Okay you have me invested into this Indian gp incident. *perhaps I should apologise for how obsessively I am about to analyse the gifset *
I get the mystery, the appeal. I get Jenson hiding the pass photo. What I don't get is why was seb hiding the photo!?! For all events and purposes he arrived first, is using his own card. He raised the suspicion when he hid his!
May I present the key (in my humble not-so-informed-on-sebson opinion) is why did Seb hide the photo? Option a) its actually seb who either left his card at jenson's room or something which Jenson used as his cheeky way to return it cause why carry two cards in his hand. And the card seb used was his old torro rosso backup???? (At this point I am questioning if I make sense and why am I so invested)
Wait oh nooo I forgot option B!! Ahhh I will get back to you on that. Jenson pranking seb and hiding his card? I realise all my theories revolve around seb being the one using the backup. Cause why else would he be hiding his own photo!?!? Damn I see why this is a whole lore.
Sucks you right in.
anon do not apologize because this is sebson dot tumblr dot com. we analyze sebson here. but yes, the mystery of the incident is very much the draw to it. once you start pulling on that string, you just keep going. much to unpack here.
my biggest questions, comments and concerns are about exactly what you brought up: why did seb cover up his picture when it is literally a picture of him? i mean come on let's fact it. jenson covering up seb's picture is a little confusing but no mystery there. he somehow gets the pass and when he goes to swipe it, it's obviously not him so he covers it up. if seb had jenson's pass and covered it up? same deal. all good fun but no real mystery. they swapped passes and off they go.
but, the name says sebastian vettel and the picture shows the man himself. why cover that up? it's also a very official picture of seb where as the pass that jenson scanned uses a somewhat less official pictures (that i even swear i've seen before) i don't know. i'm just saying that i agree. the mystery is in the fact that seb covered up his own ID picture.
#if we have any long time listeners that want to be first time callers then chime off! drop a line and we'll get ya over here#we're spinning the tunes at radio SBSN all day and night long. always love a good theory.#i will say i'm like...99% sure the drivers get issued a new paddock pass each season. i'm sure they've got to deactivate the old ones#also this reminds me ....in recent years there was definitely a driver that couldn't get into the paddock for some reason#who was that again and why couldn't they get in? because security is tight but not that tight#idk maybe it was different in 2011 that jenson was able to walk right into the paddock with a different face and name on the ID than his#when recently a driver definitely couldn't get in because they either forgot theirs or something.#anon#answered

I am intrigued. What *is* the Indian gp paddock pass incident? Tell me tell me tell me please
- A sewis ready to be a sewis/sebson
in 2011 sebson was off the charts for unknown reasons. however, there is one event to rule them all: the 2011 indian gp paddock pass incident.
the gist is that these two show up early in the morning to the paddock and they swipe their paddock entry badges as one does. lo and behold there is a twist! seb swipes his badge. sebastian vettel's face pops up on the tiny screen and seb covers that. jenson swipes his badge. sebastian vettel's face pops up on the tiny screen and jenson covers that.
why? why is this the case? why does sebastian have two paddock passes? was this all some elaborate prank? if that's the case, why did both of them cover it up when they should've just gone "got ya!" towards the other? does sebastian lose his credentials that often that he needs two passes? if so, why does jenson have one of them? did jenson lose his credentials and needed to borrow one of sebastian's? if so, why (again) does sebastian have two passes? the picture of seb that appears when jenson swipes the badge looks like a younger sebastian. is that an old pass? if so, why is it still active? why is the incident erased from the internet (as far as i can tell) so that only gifsets and oral history remains? why did no one question this incident enough to get a documented interaction with said incident that would be immortal on the internet?
all of these questions and more remain connected to this incident. the best i can leave you with is that one day answers will be firm in history and confirmed by historians. but until then, this incident will remain mostly a mystery as to how it started and how it unfolded.
i leave you with a gifset. see the incident for yourself.
#tbf i have no idea on f1 paddock procedures so the easy answer could just be jenson lost his pass and seb had an extra#because of course he did! seb is prepared.#but literally! that's kinda the whole point about all this is that no one can actually figure out why#legit though i've seen two separate sets where in one jenson shows up first and in the next seb shows up first#i choose to believe the route where jenson shows up first though#anyway hope that answered your question anon and if you have any more i'm always here to go insane over these two#anon#answered
