A GP2 Engine, GP2! post.
The work laptop takes six minutes to open a PDF while the client watches on the shared screen. You say "it's just thinking". It is not thinking. The hotel promises complimentary high-speed internet. One email, forty seconds, and the attachment is a single photo of a cat. Leg day was Tuesday. It's Thursday, and you've just been overtaken on the stairs by a pensioner carrying two bags of shopping. Your 2019 phone opens the camera. By the time it's ready, the sunset, the dog and the moment have all gone home. **How it came about:** at the 2015 Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka, Fernando Alonso's McLaren-Honda was passed down the straight like it was parked, and he shouted "GP2 engine! GP2! Argh!" over the radio - at Honda's home race, in front of Honda's bosses. GP2 was the junior series below Formula 1. The broadcast aired it, and within hours fans were stamping "GP2 engine" on anything slow. **Why it caught on:** McLaren-Honda was sold as the return of the Senna-era dream team and turned out to be the slowest engine on the grid, and Alonso - a two-time champion - said what everyone watching was thinking, out loud, at the worst possible place to say it.
