As Grosjean and Magnussen are keen to crash each other on a race track Grosjean takes it to an another level to beat Magnussen.

Grosjean to himself: Ok I was told to jump right into the car seat but some how I ended up on the other side so I am going to try to get back inside by putting my left leg in first then my second leg in, then push myself into the car seat. Hopefully I won’t get lost inside or this gig will be bad for me.

While the idea of himself climbing into a Nascar seemed sort of reminiscent of a confectionery advert from Romain’s childhood involving a young lad jumping onto a pony, Haas’s marketing gurus cast cold water on it, and said it was passe.
