  Otherwise, we should get a sketchy though. I know
• 0:04
  I was like that cars went way too fast. Do you like this like they obviously didn't give them any
• 0:09
  But do you think they're like hey?
• 0:11
  Did you think they at least?
• 0:15
  That's pretty good
• 0:16
  Do you think they at least were like hey? No, mm-hmm like let's not just yeah just to finish that kind of thought
• 0:22
  Do you think max is just crumbling under the pressure? Do you think he's gone too comfortable winning?
• 0:25
  He is definitely not performing the way you should be under the pressure. Yeah
• 0:29
  Oh, yeah, he's getting like even more aggressive than like you look at the Lando max of the earlier and now
• 0:36
  Yeah, so just a very racist. He's been a whiner. He is whining
• 0:40
  Do you think the car is actually that bad and I don't think it's like all Red Bulls dirty for doing that every team
• 0:45
  Is trying to get away with that stuff. It's just what you can get away with
• 0:49
  Then right not the horners different story
• 0:52
  But I mean they don't have a lot. They don't have very good spokespeople. Oh
• 0:58
  Max has a little aggressive little no, but I'm definitely along the lines of what you said yeah
• 1:03
  A million cameras on these there is but again
• 1:06
  There's somebody's ass it down and watch why hasn't the FIA caught it because they can't paid to
• 1:12
  Whoa, I mean, that's also part of the other team's responsibility to bring that to light to lance see that is that is a championship
• 1:19
  Mentality, you know just like max he wouldn't give the position up. Yeah
• 1:27
  I actually had this I said this earlier in my chat that my f1 chat that I have okay
• 1:33
  This is kind of big brain a little bit bulb Mick Schumacher is German
• 1:37
  Yeah
• 1:49
  Yeah, but you have Mick Schumacher who's the son of Michael Schumacher team right like his last name carries so much
• 1:55
  Doesn't be so long listen no you gotta hear me out here. Okay, you ready? Follow me follow me make sure to salver
• 2:03
  Why that's it German?
• 2:05
  Oh, that's the argument at least up let's go boys
• 2:20
  Yo, welcome back to banner with the boys a fast laps with the Hungarian GP recap and of course the belt and GP preview
• 2:28
  First off of course we're gonna bring everybody in
• 2:31
  We started across the table last time you know what we started with Joe too. So let's start with Cole Cole
• 2:36
  How's your how's your week been good? Good. That's it. Good. Yeah, I really enjoyed the race another great race
• 2:42
  Um, that was fun to watch and weather updates beautiful. Oh, it is beautiful
• 2:48
  It is beautiful. I think we have a winning record of beautiful days on on podcast nights now
• 2:52
  Maybe no, we're not even bad in 500. I think the first like six or seven were
• 2:57
  It's raining
• 3:00
  Next one we got Joe our co-host Joe. How's it going? It's going well excited to be here excited
• 3:06
  Talk about the race. It was a lot different in terms of like just how the race went
• 3:10
  I feel like there's just a lot of off-track stuff that we can talk about
• 3:14
  So yeah, I decided to get into it. Oh for sure and of course last
• 3:19
  Last but not least Tyler cross table. What's going on? Not much man. Beautiful day outside ready talks on my phone
• 3:25
  It was an exciting race for sure. No exactly super exciting race for us
• 3:30
  To start off, you know qualy getting right into the Hungarian GP by the way
• 3:36
  we'll talk about quality just for a second top three cars separated by
• 3:41
  0.05
• 3:42
  That's pretty wild
• 3:44
  Does anybody know who those top three were though? I can't remember who actually started in the top three. It was Lewis
• 3:50
  Lando and Versteppen if I'm no Lewis Lando and Oscar
• 3:54
  Oh, it was Lando. Oh, okay. Versteppen was fifth. Fifth. I believe yeah, it was Lando and Oscar. You talking about starting
• 4:01
  Yeah, no, I was it was Lando Oscar max Lewis started third. Oh, you're totally right. That's my bad
• 4:08
  So is who sorry?
• 4:10
  Lando Oscar max Lando Oscar max, okay
• 4:13
  I got you. I don't think I've ever even actually you know, I don't think I watch the race
• 4:20
  Yeah, but we all watched it talking about Jeddah right? Yeah
• 4:26
  Let's just after we wake up here a little bit a
• 4:30
  Couple of guys still still finished in the top and boys there a lot to talk about with that
• 4:35
  Obviously Oscar getting his first ever win in f1 followed by Lando and Lewis
• 4:41
  We just won't waste any time and dive right into McLaren
• 4:46
  Let me just
• 4:47
  So obviously Oscar winning, you know, which marks him as the seventh different winner this season
• 4:54
  Do you is there any weird feelings with the win with with the team orders at the end of the race and like honestly
• 5:00
  I kind of want to go one by one because it could change as we you know, everybody's got an opinion here, but
• 5:06
  Should Oscar feel weird should Lando feel weird?
• 5:09
  Are you happy that Lando obeyed team orders, you know, what is what is your take?
• 5:14
  We'll start with Tyler, but what is your take on the whole situation at the end of the race?
• 5:18
  I mean, it's a it's a weird situation, right? It's a situation. No driver ever wants to be in
• 5:23
  No team really wants to be in but the right decision was made the strategy that had Lando come in
• 5:29
  I mean he was trying to undercut Oscar
• 5:30
  But if they would have flipped that Oscar could have still gotten his position gotten back to first
• 5:35
  And then Lando would have had to try to find and catch him anyway
• 5:37
  They specifically did that to give them in the advantage of Lando being out there and then knowing they'll have that one two locked in
• 5:43
  essentially, so
• 5:45
  The decision in the end result makes sense
• 5:49
  But I think they could have gone about it differently and let them race
• 5:53
  Because if you did give Lando the opportunity to try to undercut
• 5:56
  Go ahead. I'm just gonna say but you just said that you were cool
• 6:00
  Essentially you're essentially cool with Lando giving back the position. Yeah. Yeah, you have to if you're Lando
• 6:04
  You have to do it. You can't just obey Tim Warner. But you would have rather him let it let it race it out
• 6:09
  So if Oscar catches him or not because he wasn't catching him
• 6:12
  No, no, no, not but but that was because they did the swaps
• 6:15
  They did the pits in a certain order that allowed Lando to be in first if they would have had let's say Oscar pits first
• 6:20
  He would have had the track position then Lando comes in the second lap. They double stack whatever
• 6:24
  I don't think they would have double stepped. I don't think they were that close but
• 6:27
  But nonetheless, I mean it would have given an opportunity for them to actually battle it out at the end
• 6:32
  And it would have been Lando trying to catch Oscar in that case for sure because Lando at the end of the race had a quicker car
• 6:36
  He proved that oh, yeah against everything that he he made a show out of following team orders
• 6:43
  He was a bit too dramatic about it in my opinion at the end of the day
• 6:46
  It was the strategy you have to do it like if you're going to do it
• 6:49
  Don't put on a show about it like just just do it get it over with and take the one two
• 6:54
  But I don't think you can discredit Oscars win at all. Sure, and I'm not saying we should discredit it
• 6:59
  I mean, he's an f1 winner. You know what I mean? I just feel like there's like this weird
• 7:04
  Not heaviness, but like there's just weird vibe with it like yeah, that's what I'm saying
• 7:08
  I don't think that's deserving. I felt weird about it at the end of it
• 7:11
  Yeah, I would say my take was in the heat of the moment. I understand Lando's reaction
• 7:16
  Oh, yeah, I think that's just I mean he's they're super competitive super, you know, certainly still flowing
• 7:22
  You're just super selfish. I agree in the aspect where they just the way they went about pitting
• 7:27
  It was entirely on the team like they shouldn't have done that. I did it to lock in one two
• 7:32
  Like they did it to solidify the one two
• 7:35
  At the same time when they did that first pit with Lando
• 7:37
  Lewis was 10 seconds behind so I don't think it would have played too much of a factor. Anyway, I would agree
• 7:42
  I don't think it plays any factor. I think they still had the one two locked in
• 7:46
  I think you pit them correctly. Let them race
• 7:49
  Oscar may still pull off the win, but like who cares at this rate?
• 7:52
  I like there should be no asterisks by Oscar race the better race and all that but uh, Oscar got him off the line
• 7:57
  That's what that's what got him the race and that was like his strategy or something
• 8:01
  They kept poking at it like saying that that was their strategy whoever could get off the line first
• 8:06
  That's who they're they were gonna go with like you're going to agree whoever gets the the whole shot gets the
• 8:12
  Yeah, and I and I and I say
• 8:15
  And I say the heat of the moment because as soon as the race was over and he got some time to chill out
• 8:19
  Lando was like no. Yeah, like I was 100% gonna let him buy
• 8:22
  He was just he was kind of process it in the middle of a race going, you know, 200 miles an hour or whatever
• 8:27
  Like I get it. That's tough
• 8:29
  And he only has one win himself
• 8:31
  This one was on this one was on mclaren all day
• 8:33
  I think if you let them race who knows what happens. I think they both race smart to an extent
• 8:37
  I think they give them maybe a little bit to see what happens
• 8:40
  But I think eventually you got to shut it down as a team because this is huge points for mclaren
• 8:46
  No, for sure
• 8:48
  I mean I I agree obviously it is huge points for mclaren
• 8:52
  Does it play any factor at all?
• 8:55
  Into it with lando and like the driver points at all or do you think it's just they're so focused on only team
• 9:00
  You see that's the only thing that I was kind of like and like it's small right in comparison right now
• 9:06
  For mclaren though. I feel like it is in comparison to the constructor championship. That's what they want
• 9:11
  That's like a 20 point swing on uh, verse tap and with where max finished
• 9:15
  I feel like it would have it would have been between one and five eight more points
• 9:21
  What is it 18 for second or 17? 18. It's not every day max is finishing fifth, right?
• 9:26
  Like could he actually catch him? I don't know right but
• 9:29
  But I mean you look at the gap between them right now
• 9:31
  It's I just admit it's 77 points you give landl those eight points
• 9:36
  That's 69 points those eight points when you're getting to this nitty gritty and somebody's
• 9:40
  Sorry, yeah
• 9:40
  Those seven points when you when you get to that nitty gritty at the end of the year that seven points I guarantee will make a matter
• 9:46
  Right will matter it's almost like that was the only the only part that I was
• 9:51
  I was curious while they're doing it because I mean
• 9:53
  If you're gonna have somebody if you're gonna put all your money into one guy on the team to try to win
• 9:57
  The drivers it's lando. So it that was weird. I get
• 10:02
  Also on the other side of it being like let's get oscar's first win
• 10:06
  Like he deserved it. He earned it. I think that also helps him in his standings within the team for oscar
• 10:12
  I think they're pretty locked in with lando and as long as he's on if he's happy we're good
• 10:16
  But I kind of in the same give oscar's win going forward if this ever happens again, which it probably won't
• 10:23
  Get land to the points. Let's get him the drivers. That's my thoughts on it
• 10:27
  Yeah, that was a big thing is like you have one person you have one driver that's actually fighting for the wdc
• 10:32
  Right, like you have one driver oscar has no chance, right?
• 10:35
  Right, it's just simply not going to happen. So you gotta just give that opportunity. You have to take that opportunity
• 10:41
  You have to so you but but give more but your official decision is like
• 10:45
  You're gonna give oscar the one and now going forward. Let's change it and if we're ever in that situation again
• 10:50
  Give it lando. I guess I just look at it this way, right? What's red bull gonna do with max?
• 10:55
  Max that that win is max's if if red bull's in the same shoes and max's lando and oscar's check
• 11:00
  Well, yeah, it's not even it's not even a conversation, especially with how max's attitude was this race. We'll get to that
• 11:06
  Um, but like yeah, that's not even a conversation
• 11:10
  Joe obviously mclaren fan, but what are your feelings on all of this?
• 11:18
  So one two, it's had it has to be mclaren, um
• 11:22
  Cole I completely agree with you. This is 100 on mclaren. Um
• 11:25
  Um on the point where you say will it happen again? They're in a unique position to have the fastest car on the grid and two
• 11:32
  Very good drivers if it does happen again, they need to realize that and just they need to fix it
• 11:37
  I'm of the opinion that because lando was so far ahead five seconds granted. He wasn't in danger of getting
• 11:45
  You need the
• 11:46
  Lewis was not close behind oscar. So he's not in danger. He shouldn't have to give up five seconds
• 11:52
  That's that's that that hurt. I was I was like, I don't know if he's good
• 11:55
  I don't know if like lando he should give it because his team is asking him to but like
• 11:59
  But hold on on that when they first told him to give it up. He was like 2.7. Yeah
• 12:04
  Yeah, this is my let me finish
• 12:07
  He was 3.7 lando should have in my like mind palace of strategy
• 12:13
  Lando should have given it to oscar right away
• 12:17
  First of all mclaren should have not undercut oscar just straight out of the chair of the box
• 12:21
  But lando should have given it back to oscar maybe let them fight at the end of the race as long as they don't you know
• 12:27
  Kill each other on the on the track. Could you imagine and I don't think I don't think they would have I don't think
• 12:32
  I don't think mclaren would have let them fight and thinking after it team orders would have come into effect
• 12:36
  At some point, but if if lando's truly faster than oscar and he's like riding his ass the entire race
• 12:43
  They gotta let him through right? I mean, it's really good to see oscar win
• 12:46
  I hate to see him win that way. I'm not discrediting it for 75 of that race. He was the winner
• 12:53
  110 percent but he won because someone gave it to him at the at the like the penultimate lap
• 12:58
  That's got to feel bad. You're hurting his voice. He wasn't cheering and everything granted a few a few days after i'm like
• 13:04
  I've him on instagram. He seemed to be taking a little bit more was hitting him a little bit more
• 13:08
  He's he's really happy about it
• 13:10
  But right then and there he apologized on his on his winning radio message to the team saying sorry made it so hard like
• 13:17
  Like that shouldn't be someone who just won their first they're made in win, right? That's not how how he should have won it
• 13:23
  Um still incredibly happy for him. I think he's got way more wins to come. He's still like this is a second year
• 13:29
  I'm i'm seeing wdc levels from him honestly
• 13:33
  But man his his maiden win definitely not the one that I would have I would have wanted to see
• 13:37
  Yeah, that radio message sucked to hear like hey, sorry like came down to this
• 13:41
  But I mean in terms of how i'm gonna be like being super emotional
• 13:43
  You have never once seen oscar in any setting where he's not just the most mellow
• 13:48
  He's like the definition of just like like chill as a cucumber right a new kimmy. He's yeah
• 13:53
  He's just like maybe not a kimmy's level. He's a little bit more teeth than kimmy, but
• 13:59
  He's uh, but he's he's always that cool and calm collected
• 14:02
  He's like he's never shows any emotion one way or another even on the radio if he's like yelling at somebody
• 14:06
  To f off it. So it's just like f off
• 14:10
  Like what was that? You're right, but I mean it's probably just how like cool feel you're right
• 14:14
  He is definitely cool about it
• 14:16
  But there was just another element there and that's like
• 14:19
  I think he I think he knows he deserved it. I think everyone knows he deserved it
• 14:22
  Like there's no arguing that but like the way he got it just kind of sucked
• 14:26
  It just had a weird vibe for like 30 minutes post-race
• 14:29
  And then i'm sure everything started easing over and whatever but I like I agree with you is the emotion in the voice like
• 14:34
  As he's still on his you know coming in I just I don't know something seemed definitely off
• 14:39
  But I I liked how the f1 announcers were keeping it real though
• 14:43
  Like a lot of sports could have blown this up a lot worse
• 14:46
  But when lando and them were having the radio messages, they just kept letting it play kept letting it play
• 14:51
  You could tell it was getting a lot more escalated from the engineer and the f1 uh announcers were like
• 14:56
  You're not getting rid of lando. What are we doing here?
• 14:59
  What's the worst you're gonna do to this guy?
• 15:01
  Yeah, they just like kept it real. That was cool. I just like yeah
• 15:04
  Because they were they were talking about how it happened to dc and he like he had to give it up for to give it was
• 15:09
  Hiking in I think it was his first win. Actually. I think it was almost the exact same situation
• 15:14
  And dc like he's like looking back at it now. I wouldn't do it again
• 15:18
  Yeah, but he was fighting for a seed. I mean he was like trying to keep that seat
• 15:21
  But it's the same so lando doesn't give it up. What are they gonna do to lando?
• 15:25
  Yeah, they're definitely not they're gonna get him a stern talking to probably and he's gonna be painted as a bad guy
• 15:31
  By fans, unfortunately and then start brown again our tattoo. Yeah, probably for two days
• 15:36
  Then the fans like it's lando. Yeah, so
• 15:38
  I I think it's good that mclaren had like they had this planned out
• 15:42
  They said he's they said to him like hey we talked about like in morning meetings if this scenario happens
• 15:48
  You gotta work it out this way
• 15:50
  Um, but again their strategy did not support that
• 15:54
  You know, they they gave him the undercut and they put themselves in that position
• 15:57
  So mclaren just needs to do a better job knowing that they're the best team on the grid and they don't have a
• 16:01
  Checo max situation where one car is always going to be behind
• 16:05
  I think oscar's going to keep fighting lando
• 16:07
  I think lando is probably going to beat him most of the time but also is going to be up there
• 16:10
  So he I mean you called this last week. He needs to get his whole shot figured out here. Yeah
• 16:20
  So I think that's the easy solution for mclaren if you're in that position
• 16:23
  You're at one two who goes to the first corner, right that because at that point like lando wasn't racing oscar after that point
• 16:30
  He actually dropped back. I believe I think versapin got up to second if i'm not mistaken into that coming into that first
• 16:35
  Oh, no versapin because he got pushed wide because oscar came in the inside
• 16:42
  But he got up to second because he came on the outside
• 16:44
  Yeah advantage and then they gave it up and then he had switched back and that's when max's complaint started
• 16:48
  Yeah, that's when his bickering on the first lap
• 16:50
  Hip
• 16:53
  And then I think lewis actually got by
• 16:56
  Lando too and then lando got back by him. Yeah, lewis jumped up
• 16:59
  Because he was he started fifth. He jumped up. He got ahead of science. He jumped up two spots after the first, uh turn
• 17:04
  Did he really was it two spots?
• 17:09
  Yeah, because he went up to him because he went up to and max went down one lewis lewis went down
• 17:14
  Went up. So did lewis get carlos right off the jump then? Yeah. Yeah, okay
• 17:18
  Yeah, and then and then I do remember lando. Yeah, I do remember lando falling behind. Yeah, you're right lando fell behind
• 17:24
  Lewis and then got right past him like third corner again. Yeah, it was on that first lap. Yep
• 17:30
  Okay
• 17:31
  Well like with that, let's just let's just talk about lewis and mercedes
• 17:34
  Obviously lewis getting another podium second in a row. Whoa
• 17:40
  Career podium 200th career podium. That's that's nuts
• 17:45
  Just racing clean
• 17:46
  Oh for sure. Yeah, that's obvious and got dicey at the end, but super clean. Yeah. Yeah
• 17:53
  Wasn't his fault
• 17:54
  Well, let's let's talk about that moment quit up quick. Obviously. We'll uh talk about red bull a little bit again
• 18:00
  But with that incident, is there any fault to lewis in that at all?
• 18:04
  No that you can see I mean, that's no that's just max dive bombing like if you're gonna race aggressive like that
• 18:10
  expect it back
• 18:12
  it's
• 18:14
  And we'll jump into max in a second. Obviously, but um,
• 18:17
  With this, I mean lewis is just racing his race. This guy died bond him locked up
• 18:22
  Like just keep racing your race
• 18:24
  There's one other driver that would have taken the same approach if it was to happen on the grid right now and it's elcon
• 18:29
  Right. Nobody's gonna be that aggressive. You know what I mean? Like anybody else is just gonna keep the it's like like he didn't have it
• 18:36
  There's like 10 laps left still
• 18:37
  I mean you you had good pace if you really wanted to pass him the right way you had good
• 18:41
  You had decent pace to him. You just keep going down that keep knocking away some of the rs
• 18:46
  Push that keep knocking away some of the rs eventually you have an easier pass
• 18:49
  That one was just so aggressive and then like when the stewards looked at it or whatever like lewis had the same
• 18:55
  Had the same racing line as he had all race like there was a slight twitch though was there when like
• 19:01
  Yeah, it was right. There was like a slight twitch inside
• 19:04
  Yeah, like towards towards versat. Yeah, it wouldn't affected him hitting him exactly
• 19:09
  But that's why I don't think it ended up being anything is because it was like is but I think that's why
• 19:14
  Verstappen didn't get penalized is because of that last little switch. Oh
• 19:19
  Sketchy though, huh?
• 19:22
  I was like, oh that car's going way too fast to be like this like they obviously didn't give them any penalty
• 19:27
  But do you think they're like hey
• 19:29
  Did you think they at least?
• 19:32
  That's pretty good
• 19:34
  Do you think they at least were like hey, no
• 19:36
  Mm-hmm like let's not again or do you think it's just like who just no penalty different staff and at least like no
• 19:41
  Talk to him a little bit the stores do it. Yeah, just like hey, uh
• 19:46
  What like what the hell is that? Have they ever before and has it made a difference?
• 19:51
  Going in one year and out the other it's not like they're not we're not gonna wait
• 19:54
  He was he was talking like he was talking smack about the stewards before he even got to him, you know
• 19:59
  Well, yeah
• 20:00
  He's like just tell the stewards that we can run people off the track now or whatever and well
• 20:05
  That's how we're gonna race that was off the bat
• 20:07
  What was that? Well, let's wait till we get in days. We'll get into max's. Yeah. Anyway, yeah, we're we're going off base here
• 20:13
  But yeah
• 20:14
  Um, I guess since we're still on mercedes we can talk about george
• 20:18
  He did end up getting the fastest lap at the end of the race. It was kind of
• 20:22
  Wild it was going between him and checo a little bit. Um, but george ended up grabbing it
• 20:27
  Did he end p2 on qualifying?
• 20:29
  george
• 20:30
  He he didn't get into he did not get into q2. He was q3. He okay. He's knocked down
• 20:34
  I knew he was low, but it's tough man. It's the second year in a row
• 20:38
  He's gotten knocked out in q1 in hungary. It's like he doesn't perform good at this track for whatever reason
• 20:45
  Yeah for him to climb up from what was it it was
• 20:48
  16th, I believe
• 20:49
  Oh, it was yeah. No, he was really low at one point might even been 17th
• 20:53
  But he was really low at one point when the time back into points, especially with like mercedes right now
• 20:59
  Obviously them and uh mcclaren looked very good
• 21:02
  When you're when you're looking this good right now, you've got to take advantage of these spots like it sucks
• 21:07
  That you sucked last year here
• 21:09
  but like these are the races you got to take advantage of because
• 21:12
  In a blink of an eye, they could be you know, the fourth fastest car out there
• 21:16
  Sure, so that that just kind of sucks for george to to do that. But yeah
• 21:22
  Yeah, just it's not a good track for now. It's not a good track though
• 21:25
  It's tough when the car's so good and they've raced so good the last two weeks. Why now?
• 21:28
  Like figure something out this weekend and like who am I right? I'm no pro driver obviously
• 21:34
  But it's just like if you know like that's a problem for you
• 21:36
  Like you think that'd be a I don't know how they train or whatever in the offseason whatever a little bit more something
• 21:42
  Yeah, something something right?
• 21:44
  Um, let's head right into ferrari
• 21:47
  With leclerc finishing p4 and carlos finishing p6
• 21:51
  Uh, that's a little bit of a better showing from ferrari than uh, we've been seeing
• 21:56
  um, but the upgrades or
• 21:59
  I don't I didn't want to call them down grades, but going back to the old the old grades
• 22:03
  Yeah, the old grades. They still don't have the pace with top three teams. I don't think no
• 22:07
  They're not in the top being mcclaren red bull and um mercedes. They don't have the pace right now for him still
• 22:12
  I mean if it wasn't for that whole thing with max and lewis
• 22:17
  he
• 22:18
  Lewis or lou or verstappen would at least spin third or fourth
• 22:21
  So I mean leclerc was getting passed pretty easy out there. Is this is this season becoming a lost cause for ferrari at this point?
• 22:28
  I don't know because they have two race wins
• 22:30
  Which is crazy to think about at this point and they're not that I mean, we've already talked about mcclaren
• 22:35
  Obviously, so I mean the points wise you looked it up, but uh ferrari jumped or ferrari got jumped by
• 22:41
  mcclaren, but that means mcclaren's still pretty high in the points
• 22:45
  So I don't think they can it can't be a lost season for them
• 22:48
  Yeah, it would take a lot for mercedes to catch ferrari. I mean ferrari's at 322 mercedes is at 241
• 22:54
  So there's still 61 points behind them sure 81 points. Sorry, and where's mcclaren?
• 22:59
  Uh compared to ferrari 338 versus 322 so that's only 16 points. Yeah
• 23:04
  Yeah, they just passed them this last right do you think ferrari can catch back up to him or at this point?
• 23:09
  Is this I think it's just mcclaren's too fast
• 23:12
  I think mcclaren's gonna have the constructors by the end of the year, which is crazy to think about I would agree
• 23:16
  And I don't think
• 23:18
  But it's it's not in the aspect of ferrari
• 23:21
  I don't think ferrari's going to give up on this season just because their car's not performing right now
• 23:25
  I think
• 23:27
  They can still probably hold on to a third
• 23:30
  Yeah this year. It's gonna take a lot out of mercedes cut more wins out of them
• 23:33
  I think they still hold on to third but it might be more of like let's maintain this. Let's stay here
• 23:38
  Let's let's try to you know, are they are they let's try to split the mercedes drivers stuff like that
• 23:42
  Like let's just race mark. Are they happy maintaining third rather than like risking a little bit more to try to climb back into that second race
• 23:49
  You know, I mean when you have like the mcclaren's the mer the mcclaren's and the mercedes making the upgrades
• 23:55
  They've mad the last number of weeks and far has to revert backwards
• 24:00
  You're not competing at that point
• 24:02
  You're just you're just at this level that you're just you're so far behind in which you're putting your money towards or whatever
• 24:08
  You're like allocating you spent all the time to get this upgrade didn't work. You're reverting backwards
• 24:14
  It's
• 24:15
  They're just so far behind that car does not have the speed of even the red bull
• 24:19
  I mean the red bull is still up there. I mean max is driving the hell out of it right now and the red bull is starting to
• 24:24
  Become the third fastest car on the track. I think it is right now
• 24:27
  It is you think I think no matter what the mercedes is above the red bull right now right now
• 24:32
  Well, I don't know that's hard to say because these last couple of tracks have been, you know mercedes tracks
• 24:36
  They've been the low speed corners, which mercedes has always excelled in other than george this race, but right right right right
• 24:42
  But he did come in terms of the car. It's like the car is designed more for these tracks
• 24:46
  So, I don't know
• 24:47
  We'll see when we get to those high speed like the road tracks for our red bull always does good in
• 24:51
  They seem they seem to have lost a lot of race pace. So yeah, definitely which they used to have
• 24:57
  I think they still have like I think the reason we still see max in the top three in quality is because they still have
• 25:01
  like that
• 25:02
  That one lap speed and they still have the straight line speed like the drs zones and the best driver on the grid
• 25:09
  Are so the drs arguably debatable. It's all I would say that's very arguable right now at this point the drs
• 25:15
  So their drs is just so damn good. Yeah, that's that's like that's it for them right now. I think
• 25:21
  Because they're like they're not dominating any other parts of the track the last couple races
• 25:25
  Other than you know, drs zones. Do you think max has gotten? I we can't talk about rebel yet. Sorry
• 25:30
  We're still talking about ferrari. I mean, I mean, oh, there's not much else
• 25:34
  Yeah, let's just hop into red bull. There's not much else to talk about ferrari
• 25:37
  So why don't you just yeah just to finish that kind of thought
• 25:39
  Do you think max is just crumbling under the pressure? Do you think he's gotten too comfortable winning?
• 25:43
  He is definitely not performing the way you should be under the pressure. Yeah, I would yeah
• 25:47
  He's getting like even more aggressive than like you look at the lando max of the earlier and now
• 25:54
  Yeah, so just a very last couple races. He's been a whiner. He is whining
• 25:57
  Do you think the car is actually that bad or do you think he is just like I said?
• 26:04
  Hey, check. Oh took seven check. Oh did what he needed to do this race. I'll give that to him
• 26:08
  Like he obviously didn't make it in qualifying, but he did what he needed to do in the race
• 26:11
  It's definitely not the car though. That's what i'm saying. There's no way he takes seven to the bad car
• 26:16
  About that though. I mean I was gonna go in and do it in the news later
• 26:19
  But did you have I don't know if you guys have seen it all but there was a uh, it was like a spanish
• 26:22
  Broadcaster or something. He said that red bull actually had a like a malfunction
• 26:26
  uh, uh, what's it called, uh
• 26:29
  Something illegal on their car that they've
• 26:33
  Yeah
• 26:34
  There was like there was there was rumors of it that like they went to the like the couple of teams complained to the fia
• 26:39
  And then the fi caught it and that's when red bull's decline has kind of started
• 26:43
  They don't get any points knocked off for the year
• 26:46
  No, you just got to take the it was like it hasn't been confirmed or anything. So if nothing's been confirmed
• 26:50
  So if that comes out there was the rumors have it that it's like over break
• 26:53
  It's going to sit there and then something like that might happen
• 26:56
  But or they just like when they do a test because it's whenever you have like the fia just does random checks on your cars
• 27:01
  Or whatever
• 27:02
  So if that slipped through the cracks every time the fia is checked that's on the fia for sure
• 27:06
  If it's brought to their attention, then it's caught and it's deemed illegal
• 27:10
  No actions taken besides take this off your car. You can't use this going forward
• 27:13
  It's on us kind of that we didn't catch this it took another team coming to us to do it
• 27:18
  But I heard the same thing about mcclaren and their tires
• 27:20
  And that's why there's tape on them. Have you guys seen this too? Yep. I saw that too. I saw that too
• 27:26
  So it's a similar thing, but i've heard about my um
• 27:28
  So the red bull one has been like very hush hush as everything always is with red bull. What's your dark web?
• 27:32
  But it was uh, so it was it was it was a broadcaster. He actually said it in spanish on air during the race
• 27:38
  It was live coverage of it
• 27:39
  And he said he's confirmed by like three teams that he has personally talked to
• 27:43
  He I think he must be a former f1 driver. He has he's obviously in the sports in some way shape or form
• 27:47
  But like that's very interesting that like they were doing something that they were getting away with and then boom and then boom your car's
• 27:54
  performances out the window
• 27:57
  I think that'd be hilarious
• 27:59
  And I don't think it's like all red bull's dirty for doing that every team is trying to get away with that stuff
• 28:03
  It's just what you can get away with before you're caught
• 28:07
  Not horners different story, but
• 28:11
  I mean they don't have a lot they don't have very good spokespeople marco
• 28:13
  Horner max happen like a little aggressive little no, but i'm definitely along the lines of what you said
• 28:19
  It was it's more on the fia for not catching it to this point
• 28:22
  So like obviously if it's illegal now and then they use it. Yeah, then they're dirty for sure
• 28:26
  Then that you're obviously clearly trying to cheat
• 28:29
  But you could argue that you're still trying to cheat the system now by trying to get away with as much as possible
• 28:34
  Yeah, but everybody but then back on the fia not catching it. So it's it's a whole cycle
• 28:38
  But my only issue is in the past when this happened they have penalized points like driver points
• 28:44
  No, it's that's a that's it's a lot different though
• 28:47
  It's like if you it's if you continue to do it like right haas had that penalty earlier this year because their drs
• 28:52
  Flap was too high
• 28:53
  They had to start the both had to start in the back of the grid or whatever it was
• 28:57
  But it was that was the thing it was like it's I think it depends on the infringement what it crosses
• 29:01
  It's the fia has so many damn rules
• 29:03
  Yeah, and like this habit is applies to this but not to this and what you can actually get away with
• 29:10
  If it comes to light that red bull is act was actually like driving illegally
• 29:14
  Like all the teams are going to jump on the fia to like do something about it
• 29:18
  Oh, yeah
• 29:18
  That's like it very well could come to that depending on the severity of it
• 29:21
  But nothing's been confirmed by the fia for any of this for so everything speculation at this point
• 29:25
  This could all just be some absolute bull crap because it's silly season
• 29:28
  I just think it's I think it's just tough to do like post-punishment on that. You know what I mean? Like
• 29:32
  Like it happened. It's already done like
• 29:35
  Yeah, because what would it be exactly? It is smart to do post-punishment on that
• 29:40
  They would look at it. It would be like a point docking. It would be I don't know if they can dock points
• 29:46
  I think they're gonna give them a huge fine if if it's found that it was yeah, it's red bull. I know but got it here
• 29:53
  Yeah, it's just again if a player is getting fined it's the same thing. Yeah
• 29:57
  Yeah, I I think on race infringements like on track infringements like that
• 30:01
  That definitely need to be handled with like points and stuff. I just don't know if they can take points away
• 30:07
  So they might just be hit with like and i'm when I say large fine. I mean like giant fine
• 30:13
  Because if if they got wins from this like that's crazy. Well, like if I got a hundred dollar fine today
• 30:19
  That'd be a giant fine for me. Well, i'm talking like hundreds of millions
• 30:23
  No, they never did that
• 30:26
  well
• 30:27
  They're trying to make red bull the next williams. There's a bank just doing your
• 30:32
  Boy, you're like see
• 30:34
  The single fine the only time it's really happened where a team's been docked points before it was 15 constructor points
• 30:40
  It was actually back in 2020 when aster racing point at the time got caught copying mercedes car
• 30:45
  $400,000 fine and then they were docked 15 points, but that's because it was like an exact replica
• 30:49
  It was that was actually in job to survive. Yeah. Yeah, but it was like an exact like replica of their car
• 30:55
  It was they didn't because there's there's rules that say you can't have an old car and make it you have to build certain
• 31:00
  Components and have different variations, but they literally like bought the old mercedes car
• 31:06
  Blueprints off total he talked about in the thing. Yeah, it was and and then they stole a bunch of their was paint like team
• 31:13
  So it was literally because it was jokes like
• 31:16
  Looking mirrors outside was painted pink or whatever the heck color they were
• 31:20
  Like this, yeah, it was a pink mercedes and then they got copying the the green red bull a few years after
• 31:28
  That team just likes copying that's interesting. So maybe maybe point deductions if it you know
• 31:32
  But there's been so many other times where people do those infringements happen and then it's just you can't
• 31:37
  You wonder over what duration though?
• 31:39
  Because this this if if this is true, then it seems like it's over a pretty long duration
• 31:43
  But you wouldn't know because they didn't catch it. So how do you know how long they've been doing it? That's the only issue
• 31:48
  Yeah, they probably can't million cameras on these there is but but again, there's somebody's just sit down and watch
• 31:53
  Why hasn't the fia caught it because they're getting paid too
• 31:57
  Whoa, whoa, I'm just joking, but I mean but it's also part of the other team's responsibility to bring that to light, too
• 32:04
  Yeah, absolutely. And it sounds like they have been trying who knows I heard I heard stuff about mclaren red bull
• 32:09
  I heard the mclaren one was there and one you could visibly see the basically see the tape dude is a lot nothing
• 32:15
  They just covered that thing up
• 32:17
  um, obviously with red bull we all heard max's
• 32:23
  I mean attitude I guess just kind of a sass up and down and domestic with his engineer
• 32:29
  verbally domestic yeah, like like just
• 32:33
  Verbally, what's we're watching?
• 32:36
  Assaulting his engineer. We watched a domestic happen
• 32:39
  F1 race like so with that
• 32:42
  At max was up until like 3 a.m. The night before don't get me wrong
• 32:46
  We all stay up till 3 a.m
• 32:47
  And get up and go to work in two hours on ua, right?
• 32:49
  But i'm just saying like max was up doing like this 24 hour race for like his online team or whatever some team he raised for
• 32:57
  Like the night before the gp like is that like a big no no like what are you doing?
• 33:02
  He can do it. He can do it. He can do it. He does it almost every race
• 33:05
  He has done it a while like I've heard the first why is it a big deal?
• 33:08
  It was a big deal before the race though before we knew he was gonna have a little attitude problem all race like
• 33:14
  Are we talking about video game? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, what's going on right now? I haven't heard this so
• 33:18
  Versapin's he was he was he has an esim racing team that he plays for they do 24 hour races and they do like
• 33:23
  Six hour stints dude gets out of a car and races
• 33:26
  So literally like he's done it multiple times after he won a couple races
• 33:30
  Like the after he won a race a couple weekends ago. He literally hopped in a six hour sim
• 33:34
  Two weekends before that it was after quali he hopped in a six hour sim then won the race the next day
• 33:40
  He's a big part of this eracing team. They're making money. Oh, I'm guaranteed through sponsorships and that kind of thing
• 33:47
  Just change up position he's going in this thing, right?
• 33:50
  This seems crazy, but it's also like in the morning. Yeah, that's what it said. Yeah, but it's max
• 33:56
  We're starting the race start though over there in the afternoon. I think so it wasn't that bad
• 34:01
  That's so mad. So so let's say the race starts at three local time
• 34:04
  He's max is getting up at 230 just slapping it on and running out the door. I do every morning. He's looking
• 34:10
  Eight hours get up by one go
• 34:13
  We could you're you got it. You're prepping more than two hours before for an f1 race, but maybe for a nascar race
• 34:19
  I can't even probably just get in there
• 34:21
  I'm just saying some of those guys are athletes too. Just saying but only stewards good looking guy. Wow
• 34:27
  Yeah, whoa
• 34:29
  Tyler's taking it a whole
• 34:33
  Well, it did
• 34:34
  Um, all right, uh before we move on from red bull obviously check. I'll finishing seventh a little better showing for him
• 34:40
  I mean if red bull's truly the
• 34:44
  Fourth no, i'm sorry the third fastest car then best finish for him could be sixth
• 34:49
  so seventh this
• 34:50
  Is all right racing out of his mind last week. I know he was
• 34:54
  I know he was he started 16th. Yeah, he climbed his way up. He climbed his way up after he wrecked dude
• 35:02
  That guy has cost that team more money than he's making them. I'll tell you that kev actually sent me
• 35:06
  I think a diagram earlier today about like the people who've who cost the most money
• 35:11
  And I think check was right at the top. It's called the destructor saying yeah
• 35:15
  Destructor said who was second on that list? I don't know. It's got to be k-maker ocon or something
• 35:20
  No, I think it was like uh, or sergeant now
• 35:23
  Yeah, sergeant's up there. That's albon. Yeah, it's it's checko albon joe sergeant. Danny rick
• 35:30
  Wait albon really? Yeah, he's he's
• 35:33
  It's called the car remember he had to get logan's car that weekend
• 35:37
  That was a whole chassis they had to replace not a cheap i'm sure he's been through one or two p.us
• 35:42
  Uh from red bull we go to racing bulls
• 35:45
  uh
• 35:46
  yuki, I mean
• 35:48
  Got got himself into points, but uh
• 35:51
  Danny rick couldn't quite make it happen
• 35:53
  Uh could not get past those astans
• 35:56
  um
• 35:57
  I guess i'm not that surprised by it to be honest with you since friaries were kind of back in that top eight area
• 36:03
  He's gonna push somebody out danny rick's gonna go and as we saw one of the astans went which I did not see happening
• 36:08
  I figured yuki would maybe fall out and we'd see another
• 36:12
  alonzo stroll instead to round it out, but um
• 36:16
  I guess I don't really have cra- anything crazy to say about the racing bulls, but joe screwed danny
• 36:21
  Yeah, I was gonna say somebody put down that the strategy messed danny. Yeah
• 36:25
  They pitted him super super super early and then he wasn't able to recover
• 36:29
  And then because he came out afterwards that he was like 0.22 seconds faster than yuki
• 36:34
  There's a oh really and then uh, yeah, it was and then like you too. Yeah
• 36:38
  He was 0.22 seconds faster than yuki a lap I think on average or something. Yeah. Yeah. Wow
• 36:43
  Um, so it was well, it's like race pace. Yeah, sure sure so I don't know what technically goes into that but
• 36:49
  um
• 36:50
  And then he wasn't able to recover because the the pit screwed him
• 36:53
  He wasn't able to wasn't able to bounce back. It was such an early pit. I must have missed that. I must have totally missed that
• 36:57
  It was like lap seven or eight wasn't it?
• 37:00
  Yeah, it was super early super early because I think they started him on the soft
• 37:03
  What would be the point of doing what would be the point of doing that then like if you're racing bulls why
• 37:07
  And you just like ah screw it. We made a mistake with what we started you on bad strategy
• 37:11
  Yeah, but but I heard uh yuki's wreck in
• 37:15
  quali
• 37:16
  Was like 68
• 37:18
  whatever you call that
• 37:20
  68
• 37:22
  knots or whatever like I don't know what
• 37:24
  Oh, yeah, yeah, which was more it was a harder impact
• 37:29
  Than uh grozgene when he did it had that crazy wreck really for haas. It was a harder impact than that gosh
• 37:36
  That's insane. It was like one of the hardest wrecks
• 37:38
  Isn't it insane how hard you can hit in these cars and these guys are fine and he came out got points the next day
• 37:44
  Yeah, that's that's nuts. It was yeah, it's harder than grozgene
• 37:47
  Grozgene yeah grozhan roman roman grozgene
• 37:51
  Yeah, I saw that was just see how those grozhan's grozgene
• 37:54
  Uh, it's french, dude. I don't know he did he did okay in his first couple indy car races this year
• 38:04
  Moving along to astin's we just kind of mentioned them obviously one of them getting into points that being stroll of all people
• 38:11
  He's always outperforming dude. He's
• 38:13
  Hey, it's horse. Oh, yeah
• 38:18
  What?
• 38:20
  Stroll is yeah, they they literally let stroll past
• 38:24
  Alonzo to see if he could catch yuki and if he couldn't catch yuki they were supposed to swap positions back
• 38:29
  So alonzo got the point for tenth and stroll didn't switch and how far back?
• 38:34
  Was gonna switch. Uh, he just I don't know if there was nothing was on the comms because it was all the mclaren drama and the max
• 38:41
  Complaining right right right so
• 38:44
  I saw that it was like stroll came up and I didn't see any
• 38:47
  And like alonzo was visibly upset when they got out of the cars. He was like yelling at his team
• 38:51
  He was oh he was throwing his he threw his jacket on the ground and like yeah
• 38:56
  I didn't see this. I was because there was another ascent sorry that I wanted to look up
• 38:59
  So i'm on a page that's talking about it
• 39:01
  Uh a reminder from the team on the final lap was met with no response from stroll as he crossed the finish line
• 39:06
  Lance is probably like I pay your bills dude lancey that is that is a championship mentality
• 39:10
  You know just like max he wouldn't give the position up. Yeah, you know
• 39:15
  Championship mentality from the
• 39:19
  The uh the last thing actually now that we're talking about alonzo after the fact getting upset. I didn't see that
• 39:24
  It is funny. It was like temper tantrum because we skipped out on this
• 39:28
  Uh, did you guys see after the race in the uh, the winner's box, whatever you call that?
• 39:33
  Uh, cool down room the cool down room what happened between uh, lando and lando. Yeah. Yeah
• 39:37
  Yeah, you go seven years ago. You had that too and he goes dude. It was a compliment. You're fast out there
• 39:44
  Yeah, I think lando was just like fired
• 39:46
  I know it's in the heart of the heat of emotion
• 39:47
  I'm gonna chalk it up to like adrenaline and heat of the motion and like he's still upset probably that through that second place hat
• 39:53
  Down he didn't get through the hat
• 39:56
  louis with the
• 39:57
  Yeah, I can't blame him and then that's when he came with the compliment like trying to maybe ease it over and then yeah
• 40:03
  Lando, so he used to go you guys were the fastest easy louis's rebuttal to that was like were you even here seven years ago?
• 40:13
  But it was like genuine he was like he was actually like wondering like we even here seven years ago
• 40:17
  Yeah, and then he just goes dude. I was it's just a compliment
• 40:21
  Yeah
• 40:22
  No, I mean at the end of the day
• 40:24
  I'm sure louis understood once he like I don't know if they watched the race or whatever i'm sure their own version of it
• 40:31
  But if he knows what happened, i'm sure he would understand that maybe the frustration lando was feeling
• 40:36
  Uh, dude, it's louis hamilton. He don't care about that interaction dude. No, he doesn't no he doesn't but it was funny
• 40:43
  Um, let's see. That's really nothing else to mention with alpine williams hoss or steak
• 40:48
  I mean ghastly retired again for the second race in a row
• 40:52
  Let's got a frustrated guy new parts too. Like that's so rough. Someone must be ghastly dude. He's probably sabotaging himself
• 40:59
  I know we talked about him too much. I saw him. I saw a photo of him and uh,
• 41:05
  And leclerc at a taylor swift concert. I know I saw that too. Well, that's right. I have seen that
• 41:09
  I think uh, I think lando was or leclerc was asked about being a swifty or something
• 41:14
  He asked like asked the reporter back like are you a swifty?
• 41:17
  And he just flipped it on him and then the reporter just like shut down
• 41:19
  Uh, with that let's jump into our news keff
• 41:34
  And starting off the news we of course have kind of the beginning of silly season
• 41:41
  I've heard some wild rumors. Does checo actually have a seat when we come back from summer break as soon as then
• 41:47
  Uh carlos signs to red bull 2025 all sorts of just insane stuff and jargon out there
• 41:54
  Does any of it hold any weight? I have no idea
• 41:57
  I just want to know if you guys have heard anything crazy heading into break here that
• 42:01
  That kind of you know stood out to you. Well, I just saw I know
• 42:05
  everybody loves uh when marco
• 42:07
  Says his opinion but marco said after this next race they're gonna get to get he's gonna get together with horner
• 42:13
  in the summer break and try to
• 42:15
  To determine the future for checo
• 42:18
  Oh, so that one could hold some weight. He dropped another spot in the constructors who was down to seventh
• 42:23
  And he had to stay above him and lewis and he had to stay at five
• 42:27
  It was 100 points of maximum within no within
• 42:29
  Was it within five or top five? He had to be p5 p5 or better. Yeah
• 42:34
  Which is crazy to think that obviously at the beginning of the season red bull had the fastest car
• 42:39
  No doubt hands down
• 42:41
  And obviously we did not see treco taking advantage of that time and george is not that far behind him either to put him into eighth
• 42:50
  Yeah, not at all 10 points. I mean he's 140 points behind rish 8 points. So if that happens
• 42:56
  Eight points is that is that?
• 42:59
  Danny rick status even though he can't seem to you know, find points consistently
• 43:03
  So so marco obviously this race he was he got screwed over right? But marco also came out and said that uh,
• 43:11
  Kind of towards danny that like that the racing bull team is our
• 43:17
  You know junior team or whatever right like we put danny rick in there because we thought he would be in this seat
• 43:24
  So it was kind of a diss towards danny rick that like they're probably they're not going to keep him there next year
• 43:28
  Sure, you're so is that because he's up at red bull?
• 43:31
  I don't know but it was that like he's not going to be in that seat next year
• 43:34
  He's not going to be in the racing bull because that's her junior team to develop players or racers
• 43:38
  It's fair
• 43:39
  So who's in that racing is liam?
• 43:43
  There's been a lot of talk about probably the next choice
• 43:45
  I think liam would be silly you got to give that chance to yuki before you give it to liam
• 43:49
  But I think danny would be for a long time on red bull. I was talking i was talking danny see that race
• 43:53
  Yeah, danny seat. Oh, I mean if it depends on who's in red bull, right?
• 43:57
  It's either going to be I don't think I think checko is going to be a part of red bull next year
• 44:01
  Right, so if he's not in the red bull, he's going to be in a racing bull
• 44:04
  Yeah, but then I think you have to because it's a one and one
• 44:06
  You know as you're paying and that's a lot of money you're paying them to not raise right?
• 44:10
  So there's that thought right but you're saying that to danny rick and then you're going to put checko in the racing bulls
• 44:15
  Isn't that the same?
• 44:17
  similar deal
• 44:19
  Well, I mean I guess because you're trying to develop the younger drivers
• 44:22
  Okay, so out danny rick and now we're gonna put sergio down
• 44:24
  but no, hold on this this goes back to what tyler said about
• 44:28
  Sponsorships and endorsements well for sure so I mean it makes sense to keep him down there for a bit
• 44:33
  No for sure 100 you'd have to think that like checko's bringing in at least his salary and endorsements every year to be on the team
• 44:39
  I would imagine you have to think right? Yeah. Yeah, he's marketable
• 44:43
  Like yeah, we talked about that last time just like danny rick is but checko's probably arguably more marketable than than danny rick to his crowd
• 44:49
  Nice guy danny rick. Yeah to his crowd right, but danny's getting past is the ozzy?
• 44:55
  Like he is he'll forever have the ozzy backing like obviously don't get me wrong
• 44:59
  And he has a hell of a lot more like he's at america exactly. Hey, but also
• 45:03
  Make sure you'll question it, you know, eventually maybe somebody's like, oh, I don't know. He'll always have america though. Yeah
• 45:09
  Yeah, why is that? We all know that
• 45:12
  Great
• 45:13
  I guarantee a lot more people think that like danny rick is like actually american than they even know who logan sergeant is
• 45:21
  100 yes, but you probably yes
• 45:23
  I think they probably literally think that danny rick's american
• 45:27
  We should make a poll i'd be curious. Well, I think our fan base would
• 45:31
  I don't think our fan base would be the uh, the truest test for that. You would like to think it'd be pretty high for accuracy
• 45:37
  Yeah, that's true all four of you in the comments you guys gotta get out of here
• 45:46
  Um, all right. Well with that anybody else hear anything
• 45:50
  Any dark web news that you know of I had something I forgot it
• 45:55
  It wasn't anything juicy. Nothing juicy
• 45:56
  Just just like the stuff that we're going over kind of the same stuff already that we're about to hit here joe
• 46:01
  Anything going on that you saw that we're not about to mention?
• 46:04
  Um, I did just see very like a very small tidbit that yeah summer break could mean something for checko
• 46:11
  I had not heard anything about signs to red bull
• 46:14
  um
• 46:19
  Signs do you think I would love to see signs in a seat by the end of the or you know
• 46:25
  Uh, he he has a contract by the end of the break, but I don't know
• 46:28
  I've not i've not heard anything about silly season yet, but i'm sure it'll start heating up soon
• 46:33
  It's like a silly year kind of though to be fair
• 46:36
  So what the driver market is open as it is next year and all those seats to be filled
• 46:40
  It's like it was always going to be yeah, we're getting pretty low on seats though. We are they're filling in
• 46:45
  We'll get we'll give a full update of seats probably next next uh episode before we head into break
• 46:51
  As maybe we could see some of those filled during break. Is that is that a time for that type of stuff?
• 46:55
  I think you're gonna see like you have meetings over here and stuff and people start visiting you see what science said
• 47:00
  What'd you say? He goes I haven't made a team yet. I'm too busy counting euros
• 47:05
  He really he actually said that I'm like 99 90 it might have been on the dark web
• 47:10
  But he said he was he was talking about following spain in the euros soccer tournament
• 47:15
  Dang, oh which was going on that was going on. Yeah, yeah
• 47:19
  Because he had a little back and forth clip it never mind never mind me on instagram
• 47:24
  How do I get quick made on instagram? Yeah, there you go. It's supposed to be very for me
• 47:31
  arrogant
• 47:33
  so uh
• 47:34
  Remind me of the young driver that is kimmy. Yeah, yeah, Kim Antonelli the whole name. Yeah, Kimmy Antonelli
• 47:41
  He won the f2 feature at the hungaro ring
• 47:45
  And he yeah killed that by the way
• 47:48
  He stated that he may not be ready to actually make the leap yet himself like after he won
• 47:53
  And somebody was interviewing whatever he actually said that and allegedly in that same article
• 47:59
  I can't remember where that was the original plan was to have hamilton and george at mercedes
• 48:03
  So hamilton leaving kind of changed everything
• 48:07
  So now what can't ellie starting to feel that heat without even being in the seat?
• 48:12
  The the thing you forgot about that it was like hamilton and george being in mercedes and kimmy and williams
• 48:17
  Sure, right that was the plan to have those for sure
• 48:19
  And then kimmy was always going to go into williams and then have those two to like mentor him
• 48:22
  You would you would imagine it's more pressure just to be thrown into the mercedes and williams at this point
• 48:28
  And then yeah, yeah
• 48:29
  I was just gonna say that original plan makes complete sense
• 48:33
  Like just yeah have have him in the junior team so he can move up
• 48:36
  Yeah getting I mean we've come out and say that it's pretty wild
• 48:39
  Yeah, he was like I just have so much more to develop here like at least he's real about it, you know
• 48:45
  He's not he's sixth in the standings. I think right now currently for us
• 48:48
  As a as like if i'm a team and I want an f1 driver
• 48:53
  That's the last thing I want to hear I think for sure though like I wanted somebody that's gonna be cocky and confident
• 48:58
  Not a guy that's like you need an okan confidence
• 49:02
  Minus the wrecking minus the wrecking but like as far as confidence is the last thing i'm looking for if i'm a team
• 49:07
  I know it's gotta hurt his stock. I I couldn't believe it when I when I saw the headline
• 49:11
  I was like no and it was like a legitimate article from a reputable place and I was like
• 49:15
  I was just taken back by it. It's not something I expected to see. Yeah. Yeah, I saw that yeah, especially after a win
• 49:22
  Um, yeah, you know, that's hey sometimes you call it as you see it in the mirror, I guess um, so k-meg
• 49:31
  Can free? Yeah, i've never heard that one. I'd me there just made it up. Um, but k-meg confirmed not racing for haas next year
• 49:39
  So we already have beerman confirmed, right? It's the biggest surprise of silly season
• 49:43
  Biggest surprise. Yeah. Yeah, I know. I know so who's in the second seat?
• 49:48
  That was never gonna be a thing
• 49:51
  That man has cost them so much
• 49:55
  Um, I don't know dude
• 49:57
  I'm just gonna stare
• 49:59
  I can't believe this is happening
• 50:02
  Yeah, we got um, I don't know the high
• 50:05
  Feastry second situation happening here, dude. The the hot seat is like the one seat that I honestly have no idea
• 50:12
  Like there's no driver that makes sense, right? The williams seat like bates williams makes sense started his career there
• 50:18
  He still has something he can he can offer and could move into the seat if they do antonelli and we've talked about that situation
• 50:24
  Yeah, so that makes sense. The alpine dohanner mick makes sense. Yeah, right
• 50:29
  Right. There's no other seats open there was that for the racing bull seat, which is it's yuki and who knows they're gonna grab
• 50:35
  And then the mercedes obviously whoever they pick the other seat is gonna be filled by vet. They always do that move
• 50:41
  Yeah, there are rumors of that is out there. They're
• 50:47
  I agreed they should not put in another rookie because they did that already and after this year doesn't make any sense
• 50:56
  Ride that momentum
• 50:57
  Yeah, I think trying to stay competitive. Yeah, yeah, and and ollie's a great move to stay competitive
• 51:02
  Obviously he's showing he can race in the f1. So let's debate that then
• 51:06
  Danny rick or ocon if that's if those are your two that you're kind of or is it
• 51:11
  somebody that's not even in in the
• 51:13
  In an f1 car right now
• 51:15
  Like who I don't know vettel or something. That was not gonna come back and drive for haas
• 51:20
  You just like they're gonna get it. I think it's gonna be a vet. That'd be wild though
• 51:23
  It's gonna be a vet. I think it's a bad move if they get ocon it probably if we're putting odds on it
• 51:28
  The highest odds are ocon for sure
• 51:30
  Danny rick's tough because I don't know if he wants to race there
• 51:34
  So I don't see anybody else on the grid other than ocon
• 51:36
  I'd want to race there unless they're going for a rookie or unless they're going outside of f1
• 51:40
  Doesn't make sense for anybody else. I mean unless if they like
• 51:49
  Imagine haas goes and grabs like a mick again
• 51:51
  I just like they grab mick from will they do it again for mercedes. That's interesting man. Give him another child
• 51:59
  As long as he's not slated for that alpine seat. I mean and a better car, but if you're if you're mick
• 52:04
  What do you do you go alpine you go to haas?
• 52:07
  Well, that's what i'm seeing right now. I'm going to haas all day over
• 52:10
  But the only the only thing there is the reason I think it's got to be a vet
• 52:14
  Is if that if that's like, you know, that's ferrari's team
• 52:17
  Right. It only makes sense for barman because he's their next spot. He's the next guy in the Ferrari. Yeah, they're grown. So
• 52:25
  Is this science ain't going to haas, right? That's crazy
• 52:30
  I think money wise it would take like bots to haas. I was about to say boat haas too. Yeah, he's not he's not horrible spot
• 52:37
  I feel like we would rather go to williams though. I mean if he had a choice it would make
• 52:41
  So why why haven't we heard anything of mick to williams? He's a mercedes reserve driver
• 52:47
  Because I don't think yeah, there are no rumors out there. Why why isn't that a check? Oh what a check?
• 52:52
  I don't because I don't think he has like he just doesn't have any ties to williams besides being mercedes reserve driver
• 52:58
  Like I guess it it makes sense because williams is their um their junior team. Yeah, but
• 53:05
  In terms of ties though, like ocon and gasly didn't have any ties at alpine
• 53:11
  Maybe alpine doesn't really have any ties to anybody
• 53:15
  That's true. They're on an island. That's true
• 53:18
  Yeah, no one likes reno. Well, yeah, because like mclaren and oscar came up through f2 or mclaren lando and oscar
• 53:26
  Maybe yeah, maybe mick. I don't know. I still don't think mick's gonna. I just don't think they'd take it
• 53:30
  I want him on the grid. I do too. I think he should get another shot. He will it's a matter of time before he gets
• 53:35
  Another shot. I just don't how long are you a reserve driver before you're you're just not an f1 driver?
• 53:40
  Because there's that new f2 driver coming for sure. So hold on we I talked about this
• 53:44
  um off mike last time but this other
• 53:48
  Podcast, I don't know their names. I can't shout them out, but they were talking about uh, and we talked about this last time
• 53:54
  They're talking about science being a reserve for uh ferrari would be the best move for science
• 53:59
  Oh, yeah, it was because that's because
• 54:03
  The reality is you got two maybe three years at max with matt or with uh, lewis and he's done
• 54:09
  But I so you sit there on the sidelines wait and then you come back in you you get primed up
• 54:13
  You get ready to go and you're in a ferrari. I hate that for carlos because I think he's like 29 years old
• 54:17
  Yeah, he's he's not in that position of his career. I mean, this one's a pretty renowned dude. That was talking
• 54:23
  I saw it. I definitely know what you're talking about. Yeah, I just don't know if I can get behind that though. David kuthard
• 54:28
  That's not how it's pronounced cool third cool third. It's like it david kuthard. It's it's colt. Yes, I call it
• 54:38
  Spelled very different. I don't know. I just I think I think it makes sense
• 54:41
  It comes from him to say that because he's probably right lewis is doesn't have like, you know
• 54:45
  He's not going to spend eight more years on ferrari
• 54:47
  I think if luis wins the reserve driver specie, I don't know
• 54:51
  But that's what i'm saying
• 54:52
  You're gonna you you'd rather you'd rather be a reserve driver and not have a seat in f1
• 54:56
  And then go drive for three other teams. Yeah, I'd rather I think you'd rather drive you have to but I did see that
• 55:03
  And that's his money. He wants because I just I never thought of that as an option. I just
• 55:07
  At his age. I just don't think it's a good move. Could far even afford that they're paying lewis
• 55:12
  Up the kahoos either paying this carless want to take a pay cut
• 55:16
  Does carlos want to take a pay cut to be in that position?
• 55:19
  What's up with the terms today? Dude, you guys are throwing me out
• 55:22
  We're gonna have to come up with a banner with the boys dictionary you guys are in your own you guys are in your own
• 55:26
  Silly season right now
• 55:28
  It's silly season every day, buddy
• 55:32
  Let's see here we've already talked about botas potentially to williams. Um, audi confirms the return
• 55:39
  What's his name?
• 55:42
  We were trying to say his name before we started
• 55:47
  Is the new f1 boss over at ferrari
• 55:49
  Uh, I I don't think that's that surprising. I think we kind of all expected him to make a return good move. Yeah
• 55:56
  Probably good move
• 55:57
  Uh, they they said that he was set to be the chief technical officer. It's a new role that they're creating for him
• 56:04
  Uh chief operating and chief technical officer. I don't know if that means he's principal
• 56:09
  I would assume it does but no, I think they haven't I I don't think so
• 56:12
  Well, I think it's like a step above that so their current team principal is andrea sidle and he's being replaced by him
• 56:17
  By bonato. Oh, but I thought he was just coming in not as a principal but just to help the team
• 56:24
  That's very possible. I I don't know for sure
• 56:26
  I just know that in the article they they mentioned that that andrea sidle was out and he is in
• 56:33
  interesting
• 56:34
  I think andrea sidle was like the
• 56:37
  We still got the other cyber cyber seat that's up for grabs, too
• 56:41
  We do that's never it's not right. Yeah
• 56:43
  I mean in that I feel like that's up to audi at this point, right the way they were talking about it
• 56:48
  Like four weeks or like I guess a couple months ago now was that they wanted to fill that seat so fast
• 56:53
  I think that was just a hoax trying to push carlos to make a decision. Maybe yeah
• 56:57
  Yeah, I think he still goes there. He could still be a front runner for that spot just because it's so automatically boom
• 57:02
  I'm a number one driver now. I'm still kind of hoping who else would you be waiting on to fill that seat?
• 57:06
  Yeah, we're not gonna put bots in there. You're not gonna put like they're not waiting
• 57:09
  I don't think they're waiting. I don't but I feel like they also have probably haven't extended any
• 57:15
  Too many other offers at this point. I feel like you could still put botos in it
• 57:18
  I just don't know if he'd want it
• 57:19
  I don't know if he wants to be in state thing
• 57:21
  He's got our three years though because if you want him there you want it for 2026 probably to 2028
• 57:25
  If you want to put a driver there, I can see them going after a nice young cat though
• 57:29
  Something that you can like because like nico he signed up for the next two years
• 57:32
  So he'll be in audi the first year in 2026
• 57:34
  Oh, I actually had this I I said this earlier in in my chat that my f1 chat that I have
• 57:40
  Okay, this is kind of big brain a little bit. Oh, mick schumacher is german
• 57:45
  How is that
• 57:56
  Yeah, but you have mick schumacher who's the son of michael schumacher on the team right like his his last name carries so much
• 58:02
  That doesn't be so long. Listen. No, you gotta hear me out here. Okay, you ready?
• 58:06
  Follow me follow me mick schumacher to salber
• 58:10
  Why that's it german?
• 58:13
  That's the argument you got me there
• 58:16
  That's hey, that's big. That's big brain right here
• 58:19
  It's big brain
• 58:21
  I keep forgetting about that seat as an option because I keep viewing it as like secondary to everybody else just because audi's gonna be
• 58:28
  New in 2026. So like yeah, like do you take it?
• 58:32
  over a ha seat
• 58:34
  I don't think probably not right now man. Yeah, they're just really bad
• 58:39
  The only argument for me like to take it over like the alpine seat, I think I would take a williams over
• 58:45
  Sauber for now
• 58:47
  As well, so we're I mean that's that's no question. You don't take a one-year deal with sauber and that's what you that makes sense
• 58:53
  Yeah, you don't say we're there for the duration of the new
• 58:56
  You only take a one-year deal if you want
• 58:59
  You need a spot in that phone
• 59:02
  Yeah, but it's also so you're a you're a young gun that wants to prove himself. How old is bowtie? Yeah
• 59:07
  He's like 33 35. Is he older than louis? I don't know. He's younger than louis, but he's got to be
• 59:13
  So no chance he retires over the summer then I don't think there is a chance
• 59:18
  Didn't he talk about this though? He talked about yeah, he's considering it. Yeah
• 59:21
  Yeah, okay. I think to be honest with you. It's uh, if he retires now that just opens up a whole
• 59:27
  He seems like the guy to retire right now. I'm not not because he's bad just because he's bowtie
• 59:32
  Yeah, and drive to survive. He'll just walk around naked and then he's like
• 59:35
  He seems like he has a lot of other stuff going on. He like bikes regularly. He's got his calendar like he's got stuff to do
• 59:41
  You know, yeah, he's laying in the water on a beach or something. Yeah, he's a drake of f1
• 59:46
  Yeah, he already seems like he's kind of retired, you know
• 59:49
  He definitely lives the retired life just on the daily basis he does
• 59:53
  But I wouldn't also be surprised if sabre did go and grab like a one-year guy and then vedal comes in with auti then you got vedal
• 59:59
  Who's german?
• 1:00:01
  And hulk?
• 1:00:03
  German! Ever since I brought up vedal
• 1:00:05
  German! He's german!
• 1:00:07
  But listen think about it german
• 1:00:09
  Ever since I brought up vedal like week one we've all been just like picking our brain where can we get them in?
• 1:00:14
  There's also been like talks though. There's been talks of like oh auti wants to have like a german as much german as they can
• 1:00:20
  So like vedal and hulk were like the two
• 1:00:22
  It's not german
• 1:00:24
  Yeah
• 1:00:26
  We gotta move on
• 1:00:28
  Gotta be more german than auti dangit
• 1:00:30
  We gotta move on
• 1:00:32
  Hey, yeah with that let's let's head into our belgian preview
• 1:00:34
  I need a beer
• 1:00:46
  And right into the belgian preview of course we got joe doing his thing over here joe's recap shack nope don't like it
• 1:00:52
  I'll come up with something else next week
• 1:00:54
  You wrote it down you tried it out that's all we got
• 1:00:56
  It didn't work
• 1:00:58
  Silly season
• 1:01:00
  Joe take it away
• 1:01:02
  We got the formula one rolex belgian grand prix 2024 at spa fronkerchamps
• 1:01:08
  Spa is the longest circuit on the f1 calendar at seven kilometers or 4.3 miles. Is it kilometers?
• 1:01:16
  kilometers, whatever
• 1:01:19
  That logan that logan meme what the f
• 1:01:21
  Yeah, that's me that's me yeah um
• 1:01:27
  One quick one another quick fun fact spas you used to mark the end of the summer break
• 1:01:32
  Um being the first race back, but since last year it's now the last before the summer break
• 1:01:38
  So they just swapped it like, you know, I think they got vegas. What's the first race out of the summer break again?
• 1:01:42
  Uh, the first race back is
• 1:01:46
  Oh, netherlands. Yeah, it's dutch. So they got that. It's the uh, the actual like banked corner
• 1:01:51
  That's a fun race in that one. That is that is max's home race. Yeah
• 1:01:55
  So we got that coming up before I get into recap you guys like spa. I
• 1:01:58
  Love spa. I do too dude that acid up the hill is so fun
• 1:02:02
  It's like my it's probably the most fun like portion of the whole game. Yeah
• 1:02:07
  Just driving that and then you go into like the it's because it's full throttle through and then you can go full throttle into
• 1:02:12
  The straight and you're just
• 1:02:14
  All about
• 1:02:19
  It's uh
• 1:02:21
  It's the only track I think that we raised when we used to race together that you'd have to pause every time because of how long
• 1:02:27
  the race is so
• 1:02:28
  Oh because of my kids
• 1:02:31
  There's gotta be like we'd be like laugh. We only did like five lap races. Yeah, like lap three be like, hold on. Give me ten
• 1:02:36
  I'm like what dude i'm mid-race
• 1:02:46
  You like it next spot oh yeah, I wreck every time yeah, okay cool
• 1:02:50
  Because I still run with no traction control off everything off. I think he's
• 1:02:56
  He was a kid back in the day using 10 sensitivity dude on the cod
• 1:03:00
  Oh, man
• 1:03:03
  That's so funny
• 1:03:05
  All right. Yeah, no, I wreck every time a lot of throttle there. Yeah a lot of tire spin for me
• 1:03:09
  I love it so much. It's just such an interesting track. I love watching it
• 1:03:13
  All right, i'll jump into the recap. We don't have a ton of time here. We'll get into it
• 1:03:17
  Starting grid was charles sergio and then lewis max did qualify first, but he took a five place grid penalty
• 1:03:24
  Honestly, I don't know if this is a good track to take those
• 1:03:29
  Those penalties at because it's so long and so much can happen
• 1:03:32
  So I would expect at least i'm going to say right now this isn't you know has no weight
• 1:03:37
  I'm going to say at least one person is probably going to take a penalty just for some kind of component in their car
• 1:03:42
  um
• 1:03:43
  All right both front rows had an excellent start off the line
• 1:03:46
  Uh, there's a little more trouble down the order in fifth place for piastres
• 1:03:49
  He gets pinched against the wall by signs picking up wing and wheel damage dropping him all the way down the grid
• 1:03:55
  He did have to retire the car shortly after up
• 1:03:58
  Up au rose on the first lap checo finds his way past leclerc for p1 before the end of the long straight
• 1:04:04
  For stappen did the same move to carlos signs right behind them taking fourth
• 1:04:08
  Alonso took fifth place from signs on lap four while his teammate took ninth from norris on lap five
• 1:04:14
  Lando lost the last point position to russell moments later and then slightly up the grid
• 1:04:19
  We saw senota takes senota takes sixth place from signs
• 1:04:23
  The day got worse for signs as alban is next to overtake him
• 1:04:26
  Um signs likely picked up some damage from piastri early in the race. He did go on to retire later
• 1:04:32
  Um on lap six or stappen overtook hamilton for third place only a second off from leclerc in second
• 1:04:38
  And on lap nine max made the overtake on charles for second securing the red bull one two
• 1:04:43
  He takes first from checo on lap 17 to 44 down the grid russell is able to take six from straw in the same lap
• 1:04:49
  So from fifth, uh, it only took 17 laps long laps, obviously for max to get up to first place
• 1:04:57
  Rain did start coming down the track, but no one pitted for enters
• 1:04:59
  It wasn't wasn't bad enough for them to it looked pretty bad in some areas, but everyone held out on their on their slicks
• 1:05:05
  um
• 1:05:06
  Russell is the first to pit on when it started raining
• 1:05:08
  But he came out on sops and everyone was just kind of in agreement with each other that they're going to stay on slicks
• 1:05:13
  um
• 1:05:13
  Ocon made a crazy overtake after a long straight on cenota for ninth place and then he took eighth from stroll a few laps after
• 1:05:20
  Um the last one and a half years the race ends with forstappen across the line first
• 1:05:24
  22 seconds ahead of peres with leclerc in fourth
• 1:05:28
  Or third rather so it's very it's forstappen peres leclerc hamilton alonzo russell norris ocon stroll cenota
• 1:05:35
  Uh, so this this made max's eighth consecutive win
• 1:05:38
  Uh in that season signs like I said before he didn't end up retiring before the end of the race and
• 1:05:43
  Hamilton was able to steal the fastest lap on the last lap of the race
• 1:05:47
  And that was spa last year
• 1:05:50
  spa
• 1:05:51
  uh
• 1:05:53
  Well
• 1:05:54
  At least it doesn't look like a bunch of rain this weekend. It looks like it might be cloudy
• 1:05:58
  It looks like saturday for quali. Yeah rain on saturday. Yeah, so that could be interesting track dries up
• 1:06:03
  But I mean it's supposed to get to 72 so the track should drive more than what's the temperature for sunday?
• 1:06:09
  72 is a high but it says it's cloudy on yours too for sunday pretty cloudy
• 1:06:13
  So does that does that affect that track temperature at all? You know a cloudy day versus a sunny day
• 1:06:18
  Yeah, the track track temperature won't be as high as it would usually be but I was just talking more in terms of the track drying out
• 1:06:24
  Right for sure should be plenty for it to dry out especially with them driving during quali
• 1:06:28
  You know that's drying the track out better than anything you can for sure
• 1:06:31
  Um, I guess right off the bat. I don't think czecho is going to finish on the podium this week
• 1:06:37
  Yeah, I don't I don't know either just because of like the season he's been having he did have
• 1:06:41
  I mean he had a really good qualifying so he's got to do that first and he's proven that he can't do that very often
• 1:06:47
  This season so he's got to do that first. Um
• 1:06:51
  And then yeah, I mean last week. I mean last last week last year
• 1:06:54
  He made up he only had to make up one position to get into first and then you know eventually get second
• 1:06:59
  And and that was against max which no one's going to be able to to beat in the last year's red bull
• 1:07:03
  So right true, right max won by 22 seconds starting fifth. That's not happening this year. Definitely not
• 1:07:09
  I don't think yeah, and czecho beat charles or whoever got third. I think it was charles, right?
• 1:07:15
  Yeah, czecho beat charles by 10 seconds. Yep. That red bull car last year was just it was just unfair. It's it's
• 1:07:22
  Yeah, I I had you pull it up. I think or I was looking through years
• 1:07:25
  To see like the standings last year all the way down to like the bottom side wanted to see where a couple people finished for this year
• 1:07:31
  And it just doesn't even matter
• 1:07:33
  The cars are so much different this year. That's kind of the fun thing about f1
• 1:07:36
  They are different right now
• 1:07:37
  It's kind of the fun thing about f1 like you can't like week one of the nfl season
• 1:07:40
  You can kind of base what's going on who's gonna be where f1 you never know what's gonna happen
• 1:07:44
  Really? I feel like and I kind of love that about the sport how it's so sporadic like
• 1:07:47
  It doesn't matter what happened last year on this track if they don't got the cart doesn't matter
• 1:07:52
  Right, you know because everybody going into this year was like, oh red bull is just gonna have another dominant year
• 1:07:57
  It's gonna be just like last year. We are far from that. We're having
• 1:08:01
  We wrongly assumed all of that last year
• 1:08:03
  I couldn't pay attention the entire the the whole year because I was just so over it
• 1:08:07
  We were watching a lot. Yeah every every weekend we were talking
• 1:08:11
  We watched a lot just chatted about it and then like midseason. I was like, yeah, dude
• 1:08:14
  I didn't catch the race and I stopped watching it this year. I'm like actually excited to see it
• 1:08:18
  Mm-hmm. It's it's it's a blast this year even quali quali is so exciting right now
• 1:08:22
  like last week it was like that last to lap time just went from like I think is like checko was in like sixth and
• 1:08:29
  Then he crashed and it was like, oh, okay
• 1:08:30
  He'll still probably make it to q2 and finish 15th and then it was just like lap time in lap time in Danny Rick went
• 1:08:36
  To the top. Yeah, I'm just like what is going on right now. Louis almost didn't make it into q1
• 1:08:42
  Yeah, and then Louis had the break 15th. Yeah
• 1:08:44
  It's crazy and then two guys still had a lot and they just sat it was all kind of Hulk. Yeah
• 1:08:50
  Yeah, it's crazy. It's just so much more enjoyable this year and so
• 1:08:54
  The updates are obviously super cool from last year just to hear like kind of what happened the way it all went down
• 1:08:59
  Because there is certain tracks if they had the decent car like Lewis when he's got a good car
• 1:09:03
  You can race in that does play in a factor if you finished good last year if you race is good at this track
• 1:09:08
  right
• 1:09:10
  But yeah, it's just like
• 1:09:12
  I check out could have won this race by 35 minutes last year. I'm not taking them on my podium
• 1:09:18
  Yeah
• 1:09:21
  You know before we even get into the podiums
• 1:09:24
  Do we does anybody know of any upgrades coming this week for anybody? I haven't heard anything yet, but
• 1:09:29
  Apparently Red Bull has some so they came last week though, right, but they probably weren't
• 1:09:34
  Well, I got I think I'm not sure you didn't have him last week. Got it. So I think both cars will have them this week
• 1:09:40
  interesting though
• 1:09:42
  Because it didn't really I mean he didn't look like a spaceship out there if he had him last week
• 1:09:48
  Do you know if they were made more for top-end speed if they're made more for I don't know what they were for
• 1:09:52
  It was probably to get rid of that infringement. Yeah when we were talking
• 1:09:56
  Maybe when we were talking last
• 1:10:00
  Last pod I had mentioned like I think we had mentioned that we all saw that they were bringing upgrades
• 1:10:05
  Yeah, I couldn't find anything unlike what the upgrades were
• 1:10:08
  I hear anybody talk about during the race. I didn't either. Yeah, no, and I want you they didn't bring anything. Yeah
• 1:10:14
  Did they actually bring them?
• 1:10:16
  Are you know for sure that is from them in check? Oh didn't I saw that?
• 1:10:20
  I'm pretty pretty sure so I heard that max right now has a more
• 1:10:25
  Upgraded car than check than they gave check. Oh
• 1:10:29
  But I don't know if that has to do with this most recent
• 1:10:31
  Weekend so that's usually the case is usually like a car will get it one weekend
• 1:10:35
  And then in the other car will get like it happens with McLaren all the time that Oscars always one race behind
• 1:10:40
  Lando whenever they do bring a huge upgrade is that cost or just to see if it's worth it to compare to the old car
• 1:10:44
  I don't think it's cost production. Yeah, I think I've been able to produce that extra
• 1:10:49
  But you see you don't think it's you don't think it's to see how that car performs versus the old car lap times and all
• 1:10:54
  That kind of stuff that might have a planet
• 1:10:55
  But I don't think but I don't think so because I don't think I think all of that is done
• 1:11:00
  Like in the sim and the testing to get it on that car to see if it I don't think you're gonna like put it
• 1:11:04
  On there as a trial period like it's pretty tried and tested before getting it on the car
• 1:11:08
  But then you look at for our Ferrari and their their floor
• 1:11:11
  Yeah, but like so that's my point if you put it on one car at least if it just is horrible
• 1:11:17
  You at least have one car with that old system that can still maybe put out some points for you
• 1:11:21
  If you just put on a horrible part
• 1:11:23
  Yeah, I think a lot of it would have to do with like if it's a minor verse major upgrade as well
• 1:11:27
  Yeah, I think but I know I mean that would make a lot of sense. I 100% see what you're saying. Yeah, I
• 1:11:31
  I wish we just knew more about this. I wish we had like an in somewhere, you know, yeah you do
• 1:11:40
  I had the dark web, but if any old F1 drivers want to reach out you guys you got our connections
• 1:11:45
  Just DM us. Well, we'll get you involved
• 1:11:50
  Gunther will take you to body
• 1:11:53
  Whatever we got to do whatever
• 1:11:55
  I feel the pain more than Sky Sports. Oh, yeah, our pockets are deep
• 1:12:01
  Why don't you take it away for the podium podium so
• 1:12:05
  Last week we had the lap 35 leader got the bonus points. Nobody got that Oscar lead at 35
• 1:12:11
  We all had four different answers, but none of us seemed to be able to get it
• 1:12:15
  So not a lot of change in the standings from last week
• 1:12:17
  I'm still in first at 26 Melty and Kohler now tied at second at 24 Joe unfortunately
• 1:12:23
  You didn't only got one point last week two points. That's right smell to you only got or Nicole
• 1:12:27
  You only got one point. Sorry the right that wrong you did you guys saw it? No, it's 18 to 20
• 1:12:32
  You're still don't force it. You're still four points behind with getting to
• 1:12:39
  Bonus bonus bonus six behind you. Well behind me. Yeah, I was I mean that's
• 1:12:45
  That's for stabbing gap
• 1:12:47
  That's last year for
• 1:12:51
  So this week we're gonna throw a little curveball in the bonus points and we're gonna say who finishes tenth who gets that final
• 1:12:56
  One point I will start us off. I'm gonna be pretty boring with my podium
• 1:13:00
  It's gonna be Lando Oscar and I think massive max is gonna come back this track just favors Red Bull in those high-end speeds
• 1:13:06
  So I think I think max is gonna have a good showing and the way Lando and Oscar looked last week and just how consistent
• 1:13:12
  They've been that I just I you can't bet against that McLaren right now. You can't and for tenth
• 1:13:16
  I'm gonna throw Hulk in there
• 1:13:20
  Interesting house has some top-end speed in their car
• 1:13:24
  So how does this work because we're tied now does it go to him cuz he had the bigger week last week rock-paper-scissors
• 1:13:31
  One
• 1:13:37
  Of course
• 1:13:39
  I'm honestly I'm gonna do Oscar Lando
• 1:13:47
  You don't you don't get to first out taking chances put Lewis and
• 1:13:53
  for my tenth
• 1:13:57
  Okay, so I'm between two right now
• 1:14:01
  You mean
• 1:14:03
  You can only pick one give me Danny Rick Danny Rick that's what I was gonna go with actually him and Yuki. Yeah. Yeah
• 1:14:10
  Yuki may have been the smarter play
• 1:14:15
  Yeah, I'll definitely take some chances
• 1:14:20
  Yeah, we're gonna go for our our podium Lando for Stapp and Lewis and
• 1:14:28
  then
• 1:14:30
  I'm really taking chances in that order. You got three
• 1:14:36
  Oscar that's a chance right now because I think Oscars the safe bet I think there's a good chance anyway, that's my that's my podium
• 1:14:42
  my bonus I
• 1:14:45
  Can't can't take Pierre cuz that's not working out for me this year. I mean you could that's not
• 1:14:54
  I
• 1:14:56
  Won't I'll go I'll go Albon
• 1:15:06
  Fast I like that Wow, I think Hawk might finish like seventh or eighth. I might be screwed good. Yeah, good
• 1:15:13
  Danny was 17th last year
• 1:15:20
  Um
• 1:15:21
  So Oscar he didn't finish last last season
• 1:15:24
  But he looked so good at this track
• 1:15:26
  He out quality we had sprint last last year and I think I don't know if he didn't win it
• 1:15:32
  But I think he got second in it. He looked really good. You need to start thinking about six points
• 1:15:37
  six
• 1:15:39
  Oscar is going to Oscar. I think Oscar if you want to win, okay
• 1:15:43
  It's gonna be it's gonna be Oscar Oscar will be on that podium
• 1:15:46
