Formula 1 fans have lost it over a hilarious hidden camera prank video shared by Red Bull of four-time champion Max\u00a0Verstappen<\/a> and his team-mate Isack Hadjar<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The footage, filmed at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, features Verstappen directing Hadjar and a ‘trainee’ receptionist, comedian Mr Red, via an earpiece to confuse unsuspecting hotel guests.<\/p>\n

Operating from a back room, Verstappen fed a series of instructions to Mr Red. Guests checking in were told a full-size guitar served as their room key, while others were handed hundreds of complimentary shower caps. The Dutchman also instructed Mr Red to present a cardboard cutout of himself to female guests, prompting the comedian to ask if they thought Verstappen was “cute”.<\/p>\n

Hadjar then had a go at directing Mr Red, first asking him to find out whether the guest knew Verstappen, before telling him to laugh as loudly as he could at whatever the guest said next.<\/p>\n

The French-Algerian driver then made his way to the front desk to take Mr Red’s place, where Verstappen instructed him. Amazingly, Hadjar managed to keep a straight face while holding guests’ hands, demonstrating how shower caps work, playing the guitar while screaming, randomly clapping and doing a workout warm-up.<\/p>\n

“How Hadjar didn\u2019t laugh while doing this is crazy lol dude is locked in,” one fan commented on Reddit, while another added: “Hadjar looked so comfortable doing this lmao.”<\/p>\n

“Max asking multiple people if they think his cardboard cutout is cute lol,” read another comment, and someone else posted: “I think Isack could do SNL, hopefully he can win a few races and get famous enough that they’d have him as a guest.”<\/p>\n

Further comments included: “Honestly impressive how Isack managed to go through all that without cracking up a single time,” and “This was hilarious.”<\/p>\n
