanks m8, but I only remember one woman being involved in this. Im having slight flashbacks of her watching on the tv in the garage almost having a panic attack while Lewis and Jenson (still not sure if its these two) are battling it out on track.

She definitely could've been freaking out in the garage but she's not related to Jenson or something like that.

There's no way it is possible given the criteria you've said. Jenson was dating Jessica Michibata and Lewis was dating Nicole Scherzinger, there are no familial connections between the two drivers' then partners.

Also, and maybe this is just me, Lewis and Jenson's partnership was never really that tense. It was more Lewis being a moron on social media and Jenson driving him into a pit wall that one time.

It's very possible she was dating one and was just friends with the other. It's been a long time and I haven't thought about this since it was happening. I did some looking and found a video from Turkey 2010. The woman at 1:25 is who I was talking about. They don't show all of it, but she was in full on panic mode, yelling at the screen and everything throughout the race. I know this wasn't the only incident either and I'm 90% certain the interviews did happen with her saying she could fix the problems. Sorry in advance for the moonspeak and russian social media site. Its the best I could find.

That's Nicole, but really, she had no relationship with Jenson whatsoever. She was probably just running her mouth.

That's a pretty cool video. That Lewis I could almost like, before he went mental and got all full of himself. Jenson, on the other hand, seemed to be pretty much the same guy in his last race interviews (except more drunk).

Yeah that's Scherzinger. She had no influence on Jenson or any meaningful relationship to him, though I suspect that around that time it was when her career as a solo artist and an X Factor judge was taking off, so chatting bollocks to get in the public eye was probably in her interest, regardless of the truth.

Fun fact: she now advertises yoghurt in the UK.

No, it's the kind where she 'accidentally' smears it on her face and it looks like a lovely porn blooper.

y'know, because we all make our yoghurt decision on whether or not it looks like a money shot from a blue movie.
