And welcome here to another

1:05

edition of Oscar Online Headlines,

1:07

Sean Callahan, Steve Sippel, and

1:10

we're gonna talk plenty of

1:12

basketball, but I hope you got

1:14

a lot of. in the locker, not

1:16

a lot's gone on since China

1:19

in terms of news and storylines

1:21

to keep an eye on. So

1:23

it actually, obviously sarcasm fully loaded

1:25

there, it actually made for a

1:27

Friday viewing of interest for sure

1:29

because of Yuki's note of course

1:32

being in the red ball, awesome

1:34

back down in the V-carb, down

1:36

or up, we will discuss that.

1:38

Is it a demotion, is it

1:40

a promotion? Is it a promotion?

1:43

But Tommy, how you feeling bro? the

1:45

first session had the intrigue of seeing

1:47

how people would do and then the

1:49

second session had absolute carnage basically couldn't

1:52

have been more polar opposite really yes

1:54

because let's be honest nobody set their

1:56

alarms for FP1 if you're in the

1:58

UK but we did catch up on

2:00

it And it was pretty uneventful, you

2:02

know, when you watch the highlights and

2:05

they talk about the liveries and just

2:07

generally cars going round on track and

2:09

the lap times that they did that

2:11

there wasn't much to talk about. Of

2:13

course Lando went off slightly, or was

2:15

it Oscar? One of them McLarens went

2:18

off, Lando went off, slightly. Or

2:20

was it Oscar? One of the

2:22

McLarens went off, Lando, and Lando

2:24

in the last chic. One-tenth off

2:26

of new teammateake New Teammate Max

2:28

for Stappin, which... Well, I was

2:30

saying and thinking before we watch

2:33

through practice too, here we go,

2:35

okay, all right, Rebela found the

2:37

solution, but we can't really say

2:40

too much about FP1, can we? No,

2:42

because don't get me wrong, you did

2:44

a good job and it is

2:46

a big headline kind of statement

2:48

to go in and immediately. Just

2:51

for Redball racing to be able

2:53

to tweet a graphic that doesn't

2:55

say P5, P20, that actually has

2:57

the two cars together for the

2:59

first time in a very long

3:01

time, is good for them. Of course, we

3:03

don't know yet because of, we'll get

3:06

into this, but obviously Sonoda didn't

3:08

really set a proper lap

3:10

in the interrupted FP2 session,

3:13

but the thing is... We don't know the

3:15

kind of pace of the car and

3:17

if Max is on the hot lab

3:19

or whatever, we will find out in

3:21

EP3. But it is definitely a promising

3:24

start for Yiki, that's

3:26

for sure. Certainly is.

3:28

First question, P1Patory member,

3:30

SavageMonkey 3.0, how well has

3:32

Yuki adjusted so far? He hasn't

3:35

binded it, hasn't caused a

3:37

red flag, like quite a

3:39

few drivers, Fandolonsa. I mean I say

3:41

that like I didn't give him because because

3:43

surprise this weekend don't know what I'm saying

3:45

about that but you know I just take

3:47

any any sort of opportunity to pray for

3:49

your downfall. But yeah you keep look he's

3:51

not made any headlines for any bad reasons.

3:53

FP1 as we said up in P6 a

3:55

tenth off Max that's all you can ask

3:57

for and probably a little bit more than

3:59

we. all expected. Free practice too, he

4:01

didn't even do a soft representative

4:03

run, we'll get into FP2 a

4:06

little bit more shortly. Sandbagging, clearly.

4:08

Sandbagging. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he knows

4:10

he's got all that pace in.

4:12

You reckon, yeah, get a pole

4:14

position. Okay. But yes, I think

4:16

the only thing you can say

4:18

from Friday practice is that he

4:20

didn't do anything drastically wrong and

4:22

that's great. Exactly, that's all. Red

4:24

Bull needed really to just him

4:26

have a solid session which he

4:28

had a more than solid session

4:30

in the first one and then

4:32

the second one you know there'll

4:34

be headlines and we'll talk about

4:36

it of which car is actually

4:38

quicker because of the lap times

4:40

between the two Red Bull cars

4:43

but we didn't we didn't actually

4:45

see what what Yuki could do

4:47

in that interrupted session so we'll

4:49

have to find out tomorrow really.

4:51

A next question, this makes me

4:53

laugh, but we're going to read

4:55

it out anyway, at McCrickers. Does

4:57

Yuki's initial performance show Horner and

4:59

Marco were wrong all this time?

5:01

Wow, that is one of the

5:03

biggest knee-jerk reactions I've seen so

5:05

far this season. One Friday practice

5:07

in the locker, Yuki Senoda, one

5:09

of the best drivers we've seen

5:11

in the modern era, they were

5:13

all wrong. Let's just wait and

5:15

see. I still think Red Bull

5:17

are struggling. Overall, we saw some

5:20

very difficult on boards for Max

5:22

Verstappen in particular, where they will

5:24

actually line up. I'm actually quite

5:26

confident now, and I wasn't coming

5:28

into this weekend about my crazy

5:30

prediction about racing balls potentially being

5:32

ahead of Red Ball. But from

5:34

this Friday running, it's looked like

5:36

it could genuinely be possible. So

5:38

we will wait and see on

5:40

that one, won't we tell me?

5:42

We will. Yeah, we don't know

5:44

yet. You know, if Yiki does

5:46

do well. We'll have this conversation

5:48

because I think there's a lot

5:50

to be said about Horner and

5:52

Marco's management of the Redball team

5:54

and how you know in two

5:57

races they've They've put the guy

5:59

that potentially, well arguably, should have

6:01

been there in the first place.

6:03

And so if he does a

6:05

good job, it does kind of

6:07

embarrass them even though obviously they'll

6:09

want him to do a good

6:11

job. One thing I have not

6:13

seen though, and I can't believe that

6:15

journalists haven't asked, is why wasn't Yuki

6:17

put in in the first place? No

6:19

one seems to have asked Christian

6:21

Honda that question. It'd be interesting

6:24

to see. I think the team

6:26

principle... press conferences today I believe

6:28

so it would be interesting

6:31

to see if that gets asked. But

6:33

of course, you know, Yeki Sinoda

6:36

was the more experienced

6:38

driver, the more fan favourite, the

6:40

more commercial driver. So

6:42

why they put Lawson in the

6:44

first place because we've heard from

6:47

them and something that Christian

6:49

Honda has actually said

6:51

is that hearing from the Red

6:54

Bull team themselves. He kind of

6:56

alluded to the fact that Lawson was out

6:58

his depth a bit when they were talking

7:00

about car setup and how to actually

7:02

get a handle on the car. So I

7:04

really want to know why Yiki wasn't putting

7:06

in the first place for me. So do

7:09

I. We're not going to get a... actual

7:11

answer are we though if anyone asks that

7:13

and they probably have to be honest with

7:15

you I seem to recall sort of wishy-washy

7:17

answers of the fact that they were both

7:19

very close and they decided to go with

7:21

Lawson over Sonoda but I think as you

7:23

say very more commercially viable. I'm a market

7:25

to blame Adrian Newi and then Adrian Newi's

7:27

wife tweeted this makes no sense he

7:29

was unguarding leave. I

7:32

don't know if you saw that.

7:34

I did. I didn't see the Newy

7:36

wife tweet, but I did see the

7:38

Marco slander towards Newy. Basically just overall

7:41

just shows what crazy situation rebel are

7:43

in currently. They're all just sort

7:45

of internally combusting right now. This time

7:47

last year, they were in McLaren

7:50

situation of like they're untouchable,

7:52

you know, they're four tenths clear

7:54

what's happening. Is what an absolutely

7:56

insane thing to think literally

7:59

this time last... year, we're going, no one

8:01

will catch Red Bull, they're invincible. Let's

8:03

get on to free practice two

8:05

then. And this one was the exact

8:07

opposite of what we saw in

8:10

free practice one. It was crazy. We

8:12

had four red flags, one of

8:14

which was caused by Jack Dewin, who

8:16

had a massive crash. It was

8:18

such high speed into turn one. And

8:20

I was watching the sky coverage.

8:22

I know you were as well, Tommy,

8:25

not particularly leaning towards a reason

8:27

as to why he crashed that way.

8:29

Immediately when I saw it, that

8:31

looks exactly like me on the F1

8:33

game many, many times where I've

8:35

forgotten to close DRS and the rear

8:37

has gone, goodbye. And then you

8:39

just lose all downforce and you're into

8:42

the wall. It looked almost exactly

8:44

the same for Dewin. And then riding

8:46

on board as well, you see

8:48

the replays and you see the F1

8:50

TV analysis and Jolyon Palmer, who

8:52

is great. And he said that, know,

8:54

you can see on the steering

8:57

wheel that there's these green lights, which

8:59

suggest that the DRS is open.

9:01

So as much as from the replays,

9:03

you can't see necessarily the rear

9:05

flap open. By the time, obviously, he

9:07

starts to lose it, he's probably

9:09

pressed the brakes and therefore the DRS

9:11

closes automatically. But if you aren't

9:14

aware, you know, DRS doesn't close automatically,

9:16

it's whenever you press the brakes.

9:18

So press the brake, DRS closes. But

9:20

into turn one, they press the

9:22

brakes so late, pretty much into turn

9:24

two, that they have to manually

9:26

close the DRS. And from what it

9:29

looks like right now, whether there's

9:31

been more analysis, we wait to see,

9:33

it just looks like Dewin has

9:35

forgotten to close his DRS. There was

9:37

obviously the reasonings potentially of bottoming

9:39

out of him dipping a wheel. I

9:41

don't think he dipped a wheel,

9:44

didn't look like he dipped a wheel.

9:46

The bottoming out thing is hard

9:48

to obviously judge. But from what I've

9:50

seen, that is very much driver

9:52

error for getting to close the DRS.

9:54

It seems a very plausible reason

9:56

and I'm inclined to go with recent,

10:00

you know, Formula One driver that's

10:02

kind of driven in Formula One

10:04

failure recently in this DRS era,

10:06

if you like. As

10:08

you were saying that, one thing

10:10

that popped into my

10:12

mind was back when they

10:14

were kind of allowing DRS. There

10:18

was that moment, I believe it

10:20

was 2018 at the British

10:22

Grand Prix, and they kind of

10:24

allowed DRS through corners and

10:26

things. And yeah, Marcus Erickson forgot

10:28

to close the DRS there.

10:30

And it's a very similar crash

10:32

where the rear just it's like

10:34

it literally like banana peel Mario Kart,

10:36

the whole back end just spins around

10:39

and you're a passenger. And it looked

10:41

very, very similar to that. So I'd

10:43

be inclined to believe that was the

10:45

case. But just thank

10:47

goodness he's okay because

10:49

you see, it's

10:52

a weird thing to say, because you know,

10:54

Formula One cars are going fast. But until

10:56

they go off, you don't kind

10:58

of almost get that realization of

11:00

just how insanely quick they're going

11:02

into these corners. Because boy, when

11:04

when you kind of see him go

11:06

off, you're kind of taken back and go

11:08

all my word. This is quite insane.

11:10

It was quite an uncomfortable watch to

11:13

see the car going in that

11:15

quick. And just just

11:17

madness that this kind can happen. And

11:19

he can jump out now. I

11:21

mean, it is incredible. So glad to

11:23

see do and walk away from

11:26

what we know as unscathed. What

11:29

I will say as well on

11:31

the whole doing conversation that maybe hasn't

11:33

been spoken about is, and

11:36

this kind of points more towards

11:38

again, Alpine, not exactly

11:40

backing doing for

11:42

his entire rookie season. It's the fact that he had

11:44

to sit out for practice one. Now he's

11:46

literally a rookie in the third race

11:49

of the season. And they've put

11:51

Hirakawa in to replace him rather than

11:53

Gasly, which tells you, I think

11:55

in my opinion, all you need to

11:57

know about where Alpine's eggs lay. So

12:00

for me obviously doing is on

12:02

the back foot slightly, yes he

12:04

should have built up more and

12:06

you know the absolute categorical reason

12:08

has not been put out there, but

12:11

what we've kind of discussed I

12:13

think is very plausible with the

12:15

DRS not being closed. You have

12:17

to feel a little bit for him in

12:19

the sense of yeah. If a team generally

12:21

wants a driver to improve and

12:23

build into a season, they give

12:25

him free practice one in his

12:27

third race weekend. But alas, glad

12:29

does he do and walk away from

12:32

it okay? If it is put

12:34

down to absolute driver error, then

12:36

it's not good for his prospects

12:38

for the future. Of course, the

12:40

colopinto rumor mill will continue on,

12:42

I'm sure. But yes, we move on

12:45

now to a question from Illinois' 87.

12:47

Were the commentators too nice when saying

12:49

that Dewin's crash wasn't driver error? He

12:51

didn't close his DRS. Obviously we've touched

12:54

upon this, but I think that

12:56

it's not necessarily being too

12:58

nice as commentators. I can

13:00

understand if there's not a

13:02

logical explanation right there to describe, then

13:04

they have to kind of play slightly

13:07

cautious. We can be a little bit

13:09

more, well I think it was this.

13:11

But realistically commentators are supposed to say

13:13

what they see and then analyze the facts

13:15

and the camera angles weren't ideal. We

13:17

kind of needed a rear view facing

13:19

camera of Duans on board and then would

13:22

be able to tell immediately what happened. I

13:24

know some people might be saying the DRS

13:26

was closed but by the time we could

13:28

actually see it he was already losing the

13:30

car and that's probably where we were

13:32

just going on that green light thing

13:34

weren't we on the steering wheel which

13:36

supposedly means that it's open and he's

13:39

turning at that point. I'm sure. Maybe Formula

13:41

One and Julian Palmer has more

13:43

angles and things because we know that

13:45

F1 TV go into a lot more

13:47

detail and can analyze it. The sky

13:49

don't obviously get to do that until

13:51

maybe after the session where they can get

13:53

on the sky pad and do things like that.

13:56

So like you say, they can't wildly speculate

13:58

and go, oh, you know, you might... you know if

14:00

it wasn't driver error and they

14:03

were like oh jet duen what

14:05

a mistake he's in the bin

14:07

get get colopinto in and they

14:09

can't they can't do that no

14:12

they can't next question people on

14:14

patrie remember Fraser what's going on

14:16

with Alonzo well look as a

14:18

number two driver Asta Martin Fernando

14:21

Alonzo he's just building into his

14:23

rookie season look it's going from

14:25

bad to worse for Alonzo so

14:27

far this year As in, well,

14:30

to be fair, it's just been

14:32

worse. There's been no good moments

14:34

to speak of a Fernando's season

14:36

and I thought, well, all he

14:39

has to do is finish in

14:41

Japan and I've got a big,

14:43

well, a good surprise locked in

14:45

and can't even finish free practice

14:48

too, Tommy. So... And that is

14:50

finished. Look, it was actually quite

14:52

an uncharacteristic error for Fernando Alonzo,

14:54

just literally... not understanding the specifications

14:57

and width of his car. That

14:59

is a genuine driver error dipping

15:01

a wheel into the grass and

15:03

then going off at Degnar 1.

15:06

It is uncharacteristic and I wouldn't

15:08

expect that from Fernando Alonzo of

15:10

all drivers and I'm not going

15:12

to throw it out just yet

15:15

but of course he is the

15:17

oldest driver on the grid. He

15:19

is fighting science and nature as

15:21

the week's pass. Tommy is getting

15:24

too old. He's probably just dreaming

15:26

of driving that old 2005 Renno

15:28

and thought it was a lot

15:30

of a smaller car than a

15:33

car and dipped a wheel. I

15:35

think it's just, until we kind

15:37

of see it in the race

15:39

where he makes an error, it's

15:42

a load of rubbish. Yes, he

15:44

spun off. It doesn't look great.

15:46

But his kind of season has

15:48

been so overexaturated with, oh, he's

15:51

absolutely washed, you know, he's been

15:53

ahead of stroll. when he's retired

15:55

in both the races. one less

15:57

so his his kind of error

16:00

and one definitely not his error

16:02

with just to come mechanical failure

16:04

you know it was quicker than

16:06

stroll in both sessions so sounds

16:09

like a lot of copium over

16:11

there to i just think it's

16:13

absolutely ridiculous to be like people

16:15

are just you know he's he's

16:18

spun off in a free practice

16:20

session and suddenly he's you know

16:22

43 and he's go to the

16:24

retirement home like no just no

16:27

No, I know. I'm only poking

16:29

fun when I say he's too

16:31

old. I know you're only guessing,

16:33

but people do genuinely believe it

16:36

and that is a later revision.

16:38

Yeah, let's, let's assess going into

16:40

qualifying in the race where it

16:42

really matters when Finland Olonzo out

16:44

qualifies Lounstrol and is running in

16:47

the points, then his engine blows

16:49

up or something. But, but they're

16:51

kind of jumping on the fact

16:53

that, you know. Until Lance Stroll

16:56

is just out qualifying Alonzo and

16:58

beating him every single weekend, then

17:00

I will, I say happily, unhappily

17:02

admit that maybe his time has

17:05

passed, but until then he's not

17:07

the case. Yeah, Stroll out scores

17:09

him this season, even with these

17:11

moments of unluckyness and whatnot, then

is almost unbelievable. Yeah, it's

lose. And even better bonus

17:37

bets can be used on the

spread, totals, and player props.

17:42

There you have it. Bet $5

17:44

to get $150 in bonus

17:46

17:48

see why, it's never ordinary at

18:25

Are grass fires common

18:27

enough that they should

18:29

try to do something

18:31

to prevent them on dry circuits?

18:34

Well, this is the second time

18:36

I believe, the first being China

18:38

last year where they had a

18:40

little grass fire. This one was

18:43

definitely more visually shocking,

18:45

especially the second grass

18:47

fire that was spreading

18:49

quite drastically. They used, and

18:51

this is from what Sky said, a

18:53

chemical last year to try and combat

18:56

the problems of the floor rubbing against

18:58

the track and therefore causing sparks, and

19:00

then with it being windy as well,

19:02

it would then push the sparks onto

19:04

the grass and of course cause fires.

19:07

So they're going to have to do

19:09

something for sure, otherwise... we could get

19:11

red flags in the race, we could

19:13

get red flags in qualifying tomorrow and

19:16

that's not what we want. Drivers are

19:18

struggling out there enough as it is,

19:20

let alone having grass fires as well.

19:22

So yeah, they'll be working hard, the

19:24

FIA, Formula One, they'll come up with

19:26

a solution to this, I'm sure, they're not

19:28

just going to leave it and go, well,

19:31

hopefully tomorrow it's better, or Sunday of course

19:33

there's going to be a bit of rain

19:35

which will help in the morning, whether that

19:37

will then translate into a translate into a

19:40

race session. we will wait and see but

19:42

they will they'll figure out. They will figure

19:44

it out and it always seems to happen you

19:46

know it happened in China in a

19:48

practice session and it's better that it happens

19:50

in a practice session than halfway through

19:52

the Grand Prix and then they go oh

19:55

no we've not prepared for this and then

19:57

it keeps happening because can you imagine this

19:59

happening? during the race when

20:01

they're not prepared for it and

20:04

then it keeps happening every 20

20:06

minutes or something. So that's kind

20:09

of, they can consider themselves lucky

20:11

really that it's happened in practice

20:13

and they can probably do something

20:16

about it. Absolutely. Next question, James

20:18

BCFCF1. So when is Maxa Stapp

20:21

and getting promoted to V-Carp? Well,

20:23

as we're into free practice too,

20:25

let's just read up the top

20:28

five. Pia Street, Norris, Hadjar, Hamilton

20:30

Lawson, Vstappen was in 8th, Sonoda

20:33

in 18th, as we sort of

20:35

touched upon earlier. Sonoda didn't do

20:37

a soft tire run. Don't know

20:40

why. Don't know why they decided

20:42

to just leave him on a

20:44

two and a half second, a

20:47

lap slower time. I would have

20:49

loved to have seen a soft

20:52

tire run from Yuki. But it's...

20:54

rather concerning if you're your red

20:56

bull and Did I expect the

20:59

racing balls to be that high

21:01

up? Absolutely not It's I can't

21:04

see it happening from so many

21:06

even just from a PR perspective

21:08

from Red Bull. Like if they

21:11

genuinely even, they can't do that.

21:13

They just can't. It just would

21:16

not work as much as we

21:18

joke about it. I cannot see

21:20

a world unless racing bulls are

21:23

quite literally half a second a

21:25

lap cleared down the road where

21:27

this happens. It's close. It's a

21:30

tenth between Vastapen and then Lawson

21:32

Hadjar ahead. It's not complete panic

21:35

stations at the moment. But racing

21:37

balls have got a pretty decent

21:39

package by the looks of things.

21:42

They've got a very, very decent

21:44

package. I mean, Hadjar was what,

21:47

two tenths off the stappen in

21:49

qualifying for the Chinese Grand Prix.

21:51

We've now gone into another track

21:54

where, yeah, you need a lot

21:56

of down force and the Red

21:59

Bull is clearly... struggling, we saw

22:01

Vistapin, I think, at the end

22:03

of the session, just fighting the

22:05

car like he was on a

22:08

wet track, almost. It was quite

22:10

insane to watch. And I don't

22:12

think, you know, it would be

22:14

absolutely ludicrous in all the crazy

22:17

decisions that Red Bull have

22:19

done, that this one would be

22:21

the most ridiculous of them all.

22:23

I don't see any way it

22:25

could, or could ever happen. They've

22:28

of course have that luxury

22:30

that they've got two teams,

22:32

but it would just be so

22:34

embarrassing. They need to sort

22:37

their problems out there

22:39

because it does not look great

22:41

at all. I think that is more

22:43

of a kick in the face, the fact

22:45

that, yes, Red Bull are nowhere

22:48

near what they were last year,

22:50

but even more of a kick

22:52

in the face that the V-carb is.

22:55

seemingly so quick and looks

22:57

so good and of course you

23:00

know that that team based in

23:02

Italy don't have the same

23:04

kind of budgets and stuff yes

23:06

they have a lot of the

23:08

you know what they can learn from

23:11

each other legally but it's

23:13

not it's not a good look

23:15

for a red ball at all

23:17

and and racing balls look rapid.

23:19

I know it's only practice

23:21

but they really do look very

23:24

quick. So for those of you

23:26

wondering, as much as we say,

23:28

I don't think it's going to

23:30

happen, Max surely isn't going to

23:32

go to racing bulls if they

23:35

generally are quicker. They can make

23:37

that switch. There's nothing to stop

23:39

them from doing that. We've seen

23:41

it with Lawson and Sonoda. Max

23:43

could... Oh God, that would... Can

23:45

you imagine the controversy

23:47

though? Yeah. Because realistically,

23:50

you think how much controversy...

23:52

Daniel Ricardo doing a fastest lap

23:54

to take it off Norris at the

23:56

end of last year was in the

23:58

sister team. Can you imagine? if they

24:00

put Max in that V-carb while it's

24:02

really quick and he does a really

24:04

good job and then they switch him

24:07

back as soon as they sort their

24:09

car troubles out that would I know

24:11

it's so unlikely to happen but imagine

24:13

the controversy about it that would open

24:15

up a whole new level of this

24:17

kind of should a company have two

24:20

teams in formula one that would open

24:22

up a whole new thing that we

24:24

never possibly could have expected. Can you

24:26

imagine like going into a race weekend

24:28

so which team is Max gonna drive

24:30

for? That's one of our predictions for

24:33

the race weekend coming up. There's nothing

24:35

to stop them doing it even after

24:37

a practice session right? I would not

24:39

be surprised. There's part of me that's

24:41

like would it or wouldn't it where

24:43

Max goes just put me in put

24:46

me in for FP1. Let me let

24:48

me have a let me have a

24:50

taste of this. Let me see... what

24:52

this racing ball is saying. I'm surprised

24:54

he's not... I'd get him to Faienza

24:56

and get on the sim and have

24:59

a go and see if you see

25:01

what his lap times are compared to

25:03

the others because he might be like

25:05

whoa guys you have a championship winning

25:07

car can I have it please? I

25:09

would be surprised if he hasn't already

25:12

had a go to be honest. It

25:14

is Max he loves his simulators anyway.

25:16

I'm sure he's very interested to know

25:18

what that racing balls has to offer.

25:20

But then, you know, as much as

25:22

we joke and we say, how could

25:25

he go to the racing balls, etc.,

25:27

etc., etc. If Max then jumps out

25:29

of that red ball, it's basically just

25:31

signing, sealing and delivering a very poor

25:33

season for that car over at Red

25:35

Ball, just purely because they need Max

25:37

to help develop it. And if he

25:40

jogs on to the other team... they're

25:42

just going to go back and it's

25:44

already developed in his direction as well

25:46

for them for them to then for

25:48

him then to ditch it and go

25:50

I like this car but now it's

25:53

gone a bit too far good luck

25:55

Yuki and Liam oh exactly and and

25:57

if I mean would just living in

25:59

a dream world right now, but then

26:01

if Max goes to V-Carb, did they

26:03

then rebrand back to Red Bull? So

26:06

the V-Carb is Red Bull racing again

26:08

and they just take the... Oh God,

26:10

I mean that would be a world

26:12

that literally would not exist, but it's

26:14

quite fun to think about all the

26:16

same. Let's now also touch upon the

26:19

fact that it was a McLaren One

26:21

Two, Piastri ahead of Norris, they were

26:23

going... a lot quicker than what those 28

26:25

ones suggest as well. I do wonder

26:27

if they were using their tires at

26:29

a different point in the track because

26:31

I think Piastrian Norris were both about

26:33

three tenths up or at least Lando

26:35

was three tenths up through the middle

26:37

sector ended up not improving or at

26:39

least not beating Piastri at the end

26:41

in this final sector. It's it's

26:44

close to what you were predicting Tommy

26:46

coming into this of course You know

26:48

you you said half a second clear

26:51

of the rest of the pack I

26:53

am not convinced that Hadjar is genuinely

26:55

the third fastest car out there Because

26:58

look for I haven't shown their hand

27:00

they they are low low low power

27:02

engine modes from what I've been told

27:05

by my delusional brain But McLaren do

27:07

look genuinely unstoppable but they have to

27:09

deliver and that's something that's

27:11

something that consistently

27:14

over a 24 race season, they need to

27:16

do for the first time. And... Sure

27:18

do. Oscar looked like he was a

27:20

little bit further back than Lando, but

27:22

then put that lap in at the

27:24

end. I'd love to see a half

27:26

a tenth separate the two of them at

27:29

the front, but they do generally have

27:31

the best package at the moment.

27:33

So shout out to Lights Out blog

27:35

who combined this of basically the

27:38

perfect sectors that they did

27:40

through... through everything to show like

27:42

an ideal lap from the

27:44

practice sessions. Norris would be

27:47

first, pastry three tenths off

27:49

and then LeCler in third, six

27:51

and a half tenths off. Yeah,

27:53

relaxed. That McLaren looks very

27:55

good, but as we know, it's

27:58

just the driver line up. I'm not

28:00

sure. But they have a handful

28:02

of tents in the locker to

28:04

have an army on you. But

28:06

yeah, I think that with the

28:09

sectors, I am convinced that they

28:11

were just using their tires in

28:13

a different part of the track,

28:15

whether those optimal sectors is actually

28:17

something that they can deliver on.

28:19

I'm not sure. But they have

28:21

a handful of tents in the

28:23

locker to play with. And that

28:26

is it. That is our Friday

28:28

wrap-up done and dusted. We will

28:30

see you tomorrow where we will

28:32

be live on YouTube and Twitch,

28:34

as always, to stream qualifying. I'll

28:36

watch along over on there. Come

28:38

and join us if you haven't

28:40

before. Tommy, what are your final

28:43

thoughts? Bring on qualifying. Is that

28:45

three words? No, because Suzuki is

28:47

just a bang in track for

28:49

qualifying. It's so high speed, watching

28:51

Formula One cars. It's not the

28:53

best. track for overtaking and in

28:55

the race but qualifying is just

28:57

mega so can't wait for it.

29:00

God you love a quality but

29:02

can't overtake race don't yes it's

29:04

monocone me up but yeah it

29:06

is awesome looking forward to that

29:08

7am UK time and we'll be

29:10

live about half an hour prior

29:12

to qualifying starting and we will

29:14

see very soon plus love take

29:17

care bye All of our chores.

29:19

Go get some medicine, apparently. Go

29:21

29:23

29:27

Tommy? Some cow pole. Cold and

29:29

flute tablets, I'm on. The main

29:31
