Roundup of the best reactions to England’s first major tournament victory over Germany in 55 years at Euro 2020.ย

Haas’ German driver – Mick Schumacher marked the occasion with a barbecue which didn’t exactly go to plan as he found himself on the losing side, much to the pleasure of various members of his team despite taking it in excellent spirit.
I feel your pain Mick ๐๐ญ

Aston Martin meanwhile boasts a four-time German champion in Sebastian Vettel yet looked more excited about the free booze from their sponsor – Peroni Libera whilst watching the match, which originates from Italy yet ironically is actually in the other half of the draw.
Close battles.
Old rivalries.
Matches to remember.
England vs Germany.Or Lance vs Seb.
No allegiances here.Everyone’s a winner.
Not a biased post in sight.
Grab a Peroni Libera 0.0%
Load up on the snacks.
And cheer on these great heroes.
Now in the spotlight.
Don’t miss it.โ Aston Martin Cognizant F1 Team (@AstonMartinF1) June 29, 2021
