| 0:00.0 | Hello and a very warm welcome to F1 Nation. I'm Natalie Pinkham and I'm delighted to be |
| 0:11.7 | joined by Mr Tom Glocks and how are you T.C.? |
| 0:15.3 | Pink's I'm very, very well still in Portugal where the weather is fine and I'm still buzzing |
| 0:21.0 | about the Grand Prix at the weekend actually. How about you? |
| 0:24.1 | Well, I'm actually down in sunny Devon and I broke away from a little family holiday |
| 0:29.2 | to watch the race yesterday and to be with you today. |
| 0:31.9 | I think we were incredibly spoiled with the first two races. I didn't find this one as entertaining |
| 0:38.8 | maybe just because I wasn't there but I did love watching the cars on track. I don't |
| 0:44.6 | know about you but it really felt like a roller coaster when you came over and the stomach |
| 0:50.9 | went up into the back of your throat every single time. You couldn't get in. |
| 0:56.4 | So true and it's like they've really nailed how to get the gradient on the TV compared to when |
| 1:03.2 | we were here in October. The helicopter shot as you're coming out if I think it was turned seven |

| 1:13.9 | I loved the race as well. I felt yes it was a different kind of race to the opening too. I mean |
| 1:20.2 | Bahrain was all about the anticipation of waiting for the overtake. We could see Max gaining |
| 1:25.2 | on Lewis couldn't we and then Imola was just chaos because of the weather largely and then |
| 1:30.8 | of course the red flag and this one was a bit more of a slow burn. But let's remember we did have |
| 1:36.9 | overtakes for the lead. We saw all of the cars running flat out for really long periods and |
| 1:44.5 | that was largely due to having the harder tire here this weekend. So it was an old school-grown |
| 1:49.5 | pre. But I loved it. I loved it and I thought the best man on the day won it. |
| 1:53.7 | Here comes Hamilton. On Max Verstappen. Hamilton retakes that second place. Hamilton's got DRS. |
| 1:59.8 | He's within touching distance of his teammate. He's ahead of his teammate Lewis Hamilton. |
