[01:05.920 -> 01:09.000] know, we can put them in for a pit or we can have another glass of wine.

[01:44.600 -> 01:48.000] be the sickest little YouTube video coming out of the whole day that we had.
[01:48.000 -> 01:48.720] It was awesome.
[01:48.720 -> 01:50.080] It was great to see Joshua again.
[01:50.080 -> 01:53.440] Joshua, dude, your mum and dad, absolute legends.
[01:53.440 -> 01:54.760] Your brothers as well.
[01:54.760 -> 01:55.640] It's just a great day.
[01:55.640 -> 01:57.000] And congratulations, man.
[01:57.000 -> 02:02.320] It's so amazing to be a part of something when there's just such a lovely family, such a lovely person, such a great driver.
[02:02.320 -> 02:04.360] So excited to see where his career goes.
[02:04.360 -> 02:05.340] So we hope you love that.
[02:05.340 -> 02:08.740] And he gave us the tires off of his go-kart.
[02:08.740 -> 02:10.740] The go-kart that he won the national championship with.
[02:10.740 -> 02:13.460] We've got a blue bag sat in front of us
[02:13.460 -> 02:15.500] with four worn tires on.
[02:15.500 -> 02:17.020] The ones he won the championship with,
[02:17.020 -> 02:18.540] they're going in the background.
[02:18.540 -> 02:20.520] How cool is that?
[02:20.520 -> 02:23.140] Yeah, so now's probably a good time to say that,
[02:23.140 -> 02:25.240] like any other guests that we have coming on our pod
[02:25.240 -> 02:29.320] We've got Callum the Red Bull technician. We've got his Costa
[02:31.140 -> 02:35.880] Callum you left your Costa cup on the floor. So obviously we're gonna keep it in our background now. That's that's
[02:37.320 -> 02:43.800] Thanks for that bro. And now we've got begin based tires, but Michael and Brad you gave us shit. Yeah
[02:44.120 -> 02:46.000] Yeah, I'm around in Zambor this weekend,
[02:46.000 -> 02:48.000] so Michael, Brad, if you don't give us anything,
[02:48.000 -> 02:50.000] then I see how it is.
[02:50.000 -> 02:52.000] I see where our friendship lies.
[02:52.000 -> 02:54.000] I mean, I wouldn't mind a full-size Formula One wheel,
[02:54.000 -> 02:56.000] but I have no idea how we're going to get that back.
[02:56.000 -> 02:58.000] I'm sure someone can sort it out.
[02:58.000 -> 03:00.000] Can anyone listen in? Sort it out.
[03:01.000 -> 03:03.000] We just had the Belgian Grand Prix.
[03:03.000 -> 03:04.000] It was a bit of a weird one today,
[03:04.000 -> 03:05.740] because we've been out all day.
[03:05.740 -> 03:06.720] I'm really sunburned.
[03:06.720 -> 03:09.120] We weren't able to watch the race how we normally would.
[03:09.120 -> 03:10.480] We watched the highlights.
[03:10.480 -> 03:12.020] We've just caught up completely.
[03:12.020 -> 03:13.420] But we, we literally, we had,
[03:13.420 -> 03:15.420] I deleted the F1 app from my phone
[03:15.420 -> 03:17.020] and I haven't been on Instagram all day
[03:17.020 -> 03:18.460] because I didn't want to find out anything.
[03:18.460 -> 03:20.540] And then we got all these sick pictures of Joshua.
[03:20.540 -> 03:21.380] Yeah.
[03:21.380 -> 03:22.200] And I was like, yeah,
[03:22.200 -> 03:23.500] I'm going to put one up on Instagram right now.
[03:23.500 -> 03:25.440] We're sat in the car and the first thing I see,
[03:25.440 -> 03:26.840] oh, Max Verstappen's a winner.
[03:26.840 -> 03:28.760] Whoop-de-doo, ruins everything.
[03:28.760 -> 03:30.480] It was bloody mech, it was F1 mech, wasn't it?
[03:30.480 -> 03:32.560] I went straight on and his picture comes straight up
[03:32.560 -> 03:34.880] and I was just, I looked at it and I thought,
[03:34.880 -> 03:37.080] how has Verstappen won that race?
[03:37.080 -> 03:39.800] And then we started watching the highlights.
[03:39.800 -> 03:42.600] I still don't really know.
[03:42.600 -> 03:44.320] It's hard to judge it from the highlights.
[03:44.320 -> 03:46.440] Like, when you don't watch the whole race,
[03:46.440 -> 03:47.520] it's hard to really wrap your head
[03:47.520 -> 03:48.560] around everything that happened.
[03:48.560 -> 03:50.160] Yeah, if you go back right to the beginning,
[03:50.160 -> 03:52.040] first lap, you had Hamilton and Alonso,
[03:52.040 -> 03:53.600] and obviously Hamilton has come out now
[03:53.600 -> 03:54.940] and said that it was his fault.
[03:54.940 -> 03:56.920] So Hamilton has apologized and-
[03:56.920 -> 03:58.040] Clearly was anyway.
[03:58.040 -> 03:58.880] Yeah.
[03:58.880 -> 04:01.920] Hamilton and Alonso, former teammates.
[04:01.920 -> 04:03.420] Mate, the most impressive thing about that
[04:03.420 -> 04:06.200] was how when Hamilton starts coming back on the track and Alonso's their former teammates. Mate, the most impressive thing about that was how when Hamilton starts coming back on the track
[04:06.200 -> 04:07.760] and Alonso's going straight for him
[04:07.760 -> 04:10.800] and you just see him quickly turn the steering wheel,
[04:10.800 -> 04:12.320] that's a World Championship driving,
[04:12.320 -> 04:14.000] bit of driving right there to me.
[04:14.000 -> 04:16.400] Well, how did you think Alonso got on today then?
[04:16.400 -> 04:17.800] Yeah, did fairly well.
[04:17.800 -> 04:19.440] Are you really happy that he came fifth?
[04:19.440 -> 04:21.400] Considering he's in an Alpine, he did good.
[04:21.400 -> 04:22.640] Yeah, Ocon had a great race as well.
[04:22.640 -> 04:24.040] One of my favorite things in the highlights
[04:24.040 -> 04:26.460] when he took them two cars in the same corner.
[04:26.460 -> 04:27.960] Yeah, well, one of my favorite ones-
[04:27.960 -> 04:28.800] Gasly and Vettel it was.
[04:28.800 -> 04:31.280] Is when you had Gasly and Vettel, yeah, that's the same one.
[04:31.280 -> 04:34.880] And you see Vettel coming down the straight, right,
[04:34.880 -> 04:36.720] in the middle, and you just see these two cars
[04:36.720 -> 04:38.640] preying on him from behind.
[04:38.640 -> 04:41.040] And they both put the same move on him at the same time,
[04:41.040 -> 04:42.680] and that, I think, is beautiful.
[04:42.680 -> 04:44.280] Yeah, it was a beautiful race.
[04:44.280 -> 04:45.800] It's a shame we didn't get to watch the whole thing,
[04:45.800 -> 04:47.700] but the highlights were more than good enough.
[04:47.700 -> 04:52.100] Max Verstappen looks absolutely ridiculous
[04:52.100 -> 04:55.000] and that Red Bull looks like it's not going to be caught.
[04:55.000 -> 04:56.700] Let's just be honest, at this point in the season,
[04:56.700 -> 04:59.300] we might as well admit Max Verstappen is champion.
[04:59.300 -> 05:00.400] Red Bull have won.
[05:00.400 -> 05:01.600] The gap is massive.
[05:01.600 -> 05:03.000] Charles Leclerc isn't even second anymore.
[05:03.000 -> 05:06.440] I still think Alonso could pip it if he really wanted to.
[05:06.440 -> 05:08.720] Bro, do you know what's so great?
[05:08.720 -> 05:10.780] Is the fact that we've had a month off
[05:10.780 -> 05:13.560] and we've just come back, first race back.
[05:13.560 -> 05:15.740] We haven't watched it in like ideal scenario.
[05:15.740 -> 05:19.520] However, I feel the fire reignited in my soul.
[05:19.520 -> 05:22.080] And we're going to live that fire up even more
[05:22.080 -> 05:24.080] because literally you're going to be listening
[05:24.080 -> 05:24.900] to this on Monday.
[05:24.900 -> 05:28.160] Tomorrow, we fly to Amsterdam. We are in Amsterdam
[05:28.160 -> 05:31.560] Tuesday to Tuesday. We're gonna be there for the Dutch Grand Prix. We're going to
[05:31.560 -> 05:35.800] Zandvoort. We're staying in Amsterdam which probably means we're gonna be late
[05:35.800 -> 05:42.800] to every day. But we're gonna have a bloody great time so whoever's in Amsterdam hit us up. If you
[05:42.800 -> 05:45.840] look like a cool person we'll come meet you. If you don't look cool, we probably won't.
[05:45.840 -> 05:49.040] If you want to find us in Amsterdam, just walk down to every bar
[05:49.040 -> 05:51.360] and we'll probably be on a bar call every evening.
[05:51.360 -> 05:52.320] I cannot wait.
[05:52.320 -> 05:54.720] We're staying like 40 minutes away from the track,
[05:54.720 -> 05:56.240] but we're going to be going into the track,
[05:56.240 -> 05:58.240] obviously for the weekend, for the race.
[05:58.240 -> 06:00.880] And hopefully we get to catch up with some of the guests we've had on.
[06:00.880 -> 06:03.440] It'd be amazing if we can somehow sneak into the Red Bull Garage,
[06:03.440 -> 06:04.960] like Brad promised.
[06:04.960 -> 06:05.080] Oh, I have no qualms with this. and the guests we've had on, it'd be amazing if we can somehow sneak into the Red Bull garage, like Brad promised.
[06:05.080 -> 06:08.240] Oh, I have no qualms with this.
[06:08.240 -> 06:11.600] I know I'm gonna walk straight into that Red Bull garage.
[06:11.600 -> 06:12.880] I'm gonna put a headset on.
[06:12.880 -> 06:14.760] I'm gonna start making changes to the car.
[06:14.760 -> 06:16.760] I don't think they need any changes, mate.
[06:16.760 -> 06:20.000] No, I'll be like, Callum, fuck off for a minute.
[06:20.000 -> 06:22.040] Let me, just let me get my hands on this car
[06:22.040 -> 06:23.920] and you'll be two tenths of a second quicker.
[06:23.920 -> 06:25.520] All I wanna do is hold the spanner.
[06:25.520 -> 06:29.000] I just want to see that actual spanner.
[06:29.000 -> 06:30.800] You know, the spanner that went round the track.
[06:30.800 -> 06:31.620] Yeah.
[06:31.620 -> 06:32.460] I just want to hold it.
[06:32.460 -> 06:37.040] I've actually, you know, recently been trying to
[06:37.040 -> 06:39.600] take care of my health and my fitness a little bit.
[06:39.600 -> 06:41.520] And I feel like I've learned a lot
[06:41.520 -> 06:44.120] and I feel like I have a lot of knowledge to pass on.
[06:44.120 -> 06:49.240] So if Verstappen does need any tips and if Brad isn't pulling his weight then
[06:50.200 -> 06:56.020] Bro, I will be your new performance coach. Did you know I don't think Verstappen needs any help again
[06:56.220 -> 07:02.680] Let's just go through the current drivers standings. Absolutely ridiculous Max Verstappen is first with 284 points
[07:02.760 -> 07:06.680] Sergio Perez is now second. Yeah, just over two with 191 points
[07:07.240 -> 07:09.240] Charles Leclerc is third
[07:09.720 -> 07:14.420] 98 points behind Verstappen. That is a massive gap now
[07:14.920 -> 07:21.160] Like I don't see that changing. I guess a bit too big gap is just a little bit too big
[07:21.800 -> 07:25.240] And it's such a shame because I don't feel like the majority
[07:25.240 -> 07:29.600] of it has been his fault to be honest. No yeah Ferrari have made some
[07:29.600 -> 07:33.640] interesting decisions even in today's race there was interesting decisions it
[07:33.640 -> 07:37.520] just shows you how much points Ferrari have lost because George Russell is
[07:37.520 -> 07:42.040] fifth in the driver's standings and is now only 16 points behind Charles
[07:42.040 -> 07:45.100] Ricouet. It always cracks me up making me think, when I think of Ferrari,
[07:45.100 -> 07:48.000] because I think of all these teams so streamlined,
[07:48.000 -> 07:50.300] like you got like Mercedes, Red Bull,
[07:50.300 -> 07:53.100] like British men, like, you know, like fucking,
[07:53.100 -> 07:55.500] or like German men from Mercedes.
[07:55.500 -> 07:57.200] I don't know, I don't know what fucking they're trying to do.
[07:57.200 -> 07:58.100] They could be from anywhere, Vance.
[07:58.100 -> 08:00.900] But I picture them being so streamlined and pinpoint
[08:00.900 -> 08:02.600] and like wearing glasses and shit.
[08:02.600 -> 08:04.800] And then I picture the Italians like in the garage
[08:04.800 -> 08:07.800] with a little glass of red sat next to maybe like a cheese board
[08:07.800 -> 08:13.720] a little bit of salami and they're just like you know we could put them in for a
[08:13.720 -> 08:17.120] pit or we could have another glass of wine. You know what I actually think it is I
[08:17.120 -> 08:21.240] think they're under so much pressure because they're aware they've got quick
[08:21.240 -> 08:24.180] cars they're aware they've got competitive drivers they're aware they
[08:24.180 -> 08:26.960] can get poles and do well but I think they're also they've got quick cars, they're aware they've got competitive drivers, they're aware they can get poles and do well.
[08:26.960 -> 08:30.120] But I think they're also aware of how far behind they are now.
[08:30.120 -> 08:33.460] I think there will be some alterations to the team next year.
[08:33.460 -> 08:36.080] I think Ferrari will make some changes.
[08:36.080 -> 08:37.080] Do you?
[08:37.080 -> 08:38.080] Like what?
[08:38.080 -> 08:40.120] Just to the pit crew, mechanics, people.
[08:40.120 -> 08:42.440] Race engineers, stuff like that.
[08:42.440 -> 08:43.440] Didn't you Google it?
[08:43.440 -> 08:44.920] Who is the Ferrari strategist?
[08:44.920 -> 08:45.880] It wasn't a strategist.
[08:45.880 -> 08:48.400] It was like the, it wasn't the performance coach.
[08:48.400 -> 08:50.840] It was like something else, some other coach.
[08:50.840 -> 08:51.680] Well, I'm actually on-
[08:51.680 -> 08:55.080] But he, he has been, if he's listening right now,
[08:55.080 -> 08:59.280] he has been the coach for Hamilton, Schumacher,
[08:59.280 -> 09:01.360] Raikkonen, Barry Keller, loads of different people.
[09:01.360 -> 09:02.600] The guy that is there now?
[09:02.600 -> 09:04.560] Because Charles Leclerc's race engineer
[09:04.560 -> 09:06.820] is Xavier Marcos Padros.
[09:06.820 -> 09:07.660] Right, that's not the guy that I was thinking of.
[09:07.660 -> 09:10.540] And he is currently Charles Leclerc's race engineer.
[09:10.540 -> 09:11.520] I'm actually liking this.
[09:11.520 -> 09:12.680] We're not filming today's episode
[09:12.680 -> 09:14.500] because I'm horrendously sunburned.
[09:14.500 -> 09:16.060] It's currently half 10.
[09:16.060 -> 09:16.900] This episode has to go up tonight.
[09:16.900 -> 09:18.900] It's actually great because we're both sprawled out
[09:18.900 -> 09:19.740] on the sofa.
[09:19.740 -> 09:21.380] We haven't got a camera on us.
[09:21.380 -> 09:22.580] I'm wearing my undies.
[09:22.580 -> 09:24.020] Jake's actually naked.
[09:24.020 -> 09:29.000] I feel like we could have a bit more fun with these ones.
[09:29.000 -> 09:31.200] I can move around, I can shake my tush.
[09:31.200 -> 09:33.400] I've got my laptop in front of me, so whenever I feel like
[09:33.400 -> 09:35.640] I'm going to get something wrong, I can just have a little
[09:35.640 -> 09:37.680] search and it's quite good actually, because I can go
[09:37.680 -> 09:38.680] through the whole driver's standard.
[09:38.680 -> 09:40.120] You've got no reason to be wrong today.
[09:40.120 -> 09:40.960] Mate, no reason to be wrong.
[09:40.960 -> 09:42.080] You have Google at your fingertips.
[09:42.080 -> 09:42.960] No reason to be wrong.
[09:42.960 -> 09:45.080] Going right back to the beginning of the race,
[09:45.080 -> 09:47.000] felt a bit sorry for Bottas.
[09:48.240 -> 09:50.960] Bottas is just strolling around the corner,
[09:50.960 -> 09:52.440] you know, he's picking up a bit of pace
[09:52.440 -> 09:54.560] and out of nowhere, Latifi!
[09:54.560 -> 09:56.600] Out of nowhere, straight inside of him.
[09:56.600 -> 09:58.720] He was actually off the track before Latifi hit him.
[09:58.720 -> 10:00.120] What, so it was Bottas' fault?
[10:00.120 -> 10:02.240] Bottas, Bat-ass?
[10:02.240 -> 10:03.600] Bot-a-ba.
[10:03.600 -> 10:05.000] Bottas was on the grass.
[10:05.280 -> 10:06.440] I love a battered sausage.
[10:06.440 -> 10:07.280] I love it.
[10:07.280 -> 10:08.280] Have you ever tried a battered Mars bar?
[10:08.280 -> 10:10.680] No, no, I haven't had a battered Mars bar.
[10:10.680 -> 10:12.600] A battered Mars bar?
[10:12.600 -> 10:13.440] Are you kidding me?
[10:13.440 -> 10:15.360] What, you haven't had one either?
[10:16.160 -> 10:17.680] Where have you had a battered, where?
[10:17.680 -> 10:18.640] Okay.
[10:18.640 -> 10:19.600] Okay, I'll just be quiet.
[10:19.600 -> 10:22.420] Okay, bro, after this pod, we're getting in my car
[10:22.420 -> 10:24.180] and we're driving to the nearest fish and chip shop
[10:24.180 -> 10:26.880] and we're getting a battered Mars mars. We will not do that though!
[10:26.880 -> 10:32.720] This is all talk! You're all talk! Bro, I'm not- we'll do it. Let's pause it and go now then.
[10:32.720 -> 10:36.320] No okay we'll go after. Okay yeah so what was Mars doing wrong? I don't know he was on the
[10:36.320 -> 10:39.680] grass and then as he's turning back onto the track that's when Latifi clipped him.
[10:39.680 -> 10:43.520] Yeah but I think Latifi was very much in the wrong. It's still Latifi's fault. Latifi's coming all the
[10:43.520 -> 10:45.160] way across the track.
[10:45.160 -> 10:48.400] You know, to be fair, Charles Leclerc's finished sixth,
[10:48.400 -> 10:49.920] which isn't terrible.
[10:49.920 -> 10:51.960] I mean, they did start so far down.
[10:51.960 -> 10:53.720] No, but do you not see what happened though, bro?
[10:53.720 -> 10:55.400] Well, yeah, explain it.
[10:55.400 -> 10:57.340] I probably can't give you the greatest explanation
[10:57.340 -> 10:58.640] because I'm Fabio from Pitstop,
[10:58.640 -> 11:01.800] but I'm fairly aware that he drove over some damage
[11:01.800 -> 11:02.760] from one of the cars.
[11:02.760 -> 11:03.600] Okay.
[11:03.600 -> 11:04.840] He had to go in because he had some,
[11:04.840 -> 11:05.960] he had said he had some smoke.
[11:05.960 -> 11:08.120] I have some smoke coming from my friend, right?
[11:08.120 -> 11:09.640] So he went, had to pit early.
[11:09.640 -> 11:11.440] That's why he pitted early,
[11:11.440 -> 11:12.960] because there was something wrong with his car.
[11:12.960 -> 11:13.800] Change it.
[11:13.800 -> 11:15.500] That's why he went back to 19th,
[11:15.500 -> 11:17.000] cause he was ninth.
[11:17.000 -> 11:18.520] Went back to 19th,
[11:18.520 -> 11:20.160] then fought his way back to fifth again.
[11:20.160 -> 11:23.080] Is that why the Ferrari drivers were out
[11:23.080 -> 11:25.440] and one was on hard and one was on medium at the end?
[11:25.440 -> 11:27.840] It's because Leclerc was going for a fastest lap.
[11:27.840 -> 11:29.600] Okay, so that's why they swapped him to softs.
[11:29.600 -> 11:30.960] Did he get the fastest lap?
[11:30.960 -> 11:33.120] Because it says here that Red Bull took maximum points
[11:33.120 -> 11:36.160] this weekend, which must tell me he didn't get the fastest lap.
[11:36.160 -> 11:39.040] Also, I don't get how he could have got the fastest lap
[11:39.040 -> 11:42.400] because he pitted and came out on the final lap
[11:42.400 -> 11:44.240] with his new tyres, didn't he?
[11:44.240 -> 11:46.500] But you can't get a fastest lap on the last lap.
[11:46.500 -> 11:49.500] Because when you come out of the pits, your fastest lap's invalidated.
[11:49.500 -> 11:50.500] Because it's not a whole lap.
[11:50.500 -> 11:56.000] I'm pretty sure it was lap 43 out of 44 when he came out of the pits.
[11:56.000 -> 11:57.500] So he had one lap to do it.
[11:57.500 -> 12:00.500] Okay. Well, I don't know. I don't actually know if he got the fastest lap.
[12:00.500 -> 12:03.500] Which is a silly idea because how are you going to do that without a toe?
[12:03.500 -> 12:04.500] Yeah, I don't know.
[12:04.500 -> 12:07.040] Everyone knows that Charles Leclerc has only got four toes.
[12:10.240 -> 12:11.600] You're so stupid.
[12:13.280 -> 12:14.400] The sun's got to me today.
[12:14.400 -> 12:15.520] Yeah, the sun's got to me.
[12:15.520 -> 12:19.280] Probably that and the fact that we just downed two bottles of Prosecco after covering-
[12:19.280 -> 12:22.400] Oh my god, you guys are going to die at the video, right?
[12:22.400 -> 12:24.240] So me and Fab bought these bottles of Prosecco,
[12:24.240 -> 12:25.940] desperately wanting to like spray them,
[12:25.940 -> 12:28.100] like a Formula One race for if Joshua won,
[12:28.100 -> 12:29.780] like we knew he'd win, cause he's amazing.
[12:29.780 -> 12:31.700] But like, we wanted to, you know,
[12:31.700 -> 12:33.060] we wanted to see it in person.
[12:33.060 -> 12:35.220] And we had these Proseccos ready.
[12:35.220 -> 12:37.500] Fab sprays it, shakes it up,
[12:37.500 -> 12:39.340] puts his thumb on it and squirts it,
[12:39.340 -> 12:42.460] and it just streamlines straight in Joshua's face.
[12:42.460 -> 12:44.900] There's just this picture on Fab's Instagram
[12:44.900 -> 12:48.080] of a 12 year old getting absolutely demolished
[12:48.080 -> 12:49.280] by a bottle of Prosecco.
[12:49.280 -> 12:50.260] I felt bad.
[12:50.260 -> 12:51.100] I was like, Josh, I'm soaked.
[12:51.100 -> 12:51.920] He was soaked, wasn't he?
[12:51.920 -> 12:53.120] He was happy though.
[12:53.120 -> 12:54.680] He was absolutely, yeah, he was happy.
[12:54.680 -> 12:56.400] Luckily he had a spare change of clothes.
[12:56.400 -> 12:57.220] You know what?
[12:57.220 -> 12:58.480] He had a tough weekend.
[12:58.480 -> 12:59.800] Cause even in the YouTube video,
[12:59.800 -> 13:00.640] you're going to hear about it.
[13:00.640 -> 13:02.400] But check this out for a 12 year old, right?
[13:02.400 -> 13:11.160] Yesterday in his first heat, a car went into the back of him, drove up his go-kart, went straight into his back,
[13:11.160 -> 13:14.880] and he went over to like the medicals or whatever, and I know he didn't want to go to the medicals,
[13:14.880 -> 13:19.000] he avoided them, he didn't take his helm off, he was so upset, and his mum thought that
[13:19.000 -> 13:22.960] it like broke his ribs, that he was in so much pain, a go-kart had gone, you saw how
[13:22.960 -> 13:26.500] quick the karts are today, someone had gone straight into the back of him
[13:26.500 -> 13:27.340] and up him.
[13:27.340 -> 13:28.940] And hit his back, mate.
[13:28.940 -> 13:30.500] And this is a 12-year-old boy.
[13:30.500 -> 13:31.780] So he didn't get, you know,
[13:31.780 -> 13:33.460] that's why he was starting seventh today.
[13:33.460 -> 13:35.120] Because all the heats add up.
[13:35.120 -> 13:37.500] And he started further back than he did.
[13:37.500 -> 13:40.020] And he showed so much charisma today.
[13:40.020 -> 13:42.380] To start from seventh and know what he had to do.
[13:42.380 -> 13:43.860] He didn't go for the overtakes.
[13:43.860 -> 13:45.320] He didn't try and push up too much.
[13:45.320 -> 13:47.280] All he needed to do was finish with a certain amount
[13:47.280 -> 13:49.440] of points and he did it perfectly.
[13:49.440 -> 13:51.360] Well bro, to be honest with you,
[13:51.360 -> 13:52.760] I'm fairly sure all these karts
[13:52.760 -> 13:53.800] are meant to be the same level,
[13:53.800 -> 13:55.000] but there was a few out front
[13:55.000 -> 13:57.360] which just looked abnormally quick.
[13:57.360 -> 13:58.760] I feel like, yeah, with something like that
[13:58.760 -> 14:00.120] where you can't screw in everything,
[14:00.120 -> 14:02.440] there's gonna be a few people that do dodgy stuff in it.
[14:02.440 -> 14:04.040] But some of them guys in the front of that race
[14:04.040 -> 14:05.520] were way too quick, It weren't fair.
[14:05.520 -> 14:06.400] You know what they're doing?
[14:06.400 -> 14:07.120] What?
[14:07.120 -> 14:08.160] Orange juice.
[14:08.160 -> 14:09.760] It's the bloody orange juice.
[14:10.320 -> 14:11.920] Orange juice in the engine again.
[14:11.920 -> 14:12.640] With bits in.
[14:12.640 -> 14:16.560] You should like sell that to one of the F1 teams because you are onto something, my friend.
[14:16.560 -> 14:17.360] Bro, right.
[14:18.400 -> 14:19.680] I got that right.
[14:19.680 -> 14:20.560] Orange in the engine.
[14:21.600 -> 14:23.040] I'm really good at physio.
[14:24.320 -> 14:26.520] My strategies are amazing.
[14:26.520 -> 14:28.840] And I could probably fix the car quicker
[14:28.840 -> 14:30.280] than these chumps in Red Bull.
[14:30.280 -> 14:31.880] Chumps in Red Bull.
[14:31.880 -> 14:34.520] To be honest with you man, I'm just all round.
[14:34.520 -> 14:36.200] I'm like a whole, do you know what I mean?
[14:36.200 -> 14:37.040] You're a package deal.
[14:37.040 -> 14:37.920] I'm the whole cake.
[14:37.920 -> 14:38.760] You're like a package holiday.
[14:38.760 -> 14:40.080] I'm not just a slice.
[14:40.080 -> 14:40.920] You're a cake with your belly hanging out.
[14:40.920 -> 14:43.080] I'm the whole chocolate gato.
[14:43.080 -> 14:44.520] That's the great thing about no camera.
[14:44.520 -> 14:46.120] I can sit here, I've got my belly out.
[14:46.120 -> 14:49.120] I've got my shorts pulled up, I've got my thighs out.
[14:49.120 -> 14:51.720] The listeners don't know what they're missing.
[14:51.720 -> 14:52.560] Because we're not on film though,
[14:52.560 -> 14:54.760] we're going to go completely off topic with Formula 1.
[14:54.760 -> 14:55.600] So let's go back.
[14:55.600 -> 14:57.240] Alex Albon came to 10th today.
[14:57.240 -> 14:58.920] Alex Albon put in a really good shift today.
[14:58.920 -> 15:00.480] Yeah, and he was good in qualifying as well.
[15:00.480 -> 15:01.640] The Williams look good.
[15:01.640 -> 15:03.280] Like the Williams gave me hope.
[15:03.280 -> 15:04.320] The William.
[15:04.320 -> 15:05.880] Like... The William looks good. Yeah, okay, yeah, that's fair. The Williams look good. Like the Williams gave me hope. The William. The William looks good.
[15:05.880 -> 15:11.040] Yeah, okay, yeah, that's fair. The William looked good. Vettel came eighth. The Aston
[15:11.040 -> 15:15.600] Martin looks quick. And it was interesting what Fernando Alonso said in his press conference.
[15:15.600 -> 15:19.960] He was asked before the race this weekend, why would you leave a team like Alpine who
[15:19.960 -> 15:23.160] are higher than Aston Martin at the moment? And obviously he probably hasn't really had
[15:23.160 -> 15:26.360] much of a choice in the situation. Maybe it wasn't his decision.
[15:26.360 -> 15:29.600] But he said that next year you're going to get the best
[15:29.600 -> 15:31.520] Fernando Alonso in F1 we've ever had.
[15:31.520 -> 15:34.580] And he seems to fully believe in Aston Martin's plan.
[15:35.840 -> 15:36.680] What's their plan?
[15:36.680 -> 15:38.400] Well, I don't know.
[15:38.400 -> 15:40.720] Mate, you're the guy with all the knowledge.
[15:40.720 -> 15:43.480] Do you think it's possible for a team,
[15:43.480 -> 15:44.740] you know, look at the budget they've got.
[15:44.740 -> 15:49.680] They've got an amazing factory. Aston Martin are one of the most invested teams in they've got a great group of people
[15:49.680 -> 15:51.680] That's the Martin don't have a wind tunnel
[15:52.820 -> 15:56.940] How do you know that they use someone else's I think quite a few teams share though
[15:56.940 -> 16:02.880] That's not getting their own one. Oh, what does that does that make a significant difference if someone has a I think that could be a
[16:04.480 -> 16:08.200] Persuading point which could be a reason why Alonso would want to go there.
[16:08.200 -> 16:12.500] If they're pumping more money and they're investing in new infrastructure, everything else,
[16:12.500 -> 16:14.500] then yeah, why not? Why not?
[16:14.500 -> 16:17.000] He must have a little birdie in his ear telling him that...
[16:17.000 -> 16:18.500] that, uh...
[16:18.500 -> 16:20.500] Fuck, man, I'm so tired.
[16:20.500 -> 16:23.500] Yeah, it's been a long day, man. I'm shattered.
[16:23.500 -> 16:26.000] There must be someone telling him that Aston Martin are going to be sick.
[16:26.000 -> 16:28.000] Breaking news! Breaking news! Breaking news!
[16:28.000 -> 16:36.000] Breaking news! Formula 1 can confirm that the Belgian Grand Prix will be on the 2023 calendar.
[16:36.000 -> 16:38.000] Breaking news, confirmed.
[16:38.000 -> 16:39.000] They said that like an hour ago.
[16:39.000 -> 16:40.000] Oh.
[16:40.000 -> 16:43.000] Yeah, but bro, we've only been podcasting for 15 minutes.
[16:43.000 -> 16:46.000] And breaking news, this is coming out tomorrow, so everyone would have known this yesterday.
[16:46.000 -> 16:48.700] I was trying to catch the viewers' attention again, okay?
[16:48.700 -> 16:51.500] We probably bored them, I was trying to bring them back, right?
[16:51.500 -> 16:53.300] I don't think anyone gets bored of us.
[16:53.300 -> 16:54.700] Who really listens to us?
[16:54.700 -> 16:57.200] Me, I get bored of us, I think it's awful.
[16:57.200 -> 16:59.100] I don't listen to the bods, they bore me.
[16:59.100 -> 17:01.700] I get fucking bored of you.
[17:01.700 -> 17:03.300] I hate you!
[17:03.300 -> 17:07.520] Daniel Ricciardo came 15th today, not the best race for Danny but we all
[17:07.520 -> 17:11.840] know Danny has the talent. I just want to see him in a new car, new team and a fresh start to be
[17:11.840 -> 17:17.440] honest. I think it's what he needs. Yeah at the same time though I'm excited to see like how the
[17:17.440 -> 17:22.000] rest of this year plays out. I said this before, I don't know whether I said it on the pod or not but
[17:22.000 -> 17:29.620] I think there's less pressure on him now. He knows kind of his fate with the McLaren,
[17:29.620 -> 17:33.000] and he doesn't really have to prove to them as much anymore.
[17:33.000 -> 17:36.800] So, you know, maybe he can chill out a bit more. Maybe he was a bit too chill this race.
[17:36.800 -> 17:37.920] Yeah, that's fair.
[17:37.920 -> 17:39.760] So far back, but I don't know, man.
[17:39.960 -> 17:47.480] Let's just go through the top ten. Verstappen won, Perez second, Carlos Sainz third, George Russell fourth, Fernando Alonso fifth,
[17:47.480 -> 17:50.640] Leclerc sixth, Ocon seventh, Vettel eighth,
[17:50.640 -> 17:53.120] Gasly ninth, Albon tenth.
[17:53.120 -> 17:56.360] So Carlos Sainz started pole and finished third.
[17:56.360 -> 17:57.480] Red Bull, man.
[17:57.480 -> 18:00.800] I feel like I could just talk about it for ages.
[18:00.800 -> 18:02.160] I was texting one of my friends just now,
[18:02.160 -> 18:03.000] I was talking about it,
[18:03.000 -> 18:04.440] and they've just come straight back and been like,
[18:04.440 -> 18:07.240] it just, it's done.
[18:07.240 -> 18:09.200] And they're so quick.
[18:09.200 -> 18:14.840] So question for you, do you see Red Bull now having this sort of like multiple year win
[18:14.840 -> 18:16.960] streak that Mercedes just had?
[18:16.960 -> 18:18.600] Mate, yes.
[18:18.600 -> 18:22.000] I think Red Bull have done everything right.
[18:22.000 -> 18:26.680] I think they've done everything right from the people working behind the scenes
[18:26.680 -> 18:29.760] to the drivers in the cars, to the team principals,
[18:29.760 -> 18:33.040] to the media presence, to the way they handle everything.
[18:33.040 -> 18:36.080] To the everyone, look at the people we've met from Red Bull.
[18:36.080 -> 18:39.840] One thing I must say is that Red Bull is the people's team.
[18:39.840 -> 18:40.680] Yeah.
[18:40.680 -> 18:41.720] In terms of engagement,
[18:41.720 -> 18:44.320] in terms of just being like a solid team,
[18:44.320 -> 18:49.460] like to me, they just stand out above the in any any sport that Red Bull does in general
[18:49.540 -> 18:54.120] But with f1 moving forward the way that it has this last year these last couple years
[18:54.520 -> 18:56.360] Red Bull have been at the forefront of that shit
[18:56.360 -> 19:02.240] And you can't you can't knock a team for doing that like they are the people's team and look at Formula One like one of the
[19:02.240 -> 19:06.460] Most important things in the whole race is a pit stop, because everyone has to do it.
[19:06.460 -> 19:07.940] Like, pit stop, grip, brake.
[19:07.940 -> 19:09.700] That's why we made it our brand name!
[19:09.700 -> 19:11.700] What an amazing name for a podcast, by the way.
[19:11.700 -> 19:14.920] It's a bloody good name.
[19:14.920 -> 19:20.620] On the day of filming today, it's also Valtteri Bottas' birthday.
[19:20.620 -> 19:22.780] Happy birthday, Valtteri Bottas.
[19:22.780 -> 19:25.600] Take a guess, how old do you think Valtteri Bottas is today?
[19:25.600 -> 19:26.600] 35.
[19:26.600 -> 19:33.200] Incorrect. Valtteri Bottas is 33. For those of you playing along at home, did you get that right or did you get that wrong?
[19:33.200 -> 19:38.200] He looks like a mid-30s man, so you can't argue with that.
[19:38.200 -> 19:39.800] I want him on the pod so much.
[19:39.800 -> 19:43.000] Yeah, I would love him or Joe.
[19:43.000 -> 19:45.800] To be fair, I'd be happy with any F1 driver.
[19:45.800 -> 19:47.000] I'm like, not fussy.
[19:47.000 -> 19:49.000] Any F1 driver would be great.
[19:49.000 -> 19:50.400] There's a lot of talking points with Bottas,
[19:50.400 -> 19:52.800] because he's just gone from Mercedes
[19:52.800 -> 19:55.000] and having sort of this amazing relationship
[19:55.000 -> 19:57.400] with Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton
[19:57.400 -> 19:58.400] to now being at Alfa,
[19:58.400 -> 20:00.000] which is a very different scenario.
[20:00.000 -> 20:01.800] I'll never forget that one clip of him where he's like,
[20:01.800 -> 20:03.400] oh yeah, I wish I could win a world championship.
[20:03.400 -> 20:04.400] He looks really emotional.
[20:04.400 -> 20:07.880] Like I think that's why I'd love to have a chat with him and speak to him about how he feels
[20:07.880 -> 20:08.520] about everything
[20:08.520 -> 20:11.720] I think there's a lot of people who feel that way because
[20:12.200 -> 20:14.360] Ultimately anyone who's in the Formula One
[20:14.360 -> 20:19.120] They will want to become a world champion and there isn't room for everyone to become a world champion
[20:19.120 -> 20:23.840] So there's gonna be a lot of people who feel that emotion, which is really sad, man
[20:24.160 -> 20:29.160] like it's your one goal in life and you haven't achieved it.
[20:29.160 -> 20:34.540] Through maybe, you know, maybe you're not a good enough driver, as blunt as that is,
[20:34.540 -> 20:37.480] or maybe you just haven't had the opportunities with the correct teams.
[20:37.480 -> 20:41.860] It must be so frustrating, like, these drivers, because a lot of them have raced against each
[20:41.860 -> 20:44.960] other before in like go-karts, like when they were younger, right?
[20:44.960 -> 20:47.220] And when you're in a go-kart like there's probably not as much leeway
[20:47.500 -> 20:52.400] So a lot of these drivers on these grids are probably very aware of like who was better in a car or who was better
[20:52.400 -> 20:54.400] in that series or who is better in that
[20:54.440 -> 20:59.340] But then because they get separated in F1 teams where one team is so much better than another
[20:59.520 -> 21:02.440] You could have a situation where there's drivers on the grid
[21:02.440 -> 21:06.080] Which maybe we do who are actually better drivers,
[21:06.080 -> 21:09.000] but aren't able to compete because they're not in the car,
[21:09.000 -> 21:11.620] which is then when you get really frustrated teams,
[21:11.620 -> 21:12.720] frustrated drivers.
[21:12.720 -> 21:15.840] Bro, there'll be a lot of absolutely amazing,
[21:15.840 -> 21:18.680] insanely talented drivers who won't even get the chance
[21:18.680 -> 21:20.120] to get a seat in the Formula One.
[21:20.120 -> 21:20.960] I know.
[21:20.960 -> 21:21.920] There'll be so many people out there,
[21:21.920 -> 21:23.160] and it's the same thing with music.
[21:23.160 -> 21:26.960] There are so many like unbelievable musicians out there who the world will never hear.
[21:27.840 -> 21:31.280] Just as there's the same as amazing drivers that the world will never see because they haven't got
[21:31.280 -> 21:35.920] the they haven't been given the opportunity whether it's through luck, whether it's through
[21:35.920 -> 21:40.240] money, whether it's through anything like that, like the uncontrollables.
[21:40.240 -> 21:47.800] But I do think 2023 I've got a little feeling like that crystal ball has been shining in my face.
[21:47.800 -> 21:50.520] And I feel like there could be another team coming.
[21:51.440 -> 21:53.600] I just feel like there could be another two cars
[21:53.600 -> 21:54.560] on this grid.
[21:54.560 -> 21:55.400] What next year?
[21:55.400 -> 21:56.840] And then we could have two more drive.
[21:56.840 -> 21:57.680] I don't know.
[21:57.680 -> 22:00.280] I just feel like the sport could do something nuts.
[22:00.280 -> 22:04.220] Like I admire your train of thought
[22:04.220 -> 22:07.000] where if I just make as many predictions as possible
[22:07.000 -> 22:11.000] then at least maybe one of them will be right and that's the one that I'll tell everyone about
[22:11.000 -> 22:18.000] Yeah, so far I'm on about 0 out of 75 but I'm hoping two new cars come to the grid, okay?
[22:18.000 -> 22:21.000] Do you know what's really exciting? I don't know if we spoke about this yet
[22:21.000 -> 22:25.920] We're sat here in the living room, there's like the old F1 cars on TV right now,
[22:25.920 -> 22:27.520] they're just showing all the old races.
[22:27.520 -> 22:29.280] And all the old cars have like the numbers
[22:29.280 -> 22:30.480] written on the side of them.
[22:30.480 -> 22:32.400] Just realized Mercedes have done that,
[22:32.400 -> 22:33.800] which I think is rad.
[22:33.800 -> 22:34.640] I loved it.
[22:34.640 -> 22:36.600] It makes it so much easier to see who's who.
[22:36.600 -> 22:37.720] Totally radical.
[22:37.720 -> 22:38.540] Yeah, really cool.
[22:38.540 -> 22:39.380] I think they should all do it.
[22:39.380 -> 22:41.000] And I don't know whether Ferrari have done it
[22:41.000 -> 22:42.000] all the season or not,
[22:42.000 -> 22:43.520] but they've got their numbers on the back.
[22:43.520 -> 22:44.560] Yeah, I'm not sure.
[22:44.560 -> 22:47.460] It's always quite hard to spot who's who when it's
[22:47.460 -> 22:50.540] on certain camera angles so I do definitely do definitely rate. I wondered
[22:50.540 -> 22:53.500] originally whether they were just covering a sponsor that like it doesn't
[22:53.500 -> 22:57.260] sponsor them anymore. I don't know. Because it's kind of appeared out of nowhere unless there's like a
[22:57.260 -> 23:01.420] significant thing for Mercedes and the Belgian Grand Prix I don't know. To be
[23:01.420 -> 23:04.940] fair anything with yeah maybe because it's a historic track but to be honest
[23:04.940 -> 23:06.480] anything that is reminiscent
[23:06.480 -> 23:07.880] of all the old cars I love,
[23:07.880 -> 23:09.400] like I love all the old branding on it,
[23:09.400 -> 23:10.440] I know they can't do it anymore,
[23:10.440 -> 23:13.120] but all the old cigarette branding on the side of cars,
[23:13.120 -> 23:14.500] and I thought was sick.
[23:14.500 -> 23:15.340] Yeah.
[23:15.340 -> 23:18.760] It doesn't really advocate very well for a sport
[23:18.760 -> 23:20.200] where you got to be fit and healthy.
[23:20.200 -> 23:22.440] Oh yeah, go smoke some Lucky Strike.
[23:22.440 -> 23:23.280] Do you know what I mean?
[23:23.280 -> 23:24.100] It's a bit-
[23:24.100 -> 23:25.400] And the martini thing everywhere.
[23:25.400 -> 23:26.400] Yeah.
[23:26.400 -> 23:27.400] Just Marlboro and martini.
[23:27.400 -> 23:28.400] Yeah, but it looked cool, didn't it?
[23:28.400 -> 23:32.000] It shows how much money these companies had back in the day.
[23:32.000 -> 23:33.000] Yeah.
[23:33.000 -> 23:36.760] Well, yeah, it was run probably more by one big company back then, wasn't it?
[23:36.760 -> 23:37.760] Now I feel like it's fun.
[23:37.760 -> 23:39.280] Look at all the advertisement boards now.
[23:39.280 -> 23:42.880] You've got so many companies funded and everything, but back then, I swear, it was just like Marlboro
[23:42.880 -> 23:44.960] everywhere and like martini everywhere.
[23:44.960 -> 23:48.720] Yeah, Marlboro, Lucky Strike, HP.
[23:48.720 -> 23:49.840] I don't know, I'm just pulling stuff
[23:49.840 -> 23:51.680] off the top of my head right now.
[23:51.680 -> 23:55.720] How about if another team did join the grid in 2022
[23:55.720 -> 23:57.360] and there was just a whole new team.
[23:57.360 -> 23:59.040] Yeah, 2023.
[23:59.040 -> 24:03.160] What two drivers, say I couldn't pull any current F1 drivers.
[24:03.160 -> 24:06.920] What two drivers do you think, if I had the team myself,
[24:06.920 -> 24:09.400] it's called Jake Boy's Formula One team,
[24:09.400 -> 24:11.240] what two drivers in the world
[24:11.240 -> 24:13.480] do you think I should pull in to have a good chance?
[24:13.480 -> 24:15.500] I've got a quick cast, let's say I've got a good car.
[24:15.500 -> 24:17.600] Jake Hughes and Jack Aitken.
[24:17.600 -> 24:19.760] Okay, so we're getting our podcasts on.
[24:19.760 -> 24:20.600] I like it.
[24:20.600 -> 24:21.420] Not bad.
[24:21.420 -> 24:22.260] I like it a lot.
[24:23.120 -> 24:23.960] Let me think about this.
[24:23.960 -> 24:25.800] I was gonna go for Joshua Bagembe.
[24:25.800 -> 24:26.640] Yep.
[24:26.640 -> 24:27.460] But he's 12.
[24:27.460 -> 24:31.400] So I think there might be an age limit.
[24:31.400 -> 24:34.720] No, I would, I would definitely grab.
[24:34.720 -> 24:36.840] Nick De Vries is maybe a shout.
[24:36.840 -> 24:39.200] I'd grab, I'd get Drogovic.
[24:39.200 -> 24:41.080] Like I don't feel like there's any talk around him,
[24:41.080 -> 24:42.440] but he's doing amazing in F2.
[24:42.440 -> 24:44.640] Piastri, technically, cause he's not in F1 yet.
[24:44.640 -> 24:48.320] Oh, if I could grab Piastri, I'd have Piastri and Dragovic.
[24:48.320 -> 24:51.360] But I'd be happy if I could grab Mick out of Haas, I'd take that as well.
[24:51.360 -> 24:53.840] If I could grab a little pastry right now, I'm starving.
[24:53.840 -> 24:55.040] I'm starving as well.
[24:55.040 -> 24:56.720] No food, I'd love a little Piastri.
[24:56.720 -> 25:00.000] Today's one of them weird Sundays where we're unable to give it the energy we normally would.
[25:00.000 -> 25:03.200] We've literally been out screaming on the side of a go-kart track.
[25:03.200 -> 25:06.800] We left London at 8am, it's now nearly 11.
[25:06.800 -> 25:08.400] I am absolutely shattered.
[25:08.400 -> 25:10.400] Three hours to get there, three hours back.
[25:10.400 -> 25:14.000] Yeah, low energy right now, but you know, being the Pit Stop boys,
[25:14.000 -> 25:15.000] there's nothing stopping us.
[25:15.000 -> 25:17.000] I'm just turning it on right now, let's go!
[25:17.000 -> 25:18.000] Yeah!
[25:18.000 -> 25:19.000] Holy ****!
[25:19.000 -> 25:20.000] We are here!
[25:22.000 -> 25:23.000] Bleep that.
[25:23.000 -> 25:31.840] That was quite rude, fam. This is a bit of a short episode. I'm not really sure what else we can really say. The race was amazing. We didn't really
[25:31.840 -> 25:32.840] get to see all of it.
[25:32.840 -> 25:35.040] We didn't even get to watch the whole thing. We've literally just watched the highlights.
[25:35.040 -> 25:37.200] Okay, so let's talk about some more of the highlights.
[25:37.200 -> 25:41.480] Well, no, I think the guys need to know that like from this episode onwards, it's going
[25:41.480 -> 25:46.260] to be mega because they're going to be out in Zambor. So Thursday's episode, we're probably gonna be doing live
[25:46.260 -> 25:47.360] from our hotel room.
[25:47.360 -> 25:48.200] That's cool.
[25:48.200 -> 25:49.020] That's cool.
[25:49.020 -> 25:50.560] Which will be cool because we probably got a few,
[25:50.560 -> 25:51.480] we're only gonna be there,
[25:51.480 -> 25:53.160] we would have been there one night,
[25:53.160 -> 25:55.760] but there'll be some stories to tell, I'm sure.
[25:55.760 -> 25:57.960] Well, don't worry guys, we won't hide anything either.
[25:57.960 -> 26:02.960] Yeah, also something absolutely out of this world,
[26:03.280 -> 26:05.000] mega is happening on Wednesday.
[26:05.800 -> 26:06.700] That's all you're getting.
[26:06.700 -> 26:08.640] But this-
[26:08.640 -> 26:09.840] Don't even let me talk about it
[26:09.840 -> 26:11.400] because you know that I'll give it away.
[26:11.400 -> 26:13.040] You shut that trap throw away the key.
[26:13.040 -> 26:15.680] But this is potentially the biggest thing
[26:15.680 -> 26:16.880] that we've Pitstops ever done.
[26:16.880 -> 26:19.960] I guess the only way to talk about it would be like,
[26:19.960 -> 26:23.280] imagine who wouldn't be doing anything on a Wednesday.
[26:23.280 -> 26:24.120] Is that giving too much away?
[26:24.120 -> 26:25.580] What the fuck? What the fuck?
[26:25.580 -> 26:26.420] What the fuck?
[26:26.420 -> 26:29.640] Just stop, just stop.
[26:29.640 -> 26:32.000] So we've got one of our racing sims set up.
[26:32.000 -> 26:33.400] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we have.
[26:33.400 -> 26:34.960] We're still waiting on a few more bits.
[26:34.960 -> 26:38.200] And Verstappen's fastest I've been qualifying was a 143.6.
[26:38.200 -> 26:39.280] What did you set?
[26:39.280 -> 26:40.960] At Spa, a 150.
[26:40.960 -> 26:43.360] Oh, so we're flying.
[26:43.360 -> 26:44.240] Not bad, not bad.
[26:44.240 -> 26:46.000] Six seconds behind a world champion. Yes, please and thank you. I bad, not bad. Six seconds behind a world champion.
[26:46.000 -> 26:47.000] Yes, please and thank you.
[26:47.000 -> 26:48.000] I'll take it all day long.
[26:48.000 -> 26:49.000] Thank you very much.
[26:49.000 -> 26:51.000] To be fair, I could probably chill out.
[26:51.000 -> 26:53.000] Once we get this edited and uploaded,
[26:53.000 -> 26:55.000] I could probably go and sit on that Sim for a little bit.
[26:55.000 -> 26:56.000] Do you know what?
[26:56.000 -> 26:57.000] You want to put in a few hotlines?
[26:57.000 -> 26:58.000] Yeah, man.
[26:58.000 -> 26:59.000] I think we've given it a...
[26:59.000 -> 27:01.000] Like, we have to give ourselves a bit of credit as well.
[27:01.000 -> 27:04.000] We've done this month, done all our episodes,
[27:04.000 -> 27:07.000] put a mad amount of time in. in like we're knackered right now
[27:07.000 -> 27:10.600] we're about to go away for the week like we need a break this needs to be a short
[27:10.600 -> 27:13.680] episode and we're gonna be back with a banger on Thursday that's better than
[27:13.680 -> 27:15.680] ever Sunday's is gonna be better than ever
[27:15.680 -> 27:19.280] Sunday's is gonna be mega I feel like maybe Sunday's we could because we're
[27:19.280 -> 27:23.720] gonna be at the race we can't pod at the race but we could kind of pod in the
[27:23.720 -> 27:26.960] morning after qualifying in the hotel and then we could probably maybe we just take little
[27:26.960 -> 27:32.160] dribs and drabs there's nothing stopping us from podding from the car park is it?
[27:32.160 -> 27:36.920] As soon as we leave those gates, we're as fucking anyone. There seems to be very strict rules with Formula 1
[27:36.920 -> 27:41.300] what we're allowed to film where and when so it does we have to behave as
[27:41.300 -> 27:46.400] much as we possibly can maybe I don't know maybe maybe we won't do this and I'm gonna sound like a knob, but
[27:47.200 -> 27:51.360] Sunday's episode could be like little bits from, like little segments from here, there and everywhere else.
[27:51.360 -> 27:53.040] Yeah, okay, well let's see what we can do.
[27:53.040 -> 27:54.720] Like we did in Imla before we had to take it down.
[27:57.120 -> 27:59.440] I do feel like Sunday's episode is gonna be a good one.
[27:59.440 -> 28:02.160] And I feel like Thursday's episode is gonna be me and you in Amsterdam, man.
[28:02.160 -> 28:04.240] We've been to Amsterdam twice before already.
[28:04.240 -> 28:05.200] Yep, we've got some experiences. I've been to Amsterdam twice before already. Yep.
[28:05.200 -> 28:06.400] We've got some experiences.
[28:06.400 -> 28:09.120] I've actually been another three times on top of that.
[28:09.120 -> 28:10.240] So, this is gonna be my sixth time.
[28:10.240 -> 28:13.400] So, one thing is for sure, we know our way around.
[28:13.400 -> 28:14.240] We know our way around.
[28:14.240 -> 28:17.800] And we know what we're looking for.
[28:17.800 -> 28:20.080] And we're only looking for one thing,
[28:20.080 -> 28:21.760] good food and nice bars.
[28:21.760 -> 28:23.720] Cause there's this one bar where you pour your own beers
[28:23.720 -> 28:28.280] and that is really cool. Yeah. Was that a restaurant? I don't know what it was.
[28:28.280 -> 28:33.120] We have to go back there. It was your birthday last time we were there. I've got that clip of me singing
[28:33.120 -> 28:36.520] happy birthday to you in the car with James. And there was that swing on top of that
[28:36.520 -> 28:41.160] that building. Man I'm so excited to get out the flat because like Fab's quit his
[28:41.160 -> 28:48.200] job so Fab hasn't even been leaving the flat for the first time in his whole life he hasn't even gone anywhere. Guys I'm jobless so if there is anyone out
[28:48.200 -> 28:53.280] there who wants to offer me a job Red Bull Mercedes McLaren Alpine Aston Martin
[28:53.280 -> 28:58.780] Williams Alfa Romeo. So you've gone from labouring doing pretty much absolutely jack shit
[28:58.780 -> 29:06.000] every day. Excuse me. I've seen the videos. I've seen the videos. Yeah me! I used to do nothing.
[29:06.000 -> 29:08.000] To come in on the mic and be like
[29:08.000 -> 29:10.000] Alpine, Red Bull, Mercedes, McLaren.
[29:10.000 -> 29:12.000] Shaun, if you're listening, I'm sorry but I never did anything.
[29:14.000 -> 29:16.000] Do you reckon your ex-boss is missing?
[29:16.000 -> 29:18.000] Missing me?
[29:18.000 -> 29:23.000] Not listening, but he's absolutely missing me because they've been texting me every day asking me to come back.
[29:23.000 -> 29:29.680] Oh wow, that's really nice. It is really nice and I never did any work so I can't imagine what they want me back for maybe just the sheer entertainment
[29:29.680 -> 29:34.440] The smile, the smile, come to work with a smile. That's all they want mate. That's all they want
[29:35.040 -> 29:38.460] Guys, thanks so much for tuning in today's episode probably bit of a shorter one
[29:38.680 -> 29:44.040] However, do not fret because the next two episodes at least are gonna be absolute blasters
[29:44.040 -> 29:47.600] Yeah, I need to chill out. And also we need to edit this Joshua video. We've got two hours
[29:47.600 -> 29:51.440] of footage here. We've got to get this done tonight before we leave for Amsterdam because
[29:51.440 -> 29:54.960] we want it to go up. Hit the iron while it's hot. We've got a national champion here. I
[29:54.960 -> 29:56.760] don't want to keep him waiting. You know?
[29:56.760 -> 29:57.760] Oh no.
[29:57.760 -> 30:01.360] But there is a chance we may have a special guest coming to the flat tomorrow.
[30:01.360 -> 30:06.720] Oh yeah. So maybe that could be Wednesday's episode.
[30:06.720 -> 30:08.160] Or we could do a bonus,
[30:08.160 -> 30:09.600] because we're going to be out there.
[30:09.600 -> 30:11.800] It is, it's actually a,
[30:11.800 -> 30:13.840] not a guest that you would expect.
[30:13.840 -> 30:15.400] However, it's cool.
[30:15.400 -> 30:16.640] If it does happen.
[30:16.640 -> 30:17.880] And he messaged us.
[30:17.880 -> 30:18.720] It's pretty rad.
[30:18.720 -> 30:19.540] That's cool.
[30:19.540 -> 30:20.640] Like the thought of someone messaging us
[30:20.640 -> 30:21.680] and being like, yo, I'm around,
[30:21.680 -> 30:22.500] do you want to do a pod?
[30:22.500 -> 30:23.340] And it's a cool guest.
[30:23.340 -> 30:26.420] Like what I love about what we're doing on Pit Stop
[30:26.420 -> 30:27.920] is I feel like we're opening the door
[30:27.920 -> 30:29.380] and sharing the stories for the people
[30:29.380 -> 30:30.920] that don't usually get to speak
[30:30.920 -> 30:31.760] or don't usually get to talk about what they do.
[30:31.760 -> 30:33.620] Can we drop any hints about this guy?
[30:34.880 -> 30:36.760] No, no more hints.
[30:36.760 -> 30:37.840] Maybe I've got a little hint.
[30:37.840 -> 30:38.680] Okay.
[30:38.680 -> 30:43.680] Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba.
[30:47.000 -> 30:54.000] How's that a hint? How's that a hint? I don't know what you're doing at all!

[31:48.400 -> 31:50.400] but I just like the fact that someone may come up to us
[31:50.400 -> 31:51.680] and be like, here's a blade of grass.
[31:51.680 -> 31:53.000] I listened to your pod.

[32:04.160 -> 32:05.320] where it's got all the pastries
[32:05.320 -> 32:07.080] and they do all the donuts and gingerbread men
