Hello everybody.

Welcome to the Fast and the Curious Live.

Oh, can I do the thing the X Factor Man used to do?

Live from London.

It's the Fast and the Curious.

RIDIUM.

Do you want some water after that?

Are you okay?

Do you need to lubricate the very old one?

It was quite husky.

That's very close.

The X Factor has not been on for about 10 years.

And that's the references.

That's one of my newer references as well.

So tonight we'll be mainly talking about Damon Hill.

Yeah, sure.

Well, this is so nice.

Thanks all for coming.

End of your celebration for all of us.

And I'm so thrilled to be here.

Also, thank you so much to Before the Lights

for having us in this wonderful venue.

It is very nice and intimate, isn't it?

They've given us blankets in case people get cold

in this heated building.

So that's nice.

That's lovely.

There's some sofas like in every man's cinema.

Easily like in every man's cinema, isn't it?

Anyway, in case you don't know,

I'm Betty Glover.

Still here, still standing.

This is Christian Hugill.

Oh, right there.

And you might know this man sometimes likes to pop up

on the fast thing.

Yes.

Thanks for joining us today, Greg James.

I'm always lurking.

I'm always listening.

I might not always be on, but I'm always there.

Always there.

I'm always checking up on you.

Yeah.

I think it's been an amazing season.

Can I just say, aren't these two just absolutely amazing?

They really are.

I mean, I genuinely prefer it when I'm not on this.

But I'm just very happy to be here.

But, you know, you two have, you've gone from strength.

This is your appraisal now.

Oh, I get it.

Can we do this in front of the people, are we?

You two have gone from strength to strength.

Thank you.

And you never did, but you definitely don't need me now.

Well, it's so nice to see you.

Is this an action you leave it?

I'd like to say tonight.

I'd like to make tonight about me.

But no, I just think you've had an amazing year

and the aim is always for this to be your show.

And I just think you just, you just boss it

and people love you and it's so cool to see.

And what a great year.

And finally, we had an exciting year.

Oh my God, I was, this is a wig.

I've been tearing my hair up for two years

being like, we've launched in the most boring time

Oh, it's awful.

in the history of this spot.

Oh, the first season.

Oh, give us something.

Explaining it to new fans

where it's like the same person doesn't always bloody well

win every sodding week.

She's amazing sport.

And the same person wins every...

Actually, we should have put those in for BAFTAs,

the acting we did alone.

And those first couple of years

being like, this is their most exciting race

since the last week.

Yeah, yeah.

Those race debriefs, they were tricky.

21 out of 24, didn't he?

Two from Checkel and one from Carlos, wasn't it?

That's it.

Can I, can I bring it back to the now?

Please do.

Yeah, sure.

And Betsy, we really missed you on the final race debrief.

We haven't had your...

We haven't had your hot take.

It's now...

It'll be now lukewarm because it's sort of...

My hot take has cooled down a lot.

Well, you were very hot on the day, weren't you?

Was playing what you were doing?

What was I doing?

Oh, yeah, I mean, no one cares about this.

I do.

I was doing a high rock race.

Those wankers don't know if you've seen it.

So I was one of those...

So marathon for the Instagram community.

By the way, is it...

I really like exercise up until it becomes a cult.

And I'm just...

I'm always a little bit wary about that.

Very cult.

What's going on here?

It feels like sort of exercise for the Stephen Bartlett generation.

Yes, it is.

And just to say, Jimmy, we said cult with an L.

Yeah.

Yeah, not everything, not everything has to be...

Anyway, you were doing it.

I was in Verona and I got stuck in the airport.

The plane was heavily delayed.

So I was sat on the floor at the gate

watching the grand prix of my phone that was buffering.

Can't tell you how horrific it was.

I hope you're using NordVPN.

Wait, because...

Lovely.

The great thing about NordVPN

is they don't sponsor us anymore.

Oh, fuck them.

This shows you...

No, no.

No, I mean...

Gullifers, Gullifers.

People are downloading for Pornhub now anyway.

Yes.

Anyway, for this live show...

Can I just say we'd like them back at some point in the future?

They're excellent.

Excellent VPN.

I'm more of a Gulliver's travel kind of thing.

Yeah.

These booths.

Doing a snoring company at the moment.

We'll sell Ellie.

Oh, shit, we really will.

No.

We've not won a lot of sponsors.

Yeah, we do, actually.

Things still to come tonight.

A live ad read.

But you're glad you came from Leeds for that, aren't you?

Just a live ad read.

So look forward to.

Anyway, what do you think about the race?

We'll talk about that.

You, I want you to tell us.

What do you make of Lando?

Yes.

We've not had your review.

Oh, well, buzzing for Lando.

I think it's really nice how throughout the season

you saw loads of different versions of Lando

and he was just sort of himself

and he was honest about his feelings

and he was struggling

and he talked about that

and it was nice to see a winner that wasn't just,

you know, we expect sports people to be like perfect, don't we?

Like they have this special sort of image

and he wasn't like that

and he still managed to get the job done.

So, respect.

Respect, yeah, for Lando, yeah.

Well, very well put, I thought.

Yeah, very nice.

Very nicely done.

You're good at this.

Really would have been all good if not.

So tonight then, exciting stuff.

Tonight.

So we're going to talk about the predictions

that we made at the start of the season.

Which I've forgotten about.

So this will be news to me as well as to anyone else.

Will be interesting.

We're going to obviously talk about the season.

We're going to debrief it.

We're going to talk about all of the best bits.

But Greg, we've got some amazing guests to join us.

We do.

We've got some incredible guests.

I think we should get one of them out right now.

We're going to do some listener questions, obviously.

We've got some surprises up our sleeve as well.

So many surprises.

I'd like to introduce, I'm nervous about this.

One of our long-serving friends of the podcast.

He is a huge part of the sport, has been for many years.

Once as a driver.

He now designs race circuits.

He is a huge part of the SkyF1 coverage.

Please welcome one of our absolute favorite people on planet Earth.

Karun Chandak.

Was it this?

Hello.

This is news to me.

I thought it was Crofty.

So this is...

The food bill will be smaller.

Lovely.

Is that right? Just gack.

I'm still scarred.

It's been 35 days since your OnlyFans audition video

that you posted on your Instagram.

God, do you bring this all the time?

God, I haven't...

Have you not seen this?

I've got immuted.

I mean, there's a niche.

Kristen, Hugo and Coffee Machine.

Look it up.

There's a niche audience for everyone.

My eyes are still scarred from that.

I did a TikTok trend.

You'll be proud of me.

And it took me three years, but I did one.

And it was that one.

You also did it like a bit wrong as well.

It made it so much better.

Oh, I fucking tried.

Leave me alone.

Honestly, it is an OnlyFans audition video.

I reckon.

It's me.

Yeah, it's the like sugar on your tongue TikTok trend.

Where's Nicola off of social media?

We've seen that.

Nicola, it was very good, wasn't it?

It was.

Thank you.

What I really...

That's Nicola saying...

What do you say?

Turn out what?

Turn out...

Yeah, turn out a teniche.

The thing...

This is a good behind the scenes, actually, for the...

I'd call you the ultras.

In the early days of the Fast and the Curious,

I was saying to Christian,

I would love it if you could just learn,

at least embrace TikTok.

I remember this.

It was right down.

I'm not doing it.

I don't want to do it.

I don't like social media.

I don't understand it at all.

And then I said, look, everyone finds...

You don't have to do embarrassing things.

Cut to the coffee machine.

So you don't have to do embarrassing things.

You can find your little community and then it grows from there.

And then to TikTok,

he was like, this is the best thing ever.

I'm having amazing conversations with people in China about stuff.

No, I've been the government, but it's strictly true.

Still follow all three people, but you know.

God, and now you're one of them.

No, as I said earlier,

as the appraisal, great work on your socials this year.

Thanks.

Just Karun, man.

Karun, we haven't spoken to you since the start of the season.

So, just give us your overview.

Did you enjoy it?

Did you have a nice time?

Did it go the way you thought it would go?

I had a good time.

I think it was a good season.

As you guys said,

we had a couple of less interesting seasons.

And it was great.

It was good to have a three-way battle all the way,

you know, going into the final round.

I think there were various points of the season

where we thought it was going to be one driver or the other.

And it kept changing as well.

You know, I,

at the start of the year,

I thought Lando was going to...

This was made for Lando.

He went into it as a favorite.

Kar was in better shape than anyone else's last year.

He was more experienced.

This was going to be his year.

And then he had a shaky start.

And I have to admit,

when I got on the plane after Canada,

you know, he'd run into the back of Oscar.

They,

he'd had 10 qualifying sessions until then,

including some sprints.

And he made mistakes in five out of the 10 coles.

And I thought,

this is this is not happening.

This is going to be Oscar's year.

And fair play to Lando.

He, I think there were two weekends for me,

Austria and Budapest,

which were big weekends for his season.

He came out from Canada straight to Austria.

Massive pole position gap,

dominated the weekend.

And then Budapest,

you know, he made a mess of the first lap,

frankly, was fifth.

And then managed to hold off,

to go off, under pressure and win.

So to me,

those were the two key weekends for him.

And in the end, after that,

it became, you know,

kind of a two horse race

until the Dutchman arrived like Jaws

or T-Rakes or whatever analogy you want to use.

He made it good though.

Just great.

Oh, you've got to give it to Matt.

Was there a moment where you thought Max could do this?

Or were you always pretty sure it was going to be in Max?

All moments, surely.

But did you waver?

I did after Brazil

because Brazil was a big weekend,

I thought, for Lando,

where he, you know,

he did everything he needed to do.

33 points on the board,

stopped the momentum

that Max had built up a little bit.

I thought, you know,

Mexico, Brazil were two key weekends.

But I mean,

this will be the should or would have

could have championship really, isn't it?

What if Red Bull had a better car

on the first part of the season?

Max outscored Lando by 86

since the summer break.

108 more than Oscar.

What if Lando's engine didn't go pop in Zanvo?

What if Oscar,

God knows what happened to him

in Austin, Mexico, Brazil?

I don't know,

maybe the distance from Australia or something.

He lost his not star.

I don't know,

but those three weekends were a mystery.

Like just some other Oscar piastres showed up.

And you know,

he lost 46 points

just so three weekend.

So I don't think any of them had a perfect season,

right?

We saw Max spinning on a safety car restart.

Where's the last time that happened?

So none of them had a perfect year.

But I think Lando is a worthy winner.

Yeah.

I wonder if it would be interesting

to get a show of hands

or you can speak out your mouth if you want.

But the idea of

is that what is that what you want?

Do you want a should or would have could a championship?

Ideally, you sort of want it to go

right to the wire.

Don't you?

I think that's kind of it.

That's more exciting.

I think what's happened is

we've gotten used to championships

where we don't have reliability problems.

We don't have sort of these bad luck

and these weird seasons

where rebel will nowhere

and suddenly come forward.

But actually,

if you rewind to the the era

when I fell in love with the sport,

the center, Mansel, Prostator,

they were all blowing up.

The engines were popping on the time.

Tires were blowing all the time.

You know, they all lost.

They all had a what if story.

Mansel would have won three championships

if not for this.

Prost would have won six championships.

You know, so

I think we just gotten used to these cars being bulletproof

and you know, drivers

tracing on tracks

where you got massive runoffs

and we don't have the incidents.

And so I just think it's

in some ways,

there's a harp back to to that era.

Yeah, I like having different champions anyway.

Yeah, we we have literally got a rock star

just sat in that room.

So I think we probably got to bring him out

because he's going to want to get stuck

into this conversation

as well.

Sam Ryder.

Welcome to the Fast and the Clear.

Cheers.

Hello.

I've got to say Jesus Christ.

Literally.

Come out of some incense.

Ah, it's perfect.

It's a Christmas show.

We've got Jesus Christ here.

This is

the.

It's because you're playing Jesus.

Thank you for the context there.

I was begging.

Which is that bit?

What are you doing here?

What else are you getting, Sam?

No, I'm just may I'm buzzing to come and chat with you.

Thanks for having me again, man.

Appreciate it.

Love the pod and Karoon legend, mate.

Good to see you.

How are you guys doing?

If I'm okay, everyone enjoyed a season.

Again, yeah, thank God.

It was a good one.

Jesus.

Can we tell the story?

We were just saying this earlier

of how we first got Sam Ryder involved in this podcast

where we were doing the first year we'd been to Silverstone

and Greg had had to go.

So 2020 2023

and we were about to do our debrief podcast

and we'd spoken to Sam over the course of the weekend.

We didn't know Sam anywhere near as well as we know him now

and we'll speak and I'd never met Sam.

No, no, we met the sort of the in the car park

if I remember right was but and Jimmy said

we could ask Sam if he wants to come on.

It was like, yeah, great.

Let's see if Sam Ryder comes on.

He wouldn't.

He'd be like just being in hospitality.

I think he wouldn't but also I think he'd be like most fans

in the paddock where they know celebrities in the paddock

where they know a bit but they don't know loads.

Anyway, and we stood outside and we welcomed Sam to the show

and we do the debrief and Betty asked Sam a vaguely formal

one related question and Sam sort of dives in with.

I think interestingly strategically today

and me and Betty just look at each other like, oh my God.

He knows more than most people in this paddock.

I was talking bollocks.

Don't you worry.

I'm like looking why we like you because you fit in perfect.

I'm like looking at somebody like he knows more about the sport

than I do is like this is the same.

Sam, you are a proper fan of this.

Mate, I'm that within if it was 2023

that was when Oscar he was on the second row at Sir Justin

Winnie and I was getting buzzing by that.

I forgot because on that that I remember being well

excited for him because he would end up probably

and I can't remember if he ended up doing it or not

but leading a lap for his first ever lap as a rookie.

I think he did at some point right because of pits or something

but yeah, that was cool.

And then two years later fighting for a championship

it's insane.

It's probably the point some people forget with Oscar

that he has we said this on the debrief

but it's only his third season.

Yeah.

And also don't forget there was a high chance

he could have ended up at Alpine.

I mean, I think he's burned the bridge there

of sliding doors moments.

Right?

Yeah.

You know, it shows why and how the decisions you make

outside of the car are super important for your career,

life and just as Fernando.

Yeah, exactly.

Exactly.

And Sam, you were in Abu Dhabi.

Yes.

Yeah.

Did you enjoy it?

Mate, I loved it.

The race was I mean a bit flat.

I think we were just discussing this it but it was

kind of like everyone was playing at the safest

they could possibly play it.

Put in Oscar and Harz was like kind of I don't know.

I think put a stopper in any hopes that Mac Macs

would back the pack up or anything like that.

So it kind of felt a bit.

Yeah.

Like I think everyone watching was just gagging

for an engine to blow up.

I think just some do you know something and I'm

so excited for next year because so many engines

are going to blow up.

It's going to be class.

There's going to be tears.

Let's get on to our predictions then that we made

at the start of the season.

Now I don't think you remember what you predicted.

I don't.

Sam, did you have a prediction?

Yeah, I remember and I've been so excited.

Well, I was actually I was so excited halfway through

the season to come back and do this because we sort

of agreed to do this halfway through the season.

I was very incredibly smug with myself just waiting

and then it all fell away.

Well, I believe me and you both said Oscar.

Oscar was our prediction and I remember thinking oh,

yeah, this is going to look good because I remember

I said Oscar in our predictions and someone commented

being like, oh, yeah, you're just saying that for a headline

and I thought I'm going to.

Yeah, those are the days when we those were the

days when we were accused of being pro-piestre bias

because there's a long a time ago now.

What?

Yeah, what?

What we accused of now?

We were because we're British.

We are we there for our British bias now.

That's the thing.

I mean, I get everything after every race is great.

Yeah.

Which means I kind of feel like I'm quite palenced because

the Lando fans think I I love Max and I love Oscar.

The Australians think we are British bias.

Yeah, the Dutchies absolutely think we're British bias.

Yeah.

And the Lewis fans just generally hate me so because

they feel like they feel like I should be writing

a daily letter to the FIA to give him his 2021 championship.

Apparently I have the power to do that.

Yeah.

I do not.

All right.

This makes you feel a lot better because we get broadly

the same.

Yeah, okay.

Good.

No, that's that's lovely.

Christian, you predicted Max Verstappen.

Was weird.

Yeah, yeah.

Very.

It's just fine, sir.

Yeah.

Two points away.

I was two points off.

Yeah.

I just sort of thought it's the it's the Jaws analogy.

I just sort of we were saying at the start of the season

it's McLaren's year and people sent him a red bull

went out of the car and I just sort of was going

yeah, but defying any logic.

He's just going to pull it off and he's so nearly did

sort of exactly what I predicted.

Yeah.

His best season, I reckon, even though he has a one.

I just think he was great.

He's certainly he's certainly the season.

He's won so many more fans because I think his I don't

give a shit mentality comes across very differently

when he's the chaser rather than being chased.

I think he's always just so I like max looking

up to have spoken to and think he's a nice guy.

Like I like the guy and I think people struggle with his

bluntness and his honesty and as I said, I think that comes

across quite differently when he's not really in the

championship.

People think oh, it's refreshing whereas when he's

leading it's oh, it's arrogance.

I think people see it differently.

I agree.

You know what?

I really like max.

I've always got on with him.

I think he's he's just he's just duches and he

just says what he thinks.

Yeah.

There's basically, you know, there's no filter.

He just he's just honest.

He just sort of and there's no nonsense.

You always know where you stand.

He's no one of these drivers like some others where you

don't one day of the week is like oh, how are you doing?

How the family of the rest of the next day?

They'll thank you.

Yeah.

Max is never like that.

You always get the same.

You know where he's found you.

He's consistent.

He's never got a shit about you.

Is that you?

Is that you scarred?

No.

And I just think he's he's been he's been

brilliant this year.

He he's brought the championship alive.

He's you know, he gained 102 points.

He came from 102 points behind.

It's unbelievable.

It was mad.

Yeah, I know.

It was so many.

But I like it.

He choked to death of the foot.

Well amazing.

Yeah.

I mean he won six over the last nine races.

Incredible though.

So you also said that you think this is his best season.

100% and I've grown incredibly fond of max.

Just this this year because I'm I just love

watching him like.

I was like I was about to say my favorite moment of the

season, but I know you're probably going to do a

section like that.

I'm just I'm going to save it.

But I don't think there's a plan.

Is there not?

Okay.

There's not.

Okay.

Like well, no, no, I'm going to save it.

But he was just I was speaking to some of the guys

at Red Bull and they were saying the perception

towards the team has changed drastically this

season because there used to be such a I guess like

I don't why that could be.

It was the head of PR that was telling me nothing springs

to mind.

Yeah, got this.

Yeah.

No, wasn't there?

Yeah.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

but aside from navigating this carefully,

but they were saying like people you know,

it's not uncommon for a lot of people looking at max

now that perhaps felt arrogance before going.

Holy shit.

He's just magic.

Yeah.

He's what is able to achieve is incredible.

And I just want to keep watching it like thank God for

him in this championship.

I think Red Bull were humbled a bit by the whole

thing.

Yeah.

And they had a really stormy part of the season

where they got rid of Christian Horner.

Yeah.

And things.

Was it?

I took my tongue.

Sorry.

Things suddenly got a lot better.

Oh yeah.

I mean, Laura Mickey's has come out of this

season.

I, you know, amazingly, hasn't he since since he took

over and you have to give Christian some credit

because you know, a lot of stuff was put in the

pipeline while he was still around.

But no, you're the rumors.

Yes.

But actually the way their season went up.

I just got that.

I took a couple of seconds.

That's being edited out.

That's why I suspect the investigation found no wrong

doing it such etc.

I just, I'll give you a pickup point.

Shall I Christian?

Yeah.

Go.

All right.

So, I mean, but ultimately, you know, Max won more

races than anyone else.

He led more laps than anyone else and he is emerge

undisputedly as the number one driver in Formula

1.

I don't think anyone can dispute that.

Well, I'm really shocked.

Well, I'm not shocked by this.

Karoon, you guessed right.

You said Lando, which obviously you're always right.

Greg, I don't think you've got a prediction right the whole

time we've done this podcast apart from this one.

Thank you.

So to celebrate it.

It's my British bias.

Don't know how you did it.

So to celebrate it, you can go and host a be the

Christian quiz.

Hey, it's time to beat the Christian.

This is very excited.

I hate this feature so much.

No, great.

Did I actually I said Lando?

You said Lando.

I believe in Lando after that win in Miami.

Season before I saw the whites of his eyes and I thought

he could do this.

It gets a little bit of luck and he got quite a bit of luck.

And when I got everyone got a bit of luck this season

today and you need that in life.

But I think he thoroughly deserved it and he's

you know, he's a great champion.

I think he's going to be even better next season

because of this confidence.

It must give you a room inside.

It's mad, isn't it?

Oh, yeah.

I mean, he'll walk a little bit taller next to me.

I think he I could go one a few ways.

I think either you're going to be like Oscar where

this is going to make him angrier and hungrier to make

it happen or you know, you look at the number of teammates

who lost the championship to their teammate and they're

never quite recovered.

Look at Mark Webber, for example, you know, David

Coulthard, you know, always ended up on the back foot

behind Mika Hakkinen.

So you could go one two ways.

And I'm I'm fascinated to see how both of them, you know,

I think Lando will take a step up.

But I wonder what this will do to Oscar.

And I know we're going to do the quiz, but there are there

are so many informal or heaven forbid, we don't do that.

There are so many people in F1 who who do.

Karine, you all have heard them speak, you know,

do think the Oscars got the highest ceiling.

Think that Lando had to do it this year because

Oscars only in that 30s and will keep improving.

I think therefore Lando surprised a lot of people

this season when he did come back from the middle

of the season.

It looked so sure that Oscar was going to do.

He was on that run.

He looked indisputable.

I think Lando surprised people by being able to come back

from that.

The next thing will be those people that do say well,

no Oscar's going to keep growing and growing.

It will be for Lando to sort of surprise them again.

And I think that's what I'm really excited to see

because I think Lando has proved that he got more

in his locker this season than some people had given

him credit for.

Barton McLaren gonna have the car next season.

All right, this to do this quiz for timing reasons.

Yes, we will do some predictions.

We just drop the quiz.

No, no, no, no.

We don't drop the quiz.

We will have some prediction predictions for next season.

And I'm really interested to hear what you will think

about next season.

So we'll we'll do that.

But for now, welcome to beat the Christian knife.

This is the game that test Christian Hewgill's credentials

as our resident F1 expert.

Why though?

It's a game he loves.

For this edition of the quiz,

he'll be up against a very special guest.

Please welcome to the stage.

Dominic Rodgers.

He was slightly afraid.

I was gonna say, can I just ask?

Did we?

Did we ask Dominic Rodgers?

Because the reaction of Dominic Rodgers is just not his name

forward there we go.

So for the sake of this recording,

I'm gonna leave my seat and you're going to come sit here.

Dominic Dominic is about time I sat next to a professional.

Can we sit down?

Dominic Rodgers, everybody.

Dominic Rodgers, does he?

Yes, he does.

Don't bully the listeners.

We've been we've been definitely gotta come out.

Yeah.

Oh, that's fine.

He's not gonna sue.

But he might Roger.

Where's Sue now?

The rules are simple.

You'll both be asked five questions about the 2025 form in a one

season.

Dominic, did you watch it?

Yes.

I will say that I probably should have done some revision.

Have you not?

You're not the only one path.

No, we're very, very happy to have you here.

So actually just tell us, tell us your f1 credentials.

I see that you're wearing a Williams t-shirts.

I guess you're a Williams fan.

What have you made of their season?

Fantastic season for them.

Yeah, brilliant season for Williams.

So I sort of started watching in 20, sort of late 2021.

So first place was the Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamdenrace.

Of course.

So I could runes fault.

Yeah.

Obviously.

Every day that passes as a letter that could have been sent.

Yeah.

Fuck you.

Could have been sewn up.

I thought I'll get typing now.

You've ruined the sport forever now.

It's still in the fax machine, all right.

Sorry, Dominic Rodgers.

Yeah.

So I'm one of the basically drive to survive generation.

So.

Yes, which we celebrate on this podcast firmly.

And therefore the questions were about the 1996 season.

So let's hope that they have fairly.

For my sake.

I really hope so.

The reason I hate this feature is because my memory is not my strong point of my f1.

You're stalling, come on.

Yeah.

We love you.

You're great.

You have two lifelines during the quiz.

What kind of thing?

The fed.

You know, well, you can call Karun.

Oh, who's over there?

Oh, okay.

If it's like Millie now, I'm going to enjoy it more.

I'm assuming this is me not.

No, it's not you.

What can I do?

Call Karun.

Yep.

But Mr.

You're the expert.

I don't know.

You can't call anyone.

You're the expert.

What do you remember?

I love how excited you are getting about this.

Oh, I get it.

I mean, you literally, you literally do work for Formula One.

You sit in the statistician's room at the race track.

You're not helping.

You call producer Jimmy.

Yeah.

Yeah, okay.

Fine.

Yeah.

I'm not really excited then.

Okay.

So you can call Karun if you like, okay?

You'll be able to tap into Karun's thousand of F1 knowledge

and get his advice on the question that you're stuck on.

Or of course you can ask our wonderful audience.

Okay?

Christine, you're not allowed to talk to these people.

It's best of five.

Can I even do 50-50?

No, nothing.

Let's begin.

You won't be able to see what the audience is saying.

Thank you, Dominic.

Yes.

Would you like to co-host a Formula One Porsche?

This is an advert for eBay.

Oh, guys.

Don't you think car buying has become a pretty dull experience?

I personally cannot think of anything less exciting.

But on eBay, behind every car and part is a story waiting to be shared.

Like this guy I read about who bought a 2020 Porsche Cayman GT4 on eBay.

It was well loved.

I mean, there are plenty of Caymans in great condition on eBay.

But this one, it needed a lot of work.

So after this guy gets a great deal on his dream car, he rebuilds it.

The whole thing with all of these parts that he found on eBay.

Performance breaks, suspension, body panels, the absolute works.

Next thing you know, this nearly scrapped Cayman was out there on the track.

As a full blown race car.

You're ready to go daily driver.

Your next restomod.

That means restoration plus modification.

If you didn't know.

eBay has thousands of cars and is the largest online selection of vehicle parts and accessories.

eBay things people love.

Question number one.

Hang on, so how do we buzz in? What do we do?

What do you handle?

How do you want to do it?

You ask the question, they both give an answer.

Yeah.

I don't know.

Okay, great, fine.

They might copy each other's answers.

Shut up, Betty.

Right.

I thought I was just a random member in the audience.

Just being like...

Betty's just retreated to the audience to heckle.

You've created quite an opinionated culture here with this fun guy.

That showbiz.

Yeah, yeah.

Make sure I answer first.

Yeah, great.

Question number one.

It might feel like decades ago,

but the season started in March in Australia.

Who won the first Grand Prix of 2025?

London Irish.

Who won the first Grand Prix of 2025?

London Irish.

Who won the first Grand Prix of 2025?

London Irish.

Yeah, it was London Irish.

Don't you think London Irish?

Yeah.

Correct, it was London Irish.

You need a bath and a bath.

I forgot a fucking bath.

I'm not one.

Sir, it says Nui.

Me?

I'm not wine with my brain.

Do you want to make a noise?

Yeah, if you like.

What noise do you want to make?

What noise do you want me to make?

Pascua.

There you are.

And they're not as loud as they used to be, are they?

Yeah.

Can we go back to the V10's?

That's the wrong engine.

It's like when Newspeak used a sound effect

from five years ago as a niche reference,

but anyway, okay.

Okay.

Yeah, I think we need a buzz.

I'm going to buzz.

So we're going to buzz in.

Alright.

Why don't we say our name?

Why don't you all come and produce this?

Okay. Ready? Question number two.

Luis Hamilton hasn't had an ideal start to life at Ferrari.

Christian True.

Can I get the point?

Thank you, Alexo. Thank you.

We'll see you after the break.

Class.

Christian is now locked out. Question two.

But Dominic Rogers.

Why was he particularly, in his words, devastated during the Canadian Grand Prix?

Think about Canada, the wildlife around.

What?

Poor Groundhog.

The ground on lap 13, you say? Correct.

Question three.

Can I ask the same question again? It'd be Groundhog Day, of course.

I think it's a minus one for that, surely.

Yeah, I'll take your five-second penalty.

I'll add it to the facts, if any, if I...

Give him a five-second penalty before he answers.

We need better stewards. Anyone here interested?

No.

Probably Karun's fault, anyway.

Question three.

Nico Holkenberg earned the first podium of his F1 career

after finishing third at Silverstone.

How many races had he taken part in before finally getting...

Christian.

...five seconds into the top three?

Donnet, I would like to ask for some help.

And a lovely use of the prime penalty, as well.

Very good.

That's a bad question.

Hang on a second. We're gonna call Karun.

Hi, Dominic. How's it going?

Excellent. Thank you.

I do need a little bit of help with...

What are you doing today?

So, I'm currently on Fast and Curious Live.

Oh, wow!

I need some help with question three.

This question is,

how many races did it take Nico Holkenberg

before his first F1 podium at Silverstone 2025?

I have no idea, but I could...

I suggest you speak to Christian Hubel.

He's the founder of Knowledge, that place.

Or you could ask the audience, as well,

if he's not happy with Karun.

I have no idea.

I think it's pretty hard for me.

Can I have at least a go after my five seconds?

Okay, so...

Oh, wait, I have an answer.

Abu Dhabi was his 250th Grand Prix.

Hang on.

Two hundred and fifty-nine.

Eight.

Abu Dhabi was in Abu Dhabi.

Two-fifty was Abu Dhabi, yeah.

You're saying 239, that's the correct answer.

Muy bien, muy bien.

Estoy muy malo,

porque estoy tan malo con estas imágenes.

Y yo actualmente trabajé eso,

mientras estabas haciendo los talentos de Chris Bloody.

Y yo actualmente lo he hecho.

Vámonos.

¿No?

¿No es loco cuando él actualmente llega a cruzar?

Es una de las cosas favoritas.

Pregunta cuatro.

En Augusta, fue confirmado

que Cadillac estará acompañando el grado en 2026.

Por favor, llama la línea del equipo.

No, no.

Names por un punto.

Sergio Perez.

Vámonos.

¡Hey!

¿Qué tal?

Por un punto, ¿cuál es el conductor de reserva?

Colton Herter.

Sí, te lo dices.

Yo creo que te daré los puntos.

Me siento malo.

Impresionante.

¿Puedes llamar al equipo principal?

Sí, si quieres.

Game Lab.

Sí, bien.

¿Sabes que es verdad?

Sí, bien.

No.

¡Oh, Lamy!

Sí, Lamy.

¡Bien!

Yo no quiero ser pedantico,

pero Colton Herter no puede ser el conductor de reserva.

Él no tiene un license super.

¡Super license!

Es el conductor de reserva.

Solo para ser pedantico sobre esto.

¡No!

Pero yo creo que te darás un punto para eso.

Te darás un punto.

¡Ahí está!

¡Sorri!

Las reglas de la FIA.

Tienes, básicamente, el icono, a este punto.

Me acuerdo con Carlos Sons.

Yo creo que serás un chico, Jesus.

Ok.

Es 4-2

a Dominic Rodgers.

No puedes ir con Don, por cierto.

Sé que no puedo.

Cuerza 5.

Si has visto estas reglas de reserva,

irás por la FIA.

¡Suscríbete!

La FIA es deliciosa.

Las Las Vegas Grand Prix

siempre atreven

algunas de las más grandes celebridades en el mundo.

Pero, ¿cuál es la flaga checa

en el final de este año?

¿Cuerza?

¿Fiancé?

Incorrecto.

Las Las Vegas Grand Prix.

¿Quién fue?

¿Puedo preguntar cuánto es el audio, Dominic?

20.

Sí, no sé qué es.

No creo que...

Sí, sí.

Pueden preguntar, por favor.

Pueden preguntar a la audiencia.

¿Pueden preguntar a la audiencia?

¿La audiencia?

Las opciones son...

Beyoncé.

Terry Crews.

Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Bueno, voy con Catherine Zeta-Jones, por favor.

Argo, Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Mi...

mi favorita celebridad de la nana.

Sí.

Es Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Must be about seven, two up by now.

Which means actually you've won

Beat the Christian, you have beaten him.

Jimmy.

Bring the trophy out.

Oh my word.

Thank you so much.

The trophy, okay.

You can't actually keep that.

No.

But that is a light

that we found in the venue, isn't it?

Yeah.

Tell you what, you've won this potter plant as well.

Oh, you want it?

You can take it out with you.

There you go.

And I'm saying you can keep that.

Dominic, before you go,

I want to get some...

I want to get some thoughts on the next season.

Okay, so what would you want to happen

and what do you think is going to happen?

A 20 year old's perspective on this sport.

So I'm a bit of a pessimist.

I'm just remembering about the 2022

and I remember things...

I don't know, I just feel like the teams

are pretty spaced apart

at the start of the ruleset

because some teams get it right

and some teams don't get it right.

So, yeah, I don't know.

I feel like the end of the ruleset

everyone converges.

At the start, it might be not as...

So you think it's going to be really dull?

Thanks for coming on, Dom.

Yeah, there we go.

Happy Christmas, everyone.

Dominic Rogers, everybody.

Thanks, Dominic.

Betty, from an audience's perspective,

did you enjoy that quiz?

I had such a good time.

That was really fun.

Good.

I'm going to clap to someone.

I was going to ask if there was anything you changed,

but you basically did the entire time.

I felt like I was always in control after that.

Actually, you guys did not have a lockdown.

We're going to have a little interval in a second.

But before that,

I wanted just to talk about your year

and I'm surprised that you actually get a chance

to even watch any Formula One

because you've...

I mean, not only did you have an album,

you did Big Wembley Show,

you're about to be in Jesus Christ,

a actual superstar.

Yes.

It's been a fun year for you, right?

Mate, it's been so much fun.

And to answer your question,

I got to watch a lot of the races

before the summer break,

but after the summer break,

it was basically dodgy streams.

Do you know what I mean?

Right, you know.

That's an old VPS.

Yeah, exactly.

Oh, actually, fuck them.

No.

You mean you watched every race

with Sky Sports F1?

Good.

Thank you for doing my wages.

Oh, dobbin' me into the bosses.

Mate, you've lived part-time in America now.

Yes.

And have you noticed since going back there

quite often that there's a real growth

with this form?

Mate, people love it.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

And I wonder if, and I hope,

I live in Nashville now half the time,

I'd love there to be a race in Nashville

because I can actually go and watch a race

and not be streaming it

in an airport toilet.

Is Abu Dhabi the only race you made it to?

I made it to Silverstone,

to be fair, as well.

Yeah.

No, never been to an American race.

Oh, are you joking?

Austin's my favorite race of the year.

Austin's got the one.

He's absolutely my favorite race of the year.

What makes you your favorite?

The city is amazing.

The track itself is, you know,

it's only half an hour from the city.

And it's just,

you always get a pretty decent race there.

Yeah.

The crowd is amazing.

But Austin is the only city

I go to in the States.

And I think, you know, I could live here.

I would have made it to Austin.

Absolutely, brilliant.

And we were lucky

because of the Austin,

Mexico doubleheader.

We stay out for two, three days,

you know, afterwards.

Sick.

And you go to the barbeque places

and all that sort of stuff.

It's brilliant.

Absolutely brilliant.

One of the things I love about you, Karun,

is that you also design race circuits.

I'm really fascinated by this.

What are you working on at the minute?

It's not a nerd's perspective.

I'm just interested.

So we were involved with Thailand.

The development's going on there,

which is slightly unpolisical.

They've had changes of government

and things like that.

So that's slightly un pause.

But outside of F1,

working on a track in Canada.

All the designs done

that are in construction

at the phase of the moment.

But it was super cool in the summer

in August I went there

and they had these,

these buggies,

these rage buggies

that you drove around to

and I got to drive around the track,

which, you know,

I've done hundreds,

maybe thousands of laps

on my simulator

while designing it

and testing it.

And it was cool to actually

drive around, you know,

living, breathing circuits.

Yeah.

And the asphalt

will be down next year.

So that's cool.

Can have a look.

When you start,

it's easy, isn't it?

Start.

Draw it.

To be honest,

you do start

with a blank piece of paper

and go,

well,

that's the shape of the land.

What can we fit in it?

But then you go

into lots of different layers

of, you know,

how you have to make it work.

It's got to be good

for driving.

It's got to be good

for overtaking,

good for spectators.

You got to find space

for the paddock

and hospitality.

Like there's a lot of layers to it.

And then you get

the safety side on top.

The Abu Dhabi,

we were talking about this question,

weren't we?

It's not a classic.

Well, I believe Korean helped them

improve it.

We did the redesigning

just before 21.

I was part of the team

just before the 2021 season.

Yeah.

But you were saying the other day

about the circuits

that don't allow that much

overtaking.

Yeah.

I mean,

but also what doesn't help

that is this current,

well now past generation of car

where they are big.

We're talking on this part

about 2026.

We'll talk loads more

about this in the new year,

but the cars are smaller.

DRS is gone,

RIP DRS,

but there'll be a new

push to pass system.

The wings will move anyway.

So the FIA's hope

is that tracks like Abu Dhabi

where it is more difficult

to overtake,

we'll talk about that less

because the long-term

goal of Formula One

is to bring the cars.

You know,

we looking at

would have been to like

McLaren where the

line up the cars

10 years gone by

and as you go back

through the years

the cars get smaller

well F1 needs to go back

to that point

where the cars are smaller

and more nimble

and easier to race.

Yeah,

but I also,

I actually think that

tracks like

Silverstone

and Abu Dhabi

have got the right balance now.

Well yeah,

it's over digging.

I mean Oscar

pull off a fantastic

round the outside

of Lando,

the opening line

and actually the,

what we didn't realize,

you know,

the TV direction followed

rightly I think

that the championship leader

was fine.

You know,

we saw,

I think it was

Bearman was in the fight

Ockham was in the fight.

And my,

at least a good example of that

as well, isn't it?

That was criticism

in its first year,

the last two seasons

you have been able to take.

And actually,

I do think you get

races like Spa now

where overtaking

is almost too easy.

Yeah,

just right.

Last part,

as soon as something

gets closer

at the first hairpin

and LaSauce,

you just know they're

going to get overtaken

at the top of the hill

and that's like

I think there's a balance there.

Betty,

imagine you wanted to go

to one of these races.

Sí.
