'Can it seat more than one driver?' Twitter in fits over Nida Yasir's F1 query

While Twitterati had a field day, the primary focus should have been on how Yasir was unprepared for the show

Popular morning show host, Nida Yasir, has once again become the butt of jokes and trolling after a clip of an old interview recently went viral on social media. In 2016, Nida invited two NUST students who had invented their own Formula 1 racing car. Abdul Aleem and Mohammad Shariq Waqar had joined the host in hopes to shed light on their project but were left dumbfounded with Nida's questions.

In the said video which has been making rounds, the Naadaaniyan star can be seen asking the guests about how racecars really work. The host goes on to inquire whether the Formula cars can seat more than a single person. To which, Aleem responded, "Actually, it is a formula car. So only one person can sit." Nida then quipped, "Oh, so it's just a formula for now? Have you done an experiment on any car?"

The engineers were left baffled, however, without losing composure, responded, "No, it's a formula car. We've made one. It's a racecar." Nida then questioned, "So, does it drive as fast as a petrol car?" 

And thus, the trolling began.

Nida Yasir should stick to mayun, mehndi, make-up bla bla so that she could continue hosting shows guilt free for not using her brain in decades.

Nida Yasir showed us how much research these TV hosts do about their guests. Their main focus is to look good in front of the camera. Pretty sure these TV hosts dont even listen to what their guests are saying.

Some, however, spoke in Nida's favour and gave her the benefit of the doubt. 

To be honest, we all have such dumb moments in our lives at some point. The thing is even the dumbest moments of ours usually do not get recorded unlike Nida Yasir. Her only fault is to be unprepared for the show.#Pakistan #PANJSHIR

People making fun of Nida Yasir because she did not knew of formula car, is stupid.

Many things in life you get to know for first time, learning is subjective.

You did not knew that she doesn't know until she spoke, right?.

Stop bashing nida yasir ples. Bro it's hard to make a non car person understand car stuff. I'm damn sure many of us googled formula1 after her Interview went viral. So stop being so harsh HOTA HAI CHALTA HAI DUNIYA. NO ONE IS PERFECT. mazak ura k cool nhi lagty aap log bus kardo.

While learning is subjective, a veteran host like Nida Yasir shouldn't need reminding that researching about your guest is imperative. Whether it is an area of expertise or not, one should be aware enough to hold an informative discussion. If not done so, it really shows the lack of interest on the host's part.
