I don't mean to be a hater or anything but I personally hate the style of article that's like a pretend interview with a silly enthusiastic naif and F1.com do it all the time
A couple of paragraphs of a F1.com explainer interview. The key parts are the "questions" which are "right then. Talk to me. What's the Barcelona Shakedown?" and "Ok you've got me hooked. Tell me more..." Full transcript of image below: Right, then. Talk to me. What's the Barcelona Shakedown? It's an opportunity for teams to run their car without limitations like a maximum of 200km of running on promotional tvres that is permitted during filming days, so they can start checking parts on the new machines work as expected OK, you've got me hooked. Tell me more.. Well, firstly - this is a first chance to stress-test their race machines in real life rather than in the world of simulation. If thev have already done a shakedown, that would have focused on system checks and to make sure a car that has been bolted together for the first time does what they thought it would do.

I'm pretty sure that's the new Audi rotating on track. It seems to be at 220°. It's literally stewing in its own juices

Truly it was this
The modified oh no comics meme where people are excluded from a large group, so form their own small group but then the large group feels excluded so muscles in to the small group and tells them they don't fit in

Gonna be honest I think I cursed Piastri with this image
Edited photo of Oscar Piastri in his full race kit. His head is larger and his smile is exaggerated. Also he's holding a giant spoon with Norris's fave reflected in it.

Ah, I see, I see.
Doctored screen shot of RaceFans article. There is a photo of Leclerc and the real headline "Vasseur explains why Ferrari didn't use Hamilton to give Leclerc a tow" and then the fake text underneath "we are a bunch of clowns,"said Vasseur. "Just an absolute parade of chumps."

This kind of thing is what I mean. Hamilton was also a bit frustrated.
The stewards ruled Hamilton did not slow down as much as other drivers who saw the same warning. But Vasseur said it was not clear by how much he needed to slow down. “The frustration with the decision came because [although] you have to slow down, yes, it’s subjective,” he said. “It’s not black or white. It’s not ‘you have to be at the pit lane.’ It’s someone deciding if you slowed enough or not and depending on the person making the decision, it will be different. “But it is what it is. We decided to focus on the weekend and not lose energy on other projects.”

Indeed
