[02:03.560 -> 02:05.400] We've got drinks, little Pit Stop glasses. I don't know how much I like this, though. Why? There's like a gap now. We've got a double sofa set up, we've got drinks, we've got pit stop glasses.
[02:05.400 -> 02:07.000] I don't know how much I like this though.
[02:07.000 -> 02:07.500] Why?
[02:07.500 -> 02:08.500] There's like a gap now.
[02:08.500 -> 02:11.300] We used to, there was moments last season where we hugged.
[02:11.300 -> 02:15.000] Well what people don't know is we used to play footsies under the camera.
[02:15.000 -> 02:15.500] Shh.
[02:15.500 -> 02:17.000] But now they're going to see it so.
[02:17.000 -> 02:22.500] Today's a special episode because we're introducing something new, which we will get into later on.
[02:22.500 -> 02:23.500] What's that?
[02:23.500 -> 02:25.360] You know, the special thing over there? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[02:25.360 -> 02:26.800] We're going to be doing something for the first time.
[02:26.800 -> 02:27.520] I got you, I got you.
[02:27.520 -> 02:30.800] You might be able to hear in my voice, I sound a little bit ill.
[02:31.440 -> 02:34.080] I have been dead for the last four days.
[02:34.080 -> 02:36.560] I've got this written in capital letters on my phone.
[02:36.560 -> 02:41.040] Jake has been on death's door for at least three days straight.
[02:41.040 -> 02:42.160] It wasn't just me.
[02:42.160 -> 02:45.620] Me and a load of mates also got this virus thing and it completely
[02:45.620 -> 02:46.620] wiped me out.
[02:46.620 -> 02:50.140] I don't feel 100% now, to be fair, filming, setting all these lights up and doing the
[02:50.140 -> 02:53.300] lounges made me feel really dizzy and I do actually feel pretty sick right now.
[02:53.300 -> 02:55.380] It's nice to see you with a bit of colour in your face.
[02:55.380 -> 02:56.380] I was past it.
[02:56.380 -> 03:00.540] This guy, this guy came into the living room two days ago, he was the same colour as his
[03:00.540 -> 03:03.420] pillow in your hoodie, covered in food.
[03:03.420 -> 03:04.900] Mate, I felt horrendous.
[03:04.900 -> 03:07.080] If anyone else has got this virus going around at the moment,
[03:07.080 -> 03:09.200] I had it, it wiped me for four days,
[03:09.200 -> 03:10.940] and I was gutted because it's race week.
[03:10.940 -> 03:12.480] But we're finally back!
[03:12.480 -> 03:15.000] All I could hear with you was just dry heaving.
[03:15.000 -> 03:16.080] Dry heaving in the bathroom.
[03:16.080 -> 03:17.880] I knew that as well, that's what I hated.
[03:17.880 -> 03:19.520] I was just crying, laughing.
[03:19.520 -> 03:21.080] When I'm sick, when I was younger,
[03:21.080 -> 03:22.920] I would cry my eyes out because I was upset.
[03:22.920 -> 03:23.760] I still do, mate.
[03:23.760 -> 03:24.800] Now I just cry and laugh.
[03:24.800 -> 03:26.520] If I'm being sick, I'll cry. I was just laughing the whole my eyes out because I was upset. I still do, mate. I just cry and laugh. If I'm being sick, I'll cry.
[03:26.520 -> 03:27.880] I was just laughing the whole time.
[03:27.880 -> 03:28.880] I just find it hilarious.
[03:28.880 -> 03:30.680] There's nothing you can do, is there?
[03:30.680 -> 03:31.680] Not really.
[03:31.680 -> 03:32.680] You've got to go with it.
[03:32.680 -> 03:33.680] But yeah, the Pit Stop podcast is back.
[03:33.680 -> 03:36.480] How is it we've just started and I'm sweating already?
[03:36.480 -> 03:38.240] Well, I don't know.
[03:38.240 -> 03:39.800] It is really hot in here.
[03:39.800 -> 03:40.800] It's the light.
[03:40.800 -> 03:42.360] It's because you've got that light on, that light on, that light on.
[03:42.360 -> 03:43.600] There's four lights on.
[03:43.600 -> 03:46.480] The viewers at home don't know what we go through to make this happen.
[03:46.480 -> 03:49.840] We were saying that we hope the people who... we never shut our curtains.
[03:49.840 -> 03:53.920] And we were saying that the people on our balcony, we hope they actually could see us do this.
[03:53.920 -> 03:57.040] We've spoke about them before. Anyone who listens to our pod on the regs
[03:57.040 -> 04:01.200] knows that we have like a couple of neighbours in the flats across the street from us
[04:01.200 -> 04:03.120] and they're always staring into our living room.
[04:03.120 -> 04:04.880] Anytime we look out the window they're staring in.
[04:04.880 -> 04:05.040] But we're always just into our living room. Any time we look out the window, they're staring in,
[04:05.040 -> 04:07.200] but we're always just sat there doing nothing.
[04:07.200 -> 04:08.640] So at least if they look through now,
[04:08.640 -> 04:10.000] well, the curtains are fucking shut,
[04:10.000 -> 04:11.800] so they're not gonna be able to see anything, are they?
[04:11.800 -> 04:14.360] It's either the police, or it's Netflix.
[04:14.360 -> 04:15.200] No, it's Netflix.
[04:15.200 -> 04:16.160] They're filming behind the scenes.
[04:16.160 -> 04:16.980] I'm telling you now, mate,
[04:16.980 -> 04:18.640] they're on the balcony every time we're out there.
[04:18.640 -> 04:20.400] I know, I know, it's so weird.
[04:20.400 -> 04:22.280] But talking about Netflix,
[04:22.280 -> 04:25.140] we weren't in Drive to Survive, okay? Now that is a sad- What the fuck is that about? That in Drive to Survive. Okay?
[04:25.140 -> 04:25.980] Now that is a sad-
[04:25.980 -> 04:26.800] What the fuck is that about?
[04:26.800 -> 04:28.460] That is Drive to Survive, come on.
[04:28.460 -> 04:31.940] That is a sad day for us and a sad day for Drive to Survive.
[04:31.940 -> 04:33.740] We should have been in it.
[04:33.740 -> 04:34.580] We were checking the reflection.
[04:34.580 -> 04:35.400] I don't know if we should have been in it.
[04:35.400 -> 04:37.340] We were checking the reflection of like the glass and that.
[04:37.340 -> 04:40.060] Every single shot there was a race that we were at.
[04:40.060 -> 04:42.100] We were trying to figure out if we were there.
[04:42.100 -> 04:44.140] But I do feel like we got a lot of Drive to Survive fans
[04:44.140 -> 04:45.760] on our pod, so we should give our round up.
[04:45.760 -> 04:47.280] We binged it day one.
[04:47.280 -> 04:50.280] Mate, Drive2Survive is the reason we got into doing this in the first place.
[04:50.280 -> 04:52.480] So we kind of owe it to DTS.
[04:52.760 -> 04:55.280] They owe it to us to put us in, but we kind of should talk about it.
[04:55.280 -> 04:57.160] And I mean, I thought this season was good.
[04:57.160 -> 04:58.160] I don't know about you.
[04:58.160 -> 05:02.360] Compared to the last ones, I know there's been a bit of controversy about it.
[05:02.640 -> 05:06.920] Matt Gallagher spoke a little bit about it, but I thought on the whole, it was pretty good.
[05:06.920 -> 05:08.840] Yeah, taking it back to the beginning,
[05:08.840 -> 05:10.640] 8 a.m. it come out in UK.
[05:10.640 -> 05:12.520] We started watching it at 9 a.m.
[05:12.520 -> 05:14.120] and we didn't stop all day.
[05:14.120 -> 05:15.840] It was one after the other.
[05:15.840 -> 05:17.680] Binge the whole thing and straight after that
[05:17.680 -> 05:18.940] is when I became ill.
[05:18.940 -> 05:20.640] And I did make some notes,
[05:20.640 -> 05:22.880] but the first thing I'll say from the whole thing
[05:22.880 -> 05:26.480] that I just wasn't quite able to grasp was the fact that it
[05:26.480 -> 05:28.200] went from
[05:28.200 -> 05:33.580] Races like to another race suddenly and then was going back like I couldn't follow the story
[05:33.760 -> 05:39.580] Because I started making notes from episode one because I really wanted to talk about certain things and when it came to episode two
[05:39.580 -> 05:43.640] I wrote Bahrain testing again weird it went back and I couldn't write notes anymore
[05:43.640 -> 05:47.520] Because you can't write notes in order of like a series that isn't in order.
[05:47.520 -> 05:49.200] I guess they can't do that, can they?
[05:49.200 -> 05:50.160] But they have before.
[05:50.160 -> 05:51.120] If they have, have they?
[05:51.120 -> 05:52.880] It's not, I swear it's normally always in order.
[05:52.880 -> 05:55.680] It goes through like Barcelona and then it's all Barcelona stuff.
[05:55.680 -> 05:58.240] I don't know mate, because there's 20 races, like 10 episodes.
[05:58.240 -> 06:01.440] If we're getting that wrong and we're meant to have watched Drive Survive.
[06:01.440 -> 06:02.240] I don't remember anything.
[06:02.240 -> 06:03.200] I don't remember it being an ad before.
[06:03.200 -> 06:04.960] I don't remember anything from Drive Survive mate at all.
[06:04.960 -> 06:05.160] What, that we just watched? we're meant to have watched Drive Survive. I don't remember anything. I don't remember it being an app before. I don't remember anything from Drive Survive, mate, at all.
[06:05.160 -> 06:06.560] What, that we just watched?
[06:07.700 -> 06:09.660] Not really, but a little bit,
[06:09.660 -> 06:10.520] but I don't remember anything
[06:10.520 -> 06:13.320] from the last four seasons, really.
[06:13.320 -> 06:14.960] It was a, yeah, it was a long time ago.
[06:14.960 -> 06:16.200] To be fair to us, yeah,
[06:16.200 -> 06:19.720] it's been a lot of information crammed into 12 months.
[06:19.720 -> 06:21.280] For sure, well, we've seen that in the video
[06:21.280 -> 06:22.740] we just uploaded today.
[06:22.740 -> 06:25.600] We've uploaded a video to Instagram, TikTok, of me saying, we're amazed that in the video we just uploaded today. I mean, we've uploaded a video to Instagram, TikTok
[06:25.600 -> 06:29.020] of me saying, we're amazed that it bleeps in your ear
[06:29.020 -> 06:30.260] when there's a gear change.
[06:30.260 -> 06:31.100] You know, you know,
[06:31.100 -> 06:34.120] and you know the truth, you sent me that last night
[06:34.120 -> 06:35.400] and you said, upload it.
[06:35.400 -> 06:36.980] And I was going to upload it last night.
[06:36.980 -> 06:39.000] And I sat there on the sofa and I went to draft it.
[06:39.000 -> 06:41.240] And I knew I, in my head, I was like,
[06:41.240 -> 06:42.080] we're going to get ridiculed.
[06:42.080 -> 06:42.920] Yeah.
[06:42.920 -> 06:45.360] Cause I thought I was genuinely amazed.
[06:45.360 -> 06:47.960] Like at that point I had no idea.
[06:47.960 -> 06:49.280] And I think that's quite sad
[06:49.280 -> 06:50.840] because I sat there on the sofa and I thought
[06:50.840 -> 06:53.560] this is gonna go up and it's gonna get a shit ton of hate
[06:53.560 -> 06:55.080] cause people are gonna be, these guys are dumb.
[06:55.080 -> 06:56.120] It's now gone up.
[06:56.120 -> 07:00.200] Do you think people just hate on us for that?
[07:00.200 -> 07:02.400] If I was, if I was one of these people
[07:02.400 -> 07:04.120] and I was like a little troll on TikTok,
[07:04.120 -> 07:05.320] even if I didn't know the answer,
[07:05.320 -> 07:07.480] I'd take the piss out of us.
[07:07.480 -> 07:08.760] Yeah, I mean.
[07:08.760 -> 07:11.280] I don't believe that that many people knew about the beep,
[07:11.280 -> 07:12.960] because they'd never spoke about it on TV ever.
[07:12.960 -> 07:14.840] A lot of people didn't know about the beep,
[07:14.840 -> 07:16.960] and people were saying like they did speak about it
[07:16.960 -> 07:18.760] on TV or whatever, but I'll stand by it.
[07:18.760 -> 07:19.600] I didn't know it.
[07:19.600 -> 07:20.920] I'm happy to upload that.
[07:20.920 -> 07:22.560] I was happy to upload that clip.
[07:22.560 -> 07:24.360] And it's just funny that I like knew
[07:24.360 -> 07:25.320] we were gonna get hate for it, and now I'm just reading all the hate. It it's just funny that I like knew we were going to get hate for it.
[07:25.320 -> 07:27.160] And now I'm just reading all the hate.
[07:27.160 -> 07:29.240] It's funny for the listeners to know the situation
[07:29.240 -> 07:30.520] of me uploading that clip.
[07:30.520 -> 07:32.920] Imagine we clipped half the shit we talk about
[07:32.920 -> 07:35.280] because we only ever clip the good bits.
[07:35.280 -> 07:37.400] Genuinely, whenever we clip, to be fair,
[07:37.400 -> 07:40.160] they go more viral if we clip the bad bits.
[07:40.160 -> 07:41.280] Mate, it would go more viral
[07:41.280 -> 07:44.120] if we just had a camera recording 24 seven
[07:44.120 -> 07:46.000] because our best conversations are when the camera's off.
[07:46.000 -> 07:46.600] That's true.
[07:46.600 -> 07:48.800] Even now, like even this first, what, five, ten-
[07:48.800 -> 07:50.000] We're meant to be speaking about the rest of ours.
[07:50.000 -> 07:51.000] Seven minutes!
[07:51.000 -> 07:52.800] I've actually felt a bit nervous doing this.
[07:52.800 -> 07:55.200] I've felt a bit nervous doing this because I don't feel well.
[07:55.200 -> 07:57.000] It takes a minute. I ain't got an excuse.
[07:57.000 -> 07:59.600] I'm just jacked off Red Bull. I've had like four Red Bulls today.
[07:59.600 -> 08:01.600] Oh yeah, this isn't piss in a glass, it's Red Bull.
[08:01.600 -> 08:07.360] We got a delivery, guys. We had a knock at the door this morning, quite early.
[08:07.360 -> 08:09.800] And it was a fucking massive crate of Red Bulls.
[08:09.800 -> 08:11.560] So our fridge is stocked.
[08:11.560 -> 08:13.880] Also, Red Bull, sorry.
[08:13.880 -> 08:15.240] I think you've been trying to get it delivered
[08:15.240 -> 08:16.320] for the last three days
[08:16.320 -> 08:17.840] because the buzz has been going at 8 a.m.
[08:17.840 -> 08:20.440] But no one's awake at 8 a.m.
[08:20.440 -> 08:21.560] I've missed it every day.
[08:21.560 -> 08:23.120] I wake up, it says missed call.
[08:23.120 -> 08:23.960] Is this embarrassing?
[08:23.960 -> 08:25.400] I feel like we're drinking it like a pint.
[08:25.400 -> 08:27.280] No, we're showing off our Pitstop glasses.
[08:27.280 -> 08:29.080] I'm wearing my Pitstop hoodie as well.
[08:29.080 -> 08:30.160] Yeah. Nice.
[08:30.160 -> 08:31.400] Take it back to drive to survive.
[08:31.400 -> 08:33.120] I'm wearing my Lou Ham t-shirt.
[08:33.120 -> 08:35.280] Actually, I'll take it back to drive to survive.
[08:35.280 -> 08:37.560] Cause my first note was episode one.
[08:37.560 -> 08:40.000] We're not going to go for episode for episode,
[08:40.000 -> 08:42.720] but it was amazing seeing K-Mag back in the car.
[08:42.720 -> 08:44.560] I did love the whole K-Mag thing.
[08:44.560 -> 08:45.920] Cause he had the hydraulic leak, which was really interesting. We didn't really-Mag back in the car. I did love the whole K-Mag thing because he had the hydraulic leak,
[08:45.920 -> 08:47.040] which was really interesting.
[08:47.040 -> 08:48.960] We didn't really know about that at the time
[08:48.960 -> 08:49.880] when he was in qualifying
[08:49.880 -> 08:52.360] and he had time to get one lap out in qualifying.
[08:52.360 -> 08:53.200] Oh yeah, oh yeah.
[08:53.200 -> 08:55.080] And then he ended up finishing the race in seven.
[08:55.080 -> 08:56.320] And they didn't really talk about that on the,
[08:56.320 -> 08:58.720] do you reckon they dramatized it for Netflix or?
[08:58.720 -> 09:00.160] No, I just don't think we knew.
[09:00.160 -> 09:01.000] I mean, no one,
[09:01.000 -> 09:03.760] I don't think we knew there was a hydraulic leak in,
[09:03.760 -> 09:04.680] did they know?
[09:04.680 -> 09:06.280] Did the Sky report? I don't remember.
[09:06.280 -> 09:07.560] Maybe they kept it hush-hush.
[09:07.560 -> 09:09.960] It's weird watching Drive Survive this year,
[09:09.960 -> 09:12.440] because for the first time, we actually knew what had happened.
[09:12.440 -> 09:13.800] We'd never watched.
[09:13.800 -> 09:16.000] That's true. And that's good as well,
[09:16.000 -> 09:19.520] because I know that they've dramatized a load of shit in the past.
[09:19.520 -> 09:21.880] So, but I feel like this one was more real.
[09:21.880 -> 09:24.600] For some reason, I don't feel like there was those, like,
[09:24.600 -> 09:26.520] made-up storylines in it as much, but maybe just because we knew one was more real. For some reason, I don't feel like there was those like made up storylines in it as much,
[09:26.520 -> 09:28.600] but maybe just cause we knew what was going on.
[09:28.600 -> 09:30.400] Yeah, there's also probably things that we've watched
[09:30.400 -> 09:33.160] in that, assuming that it is real and it might not be.
[09:33.160 -> 09:34.000] You know what I mean?
[09:34.000 -> 09:35.000] We haven't taken a hundred,
[09:35.000 -> 09:37.920] so it's hard to take spot on notes from it.
[09:37.920 -> 09:41.320] The big thing about Drive to Survive was the fact
[09:41.320 -> 09:43.760] that Oscar Piastri is all over it.
[09:43.760 -> 09:46.400] Now, Oscar, you came and sat on this sofa
[09:46.400 -> 09:49.360] in our living room there a few months back last year.
[09:49.360 -> 09:51.400] And we mentioned Drive to Survive
[09:51.400 -> 09:53.680] and he was like, oh, I don't fucking know anything.
[09:53.680 -> 09:54.920] Bro, you were lying to us.
[09:54.920 -> 09:57.520] You were filming for fucking Drive to Survive
[09:57.520 -> 09:58.920] and he knew the whole time and we didn't.
[09:58.920 -> 10:01.040] Yeah, Oscar Piastri lied to us.
[10:01.040 -> 10:02.680] That's what you've learned on the Pit Stop podcast.
[10:02.680 -> 10:04.240] Yeah, he's a bloody good liar as well.
[10:04.240 -> 10:06.840] But it is great to see Oscar Piastri in Drive and Survive.
[10:06.840 -> 10:08.000] Mate, do you know what?
[10:08.000 -> 10:08.840] It's unreal.
[10:08.840 -> 10:10.360] He has a bit of like a star piece, doesn't he?
[10:10.360 -> 10:12.000] Properly, properly, yeah, yeah.
[10:12.000 -> 10:13.200] Yeah. I love it.
[10:13.200 -> 10:15.200] We will get into testing and talk all about that
[10:15.200 -> 10:16.560] because I desperately want to talk about
[10:16.560 -> 10:17.960] drug addiction as well. I nearly crossed paths.
[10:17.960 -> 10:19.520] Yeah, I want to get straight into that.
[10:19.520 -> 10:20.760] It's a tough one.
[10:20.760 -> 10:23.120] My first thing I will say with Drive and Survive,
[10:23.120 -> 10:24.640] and I do agree with Matt Gallagher on it,
[10:24.640 -> 10:27.720] and I've seen a lot of people say about the same thing,
[10:27.720 -> 10:32.640] did we need to show Joe's crash this many times?
[10:32.640 -> 10:34.400] Like four million times.
[10:34.400 -> 10:36.560] Like I get that we had to keep going back to Silverstone,
[10:36.560 -> 10:38.320] but that storyline wasn't every time
[10:38.320 -> 10:39.480] about the beginning of the race.
[10:39.480 -> 10:41.400] Did you need to show the beginning of the race
[10:41.400 -> 10:43.080] in this crash over and over again?
[10:43.080 -> 10:46.720] I think it was because, I mean, what they were doing, they were following certain drivers right?
[10:46.720 -> 10:50.360] Yeah. So Yuki got a little bit of time but there were certain drivers who, there
[10:50.360 -> 10:53.920] was more that happened to them over the season so I guess that start in
[10:53.920 -> 10:57.760] Silverstone was so chaotic and so many drivers were affected that they had to
[10:57.760 -> 11:01.440] cover it quite a few times. It's a shame though, it feels like this year they
[11:01.440 -> 11:05.320] almost lost time with the drivers for the driver shots
[11:05.320 -> 11:09.620] Like they had a load of you know, you've got Christian at home and doing shit at home. You got
[11:12.160 -> 11:15.860] Yeah, there was playing with fucking Christians ponies, but why aren't they with the drivers?
[11:15.860 -> 11:20.320] Yeah, I remember obviously Ricardo's when Ricardo was doing it loads
[11:20.320 -> 11:21.840] They would go with him and do stuff
[11:21.840 -> 11:25.080] They used to have they like lost a load of driver time?
[11:25.080 -> 11:27.040] Because realistically, that was one of my favorite bits.
[11:27.040 -> 11:30.640] Do you think they'll cover Riccardo Moore now?
[11:30.640 -> 11:32.120] No, he's not in F1 anymore.
[11:33.320 -> 11:34.200] At Red Bull though.
[11:34.200 -> 11:35.760] Oh no, I don't think he'll get Benny Eni.
[11:35.760 -> 11:36.600] Do you not think?
[11:36.600 -> 11:37.600] Well, I don't know, it's tough.
[11:37.600 -> 11:38.680] Do you reckon he'd wanna be in it?
[11:38.680 -> 11:39.560] I think, yeah.
[11:39.560 -> 11:41.720] I think he's a star of DTS.
[11:41.720 -> 11:42.560] He kind of says bye though, doesn't he?
[11:42.560 -> 11:44.360] He's a star of F1.
[11:44.360 -> 11:48.280] Yeah, he does, but like but I think they will show something.
[11:48.280 -> 11:51.180] Him on his ranch or doing something, riding a pony.
[11:51.180 -> 11:53.700] I find it sad the thought of him being in it, but not be.
[11:53.700 -> 11:55.540] I'm sad he's not on the grid, really.
[11:55.540 -> 11:57.500] He's definitely better than half the drivers
[11:57.500 -> 11:58.740] on the bloody grid.
[11:58.740 -> 11:59.580] He is.
[11:59.580 -> 12:00.400] Ricciardo?
[12:00.400 -> 12:01.900] Yeah, he is.
[12:01.900 -> 12:03.580] It's easy to take things for granted
[12:03.580 -> 12:06.000] because I really don't know what I'm talking about more than a year ago
[12:06.000 -> 12:08.400] No, I've never seen Ricardo do anything good
[12:09.640 -> 12:12.480] Thing is you're talking to me and I don't know what we're talking about either
[12:12.480 -> 12:14.480] but then you watch things like drive survive and
[12:14.680 -> 12:19.520] You see like how he maybe shouldn't have left Red Bull and he was really good back in the day and they fought
[12:19.600 -> 12:22.920] One thing I do like about it is they threw back quite a lot
[12:22.920 -> 12:25.720] They showed clips from old things,
[12:25.720 -> 12:27.680] like old series and old races,
[12:27.680 -> 12:29.520] because I wouldn't have had any idea.
[12:30.800 -> 12:34.240] I agree with everything that you said.
[12:34.240 -> 12:38.080] So they need to do more with the drivers behind the scenes.
[12:38.080 -> 12:40.580] Otherwise, I feel like it could get a bit boring.
[12:40.580 -> 12:42.720] The only way they could make it better
[12:42.720 -> 12:45.600] is to show more of the behind the scenes of the drivers
[12:45.600 -> 12:52.000] or they need to follow like two lads who are maybe fresh into the sport
[12:52.000 -> 12:57.000] who like have brought a new breath of fresh air to the sport from a different angle
[12:57.000 -> 12:58.500] That's interesting
[12:58.500 -> 13:00.500] That's what I think Netflix need to do
[13:00.500 -> 13:07.440] It's crazy you say that because that's kind of exactly what I was thinking it needs as well.
[13:12.880 -> 13:18.080] What are we gonna do? I don't know. No, I'll be honest, I'll be honest and I'm happy to say it because we weren't in it. I genuinely think next season can't be like that. No it can't.
[13:18.080 -> 13:23.840] It can't. Like because it will, don't get me wrong, Drive Survive was a phenomenon. Is that how you
[13:23.840 -> 13:26.040] pronounce the word? Phenomenon.
[13:26.040 -> 13:26.880] That was really good.
[13:26.880 -> 13:27.700] That was really good.
[13:27.700 -> 13:28.920] For a couple of reasons.
[13:28.920 -> 13:30.800] It came out in COVID.
[13:30.800 -> 13:32.680] Bam, number one, there's number one.
[13:32.680 -> 13:34.240] Well, it blew up during COVID.
[13:34.240 -> 13:35.080] Yeah.
[13:35.080 -> 13:37.560] Which gave everyone so much time to watch it and everything.
[13:37.560 -> 13:39.520] And yeah, people will still watch it now,
[13:39.520 -> 13:43.280] but I don't feel like that season has enough moments in it
[13:43.280 -> 13:44.840] that is going to be spoken about.
[13:44.840 -> 13:49.040] Like you said, it was the timing. It was it was fucking it was lockdown. It was the fact that
[13:49.040 -> 13:54.400] the sport just blew up in general. Yeah, like I feel like DTS obviously helped F1 blow up,
[13:54.400 -> 13:59.600] but I felt like it was kind of as well and DTS helped it. And F1 kind of also helped DTS like
[13:59.600 -> 14:04.960] it was just really good timing. Where there's also a weird divide. And I'm talking about this not
[14:04.960 -> 14:06.560] like defending either market,
[14:06.560 -> 14:08.580] because I get why F1 fans would say
[14:08.580 -> 14:10.360] that they don't like Drive to Survive
[14:10.360 -> 14:11.600] editing things differently,
[14:11.600 -> 14:13.040] and I get why some people would say
[14:13.040 -> 14:15.680] they love Drive to Survive editing it differently.
[14:15.680 -> 14:19.000] I worry that if Drive to Survive goes too far away from,
[14:19.000 -> 14:21.840] not making up storylines, but editing them,
[14:21.840 -> 14:28.040] then it basically is just watching the race highlights. They do it amazing, with all the music and that.
[14:28.040 -> 14:31.440] Well mate, you said something very, very poignant.
[14:31.440 -> 14:32.280] Is that the right word?
[14:32.280 -> 14:34.680] We are friends, I'm really busted out of the way.
[14:34.680 -> 14:35.840] I don't even know what poignant means.
[14:35.840 -> 14:37.320] Neither do I really.
[14:37.320 -> 14:38.160] You said-
[14:38.160 -> 14:40.440] Tell me what it means hypothetically.
[14:40.440 -> 14:42.960] Poignant, like it stuck out.
[14:42.960 -> 14:44.920] Like it rung bells in my ear,
[14:44.920 -> 14:46.380] and I was like, I'm going to remember that.
[14:46.380 -> 14:51.240] You said, why can't every race weekend be like DTS?
[14:51.240 -> 14:54.080] And I was like, yeah, yeah.
[14:54.080 -> 14:55.720] That would be, that would actually be
[14:55.720 -> 14:58.040] not obviously like a direct copy,
[14:58.040 -> 15:00.720] but like if they could follow the drivers a bit more
[15:00.720 -> 15:02.680] up to lead up to the race.
[15:02.680 -> 15:03.880] Like we said this time and time again,
[15:03.880 -> 15:06.200] they play that same Lewis Ham Lewis Hamilton, Martin Brundle
[15:06.200 -> 15:08.120] interview, I love Lewis Hamilton,
[15:08.120 -> 15:10.280] but they play the same shit over and over again.
[15:10.280 -> 15:12.440] Like they should make the build up
[15:12.440 -> 15:14.440] rather than rehashing and playing old content
[15:14.440 -> 15:15.440] over and over again.
[15:15.440 -> 15:17.160] Yeah, why can't they whack a GoPro in the cars
[15:17.160 -> 15:20.080] driving to the drivers coming to the race, you know?
[15:20.080 -> 15:22.120] But then do the drivers need more media?
[15:22.120 -> 15:24.560] Like that, for instance, that Sky vid
[15:24.560 -> 15:25.400] with like Philly
[15:25.400 -> 15:27.160] and Naomi and they're racing around the track and that,
[15:27.160 -> 15:28.000] that was great.
[15:28.000 -> 15:30.520] I'd love to see that on TV before the race.
[15:30.520 -> 15:31.640] Maybe they will, I don't know.
[15:31.640 -> 15:33.760] My opinion on the whole thing,
[15:33.760 -> 15:35.440] this is like a five year plan
[15:35.440 -> 15:37.840] of how I see F1 media changing.
[15:37.840 -> 15:39.640] And you can quote me on this,
[15:39.640 -> 15:42.440] it won't be anything like it is now in five years.
[15:42.440 -> 15:45.120] The drivers will not have that much media,
[15:45.120 -> 15:51.140] they won't have any of them slots because what F1 is now is football 10-15 years ago.
[15:51.140 -> 15:55.500] Players would walk out and there'd be reporters everywhere standing them, they have to talk
[15:55.500 -> 15:58.420] to all these reporters one after the other, people were writing about it.
[15:58.420 -> 16:00.380] So you mean like the media pen and stuff like that?
[16:00.380 -> 16:04.980] Oh yeah, media pen will stay, you have the basics but like they do so much media, like
[16:04.980 -> 16:05.000] different interviews, different things, they'll have the basics, but they do so much media,
[16:05.000 -> 16:06.640] different interviews, different things.
[16:06.640 -> 16:09.280] They'll have one thing, they'll end up doing F1,
[16:09.280 -> 16:11.280] which we broadcasted across Sky and F1.
[16:11.280 -> 16:12.120] And then Pitstop.
[16:12.120 -> 16:13.120] And Pitstop.
[16:13.120 -> 16:16.480] But just the way it will change is they need to build it out
[16:16.480 -> 16:20.000] because the drivers don't necessarily want to do media
[16:20.000 -> 16:21.640] because it's shit.
[16:21.640 -> 16:24.480] But if you let the drivers have a bit more creative control
[16:24.480 -> 16:25.520] with it and fun with it,
[16:25.520 -> 16:28.600] and you said to them, like, we need an hour of content
[16:28.600 -> 16:30.760] of you today at the race, what do you want to do?
[16:30.760 -> 16:32.880] One of them might prefer to go, all right,
[16:32.880 -> 16:34.840] well, let me whack a GoPro in my car,
[16:34.840 -> 16:36.920] and you can film me on the way to the race.
[16:36.920 -> 16:38.760] And I don't know, maybe Ted could be in the car.
[16:38.760 -> 16:41.880] I'm just trying to be a bit more creative with it
[16:41.880 -> 16:42.800] to try and mix it up.
[16:42.800 -> 16:44.320] But yeah, going back to Drive Survive,
[16:44.320 -> 16:46.980] I wouldn't want every race weekend to be like
[16:46.980 -> 16:49.340] Drive Survive in the aspect of everything dramatized
[16:49.340 -> 16:52.340] and have music and that, but you just see a lot more.
[16:52.340 -> 16:53.780] Do you know what gives me faith, man?
[16:53.780 -> 16:56.540] Is the fact that, I mean, if we're talking about this,
[16:56.540 -> 16:58.820] we're not the only people that feel that way.
[16:58.820 -> 17:01.220] And I feel like because we've been blessed
[17:01.220 -> 17:04.740] and we're lucky enough to have this platform that we do now
[17:04.740 -> 17:07.080] with the crazy ideas that we have like
[17:07.520 -> 17:09.720] You know if f1 aren't gonna do it then we are
[17:10.200 -> 17:13.580] Yeah, if I don't mean it in an in like an attacking way
[17:13.580 -> 17:18.240] But like we just we know what we want and we know that we're not the only people who want to see more of this
[17:18.240 -> 17:21.560] Stuff so if we can shine a light on that a bit more, it's happy days
[17:21.560 -> 17:26.960] Yeah, we know what we're trying to build and we're sticking on our path. The race season's here, we've got our plans for the year.
[17:26.960 -> 17:28.640] Testing?
[17:28.640 -> 17:32.080] Well, before that, I think it would be good to say we're going to have to do another pod on Sunday
[17:32.080 -> 17:37.440] because that's when we next upload. Please do send in questions on pitstop at Instagram
[17:37.440 -> 17:42.240] about Drive Survive. A box will go up after this, ask us anything you want to know about it,
[17:42.240 -> 17:45.040] and then in Sunday's episode after our race roundup, we can talk about anything you want to know about it. And then in Sunday's episode, after our race roundup,
[17:45.040 -> 17:46.600] we can talk about anything you want to know
[17:46.600 -> 17:47.440] about Drive Survive.
[17:47.440 -> 17:49.120] If you want our opinions on stuff,
[17:49.120 -> 17:52.560] do you want to just give it a rating out of 10?
[17:52.560 -> 17:54.760] It definitely wasn't as good as other seasons for me.
[17:54.760 -> 17:56.320] I mean, nothing beats the season for me
[17:56.320 -> 17:58.040] where I put two tires on wrong.
[17:58.040 -> 17:59.800] Judging it off the previous ones.
[17:59.800 -> 18:01.280] Well, just out of, yeah, I guess,
[18:01.280 -> 18:02.800] but what else are you going to judge it off?
[18:02.800 -> 18:03.640] Yeah.
[18:04.560 -> 18:05.760] Maybe like a seven and a half,
[18:05.760 -> 18:08.980] maybe an eight, seven, 7.85.
[18:08.980 -> 18:10.520] Yeah, give a seven as well.
[18:10.520 -> 18:11.960] Three, three recurring.
[18:11.960 -> 18:14.240] Don't get me wrong, it would have been straight 10
[18:14.240 -> 18:17.800] if we were in it, even for like 0.1 seconds.
[18:17.800 -> 18:18.720] It would have been glorious.
[18:18.720 -> 18:20.240] It was great.
[18:20.240 -> 18:21.080] But yeah, like I said,
[18:21.080 -> 18:22.640] I just feel like it is gonna need a big change.
[18:22.640 -> 18:23.720] It'd be really interesting to hear
[18:23.720 -> 18:24.760] what everyone else thinks.
[18:24.760 -> 18:28.480] Before we get into testing, mate, there's one thing that I had written down a couple of days ago
[18:28.480 -> 18:30.000] that I wanted to talk about.
[18:30.000 -> 18:31.600] It's about the Barcelona circuit.
[18:31.600 -> 18:33.800] I don't know if you've heard or seen anything about it.
[18:33.800 -> 18:38.400] I saw a tweet, something about a chicane being removed, but I don't know.
[18:38.400 -> 18:43.320] It popped into my head because I was playing it on the sim the other, earlier, last night, whenever that was.
[18:43.320 -> 18:47.560] And yeah, there's a horrible chicane right at the end of Barcelona super slow they're actually
[18:47.560 -> 18:52.360] removing it why for this year don't know just like why have it there anyway I
[18:52.360 -> 18:55.760] think it'd be more interesting without because they have more speed well I've
[18:55.760 -> 18:59.520] seen a pretty sure so Matt Gallagher post something and it was like saying
[18:59.520 -> 19:02.720] how much like quicker it's going to be and everyone's excited about it like
[19:02.720 -> 19:05.680] it's a big thing like that they've done this I saw used to be and everyone's excited about it. Like, I think it's a big thing, like that they've done this. I saw-
[19:05.680 -> 19:07.880] Did it not used to be there or something?
[19:07.880 -> 19:09.560] What have I got written here?
[19:09.560 -> 19:13.600] It was introduced in 2007, this chicane.
[19:13.600 -> 19:15.360] Don't ask me when Barcelona was built.
[19:15.360 -> 19:16.400] Well, it's been there ever since
[19:16.400 -> 19:17.400] and now they've took it out.
[19:17.400 -> 19:18.680] Ever since 2007.
[19:18.680 -> 19:20.640] But I saw an amazing clip of Alonso,
[19:20.640 -> 19:22.560] it was an onboard camera of Alonso,
[19:22.560 -> 19:25.480] just flying, flying without the chicane.
[19:26.440 -> 19:28.000] So it should open up a little bit.
[19:28.000 -> 19:30.920] Yeah, maybe we see Alonso win Barcelona this year,
[19:30.920 -> 19:31.760] who knows?
[19:31.760 -> 19:33.120] Mate, well, when we get into talking about
[19:33.120 -> 19:35.120] that Aston Martin, it looks exciting.
[19:35.120 -> 19:36.080] Australia as well.
[19:36.080 -> 19:36.920] Yeah, yeah.
[19:36.920 -> 19:38.400] Full ERS zones.
[19:38.400 -> 19:39.600] What, is there?
[19:39.600 -> 19:40.440] I'm pretty sure, yeah.
[19:40.440 -> 19:41.280] With four?
[19:41.280 -> 19:42.960] Yeah, don't quote me on that, all right.
[19:42.960 -> 19:43.800] Four ERS zones.
[19:43.800 -> 19:45.500] We could be going viral on TikTok with that one.
[19:45.500 -> 19:46.340] And a loop-de-loop.
[19:46.340 -> 19:48.000] No, because I swear it was free and now...
[19:48.000 -> 19:51.300] It had a bridge with a fissure in it.
[19:51.300 -> 19:54.180] Barstoolite, they're also widening the runoff area
[19:54.180 -> 19:55.680] into turn one.
[19:55.680 -> 19:56.640] Now they're just showing off.
[19:56.640 -> 19:59.380] Which features 70 more meters of gravel
[19:59.380 -> 20:01.980] with a 5% slope radius
[20:01.980 -> 20:03.640] and some extra barriers along the way.
[20:03.640 -> 20:04.480] Yeah, I was going to say.
[20:04.480 -> 20:05.240] Yeah, just to make it
[20:05.240 -> 20:09.000] It's to make it safer for the drivers. Yeah, which just for everyone know that no worries
[20:09.000 -> 20:13.120] That's your Barcelona facts out the way out the way Suzy wolf has been a point
[20:13.120 -> 20:18.400] Wow, you are managing director of f1 Academy. That is really really good
[20:19.280 -> 20:21.280] Suzy congratulations
[20:21.720 -> 20:26.000] Because honestly being dead honest don't really know much about Suzy Wolf.
[20:26.000 -> 20:29.000] Was she doing eSports? No, sorry, fucking hell, I'm useless.
[20:29.000 -> 20:32.000] She was doing Formula E.
[20:32.000 -> 20:33.000] Thank you.
[20:33.000 -> 20:35.000] Yeah, she was like the head of Formula E, wasn't she?
[20:35.000 -> 20:38.000] No, she was team principal of Mercedes in Formula E.
[20:38.000 -> 20:41.000] Yeah, so she's got the experience anyway.
[20:41.000 -> 20:45.040] She's fucking married to like the biggest boss man in the paddock.
[20:45.040 -> 20:45.880] Yeah, he knows what he's doing.
[20:45.880 -> 20:47.000] That would have rubbed off a little bit.
[20:47.000 -> 20:47.840] Yeah.
[20:47.840 -> 20:48.660] Do you know what I mean?
[20:48.660 -> 20:50.600] And F1 Academy, if it's gonna be as good
[20:50.600 -> 20:51.720] as they're hoping it's gonna be,
[20:51.720 -> 20:55.460] then she is clearly the queen to rule it all.
[20:55.460 -> 20:57.360] She's gonna get great advice on and off the track.
[20:57.360 -> 20:58.200] That's for sure.
[20:58.200 -> 20:59.040] So is it starting this year?
[20:59.040 -> 21:00.320] Is it, do you know much about it?
[21:00.320 -> 21:02.160] No, we will cover that in an episode soon
[21:02.160 -> 21:03.000] once we actually figure it out.
[21:03.000 -> 21:03.840] We really should.
[21:03.840 -> 21:06.860] I actually, I don't think they've actually said much about it anyway.
[21:06.900 -> 21:12.820] No, I see the post on Instagram and I'm, that's how I'm learning, but genuinely they haven't said anything about it on TV
[21:12.820 -> 21:17.620] so I don't know yet. No. But when we, when we do figure out. But I will miss W Series
[21:17.620 -> 21:22.860] so it'd be nice to have something. Yeah, W Series was fun at Silverstone, seeing everyone. We met some of the drivers, that was great.
[21:23.020 -> 21:25.080] Mm-hmm. Yeah,, well let's see.
[21:25.080 -> 21:27.760] But testing, yeah, Dragovic.
[21:27.760 -> 21:30.240] Felipe Dragovic.
[21:30.240 -> 21:31.080] Warmy green trousers today, mate.
[21:31.080 -> 21:34.280] Has been flying for Dragovic, I like it.
[21:34.280 -> 21:35.320] How weird is it?
[21:35.320 -> 21:37.200] Because it was only a couple of months ago,
[21:37.200 -> 21:40.400] he sat on our sofa and we spoke about the thought of him
[21:41.200 -> 21:42.840] being an F1 driver.
[21:42.840 -> 21:43.680] Weird, innit?
[21:43.680 -> 21:45.040] And here we are, we're, you know,
[21:45.040 -> 21:48.520] like four days out of the first race of the season.
[21:48.520 -> 21:51.200] And it looks quite likely that Dragovic
[21:51.200 -> 21:53.080] is gonna be racing for Aston Martin.
[21:53.080 -> 21:54.520] I'm not a doctor.
[21:54.520 -> 21:55.520] No.
[21:55.520 -> 21:57.000] I'm not a nurse.
[21:57.000 -> 21:59.920] I am not, I've never been to medical school.
[21:59.920 -> 22:02.560] If I cut myself, I'll cry.
[22:02.560 -> 22:04.520] Anything like that, I just, I'm not good with it.
[22:04.520 -> 22:06.360] A bit squeamish, to be honest with you.
[22:06.360 -> 22:09.240] But I am not entirely sure.
[22:09.240 -> 22:12.280] I don't know how bad the crash from Lance was,
[22:12.280 -> 22:14.000] but if his bike crash was bad
[22:14.000 -> 22:16.640] and he has broken both wrists, he's out.
[22:16.640 -> 22:18.800] He's out for, he's got to be eight weeks.
[22:18.800 -> 22:20.960] It has to be too much.
[22:20.960 -> 22:24.880] You can't drive a racing car with like semi broken wrists.
[22:24.880 -> 22:29.880] So this motherfucker who's behind my head on the board,
[22:30.160 -> 22:32.760] I reckon he's going to do at least two or three races
[22:32.760 -> 22:35.700] with Aston Martin, which is unbelievable.
[22:35.700 -> 22:37.120] Yeah, we'll see.
[22:37.120 -> 22:40.160] I mean, the rumors are that he has broken both his wrists
[22:40.160 -> 22:42.040] and yeah, if he has broken both his wrists,
[22:42.040 -> 22:43.240] you're never coming back from that.
[22:43.240 -> 22:46.240] Obviously, no matter what, wish Lance a speedy recovery,
[22:46.240 -> 22:48.640] but I am gonna be completely biased here and say,
[22:48.640 -> 22:50.160] I'd love to see Dragovic in the car
[22:50.160 -> 22:51.520] because this guy is our friend
[22:51.520 -> 22:53.440] and he comes to the flat in his class.
[22:53.440 -> 22:56.720] And he might have, when he was sat here
[22:56.720 -> 22:58.080] and we were talking to him about F1,
[22:58.080 -> 22:59.600] in his head, he might have thought to himself,
[22:59.600 -> 23:00.560] you know what, there's still a chance
[23:00.560 -> 23:02.800] I could never even get to drive that car.
[23:02.800 -> 23:05.880] So the fact that two months later he's in it,
[23:05.880 -> 23:07.760] just testing was enough for me.
[23:07.760 -> 23:09.400] But not only that,
[23:09.400 -> 23:13.360] the Aston Martin is actually really quick.
[23:13.360 -> 23:14.760] Yeah, it actually is.
[23:14.760 -> 23:15.600] It is.
[23:15.600 -> 23:16.440] That's so exciting.
[23:16.440 -> 23:18.680] I just, as you were talking, it just hit me there.
[23:18.680 -> 23:20.600] I feel like I'm on Jimmy Fallon.
[23:20.600 -> 23:22.960] Well, it does feel, we are like on a Jimmy Fallon show.
[23:22.960 -> 23:23.800] Jonathan Watts, Salah, blah, blah, blah.
[23:23.800 -> 23:26.200] It was quite fun, that was that. No, yeah, the A. It's quite fun now, it's that.
[23:26.200 -> 23:28.560] No, yeah, the Aston Martin's looking unbelievably quick,
[23:28.560 -> 23:29.400] which is great.
[23:29.400 -> 23:31.480] I mean, for me, it's great for Felipe,
[23:31.480 -> 23:33.120] it's great for Alonso.
[23:33.120 -> 23:36.120] I wanna see him up there racing.
[23:36.120 -> 23:37.680] I can't wait to get my predictions
[23:37.680 -> 23:39.840] for the first race of the season at the end, mate.
[23:39.840 -> 23:42.160] The race predictions are back.
[23:42.160 -> 23:43.000] Oh God.
[23:43.000 -> 23:44.560] They're not gonna be any better, just to let you know, guys.
[23:44.560 -> 23:46.000] Pissed Off Podcast is alive today.
[23:46.000 -> 23:48.000] I'm going to have a little sip of my Red Bull.
[23:48.000 -> 23:49.000] Are you feeling alive?
[23:49.000 -> 23:50.000] It must be the Red Bull!
[23:50.000 -> 23:51.000] Let's have a cheers mate.
[23:51.000 -> 23:52.000] Cheers.
[23:52.000 -> 23:54.000] Season 2, Race 1.
[23:54.000 -> 23:56.000] Cheers.
[23:56.000 -> 23:58.000] Wow, what a time to be alive.
[23:58.000 -> 24:00.000] What a year for Pitstop.
[24:00.000 -> 24:02.000] Thank you so much to everyone who's been listening for a long time.
[24:02.000 -> 24:03.000] Quite hoppy.
[24:03.000 -> 24:05.840] If you are new here, this is our second year into F1.
[24:05.840 -> 24:09.160] If you've never listened to a pod before, please rate it five stars, hit the follow
[24:09.160 -> 24:10.160] button.
[24:10.160 -> 24:11.160] Helps us out.
[24:11.160 -> 24:14.240] A fruity aftertaste with a nice kick at the end.
[24:14.240 -> 24:16.960] I'll tell you what we do, every episode we sit like this for race, we'll have a different
[24:16.960 -> 24:17.960] flavour of Red Bull.
[24:17.960 -> 24:20.080] So today we just got the normal one.
[24:20.080 -> 24:21.080] Because someone said we should do a taste.
[24:21.080 -> 24:22.320] We should have had something displayed, mate.
[24:22.320 -> 24:24.120] Now we've given Red Bull enough brownie.
[24:24.120 -> 24:27.000] Guys, Red Bull, if you're alright, send us a mini fridge please.
[24:27.000 -> 24:29.000] Because there's a big gap.
[24:29.000 -> 24:31.000] There's a big gap in our wall.
[24:31.000 -> 24:33.000] That sounded really shitty.
[24:33.000 -> 24:34.000] Do you know what we haven't done?
[24:34.000 -> 24:36.000] I need to just clear that out, that's what made me sound like a spoiled brat.
[24:36.000 -> 24:37.000] What?
[24:37.000 -> 24:38.000] Red Bull, send us a mini fridge.
[24:38.000 -> 24:41.000] No, that was a joke because I said to someone the other day, Red Bull we would love a mini fridge.
[24:41.000 -> 24:44.000] You can't send us like 50 cans of Red Bull and not send us a fridge to put them in.
[24:44.000 -> 24:46.720] How are we going to have space for food?
[24:46.720 -> 24:49.600] Now we have to order take-out food every day.
[24:49.600 -> 24:56.320] The fridge is 100% full of cans, other than one drawer full of like a mouldy cabbage and some butter.
[24:56.320 -> 25:00.800] Oi! Oi! I've been eating the cabbage and the parsley and all that.
[25:00.800 -> 25:08.640] One thing we didn't do, today the bottom of the shelves are a little bit more exposed as you can see, but we haven't really filled them out properly with any proper
[25:08.640 -> 25:09.640] items.
[25:09.640 -> 25:10.920] Oh, I didn't think that. Do you reckon you could see them?
[25:10.920 -> 25:11.920] Yeah.
[25:11.920 -> 25:12.920] Oh no.
[25:12.920 -> 25:13.920] Yeah, you got my little boots over there.
[25:13.920 -> 25:15.480] Look, the background will get better every week.
[25:15.480 -> 25:17.600] You got some passes here.
[25:17.600 -> 25:21.640] Yeah, but mate, this is a podcast, people can't hear, people can't see. Back to testing,
[25:21.640 -> 25:22.640] back to testing.
[25:22.640 -> 25:23.640] Right.
[25:23.640 -> 25:26.320] I've got it here. I've actually got the fastest laps
[25:26.320 -> 25:28.420] of pre-season testing by team.
[25:28.420 -> 25:29.840] So who come out quicker?
[25:29.840 -> 25:31.600] Well, the biggest takeaways were Red Bull
[25:31.600 -> 25:32.680] were very, very quick.
[25:32.680 -> 25:34.340] And McLaren were very, very slow.
[25:35.520 -> 25:36.360] Okay.
[25:36.360 -> 25:38.920] And now we're going to start to cross into the ground
[25:38.920 -> 25:42.440] that I am absolutely hating about the podcast.
[25:42.440 -> 25:44.000] And it's the fact that we're going to have to talk
[25:44.000 -> 25:48.480] about people we know. And genuinely, that's a weird thing because I never thought this
[25:48.480 -> 25:52.000] would happen I never but I never thought we'd actually know these drivers that's
[25:52.000 -> 25:55.320] alright this is work in it this is business don't know I don't know play in
[25:55.320 -> 25:58.660] business whatever they know and it's sick but like but who are you talking
[25:58.660 -> 26:03.480] about who do we know scar right the Alpine looks very quick and the
[26:03.480 -> 26:06.000] McLaren looks very slow.
[26:06.000 -> 26:09.000] So what Jake's basically trying to say here is, Oscar, you fucked up.
[26:09.000 -> 26:12.000] Oscar, you went to the wrong team.
[26:12.000 -> 26:15.000] All this hype on DTS ain't nothing.
[26:15.000 -> 26:17.000] You should have just gone with Alpine.
[26:17.000 -> 26:19.000] It's tough, okay.
[26:19.000 -> 26:21.000] They could be sandbagging.
[26:21.000 -> 26:25.480] McLaren could be sandbagging hard, but the worry is, okay.
[26:25.480 -> 26:26.840] Please explain that to me again.
[26:26.840 -> 26:28.960] This is how I'm going to explain it to you.
[26:28.960 -> 26:32.360] Alpine come out of testing with,
[26:32.360 -> 26:33.800] on the fastest laps leaderboard,
[26:33.800 -> 26:35.680] like out of all teams, they got the slowest one.
[26:35.680 -> 26:38.880] They're last out of who got the actual fastest lap.
[26:38.880 -> 26:40.200] That make sense?
[26:40.200 -> 26:41.640] That's the fastest lap.
[26:41.640 -> 26:42.600] So like, for example,
[26:42.600 -> 26:45.160] Williams got a faster lap than Alpine
[26:49.560 -> 26:53.840] Overall, but that's overall is everyone's running different strategies. What can you really take from testing? But the reason I'm using Alpine as an example is because I don't know if you remember from the launch
[26:53.960 -> 26:56.960] But I also saw on TV that their number one mechanic
[26:56.960 -> 27:01.520] I was slashed but their number one mechanic mentioned they've managed to get their car underweight
[27:02.480 -> 27:08.280] Now Alpine car is very underweight, which not a lot of the other cars aren't.
[27:08.280 -> 27:10.720] And because of that, Alpine explained at the launch,
[27:10.720 -> 27:12.400] don't know if we should actually say this shit.
[27:12.400 -> 27:13.240] Like I don't know.
[27:13.240 -> 27:14.200] It was on TV.
[27:14.200 -> 27:15.240] Yeah, it's fine.
[27:15.240 -> 27:18.040] That they've been moving the weight around the car.
[27:18.040 -> 27:21.000] And I feel like a team that has the ability
[27:21.000 -> 27:23.720] to move weight around a car, because they can,
[27:23.720 -> 27:27.840] is going to add a fucking a bit more in sandbag and make people believe that they're not as quick as they are.
[27:28.720 -> 27:34.320] And also they looked really quick. They may look last here but they were quick. That alpine is good.
[27:34.320 -> 27:37.520] Well there's a lot of paint on them which says something.
[27:37.520 -> 27:38.000] Is there?
[27:38.000 -> 27:40.960] I don't know what it says but a lot of paint means something.
[27:40.960 -> 27:45.080] Did we talk about the fact in the last pod that it's 6kg?
[27:45.080 -> 27:46.120] Did we do that?
[27:46.120 -> 27:47.800] We did in the last one and I've completely forgot.
[27:47.800 -> 27:48.640] No we didn't, we didn't talk about it.
[27:48.640 -> 27:49.900] Well we figured it out.
[27:49.900 -> 27:52.440] If you remember then we weighed Fab's head and it was 33,
[27:52.440 -> 27:53.920] we were both 32kg.
[27:53.920 -> 27:54.760] Yeah.
[27:54.760 -> 27:56.980] And then we spoke about it a couple of pods after that,
[27:56.980 -> 27:57.820] the weight of the-
[27:57.820 -> 27:58.640] It wasn't embarrassing.
[27:58.640 -> 27:59.480] No, it was great.
[27:59.480 -> 28:01.240] The weight of the paint on the car,
[28:01.240 -> 28:02.840] like the difference of why they do it.
[28:02.840 -> 28:04.240] It's 6kg.
[28:04.240 -> 28:05.660] The amount.
[28:05.660 -> 28:07.780] What is six kg?
[28:07.780 -> 28:12.280] Like, six kg is probably like the weight of a kettle.
[28:12.280 -> 28:13.120] No?
[28:13.120 -> 28:14.000] No.
[28:14.000 -> 28:15.840] Your head weighs 32 kg.
[28:15.840 -> 28:18.720] Yeah, so like six kg is...
[28:18.720 -> 28:22.180] How much do you reckon this can of Red Bull full weighs?
[28:22.180 -> 28:24.920] I'd say that's probably like six kg, mate.
[28:24.920 -> 28:26.440] No way!
[28:26.440 -> 28:28.160] That probably weighs more than your head,
[28:28.160 -> 28:29.520] he's holding up a Fanatec wheel.
[28:29.520 -> 28:30.680] Not at all, not at all.
[28:30.680 -> 28:32.480] I'd say three quarters of that.
[28:32.480 -> 28:36.000] So the way I picture it is a 10 kg weight in the gym.
[28:36.000 -> 28:36.840] Yeah.
[28:36.840 -> 28:37.840] Is heavier than that.
[28:37.840 -> 28:38.920] Yeah.
[28:38.920 -> 28:40.280] But it's basically,
[28:40.280 -> 28:42.880] it's actually a lot heavier than I thought.
[28:42.880 -> 28:44.720] For some reason, I didn't really imagine paint
[28:44.720 -> 28:45.720] actually having weight.
[28:45.720 -> 28:46.560] 6kg.
[28:47.720 -> 28:49.480] Is that wheel actually 6kg?
[28:49.480 -> 28:51.520] That's a lie, but I reckon it is.
[28:51.520 -> 28:53.760] I never imagined paint actually having weight.
[28:55.000 -> 28:57.640] Yeah, well, yeah, it does.
[28:57.640 -> 28:58.480] It does.
[28:58.480 -> 29:01.200] F1, everything's so, you gotta be so precise.
[29:01.200 -> 29:03.180] What I don't get though, is that like,
[29:03.180 -> 29:05.520] they always talk about weight, weight, weight, weight, weight
[29:05.520 -> 29:07.960] but like if everyone like has to be 80 kg,
[29:07.960 -> 29:10.000] driver, seat and car,
[29:10.000 -> 29:11.560] sorry, that's driver and seat isn't it?
[29:11.560 -> 29:12.960] It has to be 80 kg.
[29:12.960 -> 29:14.480] If the, yeah, facts.
[29:14.480 -> 29:15.320] Facts.
[29:15.320 -> 29:16.280] You're asking the wrong person.
[29:16.280 -> 29:17.120] No, it's true.
[29:17.120 -> 29:19.280] Yeah, driver and seat must weigh 80 kg.
[29:19.280 -> 29:20.120] Okay.
[29:20.120 -> 29:21.680] So that's when they start putting the weighting down.
[29:21.680 -> 29:24.560] But like, if they all have to be the same anyway.
[29:24.560 -> 29:28.000] Yes. What's the fucking issue if you all have to be 80
[29:28.000 -> 29:35.040] or below or whatever it is how many teams are so far below 80 is that make
[29:35.040 -> 29:38.680] any sense no they all have to be it if you're underweight you have to add
[29:38.680 -> 29:41.760] ballast you can't be underweight yeah but they can't be you can they be over
[29:41.760 -> 29:48.560] it they can't be over it no so over it? They can't be over it. No. So everyone has to be so far on the dot. Well you think about it like this, the weight you
[29:48.560 -> 29:52.480] go into the race with, you're never going to get heavier because the driver loses weight.
[29:52.480 -> 29:56.800] So as long as they are, I would, if we're wrong here then we look really stupid. No
[29:56.800 -> 30:00.320] that makes sense because they sweat. I'd assume they go into the race on weight. Yeah. And
[30:00.320 -> 30:04.000] then after the race they sweat it out. Well they have to weigh themselves after the race
[30:04.000 -> 30:06.200] as well don't they? Well do you reckon they risk it? Don't weigh it before it and then after the race they sweat it out. Well, they have to weigh themselves after the race as well, don't they? Or do you reckon they risk it?
[30:06.200 -> 30:08.000] They don't weigh it before it, and then after the race,
[30:08.000 -> 30:09.720] they just hope the driver's lost a load of weight.
[30:09.720 -> 30:10.920] I don't really know.
[30:10.920 -> 30:12.000] It's one of those situations
[30:12.000 -> 30:13.400] where we don't really know the answer,
[30:13.400 -> 30:14.880] and we're trying to figure it out,
[30:14.880 -> 30:16.640] and there's probably people at home
[30:16.640 -> 30:18.480] screaming at us with the answer.
[30:18.480 -> 30:19.320] Yeah.
[30:20.120 -> 30:22.120] I'd really love to go get stuck into this simulator.
[30:22.120 -> 30:23.920] Oh, no, we've got a few things to do first.
[30:23.920 -> 30:24.760] That is exciting.
[30:24.760 -> 30:26.000] Well, I haven't even gone through these yet.
[30:26.000 -> 30:26.500] What?
[30:26.500 -> 30:28.500] I need to, I need to, well, talk about wait.
[30:28.500 -> 30:32.500] Alfa Romeo will be slowed down by Valtteri Bottas' mullet.
[30:32.500 -> 30:35.500] Valtteri Bottas' got lovely helmet, lovely helmet hair,
[30:35.500 -> 30:37.500] but they did come third.
[30:37.500 -> 30:40.500] Alfa Romeo did clock the third fastest time in testing.
[30:40.500 -> 30:41.000] Really?
[30:41.000 -> 30:41.500] Well the leader...
[30:41.500 -> 30:44.500] And Valtteri Bottas had a hand in designing the car.
[30:44.500 -> 30:45.080] In the car? Yeah, yeah. Ias had a hand in designing the car.
[30:45.080 -> 30:45.920] In the car?
[30:45.920 -> 30:46.740] Yeah, yeah.
[30:46.740 -> 30:48.680] I knew he designed his helmet with his girlfriend.
[30:48.680 -> 30:53.040] The car, he said, Valtteri Bottas had a certain hand
[30:53.040 -> 30:53.880] in creating this car.
[30:53.880 -> 30:54.720] Left or right?
[30:54.720 -> 30:56.680] What did he do?
[30:56.680 -> 30:57.760] The third arm.
[30:57.760 -> 30:58.600] Oh.
[30:58.600 -> 31:01.200] Yeah, and yeah, he said, so if the car's fast,
[31:01.200 -> 31:02.280] it's because of me.
[31:02.280 -> 31:05.680] If it's slow, I fucked up basically, that's what he said.
[31:05.680 -> 31:07.240] So that's quite cool to know.
[31:07.240 -> 31:08.840] Fernando Alonso has also been going running
[31:08.840 -> 31:09.880] with Felipe Dragovic.
[31:09.880 -> 31:10.700] Now that.
[31:10.700 -> 31:11.540] They have been.
[31:11.540 -> 31:12.560] That. They really have been.
[31:12.560 -> 31:13.560] Is really cool.
[31:13.560 -> 31:14.400] It's really cool.
[31:14.400 -> 31:15.240] Let me, sorry, can I just go through?
[31:15.240 -> 31:16.600] Yeah, go through that top 10, read out.
[31:16.600 -> 31:19.980] These are the fastest times in testing by each team.
[31:19.980 -> 31:22.820] So Alfa Romeo are quicker than Ferrari.
[31:24.120 -> 31:26.260] This is testing times, it's nothing to go by
[31:26.260 -> 31:28.860] and this is posted by F1, so no one can come and press.
[31:28.860 -> 31:30.780] That's probably a load of baloney.
[31:30.780 -> 31:31.780] That's incorrect.
[31:31.780 -> 31:33.820] It's definitely correct.
[31:33.820 -> 31:36.100] Haas have got a little update to their graphic,
[31:36.100 -> 31:37.020] they've got the little money.
[31:37.020 -> 31:39.820] No one listening can see what you're looking at,
[31:39.820 -> 31:40.860] you have to read out.
[31:40.860 -> 31:42.560] I'm reading it out, Haas have had an update
[31:42.560 -> 31:43.400] to their graphic.
[31:43.400 -> 31:44.900] No one can see it.
[31:44.900 -> 31:49.560] You're sitting there quiet going, oh, Ha an update to their graphic no one can see it you know you're sitting in quiet going all has about it up no one can see
[31:49.560 -> 31:52.600] it I'm just about to explain it but you stole the phone they have the money
[31:52.600 -> 31:57.000] grams on their back or money gram hearts now but no other team has done that I
[31:57.000 -> 31:59.880] love the way about for a mayo steak where steak on their logo they're all
[31:59.880 -> 32:02.760] having to change their Instagram usernames as well they're actually
[32:02.760 -> 32:07.200] changing the proper user to reckon they do you reckon they hold on to the old ones?
[32:07.200 -> 32:08.040] In case they have to switch back.
[32:08.040 -> 32:09.560] Should we claim them?
[32:09.560 -> 32:11.400] Should I claim half of them?
[32:11.400 -> 32:13.120] Should I start claiming the team's names?
[32:13.120 -> 32:15.000] If we claim like, HASS F1.
[32:15.000 -> 32:17.120] You can have it back if we can have an hour with Gunther.
[32:17.120 -> 32:18.520] That would be great, we should do it.
[32:18.520 -> 32:19.360] Blackmail him, blackmail him.
[32:19.360 -> 32:20.480] We actually should.
[32:20.480 -> 32:22.600] All right, we're gonna come after, go on, top tens.
[32:22.600 -> 32:24.520] Yeah, this is very, very, very weird.
[32:24.520 -> 32:31.520] You've got Red Bull fastest, Mercedes second, and there's only three tenths of a second between them Alfa Romeo in third Ferrari fourth
[32:32.120 -> 32:34.120] Alfa Tauri and fifth
[32:34.440 -> 32:40.120] Yeah, what's that all about? I just feel like there's there is there's some sus stuff going on here, mate
[32:40.120 -> 32:46.040] I don't trust this man at all for me for me., it's AlphaTauri are bottom with Willian.
[32:46.040 -> 32:48.800] I'm genuinely looking at that, to be honest.
[32:48.800 -> 32:51.280] No, no, hear me out, hear me out.
[32:51.280 -> 32:53.880] Right, I think of this list,
[32:53.880 -> 32:57.640] that AlphaTauri didn't sandbag at all.
[32:57.640 -> 33:00.000] They completely went for it with the car they've got,
[33:00.000 -> 33:01.360] and so did Williams.
[33:01.360 -> 33:03.800] And I think them two are reasonably at the bottom.
[33:03.800 -> 33:06.000] I think the rest of the teams here will be above them
[33:06.000 -> 33:06.840] and they sandbagged.
[33:06.840 -> 33:09.600] So I'm basically saying I think Haas, Aston Martin,
[33:09.600 -> 33:12.040] McLaren, and Alpine were all sandbagging.
[33:12.040 -> 33:14.320] I think it's gonna be fairly the same as last year.
[33:14.320 -> 33:18.080] I think Mercedes marginally quicker than last year.
[33:18.080 -> 33:20.440] I still think the fight is between Red Bull and Ferrari
[33:20.440 -> 33:22.360] with Mercedes getting in that mix.
[33:22.360 -> 33:23.840] So I think the top three,
[33:23.840 -> 33:24.680] you know, I don't know what the fuck
[33:24.680 -> 33:25.680] Alfa Romeo's doing up there.
[33:25.680 -> 33:27.160] That's not going to stay.
[33:27.160 -> 33:28.240] Well, that's what we can do then.
[33:28.240 -> 33:30.200] I can see Alfa Romeo being a surprise
[33:30.200 -> 33:31.840] and being a strong midfield team.
[33:31.840 -> 33:33.200] Who gets more points out of that team,
[33:33.200 -> 33:34.040] Bottas or Joe?
[33:34.920 -> 33:36.040] Valtteri.
[33:36.040 -> 33:37.360] 100%.
[33:37.360 -> 33:39.900] Yeah, I mean, yeah, for sure, probably,
[33:39.900 -> 33:41.240] but Joe is a good driver.
[33:41.240 -> 33:43.560] So who's quicker, Alfa Romeo or McLaren?
[33:46.000 -> 33:47.120] McLaren.
[33:47.120 -> 33:49.160] I do think McLaren will pick it out of the bag.
[33:49.160 -> 33:50.520] It was interesting what they were saying.
[33:50.520 -> 33:53.580] I watched an interview on Sky or on somewhere.
[33:53.580 -> 33:55.200] They were saying that they were developing parts
[33:55.200 -> 33:57.760] from last year that just got really delayed.
[33:57.760 -> 33:59.120] And I feel like they're still trying
[33:59.120 -> 34:00.440] to catch up a little bit.
[34:01.400 -> 34:04.000] Don't get me wrong though.
[34:04.000 -> 34:05.440] We're going to just have to keep talking about it
[34:05.440 -> 34:08.640] because you can't avoid the inevitable if that McLaren comes out and is that
[34:08.640 -> 34:13.000] slow obviously Lando's gonna be pissed I mean I'd be pissed as well they down
[34:13.000 -> 34:15.760] played it at the launch and everything they even said like you know it's not
[34:15.760 -> 34:33.760] gonna be the quickest car on the grid and did they well hopefully we're gonna try yeah they did say something about it they did they did
[34:33.760 -> 34:41.800] yeah well we're testing let's give let's finally do our first predictions of the
[34:41.800 -> 34:45.760] season and let's see who is more accurate. Don't take the piss,
[34:45.760 -> 34:46.760] because you've said Oscar Piastri
[34:46.760 -> 34:48.600] is going to win the World Drivers' Championship.
[34:48.600 -> 34:50.160] What do you mean take the piss?
[34:50.160 -> 34:52.120] It's been deadly serious.
[34:52.120 -> 34:54.880] When we said it, I was hoping the same thing as well.
[34:54.880 -> 34:56.240] And if they were sandbagging hard,
[34:56.240 -> 34:57.480] then Oscar were right behind you.
[34:57.480 -> 34:58.800] No, I will be.
[34:58.800 -> 35:00.840] They need to put a bit of nitrous in your car, mate,
[35:00.840 -> 35:01.680] I think.
[35:01.680 -> 35:03.200] I will be deadly serious about this one.
[35:03.200 -> 35:05.800] All right, give me your third place
[35:05.800 -> 35:07.960] for Bahrain this weekend.
[35:07.960 -> 35:09.360] Who's gonna get on that podium?
[35:09.360 -> 35:12.200] Third place for Bahrain this weekend,
[35:12.200 -> 35:16.000] making the podium, I have Sir Lewis Hamilton.
[35:16.000 -> 35:17.600] Sir Lewis Hamilton third.
[35:17.600 -> 35:18.420] Yep.
[35:18.420 -> 35:19.260] Fair.
[35:19.260 -> 35:20.880] What about you?
[35:20.880 -> 35:24.720] Third place, Carlos Sainz.
[35:26.920 -> 35:27.760] I think-
[35:27.760 -> 35:28.600] Any weight behind that?
[35:28.600 -> 35:29.420] Yeah.
[35:29.420 -> 35:30.260] What's the reasoning?
[35:30.260 -> 35:31.600] There is weight behind it.
[35:31.600 -> 35:36.000] Like 80 kg to be precise.
[35:36.000 -> 35:36.840] No, it's-
[35:36.840 -> 35:37.680] I love a good F100.
[35:37.680 -> 35:38.600] I won't bore people,
[35:38.600 -> 35:41.360] but it actually goes back to drive and survive a little bit.
[35:41.360 -> 35:43.720] When I watched it, I really realized that like, wow,
[35:43.720 -> 35:45.480] a lot of these people,
[35:45.480 -> 35:49.240] to us, we look at it and it's like the Ferrari drivers, the team painting it all happy, you
[35:49.240 -> 35:52.240] know, everybody doing everything together, we're the two drivers, and it is like that
[35:52.240 -> 35:56.120] with every team, but realistically they both want to win. And there's no way at the beginning
[35:56.120 -> 35:59.680] of the season that Carlos is going to want to be the number two driver. And it's the
[35:59.680 -> 36:04.080] same with Checo, you have to go out in the first race and put in your max, and I just
[36:04.080 -> 36:06.560] feel like after the Clairs of last year of Shit Guy and Morong,
[36:06.560 -> 36:08.360] I think Sainz is gonna have the most.
[36:08.360 -> 36:10.600] He had so many DNFs last year, Sainz.
[36:10.600 -> 36:11.520] Six.
[36:11.520 -> 36:14.360] So I feel like he's just gonna come out of the blocks.
[36:14.360 -> 36:15.800] And I do think, yeah, third.
[36:15.800 -> 36:16.620] Second?
[36:16.620 -> 36:18.360] Third for Sainz, that's pretty good.
[36:18.360 -> 36:19.920] I think they're gonna be quick this year.
[36:19.920 -> 36:21.920] Well, you'd hope so, mate.
[36:21.920 -> 36:24.160] I mean, ultimately, you wanna see McLaren, Ferrari,
[36:24.160 -> 36:26.520] Mercedes, maybe even an Alpine.
[36:26.520 -> 36:28.440] Ferrari do have a little bit of an ointment,
[36:28.440 -> 36:31.200] a fly on the ointment because of Fred Bessur,
[36:31.200 -> 36:33.960] the change in team principal.
[36:33.960 -> 36:35.680] So who knows how that could go?
[36:35.680 -> 36:37.320] But I do think quick.
[36:37.320 -> 36:40.360] It's another weird one where when you're new to the sport,
[36:40.360 -> 36:41.920] that you look at that and you think,
[36:41.920 -> 36:44.880] why has someone from a team that haven't got that many
[36:44.880 -> 36:48.280] points gone and signed as the principal of a team that
[36:48.280 -> 36:49.440] should be winning?
[36:49.440 -> 36:51.040] I think Fred's been quite successful in the past.
[36:51.040 -> 36:52.880] Well that's what I mean, you're not buying it,
[36:52.880 -> 36:55.360] you're the experience, it's the person, isn't it?
[36:55.360 -> 36:56.200] Yeah.
[36:56.200 -> 36:59.080] Then I get it, and that's what I've had to learn as like a
[36:59.080 -> 37:01.200] new viewer, but that's been a weird adjustment.
[37:01.200 -> 37:02.400] There is a whole other story too,
[37:02.400 -> 37:05.320] because Benoito was actually fucking amazing.
[37:05.320 -> 37:08.400] Really, to bring Ferrari out of the dirt,
[37:08.400 -> 37:10.160] but that's another story.
[37:10.160 -> 37:11.260] Second place.
[37:14.040 -> 37:16.360] At Bahrain, Lewis Hamilton in third.
[37:16.360 -> 37:20.040] In second place, I would go for Charles Leclerc.
[37:20.040 -> 37:21.680] Okay, nice.
[37:21.680 -> 37:24.320] Well, last year was a double Ferrari one too, wasn't it?
[37:24.320 -> 37:25.120] Was it? Yeah, and both Red Bulls did. Of year it was a double Ferrari one-two, wasn't it? Was it?
[37:25.120 -> 37:26.280] Yeah, and both Red Bulls DNFed.
[37:26.280 -> 37:27.120] Of course it was.
[37:27.120 -> 37:28.160] Oh yeah, oh yeah.
[37:28.160 -> 37:29.860] Which I think's actually really crazy
[37:29.860 -> 37:31.600] that they DNFed in the first race
[37:31.600 -> 37:33.440] and then they won constructors and drivers.
[37:33.440 -> 37:34.280] That's just so sick.
[37:34.280 -> 37:36.160] Like, our first race are right off by the end of the year.
[37:36.160 -> 37:38.700] They've broken records for winning the most amount of races.
[37:38.700 -> 37:41.400] Okay, so you're going with Sergio Perez.
[37:41.400 -> 37:42.240] Who did you just say?
[37:42.240 -> 37:43.060] Charles Leclerc.
[37:43.060 -> 37:43.900] Charles Leclerc.
[37:43.900 -> 37:46.000] All right, you got Lewis Hamilton and then Charles Leclerc. Alright, you got Lewis Hammond and then Charles Leclerc.
[37:46.000 -> 37:51.000] I'm gonna go for Sergio Carlos Sainz and then...
[37:53.000 -> 37:55.000] Oh man.
[37:56.000 -> 37:57.000] Oh God.
[37:57.000 -> 37:58.000] No stupid ones.
[37:58.000 -> 37:59.000] Russell.
[38:00.000 -> 38:01.000] Oh, okay.
[38:01.000 -> 38:02.000] Russell second.
[38:02.000 -> 38:04.000] And then he said, who's Russell?
[38:04.000 -> 38:06.080] And in first place, it's Max Verst And in first place is Max Verstappen.
[38:07.200 -> 38:11.280] It's Max Verstappen. I would love to put Hammond on the podium and Leclerc but I think it's coming
[38:11.280 -> 38:15.600] but that's just my prediction. Who's winning view this weekend? So you've got Sainz, Russell
[38:16.480 -> 38:21.360] and Verstappen. Yes. Okay. I think all three teams will be there. Sainz over Leclerc.
[38:23.040 -> 38:27.040] I think we have to factor in. Yeah it doesn't make any I think we have to factor in, so yeah, it doesn't make any sense,
[38:27.040 -> 38:29.840] but we have to factor in things are gonna go wrong.
[38:29.840 -> 38:32.440] In the first few races, things are gonna go wrong.
[38:32.440 -> 38:35.640] Definitely, and you have to add all of that into.
[38:35.640 -> 38:38.200] That's it, when I was awakening the brain, mate.
[38:38.200 -> 38:40.120] Into the decision, you have to factor all these things in.
[38:40.120 -> 38:41.160] Oh, I was factoring it.
[38:41.160 -> 38:42.680] Which is why I'm going for Alonso first.
[38:42.680 -> 38:44.720] Yeah, Alonso first.
[38:44.720 -> 38:45.800] Fantastic. There's our Bahrain race predictions. There youoring it. Which is why I'm going for Alonso first. Yeah, Alonso first. Fantastic.
[38:45.800 -> 38:47.520] There's our Bahrain race predictions.
[38:47.520 -> 38:48.360] There you have it.
[38:48.360 -> 38:50.320] That means we can get started with the good stuff.
[38:50.320 -> 38:51.440] Ladies and gentlemen,
[38:51.440 -> 38:53.680] welcome to the first ever episode
[38:53.680 -> 38:56.200] of the Pit Stop Fastest Lap.
[38:56.200 -> 38:57.640] Now the way this is gonna work
[38:57.640 -> 38:59.600] is we have a simulator in our lounge.
[38:59.600 -> 39:01.920] Thank you very much to Track Racer and Fanatec
[39:01.920 -> 39:02.800] for setting us up,
[39:02.800 -> 39:07.800] because we don't know anything about any of this. It's beautiful. It's so sick. We're gonna, and
[39:07.800 -> 39:13.440] obviously we've only got last year's F1 game, but they've added an F1 23 car to
[39:13.440 -> 39:16.960] it. Is that correct? Yeah, the Alfa Romeo. Yeah, they do. So we're gonna be playing on the F1 game and
[39:16.960 -> 39:20.180] obviously we're aware this is a podcast so we want you guys to have an audio
[39:20.180 -> 39:24.740] experience. So the way this is gonna work is every race weekend me and Fab are
[39:24.740 -> 39:29.480] gonna set one lap. It's gonna be like a time trial whilst the other one one lap
[39:29.480 -> 39:34.340] yeah you got no practice runs no practice lap you just press start lap no we're doing the
[39:34.340 -> 39:36.680] out lap aren't we because you want to come around the corner. We'll do an out lap
[39:36.680 -> 39:41.980] we'll do it yeah and basically if you invalidate it's a second added on no
[39:41.980 -> 39:45.600] matter what but if it's a clear cheat or a corner cut,
[39:45.600 -> 39:47.040] obviously it would just be disqualified.
[39:47.040 -> 39:49.600] Well, we have to decide, we have to,
[39:49.600 -> 39:51.200] now this is going to be the tricky part guys,
[39:51.200 -> 39:52.880] because we can never agree on anything
[39:52.880 -> 39:54.040] when it comes to racing.
[39:54.040 -> 39:57.720] We have to decide whether we've gained time
[39:57.720 -> 40:01.760] or lost time when you get the penalty.
[40:01.760 -> 40:04.000] Well, no, just a second for any invalidate,
[40:04.000 -> 40:05.280] because otherwise me and you are going to be sat
[40:05.280 -> 40:06.680] like Christian Horner and Tyrone Wolfe
[40:06.680 -> 40:08.000] and arguing each other the whole time.
[40:08.000 -> 40:09.560] Any invalidation is a second.
[40:09.560 -> 40:11.000] Yeah, but I know for a fact
[40:11.000 -> 40:12.480] that I'll be trying to add a second on
[40:12.480 -> 40:13.320] and you're going to be like,
[40:13.320 -> 40:16.160] no, I clearly didn't make a second up by cutting up corner
[40:16.160 -> 40:17.360] and I'm going to be like, oh my God,
[40:17.360 -> 40:18.200] then you're going to win.
[40:18.200 -> 40:19.320] No, we have to agree.
[40:19.320 -> 40:21.920] Any invalidated lap, because it's a time,
[40:21.920 -> 40:24.120] it's a qualifying lap, like realistically qualifying.
[40:24.120 -> 40:28.000] Yeah, but then for instance, if like one of us spun and we lost time what you wouldn't add a second on for that
[40:30.280 -> 40:32.280] Time you wouldn't add it on I mean, they'll be it they'll be
[40:33.160 -> 40:37.620] Difference, but then there's gonna be a gray area in the middle one of us can't decide if we've gained time
[40:38.720 -> 40:42.200] Arguments at some point throughout this series absolutely will but yeah
[40:42.200 -> 40:46.400] Basically if you invalidate if youF, like completely just DNF,
[40:46.400 -> 40:47.240] you get one shot at this,
[40:47.240 -> 40:49.400] and it's for one point every race weekend.
[40:49.400 -> 40:50.400] Yep.
[40:50.400 -> 40:51.720] The other person will commentate
[40:51.720 -> 40:52.800] whilst the other person goes.
[40:52.800 -> 40:55.360] So Fabio Broca, do you wanna take the racing seat
[40:55.360 -> 40:56.300] and set the time?
[40:56.300 -> 40:57.500] I'm going first, am I?
[40:57.500 -> 40:59.160] Yeah, go on, let's see what you can do,
[40:59.160 -> 41:00.440] and I'll talk the people through it.
[41:00.440 -> 41:01.440] You can take the mic over with you
[41:01.440 -> 41:03.000] and sit it in front of your steering wheel.
[41:03.000 -> 41:05.280] Okay, are we gonna move the cameras?
[41:05.280 -> 41:06.800] Yeah we're gonna move the cameras.
[41:06.800 -> 41:11.360] For those listening at home, we'll be back with the pit stop fastest lap, Bahrain.
[41:12.320 -> 41:18.560] Here he goes for his lap of Bahrain, coming in off his outlap, picking up some speed,
[41:18.560 -> 41:21.760] he's about to cross the line, the time starts now!
[41:22.640 -> 41:28.000] Flying up into turn one, Mr Fabio Bocca in the 2023 Alfa
[41:28.000 -> 41:36.080] Romeo, how's he going to hit the corner? Fantastic braking! You're actually really good, you've
[41:36.080 -> 41:42.080] actually played this sim loads. We're not using the gears just yet, he's absolutely
[41:42.080 -> 41:45.400] flying, however your fastest lap is significantly quicker.
[41:45.400 -> 41:48.960] So much quicker mate, so much quicker.
[41:48.960 -> 41:51.160] Straight, great turn through turn 4.
[41:51.160 -> 41:55.520] I've got the map up, I've got the map up in front of me.
[41:55.520 -> 41:57.720] No invalidations just yet.
[41:57.720 -> 42:02.320] This is a big old tournament mate, big tournament.
[42:02.320 -> 42:05.360] Comes round the apex, nice straight here before turn 11.
[42:06.440 -> 42:11.040] We've got a DRS detection zone 3 coming up in a couple of corners, Mr Fabio Bocca.
[42:11.960 -> 42:12.960] DRS 3, yeah?
[42:12.960 -> 42:15.960] Yeah, DRS 3. Make sure you get ready for that one.
[42:17.000 -> 42:18.280] Tyres are looking hot.
[42:18.680 -> 42:20.360] He jumps it up into gear 8.
[42:21.280 -> 42:22.280] Round turn 13.
[42:22.280 -> 42:23.280] Oh, round turn 13.
[42:23.280 -> 42:25.600] Oh, it's gonna be an invalidation!
[42:25.600 -> 42:27.720] Oh, you just got away with it!
[42:27.720 -> 42:29.960] How did you not invalidate?
[42:30.900 -> 42:34.600] That might need to go to the adjudicator, my friend.
[42:34.600 -> 42:36.720] Oh, where are you going?
[42:36.720 -> 42:40.160] Where are you going with this lap, mate?
[42:40.160 -> 42:41.360] This is a bad lap.
[42:41.360 -> 42:44.240] You are all over the place.
[42:44.240 -> 42:46.800] Perfect for Jake in the Alfa Romeo to step in.
[42:47.520 -> 42:51.200] Round the final corner, Fab's lap of Bahrain
[42:51.200 -> 42:53.960] is a confirmed time of a one minute
[42:54.400 -> 42:57.520] thirty three point one eight three.
[42:58.760 -> 42:59.840] Time for my go.
[43:01.240 -> 43:06.480] He weathered the storm of the race on the fastest lap leaderboard.
[43:06.480 -> 43:11.760] Can he make it above Fabio Bocca in this next race at the Bahrainian Grand Prix?
[43:11.760 -> 43:12.760] Find out today.
[43:12.760 -> 43:13.760] I'm making me nervous already.
[43:13.760 -> 43:14.760] I'm making me nervous.
[43:14.760 -> 43:20.200] As he turns down into turn one, slow, heavy on the brakes as he sluggishly moves back
[43:20.200 -> 43:21.200] up around the chicane.
[43:21.200 -> 43:22.200] Sluggishly?
[43:22.200 -> 43:23.200] It's the 1.33.
[43:23.200 -> 43:24.200] Yeah, I think you actually beat me already.
[43:24.200 -> 43:25.640] I can take it slow and I'll be all right. Yeah, I think you're actually beating me already.
[43:25.640 -> 43:27.640] I can take it slow and I'll be alright.
[43:27.640 -> 43:28.640] Oh, overcooked!
[43:28.640 -> 43:29.640] Overcooked!
[43:29.640 -> 43:30.640] See, you're getting a little too confident.
[43:30.640 -> 43:33.480] Overcooked it down into turn four.
[43:33.480 -> 43:35.840] Oh no.
[43:35.840 -> 43:38.480] Here comes the snake.
[43:38.480 -> 43:45.200] Heavy braking now down into the snake.
[43:46.040 -> 43:50.280] Nice and tight. A little bit too tight, some would say.
[43:50.280 -> 43:51.360] That was tight.
[43:53.200 -> 43:54.840] Oh, late breaking down here.
[43:54.840 -> 43:57.560] That was actually, that was yeah, better than mine.
[43:57.560 -> 43:58.400] Actually better than mine.
[43:58.400 -> 44:01.920] Of course, I could have messed up here.
[44:01.920 -> 44:03.200] Big time.
[44:03.200 -> 44:04.040] Big time.
[44:04.040 -> 44:04.860] I think you got me.
[44:05.500 -> 44:07.500] I would love the first win of this. No, I could have messed up here, big time. Why? Big time, I think you got me. I would love the first win if this is...
[44:07.500 -> 44:09.000] No! I'm too wide!
[44:10.500 -> 44:12.500] 133 is quite slow, mate.
[44:12.500 -> 44:14.500] It is, it is really slow.
[44:14.500 -> 44:16.500] No! No!
[44:16.500 -> 44:18.500] Oh, dear.
[44:18.500 -> 44:20.500] No!
[44:20.500 -> 44:22.500] I think I'm gonna get him out of there.
[44:23.500 -> 44:25.360] Right, head in the game, mate, head in the game.
[44:25.360 -> 44:27.800] I actually want you to win this.
[44:29.040 -> 44:30.800] Yeah, it is, it is, final corner.
[44:33.240 -> 44:35.520] Oh no, oh no.
[44:35.520 -> 44:36.360] Come on!
[44:42.360 -> 44:43.200] Ah.
[44:43.200 -> 44:49.440] Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da. Did you actually beat me and you were shit?
[44:49.440 -> 44:50.440] Yeah.
[44:50.440 -> 44:53.440] Back to the part.
[44:53.440 -> 45:01.440] Well there we have it, Bahrain race weekend, point one to Fab's.
[45:01.440 -> 45:04.480] What we've established there is that I don't even really have to try, do I?
[45:04.480 -> 45:07.880] You've had a lot more practice than me. That just shows that I'm clearly really
[45:07.880 -> 45:12.040] slow. I haven't been on that sim once. Don't start an argument with me, just give
[45:12.040 -> 45:15.800] me the Bahrain quiz. That's right you guys love a Bahrain quiz. So we're just
[45:15.800 -> 45:19.440] gonna brush over the fact that I just won the first races season. Yeah 1-0 to
[45:19.440 -> 45:24.560] you, 23 races to go. Which made me realize there's actually a really big gap after the
[45:24.560 -> 45:25.620] Australian Grand Prix because there's no China. So there's actually a really big gap after the Australian Grand Prix,
[45:25.620 -> 45:27.420] because there's no China.
[45:27.420 -> 45:29.020] So there's actually a really big gap in the future.
[45:29.020 -> 45:31.380] We'll have to fill the void.
[45:31.380 -> 45:33.260] We will be filling the void.
[45:33.260 -> 45:36.460] To end this pod, we are gonna be diving into some,
[45:36.460 -> 45:37.900] we've got five questions for you.
[45:37.900 -> 45:38.940] Five questions, brilliant.
[45:38.940 -> 45:42.180] Also for the people at home, play along if you would like to.
[45:43.420 -> 45:44.260] Here we go.
[45:44.260 -> 45:46.080] Okay. Fab's Bahrain quiz for Jake. Thank you so much here we go okay fabs barrain quiz for jake
[45:46.080 -> 45:50.080] thank you so much for bringing me a fabs barrain quiz for jake right to be honest i quizzed you
[45:50.080 -> 45:55.200] on barring last year right no i quizzed you on barring last year don't tell me you've got the
[45:55.200 -> 45:59.440] you could have actually genuinely got the exact same questions you asked me last year
[45:59.440 -> 46:02.640] and i still would have gotten wrong i didn't purposely go for the exact same questions but
[46:02.640 -> 46:07.680] i've i've some of them are the same i I know nothing about it really, that much anyway.
[46:07.680 -> 46:09.480] Okay, well, kicking it off,
[46:09.480 -> 46:12.000] who won Bahrain the most amount of times?
[46:13.040 -> 46:14.280] Who has won Bahrain?
[46:14.280 -> 46:15.320] Hey, don't do that to me.
[46:15.320 -> 46:17.280] I know it's multiple choice.
[46:17.280 -> 46:18.120] Well, yeah.
[46:18.120 -> 46:18.960] Well, come on then.
[46:18.960 -> 46:19.960] Yeah, I just wanted to see if you had,
[46:19.960 -> 46:20.800] if you're feeling confident.
[46:20.800 -> 46:21.620] No, I'm not.
[46:21.620 -> 46:23.440] This year with quizzes, I'm not jumping the gun.
[46:23.440 -> 46:24.760] Cause like now I've got a bit of knowledge,
[46:24.760 -> 46:26.760] I feel like I can sit back, relax and answer a question.
[46:26.760 -> 46:27.600] Good man.
[46:27.600 -> 46:28.420] Good man.
[46:28.420 -> 46:29.260] You know, a bit more grown up, you know,
[46:29.260 -> 46:30.080] I've decided.
[46:30.080 -> 46:30.960] I'm 27 now.
[46:30.960 -> 46:31.800] I've had my birthday.
[46:31.800 -> 46:32.620] I've got to grow up.
[46:32.620 -> 46:33.720] Yeah, agreed, agreed.
[46:33.720 -> 46:36.200] So I'm going to grow up a little bit soon.
[46:37.060 -> 46:38.560] Right, multiple choice.
[46:39.920 -> 46:44.580] Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel, or Michael Schumacher?
[46:45.000 -> 46:47.580] How long has Bahrain been on the calendar? Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel or Michael Schumacher?
[46:49.940 -> 46:52.100] How long has Bahrain been on the calendar? Like realistically, I don't think it's one
[46:52.100 -> 46:55.200] of the oldest tracks, so I don't reckon it's Schumacher.
[46:57.400 -> 46:59.520] Lewis Hamilton, who was the other one?
[47:00.420 -> 47:01.260] Seb Vettel.
[47:02.400 -> 47:07.800] Seb Vettel was winning in like what, 2012, 2013, 2014, that kind of time.
[47:09.240 -> 47:11.340] Barring then, I'm not sure,
[47:11.340 -> 47:13.280] Lewis Hamilton probably won it like five,
[47:13.280 -> 47:15.120] six years in a row.
[47:15.120 -> 47:17.080] Yeah, probably Hamilton.
[47:17.080 -> 47:18.440] You're locking in Hamilton?
[47:18.440 -> 47:19.280] Yep, correct.
[47:19.280 -> 47:20.840] Let's go, one out one.
[47:20.840 -> 47:25.000] I'm gonna grow up this year.
[47:25.280 -> 47:28.560] That's what our neighbors do upstairs, I swear.
[47:28.560 -> 47:30.280] The weird bird lady does some crazy shit.
[47:30.280 -> 47:31.120] I'll tell you that.
[47:31.120 -> 47:31.940] Weird shit.
[47:31.940 -> 47:33.760] Sorry, weird bird lady, if you listen to the pod.
[47:33.760 -> 47:37.720] Question two, when was the Bahrain circuit first raced?
[47:37.720 -> 47:38.720] Okay.
[47:38.720 -> 47:41.800] 2001, 2004, 2010.
[47:46.780 -> 47:47.780] Thing is,
[47:52.000 -> 47:52.920] that's tough.
[47:52.920 -> 47:55.200] Yeah, I wouldn't really even expect you to know it.
[47:55.200 -> 47:56.560] Because what I'm trying to do in my head
[47:56.560 -> 47:58.780] is picture what years drivers were racing
[47:58.780 -> 48:00.000] and then just try and think of whether
[48:00.000 -> 48:01.600] I can imagine them winning there.
[48:02.660 -> 48:06.660] But to be honest, that is a little bit out of my depth.
[48:06.660 -> 48:09.380] I feel like maybe 2011, I've learned a bit about like,
[48:09.380 -> 48:10.340] you know, Vettel winning,
[48:10.340 -> 48:13.060] cause I've got so much shit about how many world titles
[48:13.060 -> 48:13.900] he's won.
[48:13.900 -> 48:15.580] This was a bit of a nasty one for me.
[48:15.580 -> 48:17.940] I'm going to take a guess of 2010.
[48:17.940 -> 48:19.260] It's incorrect my friend.
[48:19.260 -> 48:20.860] I'm happy to take a loss there.
[48:20.860 -> 48:21.740] Yeah, yeah.
[48:21.740 -> 48:22.580] What was it as first?
[48:22.580 -> 48:23.400] 2004.
[48:23.400 -> 48:24.240] 2004.
[48:24.240 -> 48:25.000] Yeah. For those of you at home, I hope you did better than me. It's a. What was it? It was 2004. 2004. Yeah.
[48:25.000 -> 48:26.600] For those of you at home, I hope you did better than me.
[48:26.600 -> 48:29.040] It's a sad time over here on the loser's sofa.
[48:29.040 -> 48:32.780] Who holds the fastest lap record at Bahrain?
[48:34.120 -> 48:39.120] Now we spoke about this a couple of days ago during testing
[48:39.120 -> 48:40.800] because Crofty said it.
[48:40.800 -> 48:42.400] I can't remember.
[48:42.400 -> 48:44.160] You can't, not at all.
[48:44.160 -> 48:48.000] Multiple choice? Yeah. Okay. Valtteri Bottas, Felipe
[48:48.000 -> 48:55.360] Massa, Pedro de la Rosa. Something tells me it's Valtteri Bottas. I'm almost certain it's
[48:55.360 -> 49:04.240] Valtteri Bottas. I don't know why. Valtteri Bottas, final answer. Wrong. It's the other
[49:04.240 -> 49:09.720] one isn't it? It's Pedro de la Rosa. I knew it 2005 you got one minute 31 point four four seven
[49:09.720 -> 49:15.720] There's a track though that Valtteri has got a faster snap on and I know it remember from last year
[49:15.720 -> 49:19.440] I won't lie to you. I thought it was this one as well. I thought it was Bahrain
[49:20.200 -> 49:23.240] There's no way we can be expected to remember shit like that
[49:23.840 -> 49:27.160] That's like someone saying to me in football, when was this goal?
[49:27.160 -> 49:28.760] I wouldn't have a clue.
[49:28.760 -> 49:31.680] You know, but anyway, I'm not trying to make an excuse.
[49:31.680 -> 49:33.480] It kind of sounds like you are, a little bit.
[49:33.480 -> 49:36.840] Well, I wonder how many people got three out of three.
[49:36.840 -> 49:40.840] How many laps at the Bahrain Grand Prix?
[49:40.840 -> 49:44.280] 57, 65 or 71?
[49:44.280 -> 49:45.840] Well I'm going to judge by the fact that I just did a
[49:45.840 -> 49:52.120] smacking lap of a 1.33 so that's quite a long lap because you've got to think
[49:52.120 -> 49:56.520] like Austria you're looking at our leaderboard we're doing like 105s so for
[49:56.520 -> 50:02.880] Austria I feel like that would have more. Bahrain, Red Bull did around 160 laps
[50:02.880 -> 50:06.400] and one of the commentators said that's nearly three races.
[50:06.400 -> 50:11.200] How many was it again? What are the multiple choice? I'm fishing you out here my friend.
[50:11.200 -> 50:14.800] 57, 65 or 71.
[50:14.800 -> 50:18.800] What you've done there is you've put them really close together.
[50:18.800 -> 50:21.000] So like it kind of could be any of them.
[50:21.000 -> 50:22.000] Yeah but that's also...
[50:22.000 -> 50:23.000] What's the lowest one?
[50:23.000 -> 50:24.400] Roughly 57.
[50:24.400 -> 50:26.360] 57 laps at the Bahrain Grand Prix, my friend.
[50:26.360 -> 50:27.200] Really?
[50:27.200 -> 50:28.640] Yep, lock it in and load it.
[50:28.640 -> 50:29.480] Really?
[50:29.480 -> 50:30.800] Yeah, lock it and load it!
[50:30.800 -> 50:34.480] So let me just, let me just, 57, 65, or 71.
[50:34.480 -> 50:37.400] Oh, hang on, might be a little technical failure over here.
[50:37.400 -> 50:41.440] 65, 65!
[50:41.440 -> 50:43.600] Final answer, 57.
[50:43.600 -> 50:44.480] Yeah?
[50:44.480 -> 50:45.320] Final answer. Are you Yeah? Final answer.
[50:45.320 -> 50:46.160] Are you sure?
[50:46.160 -> 50:47.960] 57 laps of the Bahrain Grand Prix.
[50:47.960 -> 50:48.800] Okay.
[50:49.880 -> 50:50.720] Correct.
[50:50.720 -> 50:51.560] Correct.
[50:51.560 -> 50:52.380] Thank you.
[50:52.380 -> 50:53.220] You tried to push me out of it.
[50:53.220 -> 50:54.060] I did, but you weren't having it.
[50:54.060 -> 50:54.880] No, I wasn't.
[50:54.880 -> 50:55.880] So what is that, two out of four?
[50:55.880 -> 50:56.720] Two out of four.
[50:56.720 -> 50:57.760] Final question.
[50:57.760 -> 51:00.120] Let's see if anyone can get a perfect five out of five.
[51:00.120 -> 51:01.040] Wow, what an episode.
[51:01.040 -> 51:02.720] This has been like a nearly an hour long.
[51:02.720 -> 51:03.880] Bloody hell.
[51:03.880 -> 51:04.700] Can you believe it?
[51:04.700 -> 51:07.600] The race season really is back. We actually have something to talk about and look what happens.
[51:07.600 -> 51:09.600] I know, I know. Get me out of here.
[51:09.600 -> 51:16.960] How many gear changes in one lap around the Bahrain circuit?
[51:16.960 -> 51:19.560] Now you do still have three lifelines.
[51:19.560 -> 51:20.200] No.
[51:20.200 -> 51:28.320] You have phone a friend, you have ask the audience, no one here, or you have take away one random wrong answer.
[51:28.320 -> 51:31.520] I would love to phone a friend.
[51:31.520 -> 51:33.120] You want to phone a friend?
[51:33.120 -> 51:33.620] Yes.
[51:33.620 -> 51:35.120] Who would you like to call today Jake?
[51:35.120 -> 51:35.920] Ruth Baskham.
[51:35.920 -> 51:37.920] You want to ring Ruth Baskham?
[51:37.920 -> 51:43.360] I want to ring Ruth Baskham. I don't even have Ruth Baskham's number so you've got to ring her.
[51:43.360 -> 51:45.400] I want to ring Ruth Baskin's number so you gotta ring her. I wanna ring Ruth Baskin.
[51:45.400 -> 51:46.000] Can we do this?
[51:46.000 -> 51:51.000] If I wanna know how many gear changes there are around the track, I'm ringing a strategy.
[51:51.000 -> 51:54.000] She's in Bahrain right now, so what time is it in Bahrain?
[51:54.000 -> 51:54.800] I don't know.
[51:54.800 -> 51:56.600] It could be the middle of the night, should we just ring her anyway?
[51:56.600 -> 51:59.800] Yeah, ring her anyway, this is important, this is a live recording.
[51:59.800 -> 52:03.200] No, wait, wait. In Bahrain I think it's like 2am.
[52:04.400 -> 52:05.280] Hang on. Did you just start ringing?
[52:05.280 -> 52:06.280] I was about to.
[52:06.280 -> 52:07.280] You've never rang Ruth Buscombe before.
[52:07.280 -> 52:08.280] Never in my life.
[52:08.280 -> 52:09.280] Hi Ruth.
[52:09.280 -> 52:10.280] Time in Bahrain.
[52:10.280 -> 52:11.280] It's only half 11.
[52:11.280 -> 52:12.280] Ruth, Ruth you're getting a call.
[52:12.280 -> 52:13.280] That's fine.
[52:13.280 -> 52:14.280] I don't know which phone to ring.
[52:14.280 -> 52:15.280] One of them's her...
[52:15.280 -> 52:16.280] Tomorrow's only media day anyway.
[52:16.280 -> 52:17.280] One of them's her work phone so...
[52:17.280 -> 52:18.280] Just gonna call Ruth Buscombe now.
[52:18.280 -> 52:19.280] She doesn't seem to be...
[52:19.280 -> 52:20.280] Oh, it's ringing.
[52:20.280 -> 52:21.280] Phone a friend, this is exciting.
[52:21.280 -> 52:22.280] I'm gonna call her.
[52:22.280 -> 52:23.280] I'm gonna call her.
[52:23.280 -> 52:24.280] I'm gonna call her.
[52:24.280 -> 52:25.240] I'm gonna call her. I'm gonna call her. I'm gonna call her. I'm them's her work phone, so... Okay.
[52:25.240 -> 52:28.080] Just call Ruth Buscombe now, she doesn't seem to be...
[52:28.080 -> 52:28.960] Oh, it's ringing.
[52:28.960 -> 52:30.400] Phone a friend, this is exciting.
[52:30.400 -> 52:32.080] She could be drunk.
[52:34.480 -> 52:35.640] She's probably thinking,
[52:35.640 -> 52:37.520] why is Fab from Pit Stop calling?
[52:37.520 -> 52:38.760] Maybe this isn't a great idea.
[52:38.760 -> 52:40.000] At 11.30, I don't...
[52:40.000 -> 52:41.120] It was a good idea in my head,
[52:41.120 -> 52:43.640] but realistically, is she gonna answer it at 11.30?
[52:43.640 -> 52:44.480] Probably not.
[52:44.480 -> 52:46.080] Tomorrow's Thursday, right? Dude, tomorrow's practice. I mean, we she gonna answer it? I don't think she's probably not. Tomorrow's Thursday, right?
[52:46.080 -> 52:47.280] Dude, tomorrow's practice.
[52:47.280 -> 52:48.320] I mean, we've tried, okay?
[52:48.320 -> 52:49.720] I won't use that lifeline.
[52:49.720 -> 52:51.880] Aren't they practicing tomorrow?
[52:51.880 -> 52:53.680] Tomorrow's media day.
[52:53.680 -> 52:54.520] Tomorrow's Thursday.
[52:54.520 -> 52:56.300] Tomorrow's media day.
[52:56.300 -> 52:57.600] Okay, there's no practice on Thursday.
[52:57.600 -> 52:59.200] No, is there?
[52:59.200 -> 53:00.120] I don't know.
[53:00.120 -> 53:02.480] But now I've just called Ruth Boscombe at 11.30 at night
[53:02.480 -> 53:03.320] on a Wednesday.
[53:03.320 -> 53:05.500] You should listen to it vlog and see why then.
[53:05.500 -> 53:08.200] What was the question? I forgot the bloody question anyways.
[53:08.200 -> 53:10.700] How many gear changes? I'll just answer it.
[53:10.700 -> 53:11.700] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[53:11.700 -> 53:14.000] Well, I mean you can still phone another friend if you want.
[53:14.000 -> 53:15.000] I ain't got any more.
[53:15.000 -> 53:17.000] What? You ain't got any?
[53:17.000 -> 53:18.500] What, give me the free, give me the free.
[53:18.500 -> 53:19.500] What about Jake Smith?
[53:19.500 -> 53:21.000] He's not gonna have a fucking clue.
[53:21.000 -> 53:22.500] He did last time, he got it right.
[53:22.500 -> 53:27.560] I don't want to bother Jake at 11.30 on a school night. It's only 8.30, he doesn't live in Bahrain.
[53:27.560 -> 53:31.400] Oh yeah, he doesn't live in Bahrain does he? No honestly, just tell me them.
[53:31.400 -> 53:53.000] Okay, 45, 60 or 71 16 corners you'd roughly go up from
[53:53.000 -> 54:11.500] like 3 to 8 back down I'm gonna go with it's
[54:11.500 -> 54:14.720] actually pretty good logic what you just done there I'm gonna go with the highest
[54:14.720 -> 54:21.320] one 71 yeah I'm going with the highest one 71 I because it's quite a long lap I
[54:21.320 -> 54:26.640] don't know I could have really done with Roof, to be honest. If anything, I feel
[54:26.640 -> 54:27.640] let down.
[54:27.640 -> 54:31.560] Can you remember what it was for Monaco? Monaco was, I think, was like 56.
[54:31.560 -> 54:32.680] I haven't got a clue what it was.
[54:32.680 -> 54:37.800] I think Monaco was 56, just to let you know. If that sways your decision in any way possible.
[54:37.800 -> 54:44.880] Mate, I'm not playing any of your games. 71. Final answer.
[54:44.880 -> 54:50.080] Jake Boyes. Fabio Bocca you have got a perfect
[54:50.080 -> 54:58.240] the answer correct let's go three out of five correct three out of five it's

[55:54.080 -> 55:55.640] Verstappen is gonna win.
[55:57.000 -> 55:57.840] No, Alonso's winning the race.
[55:57.840 -> 55:58.760] Russell's second.
[55:58.760 -> 56:00.340] Alonso's winning the race.
[56:00.340 -> 56:03.240] And Carlos Sainz third.
[56:03.240 -> 56:04.400] Is that what you said?
[56:04.400 -> 56:06.400] But I'd rather Alonso wins the race.
[56:06.400 -> 56:08.400] Team Alonso, let's go!
[56:08.400 -> 56:10.400] Good man, good man.
