Thank you for listening to the late-breaking F-1 podcast. Make sure to tune in for new episodes every Wednesday and Grand Prix Sunday.

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

Not only is it a warm welcome to the late-breaking F-1 podcast, it is a warm welcome to the seventh annual teammate laws. Sam, you must be hyped. I'm so hyped. I'm ready back for another championship battle, you know, I feel they need to

claim another title. And then, of course, the defending defending champion and there is a third entry into

the roster he's been here every year but harry how you're feeling about it is this year your year

no i don't really want to be here i know i missed sunday's episode but i think i should have

missed this one because here for vibes it's's interesting. I was listening back to last year's teammate wars episode earlier, and we kind of kicked off in the same way where it was, hey, it's teammate wars, Harry, you're happy to be here? And you just sort of went, no, don't want to do this. Every year. So nothing's changed. I don't want to do this.

Why do we do this?

To laugh at you. Can I laugh at you? Can I laugh at you caught? Teammate was? No. You get paid enough. But it would make no difference to the outcome at the end of the year if I didn't do these predictions or not. It would make a difference to the enjoyment in my life, though.

That's true.

Oh, well, at least I'm making didn't do these predictions or not. It would make a difference to the enjoyment in my life, though.

That's true.

Oh, well, at least I'm making a difference somewhere.

So, teammate wars, the three of us go up against one another.

Very simple concept.

All 10 teams, we decide which of the two drivers is going to score more points over the course of this 2023 season.

Harry, I think it's your year.

It's time.

It's going to happen.

I'm team Harry.

You said that last year and it didn't work.

I'm afraid, Sam.
