• 0:02
  Speaker 1: greenex Bike. Tell me how good are you an F
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: one fan? Naturally? Or you just sort of dip utau
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: in periodically.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: How you appreciate the fact that they could drive like
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: cart I've sort more of a great driver out there, Mike.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: That would be as good a race. It was as
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: good a race as you will ever see, not only
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: as the season closed up with McLaren being genuinely competitive
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: with Red Bull and Verstappan's running Red Bull by himself
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: because Pereza isn't up to anything, so McLaren. Both drivers
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: are there or thereabouts. But what unfolded was as good
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: as it gets.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Well, you've got Norris and for starving with the punctures
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: what sixty fourth lap? Yeah, you would have thought for
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: starting had it pretty much sort of a gentleman and
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: that particular juncture. And then well a driver we've been
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: talking about for while, George Russell, who I've got a
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: lot of time for it seems to really have some
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: composure there behind the wheel, has has taken it out
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: so his second if I But here's.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: The thing, so when we stap and goes in for
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: the pit stop, they can't pull the back wheel off.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Why is that? That's pressure, you see, That's what happens
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: with the field, So pressure they crack and then suddenly
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Norris's back. And do you remember when Lewis Hamilton and
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Vastappan back in the days when Mercedes were competitive, they
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: ran over each other, they crashed regularly, and this was
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: the same. This is just Norris is replaced and that's
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: what makes it so exciting.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Well, Norris's rice the season has been one of the highlights,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: hasn't it. Just a casual observer, he's a genuine and
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: it's great to have this competitive NAEs coming back to
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: it because red Bull been so strong for so long,
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: So no, I'm welcome in. So as a neutral fan.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: You've got red Bull, you've got McLaren, you got Mercedes,
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: and you got Ferrari a genuinely competitive now and so
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: that's good for them.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: That's gas more than that, good for the sport.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Tell twenty. Once they got across the line, was that
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: a success in any way, shape or form. Did that
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: do for cricket what it was supposed to?
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: I think they will argue just the entry into the
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: United States any subsequent to that with the the MLC
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: Major League Cricket coming up, I'll say it's a launching
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: pad if you like to try and keep that sustained.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: I think they've been let down by the pictures over
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: the course of the tournament. I mean, fortunately, it's produced
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: some close games and you've had outsiders coming through into
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: the last eight, et cetera. Afghanistan, United States, but ultimately
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: the juggernaut that's India has has won through. So yeah,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: and I'm pleased with South Africa to to be able
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: to make the final of a major tournament as well.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, they've been threatening for so long. I've been
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: accused of the dreadful tag, that the choker tag if
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: you're like in semi finals, et cetera. So to get
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: through to the final for the ms of a breakthrough,
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: but I just felt like, yeah, that the pictures went
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: up to it another it's if you're a better and
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: you have that, you want a good competition between bat
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: and ball. But the inconsistency meant that there was just
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: the hesitancy on their part.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: And I know you want to celebrate the warriors, don't
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: we all? Don't we all?
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: At sixty six six last time I was sitting in
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: this seat last week.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: So, but I don't know. We got Andrew Webster on
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the program tomorrow and so I don't know what happened.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: I don't know how you explained it was an interview
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: of your ILK cast came well, I'm going to have
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to But at the end of the day, it was
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: a very good game though, because the Broncos are a
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: solid side and they had the you know, the ability
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: to come back, but they never looked like they were
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: going to win.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: The Warriors continue to produce the magic when you're at
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: least expected in vice versa. So but I mean they're
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: going to stick with what tomorrow, mate, And.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Every time, every time he's on the field, he does stuff.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: This is entertaining, changing the guard potentially here. Yeah, I think. Yeah,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: all right, Andrew, nice to see you, lovely, Mike, go well.
