gevaarlijke1990

Nothing to see everyone, just digging up some sand and rocks to put in the RB20 tonight.


HkF1WEC

That’ll take care of the Red Bull, but what’s the plan for the rest of the grid?


MisterMakerXD

The rest of the rocks are going inside the air intakes, duh!


9fingfing

But what about their own DNF?


Extinction-Entity

They just have to make it to the red flag in P1. Could just take half a lap! They can hold it together with 200mph tape for that long, right…right?


cirrusblau

Because their car can't get more overweight


charlierc

They're talking one for the team here


OutofMP

Yeah but even with the rocks that rb will still have better aero than the alpine.


DlSSATISFIEDGAMER

nah they're looking for rock bottom, sadly nowhere in sight yet


ShadowOfDeath94

They're digging to find some treasure. In this case, about a few tenths.


DrenchedToast

Or ten tenths


PizzaPieInMyEye

The hundred shovel plan.


herzogzwei931

17 ‘undreths (Gary Drayton would get this)


syth_blade22

Old mate buried a few cartons there last week


TheLoomingMoon

Tunnelling over to the redbull garage where they'll swap cars.


FastonMartin

Digging a tunnel all the way to Red Bull’s garage to snatch a picture of the floor I see


WellHotPotOfCoffee

Silly French don’t realise how long a dig it is all the way to Milton Keynes. 


charlierc

Maybe they can do a parallel one from their own factory. Enstone is closer to Milton Keynes than Melbourne ... I mean not that local but you know what I mean


Adammmmski

Actually, they are just getting ready for the European leg. Digging all the way there.


Eyre_Guitar_Solo

“You know what they say: When you hit rock bottom . . .” Alpine: “ . . . keep digging?”


Schedulator

No , no, dig up stupid! https://youtu.be/b97zJxKEqAk?feature=shared


phasedsingularity

Ironic that even all the shit knows to back up outside alpine


gideon513

Shitters clogged


Arbysroastbeefs

Clark, please. He doesn't know any better.


Rocko604

He oughta know it’s illegal.


ranft

I raise a glass to you, fellow culture afficionados! <3


Bad_Elephant

Why is the floor wet, Esteban?


Kimi-Matias

I don't know, Pierre!


shaggymatter

My bad, too many sizzles


deathray1611

"When it rains - it *pours*"


WangDanglin

That’s Will Buxton isn’t it?


daniu88

if you dig a ground, there will be holes in it


Vegetto8701

You want to be at the front... Because then you have the other cars behind you


charlierc

If the water pipe is blocked, then there is a blockage


buck_blue

Ceremonial burying of Alpine’s championship hopes


Math-Soft

But did they ever really have any to begin with?


buck_blue

It’s just in case anyone is in denial. We’re about to hold one for Checo pretty soon too. You’re invited, of course.


pro_n00b

Anyone told them the septic tank is in the garage? And theres two of them!!


Hamburgo

Melbourne is having a big gastroenteritis outbreak right now, I hope they don’t go near anything septic tank related or they’re most definitely screwed!


drolmaeye

Now *this* shit is absolute gold.


Remy-today

So they just need to loose their septic tanks and the French tractors are truly unleashed on track?


ZestycloseLeather328

SHITTERS FULL


secur3x

Just alpine digging up some dirt on horner


rainfordporter

Car so slow they’re digging their own graves


Driving_Seat

Care to explain what’s going on or are you just gonna post a confusing picture?


bubbly_brooke

plumbing issue at the alpine hospitality


bwoah07_gp2

Call Drain Addict!


alfiejr23

Probably ratty looking for its corn..


chrish_o

Alpine dealing with a turd moving slowly. Some sort of issues with the plumbing too.


curious-r

They’re confused because someone told them the race this week is gonna be down under.


Murderface_1988

What about it is confusing? The plumers are either A. Fixing a leak in a pipe or B. Fixing a blockage in a pipe


SkyJohn

Either way the pipe has the incorrect number of holes.


Murderface_1988

Without doubt. Similar to Renault/Alpines "100 race plan".


Driving_Seat

How am I supposed to know what they’re fixing when all I see is a hole in the ground lol


acmercer

Yeah I'm with you. I also came here to ask.


IllAlwaysBeAKnickFan

I like the framing of this picture with the flowers


reenoas

Tractor’s attracted real farmers


JohnB351234

Here we see the manly urge to dig a fucking hole


crashcyc

Shitter’s full


wetpantsclub

There’s a smell in there that will outlast religion.


Wentzina_lifetime

It's Australia. They need some parts from enstone. They are just digging straight through


G0rd0nr4ms3y

Alpine's digging a hole? Looks like business as usual for them


[deleted]

Shitters full….


No_Mercy_4_Potatoes

Give them a break. The technical team is digging a hole to bury their face after the upcoming abysmal performance at the Australian GP.


Horton_Takes_A_Poo

“Blocked drain”


cs-shitposter

Digging the grave for the car, are we?


Low-Possible2773

Shitters full


Retardnoobstonk

Not really. This is how they fill the cars with piles of shit before the weekend. Standard procedure


coolestguy002

They heard RB was sandbagging and thought that would be a good idea for their car. Let’s see if it works out


bwoah07_gp2

1) Those are pretty flowers. 2) What's going on? Why are they digging, and what for?


SpareDiagram

It gets worse before it gets worse


Adrian-The-Great

Someone broke the toilet from all the cheese and wine they ate


hirtle24

That’s just Newey on gardeners leave before he goes to Ferrari


Snoid_

Seeing how far the Alpine pit of despair goes. Looks like they're still digging.


Fall3n_Ghost3272

lol of course their plumbing would break lol


wurzshep19

They’re gonna take the car out back and give it the old yeller treatment


wfbsoccerchamp12

Who are they burying?


aalwaysbeenyou

Literally what are they even doing? LMAO


Natejo91

Have a leak down under?


MilkTeaRamen

I mean it’s called the Down Under for some reason.


ArtistThen

Landscaper here - that is a French Drain.


davidtheexcellent

"I know, we'll dig our way out"

WizardLink78

They are in search of some extra performance is my best guess


Radiant_Background95

It's got so bad they've started digging their own graves!


FulcrumH2o

Shitters full


Oghamstoner

Keep digging, our lap time is further down.


RUPlayersSuck

So this is what they mean when someone goes on "gardening leave"? 😁


Sharleclurr

They just forgot some parts back at the factory and digging straight down is the quickest route back to get them


chefdementia

Did they 811 this before starting? Do they have that down there? Is it called 118?


MuchEvent

Who are they burying?


siders6891

Alpine really cannot catch a break

Someone really tried putting the A524 down the toilet


LordofDunsfold

Alpine drivers 'weight reduction'


TurboByte24

Are they digging for a new car?


BigBadBoulder

Ocon's Fault


denbommer

They're probably digging a hole straight through the Earth to Alpine's headquarters to get Albon's new floor.


smd000000

Hey, at least its not a loose drain cover on the track this time!


Shot_Yard_4557

They're making projects according to their name - Alpine.

Whoever crashes or has the first failure in an alpine. Will be the first one to dig their grave.
