“Noice!” The ordinarily pulse-pounding atmosphere of the Hungarian GP was infused with a surprising dose of humor and charisma, thanks to a guest appearance from an unexpected “yogurt-loving” Sergeant. Enter Terry Crews, famed for his portrayal of the weight-lifting whiz Sergeant Terry Jeffords from “Brooklyn 99”. Stepping out of his popular, fictional precinct and into the high-stakes, high-speed world of F1, Crews left Max Verstappen & Co. with dropped jaws and wide grins, thanks to his remarkable show of reflexes.
The Hungarian GP, a stage known for drama and speed, witnessed a moment of surprise when Terry Crews, a guest at the Red Bull garage, was put to a demanding pre-race drill by a crew member. The drill is a part of the training designed to improve and test the racers’ reflexes – a crucial element in a sport where victories and defeats can be decided in fractions of a second. The reflexes and coordination significantly contribute to the overall performance of the driver. And we know Terry doesn’t like to lose.

And yet, it was Terry Crews who stole the show. In a video posted by Red Bull Racing on Instagram, Crews is seen effortlessly nailing the demanding ball-catching test, showcasing reflexes that could put some of the F1 drivers to shame. Red Bull, with a tongue-in-cheek playfulness, captioned the clip, “Fun fact, Terry Crews is a legend”. Crews, basking in the camaraderie and the thrill of his first F1 experience, responded, “Love you guys! Thank you for having me at my first @f1 race!”
And just like Sergeant Jeffords’ “Nine-nine!” Crews proved that he is much more than just muscles and giggles – he’s got some serious game too.
