Good lads!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Piastri listed off the photos that he had chosen to include, which were his first win, his first season in cars, his first podium in F1 and &#8220;getting sprayed by the GOAT.&#8221; Norris said, &#8220;Oh, you&#8217;ve got a picture of me in it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Piastri bluntly responded, &#8220;No,&#8221; but failed to reveal who he was referring to as the greatest of all time. The duo&#8217;s sense of humour came through again when the Australian driver said, &#8220;My best team-mate in F1,&#8221; to which Norris said, &#8220;I&#8217;m the only team-mate you&#8217;ve had, you prat!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So best by default,&#8221; Piastri added with a laugh.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I love him and his constant state of emotional neutrality,&#8221; one fan commented about Piastri, while another likened the 25-year-old to Steve Carell&#8217;s famous Michael Scott character from The Office. &#8220;Oscar is Michael Scott irl, and he knows it,&#8221; they posted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;You prat&#8217; is one of the most affectionate things you can call a mate,&#8221; someone else posted.<\/p>\n<p>Further reactions included: &#8220;These two are just really lovable,&#8221; &#8220;McLaren may not be top of the constructors&#8217; table this year but is continuously top of the vibes table thanks to these two,&#8221; and &#8220;From the whole Carlando thing and now his friendship with Oscar, Lando seems like a pretty chill and fun guy. Also good on him for using the word prat, don&#8217;t hear enough of that these days.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>            We want your opinion!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mt-auto\">What would you like to see on Motorsport.com?<\/p>\n<p>            <a href=\"#\" class=\"ms-link text-link font-bold\">Take our 5 minute survey.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mt-1 text-body\">&#8211; The Motorsport.com Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Formula 1 fans have praised the McLaren team dynamic after the Woking outfit shared a fun video of&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":108613,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[441],"tags":[45812,49,48,578,576,577,591,590,270161,592,45813,82,4962],"class_list":["post-757359","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-formula-1","tag-austrian-gp","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-f1","tag-formula-1","tag-formula1","tag-lando-norris","tag-mclaren","tag-mclaren-f1-fans-praise-lovable-lando-norris-and-oscar-piastri-after-viral-video","tag-oscar-piastri","tag-red-bull-ring","tag-sports","tag-trendingteam"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/757359","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=757359"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/757359\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/108613"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=757359"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=757359"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=757359"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
