[01:26.000 -> 01:28.000] Can I get a photograph?
[01:28.000 -> 01:30.000] No you can't!
[01:30.000 -> 01:32.000] They're private, you can't get any photos of me.
[01:32.000 -> 01:34.000] I'll be turning down all the photos
[01:34.000 -> 01:36.000] of any fans trying to come up to me at a race
[01:36.000 -> 01:38.000] and ask for photos, it's a stern no.
[01:38.000 -> 01:40.000] You absolutely loved it when we were walking out
[01:40.000 -> 01:42.000] and people were asking for pictures
[01:42.000 -> 01:44.000] and you were like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah!
[01:44.000 -> 01:45.440] I was like, yeah, yeah, I'll take it, I'll take it.
[01:45.440 -> 01:46.400] If you ever want a picture of Fab,
[01:46.400 -> 01:48.160] just ask him, he'll take as many as you want.
[01:48.160 -> 01:50.680] Do it, yeah, anything, any pose, anything,
[01:50.680 -> 01:52.520] clothes on, off, I don't mind.
[01:52.520 -> 01:53.700] Fuck it out.
[01:53.700 -> 01:56.940] Guys, we are fresh off the back of the Japanese Grand Prix.
[01:56.940 -> 01:58.940] It's been a double header, it's been really exciting.
[01:58.940 -> 02:00.480] Do you know what I've really loved?
[02:00.480 -> 02:03.040] Is seeing all these drivers, everyone that we know
[02:03.040 -> 02:06.160] in the F1 who we've got on Instagram now, just going home.
[02:06.160 -> 02:07.360] Yeah, having a bit of a break.
[02:07.360 -> 02:08.640] You know that they needed it.
[02:08.640 -> 02:10.760] Just going home for the, what, how long have they got?
[02:10.760 -> 02:12.280] Like a week off, just over a week?
[02:12.280 -> 02:13.840] I see it mostly with Brad.
[02:13.840 -> 02:15.080] Like we're really close with Brad
[02:15.080 -> 02:16.200] and like we know he's got a little girl
[02:16.200 -> 02:17.600] and like when we see him home with her,
[02:17.600 -> 02:19.020] you just know that to him,
[02:19.020 -> 02:21.080] that's so special after talking about him,
[02:21.080 -> 02:23.880] after him talking about her and how much he misses home.
[02:23.880 -> 02:25.160] Like it must be hard, man.
[02:25.160 -> 02:27.480] Yeah, it's surprising how many people come back to London.
[02:27.480 -> 02:30.160] I didn't think like many people would actually live here.
[02:30.160 -> 02:30.980] I didn't think they did.
[02:30.980 -> 02:33.360] I thought they were mostly up by the other factories
[02:33.360 -> 02:35.400] that are like up by the Milton Keynes.
[02:35.400 -> 02:36.680] I thought that's where I thought they'd be.
[02:36.680 -> 02:37.760] That's where we're moving.
[02:37.760 -> 02:39.240] Oh yeah, don't tell them that.
[02:39.240 -> 02:40.640] Guys, we're moving.
[02:40.640 -> 02:44.640] We're gonna pitch a tent outside Red Bull MK7
[02:44.640 -> 02:46.120] and that's where we're gonna just live for a little bit.
[02:46.120 -> 02:49.440] Yeah, we thought about living on the lawn of Red Bull.
[02:49.440 -> 02:51.080] So we were gonna stay inside,
[02:51.080 -> 02:52.760] but apparently they haven't got enough money
[02:52.760 -> 02:53.880] for any more hotel rooms.
[02:53.880 -> 02:54.920] I wonder if we can get a plan in.
[02:54.920 -> 02:55.760] Budget cap.
[02:55.760 -> 02:56.600] What?
[02:56.600 -> 02:59.000] On the edge of their hotel.
[02:59.000 -> 03:00.960] Yeah, no, on the edge of like MK7,
[03:00.960 -> 03:02.000] like the actual factory.
[03:02.000 -> 03:02.960] Is that what it's called?
[03:02.960 -> 03:05.320] We can try that, but it is important to know
[03:05.320 -> 03:07.840] that our guest who is going to be sat on the sofa tomorrow
[03:07.840 -> 03:09.280] is coming down from that way.
[03:09.280 -> 03:12.440] Yeah, and he's absolutely not a Red Bull driver
[03:12.440 -> 03:13.760] or anything to do with Red Bull.
[03:13.760 -> 03:15.200] We've been teasing it on TikTok.
[03:15.200 -> 03:17.520] As you guys listen to the pod may not know,
[03:17.520 -> 03:20.300] today, it's Thursday, if you listen to some Thursday,
[03:20.300 -> 03:22.520] we are filming with a Formula One driver
[03:22.520 -> 03:25.000] in our flat on our sofa today.
[03:25.000 -> 03:28.000] The episode won't be out this week, probably won't be out next week.
[03:28.000 -> 03:29.500] I think it's gonna go live at the end of the month.
[03:29.500 -> 03:33.500] Guys, you're gonna have to wait for a little bit because diamonds are made...
[03:33.500 -> 03:38.000] What's the saying? Over a period of time, you can't make a diamond straight away.
[03:38.000 -> 03:42.500] So we need a little bit of time. We're gonna get everything together, make sure the videos are as good as they can be.
[03:42.500 -> 03:44.000] Make sure the pod's amazing.
[03:44.000 -> 03:46.720] Yeah, this one needs a lot of edit of edit like I don't want to rush this
[03:46.720 -> 03:50.000] one like we normally do we've got other episodes pre film that are we gonna be
[03:50.000 -> 03:55.060] going up yeah but trust me you're gonna love it it's a big big guest this is a
[03:55.060 -> 03:59.480] big big month for us not only do we have this guest we know that we've got a few

[04:06.000 -> 04:08.880] It's a great time to be here on Pit Stop Podcast.
[04:08.880 -> 04:09.720] It's quite funny,
[04:09.720 -> 04:11.400] because I was speaking to Fab this morning
[04:11.400 -> 04:13.800] and we started this like at the end of Feb
[04:13.800 -> 04:16.120] and now we're in October
[04:16.120 -> 04:19.880] and there's actually someone off TV coming to sit like,
[04:19.880 -> 04:21.160] I mean, we've had amazing guests.
[04:21.160 -> 04:22.480] Obviously these guys have been on TV,
[04:22.480 -> 04:24.920] but this is an actual Formula One driver
[04:24.920 -> 04:27.760] coming to sit on our sofa, which is pretty crazy.
[04:27.760 -> 04:29.580] And it's funny like how we're setting up for it.
[04:29.580 -> 04:32.360] Like after this pod, let's just give him a time
[04:32.360 -> 04:33.200] so he know what's going on.
[04:33.200 -> 04:36.520] Like it's currently half eight on the Wednesday night.
[04:36.520 -> 04:38.720] Jake has spent all day cleaning the flat.
[04:38.720 -> 04:39.560] Cheers, man.
[04:39.560 -> 04:40.520] Making sure it's absolutely,
[04:40.520 -> 04:43.000] he hasn't stopped literally hoovering,
[04:43.000 -> 04:44.520] like wiping all the sides down.
[04:44.520 -> 04:45.840] Yeah, dusting everywhere,
[04:45.840 -> 04:47.360] cleaning all the cracks and crevices.
[04:47.360 -> 04:48.200] I mean, I've got to give it to you.
[04:48.200 -> 04:49.040] You've done everything.
[04:49.040 -> 04:50.480] I haven't done a single thing today.
[04:50.480 -> 04:51.440] You took all the bins down.
[04:51.440 -> 04:52.280] No, I did nothing.
[04:52.280 -> 04:53.100] I've done nothing.
[04:53.100 -> 04:53.940] That was you.
[04:53.940 -> 04:54.760] Remember? Remember?
[04:54.760 -> 04:56.080] And I even cleaned your toilet.
[04:56.080 -> 04:56.920] Yeah, you did.
[04:56.920 -> 04:58.680] And then I actually needed a shower
[04:58.680 -> 05:00.600] and you came and like got my back.
[05:00.600 -> 05:01.440] Okay.
[05:01.440 -> 05:03.880] You've been doing a lot, my friend.
[05:03.880 -> 05:04.920] Let's just remember to clean the middle.
[05:04.920 -> 05:06.520] Sometimes it's too much.
[05:06.520 -> 05:07.920] No, no.
[05:07.920 -> 05:08.940] Yeah, I know we're close,
[05:08.940 -> 05:11.080] but it's getting a bit strange.
[05:11.080 -> 05:13.160] You don't mind when I stand outside your room with a towel,
[05:13.160 -> 05:14.000] do you?
[05:14.000 -> 05:15.340] Well, I appreciate it,
[05:15.340 -> 05:18.160] but sometimes it happens a bit too often.
[05:18.160 -> 05:19.000] Okay.
[05:19.000 -> 05:19.820] Anyway.
[05:19.820 -> 05:21.520] Yeah, let's just make sure we clean the middle bathroom
[05:21.520 -> 05:22.360] for our guest tomorrow,
[05:22.360 -> 05:23.880] because when Brad Skains came round,
[05:23.880 -> 05:25.840] I'll tell you what, it was Brad Staines in that toilet.
[05:25.840 -> 05:27.040] It worked great.
[05:27.040 -> 05:27.840] That's disgusting.
[05:27.840 -> 05:30.720] It worked great, and he went in there, there was no toilet roll, I felt awful.
[05:30.720 -> 05:32.720] Second he left, I went into the middle bathroom and thought,
[05:32.720 -> 05:37.760] Fab, Max Verstappen's coach has just seen a toilet that is absolutely disgusting.
[05:37.760 -> 05:40.720] So we're going to tidy our flat for tomorrow's guest, alright?
[05:40.720 -> 05:43.120] Maybe we just leave it disgusting.
[05:43.120 -> 05:45.260] Maybe that's the pit stop effect.
[05:45.260 -> 05:47.240] No, people will never come back.
[05:47.240 -> 05:49.040] People will, to be fair, our flat isn't that bad.
[05:49.040 -> 05:54.120] I've got to give both of us credit, our flat, considering we're two lads living in a flat
[05:54.120 -> 05:55.880] together, it's actually not that bad.
[05:55.880 -> 05:57.800] Yeah, it's alright, and we're quite good at cleaning.
[05:57.800 -> 06:01.040] There's normally just about nine Yazoo bottles littered around the fucking living room.
[06:01.040 -> 06:02.040] Love Yazoo.
[06:02.040 -> 06:05.200] If Yazoo want to sponsor me, I love milkshakes. Jake shakes.
[06:05.200 -> 06:06.200] I make a great milkshake.
[06:06.200 -> 06:08.720] However, Fab now makes a...
[06:08.720 -> 06:09.720] Fab attack.
[06:09.720 -> 06:10.720] A Fab attack.
[06:10.720 -> 06:12.600] And I'll tell you what, it's got some legs.
[06:12.600 -> 06:13.600] It could potentially be better than a Jake shake.
[06:13.600 -> 06:14.600] Got some legs.
[06:14.600 -> 06:15.600] Mate, it is far better than a Jake shake.
[06:15.600 -> 06:20.720] Do you know what, I reckon when you cry, you get like your Zoo tears that come out.
[06:20.720 -> 06:21.720] No.
[06:21.720 -> 06:22.720] Because you drink it so often.
[06:22.720 -> 06:28.000] No, don't cry at your Zoo, Fab. But yeah, massive guest tomorrow, Formula 1 driver in the flat
[06:28.000 -> 06:31.000] for the first time. Fab, what's been going on in the world of Formula 1?
[06:31.000 -> 06:35.000] Jake, you've asked me that question knowing full well that I haven't got anything to reply
[06:35.000 -> 06:40.500] to that with. I've just spent the last half an hour on News Now, a very reputable website,
[06:40.500 -> 06:45.320] trying to find some latest news, some top stories, some most read, anything
[06:45.320 -> 06:47.160] anything I could grasp and I got
[06:47.160 -> 06:48.360] nothing. You must have
[06:48.360 -> 06:50.080] something. Well I've got little bits, little
[06:50.080 -> 06:51.680] dribs and drabs. Come on, drib and drab me something!
[06:51.680 -> 06:55.200] Let's have a convo! Me and you, two Formula One fans, two new
[06:55.200 -> 06:57.280] Formula One fans. Right, Lewis Hamilton
[06:57.280 -> 07:00.000] fans are being petty. There you go, I said it.
[07:00.000 -> 07:03.040] Wow. Yeah. Why? Yes, because they're
[07:03.040 -> 07:07.500] dishing dirt on Max Verstappen. Okay, where's this opinion coming from? Not your own?
[07:07.500 -> 07:09.000] No, no, absolutely not.
[07:09.000 -> 07:10.500] This is you reading an article?
[07:10.500 -> 07:13.000] This is, this is, this is legit off Twitter.
[07:13.000 -> 07:14.000] Okay.
[07:14.000 -> 07:17.500] I've got a live tweet here from someone called Louis Friel.
[07:17.500 -> 07:21.500] Well, I've seen a lot of it. I've seen it. Everyone's calling for Max Verstappen to lose his championship.
[07:21.500 -> 07:23.500] Well, you use Twitter quite a lot. I don't really go on Twitter.
[07:23.500 -> 07:26.800] Yeah, I use Twitter all the time, that's basically all it is because...
[07:26.800 -> 07:28.000] So what have you been seeing?
[07:28.000 -> 07:31.040] Well you've got to look at it like this, if you're a Mercedes fan
[07:31.040 -> 07:35.360] and Red Bull won the championship last year by spending more money than they were allowed
[07:35.360 -> 07:38.560] and the championship was won by such a tiny margin,
[07:38.560 -> 07:41.760] Mercedes fans are going to think, well they only won because they cheated.
[07:41.760 -> 07:44.480] The gap was so small, Hamilton should have won the championship.
[07:44.480 -> 07:45.920] I'm just going to pull this tweet up here.
[07:45.920 -> 07:47.640] So this guy said,
[07:47.640 -> 07:51.240] Max's first championship win was human error.
[07:51.240 -> 07:52.920] Right, Michael Massey,
[07:52.920 -> 07:54.000] not with his finger on the pulse.
[07:54.000 -> 07:57.440] And his second is because another driver got a penalty.
[07:57.440 -> 07:58.840] That is so embarrassing.
[07:58.840 -> 08:00.280] What are your thoughts on that?
[08:00.280 -> 08:03.920] Man, do we just open ourselves up to controversy
[08:03.920 -> 08:05.800] the second you ask me to speak about any of this stuff?
[08:05.800 -> 08:06.300] I like it!
[08:06.300 -> 08:06.800] No matter what?
[08:06.800 -> 08:07.300] I like it!
[08:07.300 -> 08:10.800] Of course you do because you've asked me so I'll be the one getting all the fucking hate!
[08:10.800 -> 08:12.300] I love it when you're in the fucking fire and stuff!
[08:12.300 -> 08:13.800] You want me in the striving zone?
[08:13.800 -> 08:15.300] Well you always are, you always are!
[08:15.300 -> 08:17.300] God man, alright, alright!
[08:17.300 -> 08:18.300] I read the comments!
[08:18.300 -> 08:26.680] No, right, okay. Max's, I'm not on board with the last season that it was human error. It's just my opinion. You know, I'm a new fan
[08:26.680 -> 08:29.000] I don't know loads. I'm probably wrong. What do you mean then?
[08:29.400 -> 08:32.640] Well, I believe Max Verstappen deserved to win last year by a mile
[08:32.640 -> 08:36.700] Like when you look at his laps led he led like 75% of the laps in the year
[08:36.700 -> 08:42.120] Like he was just unbelievable year-round. There were moments last year where like there was the crashes
[08:42.120 -> 08:44.960] It's that because Red Bull spent an extra 7 million. I
[08:42.320 -> 08:43.160] last year where like there was the crashes. It's still the same.
[08:43.160 -> 08:45.120] Is that because Red Bull spent an extra 7 million?
[08:45.120 -> 08:46.960] Oh, I am.
[08:46.960 -> 08:50.360] I can definitely see the argument to if they prove,
[08:50.360 -> 08:52.660] cause it hasn't been quite proven where the money is yet,
[08:52.660 -> 08:54.840] where the money and the budget cap spend is like
[08:54.840 -> 08:57.460] until that actually comes out, you won't know.
[08:57.460 -> 08:59.600] Like if they've actually spent an extra
[08:59.600 -> 09:04.380] like 7.5 million on the car, then maybe fair enough.
[09:04.380 -> 09:06.920] But if it's on like travel of employees and shit,
[09:06.920 -> 09:09.240] like no, of course they shouldn't win the championship.
[09:09.240 -> 09:10.080] I still don't think-
[09:10.080 -> 09:12.040] Have we had full clarity on that yet?
[09:12.040 -> 09:12.880] Do we know what the money was spent on?
[09:12.880 -> 09:13.700] No, I don't think so.
[09:13.700 -> 09:15.200] I don't, there's a lot of bullshit.
[09:15.200 -> 09:17.360] I've seen more people saying that it was something
[09:17.360 -> 09:19.040] to do with the catering team and something,
[09:19.040 -> 09:19.860] but then I've seen-
[09:19.860 -> 09:20.700] That's what I saw.
[09:20.700 -> 09:21.520] But then I've seen other people say
[09:21.520 -> 09:23.100] it's not even part of the budget cap.
[09:23.100 -> 09:25.680] To me, I don't think- I don't think it is part of the budget cap. To me... I don't think...
[09:25.680 -> 09:27.440] I don't think it is part of the budget cap.
[09:27.760 -> 09:28.260] Really?
[09:28.260 -> 09:30.640] I think that's a load of bologna, that's a load of strewtwaffle, mate.
[09:30.640 -> 09:32.240] Yeah, it must be part of the car.
[09:32.800 -> 09:37.360] I still am quite struggling to get to terms with removing a championship,
[09:37.360 -> 09:41.920] especially when this is like a young driver who did so incredibly well.
[09:42.400 -> 09:45.120] I find this really interesting though, because do you remember at the start of the year,
[09:45.120 -> 09:47.960] I told you that there's been so many incidents
[09:47.960 -> 09:50.080] over the years where teams have tried to work
[09:50.080 -> 09:52.720] through loopholes of the rules,
[09:52.720 -> 09:55.560] and they've had the fucking seagull wings on the car.
[09:55.560 -> 09:57.120] I mean, obviously that's a blatant,
[09:57.120 -> 09:58.920] like you can see it on the car.
[09:58.920 -> 10:00.520] This is something a bit more sneaky,
[10:00.520 -> 10:01.480] but this is what I love,
[10:01.480 -> 10:04.480] is that they try and work ways around.
[10:04.480 -> 10:06.900] Like Red Bull know that they were spending more money, right?
[10:06.900 -> 10:08.880] So they would have thought they could get away with it.
[10:08.880 -> 10:10.320] I'm not going to lie.
[10:10.320 -> 10:14.000] I actually don't know if they would.
[10:15.060 -> 10:17.580] I feel like with a change of regulation
[10:17.580 -> 10:18.880] and a change of rule book,
[10:18.880 -> 10:20.960] we saw it with how they announced the title.
[10:20.960 -> 10:22.680] This is a good way to look at it.
[10:22.680 -> 10:25.060] If when they're announcing a world champion,
[10:25.060 -> 10:26.520] the people aren't in the sport,
[10:26.520 -> 10:28.940] the people in the sport aren't even sure if someone's won,
[10:28.940 -> 10:30.860] how on earth are they meant to be able to read a rule book
[10:30.860 -> 10:33.440] about spend without with it all changing
[10:33.440 -> 10:34.920] and things being unclear?
[10:34.920 -> 10:37.240] Like there's clearly so much in this sport right now.
[10:37.240 -> 10:38.640] I think it probably is clear though,
[10:38.640 -> 10:40.520] cause it's only Red Bull and Aston Martin that have done it.
[10:40.520 -> 10:43.160] Every other team have been managing to cope with it.
[10:43.160 -> 10:44.040] I don't think they would have,
[10:44.040 -> 10:48.100] Red Bull would have known they were over. I think they would have I don't know man
[10:48.240 -> 10:50.620] Like until you add it all up at the end
[10:50.620 -> 10:55.280] That's very hard to keep on top of like the amount of shit don't add it up at the end though you add up the cost
[10:55.280 -> 10:57.280] As you're going along well, okay?
[10:57.560 -> 11:02.380] You're trying to push me into a fucking corner. I'm just being realistic. This is fucking bread ball
[11:02.380 -> 11:05.040] They're fucking one of the greatest Formula One teams in the world!
[11:05.040 -> 11:08.640] If their accounts guy can't keep a track of what the fuck they're spending,
[11:08.640 -> 11:11.040] then they should probably fire him and get a new one!
[11:11.040 -> 11:13.200] They should get me, I'm really good with times tables.
[11:13.200 -> 11:17.600] Adrian Newey, great fucking engineer technician, but your accounts guy is dogshit.
[11:17.600 -> 11:19.440] But you're shit with a calculator!
[11:19.440 -> 11:20.080] That's it!
[11:20.080 -> 11:21.520] What, you actually think they knew?
[11:21.520 -> 11:23.760] Of course, yeah, of course.
[11:23.760 -> 11:26.000] It's interesting, because no one's ever really gonna know.
[11:26.000 -> 11:28.000] I think they've just tried to bluff it off.
[11:28.000 -> 11:31.000] So Aston Martin actually stayed within the budget cap.
[11:31.000 -> 11:35.000] That's important to remember. They're getting a penalty for something,
[11:35.000 -> 11:37.000] but they did stay within the budget cap.
[11:37.000 -> 11:42.000] They're not within the 5% over, they just have a penalty for doing something really minor.
[11:42.000 -> 11:44.000] So they aren't gonna get...
[11:44.000 -> 11:47.240] Well they must have gone over a little bit. It's not really like the same way Red Bull
[11:47.240 -> 11:51.000] have I'm pretty sure maybe Aston Martins is going over with the travel of staff
[11:51.000 -> 11:55.160] or something stupid because I read basically Aston Martin aren't gonna get
[11:55.160 -> 11:59.760] the same penalty. Red Bull actually in like a 5% over it's rumored to be isn't
[11:59.760 -> 12:06.840] it 7.5 million pound. That's yes. No it it's basically 5%. They basically gone over 5% of the budget cap
[12:06.840 -> 12:10.440] and 5% of a lot of money is like 7.5 million or something.
[12:10.440 -> 12:11.620] Yes.
[12:11.620 -> 12:13.400] What are you saying then?
[12:13.400 -> 12:15.860] Okay, let's put it this, it comes out tomorrow
[12:15.860 -> 12:18.800] that it's proven the FII have done it on the budget caps
[12:18.800 -> 12:21.040] and they've looked into it and they can see that Red Bull
[12:21.040 -> 12:24.200] spent 7.5 million on their car last year
[12:24.200 -> 12:28.240] than they were allowed to. What do you think should happen? There needs to be an investigation
[12:28.240 -> 12:32.240] into what they've spent it on and then whether that's had a direct impact on
[12:32.240 -> 12:37.280] the speed of the car. Mate, the thing is right, honestly, we know how much
[12:37.280 -> 12:41.280] we know how much orange juice is these days. It's fucking extortionate.
[12:41.280 -> 12:47.240] Don't get me started on cranberry juice, That's even more. If you have a Red Bull, chose to go with the juice,
[12:47.240 -> 12:48.880] and it's been winning.
[12:48.880 -> 12:51.920] And it's also more eco-friendly than fuel.
[12:51.920 -> 12:53.680] I just want to know what they spent it on.
[12:53.680 -> 12:54.280] We need to see.
[12:54.280 -> 12:55.320] We need to break it down.
[12:55.320 -> 12:58.280] Because if they haven't been spending it on fucking stroops
[12:58.280 -> 13:00.360] when they're in fucking Deutschland
[13:00.360 -> 13:02.900] and they're eating stroopwafels every day, then that's fine.
[13:02.900 -> 13:08.520] Because it's only going to make the stuff fat and heavier. But if they're spending it on like a fuel injected,
[13:08.520 -> 13:10.560] fucking all this other stuff,
[13:10.560 -> 13:11.760] then it's a tricky situation.
[13:11.760 -> 13:14.560] I'm not one of those people who holds onto the past.
[13:14.560 -> 13:16.560] So I wouldn't say go back and take it from Max.
[13:16.560 -> 13:17.720] I think that's a bit far.
[13:17.720 -> 13:19.320] Let him have it.
[13:19.320 -> 13:20.160] But-
[13:20.160 -> 13:21.200] So this is your,
[13:21.200 -> 13:23.640] this is if they say it was definitely on the car.
[13:23.640 -> 13:24.460] Yes.
[13:24.460 -> 13:26.240] Yeah. But if it had, and then it's like,
[13:26.240 -> 13:29.480] well, then Lewis Hamilton should have won,
[13:29.480 -> 13:31.440] then what do you think would have happened this year?
[13:31.440 -> 13:33.120] But what's that margin?
[13:33.120 -> 13:34.160] What's that margin?
[13:34.160 -> 13:35.320] You're saying if it had,
[13:35.320 -> 13:36.640] that it meant Lewis Hamilton should have won,
[13:36.640 -> 13:39.120] they were literally the tiniest amount of points.
[13:39.120 -> 13:40.760] Yeah, you deduct points, you deduct 50 points.
[13:40.760 -> 13:42.120] If you did a ratio,
[13:42.120 -> 13:43.760] okay, this would be a good way to do it.
[13:43.760 -> 13:45.280] Say it is 7.5 million
[13:45.280 -> 13:50.560] and that's 5%, that means 10% would be 140 so the budget cap must be about 150 million. The
[13:50.560 -> 13:59.280] budget cap is 145. The budget cap is 145 million and 5% is roughly 7.5 okay so let's divide 145
[13:59.280 -> 14:06.520] by 20 races, there was 20 races last year. Was it 20 or 21? 20. So 14, that would be also seven.
[14:06.520 -> 14:10.920] That would mean I'm pretty sure that one race
[14:10.920 -> 14:15.600] would basically equal around 7.5 million.
[14:15.600 -> 14:17.720] If you did 7.5 million times 20,
[14:17.720 -> 14:19.840] that would be about the budget cap, roughly.
[14:19.840 -> 14:21.680] So technically, if you're saying,
[14:21.680 -> 14:24.040] if they wiped out even that one race
[14:24.040 -> 14:26.040] for that's how much they've gone over,
[14:26.040 -> 14:28.200] Hamilton would win the championship.
[14:28.200 -> 14:29.720] So are you getting-
[14:29.720 -> 14:31.920] 25 points, yeah, so Hamilton would have it.
[14:31.920 -> 14:32.760] Yeah.
[14:32.760 -> 14:35.480] So technically, you can see the argument
[14:35.480 -> 14:36.320] from Mercedes fans.
[14:36.320 -> 14:37.440] It's not just me saying it,
[14:37.440 -> 14:38.280] there are other people saying it.
[14:38.280 -> 14:39.360] Oh no, I've seen it everywhere.
[14:39.360 -> 14:40.800] Yeah, it's all over Google as well.
[14:40.800 -> 14:42.960] Just to clear up, in our TikTok we put up, by the way,
[14:42.960 -> 14:45.040] when we said that Max Verstappen would, they should remove points from this year, we were aware that Checo would lose points as well. Just to clear up in our TikTok we put up by the way, when we said that Max Verstappen would,
[14:45.040 -> 14:46.400] they should remove points from this year.
[14:46.400 -> 14:49.280] We were aware that Checo would lose points as well,
[14:49.280 -> 14:50.760] but I just think Checo would win it anyway.
[14:50.760 -> 14:52.600] Oh yeah, we were aware of that.
[14:52.600 -> 14:53.440] We needed to clear that one up.
[14:53.440 -> 14:55.680] We were aware of that, yeah.
[14:55.680 -> 14:58.560] They probably aren't going to remove his championship though.
[14:58.560 -> 15:00.240] No, but what would you think would happen this year
[15:00.240 -> 15:01.080] if they did?
[15:04.040 -> 15:05.200] I'm not gonna lie.
[15:06.100 -> 15:09.500] Like honestly, I reckon if Red Bull went over the budget cap
[15:09.500 -> 15:14.400] last year, I reckon this year they've absolutely fucking
[15:14.700 -> 15:15.800] flew over it.
[15:16.000 -> 15:17.700] They're probably bricking it as well.
[15:18.200 -> 15:20.300] Fuck me, when did they see what we spent this year?
[15:20.300 -> 15:21.200] Oh my God.
[15:21.900 -> 15:22.800] I don't know man.
[15:22.800 -> 15:25.000] I think I don't think you can take the championship.
[15:25.000 -> 15:30.000] It's most likely that he probably starts next season with like, no not he, when I say he, I mean they.
[15:30.000 -> 15:32.000] Red Bull start with like minus 50 points.
[15:32.000 -> 15:34.000] Christian Horner runs the whole of Red Bull.
[15:34.000 -> 15:38.000] The thing is though, then you've got the argument, a lot of people comment on our TikTok,
[15:38.000 -> 15:43.000] like it shouldn't be the drivers who are penalised, it should be the constructor in the constructors championship.
[15:43.000 -> 15:45.160] But if you said to Red Bull, yeah we've got to in the constructors championship, but if you said to Red Bull
[15:49.040 -> 15:49.560] Yeah, well you got we got a movie or constructors championship, but you can keep
[15:55.000 -> 15:59.160] Max Verstappen's championship they're gonna they're gonna prefer to have the drivers one than the constructors anyway Don't know constructors is actually a big thing is it it's a really big thing because you got to think drivers
[15:59.160 -> 16:03.560] I suppose it's for the whole drivers come and go like just off the top of my head the best example
[16:03.560 -> 16:04.920] I would have is like
[16:04.920 -> 16:06.400] Michael Schumacher,
[16:06.400 -> 16:08.960] obviously absolute go at the time everyone's rooting for him
[16:08.960 -> 16:12.080] but now Ferrari have come so far forward since then
[16:12.080 -> 16:14.920] and all the attention's on Leclerc and Carlos.
[16:14.920 -> 16:16.960] But really to Ferrari, all they care about
[16:16.960 -> 16:19.040] is their constructors points, I guess.
[16:19.040 -> 16:21.000] Because it proves how much of a good team they are.
[16:21.000 -> 16:24.880] Rain or shine, whatever driver, their team is the best.
[16:24.880 -> 16:28.400] Who, Ferrari? Yeah. I don't think that's quite current at the moment.
[16:28.400 -> 16:32.160] I'd say it's fairly current. What, you think Ferrari are the best?
[16:32.160 -> 16:36.000] In the whole of the white world, yeah. They haven't even got the most.
[16:36.000 -> 16:38.480] Besides Williams. Oh yeah, they've got 16, Williams have got
[16:38.480 -> 16:39.480] 12. I think.
[16:39.480 -> 16:43.600] Yeah, they're the greatest team in the world. They are the greatest team all time, but right
[16:43.600 -> 16:45.000] now they're not.
[16:45.000 -> 16:45.840] No, they're not.
[16:45.840 -> 16:46.660] It's good to see them come back though.
[16:46.660 -> 16:50.040] Okay, so let's just give a final decision from both of us.
[16:50.040 -> 16:52.160] If you were in charge of the FIA
[16:52.160 -> 16:53.980] and there was this budget cap situation,
[16:53.980 -> 16:55.200] how do you resolve it?
[16:55.200 -> 16:57.120] And how do you keep everyone happy?
[16:57.120 -> 16:57.960] Okay.
[16:57.960 -> 16:58.780] What would you do?
[16:58.780 -> 16:59.620] I would probably get fired.
[16:59.620 -> 17:04.480] I would say like, forget that year.
[17:04.480 -> 17:06.000] It's in the past forget it
[17:06.000 -> 17:10.000] Yeah but then everyone else is gonna say we spent 150 million pounds and they cheated
[17:10.000 -> 17:12.000] How can we forget it? I'm gonna argue it like I'm Toto
[17:12.000 -> 17:13.000] No, no, okay but then this year
[17:13.000 -> 17:14.000] I'm arguing with the FIA here
[17:14.000 -> 17:15.000] This year
[17:15.000 -> 17:16.000] You're in a meeting with Toto
[17:16.000 -> 17:17.000] They're fucked right now
[17:17.000 -> 17:20.000] If they've done it two years on the trot then they're fucked
[17:20.000 -> 17:23.000] Two years on the trot spending over the budget cap
[17:23.000 -> 17:28.960] Red Bull get a ban from racing for two years I'm being serious Red Bull can't race for two years on the trot spending over the budget cap Red Bull get a ban from racing for two years I've been serious Red Bull can't race for two years
[17:28.960 -> 17:33.380] you're lying bro it's not that bad no you can do that as well that's happened in the
[17:33.380 -> 17:38.360] past mate if you breach rules teams can get banned from racing you think that if
[17:38.360 -> 17:41.960] I don't think permanently Red Bull shouldn't be gone forever but like two
[17:41.960 -> 17:47.360] year ban you think if they've got over the budget gap next year, two years in a row, they should be banned for two years? Yeah.
[17:47.360 -> 17:56.680] Really? I don't think that's an exaggeration. I think that's completely fair. I'm not gonna lie, I can see what you're saying because every other team is spending that much money and trying so hard to stay on the road.
[17:56.680 -> 18:00.560] I think that's being light. They could ban them forever. Teams have been banned in the past
[18:00.560 -> 18:03.520] permanently forever. They can't race an F1 ever again. So what are you gonna do
[18:03.520 -> 18:05.520] right now for this?
[18:05.520 -> 18:08.160] Because they obviously haven't announced a punishment yet or what's gonna happen.
[18:08.160 -> 18:10.080] But it's happened, they've gone over the budget cap.
[18:10.080 -> 18:11.680] What punishment are you gonna enforce?
[18:11.680 -> 18:13.200] No you leave it, just leave it, forget it.
[18:13.200 -> 18:14.640] You can't just forget it!
[18:14.640 -> 18:17.600] Yeah because everyone's just rubbing salt in the wound, there's no point.
[18:17.600 -> 18:20.480] You can't just forget it, you're the head of the FIA.
[18:20.480 -> 18:21.840] There's people knocking at your door.
[18:21.840 -> 18:22.560] What can you do?
[18:22.560 -> 18:23.840] Give the championship to Lewis.
[18:23.840 -> 18:26.280] Oh Lewis, there you go, You won it a year late.
[18:26.280 -> 18:27.880] How dead is that?
[18:27.880 -> 18:29.400] How, and that's not, that's not,
[18:29.400 -> 18:31.680] I think the sport has to,
[18:31.680 -> 18:34.880] has to tailor towards the fans now.
[18:34.880 -> 18:37.320] And that wouldn't be fair to the fans.
[18:37.320 -> 18:41.960] Would you be satisfied if they removed 75 points
[18:41.960 -> 18:46.000] from Verstappen and 75 points from Checo this season and opened it up
[18:46.000 -> 18:49.600] for the rest of the year and just said there's your penalty for last year but
[18:49.600 -> 18:53.300] even then that's not fair this is a difficult... Nah because it's too late in the season if
[18:53.300 -> 18:57.200] they had done that before the August break it still would have been exciting
[18:57.200 -> 19:00.000] but it would be exciting but realistically it's still not fair
[19:00.000 -> 19:03.000] because it's what after I said that I realized that like it's not fair on the
[19:03.000 -> 19:07.920] drivers. It affects the rest of the teams as well like they can't just still get to stay up there
[19:07.920 -> 19:12.640] when everyone else is spending the same amount of money like if 145 million is a
[19:12.640 -> 19:16.000] lot of money and if if nine teams are able to stay under that and one isn't
[19:16.000 -> 19:21.320] you do have to penalize that one team it is as simple as that I have no idea how
[19:21.320 -> 19:26.080] they're gonna handle it. If it was earlier on in the season, then they could have done stuff like
[19:26.080 -> 19:28.280] removed one of their engine changes,
[19:29.480 -> 19:30.920] taken away one of their engines,
[19:30.920 -> 19:35.160] or they could have removed 7.5 million collectively,
[19:35.160 -> 19:38.440] so 14 million, 15 million from the budget
[19:38.440 -> 19:39.840] and say, you gotta do the rest of the year
[19:39.840 -> 19:41.400] with 15 million less this year.
[19:42.440 -> 19:43.800] Yeah, I reckon last year, like,
[19:43.800 -> 19:45.440] they just got carried away. Like, they hadn't won for a while, Red Bull, and they Yeah, I reckon last year, like they just got carried away.
[19:45.440 -> 19:47.840] Like they hadn't won for a while, Red Bull.
[19:47.840 -> 19:49.400] And they probably, they'd been competing,
[19:49.400 -> 19:51.000] Mercedes had won it for so long.
[19:51.000 -> 19:53.640] Red Bull's finally started winning in 2021.
[19:53.640 -> 19:55.320] They were probably just throwing money
[19:55.320 -> 19:56.280] at everything they could.
[19:56.280 -> 19:57.680] What would you want to do?
[19:57.680 -> 19:59.680] What do you think is the best route?
[19:59.680 -> 20:00.520] I'm gonna be honest,
[20:00.520 -> 20:02.600] it's probably just going to end with a fine,
[20:02.600 -> 20:04.920] which is going to be like a shame
[20:04.920 -> 20:08.560] for motorsport fans in a way. I mean's dead that's dead there's no Red Bull
[20:08.560 -> 20:12.000] have all the money in the world you know I love Red Bull as you guys know I'm a
[20:12.000 -> 20:15.520] big Verstappen fan also love Leclerc and everyone else so it doesn't really matter
[20:15.520 -> 20:20.000] I support everyone. Like Checo. Yeah I like Checo. I love them all you know I even love the team
[20:20.000 -> 20:22.840] at Red Bull we have friends there we don't want to see anything shit happen
[20:22.840 -> 20:25.440] but it is one of those, like,
[20:25.440 -> 20:28.240] what decision do you make that is fair across the board?
[20:29.960 -> 20:32.400] I don't think me and you are the two people
[20:32.400 -> 20:36.200] to have the most sensible decision on this.
[20:36.200 -> 20:38.200] I think we have an unbiased opinion.
[20:38.200 -> 20:39.880] Well, we do have a very unbiased opinion.
[20:39.880 -> 20:43.200] That is why I said I would remove points from this year
[20:43.200 -> 20:45.520] because I saw it as the only way to open it up
[20:45.520 -> 20:47.040] for the people that were complaining.
[20:47.040 -> 20:48.480] Because Mercedes aren't,
[20:48.480 -> 20:50.480] Russell isn't that far away.
[20:50.480 -> 20:52.080] Yeah, it is too late, mate.
[20:52.080 -> 20:55.360] But give me another option that's better.
[20:55.360 -> 20:58.280] Next year, what, start them on minus points?
[20:59.240 -> 21:00.120] You could.
[21:00.120 -> 21:02.080] Well, yeah, you can, and that might happen.
[21:02.080 -> 21:03.240] You could do that,
[21:03.240 -> 21:05.440] or like Ross Braun said in the tweet, reverse grid.
[21:06.080 -> 21:12.320] Did they not, uh, yeah, I said to Fab before the episode, there's no news, so
[21:12.320 -> 21:15.600] let's just say Ross Braun said let's have a reverse grid and talk about that.
[21:15.600 -> 21:19.280] Mate, I honestly, to be fair, starting on minus points could be funny.
[21:20.160 -> 21:20.640] I reckon that's what might happen.
[21:20.640 -> 21:24.160] It's not something I thought about, but I just thought you penalise them a different way next year.
[21:22.080 -> 21:23.320] I reckon that's what might happen. But I just thought you penalise them
[21:23.320 -> 21:25.480] a different way next year.
[21:25.480 -> 21:29.640] So you have to change your tyres at least three times
[21:29.640 -> 21:31.480] every track rather than two.
[21:31.480 -> 21:33.920] What would you do if you woke up to a news article
[21:33.920 -> 21:36.240] at 9am tomorrow morning and it's Lewis Hamilton
[21:36.240 -> 21:39.400] eighth world championship, FIA have removed Max Verstappen's
[21:39.400 -> 21:42.120] championship for Red Bull budget cap breach.
[21:42.120 -> 21:42.960] Yeah, it's stupid.
[21:42.960 -> 21:45.400] This is what I've said, it's stupid.
[21:45.400 -> 21:47.280] Would it make more sense than not doing it?
[21:47.280 -> 21:48.920] No one will care.
[21:48.920 -> 21:51.960] No one will care and it will just cause more shit.
[21:51.960 -> 21:54.080] Yeah, it would be unnecessary shit really, wouldn't it?
[21:54.080 -> 21:55.120] That year is gone.
[21:55.120 -> 21:57.640] That year has gone, fuck me, so quickly as well.
[21:57.640 -> 22:01.720] I just want to say, a year has never gone so quickly for me
[22:01.720 -> 22:03.880] since doing Formula One.
[22:03.880 -> 22:08.000] And our whole lives being based- Yeah, me too, my God and our whole lives and our focus being based
[22:08.000 -> 22:09.280] around what we do.
[22:09.280 -> 22:12.760] We seem to have like short bursts of craziness
[22:12.760 -> 22:15.400] and excitement and then we come back to the flat,
[22:15.400 -> 22:17.620] recharge, which feels like a day,
[22:17.620 -> 22:19.240] but sometimes we're here for like a week or a couple
[22:19.240 -> 22:21.320] of weeks and then we do something else.
[22:21.320 -> 22:23.400] But the year is just absolutely flying by.
[22:23.400 -> 22:26.680] This year has gone so quick, that is so true. It's just absolutely flying. Love it has gone so quick that is so true it's just absolutely flying
[22:26.680 -> 22:29.120] love it I mean maybe going to a grand
[22:29.120 -> 22:32.080] prix soon yeah we do we may sorry a lot
[22:32.080 -> 22:34.040] of money that I'm rent you people keep
[22:34.040 -> 22:35.480] asking us if we pay Brent yet the
[22:35.480 -> 22:44.660] answers no yeah no we haven't I was
[22:44.660 -> 22:47.400] trying to think of something funny to say there but no we haven't paid fucking rent.
[22:47.400 -> 22:49.400] Of course we haven't, we haven't got any money.
[22:49.400 -> 22:50.800] It's alright, we'll make some soon.
[22:50.800 -> 22:55.000] Everyone just gotta rate the podcast 5 stars and everything will be fine.
[22:55.000 -> 22:59.120] Jake, what are you most excited for in the latter half of this year?
[22:59.120 -> 23:03.600] In the last like three months that we have left, what are you most looking forward to
[23:03.600 -> 23:05.060] that we can left, what are you most looking forward to? We can talk about.
[23:06.280 -> 23:09.080] The fact that I'm sitting here
[23:09.080 -> 23:10.840] and I've just filmed a video saying,
[23:10.840 -> 23:13.120] oh my God, there's a Formula One driver coming to our flat
[23:13.120 -> 23:14.800] and gonna be sat on our sofa.
[23:14.800 -> 23:16.120] But we're very aware of the fact
[23:16.120 -> 23:19.880] that we have like four or five other crazy guests as well.
[23:19.880 -> 23:21.800] Like when we first started doing this,
[23:21.800 -> 23:24.000] we'd book a guest and it'd be like a month away
[23:24.000 -> 23:25.720] and we'd be like buzzing through it.
[23:25.720 -> 23:27.560] But now we have people coming to us.
[23:27.560 -> 23:28.400] We're literally littered.
[23:28.400 -> 23:29.840] The last night, the guy that messaged me,
[23:29.840 -> 23:31.040] I won't want to say a name, but like,
[23:31.040 -> 23:31.880] this is like midnight.
[23:31.880 -> 23:32.720] Mega.
[23:32.720 -> 23:34.640] Mega, absolutely ridiculous.
[23:34.640 -> 23:36.320] Like we're pulling drivers, all sorts.
[23:36.320 -> 23:39.800] So I think it's just a great time to be part of the journey.
[23:39.800 -> 23:41.240] You're most excited for the guests.
[23:41.240 -> 23:42.640] I'm more excited.
[23:42.640 -> 23:49.120] I feel like our show actually fits better out of the races, like now when there's a gap in races because we're not
[23:49.120 -> 23:52.400] technical enough. Well this is what I was about to say, the thing that I'm most
[23:52.400 -> 23:55.520] excited for, believe it or not, this sounds over it sounds, but it's the break.
[23:55.520 -> 23:59.300] Yeah just fill in the gap. It's the break because, and I'm gonna miss F1 so much,
[23:59.300 -> 24:03.840] but I can't wait to see what we can do in the gap when we have access to people
[24:03.840 -> 24:05.200] and they're not racing every week.
[24:05.200 -> 24:06.600] I think it's because we'll have access.
[24:06.600 -> 24:07.520] We'll be able to drive,
[24:07.520 -> 24:08.560] because you know what me and you are like,
[24:08.560 -> 24:10.160] we'll just drive anywhere to make it happen.
[24:10.160 -> 24:12.880] And if everyone's at home,
[24:12.880 -> 24:15.600] like if a driver's like, I'm in France, I'm here,
[24:15.600 -> 24:17.240] we'll be like, okay, we can get there tomorrow.
[24:17.240 -> 24:19.800] And we actually would just drive there to do it.
[24:19.800 -> 24:21.000] And we'd actually be able to do that.
[24:21.000 -> 24:22.740] So I'm most excited for that.
[24:24.560 -> 24:25.760] I was just, I'm gonna
[24:25.760 -> 24:29.960] quickly just go back to that budget cap thing. I get why people love to know
[24:29.960 -> 24:32.720] about all this because it's like their business and everyone deserves to know.
[24:32.720 -> 24:36.480] It's the same as like in football transfers, the money between teams. But do
[24:36.480 -> 24:39.960] you wonder whether there's some stuff like this that should be kept private?
[24:39.960 -> 24:46.620] Not so it can be hidden, but just so like it can be more controlled or do you think it should be public?
[24:46.620 -> 24:48.900] I think it's less controlled if it's private
[24:48.900 -> 24:55.720] I just find it quite like from a football fan point of view in football like you don't really get much
[24:55.920 -> 24:57.760] oversight from the
[24:57.760 -> 25:02.500] FA if they make a big call even like in the VAR room when they make a big call in a game you get the
[25:02.500 -> 25:08.120] Decision back, but you don't really see like why or how. But in F1 they release the statement, like every
[25:08.120 -> 25:12.500] time they release the actual... Do you not get like investigations afterwards into
[25:12.500 -> 25:17.080] dodgy VAR decisions? Not really, no. Once the whistle's gone at the end of the game that's it really. I mean the FA do
[25:17.080 -> 25:20.920] investigate some stuff but like with what I mean is like with Formula One
[25:20.920 -> 25:25.120] they tweet the actual you know like the letter and it says like driver this
[25:25.120 -> 25:27.040] and all that and they proper get into it
[25:27.040 -> 25:30.200] and they publicize all the business behind it.
[25:30.200 -> 25:31.720] To be fair, it'd probably be a shit show
[25:31.720 -> 25:33.600] if they didn't publicize the budget stuff.
[25:33.600 -> 25:35.440] I guess the budget, the money's different
[25:35.440 -> 25:37.600] because with football, you're just purely working
[25:37.600 -> 25:40.840] with humans and unless you're putting fucking rockets
[25:40.840 -> 25:44.200] on their boots, you can't really change.
[25:44.200 -> 25:46.280] You can train them to be better.
[25:46.280 -> 25:48.600] Like it'd be, I suppose it'd be the same with like doping.
[25:48.600 -> 25:51.800] Like if there was a team that was doping in football
[25:51.800 -> 25:54.960] and all these players could sprint ridiculously fast,
[25:54.960 -> 25:57.640] that would spread like wildfire.
[25:57.640 -> 25:58.480] That'd go crazy.
[25:58.480 -> 26:00.960] But so I just see this budget cap thing
[26:00.960 -> 26:02.360] as like doping for cars.
[26:02.360 -> 26:04.680] They're just like, they're putting more into their car
[26:04.680 -> 26:05.240] than they should.
[26:05.240 -> 26:08.400] So should we agree that if they prove the money spent
[26:08.400 -> 26:10.840] wasn't on the car and had nothing to do
[26:10.840 -> 26:12.840] with the actual car performance,
[26:12.840 -> 26:15.180] they shouldn't lose points?
[26:15.180 -> 26:19.080] No, because then you can also spend money on the factory
[26:19.080 -> 26:20.480] and the development of the car.
[26:20.480 -> 26:23.280] If you're not, like spending it directly
[26:23.280 -> 26:26.640] on the car and the parts, you could be, do you know what I mean?
[26:26.640 -> 26:28.520] Well, maybe that's how they've gone over.
[26:28.520 -> 26:29.360] That could be it.
[26:29.360 -> 26:31.120] Maybe like they thought what they were doing
[26:31.120 -> 26:34.440] wouldn't be in the budget cap, but it is, kind of thing.
[26:35.320 -> 26:36.920] It'd be really interesting to find out.
[26:36.920 -> 26:38.680] If there's anyone listening who's been listening
[26:38.680 -> 26:40.440] to this thinking these guys don't have a fucking clue,
[26:40.440 -> 26:41.520] don't worry, we know.
[26:41.520 -> 26:44.400] What was really interesting to me was going to Sauber,
[26:44.400 -> 26:46.200] going to the Alfa Romeo factory in Switzerland
[26:46.200 -> 26:47.960] and seeing for the first time that they use
[26:47.960 -> 26:49.760] the three quarter size cars in a wind tunnel.
[26:49.760 -> 26:51.320] Their wind tunnel is massive, by the way.
[26:51.320 -> 26:54.000] It's huge, but why do they use such a small car
[26:54.000 -> 26:55.300] when they've got that size wind tunnel?
[26:55.300 -> 26:56.840] I don't know, I've never understood that.
[26:56.840 -> 26:59.560] Surely, I've always said to get an accurate reflection,
[26:59.560 -> 27:01.840] surely you'd have to use the real car.
[27:01.840 -> 27:04.240] But apparently they build it exactly the same.
[27:04.240 -> 27:08.920] So maybe Red Bull have just made a massive wind tunnel and put a full-size F1 car in
[27:08.920 -> 27:09.920] there.
[27:09.920 -> 27:10.920] I guess we just have to wait and see.
[27:10.920 -> 27:13.540] Until it all comes out, no one's going to know.
[27:13.540 -> 27:17.160] No one has any idea what penalties they're going to get.
[27:17.160 -> 27:20.120] But yeah, good spot on the Twitter there with the Mercedes fans.
[27:20.120 -> 27:21.960] That was a good little dilemma we've had there.
[27:21.960 -> 27:22.960] That was really good.
[27:22.960 -> 27:26.800] See, you don't need a lot of information to get the Pit Stop Boys talking for a whole heap of time.
[27:26.800 -> 27:28.480] No, what else you got for me?
[27:28.480 -> 27:32.640] Martin Brundle agrees with one of your statements
[27:32.640 -> 27:35.280] that you said, how we've just spoken about it,
[27:35.280 -> 27:38.640] stripping Max Verstappen of the 2021 crown.
[27:38.640 -> 27:41.760] Brundle seems to agree that it is possible.
[27:41.760 -> 27:43.560] Okay, very nice.
[27:43.560 -> 27:45.760] I wanted to get your thoughts, this is something that
[27:45.760 -> 27:51.760] we've spoken about a fair bit since it's come out, but I would like to know your
[27:51.760 -> 27:59.520] opinion on whether you think this year out for Riccardo, could you see him
[27:59.520 -> 28:05.000] coming back? Do you honestly think that taking a year out from a sport
[28:05.360 -> 28:06.560] where there are so many people
[28:06.560 -> 28:08.200] that are trying to get into it,
[28:08.200 -> 28:11.040] do you think he is going to have a better opportunity
[28:11.040 -> 28:12.900] when he comes back?
[28:12.900 -> 28:14.740] I love Daniel Ricciardo.
[28:14.740 -> 28:16.940] I want him on the pod more than anything.
[28:16.940 -> 28:19.260] And I'd love to see him staying on the grid,
[28:19.260 -> 28:20.900] but I just have to be completely honest.
[28:20.900 -> 28:24.400] Like I really don't think he'll race in Formula One again.
[28:24.400 -> 28:26.240] Like you've got to be like proper. You've really got't think you're racing Formula One again. You've got to be
[28:26.240 -> 28:30.440] proper, you've really got to think about this, right? The sport is getting younger. Teams
[28:30.440 -> 28:35.080] want to take younger drivers, it's valuable to the team, you have them for longer, you
[28:35.080 -> 28:38.760] can put them on longer contracts. You have a younger driver that's good, they're probably
[28:38.760 -> 28:43.880] easier to train, teach new things. That also helps when it's a new car, new regulation,
[28:43.880 -> 28:45.000] because everyone's learning.
[28:45.000 -> 28:46.400] It doesn't matter if you're Lewis Hamilton
[28:46.400 -> 28:47.400] or George Russell,
[28:47.400 -> 28:49.800] you both got to learn the new 2022 car,
[28:49.800 -> 28:51.040] which is, as you've seen,
[28:51.040 -> 28:52.840] that's why George Russell's done so well,
[28:52.840 -> 28:54.840] compared to Hamilton, just adjusted quicker.
[28:54.840 -> 28:57.000] Well, we know, we know firsthand
[28:57.000 -> 28:58.920] that there are so many up and comers
[28:58.920 -> 29:01.320] that are like raring to get into the sport.
[29:01.320 -> 29:02.680] And these kids are fucking good.
[29:02.680 -> 29:04.760] Yeah, there's some amazing names coming in.
[29:04.760 -> 29:06.560] A lot of people want the sport. And these kids are fucking good. Yeah, there's some amazing names coming in. A lot of people want the seats.
[29:06.560 -> 29:11.000] I just genuinely don't see what a year out is gonna do.
[29:11.000 -> 29:13.480] Will Buxton said a lot about it and he tweeted a lot
[29:13.480 -> 29:15.480] and was like, he's worried that this is it for Daniel
[29:15.480 -> 29:18.320] because you take a year out,
[29:18.320 -> 29:21.840] one of the top teams is, he's a great driver,
[29:21.840 -> 29:24.240] but he is not gonna get back in a top car.
[29:24.240 -> 29:25.760] Well, yeah. I very much doubt.
[29:25.760 -> 29:30.160] That's what I think. I slightly disagree with the fact that he probably won't come back.
[29:30.160 -> 29:30.960] I do think there's a chance.
[29:30.960 -> 29:32.080] Where will he come back?
[29:32.080 -> 29:34.640] Well, I do think he could come back for a lower level team.
[29:35.280 -> 29:38.000] Yeah, but I don't think he'll want to because he's leaving.
[29:38.000 -> 29:40.000] Well, he's didn't. It's not his choice.
[29:40.000 -> 29:45.640] I think he'll want to. I think he will. I think he's gonna enjoy a year out on his farm
[29:45.640 -> 29:49.000] with his family, playing with horses, playing with chickens,
[29:49.000 -> 29:50.120] but he's gonna miss it.
[29:50.120 -> 29:52.180] There's a statement here where he said
[29:52.180 -> 29:53.200] he had a little bit of time out.
[29:53.200 -> 29:54.440] He went back home during the break
[29:54.440 -> 29:55.680] and then he came back into the garage
[29:55.680 -> 29:58.080] and he saw his race engineer and he felt like he missed him.
[29:58.080 -> 29:59.760] And that was after a short period of time.
[29:59.760 -> 30:01.520] How is this guy gonna feel
[30:01.520 -> 30:07.680] who has spent the majority of his adult life in Formula 1? How is he gonna feel after 12 months of not doing it? Of course
[30:07.680 -> 30:10.120] it's gonna be a massive change he's gonna hate it he's gonna want to be back
[30:10.120 -> 30:14.600] on track of course so I can see him taking a seat at someone like Williams
[30:14.600 -> 30:18.180] but we need to remove ourselves from a situation just for a little bit and look
[30:18.180 -> 30:22.880] at it from the outside like and put the straight facts are like I know this
[30:22.880 -> 30:25.800] sounds shit but this year was a new regulation.
[30:25.800 -> 30:27.160] He has struggled with it.
[30:27.160 -> 30:28.480] He has done bad.
[30:28.480 -> 30:30.560] He has lost his seat at McLaren because of it.
[30:30.560 -> 30:31.880] Like they're replacing him.
[30:31.880 -> 30:33.720] He hasn't left, like he left Red Bull.
[30:33.720 -> 30:36.000] He's actually been replaced.
[30:36.000 -> 30:38.960] If he's been replaced because he can't drive the new car,
[30:38.960 -> 30:41.960] why in a year's time without any practice time?
[30:41.960 -> 30:43.160] Because he's not a young driver.
[30:43.160 -> 30:44.720] So even if he was a reserve driver
[30:44.720 -> 30:46.600] at one of the other teams on the grid he wouldn't get that
[30:46.600 -> 30:50.440] practice FP1 so he will not drive I don't think he'd be a reserve driver
[30:50.440 -> 30:53.200] though he would just come back like a Hulkenberg or a Kevin Magnuson
[30:53.200 -> 30:58.160] he won't be he will not step foot in another f1 car after this after the last
[30:58.160 -> 31:01.800] race this season unless he is signed again he's not gonna get any practice
[31:01.800 -> 31:06.600] like he could stay fit but he's still not gonna be any better in that car than he was then because he can't
[31:06.600 -> 31:11.540] practice in it maybe he will be but how it's not all about practice how how would
[31:11.540 -> 31:14.800] he get better in that car about driving that car because he needs a year out to
[31:14.800 -> 31:18.480] clear his head I'm with that I'm with that I see what you are because no no
[31:18.480 -> 31:23.360] I'm with you he needs to get away make mate it's all a mental game but I agree
[31:23.360 -> 31:29.440] agree he hasn't adjusted to the car very well, but this guy has fucking struggled with this shit that's been going on a lot.
[31:29.440 -> 31:32.800] He could be doing better than he is. He needs to refresh, surely that's happened in football,
[31:32.800 -> 31:36.000] surely there's been football players who were amazing, they haven't done very well, they
[31:36.000 -> 31:38.960] took some time out of the way, cleared their head, sorted their shit out, came back better
[31:38.960 -> 31:42.480] than ever. You can't do that in football though. There's sometimes two games a week, you just
[31:42.480 -> 31:45.320] get put on the bench and you might be transferred out in January or summer,
[31:45.320 -> 31:46.160] you get sold.
[31:46.160 -> 31:47.000] Like it's very different.
[31:47.000 -> 31:49.840] And you've also got to think there's so many teams,
[31:49.840 -> 31:51.800] different leagues, football, you actually can just bounce
[31:51.800 -> 31:54.000] bound, bounce back, back, you know, you can.
[31:54.000 -> 31:55.480] In Formula One, you can't.
[31:55.480 -> 31:58.040] We were talking about earlier, there's 20 drivers.
[31:58.040 -> 31:59.400] That's it.
[31:59.400 -> 32:01.560] Everyone in the lower leagues,
[32:01.560 -> 32:04.160] everything wants to be one of them 20 drivers.
[32:04.160 -> 32:07.100] He is one of the 20 drivers, he loses it,
[32:07.100 -> 32:08.940] and now he's got to get back in
[32:08.940 -> 32:11.880] whilst all these young, hungry,
[32:11.880 -> 32:13.600] trying to prove themselves drivers
[32:13.600 -> 32:15.020] are going to want them seats just as much.
[32:15.020 -> 32:16.380] But he hasn't just lost his seat
[32:16.380 -> 32:18.480] because he's not good enough.
[32:18.480 -> 32:20.300] That's not, that isn't the case.
[32:20.300 -> 32:21.500] Why has he lost his seat then?
[32:21.500 -> 32:23.700] Because McLaren don't want him.
[32:23.700 -> 32:24.740] Why don't they want him?
[32:24.740 -> 32:26.480] But it's not as if other teams haven't offered him seats.
[32:26.480 -> 32:27.680] We know they have.
[32:27.680 -> 32:29.680] The opportunity was there for him to join another team.
[32:30.240 -> 32:32.320] Daniel Ricciardo still isn't a bad driver.
[32:32.320 -> 32:34.880] He just came fucking, what, eighth in Japan?
[32:34.880 -> 32:36.000] I don't know where he came.
[32:36.000 -> 32:36.800] Yeah, he just didn't want to-
[32:36.800 -> 32:38.000] He's not finishing last.
[32:38.000 -> 32:41.600] No, we know he left because he didn't want to drive for a team that was finishing bottom half.
[32:41.600 -> 32:42.720] He wants to compete for wins.
[32:42.720 -> 32:43.280] I get that.
[32:43.280 -> 32:45.620] Yeah, and we know there was rumours for other teams to have him. So mate, honestly, I could see a team like was finishing bottom off. He wants to compete for wins. I get that. Yeah, and we know there was rumors for other teams to have him.
[32:45.620 -> 32:48.360] So mate, honestly, I could see a team like Williams
[32:48.360 -> 32:50.320] offering him a deal next year.
[32:50.320 -> 32:51.320] Okay.
[32:51.320 -> 32:53.180] Well, we don't know who's going to sit in
[32:53.180 -> 32:54.020] for Williams at the moment.
[32:54.020 -> 32:55.880] We know it's Albon and we don't know.
[32:55.880 -> 32:58.040] It could be Logan Sargent.
[32:58.040 -> 33:00.000] It could even be a ridiculous U-turn.
[33:00.000 -> 33:02.600] Like Danny Rick had a great race the other day.
[33:02.600 -> 33:03.440] No, not in Japan.
[33:03.440 -> 33:05.160] The one before that, he came fifth, didn't he?
[33:05.160 -> 33:06.200] Or sixth.
[33:06.200 -> 33:07.920] Imagine he goes and has an amazing finish
[33:07.920 -> 33:09.560] and then at the end, Williams are like, we won it.
[33:09.560 -> 33:10.400] You know, there's probably not gonna be a U-turn.
[33:10.400 -> 33:11.240] Was it Singapore?
[33:11.240 -> 33:12.400] It was Singapore, wasn't it?
[33:12.400 -> 33:13.240] Because of all the crashes.
[33:13.240 -> 33:14.480] There's probably not gonna be a U-turn.
[33:14.480 -> 33:16.240] Like, I don't want to put fake news out there,
[33:16.240 -> 33:18.560] but like, I love Danny.
[33:18.560 -> 33:20.720] Everything that we say is fucking fake news.
[33:20.720 -> 33:24.040] I like agree with you, but disagree with you as well.
[33:24.040 -> 33:26.200] Like, I'm with you, he needs to clear his head,
[33:26.200 -> 33:29.440] but I just really struggle to see any way back
[33:29.440 -> 33:33.600] after a year out of such a competitive sport.
[33:33.600 -> 33:34.780] I'd love to see him back.
[33:34.780 -> 33:36.280] I hope it happens, but.
[33:36.280 -> 33:39.560] Don't forget, the guy just isn't a part of Formula One
[33:39.560 -> 33:40.400] on the grid.
[33:40.400 -> 33:44.120] He's also a big face of Formula One off the grid.
[33:44.120 -> 33:45.720] He's a great advocate for the sport.
[33:45.720 -> 33:49.120] He's a decent human being who is good.
[33:49.120 -> 33:49.960] He's a very decent human being.
[33:49.960 -> 33:51.520] He's good at being on camera.
[33:51.520 -> 33:53.200] He's good at lifting spirits.
[33:53.200 -> 33:56.420] Like he's a good face for Formula One,
[33:56.420 -> 33:57.960] just to represent the sport.
[33:57.960 -> 34:00.660] So for that reason alone, he's like a Lewis Hamilton.
[34:01.840 -> 34:03.280] That's cool.
[34:04.880 -> 34:07.320] Daniel Ricciardo is great, but he doesn't compare to Lewis Hamilton.
[34:07.320 -> 34:08.320] I'm sorry.
[34:08.320 -> 34:10.160] He's not even won one world championship.
[34:10.160 -> 34:13.720] Yeah, maybe not race skills, but like as just being a good face.
[34:13.720 -> 34:14.720] Oh yeah.
[34:14.720 -> 34:15.720] He's one of the best ever.
[34:15.720 -> 34:17.800] One of the most entertaining, lovely, funny people.
[34:17.800 -> 34:19.320] Like I wish the best for him.
[34:19.320 -> 34:21.280] I just, you asked me for my honest opinion.
[34:21.280 -> 34:25.160] Yeah, there's many routes, which is what makes this discussion so exciting.
[34:25.160 -> 34:26.440] We'd love to know what you guys think.
[34:26.440 -> 34:28.560] Once again, our Instagram is at pitstop.
[34:28.560 -> 34:30.160] Give it a follow.
[34:30.160 -> 34:31.680] I hope you've enjoyed the episode, guys.
[34:31.680 -> 34:32.520] Oh, we ending it?
[34:32.520 -> 34:33.360] I suppose we probably should,
[34:33.360 -> 34:34.720] because we've only got three hours till midnight.
[34:34.720 -> 34:35.640] This has got to get out.
[34:35.640 -> 34:37.240] We've got to set up the whole flat.
[34:37.240 -> 34:39.000] It's quite funny, because we just came into this pod
[34:39.000 -> 34:40.920] with actually really nothing to even talk about.
[34:40.920 -> 34:43.640] And we've just chatted for 35 minutes, my friend.
[34:43.640 -> 34:45.100] Yeah, well, it is- That's the beauty of off the cuff conversation. I forgot we've even gotatted for 35 minutes my friend yeah well that's
[34:45.100 -> 34:49.900] the beauty of off-the-cuff conversation. I forgot we've even got a pod because I was so stressed and overthinking about
[34:49.900 -> 34:52.960] tomorrow like putting together some questions I do think we've got some of
[34:52.960 -> 34:58.080] the best questions we've ever had for a pod like we've we don't normally
[34:58.080 -> 35:02.480] research and we haven't really like researched him but we've just found out
[35:02.480 -> 35:05.880] a load of funny stuff about the guest which is
[35:05.880 -> 35:12.600] gonna be the episode. We may or may not know some people who know him. Yeah. Personally-ish.
[35:12.600 -> 35:18.800] But quite personally. We've managed to pull some information and so let's just see how
[35:18.800 -> 35:23.640] tomorrow goes. Me and Jake are getting up at 8 a.m. we're going for a run. Yeah we are.
[35:23.640 -> 35:25.540] I've set my alarm, haven't I?
[35:25.540 -> 35:26.380] I bought a song.
[35:26.380 -> 35:27.360] Yeah, what song did you buy?
[35:27.360 -> 35:28.480] So, pretend you're my alarm.
[35:28.480 -> 35:29.800] One, two, three.
[35:29.800 -> 35:34.800] Do you remember the 21st night of September?
[35:35.120 -> 35:36.240] Imagine me waking up.
[35:36.240 -> 35:38.600] I've been chasing my life away.
[35:38.600 -> 35:40.600] Springing out of bed.
[35:40.600 -> 35:42.680] Da da da, da da da.
[35:42.680 -> 35:44.920] You have to come in my room though, when you wake up.
[35:44.920 -> 35:46.560] Bring the phone in my room, and I'll fucking come out of bed as well. You need to set your my room though when you wake up, bring the phone in my room and I'll
[35:46.560 -> 35:48.080] fucking come out of bed as well.
[35:48.080 -> 35:51.920] You need to set your song as the same, same tune and they'd both go at exactly the same
[35:51.920 -> 35:52.920] time.
[35:52.920 -> 35:53.920] Oh my god, that's such a good idea.
[35:53.920 -> 35:54.920] That would be great.
[35:54.920 -> 35:56.320] I wanted Viva Las Vegas by Elvis Presley.
[35:56.320 -> 35:57.320] I love that as well.
[35:57.320 -> 35:58.320] I love that as well.
[35:58.320 -> 35:59.320] I love it.
[35:59.320 -> 36:00.320] I'm gonna sip my song.
[36:00.320 -> 36:04.160] Before we end the podcast, hang on, hang on.
[36:04.160 -> 36:05.120] Oh, hang on.
[36:05.120 -> 36:06.400] I need to ask you something.
[36:06.400 -> 36:07.240] Oh.
[36:07.240 -> 36:09.880] You asked me what am I most excited for for us this year.
[36:09.880 -> 36:12.080] What are you most excited for for the rest of this year?
[36:12.080 -> 36:12.920] The gap.
[36:12.920 -> 36:14.120] I said it, the gap.
[36:14.120 -> 36:17.000] The gap between the last race
[36:17.000 -> 36:19.040] and the first race of next season, baby,
[36:19.040 -> 36:20.880] because of all the stuff that we can cram in.
[36:20.880 -> 36:23.120] It's quite a weird one where a lot of Formula One pages
[36:23.120 -> 36:25.140] or shows or anything
[36:25.140 -> 36:29.160] We'll probably look at that gap like we're gonna take a break. Oh shit. What do we do?
[36:29.160 -> 36:32.600] I on because because we get a guess we're not like that where we want it
[36:32.600 -> 36:39.360] Did you know the fucking tire degradation from Japan was 33% lower than it was last year like we don't give a fuck
[36:41.040 -> 36:43.040] Crazy shit
[36:43.040 -> 36:45.240] We just love traveling around.
[36:45.240 -> 36:47.080] It's just annoying we have to do it about cars all the time.
[36:47.080 -> 36:49.240] It's annoying we haven't made much money yet.
[36:49.240 -> 36:50.080] Yeah, no it is.
[36:50.080 -> 36:52.080] But once the money got coming in,
[36:52.080 -> 36:54.440] we're gonna start spending it.
[36:54.440 -> 36:55.480] As soon as we get paid,
[36:55.480 -> 36:57.960] I'm gonna change a load of it up into one pound coins
[36:57.960 -> 36:59.680] and shower them all over you.
[36:59.680 -> 37:02.440] I was about to say all the money we make,
[37:02.440 -> 37:03.280] we invest back into a pod,
[37:03.280 -> 37:07.240] and you say you're gonna shower me in one pound coins? I'm gonna print all the money out, I'm gonna get rid
[37:07.240 -> 37:10.160] of my mattress. Sounds quite painful actually. I'm gonna get rid of my mattress and sleep
[37:10.160 -> 37:14.960] with all the money. And stuff it with money. Guys, thank you so much for tuning in to the
[37:14.960 -> 37:20.640] Pit Stop Podcast. Yeah, I hope you enjoyed this little 36 minute quick, fun, snappy little
[37:20.640 -> 37:27.700] podcast. We're filming with a Formula One driver today. Pretty crazy, our first ever F1 driver in the flat.
[37:27.700 -> 37:30.640] It's been like eight months, not even that,
[37:30.640 -> 37:33.060] and we've managed to pull someone off TV
[37:33.060 -> 37:34.000] to sit in front of us.
[37:34.000 -> 37:35.960] Absolutely madness, it's all thanks to you guys.
[37:35.960 -> 37:38.680] The episode with him will be out at the end of the month,
[37:38.680 -> 37:39.960] one of our biggest episodes ever.
[37:39.960 -> 37:41.060] Can't wait for you to see it.
[37:41.060 -> 37:43.540] Just to spill some small beans before we leave,
[37:43.540 -> 37:46.600] we are working on a guest from the TV that
[37:46.600 -> 37:53.600] I know all of you know. He is the king of the Formula One paddock area and pit lane,
[37:53.600 -> 37:55.600] I may say. Am I giving too much away?
[37:55.600 -> 37:56.600] I think you might!
[37:56.600 -> 37:57.600] But we can't wait!
[37:57.600 -> 38:00.600] I think... I wonder who it is!
[38:00.600 -> 38:05.800] We'll just have to wait and see. Thank you very much for listening to the Pit Stop Podcast.
