The look on Bottas's face: er, no way I'm drinking that!
And post race, Bottas confirmed that he has never done a shoey and won't be in the future. Good man - it's a disgusting idea.
not that i am any less disgusted by it - it's disgusting enough that the driver does it himself, but to have other drivers and team members do it is absolutely worse ( i don't even think i'd ever be allowed to kiss my wife again if i did such a thing ), a genuine question though: regarding the driver's socks being of the finest and most advanced material in the entire world, and being above all extremely fire-resistant - is it actually even possible, or likely, that the driver's sweat would even penetrate the socks? i would be inclined to think - perhaps completely wrong - that concidering that fire / heat should not penetrate through the driver's socks, wouldn't that then also mean that it's unlikely that sweat comes through?
also, i assume that given the driver's outworldly athletic conditions, they tend to sweat a lot less than general public - wouldn't that thus also make it possible,
that neither sweat, nor smell actually enters the driver's shoe - and would that perhaps even mean that the driver's shoe is 'like new'?
in other words, is it not rather similar to just pouring champagne into a new cloth and drinking from that?
and that it's more a case of being disgusted by the idea rather than actualy fact?
curious about this - has this actually been discussed before?
