    Stefano Domenicali, from behind Massa: “Bernie’s going to punch you!!!!!”
    Felipe: “No, he won’t”
    Stefano: “Just look at his hands, can’t you see what he’s going to do?”
    Felipe: ” Nope. Besides, he’s got a…….”

    The picture was taken, and then……

    Bernie: “I’VE GOT A CRAMP!!!!!!!!!!”

  20. And Felipe, this is how I beat the Concorde Agreement out of them. Works for Race Organizers too you know.

  21. Bernie: “Hey guess what? Fernando is faster than you.”
    Felipe: “Yeah, that’s getting old now”

  22. massa: who will i race for after ferrari?
    bernie: indy like Rubens if you still want to be paid to drive. the ferrari no2 route.

  23. Felipe: “We’re not as quick as the Red Bull and the Lotus.”
    Bernie: “Don’t worry, I’ve ‘had a look’ at their cars”

  24. “Hey Felipe! Fernando is beating you so bad, I reckon an old man like me can probably give you a run for your money. Wanna go?!”

  25. FM: “Come on, I’m not saying your old or anything Bernie, but you couldn’t do a better job than me.”

  26. Bernie ‘understands message’ and punches himself in the chin.

  27. Bernie: ” I answered the phone, It was Max asking if you could be HIS whipping boy, after Ferrari had finished with you?”

    Massa : I could take up Gerhard Gribkowsky’s position after my Ferrari career !! I could still earn more than what I get here….eh ?

  31. Massa: Come closer, I want to look taller
    Bernie: #&$% you!

    1. I literary bursted into laughter when I read this one! :) And it was 2:20am! Must have scared family members. :)

      This is the first caption I’ve seen that actually checks all 3 most important boxes:
      1. it fits Felipe’s pose
      2. it fits Bernie’s pose
      3. it’s FUNNY! :)

  32. You were supposed to spin off like usual felipe!

  33. “It’s done. It’s going to happen.”
    “I stay for another year with Ferrari?”
    “No, you’ve won a Brucie bonus!”

    Bernie: Don’t call me short again.. Or I’ll punch you.. Shortie..

  35. Here, let me help you keep your chin up.

  36. The last guy that touched me like that ran off with my watch. Back off bru!

  37. Bernie: You really want to know the secret to beating Fernando? Pretty simple…

  38. Massa: No Bernie, not beat up Fernando, just beat.

  39. Bernie: “You want me to fix the race? I’ll do this to Fernando!”

  40. Bernie: wait your titanium plate in your skull aint sitting right, let me fix that.

  41. Putt your hand somewhere else !

    (We could also have for Bernie : You know who I am ? choose the right tone to say it ^^ )

  42. “Say it again, and I’ll show you WHO is the pre-retired dwarf here”

  43. Massa:

    yo Bernie, you’ve got a lot of money stashed somewhere, right? Lets start a team together, because no one with offer me a drive for next year!

    Bernie: Well Felipe, i’ll stick this thing here somewhere where the sun doesn’t shine before I throw my money away like that! If you want to drive for ME, I will ask you for a hosting-fee!

  44. a different option:

    Bernie: I am F1’s puppetmaster! I pull all the strings! But in your case Felipe, i’m willing to make you handpuppet!

  45. Thanks, but I won’t need Brazilian ju jitsu in jail, I’ll buy them off or hit them in the knee caps like this.

  46. F.M. “I thought we had an arrangement in Brazil?”
    B.E. “Look, I didn’t get a chance to talk to Timo Glock, but next time I see him it’ll be this…”

  47. Bernie: And then she told me “I want half of your money!”
    Massa: No way, than what?!
    Bernie: I told her “Up yours b*tch”!

  48. Bernie- And this Felipe is how you show Rob Smedley how its done

    Massa- But Bernie it’s Stefano and Luca I’m after!

  49. Bernie: If they try to fire you, I’ll clobber them!

  50. Felipe, it’s about time we both retired. Me as a promoter, and you as a number two driver. Come and live with me. We’ll go to a sunny place where the German Courts can not extradite me from.

  51. FM: Stop hitting yourself! You just wanted to do Flavio a favor… You couldn’t possibly know that it would be such a bore fest here.
    BE: At least I’ve taken care of that this year. And next year they’ll probably be alternatingthe race with Barcelona.

  52. Massa: C’mon Bernie, i can’t beat Alonso but i can still beat you.

  53. Felipe, I told you. You have to drive really badly so Fernando looks awesome. Don’t worry, Ill make sure you stay at Ferrari. Do it, otherwise I will punch you like this!

  54. Massa: “Bernie, I know you’re getting on a little bit, but did you know someone’s stolen your umbrella ??”

  55. B: knock-knock
    M: who’s there?
    B: everybody
    M: everybody who?
    B: everybody is faster than Massa

  56. Do you know how frustrating it is to take the whole F1 in your hands and you just can’t release it?!

  57. If you let me ounch you, yo can stay at Ferrari…. maybe

    Bernie: “Felipe, you stole my watch didn’t you! give it back!”

    “How about following the trend & starting Brabham back up Bernie? I could do with a drive for next year”

  61. Bernie: “If you say ol’ man once more..”

  62. Bernie: “Leave my daughters alone or else..”

  63. Massa,. “Don’t worry Bernie. Relaaax,. We have cryogenics in Brazil,..You will God forever. “

  64. Bernie: Sorry Felipe but my fist is faster than you.
    Felipe: What di.. OUCH

  65. Bernie: This is what I’ll do if you don’t leave Ferrari at the end of the year.

  66. Felipe: So I heard Fabiana Flosi is 46 years younger than you. Why do you want to remarry at your age?
    Bernie: Do you want to race anymore or not?

  67. “BAM! Right there. And would you believe it? I convinced everyone it was a mugger and not my wife that slugged me.”

  68. Bernie: Felipe – How many times do I have to tell you this – You work for Ferrari – You ARE the number two driver

  69. “…and if the Germans try to arrest me I’ll go all Jason Bourne on them….” “You are insane, aren’t you?”

  70. Massa: Can you please ask Stefano Domenicali if I can stay just one more year!
    Bernie: I’lll show him a thing or two, Felipe!!!!

  71. Bernie: “I’ll hit hard you before the race even starts, then you won’t have to hit anything during the race”
    Filipe: “But Hitting things during the race is my favorite part”

  72. Massa:BERNIE!!!!Baby how are you?
    Bernie:If you say that one more time i will punch you.

  73. Massa: Bernie!! Baby!!!
    Bernie : STOP TOUCHING ME!!!!

  74. Massa: Hey dad.
    Bernie : %$^# off!!!

  75. Bernie: “Welcome to the has-been convention pal!”

  76. “Felipe, Bernie is stronger than you. Did you understand that message?”

  77. So Bernie — Me and Tamara have a bit of a thing going… She finds me just the right height, know what I mean? It’s getting serious, so…. ermmm…. how ’bout puttin’ in a good word for me at Ferrari, DAD???

  78. Ecclestone: I know you are getting better again. But remember santander doesn`t want you to beat Alonso…
    Massa: I know… money is more important than competition here… don`t worry…

  79. Ecclestone: I know you are getting better again. But remember santander doesn`t want you to beat Alonso…
    Massa: I know… money is more important than competition here… don`t worry…

  80. FM: oooo, so you’re still alive? :)
