[01:41.400 -> 01:44.200] about Formula One, learning as fast as they can,

[01:55.440 -> 02:02.620] disclaimer, this one is a non-videoed podcast. It's a non-vi- we're so hungover, I'm drained.
[02:02.620 -> 02:08.040] We were out last night with our mates, we ended up on a train to Brighton at 22.
[02:08.040 -> 02:10.040] How did we make that train by the way?
[02:10.040 -> 02:13.320] We were randomly in a bar, we ended up at another bar, we went to Brighton and we didn't
[02:13.320 -> 02:14.320] get back till 3am.
[02:14.320 -> 02:16.960] We were only planning to go to the pub, so.
[02:16.960 -> 02:18.120] Yeah, it's uh.
[02:18.120 -> 02:19.120] So no video today.
[02:19.120 -> 02:21.800] No video today, I'm sat here in a big dressing gown.

[02:49.760 -> 02:52.040] all things towards the race.
[02:52.040 -> 02:56.280] But today, Fab has put together a few little talking points and things to go through, haven't
[02:56.280 -> 02:57.280] you?
[02:57.280 -> 02:58.280] A few little bits, yeah.
[02:58.280 -> 03:03.000] Just going back to the ratings, we just reached 1000 ratings on Spotify.
[03:03.000 -> 03:04.760] Yeah, that's unbelievable by the way.
[03:04.760 -> 03:07.480] It says 1k next to it. That is genuinely
[03:07.480 -> 03:13.640] Yeah, it's a mate. Those are the kind of things which kind of keep you going and we hit 1k subscribers on YouTube yesterday
[03:13.640 -> 03:15.640] We did kind of another thing. We were celebrating
[03:16.320 -> 03:21.080] Yesterday. Yeah, we hit 1k on both day thousand ratings and a thousand subs. That's pretty cool
[03:21.080 -> 03:27.960] That is what we were celebrating last night and we were sat in Weatherspoons and I went on Apple Apple podcast and I was just
[03:27.960 -> 03:31.760] looking at all the reviews we've had on there some really nice stuff has been
[03:31.760 -> 03:39.360] said and we've been put in Spotify's essential f1 playlist let's fucking go
[03:39.360 -> 03:48.240] that is sick like why are we essential like what do we add? I think nothing apart from maybe a bit of comedy
[03:48.240 -> 03:53.600] I don't know. I mean yeah I what I hope is some people listening aren't I want there to be new
[03:53.600 -> 03:58.080] fans but I also want there to be people that have been watching the sport for like years and years
[03:58.080 -> 04:03.120] and they just find it fascinating two new people like coming in and at the end of the day like we
[04:03.120 -> 04:07.780] have learned a lot quick so I reckon it will very quickly become
[04:07.780 -> 04:09.340] a lot more knowledgeable than people think.
[04:09.340 -> 04:11.100] And out of nowhere, we'll just be having flowing
[04:11.100 -> 04:13.100] conversations about things that will be correct.
[04:13.100 -> 04:15.140] Maybe, or maybe not.
[04:15.140 -> 04:17.740] But that's the greatest thing.
[04:17.740 -> 04:19.140] Everyone replied to the last one.
[04:19.140 -> 04:20.340] At the YouTube video we did,
[04:20.340 -> 04:21.620] we did a bonus YouTube video.
[04:21.620 -> 04:22.620] You got to go and watch it.
[04:22.620 -> 04:23.440] Oh yeah.
[04:23.440 -> 04:27.500] And we was doing like, who guessed the driver, a bit like we did in the end of the last episode. So if you love that, you'll a bonus YouTube video you got go and watch it oh yeah and we was doing like who guessed the driver a bit like we did in the end of last episode
[04:27.500 -> 04:30.200] so if you love that you'll love the YouTube video and everyone said it was
[04:30.200 -> 04:33.860] too easy because I gave away the driver number yeah straight away but we don't
[04:33.860 -> 04:38.580] know the drivers numbers like yet I know some like a Hamilton yeah and
[04:38.580 -> 04:43.340] Verstappen's one yeah what's Hamilton then? 44. Unbelievable what's Bottas? 77.
[04:43.340 -> 04:46.160] there we go what's Riccardo? 3. There we go. What's Ricardo? 3. There
[04:46.160 -> 04:49.200] we go. So he does know a few. Keep going, keep going. They're the only ones I know because
[04:49.200 -> 04:54.000] I googled it. Carlos Sainz 55. Let's go! Is it? Or is that the Charles Declare? No, Charles
[04:54.000 -> 05:00.720] Declare's 55 and Sainz is 66, isn't it? I don't know. Okay, now we're just making idiots
[05:00.720 -> 05:04.480] of ourselves again. We were doing so well and then we just blown it. We did some TikTok
[05:04.480 -> 05:08.100] content the other day and I was calling every single corner a chicane. That didn't go down
[05:08.100 -> 05:13.580] too well. Yeah. Only a chicane has two turns back to back. There you go. I do think some
[05:13.580 -> 05:19.500] people may need to like, I don't know. We are being silly sometimes. Like I knew it
[05:19.500 -> 05:23.580] wasn't a chicane. You thought it was called spaghetti corner. Spaghetti junction. Yeah.
[05:23.580 -> 05:26.500] No, yeah. We obviously know it isn't a chicane,
[05:26.500 -> 05:27.520] a chicane, a chicane,
[05:27.520 -> 05:28.780] but we don't know exactly what they are.
[05:28.780 -> 05:30.160] So we're just messing around with it.
[05:30.160 -> 05:31.840] We just playing, we just playing.
[05:31.840 -> 05:33.020] I think those people who have been here
[05:33.020 -> 05:34.840] from the beginning have learned that.
[05:34.840 -> 05:36.220] We're very aware now as well,
[05:36.220 -> 05:38.280] from the messages you guys sent us on Instagram.
[05:38.280 -> 05:40.320] We do have viewers from all over the world,
[05:40.320 -> 05:43.220] like every single little country and everywhere.
[05:43.220 -> 05:44.380] Even in Sri Lanka.
[05:44.380 -> 05:45.800] Everywhere, everywhere. Honestly, I look through the locations, Like every single little country everywhere even in Sri Lanka everywhere
[05:50.280 -> 05:51.400] Everywhere honestly, I look through the locations. There's like one person in like Estonia
[05:57.280 -> 05:57.920] There's like it's just every country. So he gets unbelievable to think we're sat in this room in our middle flat
[06:00.320 -> 06:01.280] In the middle room, it doesn't say how many companies
[06:04.240 -> 06:05.760] How many countries there's a lot? I don't know how many. We were just watching
[06:05.760 -> 06:10.000] a movie called The Founder, which if anyone hasn't seen it, it's about how McDonald's
[06:10.000 -> 06:14.000] started and they are in like over a hundred countries, which doesn't sound like a lot,
[06:14.000 -> 06:17.960] but it actually is loads. Wait, yeah, but there's only like 122 countries in the world
[06:17.960 -> 06:26.440] or something. Right. Oh my God. Imagine there's like 7,000 countries. No, I think it's like a hundred and forty countries in the world
[06:27.880 -> 06:29.880] Let's not start talking
[06:30.160 -> 06:32.160] Fucking formula one stop
[06:32.320 -> 06:35.980] So J we are two races in now soon to be a third
[06:36.620 -> 06:42.280] By the way, this weekend has been sad like I was so in the in the swing of things
[06:42.400 -> 06:47.160] Like the race the race first time we've had withdrawal symptoms from Formula 1.
[06:47.160 -> 06:48.080] I know, it's crazy.
[06:48.080 -> 06:49.000] And it's not nice.
[06:49.000 -> 06:50.360] It's not nice at all.
[06:50.360 -> 06:52.080] But yeah, we got Australia coming up.
[06:52.080 -> 06:54.640] Like I said, Thursday's episode will be all the predictions
[06:54.640 -> 06:56.000] and stuff more about Australia.
[06:56.000 -> 06:59.120] We don't wanna repeat ourselves and do everything twice.
[06:59.120 -> 07:00.640] We wanna get back into the swing of things
[07:00.640 -> 07:03.040] of the Thursday before race, Sunday after race.
[07:03.040 -> 07:03.860] Absolutely.
[07:03.860 -> 07:07.000] I think another good thing as well would be to dive into like a little bit of F1 history.
[07:07.000 -> 07:08.000] Because... We'd love to.
[07:08.000 -> 07:12.000] I feel like that's something that, you know, even if you've been following the sport for a couple of years or whatever,
[07:12.000 -> 07:15.000] you still might not know what was happening 34 years ago.
[07:15.000 -> 07:23.000] Maybe you do, but again, we're learning, so you can come with us on the journey and talk a little bit of F1 history.
[07:23.000 -> 07:26.440] I'd love to learn a little bit of F1 history because whenever people send stuff in
[07:26.440 -> 07:27.920] or we get stuff wrong,
[07:27.920 -> 07:30.320] if we just did a little bit of research,
[07:30.320 -> 07:33.380] just learned a little bit more back before the current grid,
[07:33.380 -> 07:34.840] I think a lot more would make sense.
[07:34.840 -> 07:36.800] What we could do is I mean,
[07:36.800 -> 07:38.960] so you could cover like from like the 90s
[07:38.960 -> 07:40.120] into like the 2000s
[07:40.120 -> 07:41.880] and I could do like the 70s and 80s
[07:41.880 -> 07:44.440] and then we both bring some cool information
[07:44.440 -> 07:45.280] and share it with each other.
[07:45.280 -> 07:49.040] We have got that's a good idea, but that does remind me of the really cool other idea we had,
[07:49.040 -> 07:51.120] you know about the Latifi thing, we won't give it away yet,
[07:51.120 -> 07:55.040] but we also got another really cool idea for a series. So we're gonna try loads of different stuff.
[07:55.520 -> 07:59.120] I've been made aware that most people who do podcasts do like one a week
[07:59.760 -> 08:04.400] and then they like end their season and they do like a certain amount of episodes,
[08:04.400 -> 08:08.080] but we have no plan to stop doing Tour Week.
[08:08.080 -> 08:09.080] Just sit back, enjoy.
[08:09.080 -> 08:10.960] If you miss an episode, it doesn't matter.
[08:10.960 -> 08:13.280] You can come back for the next race weekend.
[08:13.280 -> 08:15.160] It's just exciting we're doing Tour Week.
[08:15.160 -> 08:17.280] It keeps us in the loop and keeps us learning.
[08:17.280 -> 08:18.280] Definitely.
[08:18.280 -> 08:20.720] And yeah, like we've said, we're going to have some really cool guests coming on.
[08:20.720 -> 08:21.880] We've already had some cool guests.
[08:21.880 -> 08:23.620] We're going to have some more.
[08:23.620 -> 08:29.760] And it's going to be an exciting year. But why don't we take a look, Jake, at the current
[08:29.760 -> 08:34.080] standings. I know we're only two races in, but let's just see what's going on. If you
[08:34.080 -> 08:39.120] want to hit Instagram and pull up our predictions of what we thought the standings would look
[08:39.120 -> 08:40.120] like at the end of this year.
[08:40.120 -> 08:41.640] Yeah, we've all done absolutely shocking.
[08:41.640 -> 08:43.360] I know we're a long way off.
[08:43.360 -> 08:48.900] We've absolutely blown it. No one could have called it though. No one would have expected every Mercedes car on the grid
[08:49.500 -> 08:56.000] Mercedes-powered car to be so far behind no, so we're only two races in so I'm not expecting mine to be anywhere near
[08:56.000 -> 08:57.000] What's going on at the moment?
[08:57.000 -> 09:02.580] Did predict a dominant Ferrari but you predicted a more dominant in Hamilton because you went Hamilton to win the whole thing
[09:02.760 -> 09:07.280] Well, if I read out the current standings should we sort of mark it against our predictions?
[09:07.280 -> 09:08.640] We won't be able to do that mate.
[09:08.640 -> 09:09.640] Why?
[09:09.640 -> 09:10.640] Because Vettel hasn't even raced.
[09:10.640 -> 09:15.440] Like, none of these, literally barely any of these people are in it.
[09:15.440 -> 09:16.440] What is that?
[09:16.440 -> 09:17.440] Is that our...
[09:17.440 -> 09:18.440] Oh that's our only top ten.
[09:18.440 -> 09:21.040] The final standings top ten and like barely any of the ones we've got are even in it.
[09:21.040 -> 09:22.040] Let me take a look.
[09:22.040 -> 09:23.040] It's really bad.
[09:23.040 -> 09:24.040] Not that bad.
[09:24.040 -> 09:26.120] Yeah yours is alright. You went Ferrari high. we've got let me take a look it's really bad
[09:31.200 -> 09:35.680] not that bad yeah yours is alright you went Ferrari higher but you went Hamilton to win. Verstappen in third yeah got him. Leclerc I had second but he's
[09:35.680 -> 09:40.000] currently in first. Hamilton's down in fifth I had him first. Norris in fourth
[09:40.000 -> 09:46.280] Norris is currently tenth. Sainz 5th. Where's Norris now?
[09:46.280 -> 09:47.280] Yeah, maybe we stop doing this.
[09:47.280 -> 09:49.280] Yeah, we need to do it later on in the season.
[09:49.280 -> 09:51.280] There hasn't been enough races.
[09:51.280 -> 09:54.280] We can't go for our overall final predictions yet.
[09:54.280 -> 09:56.280] Well, I'd say mine's closer than yours.
[09:56.280 -> 09:58.280] Yeah, probably. Actually, no, completely wrong.
[09:58.280 -> 10:00.280] Because Verstappen's going to win.
[10:00.280 -> 10:02.280] Yeah, you know what? My dad agrees with you on that.
[10:02.280 -> 10:07.520] I think Red Bull is so far ahead in the league. Do you know my dad turned around to me and said the other day on the phone, he says,
[10:07.520 -> 10:10.520] I think Verstappen's gonna be like the next Schumacher.
[10:10.520 -> 10:12.520] I wouldn't put it past him.
[10:12.520 -> 10:20.760] I've said Lewis Hamilton wanted the eighth world title probably just as much as Verstappen
[10:20.760 -> 10:25.840] wanted his first because for Lewis that was you are the best driver of all time
[10:25.880 -> 10:28.100] So Max was going up against the best
[10:28.280 -> 10:34.640] Lewis Hamilton there was the end of our season the best he's ever been some people said like the most incredible driving from him and
[10:35.720 -> 10:41.220] Max still come out on top for me when you look at that and a young driver. I think he's gonna be serious
[10:41.220 -> 10:44.840] I think he'll be really serious. I think he's definitely neat and is that neat?
[10:41.440 -> 10:43.320] I think he's going to be serious. I think he'll be really serious.
[10:43.320 -> 10:45.320] I think he's definitely neat and is neat.
[10:46.600 -> 10:48.120] Can't talk.
[10:48.120 -> 10:49.040] Lot of beers, right?
[10:49.040 -> 10:50.560] Trying to figure out how to move my lips.
[10:50.560 -> 10:51.600] Few beers, few Jager bombs.
[10:51.600 -> 10:52.920] What do you drink last night?
[10:52.920 -> 10:53.880] Gins.
[10:53.880 -> 10:55.400] Too much.
[10:55.400 -> 11:00.400] I think Verstappen, he's neatened his act up a little bit.
[11:00.720 -> 11:02.120] Can I give a round of applause for that?
[11:02.120 -> 11:03.960] I can't tell you how I managed to say that.
[11:03.960 -> 11:05.000] Nice English. Neatened his act up a little bit. He used get a round of applause for that? I can't say that. Nice English!
[11:05.000 -> 11:14.000] Neyton does act up a little bit. He used to be courageous, I think, and he still is, but now I think he just goes for gaps which are actually there rather than imaginary gaps.
[11:14.000 -> 11:26.280] He's learning, and at the end of the day, he was in a car last season that, in my opinion, was nowhere near as quick as a Mercedes. Obviously, they were quicker out of Bull but he did that you when you have got a car that isn't as quick
[11:26.280 -> 11:30.400] you have to take them chances it's as simple as that if Mercedes are 1-2 and
[11:30.400 -> 11:33.520] they're just working to win constructors it's fine if you're in a Red Bull that's
[11:33.520 -> 11:37.960] slower you have to take the chances to get round them anyway it's always gonna
[11:37.960 -> 11:41.280] happen. You have to hit that turbo button underneath the seat. You have to hit the turbo button it's gonna
[11:41.280 -> 11:44.640] happen this season you're gonna see the same battle with Leclerc it will be
[11:44.640 -> 11:49.160] amazing if we see like five six years of a battle with like I don't know who might be there
[11:49.160 -> 11:53.500] McLaren might come through Norris might be involved. Hmm. You might have Russell there
[11:53.500 -> 11:58.320] How much might go you could have five six people every race where you don't know who's gonna win, which would be crazy
[11:58.320 -> 11:59.440] That's what we want. That's what we want
[11:59.440 -> 12:05.600] I mean, we're already seeing that already Ferrari currently at the top of the constructors as we know Mercedes Red Bull
[12:06.040 -> 12:09.060] That's kind of where you would what you would picture in the top three
[12:09.060 -> 12:13.700] Maybe not in that order, but you would expect Ferrari Mercedes Red Bull. You'd maybe hope to see
[12:14.400 -> 12:20.120] McLaren up there, but they're not but it gets really interesting when Alpine are in fourth and Haas are in fifth
[12:20.120 -> 12:23.800] Yeah, I predicted Haas will finish sixth as constructor
[12:23.920 -> 12:28.400] So I'm fine with that for now any higher and I'm absolutely buzzing with that.
[12:28.400 -> 12:30.120] Magnusson, what a signing.
[12:30.120 -> 12:32.160] That is signing of the season.
[12:32.160 -> 12:33.800] That is like dream stuff.
[12:33.800 -> 12:39.160] You bring someone in and there must have been a bit of Gunther and a bit of Haas that was
[12:39.160 -> 12:40.160] worried.
[12:40.160 -> 12:44.000] Like, obviously they were bringing back a driver they knew could handle himself, but
[12:44.000 -> 12:47.800] they couldn't be 100% sure they were bringing back a driver that was gonna go get them points.
[12:47.800 -> 12:50.300] And the first two races, he's gone and got points.
[12:50.300 -> 12:56.000] When they didn't get points all of last season, everything they wanted, he has brought to the team.
[12:56.000 -> 12:59.500] He's done really well. It'd be nice to see a little bit more from Schumacher.
[12:59.500 -> 13:03.400] Yeah, well, he was unlucky last week. Devastating crash. Glad he's alright.
[13:03.400 -> 13:08.880] Also, it's gonna be nice to see some more of Sebastian Vettel because we haven't seen him once this no it's been Hulkenberg
[13:08.880 -> 13:13.940] I'm excited to see Vettel back in the Aston Martin. They've invested a lot this weekend in Australia. Yep. I want to see what the
[13:14.980 -> 13:20.760] Aston Martins got I definitely want to see what I wonder how big the Australian Grand Prix is I wonder where
[13:21.540 -> 13:25.360] Formula one is biggest because I I didn't realize that Silverstone
[13:25.360 -> 13:27.040] is like the biggest in the world.
[13:27.040 -> 13:28.560] So that's like the main hub.
[13:28.560 -> 13:31.640] Apparently 350,000 people go to Silverstone.
[13:31.640 -> 13:32.560] Wow, that's a lot of people.
[13:32.560 -> 13:35.240] Yeah, it's the biggest F1 in the world.
[13:35.240 -> 13:38.840] I think Britain is kind of the home to motoring anyway.
[13:38.840 -> 13:40.520] Don't quote me on that, but I'm pretty sure
[13:40.520 -> 13:43.160] like motorsports and motoring is so big.
[13:43.160 -> 13:44.520] I thought it was anyway.
[13:44.520 -> 13:47.380] But I'd say Europe probably for Formula One.
[13:47.380 -> 13:50.180] However, there has been a massive influx of fans
[13:50.180 -> 13:53.220] in the USA through whatever means,
[13:53.220 -> 13:54.060] Drive to Survive or whatever else.
[13:54.060 -> 13:56.180] Drive to Survive did absolute wonders for it.
[13:56.180 -> 13:57.860] And then you've got Vegas.
[13:57.860 -> 13:58.700] Well, there you go.
[13:58.700 -> 13:59.540] Let's talk Vegas.
[13:59.540 -> 14:00.380] I mean, that is the reason why.
[14:00.380 -> 14:01.340] That's crazy.
[14:01.340 -> 14:02.160] It is crazy.
[14:02.160 -> 14:10.720] It's the third track now that's gonna be in America next next year Miami which is new this year I believe you'll have Vegas
[14:10.720 -> 14:14.600] and you have circuit of the Americas. It's mad because they got South America
[14:14.600 -> 14:20.480] North America Canada there's loads of tracks over that way now. Yeah yeah yeah
[14:20.480 -> 14:24.640] because there is in there South North Canada. Imagine if like Scotland got one
[14:24.640 -> 14:25.420] well you know what Scotland would probably be a fucking blinding place for Yeah, because there is in there South North Canada. You imagine if I Scotland go on well
[14:25.440 -> 14:32.080] You know what Scotland will probably be a fucking blinding place for a Formula One truck the hills and that can you imagine that?
[14:32.200 -> 14:36.600] We no one would know this and me and Jake went to Scotland last year. I am
[14:37.160 -> 14:40.520] Just past my dog. Oh my tell him this story for it, right?
[14:40.520 -> 14:44.520] This guy couldn't drive and we were he owed us all so many lifts
[14:45.000 -> 14:45.560] And then he passed his driving test so I decided to repay you Right, this guy couldn't drive and he owed us so many lifts.
[14:47.160 -> 14:49.760] And then he passed his driving test. So I decided to repay you.
[14:49.760 -> 14:50.760] By?
[14:50.760 -> 14:51.600] Driving to Scotland.
[14:51.600 -> 14:54.320] In the first week he'd passed his test.
[14:54.320 -> 14:58.000] It took us all day, two days to get there, we stopped.
[14:58.000 -> 15:00.080] And then we just, when we drove back,
[15:00.080 -> 15:01.440] well, we didn't just get there and drive back,
[15:01.440 -> 15:02.960] we did stay there for a few days.
[15:02.960 -> 15:05.080] Yeah, it was a really fun trip.
[15:05.080 -> 15:09.120] And I used up like half of my yearly mileage on that trip.
[15:09.120 -> 15:10.320] When you put your insurance in.
[15:10.320 -> 15:11.280] How many miles?
[15:11.280 -> 15:12.540] Don't say that, Ollie.
[15:12.540 -> 15:14.120] I'm probably not insured anymore.
[15:14.120 -> 15:17.000] But at least anyone listening knows that I'm riding dirty.
[15:17.000 -> 15:18.120] And like I said,
[15:18.120 -> 15:21.440] put me in a Formula One car and I'm Speedy Gonzales.
[15:21.440 -> 15:23.440] But yeah, Scotland was great.
[15:23.440 -> 15:29.360] And definitely want to do some more trips like that maybe you could have Grand Prix's in we've got Sweden
[15:29.360 -> 15:34.400] Ireland Norway India Denmark South Africa and Switzerland who haven't got
[15:34.400 -> 15:38.280] races they haven't got races but I'm gonna shout them out because there's
[15:38.280 -> 15:42.480] some of our highest listened countries shoutouts to those of you there let's
[15:42.480 -> 15:48.000] get you a race do you know where it would be really cool to have a race? It is in Mumbai.
[15:48.000 -> 15:48.800] Oh wow.
[15:48.800 -> 15:50.300] That would be amazing.
[15:50.300 -> 15:53.600] That would be amazing. There'll definitely be more. It's gonna change, isn't it?
[15:53.600 -> 15:55.400] There's gonna be certain tracks that are gonna go.
[15:55.400 -> 15:58.900] I haven't seen any highlights of the Vegas race before.
[15:58.900 -> 16:02.200] I wonder if it's going to be the track similar to what they had ages ago.
[16:02.200 -> 16:03.600] It's naturally not, no.
[16:03.600 -> 16:06.400] So, I mean, from researching a little bit,
[16:06.400 -> 16:09.800] Formula One first started in Vegas in 1981,
[16:09.800 -> 16:11.840] but they only raced there for two years.
[16:11.840 -> 16:13.240] Why did they stop?
[16:13.240 -> 16:14.980] I think the track, from what I read,
[16:14.980 -> 16:16.800] was essentially like in the car park
[16:16.800 -> 16:18.600] of fucking Caesar's Palace.
[16:18.600 -> 16:19.440] Oh, really?
[16:19.440 -> 16:20.400] Yeah.
[16:20.400 -> 16:24.120] And I think I'm quoting Will Buxton here, actually.
[16:24.120 -> 16:26.640] It was quite a slippery track and quite a small track
[16:26.640 -> 16:30.720] and I guess it just didn't live up to the expectation
[16:30.720 -> 16:32.040] of what Formula One is about,
[16:32.040 -> 16:35.080] sort of this glamorous sort of sport and lifestyle.
[16:35.080 -> 16:37.440] And it was, I guess for like lack of words,
[16:37.440 -> 16:40.040] bit of a shit track, shitty track.
[16:40.040 -> 16:41.800] And when you think of Vegas,
[16:41.800 -> 16:43.600] when what is the first thing that you think of
[16:43.600 -> 16:44.720] when you think of Vegas?
[16:44.720 -> 16:47.160] I don't know, like bright lights, big events.
[16:47.160 -> 16:48.000] Big events.
[16:48.000 -> 16:49.480] Like, you know, it's the best of the best.
[16:49.480 -> 16:51.440] They want to put on the best of the best, don't they?
[16:51.440 -> 16:53.080] Crazy shit going on, absolutely.
[16:53.080 -> 16:55.560] I definitely think this rerun, going back there,
[16:55.560 -> 16:58.160] they wouldn't be going back there without a crazy plan.
[16:58.160 -> 16:59.440] Like, I think this would be amazing.
[16:59.440 -> 17:00.680] Well, have you seen the track?
[17:00.680 -> 17:01.520] No.
[17:01.520 -> 17:02.360] Yeah, it's sick.
[17:02.360 -> 17:03.600] But I know there's that massive straight,
[17:03.600 -> 17:05.040] like an unbelievably
[17:05.040 -> 17:08.440] long straight down the promenade, isn't it? Down the strip, yeah. Yeah, unbelievable,
[17:08.440 -> 17:11.600] that's gonna be incredible. I just know that they'll go big, you know, everything is
[17:11.600 -> 17:14.880] getting bigger, everything is getting better, it's gonna be crazy and hopefully
[17:14.880 -> 17:15.880] we can get some tickets.
[17:17.880 -> 17:21.960] But I did also interestingly see, because there's no Grand Prix in Germany, is there?
[17:21.960 -> 17:27.500] But they're looking, Hockenheim, I believe, it's a rumor going on at the moment,
[17:27.500 -> 17:34.000] are looking to take the spare Grand Prix pre-sport for this season, in one of their open places.
[17:34.000 -> 17:36.500] So, because obviously we're not racing in Russia anymore.
[17:36.500 -> 17:41.000] So Hockenheim have, I think, going for it. So we could end up in Germany.
[17:41.000 -> 17:44.500] Don't quote me on that, it could be a terrible article, but I saw it online,
[17:44.500 -> 17:45.880] and it said it was a rumored thing
[17:45.880 -> 17:47.560] so I thought, you know, I'd let people know
[17:47.560 -> 17:49.160] what's going on in the rumored world.
[17:49.160 -> 17:50.840] That's cool, no I like that, that'd be really cool.
[17:50.840 -> 17:52.000] That'd be cool because if there's a race in Germany
[17:52.000 -> 17:53.940] we can get to Germany easily as well.
[17:53.940 -> 17:54.780] Easily.
[17:54.780 -> 17:56.080] Yeah, really easily.
[17:56.080 -> 17:57.840] A lot of the races are sort of like
[17:59.000 -> 18:00.880] North Western Europe I guess you'd call it.
[18:00.880 -> 18:03.440] So like this is like a fucking little car journey
[18:03.440 -> 18:04.360] between all these tracks.
[18:04.360 -> 18:10.400] Yeah. And I know there are people out there and then possibly people listening who you are the kind of people who will just go to
[18:10.600 -> 18:15.960] Every single race in Europe and just do a whole oh my god if we have anyone listening that goes every race
[18:15.960 -> 18:20.940] I'm gonna be so bloody jealous just traveling to every single race a little motorhome or something like that
[18:20.940 -> 18:26.080] We need a little caravan that's around there. They need to do a race in London.
[18:26.080 -> 18:30.360] Imagine round Canary Wharf. I thought they are. They've looked at it. I've seen the plans
[18:30.360 -> 18:34.440] and it's been spoken about. I don't know if it ever happened but Canary Wharf would be
[18:34.440 -> 18:41.680] amazing for it. Yeah well we live in London. We live in East London and they are, you probably
[18:41.680 -> 18:46.440] know more about this than me, but don't they do Formula E like around the XL?
[18:46.440 -> 18:48.720] The Formula E is literally outside our front door.
[18:48.720 -> 18:50.560] So we live close to the XL.
[18:50.560 -> 18:51.400] Don't disclose too much.
[18:51.400 -> 18:55.360] We live close to the XL and when we go in the XL,
[18:55.360 -> 18:58.600] if we go in there, there's literally a Formula E car
[18:58.600 -> 19:01.440] on the right hand side hanging like full size.
[19:01.440 -> 19:02.280] And I walked in there the other day.
[19:02.280 -> 19:03.120] I'm yet to see this.
[19:03.120 -> 19:06.240] And I saw it and I was like oh my god like it's
[19:06.240 -> 19:11.440] right there it looks amazing and I went over to it and had a look at it and we'd seen the Red Bull
[19:11.440 -> 19:15.360] one at the Red Bull event so that was the first one I saw but I saw this one I was fascinated
[19:15.360 -> 19:19.600] but yeah it's literally at the Excel it could not be closer to us so hopefully we can go and
[19:19.600 -> 19:25.960] watch that it's like a track they build around the Excel around the do docks behind it, and it's quite a big space.
[19:25.960 -> 19:27.040] I don't know if it's a good race.
[19:27.040 -> 19:29.720] I've never seen it before, but we'll watch it this year.
[19:29.720 -> 19:32.960] I can't imagine the cars are particularly loud.
[19:32.960 -> 19:34.320] Nah, I don't reckon they are.
[19:34.320 -> 19:37.360] I'm really excited to go though to the Norma F1
[19:37.360 -> 19:39.280] and just witness what Will said.
[19:39.280 -> 19:41.160] He said that they all smell different than that.
[19:41.160 -> 19:42.400] Like, I can't imagine that.
[19:42.400 -> 19:43.920] I'd never even thought about like
[19:43.920 -> 19:45.220] what a Formula One car
[19:45.220 -> 19:46.060] would smell like.
[19:46.060 -> 19:48.360] And then he was like, some smell like nail varnish.
[19:48.360 -> 19:49.960] Some smell like, I was like, what?
[19:49.960 -> 19:51.160] How do they smell different?
[19:51.160 -> 19:54.640] The fuel, I guess, compared to what they used to use.
[19:54.640 -> 19:57.280] Cause yeah, I think we mentioned this before.
[19:57.280 -> 19:58.400] We're going to Goodwood Festival
[19:58.400 -> 20:00.440] and they're going to have the V10.
[20:00.440 -> 20:03.120] This weekend, we're going to a special thing this weekend,
[20:03.120 -> 20:04.760] the Goodwood Festival, if anyone's going.
[20:04.760 -> 20:08.460] I have no idea what it is. It's a pre-members meetup we're just
[20:08.460 -> 20:13.320] we're coming along as guests for a very close friend of ours who is an amazing
[20:13.320 -> 20:19.420] man and yeah we're gonna be there so if anyone is at the pre Goodwood meet up
[20:19.420 -> 20:29.440] this weekend April 9th I think it is is, come say hello. And quiz us. Come at us. Come straight over with a question that we should know the answer to.
[20:30.560 -> 20:36.000] Don't do that. And I'm sure we'll be at the actual Goodwood event as well in June or July,
[20:36.000 -> 20:41.840] whenever that is. So yeah, come if you're there, come say hello. But I do have some more news,
[20:41.840 -> 20:47.120] Jake. There's been an investigation into why Alonzo's car was
[20:47.120 -> 20:53.240] retired in Saudi Arabia last last weekend why well because they had to
[20:53.240 -> 20:56.680] retire the car because something went wrong right yeah car overheated it was a
[20:56.680 -> 21:03.080] water pump failure okay which doesn't initially sound like something wrong
[21:03.080 -> 21:09.480] with the engine but again through doing some research I found out that essentially the water pump is like
[21:09.480 -> 21:15.200] integrated into the engine and it just disintegrated and fell into the engine
[21:15.200 -> 21:19.600] so the oil wasn't getting cooled and that's what overheated it. So why has
[21:19.600 -> 21:29.040] there been an investigation? By who? Well by Alpine just just oh just not by like the FIA Alpine have done an in-house investigation
[21:29.040 -> 21:33.680] to find out what happened find out what happened and yeah because I think because the the water
[21:33.680 -> 21:39.080] pump fell into the engine it means they have to replace the whole engine oh no and you
[21:39.080 -> 21:43.320] only get a certain amount of season you get three a season before you get penalized and
[21:43.320 -> 21:47.200] he had already put a new one in no so he'll be two in in three races.
[21:47.200 -> 21:49.560] So he's already, no, this is gonna be his third engine.
[21:49.680 -> 21:51.680] What? He wouldn't have put three in.
[21:51.680 -> 21:55.080] No, so he started on one obviously, replaced it for Saudi Arabia.
[21:55.080 -> 21:57.200] Oh my god, so he won't be able to engine swap after this.
[21:57.200 -> 22:01.000] So after this, yeah, he'll get, I believe it's a five place grid penalty.
[22:01.000 -> 22:04.600] Oh mate, that's chaos. That's chaos for a long time. I didn't know that.
[22:04.600 -> 22:06.040] Is that, I don't know if that's chaos. That's chaos for a long time. I didn't know that. Is that,
[22:06.040 -> 22:10.920] I don't know if that's chaos, I mean how long does an engine last? Yeah but. I suppose if
[22:10.920 -> 22:14.600] we're only two races in. Well yeah, you don't want to be using all your engines by the third
[22:14.600 -> 22:20.660] race. No. Like because every time you replace it's going to be back at the grid. Wow. Crazy.
[22:20.660 -> 22:25.080] I didn't know that. Wow. Statman Fab, bringing us things we did not know.
[22:25.080 -> 22:26.920] I just thought I'd mix it up a little bit.
[22:26.920 -> 22:28.240] I like that, I like that.
[22:28.240 -> 22:31.120] I wanna be able to bring a little bit of knowledge.
[22:31.120 -> 22:32.840] A little bit of spice.
[22:32.840 -> 22:35.400] A little bit of knowledge to the podcast.
[22:35.400 -> 22:37.600] People need it.
[22:37.600 -> 22:41.280] On a Monday morning, you need to be taught something new.
[22:41.280 -> 22:43.480] Shouting out to you, John.
[22:43.480 -> 22:45.360] I'm just hoping there's a random person called John. John?
[22:45.360 -> 22:46.320] Let's get in and listen to that.
[22:46.320 -> 22:47.920] I mean, oh my god, he's talking a bit.
[22:47.920 -> 22:50.160] John, if you're listening, you are a legend.
[22:50.160 -> 22:51.120] My favourite message I got is-
[22:51.120 -> 22:52.240] Don't stop what you're doing.
[22:53.040 -> 22:54.000] Unless you're a murderer.
[22:55.440 -> 22:56.800] Stop that immediately.
[22:56.800 -> 23:00.160] My favourite messages I saw was someone said they listened to the game.
[23:00.160 -> 23:02.400] No, they listened to the podcast whilst playing the F1 game.
[23:02.400 -> 23:04.480] And someone else said they listened to the podcast while
[23:05.100 -> 23:08.300] doing their post round, their postmanman for that's pretty cool as well
[23:08.300 -> 23:10.480] Who said that have you got just people on Instagram?
[23:10.480 -> 23:12.680] I couldn't remember a name shout out to those people
[23:12.720 -> 23:15.120] But yeah, send us a message on instagram at pit stop
[23:15.120 -> 23:19.240] Let us know when you listen to it. Why you listen to it where you listen to it and what we can change
[23:19.720 -> 23:21.720] We just can't change a house
[23:21.280 -> 23:27.520] We just can't change a host.
[23:35.560 -> 23:35.960] So at the end of the last episode, we said, please do message us on Instagram and tell us, you know, a little bit about yourselves, why you listen to the podcast.
[23:41.520 -> 23:43.480] And we wanted to go through some of the questions you guys have sent in to involve you guys and hopefully learn a bit more about us. And we can just talk all things Formula One.
[23:43.200 -> 23:47.760] hopefully you learned a bit more about us and we can just talk all things Formula One. I'm gonna start straight off by saying Karolina from Estonia has said
[23:47.760 -> 23:51.200] have you thought about inviting fans from across the world to be on your
[23:51.200 -> 23:55.040] podcast? And the reason I wanted to bring that up is because one of the main
[23:55.040 -> 24:00.040] things we want to do is content with fans. Like if we go to the races and we
[24:00.040 -> 24:03.760] want to be doing interviews like outside the races so if we ever tell you we're
[24:03.760 -> 24:06.120] going to a race look for us outside because we want to be doing interviews like outside the races. So if we ever tell you we're going to a race, look for us outside.
[24:06.120 -> 24:09.800] Because we want to be filming stuff for YouTube, doing loads of stuff.
[24:09.800 -> 24:12.360] But we could definitely get some guests on, some fans on.
[24:12.360 -> 24:15.760] There'd be loads of ways we could incorporate our fans from around the world.
[24:15.760 -> 24:17.200] Yeah, even if they're just calling in.
[24:17.200 -> 24:18.640] Well, that's what I thought would be good.
[24:18.640 -> 24:22.160] I also thought it'd be good, like, getting people to send in like audio notes or questions.
[24:22.160 -> 24:23.840] I was literally just thinking that.
[24:23.840 -> 24:26.180] And then we could just play them out and answer them, right?
[24:26.180 -> 24:28.780] If you guys want us to do that, send us a message and let us know.
[24:28.780 -> 24:31.820] I thought that would be a really cool idea.
[24:31.820 -> 24:33.420] It would just be great to get everyone on.
[24:33.420 -> 24:36.860] Yeah, I tell you what, if you're going to send a voice note with a question,
[24:36.860 -> 24:38.560] the only thing is that we can't proof check them.
[24:38.560 -> 24:41.620] I suppose we can cut the podcast afterwards in case someone says anything.
[24:41.620 -> 24:43.660] True, we'll have to figure that out.
[24:43.660 -> 24:45.680] But yeah, if you're gonna send us a voice note
[24:45.680 -> 24:48.400] with a question, then just follow it up afterwards
[24:48.400 -> 24:51.200] with just like literally the words,
[24:51.200 -> 24:52.560] voice note for podcast.
[24:52.560 -> 24:53.960] Yeah, so we won't open it.
[24:53.960 -> 24:56.280] We can go through them and then we can just pop them up
[24:56.280 -> 25:01.040] on the podcast and if they're friendly, R-rated,
[25:01.040 -> 25:03.560] non-explicit or whatever, we'll play them.
[25:03.560 -> 25:05.560] I also completely forgot to say,
[25:05.560 -> 25:09.760] fucking Pier Gasly commented on our post.
[25:09.760 -> 25:12.700] Unbelievable, we did a post on Pitstop,
[25:13.560 -> 25:16.680] like a collab post with a football page, my football page,
[25:16.680 -> 25:18.800] and then Gasly commented on it.
[25:18.800 -> 25:20.040] It was like an April Fools prank.
[25:20.040 -> 25:21.080] What was it?
[25:21.080 -> 25:24.840] It was Kevin De Bruyne from Man City in an Alphatory kit,
[25:24.840 -> 25:27.000] and it said that he'd signed for Alphatory
[25:27.000 -> 25:34.340] as an April Fools and Pia Gasly commented, welcome Kevin. That's amazing. I was like that is so sick
[25:34.800 -> 25:37.760] Unbelievably sick, but that brings me on to who would be your dream
[25:38.480 -> 25:43.440] Podcast guest this was asked more than any other question when I asked out for questions
[25:43.600 -> 25:46.240] Everyone wants to know now who would be our dream guest.
[25:46.240 -> 25:46.960] Frank Bruno.
[25:47.760 -> 25:48.880] Wow, interesting.
[25:48.880 -> 25:51.440] You've chose someone who's not a Formula One driver.
[25:52.320 -> 25:54.400] Nah, if I was to pick someone in the Formula One.
[25:54.400 -> 25:55.120] No, I like that.
[25:55.120 -> 25:56.960] I like to, why would you pick Frank Bruno?
[25:57.520 -> 25:59.760] I would like, I would like different people as well.
[25:59.760 -> 26:01.760] You never know, Frank Bruno might like Formula One.
[26:01.760 -> 26:04.240] I'd just love to hear his voice come through.
[26:04.240 -> 26:07.680] Oh, that would be sick to be fair, wouldn't it?
[26:07.680 -> 26:08.520] It'd be amazing.
[26:08.520 -> 26:10.640] I think he's a great guy.
[26:10.640 -> 26:12.480] One of my favorite boxers of all time, so.
[26:12.480 -> 26:13.320] Really?
[26:13.320 -> 26:14.140] Yeah, yeah.
[26:14.140 -> 26:15.720] But if it had to be someone from the F1,
[26:15.720 -> 26:18.080] I'd actually, it depends,
[26:18.080 -> 26:18.920] because you could pick someone
[26:18.920 -> 26:20.400] who could be really insightful,
[26:20.400 -> 26:22.880] and I can picture certain people.
[26:22.880 -> 26:25.480] If we sat down with like Toto Wolf
[26:25.480 -> 26:28.400] I feel like we would just be in silence for most of it
[26:28.400 -> 26:35.300] Yeah, it would just be listening to him and taking it all in whereas if you had someone like really fun like Daniel Riccardo
[26:35.300 -> 26:37.260] It could be a really fun
[26:37.260 -> 26:40.140] Podcast so Danny Rick would be an amazing guest
[26:40.140 -> 26:46.000] I'd absolutely love to get him on make it happen someone, someone listening. Send him, comment on every single one
[26:46.000 -> 26:48.080] of his Instagram photos and go wild.
[26:48.080 -> 26:50.440] Ricky, come on the pod.
[26:50.440 -> 26:53.720] Laura has said, who would be a better F1 driver,
[26:53.720 -> 26:55.480] Jake or Fab?
[26:55.480 -> 27:00.000] If we both got in the Ferraris tomorrow, this season,
[27:00.000 -> 27:02.040] and we had to go and do a hot lap.
[27:02.040 -> 27:02.880] Me.
[27:02.880 -> 27:04.120] I don't know.
[27:04.120 -> 27:05.360] Yeah, I do believe that.
[27:05.360 -> 27:06.760] He's a terrible driver.
[27:06.760 -> 27:08.440] He's got no idea.
[27:08.440 -> 27:12.720] However, I will say that this is how I picture it going.
[27:12.720 -> 27:15.080] So like, let's say for like some crazy reason,
[27:15.080 -> 27:16.760] like both Ferrari drivers are out,
[27:16.760 -> 27:18.360] we're the next ones called up
[27:18.360 -> 27:19.840] and we're racing against the rest of the grid.
[27:19.840 -> 27:21.760] What we're just there doing a press day or something.
[27:21.760 -> 27:22.600] And now I know where they're like,
[27:22.600 -> 27:24.400] oh no, both Ferrari drivers can't drive.
[27:24.400 -> 27:25.040] Who are we we gonna get?
[27:25.040 -> 27:26.040] The pit stop boys.
[27:26.040 -> 27:30.240] We're just standing on the balcony above the pits with a cocktail in our hands and
[27:30.240 -> 27:34.040] Benotto looks up, sees us and just goes, them.
[27:34.040 -> 27:35.040] Yeah we need them.
[27:35.040 -> 27:36.040] They come up, grab us, suit us, helmet us.
[27:36.040 -> 27:40.680] If that happened, I do truly, because you're a very competitive person so I do truly believe
[27:40.680 -> 27:43.600] that you would actually, you know, probably do well.
[27:43.600 -> 27:45.120] I'd probably kill myself.
[27:47.680 -> 27:51.120] There is no chance that either of us could drive a Formula One car we know this we're not deluded
[27:51.120 -> 27:55.680] but hypothetically speaking Jake would do well because he's competitive but I know that you lack
[27:55.680 -> 28:01.040] the longevity because every time we've played that game sometimes you get a you get a faster
[28:01.040 -> 28:06.000] qualifying. In a game mate I get bored but I ain't But if I'm driving a car that if I crash it, I die.
[28:06.000 -> 28:08.000] I'm going to be a bit more concentrated.
[28:08.000 -> 28:09.000] No, I don't think so.
[28:09.000 -> 28:10.000] I don't think so.
[28:10.000 -> 28:11.000] We're going to do it anyway.
[28:11.000 -> 28:14.000] On our YouTube, we want to start doing things like races.
[28:14.000 -> 28:16.000] We've emailed racetracks.
[28:16.000 -> 28:17.000] We're fucking going for this.
[28:17.000 -> 28:19.000] We're going to hit content hard.
[28:19.000 -> 28:21.000] So just wait and see what we're going to get out.
[28:21.000 -> 28:28.320] You need to be subbed to our YouTube because we're definitely going to go hard on that. Potentially even watch-alongs if you guys wanted us to commentate
[28:28.320 -> 28:32.720] while you're watching it we could go we could live stream. That would be great. If you could
[28:32.720 -> 28:39.040] hang out with any F1 driver present or past who and why so someone says to us we can fly you to a
[28:39.040 -> 28:48.420] race so say we get offered to fight to Australia next week and they win we will invite any f1 driver present or past to come to have dinner with you and drinks who
[28:48.420 -> 28:54.780] would you pick yeah obviously I would love to pick Michael Schumacher yeah but
[28:54.780 -> 29:04.740] if if not him Senna yeah that would be amazing I don't know who I pick probably
[29:04.740 -> 29:07.400] that just through meeting David Coulthard at that event.
[29:07.400 -> 29:09.360] Oh my god, he's a fucking legend.
[29:09.360 -> 29:10.360] He's hilarious.
[29:10.360 -> 29:11.360] He's an absolute legend.
[29:11.360 -> 29:14.680] He's hilarious and his skin is immaculate for a man of his age.
[29:14.680 -> 29:19.560] He is, solely due to where we're at with the podcast and I feel like he would be a great
[29:19.560 -> 29:22.240] person for us to meet because he does loads of social stuff.
[29:22.240 -> 29:23.240] I'd just pick Lando.
[29:23.240 -> 29:25.800] I'd love to get Lando there and just chat to him
[29:25.800 -> 29:27.280] for a couple of hours about,
[29:27.280 -> 29:28.660] if you were sat down with him at dinner,
[29:28.660 -> 29:30.680] you could get everyone out on the table, couldn't you?
[29:30.680 -> 29:33.600] And talk about Quadrant, talk about everything he does,
[29:33.600 -> 29:34.960] and just have a great chat.
[29:34.960 -> 29:36.720] And he'd understand what you're on about.
[29:36.720 -> 29:39.720] So I think he'd be a great person to get on for sure as well.
[29:39.720 -> 29:40.560] That would be cool.
[29:40.560 -> 29:41.560] I'm gonna sneeze very soon.
[29:41.560 -> 29:42.760] Go on, go on.
[29:43.800 -> 29:45.300] Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh. I'm gonna sneeze very soon. Go on. Go on. Uh. Uh.
[29:46.100 -> 29:46.600] Uh.
[29:47.200 -> 29:47.700] Uh.
[29:48.300 -> 29:48.800] Uh.
[29:49.200 -> 29:50.200] UGH!
[29:50.700 -> 29:51.200] There you go.
[29:51.200 -> 29:52.700] That was like the start!
[29:52.700 -> 29:53.500] Just the one.
[29:53.500 -> 29:54.500] Start of the race.
[29:55.100 -> 29:55.600] Freder-
[29:55.600 -> 29:56.300] Frederic?
[29:56.500 -> 29:57.200] Frederic.
[29:57.200 -> 29:58.200] Frederic!
[29:58.600 -> 30:00.200] Frederic has said,
[30:00.700 -> 30:05.200] What's been the most surprising thing about Formula One since you started
[30:05.200 -> 30:09.360] watching? Like, since we started watching it properly, what is the most
[30:09.360 -> 30:15.000] surprising thing? Yeah. How much the cars can change. Wow, yeah. For me, for me, at least.
[30:15.000 -> 30:18.240] That's true. I've also been surprised by how much it cost to fix one when they
[30:18.240 -> 30:22.480] crashed. I didn't realize they were that expensive. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. That
[30:22.480 -> 30:26.620] surprised me as well. I think my most surprising thing is like
[30:26.620 -> 30:29.140] how technical everything is.
[30:29.140 -> 30:32.620] I watched the first race and then out of nowhere
[30:32.620 -> 30:34.500] became completely addicted with, you know,
[30:34.500 -> 30:36.020] when they do the overtakes and they lap
[30:36.020 -> 30:37.040] and they come out of the pit.
[30:37.040 -> 30:38.220] I just loved all that shit.
[30:38.220 -> 30:41.820] But the strategies, the fact that they can go out there
[30:41.820 -> 30:44.260] and have a different strategy with cars
[30:44.260 -> 30:45.760] that are very similar
[30:46.480 -> 30:51.680] is crazy. They're planning so far ahead. We see it in the F2 when like,
[30:52.640 -> 30:56.400] because you know at Jeddah, there was likely to crash, right? So people were starting on softs,
[30:56.400 -> 31:01.120] hoping for the safety car to pit under it, which is clever. But that's the strategy you look at.
[31:01.920 -> 31:07.320] Obviously people in Formula One did it and Jeddah as well And the fact that they're risking their whole race on there being a crash
[31:07.680 -> 31:11.060] Just think if Latifi didn't crash in Jeddah
[31:11.060 -> 31:14.540] It could have been completely different the Formula One gods they do exist
[31:14.540 -> 31:20.160] But they must think you have to you have to plan around them to a certain extent the Formula One gods do exist
[31:20.160 -> 31:22.620] I want to finish on my favorite question
[31:22.620 -> 31:25.800] We got and I think this is gonna be hilarious to talk about and I want you
[31:25.800 -> 31:30.400] To really really think about imagine. This is my team and your team, okay?
[31:31.520 -> 31:37.400] Girls guide f1 have said design your own f1 team with two drivers any team principal
[31:37.740 -> 31:42.460] Who would you pick off the current grid any team principal? You can pick any drivers any principal?
[31:42.460 -> 31:44.460] It's got to be your team and what would they be called?
[31:41.960 -> 31:43.540] Any team principal, you can pick any drivers, any principal, it's gotta be your team
[31:43.540 -> 31:45.080] and what would they be called?
[31:45.080 -> 31:48.560] So let's build your dream team off the current F1 grid.
[31:48.560 -> 31:50.880] Name's gonna be hard, I'd pick Toto Wolff as team boss.
[31:50.880 -> 31:51.720] Would you?
[31:51.720 -> 31:52.540] Yeah, because he's the boss.
[31:52.540 -> 31:53.640] I mean, that's fair enough when Mercedes
[31:53.640 -> 31:55.160] are one at seven years in a row.
[31:55.160 -> 31:56.080] He's an absolute G.
[31:56.080 -> 31:57.120] And I haven't listened to it yet,
[31:57.120 -> 31:59.480] but I've been recommended by my friend Brendan,
[31:59.480 -> 32:01.720] it was recommended to listen to a podcast
[32:01.720 -> 32:02.540] that Toto Wolff was on.
[32:02.540 -> 32:04.280] Oh, was it with Nico Rosberg?
[32:04.280 -> 32:05.240] Could be. Yeah, it's really good, I watched it. Apparently it was it with Nico Rosberg could be yes, really good
[32:05.240 -> 32:11.060] I watched it apparently it's amazing Nico Rosberg's podcast is amazing just the way that he talks about things and
[32:11.720 -> 32:14.340] Yeah, I look on life. It's that one. Oh, no
[32:14.340 -> 32:18.100] He might have gone on the Jake Humphries one as well in my book about beyond performance and stuff
[32:18.100 -> 32:22.000] I could have been that one. Yeah. No, it was that one. Yeah, so yeah interested to see that
[32:22.000 -> 32:24.080] But yeah, I'd like to say a wolf team boss
[32:24.800 -> 32:29.680] Probably Charles the Clare. Yeah, dr. Ferrari. I like him. Are you gonna put him with?
[32:32.000 -> 32:35.920] Now if we're talking tactics it yeah, you're trying to maximize points for our season
[32:35.920 -> 32:38.560] It's your team verse. This is what we should have done at the beginning of season
[32:38.560 -> 32:42.140] By the way, we could have actually done this played our own game. Mix you Maka
[32:43.320 -> 32:45.080] Huh, mix you Maka fair enough fair fair enough. I'm what just because are you going as Mercedes then? played our own game. Mick Schumacher. Huh? Mick Schumacher.
[32:45.080 -> 32:46.280] Fair enough.
[32:46.280 -> 32:47.280] Fair enough.
[32:47.280 -> 32:48.920] And what team are you going as?
[32:48.920 -> 32:49.760] Mercedes then?
[32:49.760 -> 32:51.200] No, Ferrari.
[32:51.200 -> 32:52.040] What car are you taking?
[32:52.040 -> 32:54.160] So you're taking the Ferrari car with Schumacher,
[32:54.160 -> 32:58.040] Toto as boss, and Leclerc as the main drivers.
[32:58.040 -> 32:58.880] What a mix match.
[32:58.880 -> 33:00.680] That would be a crazy mix.
[33:00.680 -> 33:02.560] I would go Horner.
[33:02.560 -> 33:03.400] For me, Horner.
[33:03.400 -> 33:04.800] I think he's like,
[33:04.800 -> 33:07.680] as harsh as a team
[33:07.680 -> 33:13.560] Mazepin I would go Horner I'd go Red Bull is the team and I would have
[33:13.560 -> 33:19.280] Verstappen and Peris you're just calling out fucking Red Bull. I'd have Verstappen and Leclerc.
[33:19.280 -> 33:24.160] Really? I'd have Verstappen and Leclerc. I mean I'd love to have Hamilton anyone would.
[33:24.160 -> 33:30.000] I mean yeah I would love to say Hamilton. Yeah but then Verstappen's like the number one driver so Leclerc is automatically secondary.
[33:30.000 -> 33:32.000] Yeah I don't know really how that...
[33:32.000 -> 33:37.000] Okay so if I can't pick someone like that I've got to have a backup. I'd go Lando.
[33:37.000 -> 33:42.000] I'd go Lando. And someone did send in a question saying could you ever see Lando at Red Bull?
[33:42.000 -> 33:45.360] And I looked at it and thought for a little bit
[33:45.360 -> 33:48.720] and I was like, well yeah, but they can leave mid contract.
[33:49.680 -> 33:51.960] Well, I say that, I'm not sure on that,
[33:51.960 -> 33:53.280] but I'd assume you can.
[33:53.280 -> 33:56.120] Like you can be bought out usually in most things.
[33:56.120 -> 33:57.320] I mean, I'm not saying it's gonna happen,
[33:57.320 -> 33:59.040] I'm just saying it could, I think.
[34:00.040 -> 34:01.960] But I don't know whether I could ever see Lando at Red Bull.
[34:01.960 -> 34:04.320] I definitely think it's an interesting one
[34:04.320 -> 34:06.880] because Checo is in a position with an amazing car,
[34:06.880 -> 34:09.400] got pole last weekend, he's a great driver.
[34:09.400 -> 34:12.560] But I don't know where Red Bull's plans are.
[34:12.560 -> 34:13.760] I mean, Red Bull are quite lucky,
[34:13.760 -> 34:17.920] because Verstappen's like the number one, and he's younger.
[34:17.920 -> 34:20.360] So their younger driver is the main man,
[34:20.360 -> 34:21.200] you know what I mean?
[34:21.200 -> 34:29.680] Red Bull have two choices to make at the end of this year. I guess it depends how the year pans out but if Max is on top again you
[34:29.680 -> 34:35.040] know maybe they keep Perez there just to help support him constantly winning.
[34:35.040 -> 34:38.400] Yeah well definitely if he's got a team that's the same as the Bottas Hamilton
[34:38.400 -> 34:41.280] situation you bring two teammates together that really liked each other I
[34:41.280 -> 34:49.500] saw an article they said this Gasly's this year at the end of the year will be the only chance that they really have to get Gasly apparently for some reason
[34:49.500 -> 34:54.020] So it'd be interesting to see whether Red Bull go for that. But what would... you got a name your team?
[34:54.400 -> 34:56.400] I've got to name my team. You've got to name your team!
[34:58.600 -> 35:02.580] On the spot, what are you going to call them? What's that football team that some think Wanderers?
[35:03.400 -> 35:07.160] Bolton, Wigan Wanderers. I'd call it the Toto Wanderers. some think Wanderers? Bolton Wigan Wanderers. I'd call it the Bolton. I'd call it the Toto Wanderers.
[35:08.000 -> 35:10.600] Yeah, nice. I'll be Horner Athletic
[35:11.880 -> 35:13.880] Horner Athletic and Toto Wanderers.
[35:13.880 -> 35:15.880] Toto Wanderers sounds hilarious.
[35:16.320 -> 35:22.320] If Horner was my team boss, I'd call the group Spice Girls, but the Spice Boys.
[35:22.840 -> 35:27.080] The Spice Boys. You should. We'll play that at the beginning of next season.
[35:27.080 -> 35:30.560] I want you guys to play along at home, have a think, see what team boss you'd pick and
[35:30.560 -> 35:32.120] what two drivers you'd pick.
[35:32.120 -> 35:35.200] But yeah, that's our Thursday episode.
[35:35.200 -> 35:39.080] It's been a short one, we will be back, no that's our Monday episode, sorry.

[36:40.120 -> 36:43.040] We were gonna vlog Goodwood, but then we thought,
[36:43.040 -> 36:44.680] well, we're gonna vlog actual Goodwood,
[36:44.680 -> 36:45.520] but not the members me
[36:45.520 -> 36:49.980] Yeah, yeah, it could be a bit weird to walk in with a book and ran and no fucking clue
