Haas teammates Esteban Ocon and Ollie Berman recently took part in the Hot Ones Versus challenge. In a hilarious episode of the popular YouTube show, the two Formula 1 drivers had to answer tough questions to avoid eating a spicy chicken wing.
Questions included ranking current and former teammates, determining which current drivers are most likely to retire at the end of the season, and Ocon's on-camera statement that "NASCAR is better than Formula One.".
The two drivers also put their friendship to the test by racing on a Scalextric track and determining Formula 1 track configurations by touch while blindfolded.
Fans quickly reacted to the video on social media. "This was fantastic. The current generation of young drivers is amazing. Lots of talent and great personalities," one wrote on Reddit, while another added on YouTube: "First Valtteri and Checo, now Olli and Esti Besti? I hope this becomes a theme and we get all 11 teams!"«
«"It's so calm at the Haas team that people are making up all sorts of drama. These two get along so well," someone else wrote, while another commented, "The best part of this video is when Ocon says Alpin is the worst and Ollie almost chokes.".
Other comments included: "The way Esteban almost got eliminated on the first flank was so typical of him," "I swear these two do every possible side mission. I love it!" and "I didn't know I needed Formula 1 on Hot Ones until I saw this, hahaha, I love it!"«
Berman has had a strong start to the 2026 season. He currently sits ninth in the drivers' standings with 18 points, while Ocon is 16th with just one. This leaves Haas seventh in the constructors' standings, just two points behind sixth-placed Racing Bulls and 12 ahead of Williams.
