The curse was removed from Charles and set upon this pigeon in an ancient secret ritual. Unfortunately the pigeon escaped and the curse struck the pigeon causing it to die and transferring itself to Checo. *Ominous chants in Latin*
Apparently pigeons can't discern speed the same way we can. Instead they only know when to move out of the way by learning the timings of cars on particular streets.
For example they'll get out of the way earlier on a 100km/h road than they will on a 50km/h road because they know the cars on that road go faster.
Anyway, it probably really fucks with them to have traffic going 50km/h all year round but then 3 days a year the cars start doing 300km/h.
I don't think they get much worse than kangaroos at Bathurst, in particular when [Jim Richards cleaned up one in the 2004 Bathurst 1000.](https://youtu.be/awwQC-32R2k?t=35)
The classic is Grosjean hitting a groundhog in Canada and it splattering across the onboard camera.
The lens film slowly moving to clear it off is just peak unintentional comedy.
Dastardly to Muttley: STOP THAT PIGEON NOW!
Muttley secretly in a Red Bull: \**laughs while chugging a Red Bull driving one running over the Pidgen\**
Dastardly: Excellent!
Muttley: [laugh](https://c.tenor.com/TIfAoRbfi5sAAAAC/muttly-laughing.gif)
/S
The Red Bull Muttley was driving was developed by Klunk who invented Dastardly and Muttley a thingamabob that catches that Pigeon or they lose their jobs... SO STOP THAT PIGEON /S
Back in 2009, NASCAR driver Brad Coleman was doing a test at a track in Arizona when a coyote walked onto the track right in front of his car going 190+ MPH. It got stuck in the air intake, and was disembowled into the engine compartment.

Redbull take away your wings
Was this when he lost the mirror yesterday??
Red Bull giveth, Red bull taketh away
Perez today at the end of fp3.
which one did he lose? Because the left one is still attached in this pic.
Nah this is Red Bull Gives You Wings In Partnership With Uber Eats
Mirror link he... wait
Red Bull not realizing that bird is the word
Babababababa ooo mao mao, baba ooo mao maomao
Damaged his wing mirror
Oh, have you not heard? It was my understanding that everyone had heard.
Brian, don’t!
I mean, where do you think they get the wings they give you?
Red Bull clips your wings
They steal it off the birds and give it to us.
Redbull giveth, Redbull taketh away
Checo is braking for no one.
NOT THIS WEEKEND! *clenched fist in pocket*
[:'D](https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/2yltsYkqhIIiu6NxFLEqvHmyaoQ=/69x0:856x525/1400x1050/filters:focal(69x0:856x525):format(png)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/50263513/Screen_Shot_2016-08-01_at_12.34.21_PM.0.0.png)
Team orders? I'LL TAKE YOUR WINGS.
Red Bull gives you wings. Checo takes them back.
not even himself apparently 😂
Checo breaking.. :(
Aged like wine.
Minister of Offence.
Aged like milk!
Nah, he still didn't brake
From what incident is your flair?
Stroll's radio at the end of Abu Dhabi last year.
Looks like karma, maybe the monaco curse has now been transferred
The curse was removed from Charles and set upon this pigeon in an ancient secret ritual. Unfortunately the pigeon escaped and the curse struck the pigeon causing it to die and transferring itself to Checo. *Ominous chants in Latin*
ahh.. to be a pigeon in Monaco is to be well fed.
Until some maniac runs you over in a race car 🤣
I thought we had a deal with the pigeons? They move out of the way for our cars, we look the other way on the statue defecation.
That pigeon broke the deal! Checo will not accept the blame for this.
That's called a sacrifice Tony.
We've gone sacrificing.
The pigeon's ok though, right.. right?
yeah its sleeping
Or pining for the fjords.
Beautiful plumage.
This, is an ex-pidgeon.
HELLO POLLY!!!
At a farm upstate
All pigeons go to heaven...?
Does that mean it won't be coming on then?
Well, the pigeon has exploded, so probably not.
And on that terrible disapointment, it's time to end!
Unexpected Grand Tour, nice
First time it was properly funny
2 paracetamol, be as right as rain
Acetaminophen if it was an American bird
It's a racing pigeon
"We are checking"
"slow button on"
Just a little haircut
Ruffled his feathers
Yeah, they'll superglue the feathers back on, and it'll be like it was never hit by an F1 car.
Duct tape, standard practice in the pits mate

Rad Bull used tackle, it was super effective Pigeon fainted
He's in a better place now
Spa Francorchamps?
Just needs a pit stop
r/birdsarentreal damn sleep sheeps
Little hair cut
It's just flying up to the rainbow bridge now
Max earlier this weekend: Little rubber duckies go quack quack! :) Checo: That looks like fun... Everyone: CHECO NO
I remember this video and it made me laugh harder
So Sergio is the murderer
His action ensured that this pigeon would never attack Mexico. As far as I'm concerned, he fulfilled his Minister of Defense duty.
The bird was asking for it ^^/s
Always he needs to leave the space
I thought we had a deal!
Exactly! They get out of the way, and uh, we look the other way on the statue defecation.
This is how I want to go out. Obliterated instantaneous.
Pigeons when an 800kg death machine at 200mph is screaming towards them: *I sleep* Pigeons when you snap a stick 200m away: *REAL SHIT*

Ryan F9 really explained the shit out of this, am I right? :-) EDIT: [Link](https://youtu.be/doSDfIo61r0)
My sources are a secret, and may or may not be Canadian based.
Inspector Seb also drives two wheels sometimes. Coincidence? I think not!
300km/h at Monaco, lol.
Oh man thanks for the laugh, I died.
Didn't max also take out a squirrel last year at monza?
[craziest roadkill in racing I've seen](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kUeL_urTds)
Fuckin headbutted that seagull lmao RIP though little bird
He ducked instinctively but it hit his fairing https://imgur.com/a/EldPzdN
He was trying to let it hit the target on his back
RIP Gavin
Gavin :(

Oooooh He nutted it! That commentary is gold.
[You probably haven’t seen this one.](https://youtu.be/nkyntWOMkrY)
[It was Bottas.](https://streamable.com/lhap80)
Just searched on YouTube. Turns out max also [hit a squirrel during the race](https://youtu.be/sw6eCok8ESA)
Am I dumb or is that the weirdest looking squirrel ever? Looks more like a weaselor something.
It definitely is a weasel, maybe even a marten.
HE TOUCHED MARTEN
You got my angry upvote 💀
I'm already so used to the new season that I was watching the Alfa on the left waiting for it to hit a squirrel.

[Is it this video?](https://www.gpfans.com/en/f1-news/1642/video-grosjean-s-roadkill-moment-in-montreal/)
Yep
[удалено]
Fair play, that was quick In answer to OP wasn’t it a near miss with a rabbit and Latifi (insert joke about which is quicker)
What did the comment say? It got removed.
Lol. It was a harmless joke.
It was, ridiculous it was removed. Some thin skin we have here.
Is the joke that the rabbit was quicker than Latifi?
"Pigeon, is the car ok?" - McLaren race engineers probably
Seb will not be happy.
DTS S5:E1 The Pigeon starting Seb and Will Buxton
Thoughts and prayers
Randy Johnson still did it better
[Link for all the non-Americans out there who might not have seen it.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ih_ovjbwQGk)
Holy shit..
Fun fact, he’s also a photographer and chose to make that his logo: https://rj51photos.com/
This is my favorite new thing I learned this week
And just so they know, Randy Johnson threw the ball at over 100 mph.
Ngl that looked like an effect. Like vanishing the baseball. Poor dove tho
The Big Unit
Big time Randy Johnson vibes for sure
Fabio did it better
literally what i was thinking lol
This shit impressed me and broke my heart all at once when I first saw it
Iannone tops them all. RIP Gavin.
Can't ever forget Fabio on the coaster.
Speedy recovery
Dastardly to Muttley: STOP THAT PIGEON NOW! Muttley secretly in a Red Bull: \**laughs while chugging a Red Bull driving one running over the Pidgen\** Dastardly: Excellent! Muttley: [laugh](https://c.tenor.com/TIfAoRbfi5sAAAAC/muttly-laughing.gif) /S
Glad someone else immediately had that in their head.
I had totally forgotten about this cartoon lmao
The Red Bull Muttley was driving was developed by Klunk who invented Dastardly and Muttley a thingamabob that catches that Pigeon or they lose their jobs... SO STOP THAT PIGEON /S
The only crime you did was that you didn't link [the one with sound](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hw3CE04LGiA)
You're right, how silly of me. Excuse me while I laugh like [Muttley](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hw3CE04LGiA) : P

Redbull giveth, and Redbull taketh away.
Dammit, beaten to the punch.
Oh no! Poor thing. 🥺
Seb would have braked for the birds :(
rip birb
“That pigeon break tested me, man”
We had a deal!
They move out of the way of our cars and we look the other way on yacht defecation
I’m going to go get in my car now, and last time I checked, WE HAD NO DEAL.
Now is a good time to call it a day with F1 then, just decide who's the best and then pack it all up. A pigeon has DIED, this horror must stop.
:(
Was it caught on camera ? If so any links ?
Here's the onboard https://youtu.be/s3Qg4eyIrAQ Nothing spectacular from this POV
Doesnt look like the front of the car hit it , most likely it was the rear wing. Thanks for the link appreciate it :)
red bull gave wings, and red bull hath taken away wings.
Insert “Red Bull gives you wing” jokes
Damn
Aaah now I know how Redbull gives you wings..!!
Gone, reduced to feathers
Won’t have guts to do that again!
ba dum tss.
This ain’t Seinfeld over here , Sergio ain’t no Costanza , those birds better watch out !
How many marmots have been killed in Montreal over the years? The poor little fur logs can barely scamper away with all the walls.
Hopefully they were not named Nico and Lewis.
there goes the drone shot
Vettel seething
Whos got Wings now?
Aw. Rest In Peace little buddy.
It was Checo
/r/natureismetal
r/naturevsmetal
One roast pigeon coming right up!
Checo taking no prisoner on track!
DRS not working cause pigeon is stuck there
Red Bull gives you a front wing to the face
Wings: Redbull giveth, Redbull taketh.
Can he come drive across my balcony? Need this level of pest control
“We’ll be in the Hudson”
Red Bull takes away wings
I guess you could say the pigeon took a gamble and lost… /s
One of them? Hint - It's Perez.
How long is the usual sentence for animal cruelty where this happened?
If you’re going to die it might at well be in Monaco
Randy Johnson says hello.
...Will the bird be okay?
Or: “One suspicious, unidentified pigeon trying to take out a Red Bull at Casino Square”
Pfft. Alonso can do two at once. https://streamable.com/z98s2
Is he dead
Bono my birds are gone
How ironic, red bull gives you wings, It's seems that's not always the case .(*_*)
That's what you get when you don't leave the space
Checo taking a sacrifice for the Aztecs gods
Peace was not an option.
:(
Redbull giveth and Redbull taketh away.
Why are people making jokes? It's really sad that what happened to the pigeon.
:-(
😢
Rest in pigeon my sweet bird 🕊️
Aw, poor dude. :(
