The FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) is far from the first motor racing series to jump onboard the mannequin challenge wagon, but it was the first one to do it live.

Just moments before the series’ final race of the season in Qatar, teams on the grid, workers in the TV compound, and a large crowd of people eating lunch in a hospitality suite all froze to give the appearance that they were mannequins.

All in all, they did a really good job, until finally it was time to get back to work and make sure that everything was set to go for the race.
