• 1:07
  Joel right next to me co-host what's going on? Nothing much just excited to be here talking about F1.
• 1:12
  For sure for sure keeping it simple excited to talk some F1 with that let's head right into the-
• 1:18
  How are you doing Smelty? I feel like nobody ever asked you how you doing man. How you doing man?
• 1:22
  Oh we're good too works busy football starting up that's busy so everything's just going crazy so
• 1:30
  nice smooth summer. Will NCAA coming out? College football 25 yeah yeah but all of us will be NCAA 25.
• 1:40
  We're becoming old heads now we'll call it NCAA but yeah no I love the game love the game but
• 1:45
  let's head right into the British GP recap. Right away with Quali we had three Brits on the podium
• 1:56
  of Quali at their home track that's pretty wild or am I wrong? Why why the- Well I don't know
• 2:02
  there's no- do they celebrate the podium of Quali? Like not really. Not really the the pole center
• 2:10
  gets a tire. Sweet. Sweet. That'd be cool. Is it like a gold tire? No it's just like a little tire.
• 2:16
  It looks like a prolly. They sign it. It is a prolly. That's kind of funny. Very small version.
• 2:21
  And then there's always like a- I would love to buy one off of like you get like one of those
• 2:25
  verses or something. That'd be sweet because it's always somebody like that presents it too so like
• 2:30
  the the pole center like signs it and then it's sometimes it's like a member of motorsports or
• 2:35
  sometimes it's a like celebrity yeah it's just for the photo op. Okay. And then I mean I assume
• 2:42
  the tires go back to the factory. For sure. They just scrape the signatures right off? It's where all-
• 2:47
  No no no the team's headquarters sorry because that's where all the trophies go. Oh I got you.
• 2:51
  Okay. I thought you were like yeah they sign it then they just send it back scrape it off.
• 2:55
  There was a fun- Well they're this big. Yeah. Right. This is a fun fact. Lewis actually I think this
• 3:00
  was in one of his recent pole positions he asked where they go because he's never seen them
• 3:05
  and the Pirelli was like you're supposed to be getting them so I assume they're probably like
• 3:08
  you're right they're probably supposed to be they're probably just going to Mercedes but
• 3:11
  yeah he doesn't know so. That's funny. That's funny. Obviously with that Lewis getting the dub.
• 3:19
  Let's just let's just drop that hammer right off the bat. Is that what Lewis says drop the
• 3:25
  hammer or does he say it's hammer time? Hammer down. Hammer down that's what it is. He probably says both.
• 3:29
  Both. What an idiot. Obviously I was born in the 90s but yeah obviously Lewis getting the dub for
• 3:38
  Mercedes his first win since I believe like 2021 was it? Yeah I believe so. Was it a thousand days?
• 3:45
  Yeah something like a thousand. I don't know how many days. It was just over a thousand.
• 3:49
  It was a big deal because it was over a thousand days and he was the oldest person ever to get a
• 3:53
  win. Pretty awesome. That is pretty awesome. About time. Broke a couple rough records yeah.
• 3:58
  Oldest person ninth not not consecutive but ninth win at a single track. That's insane.
• 4:03
  Yeah he beat their most wins at their track too. Yeah yeah a lot of records. Wait what was that?
• 4:09
  He broke the tie for the most wins at the uh at the grand prix at the uh. Schumacher and him were
• 4:14
  tied with with eight. For sure yep. I didn't know that was specifically the British Grand Prix that
• 4:19
  Schumacher had eight too. That's crazy. Okay no I mean obviously I don't think that'll be his last
• 4:26
  win. I think we'll see some next year. I have a good gut feeling but maybe this year. Maybe we'll see some more this year dude.
• 4:31
  I think we'll still see another one this year but I will have to say his partner in crime George was
• 4:36
  running a pretty solid race before his I can't remember what I put down here. Well didn't Lewis pass him?
• 4:41
  He did. Before he. He did but George was still had a pretty good weekend. He's still showing us
• 4:49
  that why Mercedes is confident with him being their number one driver going to next season.
• 4:53
  But I mean like on top of that when he passed him it was kind of just showing
• 4:58
  experience at that rate in the rain. That's when he passed him in the rain. Oh my god. It was just
• 5:02
  it was just kind of experience at that rate with the uh. And Lewis had silverstone I mean come on.
• 5:06
  Medium tires. Right. Medium tires they weren't none of them were on slicks and that's when
• 5:10
  Lewis was making crazy passes and catching up there everybody. Yeah he was driving a lot more
• 5:14
  aggressively. Yeah well and speaking of the rain I can't imagine how much of a strategy nightmare
• 5:20
  that's got to be especially like the on and off rain like it was doing for the first what like 30
• 5:24
  laps or so it was like oh rain's coming in five minutes it's gonna last 10 minutes and it's gonna
• 5:28
  stop and then we got rain in like 30 minutes. Like what like what are you supposed to do like
• 5:32
  strategy wise? What can you even plan for in that moment? It was by like by far one of the craziest
• 5:38
  kind of like strategy monopoly games that I've ever seen. We I mean I was counting like the
• 5:43
  seconds that like Leclerc was losing because he went on slick or not slicks he went on inters too
• 5:48
  early. I want to say he lost minutes like like very soon whoever was in first at a time was
• 5:55
  lapping him it was that it was crazy it was crazy just how like how like quickly the tire track the
• 6:02
  track could change for what is the best tire and then how quickly like that would change positions
• 6:07
  just for everyone in the field. Well even uh on like the whole strategy I think that's the only
• 6:12
  reason that Max like even gets a podium. Red Bull by far is they don't have the fastest car anymore
• 6:20
  they may have arguably one of the better driver obviously one of the better drivers on the grid
• 6:24
  I don't arguably the best driver on the grid arguably. But like it's I think it's purely just
• 6:30
  strategy at this rate the only reason they're still getting big points in podiums because
• 6:34
  I mean Lando, Lewis, even Piastri they all had a faster car out there but yeah they all went on
• 6:40
  mediums but it's like so you could you could almost say that they're on softs or uh Lewis and Lando
• 6:46
  ended on softs. Oh they did end on softs but you could argue that like Checo was a sacrificial lamb
• 6:50
  in this because he went on hards real early in the race they got all that tire data and then they
• 6:55
  put for sapping on hards and he was just doing work like he called Lando like nothing and then
• 7:00
  I mean you give him five seven more laps he he he's probably catching Lewis. But even even just
• 7:05
  like when they decided to pit all the other teams were messing up on at least one of the driver like
• 7:09
  Piastri just got handed the horrible card on that. Yeah yeah. No that was horrible. Lando did too I mean like and
• 7:14
  and Russell did too. McLaren's strategy like McLaren is looking like Ferrari of the last two years
• 7:20
  with their strategy right now. I would definitely agree that this like Lando strategy aside Lando
• 7:25
  wins this race I think that's the fastest car in Silverstone and I think strategy definitely
• 7:30
  rooted for them. You lost in the race? You got yeah you had Piastri instead of double stacking which would have
• 7:35
  obviously lost time. He went another lap and then Lando passes him in the pit entry which sucks and
• 7:40
  then yeah for some reason they decide to go on the softs instead of the mediums when we know the
• 7:45
  mediums are so good on that McLaren. I just I don't know where the thinking was I mean Lando said it
• 7:50
  himself it was just really bad strategy calls. Yeah he did straight up come out and say that. He said he wouldn't
• 7:54
  be able to catch him anyway even if even if he got in front of Lewis there. He was like I wouldn't
• 7:58
  been able to to keep it. He would have passed me pretty soon. What? Yeah. I think it's it's also I mean
• 8:03
  obviously it's tough to decide in the moment. I think they gave probably gave Lando that decision
• 8:07
  a little bit. They laid it out if we go softs we probably fight for pole or fight for first position
• 8:14
  but if we go mediums we're defending Max more and unfortunately it was just you know bad info. But
• 8:20
  why why do you not double stack there? What what do you think their reasoning was to not do it?
• 8:24
  Like what was going through their mind at the time? Like obviously it was still I think it was still
• 8:28
  on off reigning at the time like we didn't know quite when it was going to be fully driving. It was a dry run.
• 8:33
  Is that when they didn't double stack? Yeah. Okay. Because Mercedes did double stack that time. That's right.
• 8:38
  Yeah that's right. But why would you not? They're wearing the Ferrari hats. I just don't get it.
• 8:42
  That's I mean their their their strategy is just it's been absolutely terrible. It cost Lando the
• 8:47
  race last week or the race prior to this. And they've made one good strategy decision and that was Lando in Miami.
• 8:55
  The funny thing uh you brought it up already so I want to touch on it. You said that uh Lando obviously
• 9:01
  has the fastest car. There was something that came out um like from like three years ago because Lando
• 9:06
  has had the fastest car the last couple races. Yeah for us like three weeks. And there was something
• 9:10
  that came out like three years ago and they were praising Lewis for winning races. And they go yeah
• 9:15
  of course he's gonna win the race. He's got the fastest car. And now it's like coming back to bite
• 9:19
  him because he said that like a couple years ago when Lewis is winning all the races with the fastest
• 9:23
  car and now he's got the fastest car and he ain't winning. So like there's a guy that was posting
• 9:27
  all that next to him losing with the fastest car. That's hilarious. That's rough. Hey he brought it on himself.
• 9:33
  I mean he was 80s right now. Right. They don't have the fastest car. No. Right but they're damn close at this point.
• 9:40
  They got really good drivers. I was gonna say they're driving the heck out of the cars. Like Lewis to win that race
• 9:47
  looking at his tires at the end of the race. Oh my god it was so you know marbled up on the tires.
• 9:52
  I can't imagine cornering on those things. It would have felt like you're on ice skates I'd imagine.
• 9:57
  And you put it in here uh leave it uh leave me to it mate when he was coming into that 41.
• 10:04
  It reminded you already brought it up but like hammer time. Yeah literally. I got like chills
• 10:08
  when I heard him say that. Yeah leave me to it mate. I was like ooh. Yeah yeah. This race is won. Yeah yeah.
• 10:16
  You ain't catching them. No matter. Not it's not it's over son. No with. But in all honesty like how good
• 10:20
  that Mercedes car just looks right now. Like George got screwed this race. I mean like the
• 10:26
  saying that is. No. It was allegedly a water system issue. Oh yes. It was a water system. Water pressure.
• 10:31
  So they just retired it before possible overheating. It's so crazy to see a car doing so well through
• 10:36
  the whole race and then just like that. Just like that. They have to retire. I hate that. That's
• 10:40
  something I do. That's so rough. That's something I do hate about like specifically F1. Like it just seems like it happens.
• 10:46
  It's happening less I feel like this year than years prior but exactly that. All of a sudden cars running great.
• 10:51
  And then. He wasn't even losing time. No. It was like he was just in the pits and like boxed. And retired the car.
• 10:57
  It's like this dude is in contention to win this race. What are we doing here? It's funny you say it doesn't happen
• 11:01
  because I mean Gasly did the exact same thing at the start of the race. I know. He went to formation into
• 11:05
  the pits and just retired there too. So maybe Silverstone's just a little cursed for a few people. Didn't he have an issue going into it though
• 11:10
  because he had a pit like he had a penalty that he started whatever in the pits and then like that was
• 11:15
  like almost always a plan or something that if they had any issues they were just going to retire.
• 11:19
  Paris started in the pits. I don't know if. I thought Gasly got like demoted to 20th automatically or whatever it was.
• 11:28
  Just a moment. Yeah. But yeah he would. Gasly was he's qualified 20th. He was 20th on the grid to start.
• 11:34
  I mean Gasly did have something wrong in quality because his fastest time was a minute 39 seconds
• 11:40
  to the next a minute 34. I wonder if it was the same issue because they retired the car for a gearbox issue.
• 11:46
  Is what they came out and said or what? So they switched gearboxes that's why he got the penalty at the back.
• 11:52
  So they were just gonna yeah. That's what it was. Yeah and they still had some issue. Yeah I just want to touch
• 11:57
  really quick on Hamilton winning and the just the overall vibe of the race really quick.
• 12:01
  I think I was pretty disappointed just because I'm a McLaren fan fanboy and I saw the strategy kind of
• 12:07
  move both of the drivers out right. Yeah I mean McLaren fan fanboy. Let me finish you know. Yeah go for it.
• 12:13
  But seeing Lewis cross that finish line and seeing the emotion he brought to that podium.
• 12:18
  Oh man it made it all worth it. Toto was excited for him. It was so so nice. I don't know why I had to say Toto like that is Toto.
• 12:25
  Like him and his engineer that was awesome too. I know. They were all excited for him.
• 12:31
  You could hear in Lewis's voice that dude could barely talk at the end of the race like he was
• 12:34
  definitely choked up inside that helmet. He did not take that off for a hot minute. Yeah to win your
• 12:39
  home Grand Prix with the team that you've won eight or seven six whatever it is you know seven eight yeah
• 12:46
  should wdc's with at your home race for the last year with them it's just it's got to feel so good.
• 12:52
  If that's the last race Lewis ever wins what a race that would be. Yeah it would be a storybook
• 12:57
  ending for that like that would cap his career pretty well obviously we know we got a lot more.
• 13:02
  I think with that with the way that car is right now and the way they look I think Mercedes is
• 13:07
  going to be fighting for wins here going forward. They would have won two almost they probably would
• 13:11
  have won two that race him and Russell. Yeah I think they would have won two that race. I don't know.
• 13:17
  Even Max when he buys one of those cars. Even on the start on dry tires when they were using each other
• 13:25
  they were both looking good. They were both looking good. They were pulling away and they're able to use
• 13:29
  each other. I mean I think that's what I'm saying. I'm actually I'm just really impressed with George
• 13:33
  Russell's development like a couple years ago like I didn't I didn't I definitely didn't put him on the
• 13:39
  same pedestal as like Stroll but like he just wasn't consistent at all a few years ago. I'm
• 13:46
  talking like three four years ago like it's been a minute right but you see his development is
• 13:51
  increased and increased and now I think we're starting to get the best of Russell finally.
• 13:54
  He's a good driver. I agree with you 100% he would have been probably two if not one. But like I mean we
• 14:01
  touched on Max a little bit too but the biggest surprise for me with Max was he was P5 to start.
• 14:07
  Four. P4. That was surprising. Yep. He wasn't even like he wasn't even in the fight. What were what
• 14:12
  were the three in front of him again? I mean both Mercedes. It was the Brits. George, George, Lewis,
• 14:16
  and Lando and Lando was two tenths faster. That's conspiracy. George was four tenths faster. Yeah.
• 14:24
  It's crazy. George had a burner in quality. Yeah. Yeah he beat Lewis by what two uh 0.210?
• 14:30
  Uh he beat Lewis by a little over a tenth. Almost two tenths. Two tenths yeah yeah yeah.
• 14:36
  He was he was fast. No it was just over a tenth. Was it just one? Huh? It was I'm looking at 0.8.
• 14:42
  Oh yeah yeah yeah. That's crazy though. Yeah. George, George, uh brrrr. I think if he if
• 14:49
  Russell doesn't retire man the race changes so much if he doesn't retire but like Lando on mediums I
• 14:55
  think he probably could have caught Lewis at the end there. I don't know if I would have wanted
• 14:58
  that to happen that's now seeing Lewis win but. I don't know just Lewis experience that Silverstone
• 15:02
  if they're on the same tire because I think they wouldn't have been because Mercedes never puts
• 15:06
  him on the same tire. He would have been on a medium that's true. I think he would have gone
• 15:09
  onto medium as well if Lando instead went on mediums instead of the softs because I think
• 15:14
  that's that's what made him fall back behind even Max. What did Lewis end on again? Lewis ended on
• 15:19
  softs and he got past Lando at the pit exit so Lando would have been right behind him. He would
• 15:26
  he was right behind him either way but he couldn't catch him. He was like two seconds or so and then
• 15:32
  like off the pace. That's right and then I mean Lewis was catching him regardless. I think. Oh
• 15:36
  yeah I mean Lewis yeah okay yeah Lewis passed him at the pit exit. Yeah but I think even if Lando was
• 15:41
  ahead of him I think Lewis is still catching him. You think so? I think Lando even said that.
• 15:47
  Just in general like in general if he had the mediums on. No no because they were on the same
• 15:52
  tire. What I'm saying so if Lando would have been in front of Lewis coming out of the pit
• 15:55
  section I think Lewis still catches him. The softs are not the tire for that situation.
• 16:01
  Not at all. I think my I'm just pitching if Lando same exact situation Lando just goes on mediums I
• 16:07
  think they're fighting and I think for sure Lando could have taken. Yeah I would agree with that. It
• 16:10
  would have been another one of those ones where like uh the Max Lando fights I think though it
• 16:14
  wouldn't have been probably till the last couple laughs we've seen them fight. Probably. It would
• 16:17
  have got really interesting if Lando was on. Max is just out of it in third there because he can't
• 16:19
  get in and get DRS on him. Yeah. Yeah. Oh man I was so angry when Max got ahead. So was I dude.
• 16:25
  Yeah same. No. I was hoping he was gonna be fourth. Yeah. I saw Russell go out I was like no and then I
• 16:30
  saw the piastry fiasco and I was like no shot we're giving this guy a podium then he got second.
• 16:35
  I was like this is horrible. Yeah it was all strategy. Max too though. I mean it was just tanking. It is mostly strategy but. Well I mean obviously Max is a hell of a driver.
• 16:43
  God he's like you never can count him out right now you still can't count him out. You know. Again starting
• 16:48
  P4 like I thought the same thing I was like whoa even just at the start of the race I was like I knew
• 16:53
  Max would battle you know but I was like I don't I don't think we see Max. I can't believe he got around
• 16:58
  even I mean you're talking about the start and the battle I can't believe you got around Lando that easy.
• 17:02
  It seemed easy to get around Lando off the start of the race. Lando does not start races very well. No. Yeah he he does have an issue with starts I think. He's not as something I did put a note down for like
• 17:12
  piastry in comparison to Lando's just like piastry doesn't back out of an opportunity. He really hangs in there until the absolute last minute. Not as long as Ocon because then Ocon fails but like he hangs in there until the last minute.
• 17:26
  He'll go off the track. That's something I really noticed this race is like dude he really wants that extra position no matter what it is like he's gonna hang in there. Yeah but I think I mean ultimately Max like going on those hards like you said it was going back to like Checo. He was out of the race he wasn't really gonna do anything starting P19 right. So him going on the hards and them getting that data no other car went on hards right when like Red Bull made that switch so they had that data and they're just like so I mean it's Checo's a great team man but you cannot finish P7.
• 17:55
  He's still got like P17 when you get your teammate finishing P2 I don't care. He's two laps behind as well. He's like got a couple more races left for the points thing and his contract. When was that cut off what race the break yeah and I think the break is actually after. The next two races right? After the two races yeah. No no it's after the Belgium. And the break. And then it's a break. Real quick on that I wrote this down because I saw this if you take Hulkenberg's last two races he's still outscored Sergio and Sergio's last six races. Yep.
• 18:25
  You take Sergio's last six and Hulkenberg's last two.
• 18:28
  Hulkenberg outscored him.
• 18:30
  That's crazy.
• 18:31
  That's unacceptable.
• 18:32
  That's unacceptable.
• 18:33
  He has a red bull number two driver.
• 18:35
  That's unacceptable.
• 18:36
  Here, let's add to that real quick.
• 18:38
  Out of the 12 races that have happened,
• 18:41
  seven out of the 12,
• 18:43
  Sargent has outqualified him.
• 18:46
  Outqualified?
• 18:47
  Perez.
• 18:48
  And this race he finished in front of him.
• 18:50
  Seven of 12?
• 18:51
  Seven of 12, he's outqualified him.
• 18:54
  Hogan Sargent.
• 18:55
  That's wild.
• 18:56
  Mr. Sargent almost got him a point this week, but...
• 18:58
  Unreal race out of him.
• 19:00
  Yeah, no, for real.
• 19:01
  He honestly did race really good this time.
• 19:02
  Obviously, we did not expect that at all.
• 19:04
  He signed that deal with the other place,
• 19:06
  and he's like, I'm sending it now.
• 19:08
  Yeah.
• 19:08
  Where is he going?
• 19:10
  Who? Sargent?
• 19:11
  Sargent, yeah, he signed a deal with IndyCar or something.
• 19:14
  Oh, yeah.
• 19:14
  He's going to IndyCar?
• 19:16
  I think he's right, yeah.
• 19:18
  Before this, so, you know, he signed that deal.
• 19:20
  He's like, I'm sending it now the rest of the season.
• 19:22
  I didn't know that.
• 19:23
  Well, yeah, I mean, Williams has made it clear
• 19:24
  he ain't coming back.
• 19:25
  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 19:27
  You just mentioned Holpenberg.
• 19:28
  Let's talk about him real quick, obviously,
• 19:30
  starting in sixth and then finishing sixth.
• 19:34
  What a heck of a race, obviously, honestly, from Haas as a whole,
• 19:37
  because K-Meg early on with the strategy in the wet,
• 19:40
  I believe, if I'm remembering right, didn't he get...
• 19:43
  Nobody went on wets.
• 19:44
  Nobody was on wets.
• 19:45
  Was he...
• 19:45
  No, I'm sorry, enters?
• 19:46
  Didn't K-Meg get enters pretty early?
• 19:49
  No.
• 19:49
  Did he not?
• 19:50
  No, I think he was one of them that was losing time.
• 19:52
  He did it around the same time as LeClair.
• 19:53
  Really?
• 19:54
  Yeah, because there was three, I'm pretty sure there was three drivers
• 19:56
  that went on enters.
• 19:57
  There is LeClair, O'Connor and Joe that had been there.
• 20:00
  I'm thinking of something else, though.
• 20:01
  I made sure not to write it down because it was just crazy.
• 20:04
  Oh, just crazy.
• 20:05
  Just crazy strategy.
• 20:06
  But I mean, Haas as a whole...
• 20:08
  Going on enters early.
• 20:10
  Obviously, K-Meg didn't make points, but I mean,
• 20:13
  and it's not a bad look for Haas, obviously, committing to what
• 20:16
  Holkenberg is doing, but...
• 20:18
  You know who's just licking their lips right now?
• 20:20
  Audie.
• 20:21
  Yes, he looks...
• 20:23
  He's looked so good recently.
• 20:24
  So good.
• 20:25
  You put him in one of those top three, four cars.
• 20:28
  In Sergio's car?
• 20:29
  You put him in that other Red Bull with how aggressive of a driver
• 20:32
  he is in that car underneath him.
• 20:33
  Now, granted, you could make an argument they're the third or
• 20:35
  fast, third or fourth fastest car on the grid, but it's still
• 20:38
  better than Haas.
• 20:38
  But he's probably still finishing at least P5 or higher.
• 20:41
  He's a podium dog.
• 20:42
  He's a...
• 20:42
  With the way he's driving right now, man, he's driving that car
• 20:45
  out of his mind.
• 20:46
  Yeah, but do you think he just...
• 20:47
  Right now, he's just very comfortable in that car?
• 20:49
  Absolutely.
• 20:50
  I think that's also like... it's a double-edged sword, that comment.
• 20:53
  I agree.
• 20:54
  He's racing out of his mind.
• 20:55
  You throw him in like a Red Bull though.
• 20:57
  He might be too much car for the boy.
• 20:58
  Well, it's going to take his person.
• 20:59
  It's going to take his person.
• 21:01
  I'm going to say, are we talking about Holkenberg right now?
• 21:04
  I mean, what's in our minds?
• 21:06
  It's crazy because I think Sergio has pushed us to this dark place.
• 21:10
  That's what I'm saying.
• 21:11
  It's like...
• 21:11
  It's crazy that we're talking about this.
• 21:14
  Sergeant in that Red Bull.
• 21:16
  Oh my gosh.
• 21:17
  Stop.
• 21:17
  Oh man.
• 21:18
  Come on now.
• 21:19
  Come on now.
• 21:20
  Oh man.
• 21:21
  So much damage.
• 21:23
  So much damage.
• 21:27
  Obviously, we've already kind of touched on Ferrari, but...
• 21:32
  just obviously, we won't even really need to touch on them any further.
• 21:35
  Just bad strategy, kind of like...
• 21:37
  Where they should be, right?
• 21:38
  It's unforgettable, you know?
• 21:40
  Or forgettable rather, sorry.
• 21:41
  But it's becoming commonplace for their races to become forgettable.
• 21:45
  Where they should be though, right?
• 21:46
  Fifth?
• 21:47
  I think that's a safe spot for Carlos.
• 21:50
  For Carlos, yeah.
• 21:51
  Yeah.
• 21:51
  That's where he should finish.
• 21:52
  Yeah, right now probably.
• 21:54
  But for Leclerc, they're not even making Q3.
• 21:56
  Yeah.
• 21:57
  There's a problem.
• 21:58
  And obviously, like you said, they're bringing kind of an upgrade to this week, but it's not.
• 22:04
  It's going back.
• 22:05
  It's so like they revert...
• 22:06
  They went to this new wing in the Spanish Grand Prix, and it's created a lot of their...
• 22:10
  It's fixed some of their downforce issues.
• 22:12
  However, it's created porpoise in the high end speed, so they're reverting back to the
• 22:16
  old wing with slight modifications going forward now.
• 22:20
  They'll hopefully fix that porpoise issue so they can actually have a top end car again.
• 22:25
  For sure.
• 22:26
  Because since the Spanish Grand Prix, they have just, woo!
• 22:28
  Yeah, yeah.
• 22:29
  Bouncy ride.
• 22:30
  Bouncy ride.
• 22:30
  And it's crazy to think that the team has two wins this year.
• 22:33
  Yeah.
• 22:34
  Right.
• 22:34
  It feels like so long ago already.
• 22:35
  It does.
• 22:36
  Even Monaco feels ancient.
• 22:37
  And right now, if you ask me if they can even win a race, I absolutely not.
• 22:41
  No, no.
• 22:42
  Not with the performance of McLaren right now.
• 22:44
  And Mercedes.
• 22:45
  Mercedes is still Red Bull and Mercedes climbing into there.
• 22:48
  Mercedes is highly outperforming Red Bull.
• 22:50
  Yeah.
• 22:51
  As a whole.
• 22:53
  Yeah, again, because of Checo.
• 22:56
  Not even that, brother.
• 22:58
  I mean, George and Lewis have been two, three of the last four.
• 23:01
  Three, four races.
• 23:02
  George and Lewis both winning a race.
• 23:03
  Who won last race?
• 23:04
  George.
• 23:05
  Canadian Grand Prix.
• 23:06
  No, the Canadian Grand Prix wasn't the race before, was it?
• 23:09
  It was Austria.
• 23:10
  Oh, I mean before Spain?
• 23:12
  Max won Austria.
• 23:13
  Yeah, okay.
• 23:14
  And then it was the Canadian Grand Prix.
• 23:17
  No, the Red Bull ring is where George won.
• 23:18
  Because Lando and Max were at.
• 23:20
  Oh, he won.
• 23:21
  That's true.
• 23:22
  Who won Canada then?
• 23:23
  Canada was...
• 23:24
  Canada was Max.
• 23:26
  Canada was Max because he came into Canada saying, I'm not going to race very well.
• 23:30
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 23:31
  Because Lando messed up.
• 23:32
  That was like the switch, right?
• 23:33
  Where it was kind of like the opposite of Miami for Lando.
• 23:36
  So, I mean, I guess as of currently, like today, they are outperforming Red Bull.
• 23:41
  Yeah, I don't know if...
• 23:42
  Well, they're almost...
• 23:43
  Tyler was just looking this up.
• 23:44
  Spain, that's right.
• 23:45
  That's where...
• 23:45
  You were just looking this up.
• 23:46
  They almost caught...
• 23:47
  They're almost caught up to Red Bull.
• 23:50
  Yeah, so looking at the constructor standings, like right now...
• 23:54
  No, I was bringing...
• 23:56
  They almost caught up to Ferrari.
• 23:58
  So, Red Bull is still in the substantial lead at 373, then Ferrari is at 302, and then Mercedes...
• 24:02
  Or sorry, McLaren is at 295.
• 24:05
  So, there's seven points behind Ferrari, right?
• 24:09
  How much farther is Mercedes?
• 24:10
  And then Mercedes is at 221.
• 24:12
  So, they're 74, pan-7.
• 24:15
  I mean, realistically, like say the next four or five races, if it continues as it is right now,
• 24:22
  Mercedes is bumping Ferrari and it's a Red Bull-Mercedes-McLaren fight.
• 24:26
  But if Max...
• 24:27
  We have to have Max start dropping down for them to continue that jump.
• 24:31
  I mean, hey, it's just...
• 24:32
  But check out what he's doing, right?
• 24:33
  It's starting to happen.
• 24:35
  I mean, he qualied fourth.
• 24:36
  I mean, we're starting to see him start...
• 24:38
  I know, I know.
• 24:39
  You gotta see where they finish.
• 24:40
  He still won two of the last four races.
• 24:42
  Right, and that's...
• 24:43
  You can't take that away from the guy, but I mean with the performance of Mercedes...
• 24:47
  But Mercedes has also won two of the last four races.
• 24:49
  Well, and you can't forget about the performance of McLaren's car right now.
• 24:53
  If they can keep him on the track.
• 24:55
  Damn near.
• 24:55
  Yeah, right?
• 24:56
  If McLaren can figure out a strategy, I think they're 100% battling at least Red Bull at the end of the season.
• 25:03
  2020, the last season, and at this same point in the year, Red Bull was like 300 points up on the constructors.
• 25:14
  Holy crap.
• 25:15
  Over second place.
• 25:16
  Over second place.
• 25:17
  Yeah, yeah, it just wasn't even a contest.
• 25:19
  It wasn't even a contest anymore.
• 25:20
  And now it's...
• 25:21
  I mean...
• 25:21
  And Mercedes finished second last year, right?
• 25:24
  Mercedes finished second.
• 25:25
  Yes, and Ferrari did third.
• 25:26
  No.
• 25:27
  Yes.
• 25:28
  Ferrari and McLaren.
• 25:29
  Yeah.
• 25:30
  Moving right along, still with our British GP recap.
• 25:34
  We should probably move along here soon.
• 25:36
  But I mean Aston kind of right where we sort of expect them, except stroll finishing in front of Alonso.
• 25:43
  I got to actually give it to stroll for once.
• 25:45
  I mean all day through the rain.
• 25:47
  I mean he kept the thing on the track, which is impressive enough for him.
• 25:52
  But I mean finishing P7 and then obviously Alonso P8.
• 25:57
  I can't imagine Aston's too upset about that right now with the way the season's going.
• 26:01
  They need those points too.
• 26:02
  They have to be ecstatic.
• 26:03
  Yeah, they need those points.
• 26:04
  For sure.
• 26:05
  Both cars and points.
• 26:06
  But to think that a Haas was in front of them...
• 26:07
  I was just about to say that.
• 26:08
  That's the part that's got to rip their heart out.
• 26:11
  You put Nico in and then Haas came in.
• 26:13
  Oh my God.
• 26:16
  Obviously right behind them you had Albahn in the Williams.
• 26:19
  We talked about Williams slightly with Sargent.
• 26:21
  Good to see him back up there.
• 26:22
  You know, not getting points.
• 26:23
  And we didn't even talk about Albahn getting in the points.
• 26:26
  Good to see him back up there.
• 26:27
  That car has looked very impressive the last handful of races.
• 26:30
  They've definitely kind of turned the corner.
• 26:32
  They're on top of...well not obviously Haas is on top of the midfield, but they're fighting
• 26:37
  for that top spot.
• 26:38
  Where are they in the points?
• 26:39
  Who's right behind them since you had it up?
• 26:40
  I'm just curious.
• 26:41
  So it's...
• 26:42
  Who are they fighting with kind of?
• 26:43
  So RB, the Racing Bowl, still have the lead for 6, but then it's Haas, Alpine, Williams.
• 26:48
  So it's Haas at 27, then Alpine 9, Williams 4.
• 26:51
  There's still a steep decline there.
• 26:52
  Yeah, for sure.
• 26:53
  But with the way that Racing...the Haas has looked right now, I mean the Racing Bowls are
• 26:57
  only 4 points ahead of Haas.
• 27:00
  Haas could easily close that gap.
• 27:02
  That's kind of crazy, especially with the way the Racing Bowls have been.
• 27:05
  I mean obviously we saw Sonota get back a point, right?
• 27:10
  But they've been kind of off.
• 27:11
  You might imagine their best year.
• 27:14
  They finished 6 this year, that'd be awesome.
• 27:16
  Haas takes 6, and the construct race, that'd be awesome.
• 27:19
  It'd be such a good F1 drive to survive next year.
• 27:22
  If they take 6, and then Red Bull loses.
• 27:26
  Imagine financially what that does for Haas, if they can pull off 6.
• 27:29
  10 to 13 million bucks.
• 27:31
  We looked that up last time.
• 27:32
  Is that what the difference was?
• 27:34
  Yeah, it's not as much as you would think.
• 27:36
  Yeah, but still.
• 27:37
  Hey, they might get Hulk in a couple years.
• 27:40
  Bring him back.
• 27:44
  But I mean, to think that Aston is still 37 points ahead of the Racing Bowls, that seems
• 27:52
  crazy to me with how little Aston's been performing as of late.
• 27:56
  Compared, and then Racing Bowls had a couple races there that they both were finishing
• 28:00
  alright.
• 28:01
  Yeah, I would have thought that would have been a little bit closer.
• 28:03
  Alonso had a lot of fourths, didn't he?
• 28:05
  Yeah, here I can actually have that.
• 28:08
  So Alonso, no he hasn't had, his best finish this year is a fifth.
• 28:12
  Wow, and they're that much above?
• 28:14
  Yeah.
• 28:15
  Pest driver on the grid.
• 28:17
  He has 45 of the points though.
• 28:19
  Yeah, so Alonso has 45 of the, what did I say?
• 28:24
  Alonso has 45 of the 68 points.
• 28:26
  45 of the 68?
• 28:27
  So Stroll's still putting in the money there.
• 28:30
  Well, I mean, Stroll still has more points than Yuki.
• 28:33
  He still has three more points than Yuki.
• 28:35
  Dang, and we were putting Yuki on a pedestal.
• 28:37
  Stroll has more points than Hulk.
• 28:38
  For that car, Yuki is on a pedestal right now.
• 28:42
  Yeah, yeah, that's fair.
• 28:43
  That guy cannot stay out of the points.
• 28:44
  And I mean, speaking of Racing Bowls real quick, and then I guess there's not really
• 28:47
  anything to really talk about the Alpines.
• 28:50
  But I did find an interesting quote from Danny Rick in an article.
• 28:55
  I thought it was Sports Illustrated, but I can't remember.
• 28:59
  But he just said the stopwatch doesn't lie.
• 29:02
  Like, no, it says, it says formula1.com, but it's like, it was like, I think it was Formula
• 29:06
  One Briefings, which is part of Sports Illustrated, whatever.
• 29:09
  But anyway, anyway, he was just saying how like the stopwatch doesn't lie.
• 29:13
  Like obviously he knows his time's running out.
• 29:16
  He's just not performing.
• 29:18
  You know, if he keeps outperforming Sergio, he might be in a Red Bull by the end of the
• 29:23
  year.
• 29:24
  I think we see somebody else in that.
• 29:25
  I think we see somebody else in that seat by the end of the year now.
• 29:27
  The more and more rumors.
• 29:28
  I mean, at this point, I'm, hey, the rumors are coming out and I'm believing the rumors.
• 29:32
  What rumor are you hearing?
• 29:33
  The rumors is that he had a six, the other part of his contract is he has a six race
• 29:37
  span where he has to out, he has to be within a certain point gap.
• 29:42
  Within a hundred points of his snap in.
• 29:44
  And he has to do a certain thing else.
• 29:45
  He has to be in P5 in the constructors.
• 29:47
  Yes.
• 29:48
  And he's already jumped out of P5 in the constructors.
• 29:51
  Right now he is P6 in the constructors.
• 29:53
  He is six points behind Oscar.
• 29:55
  He's also too far.
• 29:56
  Drivers, sorry.
• 29:57
  WDC.
• 29:58
  And he's also too far away from Max in the points right now.
• 30:00
  So he needs a good two races.
• 30:02
  He is like.
• 30:03
  What is their plan then?
• 30:04
  He's a hundred and.
• 30:05
  So it's either Yuki or Danny Rick that they're going to put in that seat.
• 30:09
  He's a hundred and twenty two points behind Max.
• 30:10
  So he needs to close that gap.
• 30:12
  He needs two big, big races to maybe like, or he might not have a seat when he comes
• 30:16
  back.
• 30:17
  He might be in a racing.
• 30:18
  Might be in a racing.
• 30:19
  You say comes back next year?
• 30:20
  No, or from the summer break.
• 30:21
  Summer break.
• 30:22
  Summer break.
• 30:23
  That's so interesting.
• 30:24
  But who knows how accurate those are?
• 30:26
  Like Red Bull hasn't come out and said that's the clause in there.
• 30:28
  They might have to make a decision though.
• 30:30
  I mean if Danny Rick and Yuki are out performing him, there's no option but to put them in
• 30:34
  the seat in the better car.
• 30:36
  And Danny has the experience.
• 30:37
  If you want the constructors, you might have to.
• 30:40
  That's what I think.
• 30:41
  Unfortunately, I think I'd lean Danny over Yuki just for the experience.
• 30:46
  You have to put Danny.
• 30:47
  It had to be Danny.
• 30:48
  I think so.
• 30:49
  Do they lose, they lose Checos points or has he, has he gained those points for Red Bull
• 30:53
  when he was racing for them?
• 30:55
  No.
• 30:56
  So if you change seats, the points don't drift.
• 30:57
  They don't drift into the next team?
• 30:59
  Okay.
• 31:00
  Correct.
• 31:01
  So he still keeps all of those points he had for Red Bull.
• 31:02
  That's like even more like why not?
• 31:03
  Yeah.
• 31:04
  Yeah.
• 31:05
  I have recently, I will say like in the last two weeks, I've been seeing a lot of clickbait
• 31:08
  titles about Checos specifically.
• 31:09
  So I don't know you, I mean, I haven't seen them all year for signs though.
• 31:14
  But it started after his contract though.
• 31:16
  Yeah.
• 31:17
  It started doing this right after his contract.
• 31:18
  They started talking about all these stipulations in it after he started doing bad.
• 31:21
  And when Corner has come out and said there is clauses in his contract, but they're too,
• 31:25
  nobody knows what they are.
• 31:26
  But he didn't say if they were performance clauses.
• 31:27
  No, they won't.
• 31:28
  They won't come out and say what they are.
• 31:29
  It wouldn't make sense to do that.
• 31:30
  It would also be suited like already with the heat he has if he throws Checo under the
• 31:34
  bus.
• 31:35
  Oh, for sure.
• 31:36
  He has signed him for two years.
• 31:37
  That's best you can say.
• 31:38
  He's got clauses.
• 31:39
  He's got a little bit.
• 31:40
  And that also doesn't surprise me that they structured his contract that way.
• 31:43
  Yeah.
• 31:44
  Yeah.
• 31:45
  It only makes sense.
• 31:46
  There's just no logical sense you give him a two year extension.
• 31:48
  Well, that's why we were so flabbergasted that he signed them multi-year, right?
• 31:51
  One plus one.
• 31:52
  Right.
• 31:53
  I highly doubt it's a two year contract.
• 31:56
  It's a one year contract with probably that option or whatever it is if we're talking
• 32:00
  in other sports terms.
• 32:01
  Yeah.
• 32:02
  Yeah.
• 32:03
  So it's like there's no way he's in that Red Bull seat 2026.
• 32:05
  Yeah, I agree.
• 32:06
  No.
• 32:07
  There's no way.
• 32:08
  I think he's going to be in it all this year.
• 32:10
  Man, if he's out by the break, it's going to be a very interesting Mexican Grand Prix.
• 32:16
  If he doesn't, they don't take first.
• 32:17
  What do they do next year?
• 32:18
  If he doesn't, they don't take first.
• 32:19
  He's obviously not going to be in the Red Bull.
• 32:20
  You don't think he's going to, like for sure.
• 32:21
  So do they put him in a racing bull?
• 32:23
  But it's because like Dave Camone said it's supposed to be.
• 32:25
  I think because he has a contract with Red Bull, I think he's probably going in a racing
• 32:29
  bull.
• 32:30
  But they could, I'm sure that contract, all you got to do is pay the guy whatever it was
• 32:33
  and you can put somebody else in the seat with a new contract.
• 32:35
  Don't run out of contract money.
• 32:38
  If he gets, if he gets at least a little bit of his stuff together by the end of the year
• 32:43
  and finishes this season in a Red Bull seat, I think he still starts next season in a Red
• 32:48
  Bull.
• 32:49
  He has a short leash, but it's short though.
• 32:51
  If he finished the year.
• 32:52
  I mean, we're talking like maybe that six race window or like a five race window.
• 32:55
  Like buddy, you got three points in six races, you're done, you know, or whatever.
• 33:00
  I'll say if he stays in the seat the rest of the year, Red Bull doesn't win the constructors
• 33:04
  this year.
• 33:05
  That's what I think.
• 33:06
  I would agree with that.
• 33:07
  They might not even hold on the second.
• 33:08
  No, a hundred percent, a hundred percent.
• 33:09
  I think, I think it's a battle between McLaren and Mercedes at the top two right now.
• 33:10
  Cause yeah, the top, the bot, the next three are so close together.
• 33:11
  With Checo staying in, it's a battle between those two at the top two.
• 33:12
  I think even if you put Danny Rick in that seat, it's the, they're still, I mean, he
• 33:13
  might consistently grab those seventh to eighths, but I don't know if they're, he's fighting
• 33:14
  for podiums.
• 33:15
  At least he's getting points though, you know.
• 33:16
  I don't think he would.
• 33:17
  Right, right, right.
• 33:18
  I think he'd be consistently five to eight.
• 33:19
  He'll get you, but you know what that does?
• 33:20
  Danny Rick.
• 33:21
  I think he battles with fifth.
• 33:22
  That gives you a 30 to 50 points and that's all you need.
• 33:39
  That's true.
• 33:40
  That's all you need, dude.
• 33:41
  You know?
• 33:42
  You can throw a lot of people.
• 33:43
  I think you can throw a lot of people on here.
• 33:45
  We got to, we got to keep that receipt right there.
• 33:48
  If Checo stays in the Red Bull seat, then Red Bull does not win the Constructors.
• 33:53
  So I can't remember, have we talked about if like, because I have some, it's not insider
• 33:58
  knowledge, but I have some thoughts on it.
• 33:59
  Have we talked about if Red Bull really super cares about Constructors even?
• 34:03
  Oh, they have to.
• 34:04
  They have to?
• 34:05
  Oh yeah.
• 34:06
  Because I think the difference in that, you know, 10 to 13 mil, I don't think the, like
• 34:09
  that's for, you know, those four to 10th place teams.
• 34:13
  I would think they really care about that.
• 34:14
  I mean the difference in 10 mil to a Mercedes, a McLaren, a Red Bull, a Ferrari, I don't
• 34:19
  think that's the thing.
• 34:22
  But it's like the, like you get that, you're number one in the Constructors.
• 34:26
  That has to bring more with it than that six for seventh, right?
• 34:30
  The counterpoint to that is if that was the case, they wouldn't have torn through Albon
• 34:34
  and Gastly that year because they would have just took a young driver and helped him grow.
• 34:38
  I think, I think it's just changed though.
• 34:41
  I think they've gotten their Constructors and I think they're focusing solely now because
• 34:45
  I'm just trying to reason with like the two year contract for Perez instead of kicking
• 34:50
  him and getting somewhere else, right?
• 34:53
  They have to think that driver's champion is way more important than Constructors this
• 34:57
  year.
• 34:58
  They just have to.
• 35:00
  I think they know they're not going to get it with Checo.
• 35:04
  But that doesn't change this year, right?
• 35:05
  Because the contract is for next year and the year after.
• 35:08
  So this year, you're not going to sign Albon and get him in the car this year.
• 35:11
  It doesn't work like that.
• 35:12
  He would have to fulfill that contract.
• 35:13
  Right, but I'm just saying like foreseeing in the future because you know, we only know
• 35:17
  what we know.
• 35:18
  It's a one plus one contract.
• 35:19
  He should technically be racing next year, right?
• 35:22
  So why would they keep him if they know that they can't win Constructors?
• 35:25
  So here's maybe why.
• 35:28
  Because his previous contract guaranteed him to the end of this year, them getting
• 35:32
  him to sign a one plus one may have been able to put a stipulation for him not finishing
• 35:37
  out this season and going to a racing bowl.
• 35:39
  That's probably the only way they're able to get a stipulation put in this year.
• 35:42
  So you're saying it's because his previous contract probably ran to the end of this year
• 35:48
  with no stipulations.
• 35:49
  But if they get him to sign for a one plus one, they can get a stipulation in this year.
• 35:55
  If he's like, okay, you want to race with us for a couple more years?
• 35:57
  Perfect, we'll give you a contract.
• 35:58
  This is a stipulation.
• 35:59
  You have to beat this and this this year and then we'll keep you next year.
• 36:02
  And if you do this good this year, we'll keep you again.
• 36:05
  So you're saying if they pull him have to pull him out of a car and demote him to racing
• 36:09
  bowl, you're saying there's probably another stipulation where he doesn't get paid the
• 36:11
  same.
• 36:13
  I'm sure those clauses are there.
• 36:14
  I would imagine but you're saying if he doesn't finish out the season with Red Bull, then
• 36:18
  there could be a stipulation saying like, well, now you don't you don't obviously get
• 36:23
  a seat next year.
• 36:24
  I think he would still get a racing bowl seat.
• 36:27
  I think he's buying himself a seat.
• 36:30
  He's banking on his own skill to stay the rest of the this year and next year with Red
• 36:35
  Bull.
• 36:36
  So Red Bull doesn't sign contracts for you to to to drive for no drive for a team.
• 36:41
  You're under the umbrella.
• 36:43
  Yeah, you're on the right.
• 36:45
  So what seat you're in is essentially how Marco and Horner decide what's for sure.
• 36:50
  And if you want to have to be performance more than anything else, you would imagine.
• 36:54
  And even like you said a couple of weeks ago, there's they probably extend him because of
• 36:58
  his nationality and all like his fans and stuff like that.
• 37:01
  It's the sponsorships.
• 37:03
  So if they give him a one plus one and he's not in a Red Bull, at least he's still in
• 37:07
  the Red Bull team and they can still market them.
• 37:09
  It's like Danny Rick being the reserve driver last year.
• 37:11
  Right.
• 37:12
  If you look at it that way.
• 37:13
  Yeah, you signed Danny Rick as your reserve driver to, yeah, fill the seat if it needs
• 37:16
  to be filled.
• 37:17
  But you saw the promotional events exactly start going to.
• 37:20
  And of course, they're going to be huge because it's still Danny Rick.
• 37:22
  They even touched on it on Drive to Survive.
• 37:25
  Did they?
• 37:26
  Yeah, it was like, yeah, you get Danny Rick in your system because he can be that face
• 37:30
  because Max don't want to be the face.
• 37:32
  Max just wants to drive a car really fast.
• 37:34
  Yeah, yeah.
• 37:35
  But Danny will be the media presence you need him to be.
• 37:39
  And he enjoys it.
• 37:40
  He does.
• 37:41
  Oh man, do we?
• 37:42
  But I think he would enjoy it more if he was in the Red Bull.
• 37:45
  By the end of the year, he looked rough.
• 37:48
  He looked like he had to jump into rehab or something.
• 37:53
  He also commented like, yeah, I'd much rather be like driving than doing this.
• 37:58
  Sure.
• 37:59
  Yeah.
• 38:00
  Danny Rick to Red Bull by the end of the season.
• 38:01
  With that, let's go into news.
• 38:10
  Heading right into the news.
• 38:12
  Obviously, we'll start off with Newey, Adrian Newey.
• 38:16
  I saw something come up and I don't know how true it is.
• 38:19
  So if you guys want to blast me, that's fine.
• 38:22
  But Newey allegedly now not going to Ferrari.
• 38:25
  I saw that.
• 38:27
  Now he's kind of allegedly making a decision between McLaren and Aston.
• 38:32
  However, he's making these comments, quote, at the same time, I can also take a bit of
• 38:37
  holiday time.
• 38:38
  I've been kind of in the business pretty much nonstop for a long time now.
• 38:41
  So having a little break, a little bit of a break is nice.
• 38:45
  So this was consider calling it quits.
• 38:47
  I don't think so.
• 38:48
  But do you know the top gear guy, the tall guy from Clarkson, Jeremy Clarkson?
• 38:52
  This this all the rumors of it.
• 38:53
  This started because he goes, I got some some tea for you guys or whatever.
• 38:58
  Oh, he's not looking for houses X where you thought he was.
• 39:02
  He's looking for houses right now here and that wasn't looking for houses in Marinela.
• 39:06
  He was looking for houses in Oxfordshire, which would which would more so correlate
• 39:09
  with the Aston and I'm still which if we go back to week like four, that's when we were
• 39:14
  talking about before.
• 39:15
  I said he was going Aston.
• 39:16
  You did.
• 39:17
  You did.
• 39:18
  And then so Jeremy Clarkson is here.
• 39:22
  Jeremy Clarkson and Adrian are like old school like school buddies.
• 39:27
  Right.
• 39:28
  They went to like college or something together.
• 39:29
  They've known each other for years.
• 39:31
  So they're like actual mates.
• 39:33
  I didn't even know.
• 39:34
  I was wondering, it's a weird set to know.
• 39:35
  Hey, you know where this guy shopping for houses.
• 39:36
  You got the same realtor.
• 39:37
  They're like they're buddies.
• 39:38
  That's interesting.
• 39:39
  I didn't know that adds a little sizzle to the rumor.
• 39:44
  There's no way he doesn't go for a right.
• 39:45
  I've definitely heard.
• 39:47
  I've heard the same thing.
• 39:48
  I've heard that either.
• 39:49
  It's I'm just I've heard that the Ferrari talks are over.
• 39:52
  I've heard both that Ferrari turned down him and that he turned down Ferrari.
• 39:55
  How are you going to turn down 105, bro?
• 39:58
  Every time I see it, I go like this.
• 39:59
  Yeah.
• 40:00
  Yeah.
• 40:01
  Pretty much.
• 40:02
  Listen, these are all headlines.
• 40:05
  I'm seeing the headlines and I'm like, I don't really care.
• 40:06
  Until it's actually official.
• 40:07
  We're just not going to know what he's going to do.
• 40:10
  This is this is the.
• 40:11
  I feel like Aston is probably the most viable.
• 40:14
  The Carlos Sines move right now.
• 40:16
  Yeah.
• 40:17
  Same thing.
• 40:18
  We're going to fall into a trap for a couple of weeks on it and then we will never know.
• 40:20
  We're in the trap.
• 40:21
  We've been in the trap for multiple weeks.
• 40:22
  Months, probably at this point.
• 40:23
  I mean, we're sitting here in the trap.
• 40:24
  We don't might not know until the end of the year.
• 40:25
  Like he's just leading us along.
• 40:26
  I'm done, actually.
• 40:27
  I call it quits and then boom, right before the season starts.
• 40:28
  Actually, I've been low key working with Aston this whole fricking time.
• 40:29
  Hey, Nui, you're getting no more airtime here, OK, bud?
• 40:30
  At Banner with the boys.
• 40:31
  Sign a deal or?
• 40:32
  So real quick, before we move on with that, if he is actually considering McLaren and
• 40:33
  it's allegedly between McLaren, Ferrari, and Aston, then I think that's a good thing.
• 40:34
  I think that's a good thing.
• 40:35
  I think that's a good thing.
• 40:36
  I think that's a good thing.
• 40:37
  I think that's a good thing.
• 40:38
  I think that's a good thing.
• 40:57
  I think that's a good thing.
• 41:13
  I think that's a good thing.
• 41:28
  I think that's a good thing.
• 41:44
  I think that's a good thing.
• 41:59
  I think that's a good thing.
• 42:15
  I think that's a good thing.
• 42:30
  I think that's a good thing.
• 42:45
  I think that's a good thing.
• 43:00
  I think that's a good thing.
• 43:15
  I think that's a good thing.
• 43:30
  I think that's a good thing.
• 43:45
  I think that's a good thing.
• 44:00
  I think that's a good thing.
• 44:15
  I think that's a good thing.
• 44:30
  I think that's a good thing.
• 44:45
  I think that's a good thing.
• 45:00
  I think that's a good thing.
• 45:15
  I think that's a good thing.
• 45:30
  I think that's a good thing.
• 45:45
  I think that's a good thing.
• 46:00
  I think that's a good thing.
• 46:14
  This is a good thing.
• 46:29
  engine provider through uh 2028 so so i think they're still keeping toyota in mind for
• 46:36
  past that i think they're looking at it was more of an actual sponsor
• 46:40
  i then like i saw that they're i saw they were thinking about changing the whole power unit
• 46:44
  no for sure yeah no i could i can see them trying like just like yesterday actually a big deal that
• 46:49
  they stayed with ferrari but i mean i could see it also them just like getting a sponsorship
• 46:53
  because they're not repping ferrari right like far is not paying them any money to use their engine
• 46:58
  it's the opposite right so i think that like toyota could ease their way into sponsorship
• 47:02
  and then like hey say hey this is what we can build you if you want to just go with toyota and
• 47:06
  we can make our move for sure so speaking of engines i also heard speaking of the hat here too
• 47:11
  i heard mclaren uh zack brown zack brown right yep yep he was looking for a sponsorship with
• 47:17
  red bull to get their engine really but they're going to ford oh 2026 right they are going to
• 47:25
  ford so are they do you think they're going going for a four it might have been now i'm thinking it
• 47:29
  was ferrari that he was talking to there's something came out recently where zack or he
• 47:32
  was talking to somebody about joe's on it yeah joe's on it but there's somebody he was talking
• 47:37
  to somebody about trying to to partner with them for a power unit now they extended their deal with
• 47:41
  mercedes to 2030 oh snap mclaren yeah oh snap dark web ain't always right huh i'll double check
• 47:49
  this is a weird site i'm sources are getting the waiters actually it's not a weird site it's a
• 47:52
  pretty good site actually uh yeah that is interesting though um i'm thinking of right now
• 47:59
  i don't know dude because red bull like the rbpu is gone so okay the whole the whole like
• 48:05
  conversation around power units in general is interesting because red bull's going with ford
• 48:09
  2 are they going with ford 2 are they sticking with honda i think they're sticking with honda
• 48:15
  is what i actually saw so it's so it's so we're gonna have six power units we're gonna have
• 48:20
  ford we're at red bull ford we're gonna have honda we're gonna have mercedes we're gonna have ferrari
• 48:25
  we're gonna have reno still so stupid and we're going to have outie with their own power unit too
• 48:32
  that's interesting what was last time we had six different power units i think it's been a minute i
• 48:36
  i mean i since maybe there were like the lotus days because that lotus engine was a burner but
• 48:43
  you just listen to that thing in the old kimmy videos bro that
• 48:52
  just a bad engine just a bad car bad car in general bad drivers did you guys see that max
• 48:58
  what were you asked like what the best car he ever drove was or his favorite car and he came out i
• 49:02
  don't remember the exact model it was like the rb like 16 or something that he won i don't think
• 49:06
  he won his first championship with but it was like the year before or something it was something
• 49:11
  like that and he's like the only thing that that like sucked was the top end speed because he just
• 49:14
  called out the reno engine and then his next favorite cars with the last two years
• 49:21
  were they with reno when they won i don't think so no i don't think so wait no well because
• 49:28
  you're talking about max's first one well that's what you were saying that's what max had said i
• 49:33
  could have sworn he only started winning when they had honda but like what did 2022 was first 2022
• 49:39
  was the first year of the honda so max's first championship was with the reno uh vetos was all
• 49:44
  reno okay so reno's since like the start and then they went to their own yeah interesting yeah reno
• 49:51
  used to they used to have a well lotus was also alpine reno right right yeah i mean obviously i
• 49:57
  think it actually was a reno engine i don't think it was lotus's engine but it is crazy to have six
• 50:02
  power units but isn't it kind of crazy how many different teams share a power unit i mean it is
• 50:07
  that that's not crazy that always blows my mind i feel like i feel like i guess if you're one of
• 50:11
  the top teams but if you're one of the top teams why not like like why wouldn't mcclaren try to put
• 50:15
  their own engine in the car i get that but like if you're trying to win championships i don't know i
• 50:20
  just feel like you can already buy a somewhat like a good developed engine i guess like that money
• 50:25
  like to to develop an engine versus buy one but at that level and then you have to look at the
• 50:31
  actual manufacturing of what goes into the engine to get it to this engine that i've previously bought
• 50:35
  because you can take the engine and modify it however you want right it's just the main power
• 50:39
  unit that's designed that you're buying but it's like it's so much and it's like if somebody were
• 50:44
  to do that you're starting that like this year to hopefully get it in 2026 right you're not making
• 50:49
  that switch and having it ready to go it just yeah it just blows my mind kind of no it is it
• 50:54
  is something it's like it's just so weird to me i was about to bring in nascar but i was like
• 50:57
  they do the same thing but like competitors they buy other teams engines like mcclaren
• 51:01
  like mcclaren and mercedes have the same engine yeah i used to i think when i try to like mess
• 51:05
  with that thing a little bit but you do you essentially oh i mean i'm sure there's
• 51:11
  stipulations and whatnot in those contracts dude you're talking bad i don't even want to imagine
• 51:15
  what the cost of a single power unit is and then you're buying what five or six for the year if not
• 51:20
  more than that yeah no i i agree i think when i first started watching and like participating
• 51:26
  i definitely think i was like but they're they like have the same engine so they have some kind of
• 51:30
  partnership right but like obviously it's it's all behind the scenes and it's definitely nothing to
• 51:34
  do on track they're gonna fight each other and some of them do have that partnership right hosta
• 51:38
  ferrari williams to mercedes yeah i mean yeah but then you look at mcclaren and mercedes when we go
• 51:42
  on track you don't see those partnerships happening unless you're like maybe like an
• 51:47
  rb and a red bull but even then i feel like that's probably pretty far-fetched i'd be cool they're
• 51:51
  never in it would be crazy helping like like max somehow or something like that the only time i
• 51:57
  could see that happening would be in like qualy to get like a toe to get somewhere you know i feel
• 52:01
  like i would throw some headlines dude i think that's why because red bull like as much as they
• 52:06
  want to say that like a racing program two teams like that's fun right red bull's gotten a lot of
• 52:12
  fun for everyone that's great cool just stop watching f1 because of red bull at that four cars
• 52:17
  but on that you were saying that uh racing bull is gonna stay on with uh i think they're staying
• 52:22
  on with honda instead of going onto the ford do you think that's because they're using the old
• 52:26
  car the racing bull is using the previous year's cars do you think they only stay on another year
• 52:31
  and then switch to ford maybe it seems interesting that maybe i because they're using their own car
• 52:38
  and we're going down a rabbit hole yeah the only reason i say that i'm pretty sure rb is staying on
• 52:42
  honda is because honda's listed they're the only car that would be on honda no other car would
• 52:46
  would have it yeah so why would they list them as a power unit if not unless they just don't know
• 52:50
  yet like it's also possible that's a good point because they would they probably would be running
• 52:54
  this year's car yeah but that's a that's interesting yeah maybe maybe you're right there
• 53:00
  uh what are you what are you pulling up over there before we move on i'm looking to
• 53:04
  do yep um the the racing bulls and red bull will both use the ford branded engine oh so what are
• 53:11
  they doing with honda honda's going away just i think that's why they're going to ford is honda
• 53:16
  like so honda came out a year or two ago and said we're gonna stop making these engines and then
• 53:20
  red bull's like here's some money at least give me to this year so they so like essentially that
• 53:25
  deal was so that like red bull could find an end manufacturer and allow them to build something
• 53:30
  so they could at least have an engine for that time and then it was decided boom 2026 um and then
• 53:36
  they they went with ford and then honda essentially extended their contract with them to say hey we're
• 53:40
  going to produce this many more engines for this time that's what surprises me the most about new
• 53:45
  leaving red bull is like if you're going to leave leave when the new powertrain comes in like take
• 53:49
  advantage of what you're doing right now especially with how like involved he is in the hypercar
• 53:53
  because red bull just released their hypercar things good by the looks phenomenal looks sick
• 53:58
  looks phenomenal that thing is just clean looks like a hot wheels car it's just does it's literally
• 54:03
  their f1 car with a body wrap yeah like but it's so clean pretty much like six mil uh something
• 54:11
  like that yeah that sounds right actually it was cool seeing newy like talk about how like
• 54:15
  when he's working the f1 car you only can think about you know like aerodynamics and and you know
• 54:20
  how it's going to be best on track but he's like with this one i actually got to like think
• 54:23
  creatively about it so it's yeah really refreshing yeah a little bit yeah really see the
• 54:27
  cool see that come on if that's the thing like if he goes to ferrari for the f1 team and then he can
• 54:32
  maybe work his hand into some ferrari stuff too outside yeah i think he probably enjoys doing
• 54:38
  that yeah because it's it's not only that it's it's lamans right that's what you're designing
• 54:42
  your hypercar for is for lamans so you would have to think that whoever he goes he's going to have
• 54:46
  a plan yeah you'd have to yeah i also don't think you're going to pay somebody 35 mil a year for
• 54:52
  just an f1 right well it's or and i think i mean i'm still adri newy but i think to be honest with
• 54:58
  you like i think newy would want that other like that i think that would be another part of his
• 55:04
  was hey i have to be involved in this and this and this or maybe just like the lamans car or
• 55:08
  whatever the what are they called enduro cars you think do you think he's just an outside the box
• 55:12
  thinker oh my god um clip that anyway um moving on in the news staying with haas real quick
• 55:29
  beerman finally signs with haas for next year uh we knew that was coming uh allegedly rumors of
• 55:35
  oak on the house did you put that on there joh i did who the hell would put that man in a car next
• 55:40
  year what's your dark web say col oak on the house i mean for a long time it was ricarda to haas
• 55:53
  that's what it was for a good amount of time i don't know now now i've heard i'm starting to
• 55:57
  think that the your dark web sources are just your brain this was like this is like four or five
• 56:01
  weeks ago they're saying this right i remember back when ricardo wasn't doing good i remember
• 56:06
  it being brought up when he wasn't doing good so the the most recent news is that like the
• 56:11
  there's been a lot of expectation in the paddock that astabon oak on will join haas but valter
• 56:15
  ibatis is still in the mix so it's he's now between the two that's interesting i feel like
• 56:22
  botas is going to williams if there's still a seat open there is just albons confirmed i agree
• 56:29
  i think it's really between haas and williams that'd be a good move for botas and then he's
• 56:33
  still in the rs80s family because you let's think of it right you put you put him in at williams
• 56:39
  and then next year you put kimmy in the seat he's not performing it's a lot easier to swap
• 56:43
  batis botas than with than albin would be wild that would be wild i don't know why why would it
• 56:50
  happen i mean yeah it's it's it's like he does and he'd be a perfect number two to george now
• 56:55
  it's like a racing bull that's that's ah wow that is why not go rookie then here why not go kimmy
• 57:01
  i think kimmy is the only answer for mercedes next year at this point i think you're probably
• 57:06
  right i think science makes so much sense it'd be better for better situation probably for him
• 57:11
  anyway right now i want him to retire in the family too you think so yeah he would like to do i think
• 57:16
  toto and him because toto and him always had like a really good relationship even in drive to survive
• 57:20
  they sat down and they had their like that that table and they discussed it and valter was like
• 57:24
  hey i get it man like you gotta go with the young buck who is the few who was when he was on williams
• 57:30
  george russia was termed as the next champion oh for sure no they definitely talked about him a lot
• 57:34
  so and then like like valter he completely understood i think there's always going to be
• 57:39
  that mutual respect where i could see him doing that like last ride put him in a mercedes
• 57:43
  and keep him in the family yeah i i like that idea actually i like your thought dude i like
• 57:47
  your thought a lot you can you can be you can feel good putting a risky guy in that spot because if
• 57:52
  it doesn't fail if it fails okay let's put him down for williams for two years or a year yeah well so
• 57:57
  then that just brings up the next point here to round out our news is uh joe did you also put that
• 58:03
  in there i did uh how williams states they're not looking to be a quote stepping stone team
• 58:08
  for you know if signs wants to get in there to get somewhere else yeah i have but then we're
• 58:12
  talking just talking about both us maybe yeah i have thoughts on this because it was like
• 58:18
  signs to williams for a while was like the rumor and he's i mean he's i mean i think he's gonna
• 58:22
  he's rumored to be on every single team from all the headlines that i've seen right so i think and
• 58:27
  nowadays it's probably alpine that he's rumored for but like uh vowels had had there was an article
• 58:33
  that came out with vowels saying that he left like he was winning at mercedes right he didn't
• 58:39
  he didn't come to uh williams you know to feed mercedes more like he was already on that team
• 58:45
  he wants to build williams into like a better team he does not want to be a stepping stone and i was
• 58:50
  like well you don't want to be the stepping stone but that's exactly what you're going to be until
• 58:54
  you can make a car that can compete like consistently all the time like i think i don't think albons a
• 58:59
  bad driver and obviously he can't get like amazing points all the time so stuff still needs to be
• 59:05
  figured out you come to like the race with a single a single uh like replacement chassis you
• 59:10
  have to give your car to your other driver it's just it's stuff that does not promote a team that
• 59:16
  will grow into a legacy like it already has like it like you you went to this team obviously to make
• 59:21
  it your own and whatever you just can't have that yet so that's the only reason that i put that there
• 59:26
  um you don't turn down you don't turn down science if he wants to go to williams yeah it's that's
• 59:31
  what i would think that's what i'm coming down to money at that point is the only thing yeah science
• 59:35
  can join and say hey i'm at my stepping stone right now and they'd go cool thanks for driving for us
• 59:42
  he's going there and i'm sure like the reason why that came up is because you know conversation
• 59:45
  came i was like science could come to you for like hey let me drive for you for one year so i can go
• 59:49
  and be an outie after that or something like that right and i'm sure maybe that isn't how the
• 59:54
  conversation went and he's just covering himself a little bit and saying no we're not a stepping
• 59:59
  stone team yeah we're an f1 team but i mean at the same time like i get the williams mindset there
• 1:00:04
  right if you're only gonna have science for a year you're gonna pay him a lot more than you're
• 1:00:08
  gonna pay valter or one of these other drivers like is is he gonna finish high enough in the
• 1:00:13
  constructor in the you know the wdc to put you above that level in the constructors where you're
• 1:00:18
  going to make that money back instead of investing in somebody possibly of the future for sure so i
• 1:00:23
  totally get that williams mindset too though it's a good mindset to have it's just i don't know in
• 1:00:28
  bad bad timing i think i just don't think they're there yet yeah 100 agree with that
• 1:00:33
  yeah yeah with that we'll close out our news
• 1:00:43
  and right back at it with our hungry hungry hungarian preview uh go ahead and let joe
• 1:00:50
  take it away with the history of the hungry group yeah jeez hungry and gp just take it away joe do
• 1:00:58
  your thing okay looking forward to the formula one hung get oh no you got me now hungarian grand
• 1:01:05
  prix 2024 um just another another fun fact per usual okan took his maiden f1 win in 2021 here
• 1:01:13
  and george claimed his first f1 pole in 2022 at this track um i feel like we usually see a bit of
• 1:01:21
  action turn one here um so i'm hoping for a little little more carnage early on uh last year we saw
• 1:01:27
  crazy qualifying positions from the salver team we saw joe and fifth and botas and seventh beating
• 1:01:32
  out sergio and carlos both i don't think we're going to see that this year but still kind of
• 1:01:36
  crazy that we saw last year um looking at our starting grid we saw louis to max to lando to
• 1:01:43
  oscar in turn one we saw wheel-the-wheel action between max and louis as the current wdc gets
• 1:01:50
  ahead to first meanwhile from fourth oscar covers both his teammate and louis to slide in the second
• 1:01:56
  place after the first turn lando quickly overtook louis on the outside of the next corner for a 2
• 1:02:01
  3 mclaren running early in the race further down the grid the first turn we saw some contact from
• 1:02:07
  our favorite teammates ocon and pierre after joe locked up in the back of danny who ran into the
• 1:02:12
  alpines both of those cars retired after a heavy uh heavy wing and wheel damage were sustained
• 1:02:19
  we got to witness some world-class defending from alonzo and seventh i feel like i've seen
• 1:02:22
  multiple different scenarios where alonzo's defending here and he's doing great um he's
• 1:02:28
  defending against sergio behind on lap six he was able to hold him off for a couple more laps until
• 1:02:33
  checo took the position in lap eight lap 19 after a round of pits from mclaren norris was able to
• 1:02:38
  outpace a very quick two second pit stop from piastry and got ahead into second right out of
• 1:02:43
  the pit exit into turn one charles who had been having a very clean race got a five second penalty
• 1:02:48
  for speeding in the pit lane after locking up right at the entry line and then checo who had
• 1:02:52
  a mega recovery from quali found fourth place from piastry thank you on lap 47 a net third place
• 1:02:58
  after pit stops across the finish line 33 seconds ahead of second place max verstappen took first
• 1:03:06
  place at the hungarian grand prix so our final was verstappen to norris peres to hamilton piastry
• 1:03:13
  to russell claire to science and then alonzo to stroll this is max's seventh victory in a row and
• 1:03:18
  red bull's 12th win in a row a consecutive record breaker um verstappen was caught saying what an
• 1:03:24
  unbelievable rocket ship that was today that was very enjoyable 33 seconds man last year was boring
• 1:03:33
  oh i hated i'm sure i hated that race dude did we see didn't we see a 33 second
• 1:03:40
  win by verstappen this season too what's it 33 or like it would have been early but i thought
• 1:03:45
  it was like really early we saw i'm sure we've definitely had a long like a long one from
• 1:03:49
  verstappen but that's ridiculous like this is ridiculous and he started in i mean he started
• 1:03:53
  in second but still that's it's crazy dude no so verstappen's first win was 22 then saudi was 13
• 1:04:05
  and then australia was two and he hasn't had like a go away so it's 22 okay okay but like last year
• 1:04:10
  30 seconds for verstappen win was normal yeah that was completely normal no just straight red bull
• 1:04:14
  dominance all season man um no i mean what's interesting is obviously we we know how important
• 1:04:23
  practice is leading up to the weekend obviously and right now as of like 30 minutes ago the pit
• 1:04:30
  lane is still flooded like ankle deep uh so we'll see really if they can actually now the weather
• 1:04:38
  for the weekend i've already looked obviously that how do you say the track the hungering
• 1:04:42
  hungarian hungararing yes hungararing yeah no thanks uh just outside budapest so i already
• 1:04:51
  looked up the weather and it looks like it's gonna be dry for the weekend but like it's
• 1:04:55
  interesting if they let's say can't practice on friday you know what i mean i feel like every
• 1:04:59
  every session is important but does that just hurt the the young drivers this weekend isn't
• 1:05:05
  there isn't there a couple isn't there a couple young drivers that are uh that are coming in to
• 1:05:09
  try out the car oh i think you're right that last weekend no i think you're right i think there's
• 1:05:16
  they have as many as they definitely can i don't know i thought that uh i thought that
• 1:05:21
  not ollie but um what's the guy's name jack dohan was maybe gonna come in now who's it was a backup
• 1:05:27
  reserve for um uh mercedes kimmy yeah antonelli no it's mick yeah i did too no you're right you're
• 1:05:37
  right you're right it's probably not from a reliable source but i saw something about mick
• 1:05:42
  hey you know i'm like 95 percent i'm not saying you i'm saying what i saw after some of the stuff
• 1:05:47
  you said earlier this year like you said you said checo was not gonna get like in top five
• 1:05:52
  we all thought that was why and that's happening like that's it's crazy so far i need to start
• 1:05:57
  putting these bets in i gotta find a place to do it you gotta drive south buddy like what two hours
• 1:06:04
  and then you can oh man diamond joe's yeah yeah uh i don't know we were talking before we started
• 1:06:11
  recording that who was it ferrari and merce not mercedes and red bull are both bringing upgrades
• 1:06:16
  but ferrari's isn't necessarily as much as an upgrade is like a revert but they're still making
• 1:06:21
  modifications to it it's not just the exact same old floor okay and red bull we can't you can't
• 1:06:25
  find any information on red bull because it's major upgrades and helmet marco saying that it's
• 1:06:31
  just needs to change what happens or else like you know they're screwed which is true right i saw the
• 1:06:36
  same thing though like the same caption around ferrari major upgrades coming then ferrari releases
• 1:06:41
  it and something like this yeah you know maybe you're describing last year's car red bull you
• 1:06:45
  know even the last time it was for ferrari like it was before monica if i'm not mistaken it was
• 1:06:49
  a goal major upgrades coming and charler carlos came out no it wasn't before monica i want to say
• 1:06:53
  it was a weekend before after but he was like yeah it was like point i can't tell you the exact
• 1:06:58
  times but it wasn't as big as the media was making it out yeah i think i think it was supposed to be
• 1:07:02
  half a second it was like yeah yeah yeah it was supposed to be like or something probably no it
• 1:07:07
  was at it was at monica but they didn't see it at monica they saw they would have saw it the next
• 1:07:10
  race because it was more for the uh the next race was spain and that's when the car actually took
• 1:07:15
  a downfall because of the poor pristine yeah that they're now trying to fix for sure uh with that
• 1:07:21
  you might as well give us an update kind of on our our personal podium here you probably just
• 1:07:25
  took this part right and then and then let us know what our what our bonus points are going to be
• 1:07:31
  this week we'll do we'll do so after last week um we are we had a louis max lando podium nobody
• 1:07:38
  got all three points um i myself got two so i'm still in the lead at 24 col himself got two as
• 1:07:45
  well so he is second and 23 smelty you also got yourself two so you're at third and 22 and joey
• 1:07:51
  only snagged one point last week he had 18 that's right um and then our bonus question last week was
• 1:07:57
  who's going to finish eighth place none of us got it so no bonus points awarded last week so i should
• 1:08:02
  get a negative point since my driver didn't even complete a lap my eighth place driver gasly retired
• 1:08:08
  to me so in that case then smelty has 21 it was a joke we don't need to make it reality so this
• 1:08:16
  week we're going to throw a throw a kind of wild card out there the bonus point is going to be the
• 1:08:21
  or the bonus two points my apologies is going to be who is leading at the end of lap 35 which is
• 1:08:26
  the halfway point of the 70 lap race so as soon as he passes on lap 35 so it'll pop up his lap 36 on
• 1:08:31
  the yep yeah so whoever crosses the finish line yeah that's a good point yes so as soon as he says lap 36 who
• 1:08:39
  cross that line correct yeah okay yes that sounds good yes so as the new way we are doing it here
• 1:08:45
  um i will go first here i am going to go with louis george and lando this week and there's my
• 1:08:51
  podium whoa no max no max in the podium this week and i think that george is going to be the halfway
• 1:08:57
  point leader oh that would go next to coal yeah that now i want to switch my halfway leader
• 1:09:05
  i was gonna um you're gonna go george yeah i'm gonna go george too i'm gonna do louis george
• 1:09:10
  versus stappin and uh i was gonna do george halfway um i'm gonna do
• 1:09:19
  i'm gonna do lando halfway lando halfway okay he's gonna be late or something next we have smelty
• 1:09:27
  yeah um yeah i'm going crazy max lando piastri for my podium and then leading halfway
• 1:09:44
  those are both really good picks uh
• 1:09:49
  we'll go max yeah just do it i was gonna say just yeah it'll be like halfway i don't think he'll
• 1:09:56
  win the race honestly to be honest with you but i think halfway sure whatever safe bet right
• 1:10:03
  i think it's going to be in no particular order obviously for stappin norris hamilton
• 1:10:08
  i was going to say max halfway but in the spirit of being different i'll say louis checko i like
• 1:10:15
  that we have three different podiums this week nobody repeated the podium and it's funny how
• 1:10:20
  that is actually changing now to look at what the podiums are at the beginning of the year
• 1:10:24
  and now looking at it now now now it's starting to get a little bit more unpredictable we'd only
• 1:10:30
  get one different beginning of year it'd be like one or two guys that are different third place
• 1:10:34
  yeah it was max checko and then like who do you want charles or carlos yeah yeah to think that
• 1:10:40
  colin i picked louis week one was kind of silly and then we both didn't have checko in there
• 1:10:48
  yeah with that that wraps our podium predictions for the hungarian gp got it right
