| 0:11.4 | You know what time it is. |
| 0:13.3 | It's another livery reveal. |
| 0:16.0 | It's another discussion. |
| 0:17.6 | I am sad, Tommy, because this was supposed to be us, firstly, seeing each other |

| 1:32.5 | You can tell we're only talking about a one minute video |
| 1:38.8 | Can't you? |
