[01:34.960 -> 01:36.340] We never really know who's doing the intro.
[01:36.340 -> 01:39.480] One of us just shouts something into the mic, but today we did it together.

[01:41.480 -> 01:44.480] We're like a well-oiled machine by now.
[01:44.480 -> 01:45.240] Fourth in the charts, baby! Fourth in the charts! Woo! Synchronized fully so like we're a well-oiled machine by now
[01:47.240 -> 01:49.280] For the chance baby
[01:54.600 -> 01:55.400] Weeks, how are we doing this? No, I do the unbelievable and drive to survive is
[01:58.600 -> 02:03.000] Here and as you guys know, we are big drive to survive fans So we will be talking about it throughout this episode. We will try not to give too many spoilers
[02:03.640 -> 02:05.080] But fab Fab we've
[02:05.080 -> 02:08.720] just watched our first episodes of Drive to Survive the new season we've been
[02:08.720 -> 02:12.520] away this weekend what were your thoughts after watching it? The main
[02:12.520 -> 02:16.200] thing I realized straight away is because as everyone probably knows by
[02:16.200 -> 02:20.960] now we joined halfway through last season yeah so watching the first three
[02:20.960 -> 02:27.960] episodes was actually really exciting I mean I suppose it is for everyone but for us it was like wow because we kind of didn't know a lot of
[02:27.960 -> 02:32.320] the stuff that happened. Yeah and it also brought a lot of things into perspective
[02:32.320 -> 02:37.440] like we realized a lot of things a lot more stuff made sense. We're only two
[02:37.440 -> 02:41.680] three episodes in so we don't know loads but we've never watched a season before
[02:41.680 -> 02:45.420] where we've watched the races first because we've only just got into it.
[02:45.420 -> 02:46.260] Do you know what I mean?
[02:46.260 -> 02:47.460] Like now we're watching like a roundup
[02:47.460 -> 02:49.300] of something we actually understand
[02:49.300 -> 02:50.540] but before we didn't even know
[02:50.540 -> 02:51.860] what was going on kind of thing.
[02:51.860 -> 02:53.980] Yeah, it would be cool like once we get
[02:53.980 -> 02:56.340] through the drive to survive season
[02:56.340 -> 02:57.540] then we'll start picking up again
[02:57.540 -> 02:58.860] where we left off when we started
[02:58.860 -> 02:59.900] because it was the American race
[02:59.900 -> 03:01.460] that we started watching, right?
[03:01.460 -> 03:02.540] So to see that would be cool.
[03:02.540 -> 03:04.420] But the main thing that I noticed
[03:04.420 -> 03:05.200] was the kind of like a, don't know if it's a rivalry we started watching right? So to see that would be cool. But the main thing that I noticed was um,
[03:08.240 -> 03:13.800] was the kind of like a, don't know if it's a rivalry, but like the friction between Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris at the start of last season.
[03:13.800 -> 03:20.760] I never expected that and I never really thought that Ricciardo was even that unhappy to be honest.
[03:20.760 -> 03:26.560] I never realized that that was him doing bad. It's the first time we've watched it, I kind of expected that's just where Ricardo finishes.
[03:26.560 -> 03:30.240] So you genuinely don't know, we have such a different perspective watching it.
[03:30.240 -> 03:36.800] But yeah, there's some rivalries, all sorts of things going on, and obviously we're aware
[03:36.800 -> 03:39.760] some people don't like Drive to Survive, some people don't like the way it's edited.
[03:39.760 -> 03:41.920] But I feel like we should talk about that in this episode.
[03:41.920 -> 03:49.320] We should talk about Drive to Survive in a whole because it has become a bit of an entertainment show,
[03:49.360 -> 03:51.720] but it is still completely about the race.
[03:51.720 -> 03:53.680] Oh, complete, complete entertainment.
[03:53.680 -> 03:56.000] But I mean, all it's doing is showing you
[03:56.000 -> 03:58.520] the entertainment that's going on around sport.
[03:58.520 -> 04:00.160] It's not just about the race anymore.
[04:00.160 -> 04:02.320] It's about everything, either side of the race.
[04:02.320 -> 04:04.360] Yeah, and there seems to be this like conspiracy
[04:04.360 -> 04:06.280] that stuff's made up for Drive to Survive.
[04:06.280 -> 04:08.320] But what you got to think about is if they had this back
[04:08.320 -> 04:12.880] in like 1994 or something, or 1995,
[04:12.880 -> 04:14.400] it was like when Schumacher won
[04:14.400 -> 04:15.960] like his first world championship.
[04:15.960 -> 04:18.200] Like imagine they had it for like Schumacher's year.
[04:18.200 -> 04:20.760] You've been Googling dates before coming on here.
[04:20.760 -> 04:22.960] I ain't stupid.
[04:22.960 -> 04:26.840] You always come to a fresh episode of the podcast with some like
[04:26.840 -> 04:29.800] unheard of dates that you know that I know nothing about.
[04:29.800 -> 04:33.600] First world championship 1994, last world championship 2004.
[04:33.600 -> 04:37.400] Wow. I did google it. I didn't want to look fucking
[04:37.400 -> 04:38.400] stupid this week. Hey, hey.
[04:38.400 -> 04:41.960] I wanted a fact. Google is a very amazing thing.
[04:41.960 -> 04:46.000] Yeah I wanted to give them a fact this week, and they got it. Imagine they had Drive to Survive then.
[04:46.000 -> 04:48.000] It would be exactly the same.
[04:48.000 -> 04:50.000] It would still be
[04:50.000 -> 04:52.000] all of the same stuff happening, you've just never seen it before.
[04:52.000 -> 04:54.000] And I feel like that's the adjustment period
[04:54.000 -> 04:56.000] for loads of different fans, is
[04:56.000 -> 04:58.000] seeing a side that they have
[04:58.000 -> 05:00.000] never seen, but it is
[05:00.000 -> 05:02.000] just been taken over
[05:02.000 -> 05:04.000] because now social and online content
[05:04.000 -> 05:05.320] has got so big that it's become
[05:05.320 -> 05:09.560] this phenomenon. So you're seeing more than you normally would. But it's interesting talking
[05:09.560 -> 05:14.800] about the rivalries because you seem to think that Leclerc and Sainz look like they're like
[05:14.800 -> 05:19.600] blood brothers. Do you like that? Blood brothers for Ari.
[05:19.600 -> 05:23.520] They're actually related, distant relations. Half brothers.
[05:23.520 -> 05:26.560] Do you think they're going gonna absolutely smash it this season?
[05:26.560 -> 05:28.200] Every time you look at them, you just think,
[05:28.200 -> 05:29.200] wow, they're gonna kill it.
[05:29.200 -> 05:30.400] Absolutely.
[05:30.400 -> 05:32.660] This ties in with our constructor predictions,
[05:32.660 -> 05:35.260] which we'll be doing again at the end of the potty.
[05:36.400 -> 05:38.000] No, I do think Ferrari,
[05:38.000 -> 05:40.560] look, I've said it a million times now,
[05:40.560 -> 05:42.800] Ferrari are gonna dominate in 2022.
[05:42.800 -> 05:45.460] And after watching that episode of Drive to
[05:45.460 -> 05:49.580] Survive where it follows Carlos and Leclerc, I think it was episode 2 or
[05:49.580 -> 05:53.820] something, they're like the same age roughly, you know, they're into the same
[05:53.820 -> 05:57.780] kinds of stuff, they got a lot that they can relate with each other so I feel
[05:57.780 -> 06:03.700] like, you know, Ferrari, they're Italian, Italians are all about family, I think
[06:03.700 -> 06:05.640] these two drivers, if they've built
[06:05.640 -> 06:10.920] their relationship last year and now they're a lot closer, I think it's going to do wonders
[06:10.920 -> 06:15.520] for the team. I think it will bring the team together. They'll work together more coherently.
[06:15.520 -> 06:17.600] I just think it's going to be a better vibe.
[06:17.600 -> 06:22.360] It's crazy because you see it the same as me. My predictions have changed where I think
[06:22.360 -> 06:27.940] everything's going to happen. Ferrari are moving up for me. I they're gonna be amazing this year 100. Glad you agree, but
[06:29.160 -> 06:35.160] There's a bit of me that can't quite grasp Leclerc and Sainz as mates
[06:35.160 -> 06:41.920] And I say that because they've spent the season together where they've competed for pretty much the same places on the grid
[06:41.920 -> 06:47.700] Just making sure they beat McLaren. They kind of accepted pretty early last season, that's what they were doing, their first year together.
[06:47.980 -> 06:54.900] I look at that and I think, if Ferrari are as good as you say they're gonna be, and they're both competing for that victory every week,
[06:55.000 -> 07:01.780] you might see two completely different teammates, because they're not gonna be battling to get fifth or sixth or fourth.
[07:01.940 -> 07:08.320] If they were battling for first and second every week, you could get two people that look like they love each other because they're comfortable
[07:08.320 -> 07:12.640] instantly hating each other. If something goes wrong, one clash, you know, they get,
[07:12.640 -> 07:16.480] they've been put together by the team. Then they're not actually best mates out of the race.
[07:16.480 -> 07:19.840] That's why this year is going to, this year could be, do you know what I mean? It could
[07:19.840 -> 07:23.920] line up to be another amazing year because of stuff like that, because of stuff that you've
[07:23.920 -> 07:26.840] just said. It does make it very difficult when you watch things
[07:26.840 -> 07:28.920] like Drive to Survive and you see them on race day,
[07:28.920 -> 07:32.000] it's hard to sometimes tell, you know, who loves who.
[07:32.000 -> 07:33.600] It seems that all the drivers are mates,
[07:33.600 -> 07:34.840] but like at the end of the day,
[07:34.840 -> 07:36.760] they all want to be world champion
[07:36.760 -> 07:38.880] and there can only be one of them.
[07:38.880 -> 07:40.500] They don't pick who their teammate is,
[07:40.500 -> 07:43.480] they get put with a random person half the time, so.
[07:43.480 -> 07:49.960] Yeah, and going back to Ricardo and Lando, seeing that friction between them, because
[07:49.960 -> 07:55.760] from what I understand, they got Ricardo on because he was an amazing driver with Renault,
[07:55.760 -> 07:59.760] and they brought him in as their star driver, and they thought he was going to smash it
[07:59.760 -> 08:02.320] straight out of the gate, and Lando was beating him.
[08:02.320 -> 08:08.820] Yeah, and that's what actually brought me to the point of what I just said about Leclerc because when he said it showed the rivalry
[08:08.820 -> 08:12.920] between two people at the same team, Lando literally turns around on the thing and says
[08:12.920 -> 08:17.440] no driver on the grid would have sympathy for another driver. No. Even if that's your
[08:17.440 -> 08:22.320] teammate though. It's true, it's true. Because they're out there to win. I was gonna say
[08:22.320 -> 08:26.360] do you think it's the same with football? But no, definitely, probably not,
[08:26.360 -> 08:29.480] because they are working as a team together, 11 men.
[08:29.480 -> 08:31.920] Yeah, I think I just want to quickly add
[08:31.920 -> 08:34.040] before I completely get off topic,
[08:34.040 -> 08:35.800] in that Drive to Vive clip,
[08:35.800 -> 08:39.640] it's very over-dramatized when Lando says,
[08:39.640 -> 08:41.640] when they're joking and it's that serious meeting,
[08:41.640 -> 08:43.360] the music makes it so serious.
[08:43.360 -> 08:48.760] I do feel like Netflix makes everything seem a lot more serious than it is. At the end of the day it's just two mates.
[08:48.760 -> 08:51.960] They're probably just two guys that work together having a laugh, beefing
[08:51.960 -> 08:54.920] each other but with the music and everything, the entertainment, we'll get
[08:54.920 -> 08:58.320] into that. But yeah I do think it is a bit like football but like you say in
[08:58.320 -> 09:02.000] football you've got a team of you know 11 players and the whole squad 25 of you.
[09:02.000 -> 09:05.280] I mean these guys do still work together as a team.
[09:05.280 -> 09:08.960] Like we saw, again, the same drivers,
[09:08.960 -> 09:10.480] because Lando was winning all these races.
[09:10.480 -> 09:12.880] He was stuck behind Ricciardo at one point.
[09:12.880 -> 09:15.280] I think it was Imola, probably wrong.
[09:15.280 -> 09:18.400] And they were radioing into Ricciardo saying,
[09:18.400 -> 09:19.480] like, let Lando through.
[09:19.480 -> 09:20.760] And do you know what I mean?
[09:20.760 -> 09:21.600] Because he's quicker.
[09:21.600 -> 09:23.700] Stop holding him up, basically, let him go through.
[09:23.700 -> 09:28.000] That shit's cool. I think you can go either way with it.
[09:28.000 -> 09:29.600] Yeah, I just think...
[09:29.600 -> 09:31.840] Same with Hamilton and Bottas.
[09:31.840 -> 09:39.680] I just think it's never going to be easy to judge the mindset of how friendly these teammates are.
[09:39.680 -> 09:42.560] The best way to put it out there is everyone's trying to win.
[09:42.560 -> 09:46.320] Obviously there's a strategy and sometimes you have to let people through and work together that
[09:46.320 -> 09:49.280] that's always gonna happen because it's great for the team and the constructors
[09:49.280 -> 09:53.400] but when it comes down to one-on-one I truly believe that if the Ferrari is
[09:53.400 -> 09:58.360] popping this year that Leclerc signs could go from teammates to just a battle
[09:58.360 -> 10:02.640] which could be really interesting I think from what Will said that would be
[10:02.640 -> 10:06.300] a bit like Lewis and Nico Rosberg but I never actually watched it so I'm just quoting what Will said that would be a bit like Lewis and Nico Rosberg, but I never actually watched it
[10:06.300 -> 10:08.300] So I'm just quoting what Will said
[10:09.480 -> 10:12.060] Cheers Will. Some of what you said went in
[10:13.140 -> 10:17.200] Some of what he said like went in. Yeah, some of it doesn't stick around for very long
[10:17.200 -> 10:19.200] It's just kind of rattling around in the back of my brain
[10:19.200 -> 10:23.200] It's literally so much, in an hour I'm like what bits did I take in?
[10:23.200 -> 10:31.000] I know, but it's amazing actually, I haven't done that podcast with him and then now seeing him on the TV.
[10:31.000 -> 10:35.000] He's so good. I feel like they featured him more in this series than the last one.
[10:35.000 -> 10:39.000] He's just good at, I mean I suppose he's good at his job, talking.
[10:39.000 -> 10:42.000] He's also been all over the practice this weekend in Bahrain.
[10:42.000 -> 10:47.820] We've been in the studio, Fab's been making music, so's why we haven't been watching anything but I've been watching practice as
[10:47.820 -> 10:52.680] much as I can. Fab doesn't really know much about the practice so we're gonna summarise
[10:52.680 -> 10:57.120] it, talk about it a little bit. Hit me. But he doesn't know about the fastest laps, like
[10:57.120 -> 11:03.160] who did the fastest times throughout the whole weekend. Oh Gasly! Gasly did a fast lap. He,
[11:03.160 -> 11:06.800] not anymore. He was, he was at one point, obviously they can do it. Gasly did a fast lap, not anymore. He was at one point, obviously they can do it.
[11:06.800 -> 11:08.800] Gasly did quite a lot of laps this weekend,
[11:08.800 -> 11:10.000] but he did boss it.
[11:10.000 -> 11:13.580] But like the times that come out of practice this week
[11:13.580 -> 11:15.300] were crazy, obviously the car going out
[11:15.300 -> 11:17.160] isn't gonna be the car on the first day.
[11:17.160 -> 11:19.960] This doesn't mean they're gonna be not at the top
[11:19.960 -> 11:21.800] if a team's not there.
[11:21.800 -> 11:24.320] But it does look like Mercedes are struggling.
[11:24.320 -> 11:25.920] And even though they say this
[11:25.920 -> 11:29.920] at the beginning of every year, apparently, apparently they always are someone's going
[11:29.920 -> 11:33.280] to beat us, you know, they love doing that. Tactics, innit? When you look at that car
[11:33.280 -> 11:37.680] and you look how much it's bumping around, you look at them spinning out, it just doesn't
[11:37.680 -> 11:41.520] look great. What do they call it? Porpoising or something this year. Yeah, I didn't really
[11:41.520 -> 11:46.280] get that. So that's just when the car goes up and down loads. Yeah in slow-mo it looks like they're shaking their booty. Do you feel
[11:46.280 -> 11:50.720] like that's the new dimension of the car? They haven't quite got right yet and it'll
[11:50.720 -> 11:54.120] get better throughout the season. I think it's because they're too low, so they have
[11:54.120 -> 11:58.360] to raise them up to stop that happening. So apparently the FIA took out the suspension
[11:58.360 -> 12:04.640] they needed. There was like a suspension that would be perfect for this car, I think, but
[12:04.640 -> 12:05.760] they made them remove it
[12:05.760 -> 12:10.160] because apparently I broke the rules, so that's another reason why they're so like that.
[12:10.160 -> 12:17.280] So I don't really know, but yeah, the times it came in was Max Verstappen got the fastest
[12:17.280 -> 12:23.900] time by quite a long way as well, by like nearly, I don't know, like half a second.
[12:23.900 -> 12:25.560] What was the time?
[12:25.560 -> 12:27.240] 1.31.720.
[12:27.240 -> 12:30.920] See, I only get 1.33 on the game.
[12:30.920 -> 12:31.920] Bear in mind this is-
[12:31.920 -> 12:32.740] What?
[12:32.740 -> 12:35.240] Yeah, yeah, let that sink in for me.
[12:35.240 -> 12:37.480] I'm two seconds behind Verstappen.
[12:37.480 -> 12:40.080] Well, so you think if you get in that Red Bull right now,
[12:40.080 -> 12:41.800] you go to that garage and just get in,
[12:41.800 -> 12:43.760] you could do that lap in 1.33?
[12:43.760 -> 12:44.600] Yeah, a few laps.
[12:44.600 -> 12:48.320] Could you be quicker in real life than on a controller?. Few laps. You'd be much quicker in real life
[12:48.320 -> 12:50.920] I know you, I've seen you drive. You've seen me drive.
[12:52.240 -> 12:59.960] Dangerous fucking driver. I am NOT a dangerous driver. I am a bloody good driver. You are a good driver. Yeah, Max Verstappen fastest
[13:00.960 -> 13:02.400] second fastest
[13:02.400 -> 13:05.040] Mick Schumacher. Oh, do you know what?
[13:05.040 -> 13:08.640] I did see that somewhere on the internet.
[13:08.640 -> 13:10.760] Third, Charles Leclerc.
[13:10.760 -> 13:13.000] Fourth, Fernando Alonso.
[13:13.000 -> 13:14.200] Fifth, George Russell.
[13:14.200 -> 13:15.360] Sorry, say that again.
[13:15.360 -> 13:16.200] Fernando Alonso.
[13:16.200 -> 13:17.520] Yeah, where?
[13:17.520 -> 13:18.360] Fourth.
[13:18.360 -> 13:19.180] Alonso.
[13:19.180 -> 13:21.360] Practice, mate, you ain't gonna get sick.
[13:21.360 -> 13:22.200] Imagine, imagine.
[13:22.200 -> 13:24.000] Look, you keep throwing out this shit on me.
[13:24.000 -> 13:24.840] George Russel.
[13:24.840 -> 13:26.240] Russel, George Russel.
[13:27.280 -> 13:28.440] George Russel.
[13:28.440 -> 13:30.600] Why can we never talk when we're calling this podcast?
[13:30.600 -> 13:33.320] Like when we talk in real life, we just talk normally.
[13:33.320 -> 13:35.680] We're still learning, we're new to this podcast and thing.
[13:35.680 -> 13:37.200] We're doing as good as we can.
[13:37.200 -> 13:38.680] George Russel, fifth.
[13:38.680 -> 13:40.960] Vowrey Bottas, sixth.
[13:40.960 -> 13:42.240] No Hamilton yet.
[13:42.240 -> 13:44.000] Sonoda, seventh.
[13:44.000 -> 13:45.840] Perez, eighth eighth Norris ninth
[13:46.680 -> 13:52.560] Magnuson 10th Kevin Magnuson's back Magnuson is back. You love Kevin Magnuson, don't you?
[13:52.560 -> 13:55.200] What's been your highlight of him in his previous racing career?
[14:00.400 -> 14:06.000] Rejoining has in 2022 probably as all I know He's had 120 races in his F1 career.
[14:06.000 -> 14:07.760] Really? Who with?
[14:09.000 -> 14:10.040] A Haas.
[14:10.040 -> 14:10.960] We literally watched it.
[14:10.960 -> 14:12.760] He was the guy, I think it was his car
[14:12.760 -> 14:13.800] that had the wheel put on, you know,
[14:13.800 -> 14:14.840] when both Haas cars.
[14:14.840 -> 14:15.680] No.
[14:15.680 -> 14:16.500] It was, that was him.
[14:16.500 -> 14:19.480] He come back, he's made the ultimate return to Haas.
[14:19.480 -> 14:21.840] So he left halfway through last year?
[14:21.840 -> 14:25.800] I mean, yeah, he left at the end of last season he got
[14:25.800 -> 14:31.160] replaced and then he's now come back he was in the well not the end of last
[14:31.160 -> 14:34.400] season because they had Mazpin Schumacher before that. What was he doing
[14:34.400 -> 14:39.360] in between then? E-driving? I think he went to Formula E or something like that, I can't
[14:39.360 -> 14:44.040] remember exactly or IndyCar or something I don't remember exactly what it was but
[14:44.040 -> 14:49.580] yeah he's had 120 races in F1 he's only ever had one podium and he's registered 35 points but
[14:49.580 -> 14:53.180] yeah has got a great time it looks like they're going into a season with a good
[14:53.180 -> 14:56.700] car it's gonna be really interesting like I said these times aren't gonna be
[14:56.700 -> 14:59.900] what is gonna happen in qualifying which is why we're gonna give you our
[14:59.900 -> 15:03.340] constructors predictions today I want to know the difference between some of the
[15:03.340 -> 15:05.340] lap times I mean what's the margins?
[15:11.360 -> 15:17.920] So Verstappen was 1.31.720 and Magnussen was 1.33.207 So there's two seconds. And Magnussen was 10th. Right. Yeah, right. I mean two seconds. That's still not not a lot
[15:17.920 -> 15:21.680] But Hamilton's not even in the top 10 and George Russell
[15:22.400 -> 15:24.400] George Russell is fifth
[15:24.600 -> 15:28.280] Do you think it's the car? do you think Hamilton's doing this deliberately?
[15:29.120 -> 15:32.580] Could be could be a game plan. You don't know you can slap it
[15:32.580 -> 15:34.880] Honestly acts like he's got a shit car for a bit
[15:34.880 -> 15:37.640] I think going in I think last year was so crazy, right?
[15:37.640 -> 15:42.080] But I think going into this year the sports blown up the teams are gonna know it
[15:42.080 -> 15:46.200] There's gonna be a whole new set of tactics going into this year.
[15:46.200 -> 15:51.140] Obviously Hamilton should have won last year and he didn't so there's gonna be even more
[15:51.140 -> 15:52.580] tactics and, do you know what I mean?
[15:52.580 -> 15:57.300] Like fear mongering, trying to scare the other team or just fake it out or something, I don't
[15:57.300 -> 15:58.300] know but.
[15:58.300 -> 15:59.300] It's made me so excited.
[15:59.300 -> 16:02.980] This time next week we're filming this on the Sunday, it's going live on the Monday.
[16:02.980 -> 16:06.760] Oh yeah, if you haven't yet followed us us please do follow the podcast and give it five
[16:06.760 -> 16:12.640] stars but this next this time next week first race can not wait it's gonna be
[16:12.640 -> 16:25.000] unbelievable yeah before we go completely off the Netflix what the Pumpernickel. Pumpernickel. Do his whole order. Do his whole order. I can't do it.
[16:25.000 -> 16:26.000] Yeah, pumpernickel but like a cookie.
[16:26.000 -> 16:36.000] I'd like two eggs, cooked sunny side up with two slices of pumpernickel.
[16:36.000 -> 16:38.600] It doesn't even sound like it.
[16:38.600 -> 16:40.600] What does he sound like?
[16:40.600 -> 16:41.600] That's Gunther.
[16:41.600 -> 16:46.800] I can't do any accents. I like a little bit of salt and pepper
[16:46.800 -> 16:49.560] and a latte with lactose free milk.
[16:49.560 -> 16:53.160] But what is a Pampinickle?
[16:53.160 -> 16:54.800] It's like German bread.
[16:54.800 -> 16:57.320] Makes me laugh how Netflix are focusing on that.
[16:57.320 -> 16:59.160] Sounds like a vegetable, doesn't it?
[16:59.160 -> 17:01.080] Probably I'm just thinking of a pumpkin.
[17:03.200 -> 17:09.040] We found out who the guy was from the event.
[17:09.040 -> 17:10.040] The guy.
[17:10.040 -> 17:11.920] We found out who the guy was.
[17:11.920 -> 17:15.440] It was not as exciting as UF1 fans hoped.
[17:15.440 -> 17:16.440] It was exciting for me.
[17:16.440 -> 17:18.700] It was really exciting for Fab.
[17:18.700 -> 17:23.000] So just to go back to last podcast, I think we mentioned that at the event that we were
[17:23.000 -> 17:30.440] at, there was a guy wearing a skin-tight leather jacket perfect white hair crystal blue eyes
[17:30.440 -> 17:36.440] tanned handsome beautiful man handsome bloke this has got a little bit weird
[17:36.440 -> 17:42.120] yeah but yeah we kind of we knew he was probably someone important but couldn't
[17:42.120 -> 17:45.520] really decide who or why he was there.
[17:45.520 -> 17:50.960] And then I found out through a mutual friend that he was, he's the guy who puts on the
[17:50.960 -> 17:52.760] Isle of Wight festival.
[17:52.760 -> 17:54.800] And that's very good for Fab because he makes music.
[17:54.800 -> 17:55.800] Yeah.
[17:55.800 -> 17:57.040] So hopefully you'll get to meet him again.
[17:57.040 -> 17:58.280] Not so good that I didn't talk to him.
[17:58.280 -> 18:00.920] Not so good that you didn't talk to him.
[18:00.920 -> 18:08.320] Oh well.
[18:08.320 -> 18:12.440] So with us being one week away from the season, we thought we would have to bring you our
[18:12.440 -> 18:14.720] Constructors predictions.
[18:14.720 -> 18:19.160] The same way we brought you the drivers, we're going to just bring you our list of 10 of
[18:19.160 -> 18:21.960] how we think the Constructors are going to finish this season.
[18:21.960 -> 18:28.720] Maybe give a little outline of why we think that. And have you done yours off? I guess you haven't really done yours off like how they've been practicing
[18:28.720 -> 18:34.360] You've just done it over what you actually think you didn't watch practice. Yeah, I just want to go out and as a disclaimer
[18:34.920 -> 18:41.180] Say that there is an absolutely no correlation between my constructors predictions and my drivers predictions
[18:42.040 -> 18:42.880] my drivers predictions. Well, how does that work?
[18:42.880 -> 18:45.640] Because the drivers were on the drivers for that team.
[18:45.640 -> 18:48.320] I just don't want people to get in the comments and say,
[18:48.320 -> 18:50.280] why does he think that Ferrari got a win?
[18:50.280 -> 18:51.120] Do you know what I mean?
[18:51.120 -> 18:52.920] So basically what you're saying is you've realized
[18:52.920 -> 18:54.500] you fucked up one of them.
[18:55.400 -> 18:57.360] Yeah, probably the last one.
[18:57.360 -> 18:58.320] Probably the last one.
[18:58.320 -> 18:59.160] No, I'm with you.
[18:59.160 -> 19:01.760] My constructors looks a bit different,
[19:01.760 -> 19:03.800] but it could still work with my drivers.
[19:03.800 -> 19:06.800] See, I think because there's only 10 teams it's easier to pick.
[19:06.800 -> 19:10.800] Because we were picking our top 10 last time so there's 10 drivers that you can't even include
[19:10.800 -> 19:15.800] whereas we're including every team here so I feel like we're gonna have a better match this time.
[19:15.800 -> 19:16.300] Do you?
[19:16.300 -> 19:17.800] Yeah, I do.
[19:17.800 -> 19:21.800] Well I have no idea what Fab has done and we'll just do it like we did last time.
[19:21.800 -> 19:23.800] What did you do for 10?
[19:23.800 -> 19:24.800] 10th, Haas.
[19:24.800 -> 19:25.280] Interesting, oh my god this is where it like we did last time. What did you do for 10? 10th. Has.
[19:25.280 -> 19:30.400] Interesting. Oh my god, this is where it's going to get really interesting. I've gone
[19:30.400 -> 19:40.080] Williams. I've gone Williams because it's Alex Albon and Latifi. I'm not mad behind
[19:40.080 -> 19:43.800] Latifi, I don't think he's going to get many points this season and I think Alex Albon's
[19:43.800 -> 19:47.080] got a real battle on his hands to get to grips with the other young
[19:47.080 -> 19:50.400] people on the track just to be completely honest I don't know how
[19:50.400 -> 19:54.680] they're gonna find it I don't think it's the quickest car I could be completely
[19:54.680 -> 19:59.000] wrong but I've gone for a gamble here I feel like this season's gonna be like
[19:59.000 -> 20:02.960] one like no other and I just feel like so many teams are gonna be close so I
[20:02.960 -> 20:08.280] think we're gonna see a lot of different winners this year. See I actually can't I can't give you any
[20:08.880 -> 20:15.280] Lowdown on how I think Alex albums gonna perform this year. I really don't know so many there's so many factors involved
[20:15.420 -> 20:21.280] Been away for a bit new team. It's a lot new regulations you regulations. Yep
[20:22.060 -> 20:24.060] What have you done for 9th?
[20:24.540 -> 20:29.880] Williams I've gone Alfa Romeo, which is difficult when I've said Bottas is gonna win a race
[20:29.880 -> 20:34.880] But I just feel like that that might be like that only chance. You were rinsing me earlier. No, it's you.
[20:35.680 -> 20:43.600] I struggle with Alfa Romeo. The car's so slow and Zoe's new and Bottas is probably gonna figure out that his car's
[20:43.600 -> 20:46.080] So slow really quick. How did Zoe do in testing?
[20:46.640 -> 20:49.200] I don't know, I can only see top 10, I can't see him.
[20:49.920 -> 20:50.960] Okay, so not that good then.
[20:50.960 -> 20:52.720] That was a complete fucking lie, he came...
[20:55.120 -> 20:57.120] No he didn't, Valtteri Bottas came 6th.
[20:57.680 -> 20:58.180] Okay.
[20:58.240 -> 21:00.320] That's like overall time, I can't see Zoe.
[21:00.320 -> 21:00.820] Not bad.
[21:00.820 -> 21:04.640] I just think Valtteri might get a bit fed up with that car after going from Mercedes, I don't know,
[21:04.640 -> 21:08.000] but I think that's quite a hard transition going from the fastest car on the grid to
[21:08.860 -> 21:10.860] Anyway, yeah ape
[21:11.240 -> 21:17.120] Aston Martin I've also got Aston Martin a I think that's a good place for him. I think that will get points
[21:17.120 -> 21:23.360] I think Lance Stroll might get a couple but we've both put that all really highly rated in our drivers
[21:23.360 -> 21:25.680] Yeah, so that's probably why we've got him there.
[21:25.680 -> 21:26.520] Vettel's a go.
[21:26.520 -> 21:27.520] Vettel official.
[21:28.480 -> 21:29.320] At six?
[21:33.040 -> 21:34.480] Alpine.
[21:34.480 -> 21:35.500] Alpine.
[21:35.500 -> 21:36.340] Yep.
[21:36.340 -> 21:37.180] Why did it take me?
[21:37.180 -> 21:38.000] I've got Alpine as well.
[21:38.000 -> 21:38.840] I tried to read it.
[21:38.840 -> 21:39.800] I've got Alpine as well.
[21:39.800 -> 21:41.120] At five?
[21:41.120 -> 21:44.280] Hang on, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
[21:44.280 -> 21:46.500] Well, so I had Alfa Romeo at seven.
[21:47.880 -> 21:49.840] I didn't say that, I said Aston Martin.
[21:51.280 -> 21:53.760] Aston Martin's at eight, Alfa Romeo at seven,
[21:53.760 -> 21:54.580] we skipped seven.
[21:54.580 -> 21:57.120] Oh, okay, cool, I got Aston Martin, then Alpine.
[21:57.120 -> 21:59.720] Okay, so Alpine I've got at sixth.
[21:59.720 -> 22:01.400] Okay, fair enough.
[22:01.400 -> 22:02.320] Who did you have?
[22:05.440 -> 22:07.440] Don't you even say it?
[22:07.440 -> 22:11.240] Haas. Okay, that's sick. I think
[22:11.720 -> 22:14.480] They have an amazing team this year
[22:14.480 -> 22:17.800] I think it's gone from them looking like they haven't got a lot
[22:17.800 -> 22:24.480] But I actually feel like that that Mazepin swap out has done wonders that they their team looks pumped
[22:24.480 -> 22:25.400] Can you imagine? I've seen everything online Their team looks pumped. Can you imagine?
[22:25.400 -> 22:26.220] That Magnussen's back.
[22:26.220 -> 22:27.060] I've seen everything online.
[22:27.060 -> 22:27.900] It's exciting.
[22:27.900 -> 22:30.780] Can you imagine Magnussen just taking it for us this year?
[22:30.780 -> 22:31.920] I think Mick.
[22:31.920 -> 22:33.480] I think Mick's gonna be fire.
[22:33.480 -> 22:35.080] If their car is any good,
[22:35.080 -> 22:37.240] we have no idea if their car's any good.
[22:37.240 -> 22:39.960] I'm gambling on the fact they're a lot more advanced
[22:39.960 -> 22:41.560] than they've let up.
[22:41.560 -> 22:43.440] I've seen everything they've posted online
[22:43.440 -> 22:44.280] on their socials.
[22:44.280 -> 22:48.680] They're posting a lot about the new season. Maybe they know they've let up. I've seen everything they've posted online on their socials, they're posting a lot about the new season. Maybe they know they've got something.
[22:48.680 -> 22:55.040] I'd love to know how much of an effect, and if it will, the fact that their main sponsor
[22:55.040 -> 22:58.040] is now gone, how much that's going to affect their year.
[22:58.040 -> 23:01.200] Yeah, I don't know, I don't know how the financials work, we'll have to find out about that.
[23:01.200 -> 23:02.880] It must be pre-season, right?
[23:02.880 -> 23:08.720] Yeah, well maybe Magnussen brings in quite a lot of sponsors with him as well, so maybe that's like how they do it possibly
[23:08.720 -> 23:10.720] What about fifth?
[23:10.760 -> 23:16.400] AlphaTauri AlphaTauri I've got them as well fourth think I think fifths about right fourth. I've got
[23:16.960 -> 23:18.800] McLaren yep same oh
[23:18.800 -> 23:24.080] Now we're into the tail end now. We're into the top. This is where I could be completely wrong
[23:24.600 -> 23:27.080] But I'm gambling on the fact that I believe
[23:27.080 -> 23:30.640] this season is going to be open for anyone.
[23:30.640 -> 23:33.760] So I've done the order in what I predicted.
[23:33.760 -> 23:37.280] I think now we're in the top three, just give me your top three from one, two, three, and
[23:37.280 -> 23:38.640] I'll give you mine afterwards.
[23:38.640 -> 23:44.440] In third place, I've put Mercedes.
[23:44.440 -> 23:48.360] In second place, I've put Mercedes. In second place, I've put Ferrari.
[23:48.360 -> 23:50.780] And in first place, I've put Red Bull.
[23:52.080 -> 23:52.920] Smart.
[23:52.920 -> 23:53.740] Well, sure.
[23:53.740 -> 23:54.580] Smart.
[23:55.580 -> 23:59.080] In third place, Mercedes.
[23:59.080 -> 24:02.120] Wow, we've both third placed them.
[24:02.120 -> 24:03.640] You've just done second place Ferrari.
[24:03.640 -> 24:07.120] Second place, Red Bull. And at the just done second place Ferrari. Second place Red Bull and at
[24:07.120 -> 24:15.120] the top is the mighty Ferrari! Because they're gonna win. 2022, the mighty reds are winning.
[24:15.120 -> 24:19.400] I just think it's gonna be open for anyone. We'd love to know what you guys think to our
[24:19.400 -> 24:24.200] predictions. Instagram is at pit stop and our TikTok is at pit stop so make sure you
[24:24.200 -> 24:25.080] give us a comment,
[24:25.080 -> 24:28.240] let us know what you think and let's see who's closer.
[24:28.240 -> 24:30.440] However, we're pretty, pretty close.
[24:30.440 -> 24:33.880] The fact we've both got Mercedes third is crazy.
[24:33.880 -> 24:37.320] So we kind of got a little plan to film ourselves
[24:37.320 -> 24:38.480] watching these races, right?
[24:38.480 -> 24:39.440] Yeah.
[24:39.440 -> 24:40.280] That'd be cool.
[24:40.280 -> 24:41.440] Let us know if you guys would think
[24:41.440 -> 24:42.660] that would be cool or not, but.
[24:42.660 -> 24:44.160] Before the season, we're going to put out
[24:44.160 -> 24:46.360] on our Instagram graphics of all the predictions
[24:46.360 -> 24:48.960] We've made and me and fab will be scored on points
[24:48.960 -> 24:54.060] So you guys can keep up to date with who's doing the best, but it's been a great week for Formula One
[24:54.060 -> 24:57.340] I've been trying to follow us everything as much as we can. It's been really busy for us
[24:57.400 -> 25:03.020] But one thing I really like that came out this week is Oscar Piestre. Did you see that?
[25:03.020 -> 25:06.320] He's now McLaren's reserve driver. Alpine have said
[25:06.880 -> 25:11.840] that if McLaren need him, they can have him. You know, the F2 driver from last season, the winner.
[25:12.480 -> 25:15.200] I find that really interesting. I'm looking at that a little bit and thinking,
[25:15.760 -> 25:20.800] are McLaren planning on getting Piastri in with Norris for Ricciardo?
[25:20.800 -> 25:24.560] Same with Giovinazzi and Haas, innit? I feel like Ferrari put him in.
[25:24.560 -> 25:27.380] That is a plan by McLaren there to get
[25:27.380 -> 25:31.380] Piastri in and have Piastri and Norris as teammates I really do think that. Why?
[25:31.380 -> 25:36.580] Why is Ricciardo? I don't know how much longer McLaren are going to bank on Ricciardo
[25:36.580 -> 25:40.620] unless it's a big season for him. Again I think it's up in the air with Ricciardo
[25:40.620 -> 25:43.580] I don't think you can look at last season and say that's who he is
[25:43.580 -> 25:45.860] I think he's an amazing driver. He is an amazing driver. And I don't think you can look at last season and say that's who he is. I think he's an amazing driver.
[25:45.860 -> 25:46.700] He is an amazing driver.
[25:46.700 -> 25:48.240] And I don't know what happened last year
[25:48.240 -> 25:50.860] cause I'm not deep enough into draft to survive yet.
[25:50.860 -> 25:53.520] But as soon as we find out, which will be before
[25:53.520 -> 25:55.500] the next pod, then I'll give you my actual
[25:55.500 -> 25:56.820] low down on Ricciardo.
[25:56.820 -> 25:58.500] Yeah, it's gonna be interesting.
[25:58.500 -> 26:00.740] I just really liked the fact that Alpine have said,
[26:00.740 -> 26:03.700] you know, he's yours if you want him, that's great.
[26:03.700 -> 26:09.080] Lewis Hamilton came out and said, at the moment, I don't think we will be competing for wins. That sounds like
[26:09.080 -> 26:14.000] something Lewis Hamilton would do before a season. So, do you make of that? Do you think
[26:14.000 -> 26:18.120] Mercedes will be competing for wins? I think it's all a bluff. All a bluff. I think he's
[26:18.120 -> 26:23.200] trying to say that their car isn't quick enough, good enough, when really, they just haven't
[26:23.200 -> 26:25.280] hit that little turbo boost button.
[26:25.280 -> 26:26.720] Yeah, I completely agree.
[26:26.720 -> 26:27.520] Under the seat.
[26:27.520 -> 26:28.400] Almost certainly.
[26:28.400 -> 26:29.600] That's where they, that's where it is.
[26:31.040 -> 26:32.080] In an F1 car.
[26:32.080 -> 26:34.720] You reckon they know exactly what they're doing, waiting to hit that button.
[26:34.720 -> 26:39.680] It's just, yeah, just under the seat there's a little red button you press, it's called turbo.
[26:39.680 -> 26:42.480] Start telling people this shit, because we've got new fans as well,
[26:42.480 -> 26:44.000] they probably don't even know.
[26:44.000 -> 26:46.000] There's probably people who think watching this, and you go, is there?
[26:46.000 -> 26:48.000] Do you know? Do you know?
[26:48.000 -> 26:50.000] I wouldn't be 100% sure there was.
[26:50.000 -> 26:52.000] See?
[26:52.000 -> 26:54.000] See?
[26:54.000 -> 26:56.000] So it could be true.
[26:56.000 -> 26:58.000] All you did in the last episode was film me a bullshit.
[26:58.000 -> 27:02.000] I would have won that question time so easy if you didn't get me mixed up with them two races.
[27:02.000 -> 27:04.000] It's my fault. My fault that you got the question wrong.
[27:04.000 -> 27:07.000] My fault that you got the question wrong. My fault that you got the question wrong.
[27:07.000 -> 27:09.320] Okay, I'll take the blame for that.
[27:09.320 -> 27:11.200] I'll do it, because I'm a good friend.
[27:15.240 -> 27:17.280] As you guys know, throughout these episodes,
[27:17.280 -> 27:19.720] we have been giving you our overall predictions
[27:19.720 -> 27:20.560] for the season.
[27:20.560 -> 27:22.840] We'll remind you what they are, the race just before.
[27:22.840 -> 27:24.400] Have you got a prediction for today?
[27:24.400 -> 27:25.680] Have you got your fourth prediction?
[27:25.680 -> 27:27.520] We need to give our final one next week.
[27:27.520 -> 27:28.800] Alright, let me get it up.
[27:28.800 -> 27:30.960] We did these lists ages ago,
[27:30.960 -> 27:32.800] so some of them may have changed
[27:32.800 -> 27:34.640] and they have to be quite ruthless.
[27:36.160 -> 27:38.720] We will remind you all what they are before the season
[27:38.720 -> 27:41.200] and hopefully some of us get some right.
[27:41.760 -> 27:42.800] You got one for today?
[27:42.800 -> 27:43.680] Yeah, go on then.
[27:43.680 -> 27:47.000] How else are we gonna have have a two minute pit stop?
[27:47.000 -> 27:48.000] Ow!
[27:48.000 -> 27:49.000] Why would that happen?
[27:49.000 -> 27:50.000] Something's going to go wrong.
[27:50.000 -> 27:57.200] What, so you're telling me that that is crazy?
[27:57.200 -> 27:59.400] Your predictions are like you can see into the future.
[27:59.400 -> 28:00.400] I know.
[28:00.400 -> 28:01.400] Imagine some of this shit happens.
[28:01.400 -> 28:02.400] They're so accurate, aren't they?
[28:02.400 -> 28:03.400] Imagine it happens.
[28:03.400 -> 28:04.400] It would be unbelievable.
[28:04.400 -> 28:06.000] Do you think it could happen?
[28:06.000 -> 28:10.000] Yeah, definitely. I think it could happen with anyone on the grid. It's a technical error, right?
[28:10.000 -> 28:13.000] So you're telling me the time will just say two minutes?
[28:13.000 -> 28:14.000] No.
[28:14.000 -> 28:15.000] And they'll just be sat there?
[28:15.000 -> 28:22.000] No, as in like they'll have a pit stop where they'll be in for like two minutes because something's gone horrendously wrong, like they've put another tyre on wrong or something.
[28:22.000 -> 28:27.200] Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You're saying that it's gonna they're gonna be sat there for two minutes. Yeah. For some reason I thought you
[28:27.200 -> 28:31.440] were saying they're gonna have a two second pit stop in my head. I'm confused with minutes and
[28:31.440 -> 28:35.600] seconds. Two minute pit stop, I don't even think about that prediction that is stupid.
[28:36.720 -> 28:42.160] What a stupid prediction. You've blown that. My prediction's coming a bit from Drive to Survive
[28:42.160 -> 29:06.920] and I've gone for Leclerc to win Monaco this year. Oooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhththththththththththt Ferrari's gonna be quick. I think a lot of people listening and watching at home are probably going into this new season thinking
[29:06.920 -> 29:09.120] Mercedes are probably hiding back what they got.
[29:09.120 -> 29:10.360] Red Bull are gonna be quick.
[29:10.360 -> 29:11.920] Ferrari are gonna be quick.
[29:11.920 -> 29:15.000] But it might just be a Mercedes runaway show.
[29:15.000 -> 29:17.320] I don't think we're gonna see a Mercedes runaway.
[29:17.320 -> 29:19.640] McLaren are also meant to be quick this year.
[29:19.640 -> 29:20.480] Are they?
[29:20.480 -> 29:21.680] Yeah.
[29:21.680 -> 29:23.800] They also got something up their sleeve.
[29:23.800 -> 29:24.640] You always say this.
[29:24.640 -> 29:28.000] You're like, I got secret information. got secret information, you haven't got anything.
[29:28.000 -> 29:30.000] Mate, I do. I do, no I read it somewhere.
[29:30.000 -> 29:32.000] What did you read?
[29:32.000 -> 29:39.000] I read that not just Ferrari, McLaren are also ones to watch this year because they reckon they've got something up their sleeve.
[29:39.000 -> 29:41.000] That's what I hear.
[29:41.000 -> 29:42.000] On the grapevine.
[29:42.000 -> 29:55.280] Who's the one who hasn't got the trick up their sleeve? The one whose brakes set on fire? Latifi. Who's he driving for? Williams. Alpine. No, Williams. I always answer so confidently.
[29:55.280 -> 29:58.720] His brakes caught on fire. Yeah, that was mad. There was some crazy things that happened
[29:58.720 -> 30:03.200] at Test in Paris. Span out. I think Hamilton went wide, might have span as well. There's
[30:03.200 -> 30:06.800] quite a few little moments. I think it's a different car to get used to.
[30:06.800 -> 30:09.200] There's a lot of different things on this car.
[30:09.200 -> 30:12.000] But it does make the season so exciting.
[30:12.000 -> 30:14.200] Do you reckon these cars have got horn?
[30:14.200 -> 30:15.200] Shut the fuck up.
