[01:08.000 -> 01:14.000] Here we go.
[01:14.000 -> 01:21.000] Welcome to the first ever episode of the Pit Stop Podcast.
[01:21.000 -> 01:27.040] Finally, the moment we have been waiting for. We have wanted to release episode one for so
[01:27.040 -> 01:33.600] long and finally we are here. I'm Jake. I'm Fab. And we're going to be your hosts on this F1
[01:33.600 -> 01:39.200] podcast we had never watched an F1 race five months ago and now here we are hosting an F1
[01:39.200 -> 01:45.400] podcast. Yeah, it's a bit of a weird feeling but it's also exciting. We're very new to the sport,
[01:46.260 -> 01:48.520] but we do think that we can bring
[01:48.520 -> 01:50.040] some sort of entertainment level.
[01:50.040 -> 01:51.720] I mean, we could definitely bring the entertainment.
[01:51.720 -> 01:53.520] Yeah, maybe not the facts.
[01:53.520 -> 01:58.520] But, yeah, we're new to the sport, like Jake just said,
[01:58.840 -> 02:01.920] and we do know that there's a lot of new fans as well.
[02:01.920 -> 02:04.880] So yeah, come along with us on this journey.
[02:04.880 -> 02:05.240] It's going to be
[02:05.240 -> 02:08.560] really exciting, really fun, and we hope you guys enjoy it.
[02:08.560 -> 02:12.680] Oh mate, there's so many new fans. Things like Drive to Survive, the end of last season.
[02:12.680 -> 02:19.240] I truly believe that Formula One is probably in the biggest place it has ever been media-wise.
[02:19.240 -> 02:23.160] Do you think it's at the pinnacle? Do you think it's got more people watching now more
[02:23.160 -> 02:24.160] than ever?
[02:24.160 -> 02:29.120] 100% mate. You can just tell, just through watching the F1. I think the F1 have made
[02:29.120 -> 02:33.880] a conscious effort to like up their game. Yeah, they have with all the graphics, everything
[02:33.880 -> 02:39.520] on social media, it's become a proper worldwide sport with everyone posting, you scroll through
[02:39.520 -> 02:43.880] TikTok, it's just people making videos and all that and all these new fans and that was
[02:43.880 -> 02:45.280] one of the main reasons we wanted to do
[02:45.280 -> 02:49.700] this podcast we're new f1 fans and we feel like we have a
[02:50.800 -> 02:52.800] Good knowledge on it
[02:53.120 -> 02:57.320] But you'll find out at the end of the podcast how good we really are because we asked you guys questions
[02:57.320 -> 03:02.880] Every f1 fan should know the answer to and yeah, we're gonna answer some of them
[03:02.880 -> 03:05.680] We're gonna try and address those to our best ability.
[03:06.000 -> 03:10.640] But before we do get into that, I think it's important to just sort of talk
[03:10.640 -> 03:13.440] about how we got into doing this.
[03:13.680 -> 03:15.800] I mean, you just mentioned about Drive to Survive.
[03:16.400 -> 03:19.040] I would say we probably both fell in love with the sport
[03:19.240 -> 03:21.080] through watching that on Netflix.
[03:21.080 -> 03:24.560] I truly believe if we had never watched Drive to Survive,
[03:24.600 -> 03:27.240] I probably would have no interest.
[03:27.240 -> 03:31.040] And for me, there's a few reasons, cutting it short,
[03:31.040 -> 03:33.480] I never actually liked Formula One before.
[03:33.480 -> 03:36.360] We'll talk about more in detail of how we found out
[03:36.360 -> 03:38.880] about all this stuff, but I never even liked cars.
[03:38.880 -> 03:40.220] I've never even liked cars.
[03:40.220 -> 03:41.520] But out of nowhere, Drive to Survive,
[03:41.520 -> 03:44.120] thought it was hilarious, thought Haas were hilarious.
[03:44.120 -> 03:47.920] I mean, if someone's getting a wheel wrong twice on a car that shit is genius.
[03:51.600 -> 03:55.600] All right, all right, okay, so Fab's mic. Technical fault. Yeah, what are we doing?
[03:55.600 -> 03:59.680] It's technical fault. Give me two seconds guys. I'm just gonna freestyle while Fab does that.
[04:02.640 -> 04:07.680] So I started watching Drive to Survive. I'd never ever watched any Formula One related
[04:07.680 -> 04:12.480] stuff before and I just found it hilarious that Gunther was like on his phone begging
[04:12.480 -> 04:18.240] for money off this guy and out of that I basically became a bit of a Haas fan but then at the
[04:18.240 -> 04:22.800] same time I don't really like Haas but I am an Arsenal fan so it makes perfect sense,
[04:22.800 -> 04:25.160] support the team that never win anything and don't have any money.
[04:25.160 -> 04:28.000] Yeah, he's fixing it, he's fixing it.
[04:28.000 -> 04:30.360] We had a bit of an issue in the studio there.
[04:30.360 -> 04:32.000] You see in the behind the scenes.
[04:32.000 -> 04:33.000] Oh!
[04:33.000 -> 04:34.000] What a disaster.
[04:34.000 -> 04:37.000] Sorry guys, we're so sorry about this.
[04:37.000 -> 04:41.000] The wine has gone everywhere.
[04:41.000 -> 04:42.360] Alright, cut.
[04:42.360 -> 04:44.000] Cut for two seconds.
[04:44.000 -> 04:49.320] Fuck. Right. Okay Fab is back, he has managed
[04:49.320 -> 04:54.520] to stick his mic back on the stand. We're back in action baby, sorry about that. Slight
[04:54.520 -> 04:58.640] technical difficulties on episode one. Yeah. Yeah as I was saying we got into it from Drive
[04:58.640 -> 05:05.440] to Survive but interestingly, apparently a lot of people don't like Drive to Survive.
[05:05.440 -> 05:07.840] They've got to be like the diehard F1 fans, right?
[05:07.840 -> 05:11.520] Who are like, it's all about the driving and nothing else.
[05:11.520 -> 05:13.520] I mean, yeah, probably.
[05:13.520 -> 05:15.360] But I can see why.
[05:15.360 -> 05:20.200] Because after watching some stuff on like social media, I've seen that they like have
[05:20.200 -> 05:23.280] put clips in the wrong places to build almost fake storylines.
[05:23.280 -> 05:29.840] And apparently they've also built false, like people not liking liking each other they haven't actually not liked each other they just
[05:29.840 -> 05:34.000] edited it like oh yeah they edited the but that's obviously netflix they're gonna they're gonna i
[05:34.000 -> 05:38.240] love it because there's more to a story i think there's value in a brand when you build it more
[05:38.240 -> 05:42.800] than just the race i mean when you're interested in these people it's five times more interesting
[05:42.800 -> 05:47.560] 100% mate i think they've just i think if they do create a bit of a narrative around it,
[05:47.560 -> 05:49.600] it is more interesting.
[05:49.600 -> 05:51.400] It doesn't take away from the sport.
[05:51.400 -> 05:54.040] Like they're still racing cars at the end of the day.
[05:55.000 -> 05:57.720] But no, I mean, I speak for myself,
[05:57.720 -> 05:59.920] but also loads of other people.
[05:59.920 -> 06:01.160] It has done wonders.
[06:01.160 -> 06:04.160] Yeah, I think it's brought over so many new fans.
[06:04.160 -> 06:10.480] And like Fab said at the beginning, that is the aim of this podcast to reach new fans and old fans. We want new
[06:10.480 -> 06:14.200] fans to come on this journey with us, learn with us, laugh with us and we want old fans
[06:14.200 -> 06:17.560] to come over and think these guys don't have a fucking clue what they're talking about.
[06:17.560 -> 06:22.760] These guys are two idiots. Why are these two people making an F1 podcast? This makes no
[06:22.760 -> 06:25.160] sense. Well welcome you are
[06:25.160 -> 06:33.800] a perfect audience. Thank you for tuning in, all two of you. But no it's funny
[06:33.800 -> 06:37.880] because just to dive into it quickly I mean I know probably a lot of people
[06:37.880 -> 06:41.480] don't care at the moment but um so you've always sort of done YouTube. Mm-hmm
[06:41.480 -> 06:50.500] yeah I've always been a YouTuber and done social media stuff ever since I was in school. You kind of put YouTube on the back burner I would
[06:50.500 -> 06:55.100] say and and you got more into like doing transfers which is a football page that
[06:55.100 -> 06:59.920] you run. I think YouTube gave me some amazing opportunities really young but
[06:59.920 -> 07:07.280] I've always loved business so when I had the opportunity to build transfers, which is sports and football, it was amazing.
[07:07.280 -> 07:11.180] But for me, it's hard to work in your passion.
[07:12.200 -> 07:14.880] Like transfers is that I love football,
[07:14.880 -> 07:16.960] but for me, it's the same as this.
[07:16.960 -> 07:19.280] For us, this is just a bit of fun, right?
[07:19.280 -> 07:21.040] And that's the beauty about this.
[07:21.040 -> 07:23.160] Yeah, that's the exact word I was gonna use.
[07:23.160 -> 07:29.280] It's definitely like a beauty in doing something which you maybe not know everything about. You can be more loose about this. Yeah, that's the exact word I was going to use. It's definitely like a beauty in doing something which you maybe not know everything about. You can be more loose about
[07:29.280 -> 07:33.800] it. You don't have to be so factual. I want us to get stuff wrong. I want us to learn.
[07:33.800 -> 07:37.440] I want to engage with the people. That's why I love the fact we got these questions for
[07:37.440 -> 07:41.280] the end of the podcast. Every F1 fan should know the answer to. I ain't going to know
[07:41.280 -> 07:46.360] the fucking answer to any of them. It's funny, yeah. And we're hosting an F1 podcast.
[07:46.360 -> 07:47.360] I love that.
[07:47.360 -> 07:52.000] Some people may be thinking why are we called Pitstop as well? Do you want to give them
[07:52.000 -> 07:54.520] the backstory of where that's come from and how we got here?
[07:54.520 -> 07:59.000] Yeah, so Jake has this kind of really crazy ability to like be able to claim names and
[07:59.000 -> 08:03.120] stuff like that online and he kind of made it very obvious to me in the beginning that
[08:03.120 -> 08:05.040] it's very important to have the correct name.
[08:05.040 -> 08:08.720] So he managed to get a name for a boxing page,
[08:08.720 -> 08:09.840] which I'm not going to mention
[08:09.840 -> 08:11.800] because someone might steal it,
[08:11.800 -> 08:13.840] but he got the name and we were like, that's cool.
[08:13.840 -> 08:17.720] Let's start a boxing page, but it didn't really feel right.
[08:17.720 -> 08:19.440] And then what, so we moved in together.
[08:19.440 -> 08:20.280] I'll tell you what it was,
[08:20.280 -> 08:21.520] when we were planning the boxing one,
[08:21.520 -> 08:23.240] I think even though we were passionate about it
[08:23.240 -> 08:28.040] and had plans, it never felt like we really wanted to do it.
[08:28.040 -> 08:30.260] It would have felt like work, I think.
[08:30.260 -> 08:32.200] Well, we always wanted to start a business together.
[08:32.200 -> 08:33.680] It was a business really, wasn't it?
[08:33.680 -> 08:34.620] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[08:35.840 -> 08:38.520] And then, so I moved in with Jake up in London
[08:38.520 -> 08:42.760] back in October, and it was just completely out of the blue.
[08:42.760 -> 08:44.440] Like you just came into my room one morning
[08:44.440 -> 08:46.480] and was like, mate, we got the name Pit Stop. And I was like, bosh the blue like you just came into my room one morning and was like mate We got the name pit stop
[08:46.480 -> 08:48.580] And I was like bash. Let's just do it
[08:48.580 -> 08:54.360] We hit it and we had a hundred K in 30 days had we already started watching drive to survive by then you would finished it
[08:54.400 -> 08:58.300] Yeah, we'd finished it. So we already had the interest in that's probably all we claim the name
[08:58.300 -> 09:03.280] Yeah, so yeah, so we already had started we had already watched drive to survive. We hadn't watched an f1 race
[09:03.280 -> 09:06.660] Do you remember we got pit stop and then I was like, when's the next F1 race?
[09:06.660 -> 09:08.040] And then it was like the next day.
[09:08.040 -> 09:09.640] And we went in there and watched it.
[09:09.640 -> 09:11.640] Man, the stars have a line for this, I swear.
[09:11.640 -> 09:13.840] We honestly hadn't watched an F1 race
[09:13.840 -> 09:15.120] before we moved in together.
[09:15.120 -> 09:16.280] And as soon as Fab got here,
[09:16.280 -> 09:18.880] we claimed Pit Stop and just built an F1 business.
[09:18.880 -> 09:20.800] And we've been so passionate about it.
[09:20.800 -> 09:22.600] We've been making graphics about stats
[09:22.600 -> 09:24.120] and we've actually been doing that,
[09:24.120 -> 09:27.860] one, so Fab can learn Photoshop, and two, so we can learn. Like we've been making graphics about stats and we've actually been doing that one so Fab can learn Photoshop and two so we can learn. Like
[09:27.860 -> 09:31.280] we've been reading Google and reading all these stats and trying to make these
[09:31.280 -> 09:35.760] graphics about F1 to learn about it but the whole goal since like once we
[09:35.760 -> 09:39.000] started growing it is we were like we want to make video content on this.
[09:39.000 -> 09:41.920] That came from us like when we were watching the races and Yuki Tsunoda
[09:41.920 -> 09:46.400] spinning out of the first corner. We were going crazy. And that is hilarious by the way.
[09:46.400 -> 09:47.240] When I said to you,
[09:47.240 -> 09:49.560] Yuki Tsunoda is going to spin out of the first corner.
[09:49.560 -> 09:51.280] And in that race, what happens?
[09:51.280 -> 09:54.580] Yeah, all unfolds, Yuki Tsunoda, first corner.
[09:54.580 -> 09:56.680] It's mad though, because it seems so long ago now
[09:56.680 -> 09:58.320] that like we started watching the F1.
[09:58.320 -> 09:59.440] Like, but at the same time,
[09:59.440 -> 10:02.760] it seems like all of this has happened so quickly.
[10:02.760 -> 10:04.400] And there's so much more that we want to do,
[10:04.400 -> 10:10.160] which we will talk about in future episodes. But we are pretty much at the start of this has happened so quickly and there's so much more that we want to do which we will talk about in future episodes but we are pretty much at the start of this and yeah like I've
[10:10.160 -> 10:15.600] said before it's a really an exciting time and uh we should probably oh yeah just to mention
[10:15.600 -> 10:19.280] the new series of Drive to Survive has been announced that it's coming out when's that
[10:19.280 -> 10:24.080] like 11th of March 11th of March 11th of March season four it is interesting that a lot of
[10:24.080 -> 10:25.240] people don't like Drive Survive.
[10:25.240 -> 10:27.620] I can't wait to see the response to this podcast.
[10:27.620 -> 10:28.660] That's another thing we'll say,
[10:28.660 -> 10:31.280] this is literally a podcast between us and you.
[10:31.280 -> 10:33.180] Our Instagram is at Pitstop.
[10:33.180 -> 10:35.040] Make sure you follow this podcast.
[10:35.040 -> 10:36.280] Give it a five star review.
[10:36.280 -> 10:38.840] Anything other than a five star, don't bother.
[10:38.840 -> 10:40.160] And if you've got any feedback,
[10:40.160 -> 10:42.360] just message us on Pitstop.
[10:42.360 -> 10:44.800] And yeah, we'd love to hear from you guys.
[10:44.800 -> 10:46.400] But yeah, this is to be a fun journey.
[10:46.400 -> 10:52.400] Yeah we're very, sorry, we're very aware that the F1 community is like very tight-knit.
[10:52.960 -> 10:55.760] Yeah we want to be in with you guys, we want to be your friends.
[10:55.760 -> 10:59.360] Yeah so you know if you think we are chatting absolute shite,
[10:59.360 -> 11:03.520] let us know and we'll try and change what we do, do you know what I mean?
[11:04.560 -> 11:09.000] But yeah no, so I mean last season, man.
[11:09.000 -> 11:10.000] Oh yeah, let's get into that.
[11:10.000 -> 11:12.000] Oh my God, I just want to say straight off the bat,
[11:12.000 -> 11:16.000] I think we're so lucky to have had the last season that we have had
[11:16.000 -> 11:21.000] because it was absolutely insane and we didn't even really know what we were watching.
[11:21.000 -> 11:22.000] That was the best bit about it.
[11:22.000 -> 11:25.760] We had no idea that we were watching
[11:25.760 -> 11:26.960] the best season of all time.
[11:26.960 -> 11:30.080] You've got two US One fans who have started watching it
[11:30.080 -> 11:32.840] and we had no idea how close it even was.
[11:32.840 -> 11:35.440] We didn't, and I can honestly truthfully say that,
[11:35.440 -> 11:36.840] we didn't fall in love with the sport
[11:36.840 -> 11:39.320] because it was like everyone else was being like,
[11:39.320 -> 11:40.720] this is the best thing I ever watched.
[11:40.720 -> 11:42.320] I didn't get that from anyone else.
[11:42.320 -> 11:45.700] I actually just, we naturally started watching it
[11:45.700 -> 11:47.500] and then figured out what was going on.
[11:47.500 -> 11:49.180] And then by the end of the last race, we were like,
[11:49.180 -> 11:51.180] holy shit, they're level on points.
[11:51.180 -> 11:53.620] Well, our friends don't watch it.
[11:53.620 -> 11:55.060] No, none of our friends watch it.
[11:55.060 -> 11:56.300] It's all football for them.
[11:56.300 -> 11:58.540] Yeah, they're all football or like golf or something.
[11:58.540 -> 12:00.020] However, now we've started doing this,
[12:00.020 -> 12:02.460] everyone's slowly showing a little bit of interest,
[12:02.460 -> 12:03.300] aren't they?
[12:03.300 -> 12:04.740] They're slowly getting into the conversations
[12:04.740 -> 12:06.440] and what's he calling?
[12:06.440 -> 12:07.440] Nico Riccardo.
[12:07.440 -> 12:08.840] Nico Riccardo, yeah.
[12:08.840 -> 12:12.120] Go on Jake, name an F1 driver.
[12:12.120 -> 12:14.120] Nico, Nico Riccardo.
[12:17.000 -> 12:18.920] I'd actually love to get some of our friends.
[12:18.920 -> 12:20.120] That's actually an amazing idea,
[12:20.120 -> 12:22.000] is to get a few of our friends on as guests.
[12:22.000 -> 12:23.400] Cause they, I mean, we don't know much,
[12:23.400 -> 12:25.240] but they have a lot of fucking clue.
[12:25.240 -> 12:28.280] So that would be genius.
[12:28.280 -> 12:30.120] Honestly, I've learned something new every day,
[12:30.120 -> 12:31.760] especially with all these liveries coming out.
[12:31.760 -> 12:34.320] Everyone online is like picking out all these little things,
[12:34.320 -> 12:36.600] saying how their cars are like different lengths
[12:36.600 -> 12:38.120] and the wheels are at different points.
[12:38.120 -> 12:39.640] I'm honestly just looking at it going,
[12:39.640 -> 12:41.040] that's a fucking nice color.
[12:41.040 -> 12:42.920] Well, we did think that like,
[12:42.920 -> 12:44.760] we thought that every car was the same, didn't we?
[12:44.760 -> 12:45.200] I thought every car was the same. I thought every
[12:45.200 -> 12:50.480] car was the same. This is another conversation me and Fab have. We said, how much percent do you
[12:50.480 -> 12:56.880] think the car has? For example, is the car like a hundred ninety percent and the drivers ten percent?
[12:56.880 -> 13:02.240] So what's the best way to describe what I'm trying to say? How important is the car? Yeah. So what's
[13:02.240 -> 13:07.200] the playing field level? So the thing that we were talking about the other day was like, if you put Mazepin in
[13:07.200 -> 13:09.440] a Mercedes car, what would happen?
[13:09.440 -> 13:15.000] And I'm pretty sure I said it'd still come 19th, which is better than 20th.
[13:15.000 -> 13:20.000] I truly believe you put Mazepin in that Mercedes and Mazepin would come 7th.
[13:20.000 -> 13:22.000] Really, in the points?
[13:22.000 -> 13:25.200] I don't know actually, because I don't think the car is that big.
[13:25.200 -> 13:27.000] It sounds like you've got a bit of a thing for Mazda.
[13:27.000 -> 13:28.000] Mate, I...
[13:28.000 -> 13:30.000] Well, you wait till my predictions.
[13:30.000 -> 13:32.000] We're doing season predictions at the end.
[13:32.000 -> 13:33.000] Can't wait for that.
[13:33.000 -> 13:36.000] No, I think the car is very important,
[13:36.000 -> 13:39.000] but I think there's got to be, like, there's limits, right?
[13:39.000 -> 13:41.000] So there's got to be a level playing field with it.
[13:41.000 -> 13:43.000] Obviously, some cars have more money and they have better teams
[13:43.000 -> 13:45.000] and they're going to have better stuff on the car.
[13:45.000 -> 13:50.000] But I reckon it is like 90% driver, 10% car.
[13:50.000 -> 13:53.000] Really? That's very debatable.
[13:53.000 -> 13:56.000] Because I don't feel like the cars can really be that different.
[13:56.000 -> 13:58.000] There'll be the minor differences.
[13:58.000 -> 14:02.000] You've got to think, they're only the good people on the track are like lapping.
[14:02.000 -> 14:05.880] But everyone else on the field is probably like two, three.
[14:05.880 -> 14:08.320] Maybe, you know, people listen, people listen to this guy.
[14:08.320 -> 14:09.480] This guy's fucking slacks.
[14:09.480 -> 14:10.320] I'm just sitting here.
[14:10.320 -> 14:11.480] Even watch the race.
[14:11.480 -> 14:12.320] My head's going round.
[14:12.320 -> 14:15.000] People on the track are two, three seconds apart.
[14:15.000 -> 14:15.840] And then I'm thinking, no, they haven't.
[14:15.840 -> 14:17.320] There's like 18 seconds between cars.
[14:17.320 -> 14:19.000] And then I'm like, for fuck's sake, I'm just blowing it.
[14:19.000 -> 14:19.880] No, I, yeah.
[14:19.880 -> 14:22.480] For that, you have to look more at the qualifying, I guess.
[14:22.480 -> 14:24.160] Well, let's compare it, Max and Hamilton.
[14:24.160 -> 14:27.720] You put Max in Hamilton's car last season.
[14:27.720 -> 14:30.440] Does Max still win the championship in that Mercedes?
[14:30.440 -> 14:32.360] Yeah, 100%, only because I know that,
[14:32.360 -> 14:35.500] like, I saw an amazing clip on YouTube, yeah?
[14:35.500 -> 14:36.720] So like, when you watch Formula One,
[14:36.720 -> 14:40.120] it's all shot at ground level with cameras,
[14:40.120 -> 14:41.400] essentially, like, nice cameras.
[14:41.400 -> 14:42.720] But when you actually watch it from, like,
[14:42.720 -> 14:47.360] someone taking a film on their phone from the grandstand or the bandstand, whatever you call it.
[14:47.360 -> 14:49.040] You can see how downforce.
[14:49.040 -> 14:53.200] You can just see how fast they are. And like it's a certain track where there's like a high speed
[14:53.200 -> 14:54.560] corner and you saw like.
[14:54.560 -> 14:55.760] Oh yeah, that must be Monaco.
[14:56.160 -> 15:00.880] Oh yeah, something like that. I think it was Brands Hatch.
[15:04.240 -> 15:06.340] Is that even an F1 track, not an F1 track.
[15:09.000 -> 15:12.320] I got a bit.
[15:12.320 -> 15:13.800] I swear it's Silverstone.
[15:13.800 -> 15:15.480] I don't even know.
[15:15.480 -> 15:16.560] We've never been to an F1.
[15:16.560 -> 15:17.960] Oh no Fab has.
[15:17.960 -> 15:19.560] I've never been to an F1 race.
[15:19.560 -> 15:21.400] That's the goal for this season.
[15:21.400 -> 15:23.720] Pit stop goes to an F1 race.
[15:23.720 -> 15:27.160] It doesn't really count me going though. Cause I was quite young. I don't remember a lot
[15:27.160 -> 15:28.160] of it.
[15:28.160 -> 15:29.160] You still went mate.
[15:29.160 -> 15:32.160] I still went, I've got the badge. I have got an F1 hat and an F1 t-shirt.
[15:32.160 -> 15:33.160] I've got nothing.
[15:33.160 -> 15:34.160] Which doesn't fit because I'm eight years old.
[15:34.160 -> 15:38.320] Well you've got an F1 t-shirt now, you've got a Mercedes top on and I've got a Red Bull
[15:38.320 -> 15:44.440] top on. So I guess that brings us to a good point of saying like, who's your favourite
[15:44.440 -> 15:47.680] driver? Driver? Schumacher.
[15:49.120 -> 15:53.760] Okay. And Ferrari's my favorite team and I'm sat here in a Mercedes t-shirt. Is that what you're
[15:53.760 -> 15:58.800] getting at? That's what you're getting at. Well you can imagine we bought these t-shirts towards
[15:58.800 -> 16:02.800] the end of last season and it was like well let's get Mercedes and a Red Bull t-shirt because we're
[16:02.800 -> 16:08.000] new fans. I'm not gonna lie I purely bought a white t-shirt so it made my tan pop.
[16:09.720 -> 16:13.080] I'm going to get so much hate from every F1 fan because of that.
[16:13.520 -> 16:14.040] I'm just going to get it.
[16:14.040 -> 16:17.760] People are going to think these guys are British, like surely they should support McLaren.
[16:18.000 -> 16:19.280] I don't know how it works.
[16:19.280 -> 16:22.640] Because we're British, does that mean we should follow Hamilton because he's British
[16:22.960 -> 16:25.400] or we should follow McLaren because Norris is British?
[16:25.400 -> 16:29.520] Are you meant to like for example football your English you support England?
[16:29.520 -> 16:34.660] Hmm, I think it's quite a valid question for newer fun fans. Do you support who you love?
[16:34.660 -> 16:40.180] I mean, I have loads of harsh much fuck knows why I just thought they were
[16:40.700 -> 16:45.360] Hilarious and drive to survive and actually quite like that blue jumper and Gunther is a legend.
[16:45.360 -> 16:46.400] Pretty much the whole of that,
[16:46.400 -> 16:48.480] was it the second season was about Haas?
[16:48.480 -> 16:49.320] Yeah, mate.
[16:49.320 -> 16:51.280] Because there was so much shit going on.
[16:51.280 -> 16:52.440] Well, I need more money!
[16:52.440 -> 16:56.160] Sponsors dropping out left, right and center.
[16:56.160 -> 16:58.240] Blues want more chance!
[16:58.240 -> 16:59.600] Ah, mate, class.
[16:59.600 -> 17:02.080] And yeah, well, I got the Haas jumper.
[17:02.080 -> 17:02.920] But I don't really know why-
[17:02.920 -> 17:04.640] Hang on, you didn't just get a Haas jumper,
[17:04.640 -> 17:06.880] you bought like pretty much every single damn team
[17:06.880 -> 17:07.720] in the fucking store.
[17:07.720 -> 17:08.560] I bought that fucking little iron top,
[17:08.560 -> 17:09.800] didn't I, but it's fucking women's.
[17:09.800 -> 17:11.520] And you bought the Aston Martin one.
[17:11.520 -> 17:13.520] Yeah, I got an Aston Martin, I've bought loads of stuff now.
[17:13.520 -> 17:16.240] And I've spent loads of money on little mini champs cars.
[17:16.240 -> 17:17.760] Yeah, which are cool,
[17:17.760 -> 17:19.200] you could probably show those at some point.
[17:19.200 -> 17:21.560] They're pretty cool, some are quite rare.
[17:21.560 -> 17:23.200] Yeah, you got a Senna one, didn't you?
[17:23.200 -> 17:24.320] I got loads, mate.
[17:24.320 -> 17:28.080] I got the whole Senna collection from like 1840.
[17:28.080 -> 17:29.840] Definitely not 1841.
[17:29.840 -> 17:30.680] 1841.
[17:30.680 -> 17:31.520] 1981 or some shit.
[17:31.520 -> 17:34.160] When they were racing on bloody horseback.
[17:34.160 -> 17:36.600] This is the new Ferrari horse mate.
[17:36.600 -> 17:37.720] It's a Shire horse.
[17:37.720 -> 17:40.240] She's got great legs, a lovely tail.
[17:40.240 -> 17:41.360] So you're team Ferrari.
[17:41.360 -> 17:43.320] You think Ferrari are going to be big dogs in 2022,
[17:43.320 -> 17:44.240] don't you?
[17:44.240 -> 17:49.000] Yeah, I do. Purely because... I don't know.
[17:49.000 -> 17:52.000] What is it about their car that you love?
[17:52.000 -> 17:58.000] You have to understand that I am like quarter Italian and my name is Fabio,
[17:58.000 -> 18:01.000] my dad's side of the family is Italian so I kind of have to support Ferrari.
[18:01.000 -> 18:06.780] But also because the best driver in the world drove for Ferrari, which is Michael Schumacher.
[18:07.840 -> 18:08.680] Nice.
[18:11.680 -> 18:14.520] I've just always wanted a Ferrari too.
[18:14.520 -> 18:15.600] So I kind of sat there like,
[18:15.600 -> 18:16.840] do you reckon everyone else agrees
[18:16.840 -> 18:19.440] that Schumacher is the best driver of all time?
[18:19.440 -> 18:21.120] He's definitely the GOAT.
[18:21.120 -> 18:23.020] He's definitely the GOAT.
[18:23.020 -> 18:26.120] From being a kid, like he was the only name I knew,
[18:26.120 -> 18:28.160] even though I didn't like racing.
[18:28.160 -> 18:30.840] I can remember it being on and showing no interest.
[18:30.840 -> 18:33.280] So bored of it, honestly, that's the truth.
[18:33.280 -> 18:34.720] I just thought it was too long.
[18:34.720 -> 18:36.280] But I can remember the name Schumacher,
[18:36.280 -> 18:39.520] and clearly he's got enough records to be named as a GOAT,
[18:39.520 -> 18:42.120] and he's won the driver's title seven times.
[18:42.120 -> 18:43.520] It's absolutely incredible.
[18:44.880 -> 18:47.000] But there's gonna be a lot of people,
[18:47.000 -> 18:50.080] new fans, younger people, that are probably Team Hamilton.
[18:50.080 -> 18:52.680] And they're like, Hamilton's won the same,
[18:52.680 -> 18:54.200] but probably got more records.
[18:54.200 -> 18:55.640] Oh, I don't know.
[18:55.640 -> 18:56.480] To be fair.
[18:56.480 -> 18:59.400] I don't know, but Hamilton does have a lot of records.
[18:59.400 -> 19:03.200] But Schumacher also holds some incredible records.
[19:03.200 -> 19:04.720] If Hamilton had won that last season,
[19:04.720 -> 19:06.800] then he would have been on par, or won better. Well, no, they're 7 that last season and he would have been on par or won better.
[19:06.800 -> 19:09.840] Well no, they're 7-7 so he would have been eight.
[19:09.840 -> 19:13.480] Yeah, I spent so long building a Hamilton graphic
[19:13.480 -> 19:14.880] to beat him for his eight,
[19:14.880 -> 19:16.680] for then it was Stamford and Under-Paddock
[19:16.680 -> 19:18.400] and like, oh for God's sake!
[19:18.400 -> 19:21.480] That's what makes what we do so exciting though.
[19:21.480 -> 19:23.600] What do you think about that last race of the season?
[19:23.600 -> 19:26.640] Two new F1 fans giving you their opinion on that last race of the season? Two new F1 fans giving you their opinion
[19:26.640 -> 19:28.520] on that last bit of the season.
[19:28.520 -> 19:30.240] Okay, bear in mind, we don't know the rules.
[19:30.240 -> 19:31.440] I'm going to be completely honest with you.
[19:31.440 -> 19:33.400] We don't know what should happen and what,
[19:33.400 -> 19:37.160] but give your opinion on that last lap.
[19:37.160 -> 19:40.240] I'm going to be dead straight and honest with you right now.
[19:40.240 -> 19:42.640] And I might get hate for this, but I don't care.
[19:42.640 -> 19:45.600] I thought it was like one of the best things
[19:45.600 -> 19:48.560] that could have happened for the sport.
[19:48.560 -> 19:51.420] And I don't care if people say that it was unfair, whatever.
[19:51.420 -> 19:53.560] The whole reason that this whole thing
[19:53.560 -> 19:55.320] is like blown up right now
[19:55.320 -> 19:58.820] is because of the controversy around what happened.
[19:58.820 -> 20:00.020] I love it.
[20:00.020 -> 20:03.600] Yeah, I look at it in the same aspect as you, okay?
[20:03.600 -> 20:05.760] I see it from Hamilton's point of view.
[20:05.760 -> 20:07.240] You're one of the best drivers in the world
[20:07.240 -> 20:08.500] and you're about to break the record
[20:08.500 -> 20:11.340] of the Drivers' Championship and that happens to you.
[20:11.340 -> 20:12.940] You're gonna be fucking pissed off.
[20:12.940 -> 20:13.780] So is Toto.
[20:13.780 -> 20:15.960] Toto's a legend, by the way, and shout out Horner.
[20:15.960 -> 20:16.800] Shout out Horner.
[20:16.800 -> 20:17.640] Boys.
[20:17.640 -> 20:18.460] Man like Christian.
[20:18.460 -> 20:20.200] We wanna get them to the bar at some point
[20:20.200 -> 20:21.040] and do an episode with him.
[20:21.040 -> 20:24.560] We're quite hopeful, considering we don't know fuck all.
[20:24.560 -> 20:28.720] But yeah, I think if you're Hamilton or Toto or Mercedes,
[20:28.720 -> 20:30.640] you're going to be gutted about it.
[20:30.640 -> 20:32.560] But I do think Fab is right.
[20:32.560 -> 20:35.440] It was the best thing that could have happened for the sport.
[20:35.440 -> 20:39.580] The anticipation, the media, everything around it.
[20:40.560 -> 20:45.000] And it's just like, if it had ended on a safety car,
[20:45.000 -> 20:48.560] the millions of new fans watching that final race
[20:48.560 -> 20:51.240] would have been like, for God's sake.
[20:51.240 -> 20:53.060] Same again.
[20:53.060 -> 20:56.380] Hamilton has won, oh, safety car, Max doesn't even have,
[20:56.380 -> 20:58.060] you have to think about it from that point of view,
[20:58.060 -> 20:59.460] no matter who you support,
[20:59.460 -> 21:00.940] you have to think about it from the point of view,
[21:00.940 -> 21:03.580] everyone's supporting your sport, making your sport bigger.
[21:03.580 -> 21:04.780] It's just better for the sport.
[21:04.780 -> 21:07.240] I mean, it might put ticket prices up, which sucks a little
[21:07.240 -> 21:12.600] bit, I mean we've been looking at going to our first F1 race together, it's quite expensive,
[21:12.600 -> 21:17.560] but it is a weekend ticket. So, I mean it's quite cool that it's a weekend thing, but
[21:17.560 -> 21:20.120] yeah if you're Hamilton you're pissed off, if you're Total Wolf you're pissed off, if
[21:20.120 -> 21:26.000] you're Verstappen you're laughing. It does seem weird how it was allowed to happen, maybe?
[21:26.000 -> 21:30.360] There's a bit like, how on earth did they manage to pass
[21:30.360 -> 21:33.160] that every car is just gonna drive off
[21:33.160 -> 21:35.080] and Verstappen is gonna sit in line?
[21:35.080 -> 21:38.160] When we play it on F1 2022, you know as well as I do,
[21:38.160 -> 21:41.280] that if you pass a safety car or overtake someone
[21:41.280 -> 21:43.440] on like the yellow flag, you just get disqualified
[21:43.440 -> 21:45.080] or something, straight away. We play F1 2022 by the way,. You just get disqualified or something. Straight away.
[21:45.080 -> 21:46.840] We play F1 2022 by the way.
[21:46.840 -> 21:48.280] I am shit.
[21:48.280 -> 21:49.120] Fab's quite good.
[21:49.120 -> 21:51.160] We've been absolutely smashing it, haven't we?
[21:51.160 -> 21:52.400] You're well good at it.
[21:52.400 -> 21:53.520] You're getting better.
[21:53.520 -> 21:54.840] I just hit the wall every time.
[21:54.840 -> 21:56.080] I don't want to blow smoke up your ass,
[21:56.080 -> 21:57.560] but you're getting pretty good.
[21:57.560 -> 22:00.360] We're playing on like 75% difficulty.
[22:00.360 -> 22:02.560] They're laughing at us now.
[22:02.560 -> 22:04.560] They're all in their wheels and that.
[22:04.560 -> 22:07.280] Oh yeah, no, we're still playing with a controller.
[22:07.280 -> 22:08.120] Yeah.
[22:08.120 -> 22:09.440] But we do, I've actually looked online,
[22:09.440 -> 22:12.200] you can get a Red Bull like driving simulator.
[22:12.200 -> 22:16.240] It is a thousand pound, but Red Bull, if you're listening,
[22:16.240 -> 22:17.400] you would really like it because,
[22:17.400 -> 22:18.800] I know this actually makes sense, right?
[22:18.800 -> 22:20.620] Because we talk about having guests on.
[22:20.620 -> 22:21.460] Yeah.
[22:21.460 -> 22:24.740] And how cool would it be if we got to the point
[22:24.740 -> 22:25.540] where we're having drivers
[22:25.540 -> 22:30.480] on and interviewing them. And then every time we have a new driver on after the poddy, they
[22:30.480 -> 22:35.760] can go in and do a lap in the simulator. That would be my dream. It'd be like Top Gear.
[22:35.760 -> 22:41.080] Well, mate, 100% the thing with this podcast is we're both passionate people. We've known
[22:41.080 -> 22:48.280] each other since we were school. Since we were school. Yo, we were school, since we were at school.
[22:48.280 -> 22:51.800] We've jumped on this idea and we're so excited for this.
[22:51.800 -> 22:53.440] Anything could happen with it.
[22:53.440 -> 22:56.400] And we just want to talk to F1 fans.
[22:56.400 -> 22:58.540] We just want to have a conversation with you all.
[22:58.540 -> 23:01.960] And yeah, my summary of the last race of that season is,
[23:01.960 -> 23:04.160] it was the best thing that could have happened for the
[23:04.160 -> 23:04.980] sport.
[23:04.980 -> 23:06.440] I think going into the new season everyone truly
[23:06.440 -> 23:10.840] believes that anyone can win. Absolutely. Whether it was the best thing for
[23:10.840 -> 23:14.480] Michael Massey's career or not is a different story.
[23:14.480 -> 23:16.480] No Michael, no! It's so wrong!
[23:16.480 -> 23:18.480] No Michael, no! It's so not right!
[23:18.480 -> 23:25.120] Oh man, is this even allowed? Are we even allowed to say this kind of stuff?
[23:25.120 -> 23:25.960] I don't know.
[23:25.960 -> 23:28.280] Oh, fuck this.
[23:28.280 -> 23:30.960] But no, yeah, I think we're just,
[23:30.960 -> 23:32.960] me personally, I'm completely overwhelmed.
[23:32.960 -> 23:35.640] Like I've had, I've always been music my whole life,
[23:35.640 -> 23:37.200] and then now all of a sudden there's this like
[23:37.200 -> 23:38.880] whole new thing which has just come in.
[23:38.880 -> 23:39.800] I find it crazy, mate.
[23:39.800 -> 23:40.640] It's crazy.
[23:40.640 -> 23:42.080] The whole time I've ever known you,
[23:42.080 -> 23:43.440] all it's been is music, music.
[23:43.440 -> 23:44.280] What are you working on?
[23:44.280 -> 23:48.240] Music, music. Fabzidaband, awesome music, but it's always just been the same thing.
[23:48.240 -> 23:51.640] I never even expected him to be on camera, let alone be in a podcast.
[23:51.640 -> 23:53.800] But then you could probably say the same thing.
[23:53.800 -> 23:57.840] Five months ago, the last thing you'd expect me to do a podcast on
[23:57.840 -> 23:59.960] would be Formula One when I own a football business.
[23:59.960 -> 24:00.280] Yeah.
[24:00.280 -> 24:02.120] Like it's come from nowhere.
[24:02.120 -> 24:04.120] But there's a beauty, like when we said it already,
[24:04.120 -> 24:05.880] there's a beauty in doing something
[24:05.880 -> 24:08.200] which you're not like totally infatuated by
[24:08.200 -> 24:11.140] because I think you see things from a different angle.
[24:11.140 -> 24:14.280] I think if you're so into something, right?
[24:14.280 -> 24:16.400] Like, cause I see it with you, right?
[24:16.400 -> 24:20.220] So I'm so, my head is so buried deep in music, right?
[24:20.220 -> 24:22.320] That like I have do's and don'ts,
[24:22.320 -> 24:23.640] things that I do and won't do.
[24:23.640 -> 24:25.960] And the same with you, you're so into football,
[24:25.960 -> 24:29.600] that I think I ask you questions sometimes,
[24:29.600 -> 24:31.600] which maybe you haven't thought about before,
[24:31.600 -> 24:33.120] and you do the same thing with me.
[24:33.120 -> 24:35.320] Like I have my ways of doing things in music,
[24:35.320 -> 24:37.520] but because your head's just not in the music,
[24:37.520 -> 24:39.440] sometimes you say things to me,
[24:39.440 -> 24:41.080] which is so completely outrageous,
[24:41.080 -> 24:43.220] and I'm like straight away, I'm like, nah, that's stupid.
[24:43.220 -> 24:44.320] But then when you think about it,
[24:44.320 -> 24:47.000] it's just a different perspective and everything's valid.
[24:47.000 -> 24:50.240] So like, I think the fact that we are coming into the F1
[24:50.240 -> 24:52.220] and don't know a lot about it,
[24:52.220 -> 24:53.820] maybe we're going to ask questions,
[24:53.820 -> 24:56.320] which like someone wouldn't have asked.
[24:56.320 -> 24:58.400] And create conversations that a lot of other people
[24:58.400 -> 25:00.440] would have bounced around or for example,
[25:00.440 -> 25:03.920] well, the perfect scenario is the end of last season.
[25:03.920 -> 25:07.280] A lot of F1 fans who've been watching the sport for years might be mad pissed off about
[25:07.280 -> 25:08.960] it, but we're happy about it.
[25:08.960 -> 25:09.960] Gassed about it.
[25:09.960 -> 25:10.960] Because it was unbelievable.
[25:10.960 -> 25:12.840] Well, it gave us the reason to do this.
[25:12.840 -> 25:13.840] Oh yeah, 100%.
[25:13.840 -> 25:16.560] I've got a question for you.
[25:16.560 -> 25:17.560] Shoot.
[25:17.560 -> 25:23.120] So, as I started watching Formula 1, and because of his personality, and because of the fact
[25:23.120 -> 25:25.400] that every time I went on YouTube and searched his name,
[25:25.400 -> 25:27.560] it came up with him doing like five minute,
[25:27.560 -> 25:29.400] oh, did you know Valtteri Bottas?
[25:29.400 -> 25:30.920] He's got the longest ever pit stop,
[25:30.920 -> 25:32.200] and it's like three days,
[25:32.200 -> 25:34.000] because they couldn't get his wheel off the car.
[25:34.000 -> 25:35.200] That is hilarious.
[25:35.200 -> 25:37.080] The only reason I know that is because we Googled it
[25:37.080 -> 25:38.000] and made a graphic about it,
[25:38.000 -> 25:39.760] but no, I wouldn't have known otherwise.
[25:39.760 -> 25:40.600] That's probably how I knew that.
[25:40.600 -> 25:42.280] I didn't even know I'd just told you that.
[25:42.280 -> 25:45.320] But yeah, I started really liking Valtteri Bottas.
[25:45.320 -> 25:46.160] And-
[25:46.160 -> 25:46.980] He's a sweetheart in it.
[25:46.980 -> 25:51.980] I think he should never have left Mercedes.
[25:53.280 -> 25:55.360] Oh, there's going to be a lot of people
[25:55.360 -> 25:57.220] that are going to be like, Russell's going to be amazing.
[25:57.220 -> 25:59.400] But we haven't watched long enough
[25:59.400 -> 26:02.160] to know how good Russell is, to be honest.
[26:02.160 -> 26:03.940] Like I don't even know how good Russell is.
[26:03.940 -> 26:09.520] I've just seen Valtteri Bottas qualifying pole, putting in amazing laps, being a great teammate.
[26:09.520 -> 26:12.360] Well, that's literally what it is, mate.
[26:12.360 -> 26:13.360] And now I'm like, where's he gone?
[26:13.360 -> 26:15.160] Mate, that's literally what it is. Teammate.
[26:15.160 -> 26:16.160] Do you think?
[26:16.160 -> 26:20.320] And that might sound brutal, but I think a lot of people will agree with me. If you're
[26:20.320 -> 26:24.800] a teammate to Lewis Hamilton, what can you expect, really?
[26:24.800 -> 26:27.080] Yeah, but you can't put two people,
[26:27.080 -> 26:29.680] does it work putting two people actually competing
[26:29.680 -> 26:31.200] for the title in the same team?
[26:31.200 -> 26:33.400] No, and that's why I agree with you.
[26:33.400 -> 26:34.600] Do you not think then they're just putting
[26:34.600 -> 26:36.360] another teammate in with Russell?
[26:36.360 -> 26:37.560] Well, yeah, until Lewis Hamilton.
[26:37.560 -> 26:38.440] Do you think they're doing it, yeah,
[26:38.440 -> 26:40.520] because he's young and work his way up?
[26:40.520 -> 26:42.080] Yeah, I don't think he's like,
[26:42.080 -> 26:45.080] he's not like a dirty driver, is he, George Russell? I don't know. But no, Bottas, I don't think he's like, he's not like a dirty driver, is he? George Russell.
[26:45.080 -> 26:46.320] I don't know.
[26:46.320 -> 26:48.680] But no, Bottas, I think Bottas was like
[26:48.680 -> 26:52.160] a very tactical driver, kind of safe in a way,
[26:52.160 -> 26:53.800] but still like quick as hell.
[26:53.800 -> 26:55.760] How do you think he'll get on at Romeo?
[26:56.720 -> 26:58.720] Didn't even know he was going to Romeo.
[27:00.040 -> 27:01.400] Where did you think he was going?
[27:01.400 -> 27:02.240] Thought he was just leaving.
[27:02.240 -> 27:04.120] Nah mate, he's going to Romeo.
[27:04.120 -> 27:05.480] Who's his teammate then?
[27:05.480 -> 27:07.080] Zoe.
[27:07.080 -> 27:09.880] Oh, right.
[27:09.880 -> 27:10.720] That's quite good,
[27:10.720 -> 27:12.080] because you've got someone like Bottas
[27:12.080 -> 27:14.560] who can like hold his hand through the rookie season.
[27:14.560 -> 27:15.400] Yeah.
[27:15.400 -> 27:16.360] Whereas you've got like,
[27:16.360 -> 27:19.640] when you know when Haas had Schumacher and Mazepin,
[27:19.640 -> 27:21.560] they were both like rookie drivers, weren't they?
[27:21.560 -> 27:22.400] I believe.
[27:22.400 -> 27:24.680] They've still got Schumacher and Mazepin now.
[27:24.680 -> 27:28.320] Yeah. But they're not rookies anymore, right?
[27:28.320 -> 27:30.240] Well, no, they've just raced for a season.
[27:30.240 -> 27:31.080] Yeah, so.
[27:31.080 -> 27:32.440] I don't know, you're still a rookie
[27:32.440 -> 27:34.160] until you like get a point or something,
[27:34.160 -> 27:37.200] because Mazepin didn't even get a Q1 for all season.
[27:37.200 -> 27:38.040] God.
[27:38.920 -> 27:39.760] Poor guy.
[27:39.760 -> 27:41.160] We're going to get into that later on,
[27:41.160 -> 27:42.520] because we've made some predictions.
[27:42.520 -> 27:44.640] He's probably actually a sick driver, you know.
[27:44.640 -> 27:47.280] Do you reckon it's a car then? Because both of them have come out and there's been the
[27:47.280 -> 27:50.880] quotes of them saying like we need to work better as a team and there's issues within
[27:50.880 -> 27:56.160] the team. So what do you think it is at Haas? Because like we've always said, Schumacher,
[27:56.160 -> 27:57.160] GOAT.
[27:57.160 -> 27:58.160] It's the team, mate.
[27:58.160 -> 28:02.600] I am probably only interested in Haas because it's Schumacher and I know the name Schumacher
[28:02.600 -> 28:05.720] and I want to see Mick Schumacher in a Ferrari
[28:05.720 -> 28:06.920] winning the world championship.
[28:06.920 -> 28:09.640] And the fact that he is now Ferrari's third,
[28:09.640 -> 28:12.080] Ferrari's reserve driver, I think.
[28:12.080 -> 28:12.900] Yeah, no he is.
[28:12.900 -> 28:14.520] Yeah, that's unbelievable.
[28:14.520 -> 28:15.880] That makes me happy.
[28:15.880 -> 28:17.320] As someone new coming into the sport,
[28:17.320 -> 28:19.040] same as you, you just want to see him at Ferrari.
[28:19.040 -> 28:20.440] It's such a touchy subject.
[28:20.440 -> 28:23.600] It's not touchy, but like, it's a very deep subject
[28:23.600 -> 28:25.120] because of everything that happened with his dad.
[28:25.120 -> 28:26.280] And that is so gutting.
[28:26.280 -> 28:30.320] Like you got, I don't want this podcast to drop into,
[28:30.320 -> 28:31.400] you know, things like this,
[28:31.400 -> 28:35.040] but I will say it's absolutely heartbreaking
[28:35.040 -> 28:37.240] because you've got one of the greatest drivers of all time
[28:37.240 -> 28:41.960] who isn't even able to speak to his son, who is doing-
[28:41.960 -> 28:42.800] He doesn't even-
[28:42.800 -> 28:44.560] Exactly what he would have ever wanted him to do.
[28:44.560 -> 28:45.800] I don't think he even knows, does he?
[28:45.800 -> 28:48.000] Imagine how much he would want to tell his dad about it.
[28:48.000 -> 28:49.600] Imagine how powerful they would be.
[28:49.600 -> 28:53.500] It's so sad to talk about a massive respect to Mick for getting in that car.
[28:53.500 -> 28:54.800] It's actually giving me goosebumps, mate.
[28:54.800 -> 28:55.500] Yeah, it's crazy.
[28:55.800 -> 29:00.900] The fact Mick's in that car and the fact Mick is battling and battling in the worst car on the grid.
[29:01.200 -> 29:04.500] All I want is success for Mick, like more than anything.
[29:04.500 -> 29:08.000] I think he'll be a good driver. I do think a lot of it is down to the team. I mean,
[29:08.000 -> 29:15.040] how do you put a wheel on wrong twice? It wasn't the same bloke.
[29:15.040 -> 29:19.040] It was the same race. I swear it was one car after the other. I think it was.
[29:19.040 -> 29:22.400] It was the same and it was the same bloke. I'm pretty sure he would have got the sack.
[29:22.400 -> 29:26.500] I think they were actually doing all right. I think in that race, one of them was like,
[29:26.500 -> 29:31.000] I could be so wrong here, but I swear from the Netflix thing,
[29:31.000 -> 29:33.000] that one of the cars was like seventh or something.
[29:33.000 -> 29:35.500] And they were actually doing like the best they'd done for ages,
[29:35.500 -> 29:37.000] and then he put the wheel on wrong.
[29:37.000 -> 29:38.000] Similar...
[29:38.000 -> 29:41.500] That could be completely fucking wrong there, probably 19th or 20th.
[29:41.500 -> 29:44.500] Similar story to old Lando, our boy Lando.
[29:44.500 -> 29:45.540] When he was... I think there may have been a crash or something, and they're probably 19th or 20th. Similar story to old Lando, our boy Lando.
[29:45.540 -> 29:47.980] When he was, I think there may have been a crash
[29:47.980 -> 29:50.180] or something, but he was winning the race
[29:50.180 -> 29:51.780] and then rain started to fall.
[29:51.780 -> 29:53.380] And there was like two laps to go.
[29:53.380 -> 29:54.600] What did they tell him to come in?
[29:54.600 -> 29:57.560] They were like, Lando, you need to come in
[29:57.560 -> 30:01.540] because it's raining and you need wet weather tires on.
[30:01.540 -> 30:03.180] And he was like, no, I'm not doing it.
[30:03.180 -> 30:04.020] Cause he was winning.
[30:04.020 -> 30:05.360] And if he had have gone in
[30:05.360 -> 30:07.440] then he would have like lost the gap that he had.
[30:07.440 -> 30:08.840] Yeah, maintain the gap.
[30:08.840 -> 30:11.760] Yeah. So he was like, no, I'm staying out.
[30:11.760 -> 30:13.480] And then he slid out on like the last,
[30:13.480 -> 30:15.080] I swear it was like the last call.
[30:15.080 -> 30:17.960] That's what happens to us in that game.
[30:17.960 -> 30:20.320] We're going to do like a 17 odd lap race
[30:20.320 -> 30:21.920] and then I'll take over and just crash
[30:21.920 -> 30:24.320] into a wall right at the end.
[30:24.320 -> 30:25.520] I haven't said that though.
[30:25.520 -> 30:26.520] Lando's a legend.
[30:26.520 -> 30:27.360] Lando is a legend.
[30:27.360 -> 30:28.180] We love Lando.
[30:28.180 -> 30:29.020] Oh, we love all the drivers.
[30:29.020 -> 30:31.160] We're just, we don't dislike anyone.
[30:31.160 -> 30:32.280] We love everyone.
[30:32.280 -> 30:33.880] We're trying to learn everything
[30:33.880 -> 30:35.880] and we're just happy to be here.
[30:35.880 -> 30:37.720] But that gives you a summary
[30:37.720 -> 30:39.760] of a little bit of our F1 knowledge.
[30:39.760 -> 30:42.000] But we want to end our first podcast
[30:42.000 -> 30:45.000] by going through some of the questions you guys sent in
[30:45.000 -> 30:50.500] and they are questions every F1 fan should know the answer to.
[30:50.500 -> 30:55.500] Now, neither of us had seen these and we've decided that Fab's going to take the top of the replies on Instagram
[30:55.500 -> 30:56.500] and I'm going to take the bottom.
[30:56.500 -> 30:58.500] So, Fab's just loading them up now.
[30:58.500 -> 31:01.000] And once we've done these, we'll give you our season predictions.
[31:01.000 -> 31:09.120] We're going to have five each and they'll run throughout the season and we'll be scored on them and all you guys will know what they are. They're not allowed to be
[31:09.120 -> 31:12.720] easy things, they have to be funny shit. Wait, so am I going from the top or the bottom? You just
[31:12.720 -> 31:15.760] go from wherever you want because I haven't seen them. Okay. Just give me like a couple of
[31:15.760 -> 31:26.400] questions just so the people can realise what where our F1 knowledge is. Okay, I'm gonna go straight in here with this one. This one was sent in by Carlos Hines.
[31:26.400 -> 31:27.900] One, two, three, four.
[31:27.900 -> 31:31.880] Carlos Hines has asked,
[31:31.880 -> 31:35.160] which is the hardest track in F1?
[31:35.160 -> 31:37.160] Monaco, I can't even get past the...
[31:38.360 -> 31:39.200] You've driven it?
[31:39.200 -> 31:41.040] Yeah, yeah, a couple of times.
[31:41.040 -> 31:42.360] I'm going by the game.
[31:42.360 -> 31:43.560] I'd say Monaco,
[31:43.560 -> 31:47.280] because it's hard to overtake. Yeah. So it's
[31:47.280 -> 31:52.800] all on grid position. Singapore is actually really tight as well. And also is it Abu? No.
[31:52.800 -> 31:56.000] What's the one where Max went into the wall and qualified? Is that Singapore?
[31:56.800 -> 32:01.600] Uh, no, that was not like it was the first it was like Qatar or something was that track is so quick,
[32:01.600 -> 32:05.440] but I can see how easy it is to smack that wall. When you go flying around the corner.
[32:05.440 -> 32:08.240] Can you see why it's not in the 2022 calendar now as well?
[32:08.240 -> 32:09.080] Is it not?
[32:09.080 -> 32:10.320] It was a disaster, because it was the same one that,
[32:10.320 -> 32:11.360] was it the Teefee crashed?
[32:11.360 -> 32:13.560] And that's what caused the, no.
[32:13.560 -> 32:14.400] No, you're so mean, mate.
[32:14.400 -> 32:15.240] I'm completely, I'm completely wrong.
[32:15.240 -> 32:16.060] I'm completely wrong.
[32:16.060 -> 32:16.900] I'm completely wrong.
[32:16.900 -> 32:17.740] God, I'm so sorry.
[32:17.740 -> 32:18.560] You're so off.
[32:18.560 -> 32:19.400] Delete that.
[32:19.400 -> 32:20.240] You're so off, mate.
[32:20.240 -> 32:21.060] What are you on about?
[32:21.060 -> 32:21.900] Just ignore this guy.
[32:21.900 -> 32:22.740] I don't know.
[32:22.740 -> 32:23.560] What am I on about?
[32:23.560 -> 32:24.400] I'm smoking.
[32:24.400 -> 32:25.080] I suck. Well, just ignore this guy? I'm smoking. I suck.
[32:25.080 -> 32:27.480] Well, just after a quick Google,
[32:27.480 -> 32:31.680] it is evident that it looks like Spar
[32:31.680 -> 32:33.560] is actually the hardest track.
[32:34.800 -> 32:36.520] For what reason, I don't know.
[32:39.320 -> 32:42.960] But next question, how many titles does Hamilton have?
[32:42.960 -> 32:43.780] Seven.
[32:44.720 -> 32:45.640] Correct.
[32:45.640 -> 32:46.480] Thank you.
[32:46.480 -> 32:47.300] Give me a few more.
[32:47.300 -> 32:48.140] Let's do about five, six each.
[32:48.140 -> 32:49.240] That was an easy one.
[32:49.240 -> 32:51.320] Yeah, I know that because we made loads of graphics on it.
[32:51.320 -> 32:54.980] It would have been eight, but the controversy continues.
[32:56.600 -> 32:57.760] Oh, Fab looks confused.
[32:57.760 -> 32:58.800] He's probably trying to figure out
[32:58.800 -> 33:00.280] what his question is for himself.
[33:00.280 -> 33:01.200] I can't even read.
[33:02.320 -> 33:04.640] We will say now our Instagram is at Pitstop.
[33:04.640 -> 33:06.440] So if you do want to send in questions,
[33:06.440 -> 33:08.640] get involved for the next episode, give us a follow.
[33:08.640 -> 33:10.280] Make sure you're following this podcast.
[33:10.280 -> 33:11.640] Give it a five star review.
[33:12.800 -> 33:14.240] If you don't want to give it a five star review,
[33:14.240 -> 33:15.080] that's fine.
[33:15.080 -> 33:16.240] Just don't give it a review.
[33:16.240 -> 33:19.600] Okay, so I've got one here.
[33:19.600 -> 33:21.220] What is DRS?
[33:22.880 -> 33:26.200] When you're within exactly under a second
[33:26.200 -> 33:28.320] of the car behind, that thing on the back of your car
[33:28.320 -> 33:31.680] opens up and you get in the slipstream, so you go quicker.
[33:31.680 -> 33:35.240] But if you're more than a second, you're in dirty air.
[33:35.240 -> 33:37.520] So that's actually not good.
[33:37.520 -> 33:40.720] But when you're within, like under a second
[33:40.720 -> 33:42.280] and it's dropping, dropping, dropping,
[33:42.280 -> 33:44.800] and if you're directly behind, cars use it to pick up speed,
[33:44.800 -> 33:46.800] swing round and get round.
[33:46.800 -> 33:48.860] But you can only do it in DRS zones.
[33:50.200 -> 33:52.980] You don't just get DRS all the time.
[33:52.980 -> 33:53.820] All right.
[33:53.820 -> 33:54.800] I think.
[33:54.800 -> 33:55.640] Nice.
[33:55.640 -> 33:58.160] Oh yeah, no, yeah, DRS zones, absolutely correct.
[34:00.720 -> 34:03.560] Someone's asked a question here about grip,
[34:03.560 -> 34:05.920] but I'm just going to go straight to tires, right?
[34:05.920 -> 34:08.680] Oh, I knew you were going to ask me about tires.
[34:08.680 -> 34:09.520] I ain't got a clue.
[34:09.520 -> 34:11.280] Give me the names of the tires.
[34:11.280 -> 34:12.120] What kind of tires are there?
[34:12.120 -> 34:14.080] There's like three different tires, right?
[34:16.720 -> 34:17.560] All right, let's start off.
[34:17.560 -> 34:18.480] Soft, medium and hard.
[34:18.480 -> 34:19.720] Yeah.
[34:19.720 -> 34:21.600] And they're like Yamaha or something.
[34:23.120 -> 34:23.960] Nope.
[34:23.960 -> 34:25.380] Pirelli, Pirelli?
[34:25.380 -> 34:26.980] Pharrell Williams, yeah.
[34:26.980 -> 34:27.820] Pirelli.
[34:27.820 -> 34:28.640] Pirelli.
[34:28.640 -> 34:30.800] It is Pirelli, innit?
[34:30.800 -> 34:31.640] Pirelli.
[34:31.640 -> 34:32.460] But you know what's well interesting?
[34:32.460 -> 34:33.300] Pirelli.
[34:33.300 -> 34:34.140] Pirelli.
[34:34.140 -> 34:34.960] Oh, Pirelli.
[34:34.960 -> 34:35.800] Pirelli.
[34:35.800 -> 34:37.540] Do you know what's well interesting though,
[34:37.540 -> 34:39.060] that I didn't know about this?
[34:39.060 -> 34:40.300] I didn't know about this till recently.
[34:40.300 -> 34:43.140] Pirelli bring out different versions of soft,
[34:43.140 -> 34:45.760] medium and hard, depending on the track.
[34:45.760 -> 34:46.960] So like if they're in Dubai.
[34:46.960 -> 34:47.840] So it varies?
[34:47.840 -> 34:48.680] Yeah, yeah.
[34:48.680 -> 34:49.500] So if they're in Dubai,
[34:49.500 -> 34:52.800] the compound, what the tire is made up of is different.
[34:52.800 -> 34:54.120] I'm fucking not sure you're right.
[34:54.120 -> 34:54.960] Oh no, I am.
[34:54.960 -> 34:56.760] But I think I'm right.
[34:56.760 -> 34:57.600] Whatever the tire is,
[34:57.600 -> 35:01.520] like to a soft tire over like that they use for like
[35:01.520 -> 35:04.360] Silverstone in the UK will be a different soft
[35:04.360 -> 35:05.640] to what they use in Dubai
[35:05.640 -> 35:07.760] because of the climate and the tarmac.
[35:07.760 -> 35:08.800] Makes perfect sense.
[35:09.800 -> 35:12.120] Give me one more and then I'll quiz you.
[35:12.120 -> 35:12.960] All right.
[35:12.960 -> 35:14.520] Time for you to find out how smart Fab is
[35:14.520 -> 35:18.120] giving you all these Forelli shirt updates.
[35:18.120 -> 35:19.320] What is an undercut?
[35:21.840 -> 35:22.680] Dum, dum, dum.
[35:24.000 -> 35:32.880] Now, oh my god. See, a bit of me wants to say it's just when you got the inside, but
[35:32.880 -> 35:37.720] it's not because that would just be called going on the inside. I think an undercut I
[35:37.720 -> 35:42.800] know what an overcut is, I think, isn't an undercut when you pit early to gain an advantage
[35:42.800 -> 35:51.280] and an overcut is where you don't pit. So if you're undercutting someone, you're pitting early to gain the advantage of waiting
[35:51.280 -> 35:54.400] before they pit. So you're like pitting a lap before or something like that. And an
[35:54.400 -> 35:59.240] overcut would mean... Why are you looking at me like that? I think it's right. I don't
[35:59.240 -> 36:03.880] think an overcut means you like pit late. So like you let them go and you gain the advantage
[36:03.880 -> 36:05.440] of an empty track or something
[36:05.440 -> 36:07.000] or think your tyres are fine.
[36:07.000 -> 36:08.400] I think that's the difference.
[36:08.400 -> 36:09.600] Wait, if that's correct,
[36:09.600 -> 36:11.160] then fucking fair play to you mate.
[36:11.160 -> 36:12.000] Cause I-
[36:12.000 -> 36:12.820] Let's just shake on it.
[36:12.820 -> 36:14.800] I did not know that at all.
[36:14.800 -> 36:18.160] And if it's incorrect, then that is absolutely genius.
[36:18.160 -> 36:19.760] Okay, I've got a bonus one for you.
[36:19.760 -> 36:20.580] All right.
[36:20.580 -> 36:22.080] And this goes back to DRS.
[36:22.080 -> 36:23.880] What does DRS actually stand for?
[36:25.880 -> 36:26.720] Do you know what?
[36:26.720 -> 36:29.400] I didn't know, but I've just guessed it in my head.
[36:29.400 -> 36:30.240] Nothing is right.
[36:31.160 -> 36:32.000] Give me a clue.
[36:36.400 -> 36:37.240] Reduction.
[36:38.920 -> 36:42.660] Drivers, drive, drain.
[36:44.680 -> 36:49.000] Face, mate, what is that face? drive drain
[36:53.320 -> 36:53.840] Digital think about air when I was hitting reduction system
[37:00.480 -> 37:02.120] Yeah, so something reduction system. All right drag reduction system. Don't ask me a fucking question and tell me I'm sick
[37:04.120 -> 37:06.480] Right your turn. Go on.
[37:10.440 -> 37:11.280] Who has the most F1 wins of all time? Hamilton.
[37:14.520 -> 37:17.400] It's one of those where I can't even say yes or no.
[37:17.400 -> 37:18.600] Neither of us know.
[37:19.880 -> 37:22.960] I mean, it's gotta be Hamilton or Schumacher, ain't it?
[37:22.960 -> 37:24.360] Yeah, I would say Hamilton.
[37:24.360 -> 37:25.720] But, here's gotta be Hamilton or Schumacher, ain't it? Yeah, I would say Hamilton. But here's one for you.
[37:25.720 -> 37:30.160] Who is the youngest ever driver to win a Grand Prix?
[37:30.160 -> 37:31.440] Max Verstappen.
[37:32.520 -> 37:33.600] What?
[37:33.600 -> 37:34.440] Who is it?
[37:34.440 -> 37:35.720] It's Sebastian Vettel.
[37:35.720 -> 37:37.880] Max Verstappen isn't even the youngest driver
[37:37.880 -> 37:39.120] to ever win a world championship.
[37:39.120 -> 37:41.320] No, but he was the youngest driver to compete.
[37:41.320 -> 37:42.160] Do you know what?
[37:42.160 -> 37:43.120] Everything I've just said might have been wrong.
[37:43.120 -> 37:44.520] I think Sebastian Vettel might have been
[37:44.520 -> 37:47.680] the youngest ever world championship winner. I don't know. I don't know.
[37:48.560 -> 37:54.080] Just skip that one. Okay. Right, Fab, name every driver on the grid for 2020.
[37:54.800 -> 37:58.560] And I'm just going to sit back with my wine. Are you serious? And name every driver on the grid.
[37:58.560 -> 38:02.720] Oh man, you're a bastard. So what is there, 20? Yeah, so you've got, right, Verstappen,
[38:01.280 -> 38:04.300] So what is there, 20? Yeah, so you've got, right, Verstappen, Sergio.
[38:04.300 -> 38:05.140] Yeah.
[38:05.140 -> 38:08.440] You've got George Russell and Lewis Hamilton.
[38:08.440 -> 38:09.280] Yeah.
[38:09.280 -> 38:11.180] You've got Ricardo and Lando.
[38:11.180 -> 38:12.020] Yeah.
[38:12.020 -> 38:12.840] That's six.
[38:12.840 -> 38:13.680] How many more?
[38:13.680 -> 38:14.500] Fourteen to go.
[38:15.660 -> 38:17.520] You've got Zoe and Fingy,
[38:17.520 -> 38:18.800] which we just spoke about.
[38:18.800 -> 38:19.640] Bottas.
[38:19.640 -> 38:20.460] I love Fingy.
[38:20.460 -> 38:21.300] Bottas.
[38:21.300 -> 38:22.720] Mick and...
[38:22.720 -> 38:23.560] Mazepin.
[38:23.560 -> 38:24.380] Mazepin.
[38:24.380 -> 38:25.000] 10. That's 10, right, Mazepin. 10.
[38:25.000 -> 38:26.240] That's 10, right, we're halfway.
[38:26.240 -> 38:27.080] Okay, now it's getting-
[38:27.080 -> 38:30.560] Now he's got to do all the ones he ain't got a clue about.
[38:30.560 -> 38:32.160] I'm definitely missing out some big ones here.
[38:32.160 -> 38:35.400] You've got Fernando Alonso and Esteban Ocon.
[38:38.720 -> 38:41.400] At Aston Martin, you've got the Canadian lad
[38:41.400 -> 38:43.240] that no one likes.
[38:43.240 -> 38:44.080] What's his name?
[38:44.080 -> 38:44.900] Why does no one like him?
[38:44.900 -> 38:46.440] Is it because his dad got loads of money? it because his dad like got loads of money?
[38:46.440 -> 38:48.020] But surely they've all got loads of money.
[38:48.020 -> 38:51.280] Well, yeah, I think his dad either bought out a team
[38:51.280 -> 38:52.320] or he invested in a team,
[38:52.320 -> 38:53.600] but the part of the deal was like,
[38:53.600 -> 38:55.000] you have to let my son race.
[38:55.000 -> 38:56.120] Oh, we'll get into that the other day.
[38:56.120 -> 38:57.320] Yeah, strong Vettel.
[38:57.320 -> 38:59.400] Strong Vettel, thank you.
[38:59.400 -> 39:01.240] What's that, 14?
[39:01.240 -> 39:03.040] So six left.
[39:03.040 -> 39:04.440] I'm being really stupid.
[39:04.440 -> 39:09.480] Yeah, Gasly. Oh yeah, Gasly is at Alphatorre with, don't say nothing.
[39:09.840 -> 39:11.680] And it's the first corner, he spins out.
[39:11.680 -> 39:12.520] Oh, Sonoda.
[39:12.520 -> 39:13.360] Sonoda.
[39:16.800 -> 39:18.200] Have you even done Verstappen?
[39:18.200 -> 39:19.680] Yeah, so how many is left?
[39:19.680 -> 39:20.520] Four.
[39:20.520 -> 39:21.360] Who haven't you done?
[39:21.360 -> 39:22.200] Have you done Zoe?
[39:24.160 -> 39:27.320] Maybe that's all of them. I don't know. I wasn't actually counting.
[39:27.320 -> 39:29.320] Definitely not all of them, but...
[39:29.400 -> 39:31.720] Shit. I don't know. Next question.
[39:33.320 -> 39:35.320] Yeah, the answer is Fab doesn't know the answer.
[39:35.320 -> 39:42.040] I was trying to count how many you've done, but I completely missed how many you've done.
[39:44.480 -> 39:47.300] Okay, let's find you a perfect question.
[39:47.300 -> 39:52.300] Who has the most Constructors Championships?
[39:53.340 -> 39:54.240] Mercedes.
[39:56.820 -> 39:59.580] He's meant to be a Ferrari fan.
[39:59.580 -> 40:02.700] Oh no, really?
[40:02.700 -> 40:03.540] Is it really?
[40:03.540 -> 40:07.360] Hey, I think Ferrari have got quite a lot more, yeah.
[40:07.360 -> 40:09.840] I think, because think about how many winners they've had.
[40:09.840 -> 40:12.600] Well, you literally built a graphic on it the other day
[40:12.600 -> 40:15.160] and I swear it says most constructors.
[40:15.160 -> 40:16.080] You are useless, man.
[40:16.080 -> 40:17.280] I am useless, sorry.
[40:17.280 -> 40:19.000] All right, we'll give you one more.
[40:19.000 -> 40:20.280] We'll give you one more.
[40:20.280 -> 40:22.600] Who is the Iceman?
[40:22.600 -> 40:25.000] Oh, Bottas, because he's from Iceland. No, he's from Finland. The Iceman? Oh, Bottas, because he's from Iceland.
[40:25.000 -> 40:27.000] No, he's from Finland.
[40:27.000 -> 40:30.000] Is Bottas definitely the Iceman?
[40:30.000 -> 40:32.000] Because he's from Finland.
[40:32.000 -> 40:35.000] And it's quite snowy up there, no?
[40:35.000 -> 40:38.000] Something doesn't tell me it's Bottas.
[40:38.000 -> 40:39.000] It's Raikkonen then.
[40:39.000 -> 40:42.000] Yeah, it's Raikkonen, not fucking Bottas.
[40:42.000 -> 40:45.240] Where's Raikkonen from? Is he Icelandic?
[40:46.720 -> 40:49.840] No, Raikkonen is Finnish, I think.
[40:52.080 -> 40:52.920] Oh, cheers for doing that.
[40:52.920 -> 40:54.600] Would you pull off my face?
[40:54.600 -> 40:55.960] I'm sweating my way.
[40:55.960 -> 40:57.480] Probably because I'm getting all these questions wrong.
[40:57.480 -> 41:01.640] If Raikkonen isn't Finnish, well, Raikkonen is Finnish.
[41:01.640 -> 41:02.480] I know, I know.
[41:02.480 -> 41:03.920] He is finished.
[41:03.920 -> 41:05.160] Crashing out in your last race. Legend, by the way. Yeah, love Raikkonen is finished. I know, I know. He is finished. Crashing out in your last race.
[41:05.160 -> 41:06.280] Legend, by the way.
[41:06.280 -> 41:07.120] Yeah, love Raikkonen.
[41:07.120 -> 41:07.940] Absolutely.
[41:07.940 -> 41:08.780] What a boy.
[41:08.780 -> 41:10.320] My nan's favourite driver.
[41:10.320 -> 41:12.720] Yeah, that's really good to know.
[41:12.720 -> 41:13.560] I know.
[41:13.560 -> 41:17.560] I think we should probably look at wrapping this up now.
[41:17.560 -> 41:19.000] We might've just embarrassed ourselves
[41:19.000 -> 41:20.040] within the last five minutes.
[41:20.040 -> 41:21.280] So we're going to finish with-
[41:21.280 -> 41:22.760] We do have one more section.
[41:22.760 -> 41:24.280] One of our predictions.
[41:24.280 -> 41:26.720] We are going to give you five predictions,
[41:26.720 -> 41:30.120] one in like each episode between now and the end of,
[41:30.120 -> 41:31.680] you know, before the start of the season.
[41:31.680 -> 41:34.020] So we're going to give you one each time.
[41:34.020 -> 41:36.120] The way this is going to work, we're going to have five each
[41:36.120 -> 41:37.720] and they're going to run throughout the season.
[41:37.720 -> 41:40.280] So Fab, what is your prediction
[41:40.280 -> 41:41.680] that you're going to be scored on?
[41:41.680 -> 41:42.920] What are you going to say first?
[41:42.920 -> 41:45.420] This is quite, I think this will be
[41:45.420 -> 41:46.680] quite a controversial one.
[41:46.680 -> 41:49.600] And they're not allowed to be obvious or boring.
[41:49.600 -> 41:51.600] They have to be out there predictions.
[41:51.600 -> 41:52.600] Okay. Okay.
[41:52.600 -> 41:53.760] This is pretty out there.
[41:53.760 -> 41:54.600] Oh my gosh.
[41:55.560 -> 41:58.360] And I do have information to back it up.
[41:58.360 -> 41:59.200] I do.
[41:59.200 -> 42:00.020] You ain't got the shit.
[42:00.020 -> 42:01.560] I do, I've done my research.
[42:01.560 -> 42:02.640] I'm prepared.
[42:02.640 -> 42:04.900] My prediction is hash.
[42:02.680 -> 42:04.880] I've done my research, I'm prepared. My prediction is, Haas.
[42:04.880 -> 42:05.720] Pfft.
[42:05.720 -> 42:06.540] Pfft.
[42:06.540 -> 42:07.380] Pfft.

[42:26.520 -> 42:28.920] Mate, I can't ask the people to give us five star reviews
[42:28.920 -> 42:30.080] if you're gonna say stuff like that.
[42:30.080 -> 42:31.360] I do think they will.
[42:31.360 -> 42:34.960] Firstly, why have you said, within three races,
[42:34.960 -> 42:36.040] you have a whole season?
[42:36.040 -> 42:38.280] You could have just said Haas get points in a whole season.
[42:38.280 -> 42:40.360] Cause I feel like Haas is one of those teams
[42:40.360 -> 42:41.200] where they'll start off-
[42:41.200 -> 42:42.080] Back it up.
[42:42.080 -> 42:43.280] Yeah, they'll start off good.
[42:43.280 -> 42:44.360] I don't want to get too into it
[42:44.360 -> 42:45.840] cause I don't want to seem like I know it all.
[42:45.840 -> 42:48.560] I do know a lot about F1, I know everything.
[42:48.560 -> 42:49.400] Lie.
[42:50.920 -> 42:52.000] But I'm pretty sure, like,
[42:52.000 -> 42:54.840] when these new cars come out at the start of a new season,
[42:54.840 -> 42:56.240] they can start off really good
[42:56.240 -> 42:58.540] and then they make developments as the season goes on.
[42:58.540 -> 43:01.080] So like the best teams will like,
[43:01.080 -> 43:03.220] well, every team will develop their car, right?
[43:03.220 -> 43:09.300] But like, I feel like if Haas has any chance of chance of doing well it's gonna be in the first couple of races and then
[43:09.300 -> 43:12.820] it may go downhill from okay well they had 22 races and didn't score a point
[43:12.820 -> 43:18.860] last season so good luck my my one is actually the same but also very
[43:18.860 -> 43:28.920] different mine is that Nikita Mazepin will not score a point this season and if he does I'll
[43:28.920 -> 43:33.800] get a tattoo of Nikita Mazepin on me. Wow. A full-blown tattoo of Nikita Mazepin.
[43:33.800 -> 43:39.520] I'm that certain Nikita Mazepin will not get points. And you're telling me they're gonna get points in free races?
[43:39.520 -> 43:43.600] You have just gone on air on our first episode and said that if Nikita Mazepin
[43:43.600 -> 43:45.440] gets a point you were gonna get a Nikita Mazepin tattoo point, you were going to get a Nikita Mazimin tattoo.
[43:45.440 -> 43:48.440] I've got loads of shit tattoos, I don't care.
[43:48.440 -> 43:49.440] Wow.
[43:49.440 -> 43:50.440] I hope that he scores a point.
[43:50.440 -> 43:53.440] I actually hope he scores a point as well because I want to go and get a tattoo.
[43:53.440 -> 43:57.080] That would be the best content in history.
[43:57.080 -> 44:01.120] Well there we go, that is the end of the first ever episode of Pit Stop Podcast.
