Jarno: “At least with these spider-powers I’ll be able to cope with any kind of power steering…”

“Jarno, just wear the damm thing, keep quiet, and keep smiling – there’s a few quid in it for both of us!”

Trulli: Flavio look, I’m Spiderman
Briatore: I know. You’re hanging by a single thread

“We have got to talk about all these fashion faux pas.”
“What do you mean, Jarno?”

@formula-1
Thank you. I was trying to look beyond the obvious jokes about Spiderman and Flavio Briatore. I find that if you’re smirking when you’re writing the punchline, the joke probably isn’t as funny as you think it is. The trick is to take your time and find something in the picture that you can work with. It’s a little anarchronistic to talk about Caterham in a picture from around eight years ago, but I think it’s a small price to pay, and it stands out in a sea of Spiderman jokes. I tried to do it in the first caption contest, and when the obvious punchline was about cutting ribbons or hair, I managed to get away with rock-paper-scissors jokes and punchlines about topiary. Unfortunately, these were my best jokes; I haven’t done anything good since.

Yes but the cheesiness made it good. :)

I don’t always agree with you, but you think more than me, I’ll give you that.

the explanation ruined the quality of the joke…

Agreed.

Can you stop wining about my Trulli train superpower?

I would’ve put whining, but then again, he has his own vineyard and loves a good wine…

Briatore: “You look like an idiot”.
