WATCH: Mark Webber Slams A Hall Of Fame Shoey From Daniel Ricciardo’s Boot

With a sage, knowing nod to the homies Luca Brasi and Dune Rats, we bring you this impeccable slice of Australiana.
‘Strayan Formula 1 wunderkind Daniel Ricciardo has been known to suck piss from his shoe whilst celebrating podium finishes, and last night’s Belgian Grand Prix was no exception.
In claiming a meritorious second place at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, Ricciardo once again reefed the plank from his right hoof and slurped the sparkling stuff out of it in the time-honoured, battle-weary tradition known as the humble shoey.
But because the presence of a shoey is known to attract other Australians in the vicinity, not at all unlike a threatened bee emitting pheromones to encourage others to swarm, in ambled former-F1 driver and current-TV presenter Mark Webber to congratulate Ricciardo by allowing him to gaze upon his granite-like jawline from up close.
Heeding the traditional Australian fanfare of “Oi nah just fucken do a shoey, ayyy!” Webber too decided to drink from the sweaty receptacle, which by virtue of the action counts as a reconfirmation of citizenship.

As is custom in this day and age, the event was observed by both parties on social media, congratulating one another for their… ahem… feets.

And now, we observe the traditional song of our people:

HERE’S TO POTSIE, HE’S TRUE BLUE.
HE’S A PISSPOT THROUGH AND THROUGH.
HE’S A BASTARD SO THEY SAY.
HE TRIED TO GET TO HEAVEN BUT HE WENT THE OTHER WAY!
DRINK IT DOWN.

DOWN.

DOWN.

DOWN.

DOWN.
