Hello and a very warm welcome to the late breaking F1 podcast presented by Sam's age and me, Ben Hocking.

On this, I was going to call it a non-race weekend Sunday, Sam, but in truth it is a race weekend for some if your name is Max Wastappen.

My man never stops racing. Every weekend is a race weekend for Max Verstappen.

And as I've just realized, he's in the lead currently, as we're recording this. The man just all he does is wing, wing, wing, no matter what. I feel like that song is actually written about him. Yeah. I mean, there's still quite a few hours to go in this 24 hours as well. So if when it goes out, he's actually crashed out,

then that's going to seem really bad. It shows that we're supporters, though. So that's I'm equally a supporter of the Daksha, which is just running around all on its own.

Is it just a San Lerro? Yes. Just at the back. It's just, yeah, it's like its own class, I think.

It just looks like, like me driving around the Gerberg ring, which I love.

So, yeah, it's good to see that it's sold out this year.

It's great to see the interest in endurance racing is still very much alive.

Been loving it, absolutely loving it.

Do you know what my favourite thing about this whole weekend has been is, like, people in the media

and websites and news outlets and whoever, who don't usually post anything about something

like endurance racing are starting to post because Vastappen's there.

And it's a way, how can you shoehorn Vestappen's name in any headline or tweet that you've got going out? Just look at our episode title today. Yeah. Formula One related with Max Vastappen. At the Ghatzagrin. We would never do something like that. We'd never shoehorn names into titles or anything. Gosh, no, no, no. we're on. Honestly, we're fine. We're in a sent gov. Well, we've got a Q&A coming up later on today. We're also going to be talking about the F1 calendar and some potential changes to that. But we're going to start with Aston Martin, the team that once upon a time Max Verstappen

might have been rumoured to go to.

How many times do you get his game into this opening five minutes? Who, Max Verstappen? Oh, very good. No, I think we're talking about Max Verstappen. Okay, good. So we're talking about a team that Max Verstappen is not racing for, that being Aston Martin. they remain 11th in the Constructors Championship,

joining Cadillac on zero points.

I was going to go for, that being Aston Martin. They remain 11th in the Constructors Championship,

joining Cadillac on zero points.

I was going to go with a Nile Poir because of Eurovision last night,
