Summary

Having met on a bike ride in Monaco last month, G brings along Mercedes F1 driver George Russell to the GTCC for a bumper final episode of 2022! We find there are lots of similarities between the sports - competing with teammates, dealing with aggressive drivers, and needing to keep at racing weight. And as a one-off, we also allow discussion of the dreaded c word. Plus, Tom and Geraint take on our Christmas tree quiz and back by popular demand, G has yet another go at speaking Dutch. Merry Christmas everyone and Happy New Year! See you in 2023... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
