Jenson Button's awkward reaction to Sky colleague Danica Patrick's Formula 1 analysis at the United States Grand Prix has gone viral.
The 2009 F1 world champion has been working as a pundit for Sky since 2018, offering analysis across Grand Prix weekends.
However, he caught attention from fans for his reactions to Patrick, the former NASCAR and IndyCar driver, while they analysed the race in Texas.
The pair were discussing Kimi Antonelli's crash with Carlos Sainz.

Button said: “It looked like Sainz went for a move that was late. He realised that it was too late and that Kimi had turned in.
"He tried to brake out of it, locked up and that’s what drove him into the side of Kimi.”
Patrick responded: "Not the best spot to go.
"When you make a move in an unusual place, then you get an unusual result.”

As she spoke, Button turned towards the camera and smiled.
Although Patrick is unlikely to have noticed, eagle-eyed fans quickly spotted his reaction.
One fan wrote: "Him being unable to hide how much he doesn't like her makes me laugh every time."

While another added: "Jenson Button can't even hide it anymore."
It's not the first time viewers have noticed the 15-time Grand Prix winner making faces while Patrick is speaking.
At the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix, Button made eye contact with the camera and smirked, for which he similarly received attention online.
The pair have known each other for nearly 30 years, having formed a friendship during the early stages of their racing careers.

Patrick has previously spoken about meeting the Briton while she was younger.
She said: "I met Lewis Hamilton at Jenson's 21st birthday party.
"By which time Jenson was already an F1 driver. We were a brat pack of friends, he and a few other drivers. Button's a nice guy.

"I was happy to see him win last year."
Patrick received criticism earlier this year from fans for her comments about Lando Norris following his second-place finish at the Miami Grand Prix.
Despite dropping to sixth on the opening lap, the Briton recovered to finish behind his teammate Oscar Piastri.
After hearing Norris speak to the media following the race, she said: "I sense a bit of confidence out of him, there wasn't a lot of negative talk, he was just like 'It is what it is'.
"But also, he knows that it's not all there, it's not perfect, the car is not perfect. Things aren't perfect, but still he has a 1st, three 2nds, a 3rd and a 4th."
Fans were divided on social media, with some critical of her remark about the car being 'imperfect' citing McLaren's convincing one-two as proof.
Others defended Patrick, suggesting that Norris had been unable to find his best performance in the car.
