[00:00.000 -> 00:03.760] Toto has like a secret dog whistle or I don't know,
[00:03.760 -> 00:07.480] Botas whistle that we can call that he just, you know, whistles into.
[00:07.760 -> 00:11.080] And then Botas goes into this mind control mode where, you know,
[00:11.080 -> 00:12.920] Toto can just control him as he wants.
[00:13.080 -> 00:15.400] It's at a frequency where only Botas can hear.
[00:15.640 -> 00:16.480] Exactly.
[00:30.600 -> 00:36.160] Well, hello folks, welcome back to F1 Fan Fiction. I keep saying welcome back because I know you guys have been listening to us episode
[00:36.160 -> 00:37.520] after episode.
[00:37.520 -> 00:43.720] And before we go anywhere, thank you so much for listening to us.
[00:43.720 -> 00:47.800] It's it's the it's the unpluggedness that we've heard from you guys
[00:47.800 -> 00:50.300] that keeps bringing you back.
[00:50.300 -> 00:52.920] And we keep the show, yeah,
[00:52.920 -> 00:56.660] just about a banter between two friends as it was created.
[00:56.660 -> 00:59.880] This is F1 Fan Fiction.
[00:59.880 -> 01:01.000] We are your hosts.
[01:01.000 -> 01:02.200] I am Akash.
[01:02.200 -> 01:03.440] And I'm Saran.
[01:03.440 -> 01:11.800] And today, for the first time, the circus, the carnival travels to Florida, Miami.
[01:11.800 -> 01:16.560] It's more of a retirement home, if you ask me, having lived there and Sarang still is
[01:16.560 -> 01:17.560] in the US.
[01:17.560 -> 01:22.840] So it's more of a retirement place than a party place as many people know it.
[01:22.840 -> 01:26.800] But yeah, the carnival was in town i think just to reinstate how
[01:26.800 -> 01:31.840] much of a party this is they had to do it around hard rock cafe because everywhere else there'd be
[01:31.840 -> 01:39.120] like slow scooters driving with oldies on it and with that let's get into the race man
[01:40.080 -> 01:48.000] Sarang, Sarang take us away. Yeah i guess like this is pretty much going to be the theme of the season, I guess, which is,
[01:49.360 -> 01:57.040] you know, Ferrari versus Red Bull. And that's what we saw yesterday as well. And, man, I mean,
[01:57.040 -> 02:05.840] it was, I wouldn't say it was a very good race. It was somewhat dull at parts, but like we had a very exciting start and again, a very exciting end.
[02:06.320 -> 02:08.000] So all in all, not bad.
[02:08.000 -> 02:14.080] I love how like Leclerc and Max are so neck and neck.
[02:14.080 -> 02:19.760] I mean, of course the standings don't show it, but at least from the perspective of the races
[02:19.760 -> 02:22.960] that we have seen till now, it's been so close with them.
[02:22.960 -> 02:26.640] And this race again was really awesome. I personally
[02:26.640 -> 02:33.280] enjoyed their racing. What are your thoughts? No, no, no, this race was definitely bang on
[02:33.280 -> 02:40.080] at least for the one-two fight that we saw there. Overall I agree it was
[02:40.080 -> 02:45.400] it was somewhat of a dry race but like that turn 14 and 15 kept things
[02:45.400 -> 02:50.320] interesting. The chicane is quite bouncing, trying to launch people
[02:50.320 -> 02:56.900] of their cars again. For Ferrari versus Red Bull, I mean a good thing for
[02:56.900 -> 03:02.840] Ferrari was they had locked out front rows before the race start, first time
[03:02.840 -> 03:07.200] after I think like Mexico 2019. And
[03:07.200 -> 03:13.080] both these cars right like are well matched because the Red Bulls are faster
[03:13.080 -> 03:20.180] on the straights by a good 5 to 10 kmph versus the corner speeds and the slow
[03:20.180 -> 03:26.240] speeds are better on the Ferrari. So it's a good balance of competition that's
[03:26.240 -> 03:31.680] coming in into the sport at this point. And we did see that during the race where at least
[03:31.680 -> 03:38.120] during the start, Leclerc lunged ahead. And then somewhere down the track, Max was able
[03:38.120 -> 03:43.800] to take that position back. And then he was at it again. It was just a good turning.
[03:43.800 -> 03:49.040] But you know what, I want to interrupt you here a bit to get back to what you have mentioned a lot of times.
[03:49.040 -> 03:53.000] You know, Max being the king of starts. He had that kind of a start, right?
[03:53.000 -> 04:02.440] Like this time as well. He just like launched into the field and just that first turn overtake on science was just awesome.
[04:02.440 -> 04:09.360] I loved watching that. Yeah, science was totally surprised. Like he positioned himself so well with that,
[04:09.360 -> 04:15.200] with that shoot between the two Ferraris that science is like, probably where did this guy come from?
[04:16.720 -> 04:23.920] Yeah, it was pretty clean and yet very awesome. Like he was, you know, just sneaked by, oh, hello, bye, thank you.
[04:25.920 -> 04:26.240] awesome like he was just sneaked by oh hello bye thank you
[04:32.560 -> 04:38.040] fun to watch and of course like later on the way he like chased him he kept his pace and it's really interesting to see a more matured was happened right that's
[04:38.040 -> 04:43.120] what I that's what I'm getting out of this like I don't know what it is maybe
[04:43.120 -> 04:46.760] it's it's what like a lot of people have said, it's basically just
[04:46.760 -> 04:48.920] that the cars are now easier to follow.
[04:48.920 -> 04:54.000] So, uh, drivers have to take lesser risks to overtake as such, because you can
[04:54.000 -> 04:57.480] maintain your position without damaging your tires and I think that is what is
[04:57.480 -> 05:02.800] probably, you know, helping Westap in a bit to keep calm, I guess, uh, because.
[05:03.400 -> 05:06.760] Up until the last season pretty much if you if you
[05:06.760 -> 05:11.640] miss that shot that's it you know you have to then you basically the tire
[05:11.640 -> 05:15.920] damage that you took on till now to just stay behind the car kind of goes to
[05:15.920 -> 05:20.560] waste and I think that that has changed here now. Yeah true and we did see that
[05:20.560 -> 05:31.480] right like so so as soon as Max overook Leclerc, there was this time when Leclerc was following Max and he was in that DRS zone.
[05:31.480 -> 05:49.520] But we could just see, because of that following advantage had gone away, Leclerc was never able to catch up with Max. He was gone. Yeah, yeah, yeah, man. Though overall, I think this whole season
[05:49.520 -> 05:54.480] is basically just going to be these two lads battling it out.
[05:54.480 -> 06:09.440] You know what, I am gonna play, I don't know, like, I am not this Mercedes fan. But we did see a glimpse of, you know, Mercedes trying to poke itself into the competition.
[06:09.440 -> 06:13.640] Like, if you remember, like, race one, they are out in Q3.
[06:13.640 -> 06:17.960] They're not even in, like, Q1 and Q2's competing.
[06:17.960 -> 06:22.520] But this race, like, they locked up themselves at P4 and 5 or 5 and 6.
[06:22.520 -> 06:24.800] And they're trying to get in there.
[06:24.800 -> 06:26.480] So, I think like towards
[06:26.480 -> 06:30.320] the end of the season, we're still going to see some Mercedes battle, but yeah, you're right.
[06:30.320 -> 06:34.480] So far, it's going to be all about Mercedes, sorry, Ferrari versus Red Bull.
[06:36.240 -> 06:39.840] Well, what's happening with the second drivers here though? I think like,
[06:41.920 -> 06:47.000] signs for a change completed a race. I think he had kind of forgotten about it.
[06:47.000 -> 06:50.000] That's the interesting part too.
[06:50.000 -> 06:57.000] Because if you see, if you see, during the qualification, he was a tad bit faster than Leclerc.
[06:57.000 -> 07:00.000] He knew he was pushing hard. But then he just gave up on it.
[07:00.000 -> 07:08.240] He was like, I don't want to run into the wall again. And I don't want to cause any spin damage or stuff. I was like, yeah, I'll just finish P2. I'm fine with that.
[07:08.240 -> 07:14.160] I don't know, nervousness settling in whatever, but I'm glad that he at least finished this race.
[07:14.160 -> 07:19.120] He's on the podium. He's got a different look to himself too, like with those long hair.
[07:19.120 -> 07:21.920] It feels weird seeing him without the helmet.
[07:21.920 -> 07:26.880] Yeah, but all in all, I'm glad. I'm glad he's driving good and he's bouncing back.
[07:28.080 -> 07:34.000] Yeah, and I think it's quite interesting to see that both the second drivers are, you know, like
[07:34.000 -> 07:41.520] very up and close with the first drivers in the team in the sense that like Perez has become
[07:41.520 -> 07:51.040] quite comfortable. He's driving pretty well. Same with Sainz. They are pretty, I think, equally matched up as such in terms of both comfort in the
[07:51.040 -> 07:53.480] car and as well as the pace and the mistakes.
[07:53.480 -> 07:56.680] Perez has not made any mistakes actually.
[07:56.680 -> 07:59.040] He hasn't done any of those till now, right?
[07:59.040 -> 08:00.040] Surprisingly.
[08:00.040 -> 08:03.720] But I think Sainz obviously has the potential.
[08:03.720 -> 08:09.000] I think he was just a bit not too comfortable with the car yet.
[08:09.000 -> 08:13.000] But I'm sure he's going to perform well and they both are going to be neck and neck.
[08:13.000 -> 08:17.000] What's the points standings between them? Let me see.
[08:19.000 -> 08:21.000] Maybe a point here or two.
[08:29.840 -> 08:36.560] to 66. Paris is at 66 and Sainz at 53. That's quite interesting. And that's of course because Sainz did not complete two races. But Paris also didn't complete one.
[08:36.560 -> 08:39.800] But it's still it's still Nick and Nick. I'd call like Russell sitting between them at
[08:39.800 -> 08:45.320] P4 at 59. But I'd still call it Nick and Nick because until and unless like the
[08:45.320 -> 08:50.200] Mercs figure themselves out it's gonna be these two fighting out. Although I did
[08:50.200 -> 08:55.600] expect like a better result from Perez. I think he was having some sensor issue
[08:55.600 -> 09:02.760] yesterday. So he was on the radio saying he's got no power, he's got no power. But
[09:02.760 -> 09:05.440] and then the engineer said like there is power, what
[09:05.440 -> 09:10.960] are you saying, I don't see anything. But the most free man on the grid, Christian
[09:10.960 -> 09:18.840] Horner was on radio later saying that some sort of like sensor issue but the
[09:18.840 -> 09:28.680] car's performing great but Perez is 26.8 British horsepower as Brunel kept calling it under under
[09:28.680 -> 09:33.800] Really? Yeah, yeah, that's what he said. Did he say that? He said, he said. So yesterday commentary was on point
[09:33.800 -> 09:39.480] because like, who was with Brunel, I forget, but like he was saying horsepower
[09:39.480 -> 09:52.280] horsepower and then Brunel used to correct him like British horsepower yes oh man that's one thing I missed though right about F1 TV they have switched the commentary
[09:52.280 -> 10:00.900] now so I don't get Brunel anymore it's basically yeah I I used to hate the red button shit
[10:00.900 -> 10:12.320] that they used to do but somehow they had a charm they had a good you know way of conducting things and yeah I kind of miss that but yeah well
[10:14.480 -> 10:21.840] what about the next team McLaren I guess is that where we want to go next let's see
[10:23.600 -> 10:25.740] they were all over the place is what I would
[10:25.740 -> 10:31.180] call a clarity yesterday because they were doing good for once.
[10:31.180 -> 10:38.260] But then you know they were more of the back-end markers yesterday. They were
[10:38.260 -> 10:43.260] trying to get that pit advantage where they don't pit and then take themselves
[10:43.260 -> 10:45.320] all the way to a one-stop pit strategy.
[10:45.320 -> 10:49.880] And then at least try to be somewhere in that contention of points position.
[10:49.880 -> 11:00.160] But overall with Lando and Lando's accident and Ricardo.
[11:00.160 -> 11:01.720] That was unfortunate, man.
[11:01.720 -> 11:05.440] Yeah, it was a shit show. They were all over the place yesterday.
[11:05.440 -> 11:11.760] Yeah, I don't know man what's going on with McLaren. I think they are improving somewhat.
[11:11.760 -> 11:15.440] Like definitely they have. Like in the first race we saw they were dead last.
[11:15.440 -> 11:26.480] Like they are doing pretty well now. Especially with Lando's podium last race of course you know McLaren are doing good but I'm very
[11:26.480 -> 11:33.160] confused like I don't understand like is it the engine is it the aero what what
[11:33.160 -> 11:37.520] is causing this. Everyone is still trying to figure their cars out
[11:37.520 -> 11:44.120] while Red Bull and Ferrari just have figured it better. But yesterday at
[11:44.120 -> 11:45.880] least from Ricc, there were some
[11:45.880 -> 11:51.040] brilliant overtakes. Like that's even Brundle at some point was like that's
[11:51.040 -> 11:56.280] the old Aussie we know. That was true like there was an amazing
[11:56.280 -> 12:02.120] corner cut on Sunoda which you saw like the old Ricardo come
[12:02.120 -> 12:06.960] back with like late braking and then turning in.
[12:13.440 -> 12:20.400] So there was some great driving from Ricardo. But at the same point, I feel like Lando was so struggling with the whole car. The turn 18 hairpin man, like at one point it felt like he
[12:20.400 -> 12:25.880] was gonna probably retire his car because he was so wide but yeah
[12:25.880 -> 12:32.100] but yeah just just too many overtakes on him I think like lap 19, 20, 21 same
[12:32.100 -> 12:38.240] spot turn 18 hairpin that they just kept getting on. But I'm glad that he crashed
[12:38.240 -> 12:52.320] because he made the race a bit interesting right? True he was the Latifi for yesterday. Exactly, for a change like I was actually, so I was
[12:52.320 -> 12:56.400] watching this race at a bar with a couple of my friends and like while
[12:56.400 -> 13:01.760] watching the race you know I had gotten a bit dull and then we are like so we
[13:01.760 -> 13:06.480] placing bets on is Latifi going to crash or rather what lap is Latifi going to crash.
[13:06.480 -> 13:11.280] And then there goes Lando and we're like, oh man, something changed here.
[13:12.560 -> 13:13.080] Yeah.
[13:13.760 -> 13:19.720] But that crash too was very weird because it felt like Gasly was going to retire the car.
[13:19.720 -> 13:26.380] And that's what even Lando said in the post-race interview where he was like, if it felt
[13:26.380 -> 13:32.960] like Gasly was gonna retire the car, if he was then it was completely his
[13:32.960 -> 13:38.100] fault to sort of just come into me and then if he wasn't then I don't know how
[13:38.100 -> 13:41.400] he got there. So there's something along those lines where it was like Gasly's
[13:41.400 -> 13:48.640] fault all the way. But yesterday commentary was just too much on point man. It is so much fun listening to them because he was
[13:48.640 -> 13:52.440] like oh the tires come off like a Polo mint. I was like yeah that's actually
[13:52.440 -> 14:00.000] true. The way that Dre Wright popped off. So it came off. Yeah it's actually true. I agree.
[14:00.000 -> 14:04.720] Oh man that's that's a nice one. See this is what I miss man. I'm kind of missing
[14:04.720 -> 14:08.000] these guys now. I don't mind the red button much. Yeah that that's a nice one. See this is what I miss man. I'm kind of missing these guys now. I don't mind the red button much.
[14:08.000 -> 14:15.000] Yeah, that's something that they're still blabbering about but yeah yesterday's commentary was bang on point.
[14:15.000 -> 14:28.880] Something interesting that I think I noticed yesterday was and this is again like coming off of because of the commentary is what I learned is the track was driven in an anti-clockwise pattern which sort of
[14:28.880 -> 14:33.760] gives you more right-handers than the left-handers and that's why we saw like
[14:33.760 -> 14:39.140] more right tire degradation than the left and somehow and somehow this sort
[14:39.140 -> 14:46.960] of I don't know how or if it's even true but sort of we saw a few right tire
[14:46.960 -> 14:53.080] mess-ups during pit stops. We saw one for science versus Perez where
[14:53.080 -> 14:58.520] science had like a 5.4 versus Perez had a 3.1 which still is more than what Red Bull
[14:58.520 -> 15:08.840] ends up getting. Alonzo had like a 5.7. I think at some point even Ricardo had like an issue with his rear right or something.
[15:08.840 -> 15:12.000] So, overall it was a pit stop.
[15:12.000 -> 15:15.640] Multiple people got their tires messed up.
[15:15.640 -> 15:19.840] Everyone rather than trying to manage their lefts
[15:19.840 -> 15:24.160] were on alert to sort of manage their rights at this point.
[15:24.160 -> 15:29.200] So, yeah, it was an interesting race overall too.
[15:29.200 -> 15:30.600] Yeah, that's quite interesting.
[15:30.600 -> 15:33.200] I didn't actually consider the fact
[15:33.200 -> 15:35.920] what you just mentioned about, okay.
[15:35.920 -> 15:38.880] I mean, how it affects whether you're running
[15:38.880 -> 15:40.880] on the track clockwise or anticlockwise.
[15:40.880 -> 15:41.720] Right.
[15:43.400 -> 15:46.680] Well, now that we're talking a bit technical let's go to the
[15:46.680 -> 15:54.760] other spectrum of it and let's visit some memes just let's keep our
[15:54.760 -> 16:08.400] heads aside and enjoy some good fresh hot memes. I assume you are gonna be sharing some screen. For folks on YouTube this is where you have an
[16:08.400 -> 16:13.160] advantage over anyone listening in audio because you get to see this. Where are we?
[16:13.160 -> 16:19.860] We are at meme section. Again that's the best Japanese version, manga, whatever you
[16:19.860 -> 16:29.120] want to call it of meme section that I can do. All right, it's the first one. The first one
[16:29.120 -> 16:34.920] basically is the panel with Spiderman shooting web and the second photo is the
[16:34.920 -> 16:40.200] podium where everybody is like, I don't know what that was the streamer thingy
[16:40.200 -> 16:46.160] is that they were like spraying out on those guys but what the f**k was going on
[16:46.160 -> 16:52.160] at least at least this is like the sfw version of the meme i can i mean my immediate thought
[16:52.160 -> 16:59.760] even goes to like an nsfw version of the yeah right i can see that
[17:01.600 -> 17:11.720] i don't want to but i can i'll'll just leave it there. A different origin of Spider-Man.
[17:11.720 -> 17:19.000] Let's take a look at the next one. This has to be the favorite meme of the weekend for
[17:19.000 -> 17:29.280] me. So it's basically the one which you know know, it says no one. And then the other subtext is the two drivers with the most WDCs on the grid.
[17:29.760 -> 17:31.160] And then there are two photos.
[17:31.160 -> 17:36.520] One is of a Superman and the other is of Xerxes from 300.
[17:37.360 -> 17:43.200] The context being, I don't know if you know about this Akash.
[17:43.320 -> 17:45.760] Do you know why Vettel was wearing his underwear outside? That one I don't know if you knew about this Akash. Do you know why Vettel was wearing his underwear outside?
[17:45.760 -> 17:52.320] That one I don't know. Lewis was just being Lewis with all the jazz and the bling that he comes on with.
[17:52.320 -> 17:56.400] But what was Vettel's story for wearing Superman cape?
[17:56.400 -> 18:05.760] So it's basically related to safety. Like FIA is clamping down on a few rules and I completely side with FIA over here
[18:06.720 -> 18:15.040] for both these things actually. So basically they say that the driver shouldn't be wearing
[18:15.040 -> 18:20.960] any garment which might stick to their skin in case of a fire and basically they are asking
[18:20.960 -> 18:26.700] all drivers to wear like fireproof clothing even for the innerwear.
[18:26.700 -> 18:32.280] So a lot of drivers are protesting because it's not very comfortable and thus you see
[18:32.280 -> 18:38.320] Vettel wearing his puma underwear on the outside.
[18:38.320 -> 18:40.880] And the same thing goes for Hamilton as well.
[18:40.880 -> 18:49.200] The same thing like FI is trying to clamp down on any jewelry while driving and they're saying that basically it can burn into your skin and
[18:49.200 -> 18:53.880] not just that it can fly as a debris and when it's going at 300 kilometers per
[18:53.880 -> 18:57.800] hour you know it's basically a bullet. Yeah. So you need to cut that shit out.
[18:57.800 -> 19:01.760] Well you know what at least I agree with FIA here because they know that with
[19:01.760 -> 19:05.400] these concrete barriers a crash so eminent as
[19:05.400 -> 19:10.280] everyone was shocked with like the whole Groshoff fire things is gonna come so
[19:10.280 -> 19:15.040] might as well like have these guys not aware all of this because who knows who
[19:15.040 -> 19:28.040] out of the 20 is gonna run into a debt defying crash again man yeah that's true that's true all right let's go to the next one
[19:28.040 -> 19:32.960] hang on hang on go back to the previous one I just read this somewhere and I
[19:32.960 -> 19:38.160] don't know if it's true but did did someone ask Lewis that hey do you have
[19:38.160 -> 19:42.720] how many pure things do you have and then he said like I have a couple some
[19:42.720 -> 19:49.000] that I can't reveal where they are. Everyone's been guessing where they are. I don't know if you heard about this thing.
[19:49.000 -> 19:54.600] This is news to me. This is quite interesting.
[19:54.600 -> 20:01.000] Go look it up. Go look it up like after you've stopped sharing the screen and like you know or if you have a second screen at your end.
[20:01.000 -> 20:08.880] But like sure I just I think I read it on I read it on reddit and I was like I don't know if this is to be believed or is someone
[20:08.880 -> 20:15.000] just pulling his legs with like all the weird piercings this guy's got I think I
[20:15.000 -> 20:19.240] think it also could be you was just trolling the media as well. Who knows someone
[20:19.240 -> 20:27.000] predicted he's probably got one ring on his dick or something but anyways what's the next one?
[20:27.000 -> 20:36.000] Alright, leave a comment about where do you think this video is going to be posted.
[20:36.000 -> 20:46.400] The next one it has to be this, trying to figure out whether Albon is out driving the car or Williams is a midfield car and Latifi is shit.
[20:48.080 -> 20:52.080] That's true, that's actually true now that he's got his painted hair theory.
[20:53.200 -> 20:59.360] He's been, I think like that's the only way he knows how to drive like either start 18, 19 or 20
[20:59.360 -> 21:02.560] and then end up in points like that's the only way he knows how to drive.
[21:04.240 -> 21:08.240] Yeah and I think Williams is going to just dip him in red paint because
[21:08.240 -> 21:11.680] they if they think that red hair brings one point so you know
[21:11.680 -> 21:15.680] yeah all his body hair being red might gain
[21:15.680 -> 21:22.320] in them more points. Top 10 anime betrayers oh my god.
[21:22.320 -> 21:27.040] It's basically a photo of Shumi hitting Vettel and with
[21:27.040 -> 21:34.740] the you know the subtext of top 10 anime betrayals. Yeah, yeah definitely some
[21:34.740 -> 21:41.160] mentoring, parental relationship damage happening here. I know I mean they laughed
[21:41.160 -> 21:46.240] it off after that but. It's quite easy for Vettel to like slip in a few
[21:46.240 -> 21:54.400] bad advices right like yeah this is just that's true just to take revenge that's true you cost me
[21:54.400 -> 22:04.880] a point yeah I think it's the last one which completely captures the Miami GP in one photo
[22:08.040 -> 22:25.520] which completely captures the Miami GP in one photo. So it's basically, this is your brain, okay with a normal GP and this is your brain on drugs. Where you have like a collage of Vettel in his underwear. I don't know what is he doing. And then the Sky Sports commentator trying to swim.
[22:26.880 -> 22:32.880] These McLean tank top thingies. What are they trying to do there?
[22:33.840 -> 22:39.200] Then there was a police escort. What the hell was going on with the police escort? You know what?
[22:39.200 -> 22:45.600] I have a theory here. I know why I think Hamilton could had won the race but he purposefully
[22:45.600 -> 22:52.480] didn't because he was afraid what might happen to him with the escort.
[22:52.880 -> 23:05.000] Ouch! Ouch! Sure, black lives matter. Sure. He was like, this is America. So, you know, he has to.
[23:07.400 -> 23:07.440] Yeah. Yeah. Be a bit careful.
[23:11.000 -> 23:11.600] Who knows someone could be choking down his throat.
[23:14.000 -> 23:17.080] When he shouts. Yeah. No, man, I think like nobody told these cops that
[23:17.760 -> 23:20.280] this is a racing track and these speeds are allowed.
[23:20.280 -> 23:22.200] They probably came there for a ticket.
[23:22.200 -> 23:24.680] We see a few cars driving over speed limit.
[23:24.640 -> 23:34.400] They probably came there for a ticket. We see a few cars driving over speed limit. I don't know. I think, you know, I think we should talk about the Miami GP in general right after
[23:34.400 -> 23:41.000] this. And I think this is a very good segue for it. So I think let's go there.
[23:41.000 -> 23:42.120] Sure. Sure. Sure.
[23:42.120 -> 23:49.000] What are your thoughts, Akash, about the whole thing? I don't know. I can't even like...
[23:49.000 -> 23:58.000] You know as fans we sort of make the statement that every weekend the carnival travels, every weekend the circus is in Newtown.
[23:58.000 -> 24:12.920] This weekend it felt like they wore a circus and a carnival with all with all the jazz that that they put right so yeah that's that's how the weekend felt to me. Yeah it's like
[24:12.920 -> 24:18.120] you know I have very mixed feelings about it like on one hand I'm I'm kind
[24:18.120 -> 24:23.160] of happy that it's the sport is getting popular in the US it's a big market and
[24:23.160 -> 24:29.200] like if we like if it becomes popular here, with that comes
[24:30.720 -> 24:37.200] original programming related to F1 and everything and we'll see more great programming about F1.
[24:38.000 -> 24:49.280] But at the same time, it seems like they are really trying to get into the whole influencer culture as such,
[24:49.280 -> 24:57.200] in US at least. Which I don't want to gatekeep, I'm happy if people, even new fans are discovering
[24:57.200 -> 25:06.440] it and they're liking the spot, it's great. But at the same time it feels weird with, you know, the whole like the fake boat thing, the fake beach and everything that they did.
[25:07.000 -> 25:08.440] Uh, I mean, okay.
[25:08.440 -> 25:13.040] They wanted to sell tickets, but it, it kind of cheapens the sport somewhat, right?
[25:13.100 -> 25:16.880] Like it felt very gimmicky, the celebs and everything.
[25:16.900 -> 25:22.800] And you know, what we saw with Martin Rundle's grid work as well, it was completely hilarious.
[25:22.800 -> 25:27.000] At least he didn't get shoved away this time.
[25:27.000 -> 25:30.440] That's the good part. Of the people who were not interested to talking to him, there was
[25:30.440 -> 25:37.440] this interview with Venus Williams, I think, where he, Martin is trying to get her attention.
[25:37.440 -> 25:45.360] She like, he asks her, like, are you here to support Hamilton? And then I think DJ Khalid comes there so she starts talking to him
[25:45.360 -> 25:52.160] and like ignoring Martin then she like looks at Martin again and then she sees the mic and he's
[25:52.160 -> 26:00.720] like oh he's still here okay I have to answer this and then she starts talking and then she
[26:00.720 -> 26:05.000] just says yeah I'm here to support Lewis and the other drivers too.
[26:05.000 -> 26:09.000] I think that was on purpose. Let me interject there. I think that was on purpose.
[26:09.000 -> 26:16.000] Because last year Serena was on Monaco and she was asked to give tips to Max about driving.
[26:16.000 -> 26:20.000] So she would have probably told Venus to stay away from these guys.
[26:20.000 -> 26:25.200] Because these guys know jack shit and they ask you to give driving tips to drivers and we are tennis players.
[26:33.840 -> 26:40.320] So that makes sense. That makes sense. And right after that he started talking to DJ Khaled who seemed like an NPC because like he was just talking random shit man. It's so bizarre.
[26:40.320 -> 26:52.720] He was saying like this is Miami, this is my home and he's retired. I don't know he was saying like this is Miami this is my home and I was so like I was so
[26:52.720 -> 27:01.460] confused watching as to what is going on exactly but regardless the track is
[27:01.460 -> 27:10.600] pretty good though I like it yes I personally like that yeah I know the the internet stone over it and even on our track sort of explanation
[27:10.600 -> 27:15.400] video we got like different opinions but I'm with you on that I like that track
[27:15.400 -> 27:21.540] it's it's got a good straight it's got the good chicane yeah the only thing I
[27:21.540 -> 27:28.840] probably I don't like is the the concrete barriers. I know we're going to talk about it in a separate video not part of this recording.
[27:28.840 -> 27:32.080] But beyond that, yeah, I'm with you.
[27:32.080 -> 27:32.840] I like the track.
[27:34.240 -> 27:34.680] Yeah, right.
[27:34.680 -> 27:47.120] It's like a mix between a lot of tracks, I think like you've got the kind of bendy straights that we saw in Saudi and then you have got those the chicane you know which
[27:47.120 -> 27:52.640] is very technical to drive as such. The 14 and 15. Not really easy yeah exactly and then the
[27:53.840 -> 28:02.480] hairpin at turn 17 which is a pretty interesting like overtaking point and I like it 3 DRS zones
[28:02.480 -> 28:06.080] and yeah pretty good track and I think a lot of drivers themselves
[28:06.080 -> 28:07.320] also liked it.
[28:07.320 -> 28:14.200] So overall I think it's a good thing Miami GP I just hope that they somehow contain the
[28:14.200 -> 28:20.160] you know the fakeness of things that they try to introduce overall.
[28:20.160 -> 28:30.280] Even for the race directors right like it, they kept cutting to shorts with those two pools in Hard Rock Cafe and kept showing people in those pools.
[28:30.280 -> 28:32.600] And I'm like, I don't, they don't care about the race.
[28:32.600 -> 28:33.760] They're in the pool enjoying.
[28:33.760 -> 28:34.640] I don't care about that.
[28:34.640 -> 28:35.160] Exactly.
[28:35.160 -> 28:40.160] Why am I seeing four fat dudes in swimming costumes?
[28:41.960 -> 28:42.960] Sipping on a drink.
[28:42.960 -> 28:43.640] That made no sense.
[28:43.640 -> 28:44.040] Yes.
[28:49.000 -> 28:53.240] I mean, I still understand they're showing fans who are actually in the grandstands and watching the race because they're at least like interested in the race.
[28:53.240 -> 28:54.760] Even for them, even for them.
[28:54.760 -> 29:00.360] So there were these moments where the Hamilton's overtaking or you know being overtaken or
[29:00.360 -> 29:05.840] whatever and then they'll cut to some fan cheering and the commentators are
[29:05.840 -> 29:14.080] like even he's excited so back to the race now. Exactly, exactly. So it was weird.
[29:14.080 -> 29:21.860] It was weird. But talking about Hamilton, I don't know why I
[29:21.860 -> 29:24.880] mentioned him but like talking about Hamilton, I want to spend some time
[29:24.880 -> 29:28.040] talking about Mercedes yesterday because it you know
[29:28.040 -> 29:32.840] it did feel like our theory from from last time is sort of sort of holding
[29:32.840 -> 29:42.340] true. We did see Hamilton struggle during Q1 where he was probably gonna get out.
[29:42.340 -> 29:46.000] Russell during Q2 where he was again probably gonna get out. Russell during Q2, where he was again probably going to get out.
[29:46.000 -> 29:55.000] But all in all, Mercedes did have a good weekend compared to the previous weekends that they've had.
[29:55.000 -> 29:58.000] Your thoughts on Mercedes overall?
[29:58.000 -> 30:02.000] I think they are slowly climbing up the ladder.
[30:02.000 -> 30:06.300] I think they had also mentioned this before the race that they're
[30:06.300 -> 30:11.240] going to bring in an upgrade this time, which would kind of break or make
[30:11.240 -> 30:15.800] their season and, uh, I think they are in the right trajectory because at
[30:15.800 -> 30:19.520] least this time what we saw, they ended up with four and five, right.
[30:19.880 -> 30:20.200] Yeah.
[30:20.220 -> 30:22.960] Which is the third best on the field, which is pretty awesome
[30:22.960 -> 30:24.780] for, you know, where they started.
[30:24.780 -> 30:32.080] So I think our theory does hold up kind of like they have been experimenting with a lot
[30:32.080 -> 30:33.080] of different things.
[30:33.080 -> 30:37.320] I think even we had seen this somewhere, right?
[30:37.320 -> 30:44.000] Like they were using these light sensors to try and understand the port poising effect
[30:44.000 -> 30:46.160] and overall like the performance of the
[30:46.160 -> 30:52.400] car and like they were okay with the added weight because they were so desperate for it to try and
[30:52.400 -> 30:58.960] improve things. So yeah for sure I think Mohit might end up the third fastest team by the end
[30:58.960 -> 31:07.600] of the season. True yeah I could buy into that I think like, I forget who mentioned about this too, but you're right.
[31:07.600 -> 31:19.200] Because what ended up technically this particular race was, Merck was eating into Ferrari's slow corner speed.
[31:19.200 -> 31:28.800] So, they have started to come into that competition again. I think like all they need to do now is figure out how to balance that
[31:28.800 -> 31:33.440] poor poising, pace, eating issue that they have.
[31:34.960 -> 31:36.320] So, yeah.
[31:36.760 -> 31:41.960] So one thing I wanted to point out with, you know, the Mercedes races
[31:41.960 -> 31:45.320] that the third driver at Mercedes, who basically
[31:45.320 -> 31:50.640] just stepped out of the way to let the first two drivers go by, uh, who's
[31:50.640 -> 31:58.080] both as I believe I have this theory.
[31:58.160 -> 32:04.440] I have this theory that, uh, Toto has like a secret dog whistle, or I don't
[32:04.440 -> 32:08.560] know, boot as whistle that we can call that he just, you know, whistles into.
[32:08.560 -> 32:12.160] And then Botas goes into this mind control mode where, you know,
[32:12.160 -> 32:14.000] Toto can just control him as he wants.
[32:14.000 -> 32:16.560] It's at a frequency where only Botas can hear.
[32:16.560 -> 32:17.560] Exactly.
[32:17.560 -> 32:19.560] Like if Toto doesn't know, he just whistles. That's it.
[32:19.560 -> 32:22.560] But I know what you're saying about, like talking, right?
[32:22.560 -> 32:25.920] Like there was this point where there was a Botas.
[32:25.920 -> 32:30.640] I want to say like a Botas Hamilton Russell, but could be Botas Russell Hamilton train.
[32:31.600 -> 32:35.040] And then those two guys were fighting off turn 18 hairpin.
[32:35.040 -> 32:36.800] Botas just moves away.
[32:36.800 -> 32:42.080] It genuinely felt like there were probably some team orders
[32:42.080 -> 32:45.120] only for Botas to realize, oh shoot, I'm not part of this team.
[32:47.600 -> 32:52.000] Yeah, I think he just like messed himself up. Like I think he locked, he had locked up. I think
[32:52.000 -> 32:57.760] that's what the issue was. But still, the way like the cut to the camera, right? It felt that way.
[32:57.760 -> 33:05.240] Like, you know, he just... A very dramatic way to show how he moved away. Yeah. Yeah.
[33:05.240 -> 33:08.680] But it is, you know, what sort of kudos to him.
[33:08.680 -> 33:11.600] He started above Hamilton
[33:12.040 -> 33:15.000] and there was some good memes coming out of that situation.
[33:16.480 -> 33:20.040] Well, well, well, look how the tables have turned sort of situation.
[33:21.120 -> 33:24.320] Yeah. And honestly, if not for that mistake,
[33:24.320 -> 33:28.520] he could have probably ended up fourth as well, like fifth as well.
[33:28.520 -> 33:34.920] Right. Yeah, it didn't feel like he was getting into too much pressure from those Mercedes at that point.
[33:34.920 -> 33:37.400] Exactly. Yeah, he could have salvaged his position.
[33:37.400 -> 33:47.200] Well, I think like, you know, while you say that, these two two drivers Botas and Perez that have consistently
[33:47.200 -> 33:53.320] sort of struggle getting their position back because I for one sort of felt like
[33:53.320 -> 33:57.040] he's gonna make that dive on science at some point and get that position back
[33:57.040 -> 34:01.240] but that never happened and Botas also like started falling back
[34:01.240 -> 34:05.120] Perez still dive once but yeah but, but that was his real life.
[34:05.120 -> 34:09.360] Then he never came back. Yeah, yeah, that's true. That's true.
[34:09.360 -> 34:14.080] Yeah, yeah, I think somewhere right. Like I think we saw the same
[34:14.080 -> 34:18.520] thing with Perez in what race was it? I think last Sazee where he was leading.
[34:18.520 -> 34:26.000] Yeah, one of the two. Where he likeucked at the pit stop and then later he just couldn't
[34:26.000 -> 34:30.080] overtake Sainz at all, no matter what.
[34:30.080 -> 34:31.480] We see that often happening.
[34:31.480 -> 34:33.320] I don't know why though.
[34:33.320 -> 34:36.240] It's clear that the Red Bull is fast.
[34:36.240 -> 34:40.040] Max is definitely showing that.
[34:40.040 -> 34:42.600] I think there's something here.
[34:42.600 -> 34:45.080] It's probably related to their driving styles or something like that.
[34:45.480 -> 34:46.920] But yeah, same thing with Botas.
[34:46.920 -> 34:48.840] He couldn't get back to the position.
[34:49.080 -> 34:49.580] Yeah.
[34:49.880 -> 34:51.320] But still kudos to him, man.
[34:51.320 -> 34:52.600] He's doing a brilliant job.
[34:52.600 -> 34:53.100] Yeah.
[34:53.560 -> 34:57.280] I mean, who would have thunk like I had honestly expected.
[34:57.600 -> 35:00.520] There is, there is a, there is an interesting meme about this too.
[35:00.520 -> 35:12.000] So, because you say who would have thunk this, this where Bortas leaves Williams, Williams gets fucked. Bortas leaves Mercedes, Mercedes gets fucked.
[35:12.000 -> 35:17.760] Oh yes. Whenever he leaves there that's gonna get fucked.
[35:17.760 -> 35:27.400] Interesting I think we are on to something. What was the shenanigans between Russell and Hamilton, man?
[35:27.400 -> 35:30.360] I heard about this but I didn't actually see it.
[35:30.360 -> 35:33.760] I was just going to ask you about that.
[35:33.760 -> 35:37.640] Because at times, it felt like there were team orders coming into play
[35:37.640 -> 35:41.240] where they wanted to have Hamilton ahead of Russell.
[35:41.240 -> 35:46.160] But then I feel like Russell was pure on pace yesterday like
[35:46.160 -> 35:52.280] I think there were some clean passes from him to overtake Hamilton there were
[35:52.280 -> 35:59.480] some good lunges into Hamilton for an overtake overall it just felt like
[35:59.480 -> 36:05.880] while they're still figuring that car out and even if they had like the same cars yesterday
[36:08.480 -> 36:09.080] Russell was more of an element zone
[36:11.200 -> 36:12.200] for himself than Hamilton.
[36:18.840 -> 36:19.640] You know what I enjoyed the most about yesterday's race? Hamilton's really about complaining about the strategy.
[36:22.960 -> 36:23.560] Did he say like my tires are short? I don't know. What did he say?
[36:29.080 -> 36:29.120] I don't recall what exactly he said, but basically essence was that, you know,
[36:31.000 -> 36:34.520] you did me dirty with the strategy.
[36:38.400 -> 36:39.280] Was he in like the P5 positions by that time?
[36:43.240 -> 36:43.320] Okay. So that's when, that's when his mind starts tuning into complain mode. Okay.
[36:44.240 -> 36:46.480] All right. That makes sense. Exactly.
[36:48.560 -> 36:49.560] I truly, truly enjoyed watching that.
[36:51.040 -> 36:51.080] The old Hamilton was back.
[36:51.480 -> 36:54.320] Yeah.
[37:00.000 -> 37:04.760] There was, there was some good replays that showed Russell passing Hamilton off track. It was sort of like a good switcheroo happening essentially.
[37:05.080 -> 37:08.120] But yeah, overall, overall some good battling.
[37:08.520 -> 37:17.160] They also did not, at least not on the radio, but they didn't show them not fighting.
[37:17.200 -> 37:19.880] Like Toto allowed them to battle it out.
[37:21.120 -> 37:22.120] Is what it looked like.
[37:22.160 -> 37:27.200] I don't know behind the scenes of things were going on, but at least on the front it was that.
[37:27.200 -> 37:33.100] No, I think I think most of these would let them fight for now because I think it makes sense.
[37:33.100 -> 37:38.200] I mean, they're nowhere near in the, you know, running for the championship anyways.
[37:38.200 -> 37:38.500] Yeah.
[37:38.500 -> 37:42.100] So doesn't make sense to use team murders much right now.
[37:42.100 -> 37:44.300] I mean, and they are keeping it clean.
[37:44.300 -> 37:48.240] They're not like, you know, pushing each other off the track or doing anything nasty to each other.
[37:48.240 -> 37:51.040] So I think, I mean, they push both of their track.
[37:53.440 -> 37:56.160] Botas just moved off the track on his own, man.
[37:59.520 -> 38:06.160] Yeah, but well, pushing, since you're talking about pushing, what the hell was Mick doing, man?
[38:07.120 -> 38:14.480] Yeah, I think like he's getting mixed advice from his godfather and father. I don't know about the
[38:14.480 -> 38:20.640] father part, but like what I mean to say is Vettel's gonna re-evaluate how he wants to sort
[38:20.640 -> 38:26.200] of godparent Mick at this point because yeah there was that was a
[38:26.200 -> 38:33.240] good lunge and Mick was trying to do but Vettel turning in on him. I still have to
[38:33.240 -> 38:38.320] probably see it from like a helicopter cam version of who turned more or was
[38:38.320 -> 38:43.000] there an under braking sort of scenario. From Mick's point of view did initially
[38:43.000 -> 38:45.200] look like there was some gap that he
[38:45.200 -> 38:50.880] could have taken into that turn but at the same time it felt like Mick under
[38:50.880 -> 38:58.160] braked and then went a bit more wider than he should have. Yeah I think it was a
[38:58.160 -> 39:02.480] little too eager from Mick's side like that corner doesn't have a lot of space
[39:02.480 -> 39:12.400] it does it all and there were three cars there. I think there was a launcher as well there. And there just wasn't enough might think it. I don't know.
[39:12.400 -> 39:19.760] McShird had like been patient probably. I don't know. Especially since he was fighting for his
[39:19.760 -> 39:25.840] first points, right? Exactly. That's the difference right? Like I think like the
[39:25.840 -> 39:30.340] excitement of the whole weekend got better of him because he started the
[39:30.340 -> 39:35.520] race off too on a good note where he for the first time in his career sort of I
[39:35.520 -> 39:39.080] mean this season to be honest.
[39:39.080 -> 39:45.400] He has a lot of practice out qualifying his teammate last season.
[39:45.400 -> 39:48.400] Right. So this season for the first time he out qualified K Mac.
[39:48.400 -> 39:51.680] K Mac who's been having like a stellar of a season this year.
[39:52.880 -> 39:55.160] Better than his entire Haas career to be honest.
[39:55.160 -> 40:00.720] But I think like that and that combined with the excitement of him
[40:01.360 -> 40:12.120] truly getting that first career point combined with like Vettel being in front of him getting the chance to sort of show his mentor how he's evolved.
[40:12.120 -> 40:18.560] I don't know. So much happening in just like two meter of a distance.
[40:18.560 -> 40:20.000] Yeah.
[40:20.000 -> 40:26.120] Sure. sure you learn that also played a picture like that also played part in
[40:26.120 -> 40:29.440] the picture that you know since it was Vettel he probably kind of wanted to
[40:29.440 -> 40:36.360] show off to his mentor kind of like you know look ma no hands
[40:37.760 -> 40:45.400] that's true that's true but I guess like that's that's where you learn from these things, right.
[40:45.400 -> 40:54.880] And because this happened again, the first time it happened was like when Alonzo nicked Gasly off into that turn one.
[40:54.880 -> 41:02.280] And then Alonzo was prompt on the radio saying, hey, I think he closed the door on me at the last minute.
[41:02.280 -> 41:09.880] And then Brendel again being Brendel brilliant last night was also known as turning into the corner.
[41:10.080 -> 41:12.440] And that...
[41:12.640 -> 41:14.360] I think Alonso got a penalty as well, right?
[41:14.560 -> 41:16.440] Yeah, yeah, at the end. 5 second penalty.
[41:16.640 -> 41:20.040] And as soon as Mick ran into Vettel, that's...
[41:20.240 -> 41:24.200] He didn't even have to... Brendel didn't even have to say it and it played in my head.
[41:24.400 -> 41:29.640] That's called turning into the corner.
[41:29.640 -> 41:33.840] It could have been like it's kind of could have been for both.
[41:33.840 -> 41:39.240] Like Vettel has missed a lot of like he has missed two races, three races I forget now.
[41:39.240 -> 41:41.640] But he has some catching up to do.
[41:41.640 -> 41:53.480] This was an awesome opportunity for Mick to gain his first points and well he squandered it as such so better luck next time I guess.
[41:53.480 -> 42:01.000] The other interesting bit was where Leclerc does a fastest lap and then he
[42:01.000 -> 42:05.160] comes into the radio and says it's so difficult to drive the car.
[42:10.320 -> 42:11.840] And as soon as he says that, Brundle again, like a brilliant Brundle yesterday that he was, he's like, what's so difficult? You've just done a fastest lap.
[42:16.560 -> 42:24.840] Was it, was it like Charles hinting at how he is kind of going to turn into Hamilton 2.0?
[42:25.000 -> 42:27.400] I think it comes with the position.
[42:27.400 -> 42:29.900] Like we saw Max starting to complain.
[42:29.900 -> 42:31.700] We're seeing Leclerc.
[42:31.700 -> 42:37.300] I think it's the nerves that get to you when you're in that position.
[42:37.300 -> 42:43.500] Because I think soon we'll also start seeing like, you know, my tyres are gone and then fastest lap.
[42:43.500 -> 42:50.000] Yeah. It's so difficult to drive and then fastest lap.
[42:50.000 -> 42:55.480] I think it's like podium 101 that everyone gets through as a coaching
[42:55.480 -> 43:02.240] lesson that okay how do you complain that's where you start. We saw we saw
[43:02.240 -> 43:07.000] some good DRS trains forming again as part of the 2022 team.
[43:07.000 -> 43:17.000] Yesterday, I think yesterday is one that I did capture as a screenshot was K-Mag, Schumacher, Vettel and Norris right before Norris died out.
[43:17.000 -> 43:30.000] But yeah, overall good race. Do we have stats on who gained the maximum position, lost maximum, max overtakes?
[43:30.000 -> 43:34.000] I think let's share that with the audience.
[43:34.000 -> 43:46.120] Let's get to the stats that we were talking about. You were right, Ocon. I think Ocon is the winner who gained 10 positions. Uh, of course, like that, I mean, it affects that a few people DNF.
[43:46.480 -> 43:51.540] So of course that kind of plays into the picture, but, uh, yeah, I think he
[43:52.160 -> 43:53.380] 10 positions, pretty awesome.
[43:53.380 -> 43:54.480] And where did he start?
[43:55.500 -> 43:57.880] Uh, he didn't have a very good qualifying, right?
[43:57.880 -> 43:59.980] I think Alpine were having a very weird day.
[44:00.680 -> 44:06.200] Uh, they started like right behind and yeah I don't know.
[44:06.200 -> 44:14.440] Anyways, I think the most positions lost has to be a tie here between Mick and Botas.
[44:14.440 -> 44:17.040] Because they both lost two positions.
[44:17.040 -> 44:19.880] So, well well.
[44:19.880 -> 44:21.600] Overall a good weekend.
[44:21.600 -> 44:26.000] As many complaints I had, I think like I vented them all out.
[44:26.000 -> 44:32.640] Yeah, the circus now travels to the traditional Barcelona, Catalonia.
