Dan Ticktum spotted playing Metaphor on his mobile phone
Formula E has revealed how Cupra Kiro driver Dan Ticktum keeps himself entertained during race delays. A video shows Ticktum sitting in the car while waiting for the race to start and killing time by playing a game on his mobile phone. The video hints that someone, probably Oliver Rowland, was heard saying, 'Is he playing Call of Duty? Haha hahaha legend.'
Ticktum himself revealed in the comments section that he was playing Metaphor.
A fan commented on the video, 'Genuinely cool team for letting him do that. This is how you keep a driver happy.' Ticktum responded to the fan, saying, 'Absolutely.' When another asked, 'Is that Metaphor?' Ticktum replied, 'Yes lol.'
A fan wrote, 'Bro I think he got a little bit distracted.' Another said, 'Classic tickboom.' One more said, 'Dan is bored and bored is dan.
This is the most ticktum thing to ever happened.' A fan agreed with Ticktum, saying, 'gotta keep entertained mate.' A comment also read: 'He can give you a million excuses for why F1 never worked out for him. But this video is a reason.'
Dan Ticktum also made headlines recently for responding to George Russell's remark when the Mercedes driver hinted at him for being the only one who deliberately hit a co-participant in a race. Ticktum said in a recorded message, 'Number one, thank you for the free publicity. We'll take that any day of the week. And two, while what Max did today was a little bit sceptical, to be likened to him at any point in my career is a positive if you ask me.
Goodbye."

Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon's relationship reportedly on the rocks — insiders say it's not looking good
Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon made quite an impression on the red carpet at the "F1" premiere in New York, but body language expert Judi James believes all is not well. Their contrasting styles and awkward gestures point to deeper tensions and a growing lack of synchronicity. Is Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon's relationship on the rocks? The pair, who have been dating since 2022, looked effortlessly stylish at Pitt's new movie F1's New York City premiere. They smiled for the cameras, held hands, and posed as a couple in love, but not everyone is convinced. With whispers of tension and awkward gestures on the red carpet, speculation about their relationship grows. Judi James, a body language expert, contrasted their appearance with that of George and Amal Clooney, describing their fashion sense as having a "George and Amal-looking vibe." According to the body language expert, Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon's relationship is reportedly in trouble, with the couple "floundering" and displaying deeper issues. Live Events ALSO READ: Jennifer Garner may soon join Hollywood's billionaire club — here's how she's doing it According to James, both men exhibit signs of a more reserved demeanor when their women are present, as if their intelligence is what keeps them in awe and reverence, as per a report by Radar Online. ALSO READ: Iran earthquake: A 5.1 magnitude earthquake hits Semnan, Iran, amid rising tensions with Israel Brad Pitt's significant age difference also appears to have caused some wardrobe stumbling, which may be a reflection of his emotional style. It may be better for his relationship if he finally bottoms out, finds his true place, and relaxes into it with someone who values it. His recent outings have included some questionable fashion choices that imply he may be struggling with the age gap and eager to look current and edgy. Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon were spotted holding hands on the red carpet at the "F1" premiere in New York City. They posed for a few romantic pictures and grinned for the cameras. Reports indicated that their relationship might be having problems, even though they had PDA-filled moments. What do their styles say about their connection? The Oscar winner wore a buttoned white shirt and a double-padded navy blue suit to the premiere. In contrast, his girlfriend looked stunning wearing a long skirt, a black belt, and a halter-neck top with a flowing sheer finish. The pair's "lack of synchronicity" suggests that their thought and taste processes are very different. Their strikingly different ways of thinking are demonstrated by the stark contrast in their red carpet facial expressions. Brad's posture and gestures appear unusually awkward, as if he's trying to look gauche rather than like a Hollywood hard-hitter. His eyebrows are steepled, giving him a rather subdued and apologetic look, as per a report by Reality Tea. FAQs Are Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon breaking up? Although body language suggests tension, there has been no official confirmation. Why are experts concerned? Their opposing styles and awkward gestures have sparked speculation about more serious issues.
