You are listening to Mist Apex Podcast. We live F1.

Welcome to Mist Apex Podcast. I'm your host, Richard Spanner's ready.

We focused very much on the Lewis Hamilton Max Verstappen fight on Sunday.

It felt a bit uncomfortable at the time, but listening back I think it was justified

and we've had really great feedback from that show.

And we've even had people who claim to be Red Bull and Verstappen fans.

I think more relieved that there was more balance than they perhaps expected from that show and that lineup.

I hope you guys enjoyed it, but I did want to get back on the mic and address some of the midfield stuff.

We've got a few non-race topics to talk about as well.

And then maybe we'll have a little bit of a look ahead to that finale in Abu Dhabi.

We are, of course, joined by Matt to romp it.

How's it going Matt?

It's going fine. You know, my favorite part of the show is when you tell me what's on the show

and then I look at what I've actually put in the notes and go, where's the rest of it coming from?

All right. Yeah. So my job is to just declare things.

Use sort of out as we go through the show, but some positive Mist Apex news that I want to address.

You, in fact, pointed this out to me that we are scoring very highly in the charts at the moment.

So in the UK iTunes charts, we are the 34th ranked sports podcast, which is just incredible.

And if you look around at the company, we are up and around all these very highly polished, well-funded shows.

And I think I just wanted to say to you, Matt, well done.

And you too, extremely well done.

I'm very proud of what we've done, but I have to say we could not have done it alone.
