0:28.1

Hello and a very warm welcome to the late-breaking F-1 podcast presented by Sam Sage and me, Ben Hocking.

0:34.0

Back with another midweek episode, not a preview because apparently there are two summer breaks this year.

0:35.0

No one told us.

0:54.9

I know. Why does Belgium get the world's biggest break? What's going on? Pro sewing all of Toto's hats, I imagine, that is going to wear for the next. We're really going to try and make that a thing. Toto's hats. But that is a nice segue, because we've had a little bit of time between F1 races. It means we can get out there into the world and pretend that we have lives. We've got to Goodwood, Sam. We touched grass. Literally. We did. We went there as a little late-breaking gang. We had a wonder. We saw some F-1 cars, some F-1 legends. We had a couple of beers, and we were deafened by Felipe Massa in his Ferrari. Yeah, we can't quite put it into terms how close that car was to us as it was being wheeled away

1:15.4

back into the paddock. But goodness me, it'd be loud. Yeah, so you're going to say how close we

1:21.3

were to that car. I had to scoach my tozing because it was that close to running over my feet

1:38.5

frill. And thank you to Goodwood for letting us come along because we were there with media

1:42.8

access throughout the weekend. And, you know, Goodwood, for those of you who don't know, maybe, you know,

1:48.8

based in the US or whatever, like Goodwood has been around for, I want to say, over 30 years now.

1:54.6

It goes back to the 1990s and it's, yeah, a very reputable festival for all of motoring,

2:00.4

not just F1, but obviously there was such

2:02.1

an F1 focus this year with it being 75 year anniversary.

2:06.1

And like you say, the amount of legends that we saw Saturday was dedicated to world champions,

2:11.9

getting seven together in one place is quite a feat.

2:15.2

So well done to Goodwood for that.

2:16.9

And so many epic cars throughout the

2:18.8
