#f1news #formula1 #hamilton #verstappen #russell #cameronf1 #redbull #ferrari

again once again in the weird and wacky world that is Formula 1 the Premier Motorsports formula in all of the world oh the humanity Where Do We Begin well of course we got to begin at the festival of speed cuz all of the F1 world are there today tomorrow the weekend maximan verstappen will be the first F1 reigning F1 world champion to go up the Goodwood Festival of speed Hill in some time I wish that was there I’m not even going to lie so two will be David colard Danny Ricardo Christian herner will accompany Adrien newie that is there what’s Adrien newie doing there shouldn’t he be over at Marinello or McLaren or Aon Martin but of course Adrian knew was there to unveil his RB 17 brand new hypercast settings and it looks absolutely incredible however if Adrian new is being paid to develop that car I think we want to evaluate if we are the balls that are red because of a couple different things most notably is that not is that car just not the Aston Martin Valkyrie revamped it looks the same it has the same front end what are we doing here it’s just green is the valkyrie this one is blue have they just painted it differently what are we doing the RB 17 designed by Adrian Nei and Red Bull advanced technology of course built upon 20 years worth of F1 Innovation says Oracle Red Bull Racing Twitter 1,000 brake horsepower and a V10 engine mate I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on that I will tell you guys this much 900 kg to a hyper car that will rev to 15,000 off here either Humanity speaking of Adrien of course we got to talk about this story that’s dropped again for the voidance of Doubt Italian motorsport.com say that no longer are Ferrari in contention there’s been a breakdown of communication Ferrari do not want to get involved in a bidding war and of course as at July 2024 there is going to be a bidding war why I hear you say well because Adrian newie is a Difference Maker as at July 2024 in ground effect era he is the one to get it done he understands intrin physically how much chassis suspension and arrow are linked if indeed you want to win yourself any silverware let alone championships he learned those lessons way back in the day 1980s settings he did his thesis in ground effect car there shortly thereafter the Laton house March 881 this is Adrien ne’s bag he knows more than anybody could because he’s put his 10,000 hours worth of deliberate practice in as far as the field of ground effect cars are concerned what are we doing here uh go Messa stroll and Zack Brown will fight it out to get his signature Ferrari no longer want to be in this bidding war and for good reason I would intimate I would you know what I would I would see you that and I would raise you this as far as Ferrari no longer being in the race for 1 a Jor here’s why I think they understand that Adrian’s heart has never been in Ferrari for a couple of different reasons he likes he’s a home body he likes to stay in the UK right when he travels he goes to South Africa that’s his home away from home that aside Adrian Nei is and always will be a homebody fundamentally and again he argues in his book how to build a car that on several occasions previous relationships in his life not least of which his previous his previous spouse previous partner from whom he’d been divorced that those relationships have been sacrificed by him as he traveled around the world with a view to pursue his Motorsport Ambitions he’s 65 now he’s happily married why would he want to open that book again he won’t want to stay at home chap if indeed you have the options as he does in McLaren and Aston Martin stay home trap explore your options per Clarkson find yourself a cheeky house in Oxbridge or wherever it makes sense doesn’t it if you are Adrien newie a go the candidates most likely to gain Adrien newi signature the goest F1 AO mind that’s ever AED they of course are McLaren the papaya colored car and so to the green machine of Aston Martin Lawrence straw for the avoidance of Doubt has said that he plans to build himself a tech super team already he has hide himself Andy Cowell enrio card will be there shortly thereafter is is the final piece of that super tech team jigsa puzzle not Adrien Nei they’ve they’ve given him the exclusive Factory treatment exactly what they gave Andy Cal previous launch draw has said to any body who wanted to listen you put a microphone in his face that when he gets passionate about something as he is about F1 he wins hence he’s injected 250 million worth of capital investment by way of that factory the wind tunnel will come online at Aston Martin next year he’s serious about this Fernando Alonzo threw the book at him write your own check chap the missing piece in that jigsaw puzzle therefore as far as ask the Martin is concerned is Adrian neie oh the humanity but you could make the same argument from a Zack Brown perspective could you not that the missing piece in that jigsaw puzzle could be one Adrien newi a proper aerodynamic mind who will look to hire on a Consulting basis work from home settings again this isn’t it’s not necessary at this stage not where not where McLaren are as far as their development curve it’s not necessary for Adrien neie to go and build the car by hand he’s not there anymore he’s a super consultant work from home settings right the ship settings that’s what Zack Brown and to Len stroll will require from him but from a McLaren’s perspective if Adrien you is a relationship man he Harbors Good Rapport Fosters Good Rapport even with Zack Brown they travel together take the same charted private jet together they share similar interest classic cars The Monaco classic as an example they raced together Rob Marshall is already at McLaren man who Adrian knew we first hired to Red Bull so what are we doing here he’s going to get techie and again listen critical information that I’m missing out he Eddie Jordan Freudian slip at the Yacht session that they um that they held where they pitched questions or fielded questions even you remember the Edie Eddie Jordan let slip didn’t he he said something to this effect when we get the next contract from Zach or whoever what do you mean from Zach or whoever that means to me that McLaren are a front and center other the humanity it’s going to get techy September we will find out for sure because owing to non-compete Clause NE needs to see out his sabbatical SL SC did he leave and can’t announce a joining to another team before then the world watches until September right Toto wolf what’s he saying well he’s come out and said all of a sudden it’s clicked hasn’t he Hamilton’s first title winning was base he’s not bad that Adrian knew he fell visual I tell you that much he’s all right most winningest winningest AO chap ever what’s y on now 13 drivers 12 Constructors or vice versa I can never remember the which way around it is so multitudinous are his accolades get him he he’s Adrien n for the avoidance of that is the type of guy that you just give a contract to and a pen and allow him to write his number he’s that fundamental and again it’s still ground effect era but it won’t be so for long 2026 new regulations and I’ve said a gazillion a gazillion times at this point if there is one man who I would want to lead a an F1 team into a brand new set of rules rules and regulations completely new specification and adapt a car and an outfit to that rule set and specification and that man has a name and his name is Adrien newie oh and by the way Toto wolf what’s going on who here got some things to say right he thinks Mercedes are back or at least when ask the question if Mercedes as an outfit as a Formula 1 champion eight time Constructors whether they’re back Toto wolf responded well it certainly looks like that on the back of the past couple of race weekends again backto back winners a all of a sudden however hold your horses for a second Toto the boy who cried wolf because I feel like we’ve been here before any fool will tell you who’s ever watched even one F1 race that you can’t judge on one or two races right listen Nick the re looked fantastic on the back of one race but if you’re going to judge these things accurately in Earnest you need a larger sample size lest we forget that at Silverstone the conditions as far as Mercedes and their W5 were favorable cool conditions and again they’re able to switch on their ties leis Hamilton absolutely in his element at his home Grand Prix his favorite track let’s see how they get on next Grand Prix at Hungary as an example one swallow some say does not a summer make I want to see this form continue lest I reserve judgment we’ve been here before haven’t we Brazil 2022 anyone you remember that and then all of a sudden where did that form go to now for me to say that they’re not progressing and traveling in the right direction would be nonsense absolutely they are James Allison said as much as on the beyond the grid podcast where he said finally they’ve realized exactly how dumb they were for how long that it wasn’t so much a Eureka moment they needed to just walk back their understanding of ground effects CA now they know what Adrian y has known since the 1980s that you don’t Silo build a ground effect car it’s all about the symbiosis of suspension and arrow long gone are the times of Mercedes building these component parts in isolation don’t work in silos it’s symbiosis settings if you’re looking to build yourself a successful ground effect car is it not so what are we doing then Mercedes or even what were we doing James Alison said that they couldn’t believe that they’d been so dumb for so long and he’s right and so because of that I as a Mercedes and leis Hamilton fan will Reserve judgment until I see further proof that they they have rounded a corner oh and by the way what’s going on bear I hope you’re good mate o cam Claren this is a Friday stream so we’re going to be going back up we’ll go long today this is the one where we go back and forth and die a tribe and argue there’s nothing like a Friday night stream especially when there’s no football you know what I mean we’re going to have to we will talk what’s Roan say new em Merchants you a ham cultist wanting other drivers to get no credit not crying I have an opinion of you to why are we uh oh Michael says stop crying Cameron Junior can you hear him Andre I’m not pleased with that at all you know I don’t like it when he um when he interferes it’s ever so distracting that you know you want to be professional but you can just hear Cameron junr just going on in the background of course he needs to uh he needs to stop crying Michael that’s who he needs to stop crying um new em Merchants you know I listen I life is too serious sometimes sometimes you’ve got to leverage a bit of poetic license we know what the person means when they say ne Merchants a benefactor of a very good Adrian new car who like anybody that’s driven that car or a car that whose Heritage is an Adrian new car as I think we’re insinuating with sir leis Hamilton I mean yeah of course he was a benefactor but look let’s be honest here I don’t want to like I don’t want to bury my head in the sand as if to say any f One driver who’s ever won a championship didn’t do it in a good car you can’t win a what look F1 is hard we all know that I don’t know why we want to pretend them be Daft F1 is difficult enough as it is to do it without a car is night un impossible name me an F1 Drive in history that’s won an F1 world championship in a car that wasn’t capable doesn’t happen Fernando Alonzo You could argue nearly did it in 2012 potentially nearly but again Clos not no cigar eh close butt no cigar Ian says can you make a car 6 seconds a lap faster to make Lance a winner well this is the issue I was talking to someone earlier and they said they intimated um a cheeky F1 Sider that why would Nei ever want to build a car and have launch stroll drive it almost feels weird right why would you want to uh why would you want why would you want cavat and then coat it in cream so the position of having the best in class with one of the worst in CL although maybe I need to put some respect on lch strolls name cuz he’s not listen he’s not half bad in the wet over the past couple Grand prix’s been outperforming his teammate Fernando appan Alonzo which is no mean feat man from oboor who’s still God here even though he’s like 40 4700 years old like I mean put some respect on lunch stws just a bit do you know what I mean like I don’t know maybe I’m being too hard on L like I don’t know but even with that being said I’m not sure that you would want if you were Adrian new would you really want would you want to work for POA stroll first that’s your first thing and second thing would you want Lance stroll to be driving in your car techy that I’m not sure you need to take on the biggest challenging Motorsport making lots read that already what’s going on McLaren you’re a legend David B banter I know I like I do like I have to lean into the banter sometime since it’s the Friday night stream we have to always why everyone so serious in Fone the sh do we want to talk about the Sha fosy I can’t even say I’ll come to it but we’ll save it for now never ever in life has there been a fan I know you get fundament you get Lis Max fundamentalist but the Sha FIA like as far as like that um the levels of delusion yeah I’ve never seen anything i’ be honest I get partisanship and like supporting a driver or a team or an athlete fiercely with P I understand it but surely you can be introspective and objective just a little bit and understand that sha hasn’t been perfect as good as he is we’ve gone into sha F you I was meant to save it for later um is that next Max or Lis in your ml F1 race you you can guess who his favorite driver is you can guess the Apple doesn’t fall too far from the TR it’s not Lis Hamilton I put it that way but as far as the sh fosy they’re they’re they it’s the it’s proper like god tier levels of delusion I was talking to a sha fan and it came out the Chara’s fan I won’t mention any names but it was said that sha doesn’t make mistakes what what have we did unbelievable instantly I’ve got five that I can just rattle off Brazil 2022 bloody IMA Paul Rickard the same year like there’s a Gaz Monaco is near as makes a difference every year apart from 24 like there were gazillion mistakes that you can just like like he crashes often and frequently Las Vegas turn 12 or whatever it was Sim race Las Vegas like he makes a lot of mistake this isn’t me saying that charl AKA modern day Jona lazy isn’t brilliant at his best like he’s very very good probably the quickest driver point A to point B right like he’s proper god tier settings but to say that and then not say that he doesn’t mes or that he couldn’t be more assertive or that he couldn’t um leverage a semblance of a strategic brain he nonsense you can’t even take that that nonsense seriously not if you me at least and again but on this channel we will never ever sacrifice truth and objectivity the altar of anyone’s partisanship definitely not that of one charlot what are you talking about sha was broken by Ferrari in 2022 I argued this with um shz on the latest Shakedown I think the problem with sha not to say that he can’t overcome adversity because for Pete’s sake like I mean he’s his old man died and he jumped in the car and won that very next race right same thing with um with je like he’s he’s resilience it’s almost like resilience focuses him but what he can’t deal with very well or at least hasn’t done of late adversity in real time when the race gets teeken you’ve got to start to solve for something as happens in Formula 1 or any other Motorsport please see an example Monaco a couple of years ago when the track was drying out do you pit now do you do you try and stay out and manage the con the changeable the difficult conditions and pit later save yourself of pit sters science ended up doing you got to like when he’s going to work his brain in real time and figure something out or when he’s going to when he’s going to mop up for Ferrari’s iniquity strategically and or operationally I think he just feels begrudged a grieved even like a woman scorned he can’t help himself and he allows that to permeate and affect his performance to the down side whereas a Carlos science Jr on the other side of the grid has this ability to a fix for Ferrari’s nonsenses and their their poor lowlevel decision making in real time to question them constructively and challenge back and to drive around the ineptitudes that Ferrari have shown on so many occasion and that’s the difference if if you were to do a gap analysis a cheeky waterfall if I put on my accounting cap for a second the only reason why Carlos scien is anywhere near close to charlot Clair is because of that because nobody can tell me that Chara clir isn’t faster than Carlos s Jr in terms of absolute Pace that’s another nonsense argument that that argument is as nonsensical as the charl doesn’t make mistakes once so again as an F1 mind a very nauy F1 mind all I’m trying to understand is how caros SS because he’s so much slower nine times out of 10 than charlot CLA is able to challenge so often it doesn’t make sense if not for that explain car Carlos SS Jr is doing some very clever things in real time in the leveraging his race IQ race Savvy devilment um being a bit street smart as well right like he’s a brilliant M go back and listen to the new project podcast with Carlos s Jr he is levels like he’s wear so it’s in Spanish so you’ll need the subtitles potentially but he’s just like his way of articulating and describing being F1 and the circumstances that he’s got a Sol for in real time and and even if you listen to him feeding back to Ferrari the he’s just very particular on the words that he’s choosing he’s succinct and concise in equal measure he’s just the different he’s just the different level racing mind one that Charlotte CLA has a lot to learn from to be honest I think it’s it’s a shame in that sense not e can’t learn stuff from Lewis absolutely but the one thing that Sha’s lacking sha doesn’t need to learn speed from LS cuz he’s quick enough already what he needs to learn is the assertiveness and the constructive push back and the race IQ of a Carlos science Jr so in a sense in one sense it’s quite it’s it’s a travesty that Carlos science is leaving that team because you’d ideally want for Char lir to continue learning from the Spaniard man from Madrid they thought Chara was the next shoeer but to me he’s nothing more than a A or G hardberger convinced me otherwise from boys Matthew as disparaging it is you hear me say very tongue and cheek that I I refer to him as modern day Jonah laaz but he reminds me of him I mean they look they their face like I mean I think they look very I think they look very similar at least and their trait shaa La was rapid super quick but could never really get anything done right by virtue of his mistak SL bad luck likey there are parallels between these two drivers it is what it is Manny says I’m very impressed with he’s all right Carlos is how can he be so close to charl clir and he’s and he raced one less race okay so charl clir has there’s been bad luck in there and de like there is other stuff you’ve got to tell the whole story right the whole truth and nothing but the truth it hasn’t all been charir just being nody and crashing that’s not that wouldn’t be that would be a false narrative for me to put out there but has there charl lir mistakes has he driven erratically sometimes of course he has you saw him like what was he doing to Lando Norris a couple races back if not just uh expressing his frustration you don’t do that Char what are we doing I’ll say charlot is a passionate driver but that may be a weakness other drivers can exploit he’s a very likable chat but could fold under the Mind Games of one sir leis Hamilton you know what McLaren am I going I’m talking out of both sides of my mouth here because I just I hear what you’re saying but it isn’t M he’s not weak in the face of M I don’t think L’s Mind Games will call charl an issue Chara struggles when like I I just think mentally when when a team start and this is tough anyway right even when I’m at work if somebody makes a mistake and I have to go and do some extra work because I don’t like that I hate that if I’m de detriment because of something that somebody else did on a team that cheeses me right off like I have charir in me if I’m honest like that same that same gene but Chara L Clair is an F1 driver one of the best potentially that we’ve ever seen one of the quickest most definitely and so my point the Salient point the pertinent one going forward if he if he’s going to if he’s going to become who we all think and hope that he becomes in future then these are points that he’s got to with being not necessarily the ability to handle mind games I don’t think that’s it being the mistakes the material ones of Consequence the frequency of those mistakes being able to lead the team and and drive around their mistakes if indeed they keep making them as it looks like scaria Ferrari potentially are not allowing their mistakes to affect your performance to the downside and I because I think genuinely at this stage I think that’s been Charles that’s been that’s been in his that’s been his Achilles here nobody wants to see that again people oh stop hating sh you’ve got agender against agender against sha for what why agender against sha what is this nonsense that agenda for agenda against Char for the from the Char fosy perspective just means we disagree and I don’t like your points because I like Char yeah he looks like Clark Kenton whatever like I don’t care a champion is what he looks like but F1 is not a cartoon or a film it’s not a fairy tale need more stuff you need to be like do you know what I mean all of the F4 mention that I’m talk talking about you got to be like your shoulders have to be Broad in real time and I contrary to what people said like I want this for sure what do you mean a Char Clair who’s had his weer bics in the morning and has all of these things that I’m talking about not making mistakes and like who doesn’t want to see that chap I want to see that chap turn up every what do you mean everyone is a better place for that what do you mean nonsense looks like she’ll give you plus one one points per race due to the bias towards looks enough enough yaser I’m telling you this is a real thing somebody somebody was talking about a boxer once and they said something I thought it was quite pertinent that he looks like a champion what does that even mean what does a champion look like you know what he means though right sh does look like a champion he looks like he he looks like the champions from the movies and I think that’s why so much so many people are in love with him he he just has that Championship look doesn’t he but again then what does that count for you can’t get like yasa says that you can’t get 25 points because you look like a champion development and progression isn’t linear I still have hopes for Char says Lee me too leag listen I’d love nothing more than to see charlot Clair make a mug of me from the next race I would even like if he just was perfect and do you know what I mean challenge the team when they needed challenging and I would love that I think Char and Lewis both have similar weaknesses when it comes to strategy I would not disagree visual which will continue to expose Ferrari’s poor strategy even with the changes I think this is why Carlos s junor is good for Ferrari CU he just has that thing whatever it is that racecraft the the constructive challenge which they need the ability to think through their nonsense and cut through the Strategic tra chaff Char has that in abundance doesn’t he George had to be mentally strong to endure those years at Williams I don’t doubt that for a second visual I think I think George is mentally strong but not a this similar Theory right he’s got different foibles and again I suppose always towards the end of the race and there’s something cat state for George he’s liable to make a mistake as well so different but similar to to sh Char’s probably much quicker than George maybe depending on who you talk to um Charles’s Modern Day LA he says sorry mate it’s a brilliant analogy and I can’t take credit for that by the way there’s a he mind be mentioning Josh Revel I was talking to and he was like mate Char just reminds me of uh Jord not saying passion in the things we do is a bad trait I’m self-employed in manufacturing I kick myself in for making mistakes but I think an F1 driver needs a Killer Instinct Lewis absolutely Lewis does have Killer Instinct Lewis does definitely have killing de Joo what’s going on my guy do a favor hit the like yeah we’re going like this is the Friday night streaming we got to go back and I will talk to Carlos science Jr actually because there’s a really good article on the race I want to say the race.com and they’ve talked about they’ve challenged Red Bull to basically grow a pair if indeed they have a second driver problem in czecho Perez then there is a soul for that problem though one that’s accessible available reliable consistent dependent God lineage Heritage and that driver has a name Red Bull czecho perz his name is car Lo sence Jr sub him off the bench get him in there but Red Bull will say they don’t want the issues they don’t want the harassment they don’t want another another daddy F1 in car lost science senior in the car how would SCI senior get on with yos for stappen how would you manage for that again they already had conflict back in 20156 at T Roso didn’t they where Marco Maru wanted them to act in a way that benefited Max fappen no longer reporting to France do and you can’t blame Christian Herer for not wanting repeat those mistakes of Christmas Past it’s a difficult one to how do you manage SS and the stappen it’s tough right maybe it’s best to avoid it completely however when your backs up against the war and your second driver in czecho Perez is potentially jeopardizing what should be a slam dunk of a constructor’s championship when he’s been roundly out qualified three times by Logan sergeant in a Williams for Pete sake this SE season Alone six time Logan in Logan Sergeant’s career to date when he scored when he’s been outscored over the past two races by Nico hulkenberg as far as his points that he’s scored in the last six what are we doing when he can’t even get out of qual one not qual 2 not qual 2 and not not an an anomalous circumstance now almost as a as a pbit every single time it’s q1 I’m just fearing for czecho perz when all these things are happening in tandem concurrently and frequently surely then if Carlos s Jr is available then sign him Am I Wrong Am I am I being am I being overs simplistic chat with my character characterization Hamilton’s bad at strategies bloody Nora Cameron really is that where we’re going gr Raz Razer you’re a legend gr63 needs more consistent Machinery to fight at the front right now a lot of his end of race battles bottles wow Freudian love that could be summed up as taking hirist to salvage the breadcrumbs of a top five Podium position you know what Razer here’s what I’ll say on Georgia I I I think sometimes sometimes there’s a time to be ER Center here’s what I mean by that sometimes there a time to have a win it or bin it attitude there is a time to have that t i Abu Dhabi 21 as an example the last couple of laps what have you got to lose if you Lis Hamilton you finish second what’s the point win it or B it isn’t appropriate Again Sports at etiquette not withstanding that would be a time as an example to have a is appropo there in to have a win or binit approach but George Russell’s only got one gear he’s almost like especially in the latter stages of the race he’s always win it or been it right Singapore Australia the non break test with Alonzo and he’s got to he’s just got to be um circumstance appropriate I think it’s not bottling necessarily Raz I wouldn’t I think you’ll be unfair in he’s in characterizing it as that but he does um he desperately wants to beat Lewis each and every single time doesn’t he that’s the first thing and second thing I think he’s win it or B it attitude is not applicable for many of the circumstances that he finds himself in particularly towards the L if he’s going to be a champion again if he’s doing the Gap analysis as I’d expect to charlot Clair AKA modern day joura lazy to do then George’s is one of being more adaptable some say that it’s not the strongest of the species that survived but the most adaptable to change and that might be George’s Achilles here what were we saying about lson strategy I don’t think L I’ll be honest with you I think L does get a a bit of a bad rap as far as his racing in brain I think he reads the race in real time maybe not like a caros s Jr but then I mean does he need to read like the strategy in real like he hasn’t needed to write over the course of his seven championships he’s had a car quick enough and he’s been quick enough in that car to uh to mitigate for his not his inability to read theace but uh but that that’s not necessarily his strength as compared with a caros s Jr or a Fernando Alonzo to says hey Cameron off topic question could you tell us the story of how you got in touch and and eventually collab with petd WIS I love the content YouTube produce mate I I I could tell you but we have to have words afterwards now you know what I’m not even sure I can remember to be fair I like everyone else right who’s ever watched an F1 race I’ve always been a fan of Peter wiso’s work I think Peter wiso’s gift for me if I’ll give him some props is he’s a rare combination Peter is as far as his breadth and depth of F1 knowledge combined with that ability to tell the story in a way that’s engaging far too many times I see F1 people who were like Brilliant Minds like got like Peter wins a level of like knowledge and experience but when they tell F1 stories it makes me want to go to sleep just not engaging I feel like this is a very rarified air that Peter Windsor Bree as far as being a broadcaster and analyst you just don’t find for me at least my subjectivity my two pence you don’t find that level of expertise paired in that that entertaining way of of putting forth an F1 thesis or telling us stories and examp sometimes I’m talking with Windsor Mr Windsor what are you talking about come put some respect on his name sometimes I’m talking and I’m we’re we’re on a like the f1r or whatever and I’ll get into his bag about Jim Clark or there’s a story that he told that was brilliant about how like it was at maau with Senna and Senna was the esops favor of the story was that Senna Senna was super detailed in his feedback and when he was uh maining the Contours of the maau like and when he was talking mate I just I before I was watching I was on a zoom with Windsor like Dy and I thought that I was watching a Peter The Windsor Street like I’d lost myself when when it was time for me to talk again after Peter had finished I was like I was gone cuz I was so into the story right and that’s that’s Peter’s very very rare Talent it just doesn’t I I just don’t I don’t think there were too many other people in the space who can combine that level of knowledge and that level of um deep learning almost as far as f1’s concerned with that that entertaining an engaging mode of articulation as a word Smith as well there are very many feathers in his cap but I can’t remember this thought I genuinely I I’d probably tell you but they’re not too far gone now um I think George’s concentration makes mistakes are because he gets used he he’s used to getting overtaken so he’s not used to having someone in front of him whilst making his adjustments he’s a weakness of him being Miss Saturday but that was Alonzo I don’t think that’s it though nine times out of 10 Singapore he wasn’t making adjustments just chasing wasn’t he techy L has always had a Mercedes engine is he an engine Merchant um not always had a good Mercedes engine though 2009 from memory wasn’t a good year for McLaren in fact you could argue 2009 to 2012 13 when Lewis left that McLaren didn’t that McLaren wasn’t good let’s be honest I don’t know where this Vision his history comes from I remember there were some real dog years 2009 wasn’t a good year for McLaren leis didn’t have himself a car capable of winning Championship yeah they were they were incredible in 2007 20 2008 but 9 10 11 12 I don’t know 12 maybe but I don’t know Cameron problem for LS has always been when circumstances made things equal suddenly he had to think for himself and that usually meant he didn’t win the racing that weekend I think that’s harsh Jay um when circumstances me I suppose to your point Jay to like enhance what you’re saying there’s the famous one where you should have pit and he didn’t pit and he was the last you know what I mean I can’t remember was it hungry I think it was hungry when he was uh he was the only one to restart the race on the grid that’s a famous one and back who you could argue Jay is um another drop Dr Windsor yeah he’s he’s a legend isn’t he um I think that’s a bit harsh though Jay I hear you and there’s probably more exhibits that underline your points more than underscore it but I don’t know I had it’s tough CH says yeah love P you’ve got to love windso he’s he’s not bad if I all my job based on his suggestion Peter I will insist to get him back and find this guy says bear like X yeah give me more bear like um Mercedes and engine hasn’t always been good for Louis 2009 yeah it was do drums wasn’t it La Thor 09 they were nowhere as well mlar George looked looked very swaave at wimon and glad-handed one Mr Nee the tinet conspiracies yeah I’m not reading too much into that particular on the news the news what you want to pay attention to today as far as a new is this forari gon and normally the Italian pressing media have a handle on all this stuff that’s going on with cuz their contacts are quite they’re quite close with Ferrari I think they get leak the information nine times out of 10 unless it’s propaganda that Ferrari are looking to throw everybody el else off the C but I don’t think it matters at this stage like ason and McLaren are going to try and fight for new regardless of the information that no way that Zack Brown or L stroll is going to read that motorsport.com ital are going say well Ferrari aren’t interested so let’s take our foot after no chance so think that I I’m guessing I have no way verifying 100% but I’m guessing that article at motorsport.com Italy around Ferrari falling out of love with the Adrian new signature I’m guessing that he accurate chat I’ll be honest with you I’m necessarily talking about it Mexico races those Heights suddenly made Mercedes not the top performer so then to win Mercedes needed a strategy and Lewis as well it didn’t work I think it’s both of them listen same thing with Shaw right every time I talk about Shaw I’ve got to talk especially this season I think some of the mistakes in yester year Paul ricard’s got to take there were mistakes there that he’s got to own and take some responsibility for but charl L Clair’s story this season it’s it’s been um you can’t tell the story of his mistakes without talking about the team I don’t want to be too one-sided in this again got to talk the truth the truth that we will never ever sacrifice at the altar of subjectivity or agenda sha FY despite whatever you want to say agenda means I disagree and I don’t like what you’ve got to say not withstanding the fact that I can’t subvert it with evidence agenda what agenda charl I don’t even know the chap just judging it on what I see in real time and the evidence with which I’m being presented but to Charla Clair’s favor to his credit it’s not just him dropping it’s not like he’s got a perfect circumstance that the car is exactly what he wants that the upgrades coming it’s now then the drive abilities on a different level there are issues with the car and there are issues with the team the issue that sha has to take some accountability for is that he’s not very good or not at least as good at driving around those problems as is his teammate Carlos s Jr and in that sense he’ll always compare unfavorably against Carlos man from Madrid we spoke last night I posted a question about what team to work for given um in Tech data oh the the AI question was that the AI question bear just just Reach Out honestly just Reach Out bear if you if you desperately look there are guys and girls that you can reach out to in the community reach out to a break who’s always been in round and he’s a really really good reach out to Peter if you really really desperately want it per Christian horer just don’t let anything just just keep plowing at it like send emails upon emails out broaden your network um and don’t let anybody tell you that you can’t do it like you can absolutely do context is always key Luke 2010 and 12 mlan was quick 09 they started nowhere yeah I I hear you visual can he win a multitude of races next season says Lucas talking about sha there Lucas sha can do anything he want look let me be clear in what I’m saying in his final form charl is a very difficult man to beat Mark Hugh wrote a brilliant article talking about the way that Charla Clair is able to be the the water to Max forsten’s fire in wheel tohe combat right that in a way that Lando hasn’t even conceived of yet and again if you want to see caseing points you need to look at 2022 Bahrain 2022 Abu Dhabi right sorry 2022 Saudi Arabia 2022 Bahrain the way that sha was a he knows Max for staing intricately if if there’s anyone on that grid currently of the 20 or 19 even that no Max for stappen in wheel tohe combat and can be a a Steven cigal and and use his aggression against in iido settings of course it will be Charlotte Clair Lando no is even close on that scale at all is different Cameron if you had opportunity to ask Louis Hamilton three questions which ones would you ask all the humanity bloody Nora um that’s chaos go on then three questions to Lis quick fire ones I need to go away and like listen to this like think about it marinate on it I’d ask him what he said to his dad or what his dad said to him after Abu Dhabi 21 I’d be always interested to know that um I i’ I’d want to know does he have any regrets not just talking about F1 here I’m talking about his life and then although I know truthful answers though I know his exam answer would be no no regrets whatever I’d want another truth you know what I mean genuine honest Mind’s Eye type truth and then the final one uh I I’d want to know I’d want to know what happened in 2016 i’ I’d want to know that there’s a better way of wording that question what happened in 2016 I’d want to I’d want to know whether he thought there was any Foul Play in 2016 because in 2016 I will be honest with you in real time not so much anymore but sabotage mate that dude’s car broke every single race as near makes no difference those probably been my three without giving it some proper thought pleb have you ogled the new RB 17 looks very nice I I started I I talked about this at the start McLaren um now the RB 17 looks like it looks like a paradigm shift doesn’t it it doesn’t even look like a car it looks like a spaceship and a hovercraft or something however I’m a little bit disappointed in that um it just looks like I I know why it looks like the valkyrie cuz the concept is a road going F1 car right and it needs to have that shape and the Bloody uh like you’re always going to it needs to have those cutouts in the Bonnet so it kind of it is an F1 car of the road you can see and the valkyrie is an F1 car in the road in the same sense that was my only disappointment it kind of looks like it looks like a younger brother of the Aston Martin Valkyrie it’s almost like they you can see their lineage that they’ve been designed by the same man right when it comes to Ferrari I always get a quote from the animated movie Cars Ferrari don’t don’t an don’t need don’t need no strategy mate if they’re going to win they do and if they’ve got Louis and Char in the car then they do they’re going to they’re going to need stuff they they I don’t know regret number one losing Nicole shering well mate are we go I don’t even want to get into a man’s personal life or anything like that of a flipping Nora I know Nicole Nicole was um I did you guys like Nicole for um did you guys like Nicole for not for you come on for Louis though was Nicole a good she wanted kids leis didn’t want kids because he was still traveling around the world can you have kids if you’re an F1 driver every F1 driver that has kids their performance drops off instantly right how can you I don’t know 2016 you yes Cameron that would be my question North band trade F1 greatness and what he wanted all his life for a woman note bloody nor a Northbound I suppose those are the that I’m kind of insinuating that to be honest if you neie helped to build the valkyrie yeah yeah well he what do you mean helped to build it and that was ne’s design um that was new’s design pretty much I think it was because of the his faith in ver M IB collabed with yeah yeah no I no I know is it’s basically design that design that Valkyrie design designed Christian or said damn near bankrupted Aston Martin so expensive was it but it looks the same that was well disappointed I kind of um I’d hoped you know what I mean I’d hoped to see something a bit new and revolutionary but it’s kind of an extension of the same thing um L should have L should have had the kids and got his dad to train them visuals do you think an Antony’s already sacrificed enough you think he wants to go through all that chaos again and he’s all that like you know do that once Anthony Hamilton gave his life for lose what are you talking about properly North band you’re far too kind charlot Clair just needs a good summer break and time away from the car and he’ll come back strong does he though Northbound does he Sid you’re a legend thank you so much we’re trying out here we’re trying unusually loow numbers everybody’s out getting sun or enjoying themselves right nobody wants to list to F1 go on the Northbound and thank you so much you’re you’re far too kind Northbound but go on and let’s address this I don’t I think what you’re saying there there Northbound won’t hurt charl won’t hurt him sometimes you need to get away on a summer break or postseason that’s true and that that will absolutely help charlot cler AKA modern day sh a lazy however it’s bigger than that isn’t it North band I think the question that you’re asking in a roundabout way is what does sh clir need to do to fix for this circumstance I can be I think he can sit I think he needs to get close uh to caros S Jr I think he needs to be more what he can’t do is listen to his fans who tell him that everything’s okay and it will always be okay and you’re the best needs to have a honest conversation with himself and and and do introspection is important again wind talks about this right how many of these drivers actually go when consider trying to improve for their driving style or do they just think well I’ve got to F1 so I must be good enough let me just let me just crack on and continue as I’ve always been doing because this is the girl that brought me to the dance I’m going to dance with her like that that to me is nonsensical as far as your approach and trying to trying to gain or enhance your durable competitive Advantage if you’re Shan he needs to understand his weaknesses and try and have an honest conversation with himself and people around him his team get some Consultants on board just like Nico rosberg did in 2016 and really trying to hone in on the things that he needs to address that will get him over there you know as a sports psychologist this isn’t me you got to take these things seriously right I remember George S Pierre in UFC the best one of the best fighters that I’ve ever seen but there’s a while where he just couldn’t get over the hump he he lost against Matt Hughes when he shouldn’t have and he he was he right charlot Clan needs to get with George S Pierre that’s the that’s the solve he needs to get with another athlete who’s had to overcome for something like charl Clair is facing and George sterre was a brilliant fighter one of the best whoever have done it but there was a while there where he it was almost like he had The Yips there was a hump over which he couldn’t get over and he had to go away he’s a thinker is George and he he he he got very introspective hired a sports psychologist proper and started talking to him with not with a to understand what’s wrong with him but with a view to improve for his performance going forward for his ability to execute in real time when there were fires going off all around him I think it’s these sort of things that could help Charla Clair going forward and I I desperately listen Northbound as much as anybody I want to see sha do well you hear me being tongue and cheek and a bit disparaging in the sake of humor and and being a bit banterous but I I want the best drivers to be as good as they can be and I think that’s why you hear me it would be it’s remiss of me not to say this but it would be a disservice to charlot cler and a driver that I think he can be if I wasn’t so critical been nonsensical um disingenuous even egregious of me to be like yes Charles is doing no Charles is better than what he’s showing and all these Char Foy fans oh no it’s a agenda they’re doing him a disservice and and the driver his uppermost potential ceiling oh no it’s it’s agenda and it’s cut the behave yourself you know what I mean George upped his upped upped his levels don’t don’t to get over the hump Alis the r was a monster when he was a horse hor he was a monster visual a proper big monster um yeah up to his doses do you think so do you think so visual I’m not sure if George was um there is a story that I have to tell about George I don’t think George was dosing I’ll be honest he just trained really really hard every day training there is a sto Vision remind me there is a story to tell about one George S Pierre we went we went raving a couple of times it’s a it’s a mad story McLaren Enzo would love Sha’s passion for the team but you could imagine Enzo in a deck chair on the track side tell him in his failings of course but that’s what needs surely sha needs some not not Matia bonato style not in front of like the public gaze because that will that will hurt him more than it will help him right but behind closed doors sha could do with somebody to just have a come by a with Frederick verer ideally would be that guy to say listen I know we’re dropping the ball but how do we help you going forward that’s what needs to happen it’s that sort of honest open conversation Cameron I’m telling you Char got a dropped the nice Guyer I don’t think that helps Fallon I don’t think that helps him but I’m you can’t I think Sha’s just a nice guy I think he’s asking too much almost to to is he going to become Michael schumacker over I nah I don’t think that’s him you need to hone who he is right develop that rather than change him into somebody that he’s not I think got me thinking about North band’s quest in there do you know what I mean North band North band J obviously yeah he needs to breathe and dig deep to think about where he’s going in his career which would probably mean a season off yeah you can’t take a season off Northbound you don’t you don’t there’s no sabatical in f one because if you take a sabatical everyone else is just it’s too incremental right your progress is cumulative you take the for off the off off the gas in Formula 1 as Alonzo did I suppose Alonzo’s kind have gotten away with it but you’d have to be really good to go away and come back kubitza went away coming back was never like it Kimmy go away come back never the same nine times out of 10 that’s how it works in F1 it’s too cumulative need to just continue growing you need 10,000 deliberate hour deliberate practice hours otherwise you just deemed to and even with all that stuff per caros sence junor might still fail do you know what I mean Lucas what would you say say are your three best memories of Lucy’s career bloody Nora Lucas asking the proper questions 2014 was the 2014 that second Victory I’ve said it a gazillion times and I’ll say again that’s the one that that where I shed tears 2008 the victory Brazil is probably the second one and I’m trying to think probably last weekend you know I’ll be honest of you Silverstone mate and there’s a couple Silverstone 2007 qualifying was something very very special 2006 there’s a couple gp2 races the one where he came from the back was God tier um and then there was another one wasn’t there um there was another gp2 race oh yeah the overtaking maneuver on Pon pson or whatever his name was and PK Jr when I went into when was it cops yeah they went into cops or maggots three deep that was chaos um KUB had the injury yeah KUB did kubitza did have the injury um Alonzo can take us yeah Alonzo is kind of the exception that proves the wall I think he can kind of take us a b pleb says Cameron Le leis Max and Shaw each drive three fing laps one lap in a Merc one lap in a Red Bull and one lap in the Ferrari he would have the lowest cumulative time that is layered mate how do I go about answering that um oh in absolute if it’s one of the it’s Tech this is because you combine in absolute Pace with adaptability aren’t you probably Max probably Max it’s the adaptability thing that I’d I think Max would because Max just gets in gets in the car and goes for True to be fair that that Red Bull shoots his style it’s very on the nose but probably Max would be quickest and then maybe sha and then maybe Lewis sha the only thing that concerns me about sha I think Lewis would adapt quicker to any car than sha I think if sha had the car around him he’ probably beat both of those two probably be quicker interesting injury Northbound the cler following in Danny Rick’s footsteps minus the team oh no Northbound say it’s not so turkey 06 is a good L as gb2 from the back of the field to Second yeah both both epic settings although there was some 202 I’m missing out 2021 entire and that’s not fair is it because there was Brazil 2021 mate there was some 2021 had some very serious L Hamilton drives um Hungary was a bit special wasn’t it there were some very serious leis Hamilton drives in 2021 I will be honest cot even though he didn’t win was levels there’s been a couple in two years I’m picking pastry Oscar pastry I don’t know how he hasn’t won a race yet the racing gods have turned their back on him haven’t they he he’ll win once it’s only a matter of time for Oscar He he’ll be back he’ll he’ll do something had they not bloody sabotaged AKA dropped the ball last race and and affected the double stack he would have been close last race he probably would have won it to be fair they at the speed didn’t they M says true about Char cler the guy the guy had to take out the iPad in Monaco to see how to I know I don’t know I feel about that bear I will be honest I don’t like it but again sometimes you got to do like if you’ve got time and you want to do some due diligence I don’t hate it but um I mean d diligence Before the Race surely that should all be um hardwired Silverstone 20 one off visual are we going there mate mate I don’t I don’t I think it’s too late in the Stream we only got a couple minutes left mate I don’t want to ignite any Everlasting fires piastro is going to be an absolute monster driver in a few years says nor I don’t disagree I’m waiting to see he just needs a bit of good luck and he needs to manage his tight his race pace and although I feel like his race Pace has improved the past couple of races have told you that right they’ve been proved positive is race Pace isn’t shabby or at least not as shabby as it used to be like he’s quick as Oscar he’s like scarily quick and he’s stoic and he’s got a good car underneath him and he’s got a good driver on the opposite side of the garage that he can learn from oh that he’s going to get techie for the rest of them as far as ascar pastri is concern unless we forget this is only a sophomore season isn’t it what do we do like he’s he’s going to be a problem for everybody like everybody he’s got even Lando I still think Lando as out now July 2024 that Lando’s got time in hand and racecraft spare over the Australian but in time considering this is only second season what have we doing here I like czecho but he’s not performing oh my gosh are we closing the stream with some scorched Earth czecho Oscar pastre was 10 seconds faster than everybody else on the fight I know rapid on the mediums so just normalize for the mediums and then you’ll uh you’ll understand how quick he was as versus the rest of the banish czecho to the shadow realm says Northbound bloody have you seen these stats though Northbound like what have we as far as czecho Perez is concerned let me read that go on you guys are are begging me to chime in on czecho and he can he can get it but I like czecho I don’t want to smash him every single time pause I don’t want to but sometimes you have to right like the extent of the underperform perance if mattx goes to Mercedes says Daniel my guess is that Carlos will be the best option for the Bulls that are read I Daniel I don’t I don’t it’s not even he’s already the best option are we going to make an argument that Carlos SS couldn’t do better than czecho Perez is and the sad thing for czecho is that he’s actually working hard at the moment like he’s putting some timing at the scene sounds like he’s in the gym preparing trying to get match fit trying to work through his issues in real time but some times F1 form is like a gasier substance right the more that you try and grab hold of it the more that it kind of like falls out your hand and that’s why czecho Perez is deing at the M like he just can’t just can’t get over that hump I think to be fair czecho pre’s problems are are kind of fundamental and have always been there right loves an underst steer car Loves A Street Track when you don’t have those two circumstance you kind of um his performance can’t fall off a cliff plus the fact that he’s got his contract and maybe his motivations per P to winds are Ricardo portrays in 92 like just you know what I mean give him new contract and what’s his motivation maybe he’s one of those like Czech I like czecho but he’s just not performing and Red Bull have dropped people F I know but you know why that is nbound there were two drivers in that red bull around Peak oil Christian horn allegation gate only one of them backed their team principle unequivocally uniring in a way that helped Christian hor get over that that driver had a name and his name was czecho the Mexican Minister of Defense Perez wasn’t it there was a debt to be paid there was a debt to be be paid pastri problem is Zack Brown been in love with Norris I don’t know you know meline I’m not I hear what you’re saying meline but maybe they are favoring him just a tad I don’t know perhaps Oscar is strateg strategizing quicker than McLaren then again everybody can can it seems I I think I think McLaren needs some battle hardening they need some more deliberate hours practice in the face of of 25 point it’s different isn’t it when you’re Racing for like fourth and fifth you need a different level of competence a different level of uh ability to ex execute as versus when you Racing for 25 points with some serious shots a Max for stopping in a red ball Peter Windsor said it best dur in our last chat right that would they have made those strategic and Pit Stop errors had they been 20 seconds 20 seconds in the lead it’s an interesting argument that I’m not sure they would have like potentially but I’m not sure they would have do you not do you not re do you not reckon because czecho had kids he’s lost two techy I don’t think he’s gained two t0 because of his kids Joo but he spends most of his time on the F1 season away from his family I think does he maybe I’ve misqu don’t quote me on that that might be misquoting Everyone likes everyone wants to be like czecho big checkbook and rocking up driving a faster go on and let’s talk about czecho to close uncomfortable discussion needs to happen regarding C’s performances are simply not good enough czecho R need the subscriptions is oh my God Vis um says North Bank go on then let’s talk about czecho and this is really important czecho Perez the truth is that he has not been performing well can’t get out qualified by Logan sergeant in a Williams Three Time season to date six times over the course of Logan Sergeant’s career for that chap is driving a Williams and you czecho Perez driving yourself a Red Bull mark leading settings that is unacceptable so frequently you can’t not get out of q1 in that car the same car that Max for stepping is driving and again the Nay says the the czecho Perez fans will say of course that there is something to be said pcho Perez having a different car he doesn’t have the same Machinery as Max with staben I will not humor that I think that’s absolute nonsense why especially at this point especially at this point when now the stakes around Red Bull being able to secure the second their third Constructor Championship backto back or fourth even third I can’t even remember it doesn’t matter securing a constructor’s championship again now that that’s at risk nobody’s going to tell me that czecho Perez is being sabotaged because that’s just nonsense it makes zero sense why the F would readed will do that so I can’t engage that nonsense meaningfully but czecho yet and still is underperforming massively isn’t he and he’s just he’s got to sort it out but again I don’t know what to solve is I don’t like to present problems without suggesting solves I I just don’t know what where does he go what does he do I think the solve is Carlos s Jr I will be honest now I know that Carlos doesn’t bring in as much money indeed here’s the here’s the techy thing if we’re playing F1 chess not Checkers czecho sabotage says visual just don’t put lawon in all right so I’m getting on to it Northbound I’m a very long- winded way but I am getting into it as far as the money circumstance here’s what you want to consider if czecho Perez brings in 30 million net including his contract which probably is about I going to say it’s like eight or 9 million so let’s say they pay czecho 9 million and then get in 30 million that’s a net gain each and every single year for Red Bull of 20 million not even accounting for the amount of energy drinks that he sells in Central and Latin America right that that that’s completely discounting those things so again there is a financial upside to having czecho Perez in that car not to mention a mark marketing upside you can send him on red bull runs through North America Central America Latin like do you know what I mean he has that marketing upside absolutely there is an upside to having that chap in a car but from a performance perspective there is a downside if you fit back to the the Finance perspective let’s do a compare and contrast if Carlos SS wants 15 million in a year and he’s going to bring in 5 million a year then that’s a net loss of 10 million right as versus a net gain versus czecho Perez of 20 so that’s massive right you’re losing yourself a net by signing czecho Perez by signing caros science Jr as versus czecho Perez that’s a net loss of 30 million a year can’t sniff at that right you can’t sniff at that but again now you got to start thinking about how much you potentially going to lose from not winning the constructor’s championship if you stasis if you keep it as is and keep czecho Perez in that car and this is where you’ve got to get your calculator out and do some compare and contrast some risk benefit some risk reward counts right cost benefit analysis properly they’ve got to start thinking about the the the opportunity cost of keeping czecho Perez what that looks like from a pnl and balance sheet perspective and what that looks like from a performance perspective because cash rules everything around me cream get the money dollar dollar bills your shout out to Wang F1 is of course the epitome of that many teams have drowned for not being able to continue as a financial going concern and Red Bull have to take that into consideration remember lest we forget this is the cost cap era too every penny counts it’s not just Financial power in Absolution it’s all about efficiency too and with that let’s talk about Liam Lawson very quickly because he was meant to be the next one czecho getting sabotaged a long time ago by Dr Helmer that guy knows how to end somebody’s career oh the humanity he’s not he’s he’s um I hear what you’re saying there Daniel and I don’t necessarily disagree with it um Liam Lawson again the tone has changed right helmet Marco a couple of weeks was saying ago was saying that Liam Lawson is a shoeing we’re a young team we’re a junior team in RB visa cashup and the point of having that team is to ensure that there’s a convey belt that promotes Hot Prospects to the senior team it sounded like Liam noron was an absolute shoeing of course yesterday he had his test a filming there whatever they want to call it on different ties by the way but but the Benchmark against which they were measuring him he fell short of to the tune of 210s they were quote unimpressed by Liam Lawson’s performance and if you doubt that you only want to hear hel M Marco and the new way in which he’s characterizing and talking about Liam Lawson’s prospects of being an F1 driver yester year laterally it was imminently now he’s he’s grouping him up with hajar and lyan talking about whether um maybe Liam Lawson will be ready in two to three years time what over Humanity this is this this is chaos now this is Testament to how much of a shark’s tank F1 can be how quickly things can go from good to bad positive to very negative Liam Lawson is indeed case proof in proof proof a case in point get words out coming you can see it’s been a long week I say all that to say this as far as Liam Lawson and Cheo Perez there’s a really famous quote that I like that Brian scalabrini one time NBA NBA flatsome and Jepson was not a great player in fact one of the worst that we’ve ever seen in the NBA but here’s what scalabrini said I’m closer to L LeBron James than any of you Joe blogs are out there are to me meaning that Joe blog’s NBA player Joe blog’s civilian would never ever dream of being an NBA player and I parlay that to this czecho Perez as disparaging and critical as I’ve been about czecho Perez so to Charla Clair those guys even a Nicholas latifi to make the example pure breed like to crystallize it properly Nicholas latifi is infinitely closer to being a Max V stappen than I ever would be to him this is the truth the F1 drivers currently on the grid are the top 20 drivers in the world no doubt about it so in that sense I want to say this surely then as at July 2024 not withstanding foibles mistakes error prone etle surely it only makes sense for me to put some respect on charlot Clair and czecho Perez’s name czecho Perez particularly being that Liam Lawson was expected to get closer to his Benchmark than he did with a view to prove his way into a Formula 1 seat it hasn’t transpired Ergo czecho Perez formerly known as the Mexican Minister of Defense he has the whip pant prosecution rest no further questions you want to
