Finnish racing driver Valtteri Bottas has become an unexpected hit on Instagram after appearing in a series of humorous clips alongside TikTokker Lachy Mcintyre, better known as Lachy Mac.
The TikTok star usually posts situational skits, POV humour, celebrity impressions, and pop culture commentary with his trademark dry Aussie wit, which seems to blend well with Valtteri Bottas.
The Judge reported today that Bottas has ‘for now’ exited Formula One after a vote of no confidence by the Audi masters who control the Kick Sauber team. Both he and teammate Zhou Guangu were given their marching orders as the German team chose Nico Hulkenberg and Ferrari academy driver current F2 champion Gabriel Bortoleto as their driver lineup for the coming season.
With rookie Kimi Antonelli replacing the seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes, there is always the chance the young Italian will implode and Bottas would again be afforded another full-time drive.
But until then, Bottas and Lachy Mac seem to be becoming quite the meme team. Check out some of their videos:
We just can’t see the other Fin, Kimi Raikkonen, ever doing something like this, but with his ‘golden mullet’, Bottas is more Australian than Hugh Jackman.
If the F1 thing doesn’t work out, he could always become a social media comedian.
