[01:13.640 -> 01:15.760] Matt was like, I ain't have none of this.

[01:49.000 -> 01:53.500] The only thing is we've got someone sat in front of us who I think his channel might have a million.
[01:53.500 -> 01:56.800] So, our 10k doesn't seem quite as...
[01:56.800 -> 01:58.800] He's a bit of a big dog in the scene, isn't he?
[01:58.800 -> 02:02.100] Ladies and gents, we are joined by none other than Matt Gallagher.

[02:07.460 -> 02:08.300] It has, yeah.
[02:08.300 -> 02:09.120] WTF has a million subscribers now.
[02:09.120 -> 02:10.480] That's huge, man.
[02:10.480 -> 02:13.360] Yeah, it's been a long project, a long venture,
[02:13.360 -> 02:15.480] but yeah, I think we're about 1.1 now
[02:15.480 -> 02:17.560] and can't forget that 100K, you know what I mean?
[02:17.560 -> 02:19.640] Like, that's a lot of people to forget.
[02:19.640 -> 02:21.360] Where's the mill plaque?
[02:21.360 -> 02:23.840] It's actually in my office, just kind of sat there,
[02:23.840 -> 02:24.880] just chilling right now.
[02:24.880 -> 02:26.020] It's not been put up or anything
[02:26.020 -> 02:28.680] because I'm terrible with putting things up on walls.
[02:28.680 -> 02:31.160] Like just, I get Soph's dad to do it, to be honest.
[02:31.160 -> 02:33.000] I'm just like, yeah, come over, sort it out.
[02:33.000 -> 02:34.760] I want the 100K plaque, we're gonna cut it off.
[02:34.760 -> 02:35.680] However you want it.
[02:35.680 -> 02:37.200] No, I want it, you've already got one.
[02:37.200 -> 02:38.040] I've got two.
[02:38.040 -> 02:38.860] You've got two?
[02:38.860 -> 02:40.560] I'm having that fucking plaque.
[02:40.560 -> 02:41.400] You can have it if you want it.
[02:41.400 -> 02:42.760] Thank you, bro, I appreciate that.
[02:42.760 -> 02:44.920] We're also joined on the other side of the room
[02:44.920 -> 02:46.200] by Sophie Braley.
[02:46.200 -> 02:47.040] Woo!
[02:47.040 -> 02:47.860] Make some noise!
[02:47.860 -> 02:48.700] Yay!
[02:48.700 -> 02:49.880] Let's go.
[02:49.880 -> 02:51.800] We're gonna go for drinks after this podcast.
[02:51.800 -> 02:53.520] We are. We haven't had any already.
[02:53.520 -> 02:54.800] No, we haven't, sadly.
[02:54.800 -> 02:55.720] Gasping.
[02:55.720 -> 02:56.560] No.
[02:56.560 -> 02:58.600] But Matt, let's just hit it off straight away.
[02:58.600 -> 02:59.960] I wanted to do this pod,
[02:59.960 -> 03:02.160] like I didn't want it to be an interviewer,
[03:02.160 -> 03:03.000] because we know you already.
[03:03.000 -> 03:04.960] We've met you a few times already.
[03:04.960 -> 03:06.520] You're a giant in the F1 world.
[03:06.520 -> 03:09.040] Like I think you guys are probably top of your game
[03:09.040 -> 03:09.880] at the moment.
[03:09.880 -> 03:12.160] And I just want to know, like, how did it all start?
[03:12.160 -> 03:14.600] Like, how did you get into this, this whole circus?
[03:14.600 -> 03:16.240] Yeah, it's a mad journey.
[03:16.240 -> 03:19.040] It's weird to think that this is even like what I'm doing.
[03:19.040 -> 03:20.340] And I think it's probably the same for you guys
[03:20.340 -> 03:21.760] where you just kind of sit there and go,
[03:21.760 -> 03:24.440] wait, no, I talk about Formula One, like for fun
[03:24.440 -> 03:25.080] and I get paid, it's mad. But yeah,, wait, I talk about Formula One like for fun and I get paid.
[03:25.080 -> 03:25.520] It's mad.
[03:25.880 -> 03:31.120] Um, but yeah, I mean, I've been part of WTF1 for nearly six years, five and a half
[03:31.120 -> 03:31.560] years.
[03:31.720 -> 03:34.600] Um, but before then I had nothing to do with Formula One.
[03:34.640 -> 03:38.440] All I did was a silly little channel where I shouted at Formula One games and
[03:38.600 -> 03:42.280] it was just a hobby, but I used to work with young people in schools, uh, doing
[03:42.280 -> 03:43.960] sort of like counselling sort of stuff with them.
[03:44.000 -> 03:44.400] Oh, cool.
[03:44.440 -> 03:47.940] Um, and yeah, I didn't really know where I was going in life.
[03:47.940 -> 03:50.200] And, but then I had this fun channel, as I said,
[03:50.200 -> 03:55.000] and one day Tommy, the WTF1 founder, he messaged me,
[03:55.000 -> 03:58.040] he DMed me on Twitter, and I was like,
[03:58.040 -> 04:00.880] oh my God, Tommy's messaged me.
[04:00.880 -> 04:02.120] Because even then, WTF1, I was like,
[04:02.120 -> 04:04.640] that's the funny lot, you know?
[04:04.640 -> 04:07.360] And I was just this stupid kid shouting at games.
[04:07.360 -> 04:10.440] And Tom was like, oh, we've got this opportunity
[04:10.440 -> 04:12.040] potentially coming up with WTF1,
[04:12.040 -> 04:13.680] and we're gonna launch a YouTube channel,
[04:13.680 -> 04:15.040] but we can't really say too much.
[04:15.040 -> 04:17.160] And usually you try and play it quite cool.
[04:17.160 -> 04:19.040] I replied within one minute.
[04:19.040 -> 04:20.520] And I was like, oh yeah, so tell me more.
[04:20.520 -> 04:23.080] And then yeah, so we got talking,
[04:23.080 -> 04:27.600] had loads of interviews and whatnot. and yeah, the rest is history.
[04:27.600 -> 04:29.360] It's mad to even think back on it really.
[04:29.360 -> 04:31.360] How many years ago was that?
[04:31.360 -> 04:35.600] That would have been 2017, maybe late 2016 we started talking.
[04:35.600 -> 04:37.600] So yeah, quite a while ago.
[04:37.600 -> 04:39.600] So you've been there for what, five years?
[04:39.600 -> 04:40.560] Yeah, yeah.
[04:40.560 -> 04:42.560] And how long has WTF1 been going as a whole?
[04:42.560 -> 04:44.560] WTF1's been going on for yonks.
[04:44.560 -> 04:46.560] I think Tommy, who people would think
[04:46.560 -> 04:47.920] that he's about 20 years old,
[04:47.920 -> 04:50.840] cause he's a baby face, but he's like 34, I think.
[04:50.840 -> 04:51.760] Shit, really?
[04:51.760 -> 04:52.600] Yeah.
[04:52.600 -> 04:53.420] Wow.
[04:53.420 -> 04:54.260] I did not know that.
[04:54.260 -> 04:55.100] I have not heard of him.
[04:55.100 -> 04:55.920] That's insane.
[04:55.920 -> 04:58.360] And he started WTF1 in his university bedroom,
[04:58.360 -> 05:00.680] cause he just wanted to do like funny memes
[05:00.680 -> 05:01.560] about Formula One.
[05:01.560 -> 05:03.520] And it was just a Facebook page.
[05:03.520 -> 05:04.800] It was just a bit of fun.
[05:04.800 -> 05:06.380] And then he got a bit of traction,
[05:06.380 -> 05:07.500] and then he built a website,
[05:07.500 -> 05:09.460] and then eventually he sold the company
[05:09.460 -> 05:11.880] to a company called Car Throttle,
[05:11.880 -> 05:15.180] who are in the automotive YouTube space as well.
[05:15.180 -> 05:16.740] And yeah, and he's kind of worked
[05:16.740 -> 05:17.940] for the brand ever since really.
[05:17.940 -> 05:19.380] Did the launch of the YouTube channel
[05:19.380 -> 05:21.340] have anything to do with Drive Survive?
[05:21.340 -> 05:22.780] It seems like very similar.
[05:22.780 -> 05:29.400] No, because Drive Survive was, I think, just after. So the channel, I think, was mainly
[05:29.400 -> 05:35.880] just because they saw an opening in the space of F1 YouTube wasn't really, not in the actual
[05:35.880 -> 05:41.080] talk about the sport, it was more about gaming and it was quite loosely sort of covered.
[05:41.080 -> 05:44.480] And they saw an opportunity because of, you know, there was a reasonable audience on WTF1
[05:44.480 -> 05:46.800] over the social media platforms and the website. They thought, well, look, let's add a YouTube Roedd cyfleoedd ar gyfer y cyfansoddiadau ar y cydweithiau a'r wefan.
[05:46.800 -> 05:49.160] Roeddwn i'n meddwl, gadewch i ni adnodd canol YouTube.
[05:49.160 -> 05:51.960] A dyna pan ddechreuwyd.
[05:51.960 -> 05:57.760] Roeddwn i'n cyflwyno'r cyfrifiad cyntaf.
[05:57.760 -> 06:01.840] Roeddwn i'n cael cyfleoedd ar y cydweithiau a'r autosport yn Birmingham.
[06:01.840 -> 06:03.840] Roedd gennym gweithdai i'w gynnal.
[06:03.840 -> 06:06.960] Yn fy nghyfrain, roeddwn i'n cyflwyno'r cyfrifiad cyntaf. Autosport International in Birmingham, where they had like a test shoot for me. And bearing in mind, all I'd done was like a microphone
[06:06.960 -> 06:08.560] and talk over Formula One games,
[06:08.560 -> 06:10.200] but they got me to do some presenting
[06:10.200 -> 06:12.320] and I'd never done presenting before.
[06:12.320 -> 06:15.120] First thing I'm like, where do I put my hands?
[06:15.120 -> 06:15.960] Like genuinely.
[06:15.960 -> 06:20.960] If you look back, literally, I wasn't quite like that.
[06:21.840 -> 06:23.920] I was more like rigid down here.
[06:23.920 -> 06:26.080] And it's still on the channel, actually.
[06:26.080 -> 06:28.200] It's Lotus 49 video.
[06:28.200 -> 06:29.360] I'll never forget it.
[06:29.360 -> 06:30.880] But I was just interviewing.
[06:30.880 -> 06:33.840] And my hands, honestly, my arm placement was all over.
[06:33.840 -> 06:35.200] It wasn't even all over the shop.
[06:35.200 -> 06:35.960] It was just there.
[06:35.960 -> 06:37.120] And I was just dead.
[06:37.120 -> 06:39.360] But I was so busy thinking about what I would say.
[06:39.360 -> 06:41.780] And I was like, I don't know anything about this Lotus 49.
[06:41.780 -> 06:43.480] But they're telling me to talk about it.
[06:43.480 -> 06:45.520] And yeah, it was nerve wracking,
[06:45.520 -> 06:48.240] but thankfully they saw a diamond in the rough
[06:48.240 -> 06:49.280] or whatever you want to call it,
[06:49.280 -> 06:50.720] and they kept me on.
[06:50.720 -> 06:52.240] So yeah, it was good.
[06:52.240 -> 06:53.760] So that's so cool, man, to hear that.
[06:53.760 -> 06:54.760] Like, I love those stories.
[06:54.760 -> 06:56.080] Like, it's similar to Will Buxton,
[06:56.080 -> 06:58.200] like the university thing,
[06:58.200 -> 06:59.480] and then just growing it from there.
[06:59.480 -> 07:02.160] And yeah, you guys are literally like the biggest
[07:02.160 -> 07:04.600] F1 related YouTube channel, I think,
[07:04.600 -> 07:05.580] that goes at the minute. I think so, yeah. It's insane. Yeah, we've been watching the stuff you guys are literally like the biggest F1 related YouTube channel, I think, that goes at the minute.
[07:05.580 -> 07:07.840] I think so, yeah, it's insane.
[07:07.840 -> 07:09.340] Yeah, we've been watching the stuff you guys do
[07:09.340 -> 07:10.180] before we launched.
[07:10.180 -> 07:12.280] I remember seeing you right way before we launched
[07:12.280 -> 07:14.240] and looking at everything you guys did.
[07:15.160 -> 07:16.980] And the channel is just so big.
[07:16.980 -> 07:21.400] Do you think that personality is coming out more
[07:21.400 -> 07:24.000] in F1 related content than what it used to be?
[07:24.000 -> 07:25.960] Because I was looking back at old videos
[07:25.960 -> 07:28.680] and I just feel like everything used to be quite serious.
[07:28.680 -> 07:30.040] And now everyone is just like,
[07:30.040 -> 07:31.560] we can do what the fuck we want really.
[07:31.560 -> 07:34.480] Like, I think people get way more invested now in a person
[07:34.480 -> 07:35.840] than like a load of stats.
[07:35.840 -> 07:37.800] Yeah, absolutely.
[07:37.800 -> 07:40.440] Yeah, it's interesting once you think of the transition,
[07:40.440 -> 07:42.000] I suppose, yeah, with WTF1,
[07:42.000 -> 07:43.480] we used to do a lot of listicles,
[07:43.480 -> 07:45.800] a lot of things that were just teaching our audience,
[07:45.800 -> 07:48.200] you know, seven things Michael Schumacher did in his career.
[07:48.200 -> 07:50.840] I mean, you're wearing a Michael Schumacher shirt.
[07:50.840 -> 07:53.200] Hopefully you got inspired by what I'm wearing.
[07:53.200 -> 07:54.040] I appreciate it.
[07:54.040 -> 07:55.320] I don't know anything about him, but I'm wearing it.
[07:55.320 -> 07:56.680] Oh, don't say that, he's my hero.
[07:56.680 -> 07:57.520] Okay, sorry.
[07:57.520 -> 07:58.360] Sorry.
[07:58.360 -> 08:00.480] I won't quiz you on it then.
[08:00.480 -> 08:03.520] But yeah, I think definitely a lot of people invest more
[08:03.520 -> 08:04.840] and probably the same with you guys,
[08:04.840 -> 08:06.080] you know, invest in the personalities, you guys picking up o bobl yn cymryd mwy, a'n eithaf i gyd gyda chi, yn cymryd y personale,
[08:06.080 -> 08:07.760] chi'n cymryd Formula 1 a'r dysgu,
[08:07.760 -> 08:09.920] maen nhw'n hoffi'r personale,
[08:09.920 -> 08:11.240] y mhrofiad y mae gennych chi'n mynd,
[08:11.240 -> 08:13.360] ac i mi, mae pawb yn cymryd i mewn i wylio i mi
[08:13.360 -> 08:14.760] am Ferrari bob wythnos.
[08:14.760 -> 08:16.240] Wnawn i, rwy'n gweld y fideo.
[08:16.240 -> 08:18.880] Mae'n cysylltiad emociynol,
[08:18.880 -> 08:20.880] a'n ymgyrchu gyda'n gwylion,
[08:20.880 -> 08:23.360] ac mae llawer o bobl yn hoffi gweld,
[08:23.360 -> 08:24.800] nid dim ond i mi, ond hefyd Tommy,
[08:24.800 -> 08:25.240] a'r ffaith bod yn fanfoy o Verstappen, a roeddwn i'n ei ffwrddio ar ddechrau'r seswn, you know, our viewers and a lot of people just love to see that not just me, but also Tommy and the fact
[08:25.240 -> 08:26.520] that he's a Verstappen fan boy.
[08:26.520 -> 08:28.480] And I was mocking him at the start of the season.
[08:28.480 -> 08:30.320] Ah yeah, 43 points ahead.
[08:30.320 -> 08:31.960] That worked out well.
[08:31.960 -> 08:35.760] I'll be crying myself to sleep every night, literally.
[08:35.760 -> 08:38.000] Exactly, so now it's, it has changed.
[08:38.000 -> 08:38.960] The space has changed a lot.
[08:38.960 -> 08:41.320] And I think more people just want to hear our opinions.
[08:41.320 -> 08:43.280] And at the end of the day, you know, our tagline is,
[08:43.280 -> 08:46.000] you know, we are fans making content for fans. We're not a serious media outlet there to just give you news. Mae'n dweud bod pobl eisiau clywed ein syniadau. Ar y diwedd, ein rhiflwyr yw ein bod ni'n faniaid sy'n gwneud content i faniaid.
[08:46.000 -> 08:48.000] Nid ydym yn ddifrifolwyr o'r cyfryngau
[08:48.000 -> 08:50.000] i roi'r wybodaeth.
[08:50.000 -> 08:52.000] Rydym yn gwneud hynny, ond rydyn ni'n addasu
[08:52.000 -> 08:54.000] un o'r personolitiaeth i'w gilydd hefyd,
[08:54.000 -> 08:56.000] a gobeithio bydd yn cyflwyno'r cwmni.
[08:56.000 -> 08:58.000] Mae'n rhoi cyfleoedd wych
[08:58.000 -> 09:00.000] oherwydd rydyn ni wedi gweld eich bod chi wedi gwneud
[09:00.000 -> 09:02.000] llawer o gydag ymdrechion.
[09:02.000 -> 09:04.000] Pa ymdrechion y gafodd chi gael?
[09:04.000 -> 09:06.080] Mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud. Mae'r cyfeiriadau yn y gwaith. Like you've made videos, what drivers have you done stuff with? Oh, quite a few. Yeah, I know. That's what I mean.
[09:06.080 -> 09:07.480] What are some of the big names though?
[09:07.480 -> 09:10.200] Well, you've done Vettel. I've seen Vettel. I've seen Leclerc.
[09:10.200 -> 09:15.000] Yeah, so I guess on the current grid, what, we did an interview with George Russell a few years ago,
[09:15.000 -> 09:18.400] back when he was with Williams, that was around Drive to Survive,
[09:18.400 -> 09:21.000] one of the releases, they gave us an opportunity, which was cool.
[09:21.000 -> 09:24.160] We sat very close, like it was very odd.
[09:24.160 -> 09:25.040] Like our legs were basically touching.
[09:25.040 -> 09:25.880] I've seen it.
[09:25.880 -> 09:26.700] I've seen it.
[09:26.700 -> 09:27.540] Are you alright?
[09:27.540 -> 09:28.380] Like chairs sat next to each other.
[09:28.380 -> 09:30.320] And what are you asking him or talking about?
[09:30.320 -> 09:32.120] It was about what does it feel like
[09:32.120 -> 09:34.440] for to press the brakes really hard for the first time.
[09:34.440 -> 09:35.640] I think that's what we titled it.
[09:35.640 -> 09:36.480] Okay.
[09:36.480 -> 09:37.960] So it was just like a 15, 20 minute interview
[09:37.960 -> 09:39.880] and we did like a reaction game with him and stuff.
[09:39.880 -> 09:42.760] But yeah, I just remember being sat really close to him.
[09:42.760 -> 09:44.400] But that was just the way that their cameras
[09:44.400 -> 09:45.280] had been set up.
[09:45.280 -> 09:48.320] And I was like, our kneecaps are like touching.
[09:48.320 -> 09:49.160] Hi George, nice to meet you.
[09:49.160 -> 09:50.000] People will pay you good money for that.
[09:50.000 -> 09:50.820] Yeah.
[09:50.820 -> 09:51.660] Do you know?
[09:51.660 -> 09:53.120] Did you feel really comfortable on camera then?
[09:53.120 -> 09:54.880] Or were you still learning like?
[09:54.880 -> 09:55.720] Not really.
[09:55.720 -> 09:57.560] I think that was maybe a year or two in.
[09:57.560 -> 10:00.200] And I was probably getting a little bit more confident,
[10:00.200 -> 10:01.400] but then there's this, you know,
[10:01.400 -> 10:03.240] Netflix production around you.
[10:03.240 -> 10:05.360] And there's loads of people watching behind the camera and you're going, oh, this is a little bit nerve wracking. But no, it's cool. Ond yna mae'r producción Netflix ar y rhan o chi, ac mae llawer o bobl yn edrych ar ôl'r camera,
[10:05.360 -> 10:08.080] a'n mynd i'w gwrthdwrio.
[10:08.080 -> 10:09.280] Ond na, mae'n ddiddorol,
[10:09.280 -> 10:10.720] oherwydd rydych chi'n dysgu bob tro
[10:10.720 -> 10:12.360] pan rydych chi'n gwneud cyfrifiad drwy'r drifo.
[10:12.360 -> 10:13.520] A rydyn ni wedi bod yn ddigon ddau
[10:13.520 -> 10:15.240] i ddod o'r amser gyda Danny Rick,
[10:15.240 -> 10:16.480] er enghraifft, dyna'n eitha'r un
[10:16.480 -> 10:18.000] rydyn ni wedi'i wneud y mwyaf,
[10:18.000 -> 10:19.280] oherwydd roedden ni'n cael cyfleoedd da
[10:19.280 -> 10:20.800] gyda'r ymarferion a phosib.
[10:20.800 -> 10:22.400] Ac rydw i wedi'i ddangos
[10:22.400 -> 10:24.560] yn adferdd Infinity gyda Danny Rick,
[10:24.560 -> 10:25.940] lle roedd yn gwneud donuts. Dwi ddim yn gwybod a oes gennych chi weld adferdd y mlynedd in an infinity advert with Danny Rick where he was doing donuts.
[10:25.940 -> 10:28.380] I don't know if you've seen the employee of the month
[10:28.380 -> 10:29.800] advert that Danny Rick did.
[10:29.800 -> 10:30.640] No, I haven't.
[10:30.640 -> 10:31.480] I've not seen that.
[10:31.480 -> 10:33.520] You should watch it because at one point I feature
[10:33.520 -> 10:35.920] and I'm the guy that sat in the passenger seat
[10:35.920 -> 10:37.920] of the Renault and he just gets in
[10:37.920 -> 10:39.520] and he's basically trying to be employee of the month
[10:39.520 -> 10:41.160] and sell the car to me.
[10:41.160 -> 10:42.680] And he does donuts and stuff like that.
[10:42.680 -> 10:44.480] Like, you know, you just look back at it.
[10:44.480 -> 10:48.440] It's, yeah, it countless, like really cool stuff that
[10:48.440 -> 10:51.680] I'm so fortunate as well to be able to not just experience
[10:51.680 -> 10:54.720] it, but go back on the YouTube channel and have like a
[10:54.720 -> 10:57.440] library of stuff where I can go, oh, that was awesome.
[10:57.440 -> 10:58.920] You know, someone was filming me doing it.
[10:58.920 -> 11:00.400] It's yeah, it's mad.
[11:00.400 -> 11:03.160] Yeah. Like being a, you're a massive F1 fan yourself as well.
[11:03.160 -> 11:05.500] So that's the, that's the difference, right?
[11:05.500 -> 11:07.700] Because most of the people working in the sport and on Sky Sports,
[11:07.700 -> 11:10.600] wherever a lot of them are like previous drivers or whatever.
[11:10.800 -> 11:14.000] So there's a new wave of people that have come through as fans,
[11:14.000 -> 11:16.000] but they'll be able to get the same opportunities,
[11:16.300 -> 11:18.600] which is why I think it's really interesting where we've been getting
[11:18.600 -> 11:22.000] people on the pod and talking about like their journeys into how they did it.
[11:22.500 -> 11:26.520] Do you think it's possible for people listening to go and do what we do o'r ffordd y gynnall. Ydych chi'n meddwl y gallai pobl i'w gwrando
[11:26.520 -> 11:28.000] i wneud yr hyn rydyn ni'n ei wneud,
[11:28.000 -> 11:29.120] a gwneud canolaethau'n hwyr,
[11:29.120 -> 11:30.680] a dechrau pethau fel hyn?
[11:30.680 -> 11:31.680] Yn wir.
[11:31.680 -> 11:33.280] Y ffaith bod rydw i'n y stydio hon,
[11:33.280 -> 11:34.720] mae'n dangos hynny.
[11:34.720 -> 11:36.040] Doedd gen i ddiddordeb o'r hyn rydw i'n ei wneud
[11:36.040 -> 11:37.040] am ychydig mlynedd yn ôl.
[11:37.040 -> 11:39.880] I meddwl, yn wir,
[11:39.880 -> 11:41.000] rydw i'n teimlo fy mod yn un
[11:41.000 -> 11:43.280] o bobl anhygoel sy'n cymryd ffordd Formula 1.
[11:43.280 -> 11:44.160] A rwy'n credu y peth pwysicrwydd
[11:44.160 -> 11:46.380] y mae pobl yn mwynhau, yw gweld yr oedran a'r hymdrech i rhywbeth. I just see myself as a very normal person that just loves Formula One. And I think the main thing that people enjoy is just that seeing that passion
[11:46.380 -> 11:48.420] and that enthusiasm for something.
[11:48.420 -> 11:50.840] And that's what people really invest in.
[11:50.840 -> 11:51.680] But no, absolutely.
[11:51.680 -> 11:53.760] I think obviously it's getting more crowded,
[11:53.760 -> 11:56.440] the space nowadays, more and more people.
[11:56.440 -> 11:59.060] But then that's probably from seeing people do it
[11:59.060 -> 12:00.760] and going, I wanna have a go.
[12:00.760 -> 12:04.720] And I think the key thing is don't expect to be,
[12:04.720 -> 12:06.000] you know know get results
[12:06.000 -> 12:10.240] overnight you know you've got to just be so grounded in the sense of I'm gonna do
[12:10.240 -> 12:14.280] it for fun I'm gonna show my passion I won't change what I want to do for what
[12:14.280 -> 12:17.520] someone else is telling me to do and just go for it you know and at the end
[12:17.520 -> 12:20.720] of the day I did it as a hobby to begin with I was making stupid videos on
[12:20.720 -> 12:25.600] YouTube. Playing Cod 4 as well? Yeah well everything like stupid stuff on YouTube. Playing COD 4 as well, don't you? Well, everything, like stupid stuff, you know.
[12:25.600 -> 12:27.000] Oh, you're a COD 4 guy?
[12:27.000 -> 12:28.800] Oh yeah, COD 4's a hard one.
[12:28.800 -> 12:31.720] I've been making montages since COD 5, COD 4.
[12:31.720 -> 12:32.540] Yeah.
[12:32.540 -> 12:34.240] Yeah, iBoysy goes years back, mate.
[12:34.240 -> 12:35.840] I had a Dazzle capture card,
[12:35.840 -> 12:36.960] a Horkish PBR.
[12:36.960 -> 12:38.920] MLG, like competitive gaming.
[12:38.920 -> 12:40.080] MLG game battles, the lot.
[12:40.080 -> 12:40.920] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[12:40.920 -> 12:42.160] Modded controllers.
[12:42.160 -> 12:44.080] Oh, of course, yeah, you're like holding it like this.
[12:44.080 -> 12:46.760] I had the lot, mate.
[12:46.760 -> 12:48.040] That's where it stemmed for me.
[12:48.040 -> 12:50.400] My first one I think was,
[12:50.400 -> 12:51.760] you've probably never heard of this capture card,
[12:51.760 -> 12:53.440] but it's called a Blitzbox HD.
[12:53.440 -> 12:54.280] Yeah, oh yeah.
[12:54.280 -> 12:55.520] That was serious stuff.
[12:55.520 -> 12:56.360] I remember that was F1 2010.
[12:56.360 -> 12:57.480] Salivating on the end of the bed
[12:57.480 -> 12:58.320] with my Sony Ericsson.
[12:58.320 -> 12:59.160] It was for me.
[12:59.160 -> 13:01.080] My phone literally salivates in the bed.
[13:01.080 -> 13:02.320] Filming the scream of the phone.
[13:02.320 -> 13:03.160] That's what I do.
[13:03.160 -> 13:04.720] I used to get my mum to hold my camera
[13:04.720 -> 13:06.440] when I'm playing guitar here.
[13:06.440 -> 13:08.800] Mum, come here and film this!
[13:08.800 -> 13:10.600] I promise I'll do a good one this time.
[13:10.600 -> 13:13.440] Oh, it's funny how things evolve
[13:13.440 -> 13:15.160] from like what you like as kids.
[13:15.160 -> 13:17.560] And it's years of experience though, I think.
[13:17.560 -> 13:19.200] Like if you've been doing YouTube for that long
[13:19.200 -> 13:21.280] and making videos on your own, it's a crossover
[13:21.280 -> 13:23.160] and it all comes out later on.
[13:23.160 -> 13:24.440] Exactly, yeah, it is.
[13:24.440 -> 13:25.840] Cause a lot of people watch your stuff now and go,
[13:25.840 -> 13:27.560] oh, they've just like fallen into it.
[13:27.560 -> 13:28.480] But then we just mentioned,
[13:28.480 -> 13:30.200] like, you know, I was plugging my wheel
[13:30.200 -> 13:32.360] onto a rickety old table.
[13:32.360 -> 13:33.460] And, you know, as you say,
[13:33.460 -> 13:35.640] like getting, trying to put up a camera somewhere
[13:35.640 -> 13:37.680] that there's like a window sill or something,
[13:37.680 -> 13:38.640] like, oh, that's about right.
[13:38.640 -> 13:41.380] And, you know, it's that slog of learning
[13:41.380 -> 13:44.440] all that sort of stuff is priceless at the end of the day.
[13:44.440 -> 13:47.720] Yeah. For that stuff,, enthusiasm is so key.
[13:47.720 -> 13:50.960] I think, we have zero facts and everyone knows this now.
[13:50.960 -> 13:51.960] We don't know shit.
[13:51.960 -> 13:53.120] But you own it, you own it, don't you?
[13:53.120 -> 13:55.880] The people get off on the fact that we just love the sport
[13:55.880 -> 13:56.720] and we're so enthusiastic about it.
[13:56.720 -> 13:58.320] But I do think we're getting better.
[13:58.320 -> 13:59.320] Oh, quarter of, yeah.
[13:59.320 -> 14:01.520] I actually think we know a lot more than we think now.
[14:01.520 -> 14:02.360] We're getting there.
[14:02.360 -> 14:03.960] We're not this good.
[14:03.960 -> 14:06.200] But I'm not the encyclopedia, don't worry.
[14:06.200 -> 14:08.160] You know a fair bit more than us.
[14:08.160 -> 14:10.360] But you can see your enthusiasm when you watch your videos.
[14:10.360 -> 14:11.440] And even when you're doing a video
[14:11.440 -> 14:13.700] when you're not on camera and you're just talking,
[14:13.700 -> 14:15.680] you hear the enthusiasm in your voice.
[14:15.680 -> 14:18.920] Like when you got the chance to drive that Formula One car
[14:18.920 -> 14:21.320] and afterwards, like you're fucking crying, man.
[14:21.320 -> 14:23.200] And that's like just the raw emotion
[14:23.200 -> 14:25.040] that everyone wants to see, you know?
[14:25.040 -> 14:27.520] Yeah, that was, I mean, that particular video
[14:27.520 -> 14:31.720] was so early on in the whole career, that was 2017.
[14:31.720 -> 14:34.640] So we'd just started the YouTube channel.
[14:34.640 -> 14:36.760] And it's a funny story really,
[14:36.760 -> 14:39.520] because I got an email from this agency,
[14:39.520 -> 14:40.520] it was a French agency,
[14:40.520 -> 14:42.280] so it was actually really broken English.
[14:42.280 -> 14:44.680] So I've read it and gone, it's like blah, blah, blah, blah,
[14:44.680 -> 14:48.080] this competition with, so essentially they were, to give you context, they were doing this competition ac roedd yng Nghaerfyrdd. Fe wnaethon nhw ddweud, mae'r cymdeithas yn ymwneud â'r cymdeithas
[14:48.080 -> 14:51.280] y gwnaeth un o'r cyfrifolwyr
[14:51.280 -> 14:54.880] ymwneud â ddrifo'r F1,
[14:54.880 -> 14:57.440] ond roedd yn rhaid iddo gwneud y cymdeithas,
[14:57.440 -> 14:58.400] drifo'r arall,
[14:58.400 -> 15:00.480] a'r unig ferson a'i ddewis,
[15:00.480 -> 15:01.960] ac roeddent am ddweud i'r cymdeithas
[15:01.960 -> 15:03.120] gwneud y fideo,
[15:03.120 -> 15:04.080] a'r cyfrifolwyr dweud,
[15:04.080 -> 15:06.520] byddwch chi'n cael drifo'r F1 ar y ffyrdd. be selected and they wanted a media partner essentially to make a video and they're like oh you will also get to drive the Formula One car at the bottom
[15:06.520 -> 15:10.800] in the final casual statement at the bottom of the email after massive but
[15:10.800 -> 15:17.240] there's no way I'll reply anyway yeah sure really interesting turns out to be
[15:17.240 -> 15:21.560] real and I'm like okay all right fine and obviously went through the whole
[15:21.560 -> 15:26.200] journey I mean the fitness video people really enjoy because I nearly died, you know.
[15:27.720 -> 15:29.880] In the video, I did one pull up
[15:29.880 -> 15:32.640] and that was the end of me when it comes to-
[15:32.640 -> 15:34.560] One pull up last year, to go to Sri Lanka.
[15:34.560 -> 15:36.040] Well, yeah, yeah, I know, yeah.
[15:36.040 -> 15:37.200] Well, one was clearly enough,
[15:37.200 -> 15:39.560] but ever since then I've been like, pull ups, Matt,
[15:39.560 -> 15:41.800] come on, you can do two, you can do two.
[15:41.800 -> 15:44.240] But yeah, so then, yeah, that whole thing was just mad
[15:44.240 -> 15:47.080] because at the end of it, we've gone,
[15:47.080 -> 15:48.520] well, what do we do now?
[15:48.520 -> 15:51.280] Like we've driven an F1 car, just delete the channel.
[15:51.280 -> 15:52.120] It's over.
[15:52.120 -> 15:53.520] You're not gonna top it.
[15:53.520 -> 15:54.360] That's it.
[15:54.360 -> 15:56.840] And you know, you said about me crying and stuff.
[15:56.840 -> 15:59.340] The funny thing was obviously I was mic'd up,
[15:59.340 -> 16:01.240] thinking, oh, I was gonna do an outro.
[16:01.240 -> 16:03.400] I got mic'd, I think I already had my mic on,
[16:03.400 -> 16:04.880] got out of the car, and obviously, you know,
[16:04.880 -> 16:07.040] I'm back in the distance of the cameraman
[16:07.040 -> 16:09.160] so he can hear me again, obviously reacting.
[16:09.160 -> 16:10.840] And then I go and call my mum,
[16:10.840 -> 16:13.000] but I'm so early in my job, I forget I'm mic'd up.
[16:13.000 -> 16:16.120] So I'm just, oh mum, so, you know,
[16:16.120 -> 16:17.440] and then I've, afterwards.
[16:17.440 -> 16:19.280] Ethan on the camera was like,
[16:19.280 -> 16:20.800] I recorded all of that stuff.
[16:20.800 -> 16:22.880] Are you joking?
[16:22.880 -> 16:25.960] And yeah, I just, I remember that day
[16:25.960 -> 16:27.040] like it was yesterday.
[16:27.040 -> 16:29.960] Cause I just remembered going every second
[16:29.960 -> 16:32.280] I have to take advantage of and remember
[16:32.280 -> 16:34.680] because this is never going to happen again.
[16:34.680 -> 16:37.240] Like this opportunity is never going to come around again.
[16:37.240 -> 16:40.160] And yeah, it was just mind boggling.
[16:40.160 -> 16:42.240] What's it like driving an F1 car?
[16:42.240 -> 16:43.600] Cause I remember watching Top Gear
[16:43.600 -> 16:45.680] and like Richard Hammond was in an F1 car
[16:45.680 -> 16:46.880] and he was saying how hard it is.
[16:46.880 -> 16:48.800] Like he couldn't get it to start straight away,
[16:48.800 -> 16:50.920] but you seem to just fly out.
[16:50.920 -> 16:51.760] Are you a natural?
[16:51.760 -> 16:53.480] Like what's going on there?
[16:53.480 -> 16:55.480] I know Alpine are looking for a driver.
[16:56.320 -> 17:01.000] But no, I think Richard Hammond drove an older F1 car
[17:01.000 -> 17:02.600] that maybe wasn't running traction control.
[17:02.600 -> 17:04.280] I think, because the one that I drove
[17:04.280 -> 17:06.680] was technically theus 2012,
[17:06.680 -> 17:08.160] i gyd oedd wedi'i rhannu Renault.
[17:08.160 -> 17:11.040] Felly oedd Kimi Räikkönen yn gynnal car o Abu Dhabi.
[17:11.040 -> 17:13.560] Mae'n ddifrif.
[17:13.560 -> 17:16.760] Felly roedd yn car dda.
[17:16.760 -> 17:18.160] Iawn,
[17:18.160 -> 17:19.560] roeddwn i'n cael fy nghymryd.
[17:19.560 -> 17:21.640] Felly y cymdeithaswyr oedd y cyntaf
[17:21.640 -> 17:23.120] ac roedd yn ddifrifol iawn.
[17:23.120 -> 17:24.960] Roedd yn ymdrech.
[17:24.960 -> 17:26.360] Roedd yn ymdrech iawn, o was kind of, he was quite scared that, you know,
[17:26.360 -> 17:28.200] if I bin this, it's over, you know,
[17:28.200 -> 17:30.640] I'm not going to be able to pay this back.
[17:30.640 -> 17:32.200] Did you have to sign anything before that was like,
[17:32.200 -> 17:33.840] if you crush it, you got to pay for it?
[17:33.840 -> 17:34.920] I think at the beginning,
[17:34.920 -> 17:36.480] I didn't really read all the terms and conditions.
[17:36.480 -> 17:37.520] Did you just sign?
[17:37.520 -> 17:38.720] I'm probably glad if one was like,
[17:38.720 -> 17:41.320] you have to pay for everything you break.
[17:41.320 -> 17:42.960] But yeah, I remember being rolled up the pits
[17:42.960 -> 17:44.920] because the guy was told previously
[17:44.920 -> 17:47.000] to just go out the pits with the hand clutch
[17:47.000 -> 17:48.640] because obviously the clutch is on the steering wheel,
[17:48.640 -> 17:49.860] but he kept stalling it.
[17:49.860 -> 17:52.080] So then from my go, they rolled me out.
[17:52.080 -> 17:53.080] But the funny thing is,
[17:53.080 -> 17:55.400] as well, I forgot about this until just now.
[17:55.400 -> 17:57.520] I got told after the competition winner,
[17:57.520 -> 18:00.360] they were packing away and I was going,
[18:00.360 -> 18:03.360] hold on, hold on, there's still me to go.
[18:03.360 -> 18:05.520] Bearing in mind, this is literally the best day of my life.
[18:05.520 -> 18:07.120] I'm like, I'm about to drive the Formula One car.
[18:07.120 -> 18:08.360] And you're watching them pack up in front of you
[18:08.360 -> 18:09.200] thinking, I haven't gone.
[18:09.200 -> 18:12.040] And they put away the wheels, and I'm like, hold on.
[18:12.040 -> 18:12.880] Oh no.
[18:12.880 -> 18:13.840] So yeah, it's genuine.
[18:13.840 -> 18:17.080] So I goes, no, got one more, me, hi.
[18:17.080 -> 18:17.920] Hi, I'm going to drive that.
[18:17.920 -> 18:19.200] And they had no idea.
[18:19.200 -> 18:20.600] So anyway, it was a conversation.
[18:20.600 -> 18:21.520] They went, okay, no, fine.
[18:21.520 -> 18:22.360] Okay, you can go in.
[18:22.360 -> 18:23.840] I was like, oh my God.
[18:23.840 -> 18:26.960] No, genuinely, I saw my dream crumbling before me.
[18:26.960 -> 18:28.200] But thankfully they said, yeah.
[18:28.200 -> 18:31.160] And anyway, so I come out, roll out the pits.
[18:31.160 -> 18:33.760] And I mean, my God.
[18:33.760 -> 18:36.400] Like, obviously there's absolutely no travel
[18:36.400 -> 18:37.400] whatsoever in the brake.
[18:37.400 -> 18:39.240] Like the brake, you move it about one millimeter.
[18:39.240 -> 18:40.560] That's full, that's full brake.
[18:40.560 -> 18:41.680] Yeah, yeah.
[18:41.680 -> 18:43.560] But the throttle, like you press it and I'm just like,
[18:43.560 -> 18:45.320] okay, oh my God, my head's just gone.
[18:45.320 -> 18:47.260] And you'll see it when I'm upshifting.
[18:47.260 -> 18:50.060] So I did basically half of Silverstone.
[18:50.060 -> 18:52.300] So just about coming into Magus and Beckett's turn right
[18:52.300 -> 18:54.700] and go on to Wellington straight.
[18:54.700 -> 18:55.540] Is that the one?
[18:55.540 -> 18:56.360] Yeah. Yeah.
[18:56.360 -> 18:57.200] Wellington straight.
[18:57.200 -> 18:58.020] Yeah. I think that's the one.
[18:58.020 -> 18:58.860] Yeah.
[18:58.860 -> 18:59.940] I was conferring.
[18:59.940 -> 19:00.780] Yeah.
[19:00.780 -> 19:01.620] Yeah. Yeah.
[19:01.620 -> 19:02.440] Definitely.
[19:02.440 -> 19:03.280] Got it right.
[19:03.280 -> 19:04.120] Yeah. Yeah.
[19:04.120 -> 19:05.720] But I remember just a bit,
[19:05.720 -> 19:08.000] because I was told I'd get one out lap,
[19:08.000 -> 19:10.160] one lap, and then I'm in, basically.
[19:10.160 -> 19:11.440] So that's it, no time.
[19:11.440 -> 19:13.080] Like the whole video, it shows you
[19:14.400 -> 19:16.240] how much time I had in it.
[19:16.240 -> 19:17.920] And I just remembered, oh, Matt,
[19:17.920 -> 19:20.560] you have to press the throttle fully,
[19:20.560 -> 19:21.980] and you just have to go for it.
[19:21.980 -> 19:24.560] So I remember just kind of coming out the pits.
[19:24.560 -> 19:25.760] Oh, that's pretty quick, okay. Going around the corner, onto Wellington Street. I'm like, okay, Matt, you just got to go for it. So I remember just kind of coming out the pits. Oh, that's pretty quick.
[19:25.760 -> 19:28.080] Okay, go around the corner onto Wellington Street.
[19:28.080 -> 19:29.580] I'm like, okay, Matt, you just got to send it.
[19:29.580 -> 19:31.240] So I just absolutely just floored it.
[19:31.240 -> 19:33.260] And then you just see my head going,
[19:33.260 -> 19:35.560] and honestly, you just can't control your head
[19:35.560 -> 19:37.440] because obviously the neck muscles just nowhere
[19:37.440 -> 19:39.240] compared to what the F1 drivers are.
[19:39.240 -> 19:40.520] I didn't push it in the brakes
[19:40.520 -> 19:42.520] because I had no idea how they would work
[19:42.520 -> 19:44.120] or if I'd even have the pressure
[19:44.120 -> 19:45.520] to be able to actually, you know, slow down. oherwydd dydw i ddim yn debyg sut fyddai'r cymaint yn gweithio, neu os oeddwn i'n cael y pwysau i allu
[19:45.520 -> 19:48.200] arwain.
[19:48.200 -> 19:50.400] Fe wnaethon ni hynny, a dweudwn i, wow, okay.
[19:50.400 -> 19:52.240] Ac yna rwy'n cofio,
[19:52.240 -> 19:54.880] rwy'n credu, y byddai'r cwrn o'r ddau o'r ddau o'r ddau,
[19:54.880 -> 19:56.400] oh, dwi'n ceisio,
[19:56.400 -> 19:57.320] rwy'n meddwl, ie,
[19:57.320 -> 19:58.160] dim ond ar ôl i'r ddau o'r ddau,
[19:58.160 -> 19:59.000] mae gennych chi'r ddau o'r ddau,
[19:59.000 -> 20:00.880] ac yna mae gennych chi ddau ffwrdd fach
[20:00.880 -> 20:02.680] i fynd i'r ddau o'r ddau,
[20:02.680 -> 20:03.600] ac rwy'n cofio, iawn,
[20:03.600 -> 20:04.720] rwy'n mynd i'w hysgru yma hefyd,
[20:04.720 -> 20:06.680] felly rwy'n hysgrifio nhw allan o'r ddau o'r ddau cyn i'r ddau o'r ddau o'r ddau. have a small kink going into the old pit straight. And I remember going, right, I'm going to send it here as well. So I sent it out of that right hander
[20:06.680 -> 20:08.960] before the kink onto the old pit straight.
[20:08.960 -> 20:11.280] And even that tiny kink, which in the F1 game,
[20:11.280 -> 20:13.360] I'm like, yeah, that's fine.
[20:13.360 -> 20:14.800] I remember going like that,
[20:14.800 -> 20:16.200] turning like that at full throttle.
[20:16.200 -> 20:18.600] And I was like, whoa, oh my God.
[20:18.600 -> 20:19.960] So I remember lifting ever so slightly
[20:19.960 -> 20:21.000] and then going back on the throttle.
[20:21.000 -> 20:23.560] So I was like, honestly, the change of direction,
[20:23.560 -> 20:26.120] even for that tiny bit,
[20:26.120 -> 20:29.680] it gave me so much appreciation for F1 drivers thinking,
[20:29.680 -> 20:30.960] not only do they have to do this,
[20:30.960 -> 20:32.600] but there's 19 other drivers around
[20:32.600 -> 20:33.960] and they've got to have the awareness.
[20:33.960 -> 20:35.360] And they've got to do it for like an hour.
[20:35.360 -> 20:37.760] 60 laps, it's crazy.
[20:37.760 -> 20:38.880] It wasn't like I was finished,
[20:38.880 -> 20:39.880] because I wasn't trapped.
[20:39.880 -> 20:41.680] The brakes are where it would have killed me.
[20:41.680 -> 20:44.240] And I didn't want to take any liberties with that.
[20:44.240 -> 20:48.080] But I just, yeah, it was just the best day of my life.
[20:48.080 -> 20:50.560] Sorry, Soph, if we have kids or whatever,
[20:50.560 -> 20:54.400] it will still be the best day of my life, genuinely.
[20:54.400 -> 20:56.840] Well, hopefully one day we get to go to Carth.
[20:56.840 -> 20:58.800] I don't know if I trust myself to be honest.
[20:58.800 -> 20:59.640] It'd be way too quick.
[20:59.640 -> 21:01.480] Get on the phone to Paul Ricard,
[21:01.480 -> 21:05.440] they do, I think some laps with cars.
[21:05.440 -> 21:07.480] And I think there's MagniCorp as well.
[21:07.480 -> 21:09.960] Like if you can get a little crowd fun going,
[21:09.960 -> 21:12.760] they do older F1 cars and you have to pay,
[21:12.760 -> 21:13.600] but I'm sure you can pay.
[21:13.600 -> 21:14.880] Really, how much is it?
[21:14.880 -> 21:16.600] Oh mate, I don't even know.
[21:16.600 -> 21:18.520] I was never looking to pay.
[21:19.800 -> 21:21.120] But no, there's thousands of miles.
[21:21.120 -> 21:23.000] Silverstone let the people pay!
[21:23.000 -> 21:25.080] Silverstone do like a F3 car, isn't there?
[21:25.080 -> 21:25.920] Yeah, they do.
[21:25.920 -> 21:26.920] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[21:26.920 -> 21:31.760] That was the warmup that I had was in the F3-ish car
[21:31.760 -> 21:33.960] around where I was gonna go.
[21:33.960 -> 21:36.680] And yeah, it's very different.
[21:37.560 -> 21:40.520] Well, one day, one day, fabs.
[21:40.520 -> 21:42.120] One day we'll get there, mate, don't worry about it.
[21:42.120 -> 21:43.800] So you said you're a big Ferrari fan as well?
[21:43.800 -> 21:44.640] Yes.
[21:44.640 -> 21:45.880] Ferrari always? Yeah, well, I't worry about it. So you said you're a big Ferrari fan as well. Yes. Ferrari always.
[21:45.880 -> 21:48.360] Yeah, well, I mean, Michael Schumacher was my hero
[21:48.360 -> 21:50.320] growing up, probably because I was a glory hunter
[21:50.320 -> 21:51.560] at a young age.
[21:51.560 -> 21:52.380] Yeah.
[21:52.380 -> 21:55.120] I was plonked in front of a TV from about three.
[21:55.120 -> 21:56.840] My dad loved Formula One.
[21:56.840 -> 21:58.320] It's like, you're going to love Formula One.
[21:58.320 -> 21:59.880] And I did, took it, you know,
[21:59.880 -> 22:01.360] and I've watched it ever since.
[22:01.360 -> 22:04.440] And Michael Schumacher, you know, winning all the time.
[22:04.440 -> 22:06.400] I was like, yeah, this is my guy.
[22:06.400 -> 22:09.440] And, you know, even if he was out the race,
[22:09.440 -> 22:10.680] I'd turn off the TV, you know,
[22:10.680 -> 22:11.720] don't want any more of this.
[22:11.720 -> 22:13.040] Yeah, I'm off.
[22:13.040 -> 22:15.200] Not anymore as a Leclerc fan.
[22:15.200 -> 22:18.600] I have, you know, I have to watch it as well with my job.
[22:18.600 -> 22:19.920] But yeah, Michael was-
[22:19.920 -> 22:21.360] What was it like that day you filmed with Leclerc,
[22:21.360 -> 22:22.200] by the way?
[22:22.200 -> 22:24.320] What happens when you're sat there,
[22:24.320 -> 22:26.120] does he just like randomly walk in? Oh, for with Leclerc by the way? What happens when you're sat there, does he just like randomly walk in?
[22:26.120 -> 22:28.120] Oh, for the Leclerc Miami video?
[22:28.120 -> 22:29.120] Yeah, when you did the driving sim.
[22:29.120 -> 22:30.960] If you film with someone like that, how does it work?
[22:30.960 -> 22:33.480] I wish it was us just like, oh, he just pops in.
[22:33.480 -> 22:37.120] We were there for probably five hours before he arrived.
[22:37.120 -> 22:42.800] So it was, he had this stacked filming day and we had a slot and, you know, we were doing
[22:42.800 -> 23:05.840] a sponsor piece with, you know, Cody's for the new F1 game. Roeddwn i'n gweithio gyda'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyrdd a'r ffyr or something, so okay, cool. And yeah, so we were there setting up, testing everything.
[23:05.840 -> 23:07.680] So we did the use Dear I Drive thing,
[23:07.680 -> 23:08.520] which was quite a funny concept.
[23:08.520 -> 23:10.080] Yeah, it was great, I like that concept.
[23:10.080 -> 23:11.240] Yeah, and he was really sarcastic.
[23:11.240 -> 23:12.920] Wasn't that a last minute thing?
[23:12.920 -> 23:14.320] Wasn't it meant to be different?
[23:14.320 -> 23:16.720] I swear you telling us that it was gonna be different.
[23:16.720 -> 23:19.120] We had another idea which was involving both the sims,
[23:19.120 -> 23:20.240] we were gonna race each other,
[23:20.240 -> 23:21.560] and then like some technical issue
[23:21.560 -> 23:22.800] meant that we couldn't do that essentially.
[23:22.800 -> 23:24.880] So we had a backup idea of use Dear I Drive,
[23:24.880 -> 23:26.800] which turned out to be so much better.
[23:26.800 -> 23:28.440] Yeah, the video was amazing.
[23:28.440 -> 23:29.280] I literally enjoyed it.
[23:29.280 -> 23:31.880] And it was almost like a blessing in disguise really.
[23:31.880 -> 23:33.400] And yeah, it was really fun.
[23:33.400 -> 23:36.280] Cause even though he knew WTF1 were filming with him,
[23:36.280 -> 23:38.160] he hadn't really clocked that I'd actually be there.
[23:38.160 -> 23:40.400] And I remember kind of walking around to the side of him
[23:40.400 -> 23:41.600] as he was in the sim practicing,
[23:41.600 -> 23:43.080] like getting ready and whatever.
[23:43.080 -> 23:44.160] He was like, oh, Matt.
[23:44.160 -> 23:47.280] And I was like, hey, WTF1.
[23:47.280 -> 23:50.120] No, he was really cool.
[23:50.120 -> 23:52.880] Yeah, he almost brightened up immediately,
[23:52.880 -> 23:55.660] which was great because he'd been doing a bit more boring,
[23:55.660 -> 23:57.480] I guess, PR stuff previously.
[23:57.480 -> 24:00.880] That's the thing that makes my job so worthwhile is when
[24:00.880 -> 24:03.480] you can get the content that you really want out of them,
[24:03.480 -> 24:10.080] and they enjoy it. I think the video kind of came across and he was like really sarcastic.
[24:10.080 -> 24:13.440] And it was almost like he was in that sort of lockdown streaming era
[24:13.440 -> 24:16.680] where he can just have fun and just come out with whatever he wants.
[24:16.680 -> 24:19.280] And that's my job to make sure that he feels comfortable to do that.
[24:19.280 -> 24:24.200] And yeah, it's cool as well, obviously being a Leclerc fan to see,
[24:24.200 -> 24:25.760] well, at the time I was like,
[24:25.760 -> 24:28.960] oh, how good is it that you're leading the championship, eh?
[24:28.960 -> 24:32.160] That was the worst jinx I could have put on him, ever.
[24:32.160 -> 24:34.480] Like, he's 80 points behind now, what have I done?
[24:34.480 -> 24:36.000] I know, what is going on, by the way?
[24:36.000 -> 24:38.160] It's not great for Ferrari.
[24:38.160 -> 24:40.000] It looked so good in the beginning of the season,
[24:40.000 -> 24:43.040] and then it's just kind of teetered off a little bit, which is sad.
[24:43.040 -> 24:44.320] Yeah, yeah, it's depressing.
[24:46.560 -> 24:49.480] We did a video recently on the WCF1 YouTube channel
[24:49.480 -> 24:52.040] where it was like, how many points have Ferrari actually lost?
[24:52.040 -> 24:53.600] And it was kind of breaking down every race
[24:53.600 -> 24:57.440] and hypothetically, you know, how many points are lost?
[24:57.440 -> 24:59.080] And we kind of worked out,
[24:59.080 -> 25:00.680] and this isn't even the swing to Verstappen,
[25:00.680 -> 25:01.840] because of course, if Leclerc's winning
[25:01.840 -> 25:03.240] and Verstappen's second,
[25:03.240 -> 25:05.280] it's not a seven or 25 point loss in terms of Leclerc losing a victory, but it's also 32 Mae'n ddiddorol iawn. Rwy'n credu bod y rhan fwyaf o'r pwyntiau o ran ymdrechiad,
[25:05.280 -> 25:08.640] achos wrth gwrs mae'n rhedeg ychydig o'r rhan fwyaf o'r rhan o'r cyflawniad.

[25:26.560 -> 25:32.200] There are obviously strategy blunders, the most recent being Hungary and that being,
[25:32.200 -> 25:35.440] oh God, because obviously we do watch-alongs as well on Twitch, so people are seeing my
[25:35.440 -> 25:36.440] poor reactions.
[25:36.440 -> 25:38.120] Yeah, I've seen the reactions, I've seen them.
[25:38.120 -> 25:43.080] I mean it's every week, I'm like, please give me a day off, just give me a boring strategy.
[25:43.080 -> 25:45.000] You know, like the team radio, it's like, oh, what strategy? And they're always like, please give me a day off. Just give me a boring strategy. You know, like the team radio is like,
[25:45.000 -> 25:45.960] oh, what strategy?
[25:45.960 -> 25:48.320] And they're always like, plan Z.
[25:48.320 -> 25:49.920] Just give me a plan A, Ferrari.
[25:49.920 -> 25:51.760] What fucking plans have they got, man?
[25:51.760 -> 25:53.040] Genuinely.
[25:53.040 -> 25:54.200] I think Tommy said at one point
[25:54.200 -> 25:56.040] in one of the more recent races,
[25:56.040 -> 25:57.840] he was like, oh, I bet Ferrari are gonna come over
[25:57.840 -> 25:59.400] with like plan F or something.
[25:59.400 -> 26:00.800] And they came up with like plan E.
[26:00.800 -> 26:04.240] And it's like, give us a break.
[26:04.240 -> 26:05.920] I just want one normal race weekend.
[26:05.920 -> 26:07.880] Hopefully Spa this weekend.
[26:07.880 -> 26:09.480] Just want a victory.
[26:09.480 -> 26:12.760] Fab said that he thinks Ferrari struggle with that stuff
[26:12.760 -> 26:14.680] because they haven't been at the top for a while.
[26:14.680 -> 26:16.480] Do you think that definitely plays into it?
[26:16.480 -> 26:19.360] Like they're now dealing with being in the lead
[26:19.360 -> 26:21.480] and proper winning races.
[26:21.480 -> 26:23.360] They're not used to being in that position on the grid.
[26:23.360 -> 26:25.360] Yeah, it's weird to say that,
[26:25.360 -> 26:27.640] because Ferrari, they used to dominate
[26:27.640 -> 26:30.160] in the early noughties with Schumacher,
[26:30.160 -> 26:32.240] and it's weird to think that their last
[26:32.240 -> 26:35.240] world championship was in 2007 with Kimi.
[26:35.240 -> 26:36.480] That's 15 years ago.
[26:36.480 -> 26:37.320] Wow, when you put it like that.
[26:37.320 -> 26:39.680] So clearly something is fundamentally wrong,
[26:39.680 -> 26:42.280] because it's not as if they've not had a car
[26:42.280 -> 26:44.240] to challenge since then, because they have.
[26:44.240 -> 26:48.560] They've had Vettel lead y cyfrifol yn 2017,
[26:48.560 -> 26:51.680] a Leclerc yn y cyfrifol yn 2019.
[26:51.680 -> 26:54.320] Felly maen nhw wedi cael gâr da,
[26:54.320 -> 27:00.800] ond mae'n ddiddorol i weld y bydd pethau'n gwrthdaro.
[27:00.800 -> 27:06.800] Un, nid yw'n gallu gael't seem to just favour Leclerc and be like, signs get out the way.
[27:06.800 -> 27:07.960] They just move out.
[27:07.960 -> 27:10.480] None of this, go a bit faster.
[27:10.480 -> 27:12.280] Oh, we're checking, blah, blah, blah.
[27:12.280 -> 27:13.220] Just get him out of the way.
[27:13.220 -> 27:15.040] It's like, you know, they were ruthless with Perez,
[27:15.040 -> 27:16.840] I think in Spain, they just got him out of the way
[27:16.840 -> 27:17.680] when Verstappen was coming through.
[27:17.680 -> 27:19.840] They have to be able to do that to have a winner.
[27:19.840 -> 27:21.440] Yeah, and I know they have done it a little bit
[27:21.440 -> 27:24.480] of Silverstone and, but it's just so tentative.
[27:24.480 -> 27:26.040] They don't, they feel like they don't want to be
[27:26.040 -> 27:27.960] what they were in the past, which is so weird
[27:27.960 -> 27:30.880] because Barrichello, when he was Schumacher's teammate,
[27:30.880 -> 27:33.080] he disappeared off the racetrack
[27:33.080 -> 27:34.640] as soon as Schumacher got anywhere near him.
[27:34.640 -> 27:36.520] You know, he was always, yeah, come through Michael.
[27:36.520 -> 27:38.040] It was always for the good of the championship,
[27:38.040 -> 27:40.560] always for the good of Michael being that number one.
[27:40.560 -> 27:42.440] And Leclerc, I know he didn't beat Sainz
[27:42.440 -> 27:43.760] in the championship last year,
[27:43.760 -> 27:46.020] but you know, there's a lot of bad luck. And a lot of people are like, oh, Sainz in the championship last year, but there's a lot of bad luck and a lot of people are like,
[27:46.020 -> 27:48.020] oh, Sainz is the better teammate.
[27:48.020 -> 27:48.860] No, he's not.
[27:48.860 -> 27:51.460] And let's actually look at what he's done this year.
[27:51.460 -> 27:53.940] Leclerc has been fast at almost every single race weekend
[27:53.940 -> 27:56.500] and yet Ferrari still are incapable to go-
[27:56.500 -> 27:57.700] Do you think they're just unwilling to set a 1-2?
[27:57.700 -> 27:59.340] Front foot forward, yeah.
[27:59.340 -> 28:01.580] I don't know, I don't get it, I don't understand.
[28:01.580 -> 28:04.140] Because we just felt like so many of the teams now have gone,
[28:04.140 -> 28:07.920] because there's been, you know, like Sainz won a race, has Sainz won a race this season? Sainz has won a race this season. I don't understand. We just felt like so many of the teams now have gone because there's been, you know, like signs, one of the signs, one of the races, the signs has one.
[28:07.920 -> 28:09.120] Yeah. Yeah.
[28:09.120 -> 28:13.480] We felt like some of the teams have just not been able to settle one to, I mean,
[28:13.480 -> 28:15.400] Red Bull clearly look like they do.
[28:15.400 -> 28:19.040] And, you know, Verstappen will get the, we'll get to go for if he needs to.
[28:19.560 -> 28:23.880] But I do reckon if like Perez was winning, I don't reckon that then if he was winning
[28:23.880 -> 28:26.200] by quite a bit, I don't reckon they'd switch it back
[28:26.200 -> 28:27.920] just so he got the points.
[28:27.920 -> 28:30.880] But it seems like Ferrari really aren't able
[28:30.880 -> 28:32.520] to see who's a one-two.
[28:32.520 -> 28:34.720] Surely that's gotta be a big problem within,
[28:34.720 -> 28:37.760] we're new fans, so we've never seen it in the highest before.
[28:37.760 -> 28:39.800] We started watching Drive and Survive season one again
[28:39.800 -> 28:40.920] the other night, just to like,
[28:40.920 -> 28:43.120] because when we first watched it, we knew nothing.
[28:43.120 -> 28:44.600] So now that we know a little bit about it,
[28:44.600 -> 28:45.800] it's nice to like rehash and
[28:45.800 -> 28:49.840] go back and check everything out and seeing the, the Ricardo and Verstappen
[28:50.000 -> 28:51.360] thing that was going on at Red Bull.
[28:51.800 -> 28:52.720] It's very similar.
[28:52.720 -> 28:54.560] I feel like to what's going on with Ferrari.
[28:54.560 -> 28:55.760] Like they were kind of-
[28:55.800 -> 28:58.200] When he went into the back of him in Azerbaijan.
[28:58.240 -> 28:58.680] Yeah.
[28:58.680 -> 29:02.080] They had Verstappen who was just like new emerging talent who they knew he was good.
[29:02.080 -> 29:03.320] And they wanted like, wanted to push him.
[29:03.320 -> 29:05.800] But then Ricardo is like, what about me?
[29:05.800 -> 29:06.700] Sort of thing as well.
[29:06.700 -> 29:08.080] So you can see how it gets,
[29:08.080 -> 29:10.120] like there's like a gray area where like,
[29:10.120 -> 29:11.520] when you do have two blinding,
[29:11.520 -> 29:12.580] blindingly good drivers,
[29:12.580 -> 29:15.980] like how do you decide like who's going to be first?
[29:15.980 -> 29:18.080] Yeah, I guess that's why Danny Rick
[29:18.080 -> 29:19.280] eventually left Red Bull,
[29:19.280 -> 29:20.800] because he couldn't deal with the fact
[29:20.800 -> 29:23.520] that it was becoming and was a Verstappen team.
[29:23.520 -> 29:28.800] But that makes so much sense because you look at Verstappen's results over the last three years and he has the most
[29:28.800 -> 29:34.680] ridiculous stat of you know the last 50 or 55 races weight of his if he hasn't been hit
[29:34.680 -> 29:39.060] or you know got some sort of damage he's been on the podium and that's how big is this trophy
[29:39.060 -> 29:42.560] cabinet he's like 24 or something. Out of the 13 races this season he's won nine of
[29:42.560 -> 29:45.800] them yeah so look at me. Spats!
[29:45.800 -> 29:46.640] Big old spats.
[29:46.640 -> 29:47.460] That was really good.
[29:47.460 -> 29:48.760] You had that on your hand.
[29:48.760 -> 29:49.600] You were like, I'm gonna get that one out of here.
[29:49.600 -> 29:51.040] That was all I had for that whole episode.
[29:51.040 -> 29:51.880] Cheers for watching guys.
[29:51.880 -> 29:53.480] You're gonna get hired by WTF1.
[29:53.480 -> 29:54.400] I can see it coming already.
[29:54.400 -> 29:55.840] Please, we love it.
[29:55.840 -> 29:57.120] Matt's gonna get sacked.
[29:57.120 -> 29:59.240] He's gonna be the new pit stop.
[29:59.240 -> 30:01.360] We'll just swap rounds.
[30:01.360 -> 30:02.200] Should we move now?
[30:02.200 -> 30:03.560] They got podcasts.
[30:03.560 -> 30:04.400] This is a rival one.
[30:04.400 -> 30:05.440] I was like, we should kick that.
[30:05.440 -> 30:08.320] Yeah, true. This is why we invited you over, really.
[30:08.320 -> 30:09.120] Locked doors.
[30:09.120 -> 30:11.120] Oh, it's coming again!
[30:11.120 -> 30:14.640] Oh, God, we are so funny!
[30:14.640 -> 30:17.600] That Matt isn't a bad chap either, is he?
[30:17.600 -> 30:20.560] He's alright, yeah, he's quite funny, he's telling some interesting stories.
[30:20.560 -> 30:23.600] I'd love to hear a bit more though, I haven't had enough yet.
[30:23.600 -> 30:30.400] Well, Jake, if you want to hear more from not just us, but this guy, MattWTF1 from the WTF1.
[30:30.400 -> 30:34.520] What, you're telling me there's a way that I can listen to like more of this episode?
[30:34.520 -> 30:36.160] Oh there absolutely is.
[30:36.160 -> 30:37.160] Oh wow.
[30:37.160 -> 30:43.680] All you have to do is click on part 2, which will in theory be above this one on whatever
[30:43.680 -> 30:45.500] device or platform you're listening on.
[30:45.500 -> 30:47.800] Go and listen to part two, hope you enjoy it.
