MotorTranscript
00:11Good morning everyone and welcome to the Cadillac display.
00:15I'm Mike Sparanzini and I'm the managing director of Cadillac Canada.
00:20I have the good fortune of having this role at a really exciting time in our history.
00:25I couldn't be more excited than to be standing in front of the Cadillac F1 Barcelona Shakedown replica.
00:36This car is so cool and I am looking forward to Cadillac entering F1 racing.
00:45It will kick off in Melbourne not too long from now and I'm looking forward to being on the ground
00:51in Montreal at this year's Montreal Grand Prix.
00:54Really exciting times for the brand, lots of wins and we are just so appreciative that you're spending time with
01:03us here today.
01:18Alright, good morning everyone. My name is Lieutenant Commander Lisa Tubb. I'm the Public Affairs Officer at the Canadian Forces
01:25Recruiting Group Headquarters.
01:28Today we have all three elements represented here at the Canadian International Auto Show.
01:33We've got the Royal Canadian Navy, the Canadian Army and off to my left the Royal Canadian Air Force.
01:40Good morning everybody. My name is Lieutenant Commander Simon Chow.
01:44I am the Commanding Officer for the Canadian Forces Recruiting Centres for the Southern Ontario region.
01:51We're really excited to be here this year as a feature exhibit and be able to bring a lot more
01:57toys than we have in the past.
01:59I'll run you through a quick tour of our exhibit this year.
02:02So to my back right here, they're coming tonight. I know it's just an empty desk there right now.
02:07But that will be a drone simulator from our Navy.
02:11A very interactive display there where people will be able to come and fly some of our Navy drones.
02:17To my immediate right here is our hammerhead drone, which the Navy uses for a variety of drills.
02:24We use it for target practice. We use it to simulate small boat attacks against our ships and other things
02:31as well.
02:32In front of me to my right is one of our new Army combat support vehicles.
02:38It comes in only one colour, our signature Army green.
02:42And these ones are new vehicles that are just coming online right now, which we're very excited about.
02:47To my left right here is kind of the workhorse of our Army right now.
02:52The light armoured vehicle 6.
02:56And people will be able to go inside this one through the back and take a look inside.
03:02To my far left is the LTV, the light tactical vehicle,
03:08which we use to transport troops from point A to point B.
03:12If we are feeling nice that particular day and want to give them a ride.
03:16We also do then to like to walk 10 to 15 kilometres with 60 pounds on our backs as well.
03:21To my left there is our aircraft assets.
03:25We've got an engine from our C-130 Hercules transport aircraft.
03:29And then behind it to the left is also a compressor from the same aircraft.
03:34And behind those, again they're arriving tonight, but will be another interactive display where people will be able to do
03:41a virtual walkthrough of the 130 Hercules aircraft.
03:46Look around you.
03:47When you think of a career in the military, you often think of being in the front lines, combat operations.
03:54Think of all the occupations and specialties that are required to make these vehicles run.
04:01Fly those planes.
04:03There are opportunities for technical jobs in the Canadian Armed Forces and moreover, for paid education pathways.
04:11For the majority of our technical occupations in the Canadian Armed Forces, you can get your tuition covered and a
04:18guaranteed job after graduation.
04:21I'm certainly jealous of that pathway.
04:23I wish I had taken advantage of it, and yet here I am.
04:27Additional to that, I do want to make some notes on recruiting.
04:32So right now, in the current fiscal year, as of 5 February, the Canadian Armed Forces have recruited 5,381
04:39new members to our team.
04:41The detachment here in Toronto specifically have recruited around 500 alone.
04:47Additionally, this centre has received 27% more applications than the last fiscal year.
04:54If you have any further questions about recruiting, please come see me.
04:57I'd be happy to assist.
04:59And my colleagues here can respond to any other more technical questions that are a bit above my expertise.
05:05Thank you so much for being with us today.
05:07Thank you for joining us here at the Canadian International Auto Show Media Day and for coming by the LEGO
05:13Group Display here at the 700 level once again.
05:17As always, they are going to attract a lot of attention with their display that they have put together.
05:23This year is no different.
05:25It's spectacular.
05:26We're pleased to welcome back again this year, Lubor Zalinka, who is the design manager specialist for LEGO Group to
05:33discuss this incredible LEGO 1950s Cadillac Fleetwood.
05:39Lubor, first of all, congratulations on putting this together. It's an amazing vehicle to look at.
05:46Thank you very much on behalf of the whole team and we are very happy that we can be here
05:50again with this vehicle.
05:51You mentioned it when we spoke last year, but tell us a little bit of your background, how you came
05:56to be involved with the LEGO Group and putting this project together.
06:00Was it just an extension of childhood?
06:02Basically, yes. I always assumed that I had been with the company for almost 12 years, but I had over
06:0730 years of building experience.
06:10But I actually studied multimedia and graphics and I spent some time in the film industry and then when LEGO
06:16was hiring for external freelance 3D modeling work, I applied.
06:21I loved the fact that unlike with movies, this gets built physically, so it just exists in the end in
06:28the real world.
06:29And then I applied for a full-time job and I never left.
06:32It's wonderful and you get to create beautiful vehicles like this LEGO Cadillac and attract an incredible amount of attention
06:42here at the Canadian International Auto Show.
06:44You're back again this year. Obviously, it's an important event to be at for LEGO as well.
06:48Absolutely. We are just displaying our passion for vehicles. This is the best place to be in.
06:54And also showcasing that LEGO Brick is the ultimate creative medium, as I like to call it, because you can
07:00build anything that you can dream of.
07:03So no matter if it's a vehicle or anything else, if you imagine it, you can build any bricks.
07:08Do you start a project like this LEGO Cadillac as, hey, what do you think if we try this?
07:15What's the motivation? What's the inspiration? How do you decide to do this?
07:18Well, the inspiration was, or the ask rather, was, let's get a nice cool-down car, let's get a nice
07:26ride for Las Vegas Grand Prix,
07:28because this is where the car debuted, to carry the winners of the Las Vegas Grand Prix last year.
07:32And the inspiration was, obviously, Elvis Presley's Bing Cadillac, because it was a better match for Vegas style and the
07:40golden era of American automotive design than Cadillac in Bing.
07:45So then we spent a few weeks on designing the small model first, actually, because there's no set like this.
07:54This is a one-of-one creation, and once you decide, okay, this is what we're going to do, we're
08:02going to create a LEGO Cadillac,
08:04how do you then begin the process? And you were on a very tight timeline as well.
08:08That's great. We only had four months, start to finish. When I say we, it's a team of 17 people,
08:14including engineering specialists,
08:16the procurement, project management, and the builders. How do you start? You start with a blank piece of paper.
08:24We have a lot of research and inspiration from different model years of Cadillac.
08:30And then, just like you would do in your home or bedroom, if you're a kid, you build and build
08:36and create until we went through about 12 different iterations of the design,
08:41for the small car. And at the same time, we actually did wooden mock-up of the interior, because we
08:46needed to find out,
08:47we needed to seat five people and we needed to make sure everybody fits. We had a special configuration for
08:53cameramen,
08:53because that was the ask, and we people in the back, Derrick Goose behind the wheel, so we had to
08:59do the math right from the start.
09:01And then, we do the small set and started scaling up.
09:05It's a unique set of challenges, as you mentioned, having a car that needs to operate on a broncary track,
09:13you need to carry passengers, you need to be able to drive and transport.
09:18On live television. On live television. So there are other stumbling blocks that you have to, and obstacles that you
09:23have to overcome as well.
09:24So it's problem solving as well as creativity.
09:27Absolutely. And it just goes hand in hand with our motto of inspiring and developing the builders of tomorrow.
09:33So, this is ultimate engineering achievement, because it's a rolling vehicle, as you just said. It's not just a display
09:40piece.
09:42So, for example, the chassis is our own custom engineering. We don't do just the bricks in Derrick Goose, but
09:49we have a team of very good engineers who did the chassis, integrated the powertrain, and we had to figure
09:54out all the different bits and pieces.
09:57For example, because this is over 400,000 bricks, one of the biggest challenges was the wave.
10:03I absolutely wanted white mold tires and the wire rings, because these are so accurate, and they, for me as
10:09a designer, they do like half of the appearance.
10:12But we were starting to find the right load bearing index for the tires, because we were so heavy. It's
10:17over 2,000 when loaded. So, yeah.
10:20Yeah, this is a very hurdles in one way.
10:22And you have to accommodate the number of passengers and be able to operate. And you mentioned over 400,000
10:29Lego bricks.
10:30And it's over 123,000 of them are pink.
10:34Yes, that's correct.
10:35That's an amazing number, just to be able to coordinate that. And it's very comfortable to sit in, which you
10:42just asked me.
10:43This is a little surprising that you're sitting on Lego bricks, but it's a very comfortable ride.
10:48For all the jokes about studying Lego, sitting on it, it's not too bad.
10:52We put extra attention into making those surfaces smooth, and also on the sides. So, yeah, it's very comfortable.
11:01The smiles and the joy I had getting in, that you have still getting in after, I don't know how
11:06many times.
11:07But it was evident if you were watching the Las Vegas Grand Prix as well, the drivers getting in, being
11:11excited, thinking, this is a really unique ride.
11:14Absolutely. And also, their driver, their recruits, was so happy. He's a lifelong Lego fan himself.
11:21So, he was like, he was like a kid in a candy shop.
11:23And I saw that first hand, and see the drivers, and him having so much fun with something that we
11:29created.
11:30That was like, ultimate achievement. And they were so happy. You can see, you can tell.
11:37Even after competing in a Grand Prix. Now, this is the star attraction that enters into the Lego group display
11:43here at the Canadian International Auto Show.
11:46Tell us about some of the other parts of the Lego group display this year as well.
11:51Well, if you like middling, and if you like to build cars, we have plenty of room for you.
11:55You can go in and build a car of your own. If you are more into F1, we also have
12:01F1 room, where you can go and model at some other Lego models.
12:06Not as big as this one, but we have some F1 cars as well.
12:10We also have some props you can take pictures with. So, Lego helmets, like a Cup for the winners. We
12:17have all of that.
12:18And last but not least, there's a well-stock shop. So, if you would like to build at home, you're
12:23more welcome to store by.
12:25And pick a vehicle, and anyone, any that matches your preference.
12:30So, there's obviously lots to do here. And the other part that got a lot of people's attention during the
12:37Las Vegas Grand Prix were the glasses that you and I get to wear as well.
12:42Absolutely.
12:43Which is pretty special. And it's a nice tint. It's not too dark. And it's pretty special. So, if you
12:49don't mind, we're just going to sit here and relax and enjoy a little bit of the atmosphere here at
12:55the Canadian International Auto Show.
12:57You've driven this car a few times. What's it like to drive?
13:00It's surprised to be smooth. It's not too fast. It doesn't matter. You just cruise along and enjoy the ride.
13:07I could do this any time ago.
13:09It is quite addictive, isn't it? It's just to get in and settle in. It's the vibe. It's the feel.
13:16It's the Lego Cadillac of Cleveland here at the Canadian International Auto Show.
13:20You're going to be here for a little while as well, too. So, it's great to have questions that they
13:24want to ask, and you can provide the answers.
13:26Actually, I'll also be here tomorrow for your family company. And please drop by. I am very happy to meet
13:33fans of kids at the Las Vegas.
13:34I'll be happy to check and answer any more questions if you have to.
13:37Lou Marzalinka, it is a pleasure again this year to see you here at the Canadian International Auto Show.
13:42Thank you so much, and thank you for bringing this incredible Lincoln down a lot to see us.
13:46Thank you very much. Thank you.
13:55We call this project Play Beyond Limits because it is about that. It's about auto enthusiasts as well as kids.
14:01It's those big kids that we really want to make sure we celebrate, not losing that creativity, not losing that
14:07inspiration that we have as kids, and that we grow with 164 scale cars.
14:13It's our interpretation of what a kid would do with that vehicle.
14:17You've got wild area. You've got all of those kind of details that make it look like it can go
14:22a million miles an hour.
14:23It can go upside down in a loop. It can do jumps. It's the best car on track.
14:31A die cast version of this CLA will be coming in the next couple of weeks. It should be here
14:35in shelves.
14:35It's going to be available at all good retailers. We're very excited to have it out there in our main
14:41line of basics cars.
14:43And it's so exciting to kind of see that brought to a full size.
14:50The fans really love hearing about how a hot horse goes from sketch to shelf.
14:55And with this was all about that concept drawing. We drew over and over again.
15:00It was a very collaborative process with Mercedes-Benz where we were checking in with their team, making sure they
15:05were happy with what we were doing with their car.
15:07And every time they were just giving us that freedom to really go crazy with it, to really go in
15:12the aisle.
15:12So everything you see here is so, we're just so pleased that we were able to do that.
15:19We wanted to blend the realism, but with full fantasy too.
15:23So we've got elements of real racing cars, supercars, things you might see on the street, but we're taking it
15:28to the next level.
15:29Just like any hot horse car. We really wanted to get that hot horse identity.
15:33Hi guys, it's a pleasure to be here. And yes, I've been introduced as Canada's most prolific and who has
15:43the biggest collection?
15:44So who all got Hot Wheels cars when they were a kid?
15:48Yeah, I didn't stop. So I am where I am with 25,500 cars documented, track sets and accessories.
15:56I also run the Northern Lights Hot Wheels Club, which has actually turned into an event now, where we have
16:03a big ballroom full of collectors, full of cars, and we meet each month in bonds.
16:08So you can connect with me after that for details on that.
16:13My first car I collected when I was four years old, and it was a 1969 Beach Balm. I have
16:19that here today.
16:21And I picked it up at the garage sale for 10 cents. And that pretty well got the wheels turning,
16:26and yeah, collected ever since that day.
16:52Now let's move on to our latest creative concept, which we're thrilled to unveil here in Toronto just a few
16:58months after it made its debut in LA.
16:59The vehicle I'm about to present embodies the future design cues and the direction Hyundai is taking.
17:06It's not just a vehicle that takes you places. It inspires you to go beyond the map and explore the
17:12unknown.
17:13So without further ado, here's our latest concept vehicle, the Crater.
17:39And we're here.
17:58We've been going to resume.
17:59We've been able to save those creatures like this today.
18:26Wow, seeing it here really brings
18:29motion and vision to life
18:31when it comes to the vehicle. From the first sketch
18:34Crater was born with a purpose
18:35to conquer any terrain
18:37any condition in any season
18:39the Crater expresses
18:41the art of steel, Hyundai's future
18:43design language, creating
18:45a commanding presence
18:46its silhouette is striking, it's purposeful
18:49it's a compact form
18:51in search of adventure. The steep approach
18:53and departure angles were a purpose built
18:55for untamed terrain
18:57Crater's bold proportions
18:59protective planning, elevated
19:01stance, communicate confidence
19:03and durability
19:04its image
19:07a future where off-road capability
19:09meets advanced connectivity
19:10now let's have a look at what's inside
19:31Alright, there's a lot going on in the interior
19:33it's a space that's really designed to maintain clarity and control
19:37the tangible philosophy
19:39extends to Crater's playful features
19:41designed to spark moment of discoveries
19:43so for instance
19:44the side mirror detaches and becomes
19:47a flashlight and a camera
19:48we've even added a turntable inside
19:50because you know what, why not?
19:52It's a perfect blend of exciting technology
19:55matched with capabilities
19:56and showcases the fun
19:57and creative spirit of our designers
20:00speaking of whom
20:01we have the pleasure of having here
20:03Ms. Ray Rine
20:04who flew all the way from a design studio
20:07in California to be with us
20:09and it's not your typical
20:10auto show vehicle
20:11obviously
20:12and while you can understand
20:14this is far from a production car
20:16the Crater concept
20:17still perfectly represents
20:19Hyundai's vision for future
20:21where technology and design
20:23walk hand in hand
20:24to make our customers' lives better
20:27and next
20:28as you probably know by now
20:30when Hyundai introduces a concept
20:32they're not just empty words
20:34over the past few years
20:36you've seen multiple concepts come to life
20:38as almost identical production vehicles
20:41and today
20:42we're here to share another example of this
20:44exactly three years ago
20:45here today
20:46we introduced the RM22E concept
20:49which was a vision of what a Hyundai Performance
20:52all-electric sedan could look like
20:54the first time in Canada
20:56it's my pleasure
20:56to introduce you
20:58the all-new Hyundai IONIQ 6M
21:27IONIQ 6M is the proof that zero emission
21:29does not mean zero emotion
21:31it's full of adrenaline
21:33it's engineered with intention
21:356M was born in Nhat Nyang
21:37and it was honed in at the Nürburgring
21:39that's where we take the N vehicles
21:41to the edge
21:41and bring them back
21:42with cornering precision
21:43racetrack credibility
21:44and everyday sports car joy
21:48that's the name
21:49N-DNA that powers
21:51that's the same N-DNA
21:53that powers all of our N vehicles
21:54the momentum
21:55from the other end
21:57sets a new bar
21:57so we ask the enthusiasts
21:59what do they want next
22:01and their passion shape

25:18British houses
25:19of luxury
25:20Bentley Motors
25:21and Rolls Royce
25:22Motorcars
25:23I can't think of
25:23two brands
25:25that symbolize
25:25craftsmanship
25:27bespoke
25:28and quality
25:29rather than Rolls Royce
25:30Motorcars
25:31and Bentley
25:32but
25:33to the main event
25:34here
25:35we have three
25:36very unique
25:39incredible vehicles
25:40to show you
25:41here today
25:41from our Hypercar portfolio
25:43this first vehicle
25:45on my left
25:46comes from a brand
25:47that over
25:48the last 24 months
25:50has brought us
25:51a DB12
25:52a DB12S
25:54the new Vantage
25:56Vantage S
25:57Vantage Roadster
25:58the new 2025

26:06the Vanquish
26:07and the Vanquish
26:08Volante
26:08so
26:09I've been in automotive
26:1020 plus years
26:11I've never seen
26:12a brand
26:13with that sort of
26:14product launch
26:15scheduled over
26:16the course of 24 months
26:18so
26:18Aston Martin
26:19is definitely on a tear
26:20but this next vehicle

26:58and is capable
26:59of more than
27:001,000 horsepower
27:011,064
27:02for that to be exact
27:04and Aston Martin
27:05as you can imagine
27:06knows a thing or two
27:07about racing
27:07so much of that
27:09F1 know-how
27:09found its way
27:10in Valhalla
27:11this particular example

27:29into the future
27:30and this next vehicle
27:32over on my right
27:33this vehicle
27:35is all about speed
27:36it is actually

27:43we're not talking
27:44300 kilometers an hour
27:45400 kilometers an hour
27:47this vehicle
27:49can exceed
27:49500 kilometers an hour
27:52it also holds a record
27:53for the fastest
27:540 to 400 kilometer an hour
27:57back to zero time

30:27and
30:28we are thrilled
30:29to see this car
30:30it's been
30:30the word I used
30:32when we
30:33approached today
30:33was stunning
30:34and I think that
30:35is something
30:36that a lot of people
30:37feel
30:37thanks Tom
30:38that's very kind
30:39yes
30:39thanks for welcoming me
30:40as well
30:40it's great to be here
30:41and great to be here
30:42representing McLaren
30:43I'm here to talk
30:44and show you
30:45the W1
30:45your history
30:47with design
30:48and engineering
30:49is sort of
30:50inevitable
30:51you would kind of
30:52get into the family
30:52business if you will
30:53to find your way
30:54and you found your way
30:55with McLaren
30:56yeah that's right
30:57so my family
30:59are all engineers
31:00really
31:00started with my grandfather
31:02he was in the military
31:03and the royal engineers
31:04so it was kind of
31:05inevitable really
31:07my career with McLaren
31:09started in 2017
31:11so getting on
31:12for a decade ago
31:13and my role is now
31:15to look after
31:16W1
31:17among the other secret cars
31:19let's talk about
31:20the W1
31:21and some of the
31:23unique features
31:25it's again
31:26as mentioned
31:27it's stunning
31:27but it starts
31:29as an idea
31:30and first of all
31:32tell us how long
31:32it is in terms
31:33of development
31:34from when you begin
31:35the process
31:36to what we'll see here
31:37so W1
31:38is a 1 car
31:40so I should explain
31:41that F1
31:42P1
31:42and W1
31:43we call
31:441 cars
31:45as the kind of
31:46collective term
31:47what they allow us
31:48to do is start again
31:49with a blank sheet
31:50so go back to
31:51first principles
31:52and really define
31:53what we think
31:54it takes to make
31:55the best driver's car
31:57for road
31:58and for track
32:00so because it's
32:01a clean sheet
32:02it takes a very long
32:03time to develop
32:04by our standards
32:05at least
32:05so we're looking
32:06at kind of
32:07five years
32:08for the cohesive
32:09vehicle program
32:10that some of the elements
32:11of the car
32:12are actually
32:12longer than that
32:13what makes this
32:15a true supercar
32:17so we call
32:19W1
32:19a real supercar
32:20so we went through
32:21this kind of
32:22quite philosophical
32:22exercise
32:23when we embarked
32:24on the journey
32:25to create W1
32:27to define
32:28what makes
32:28a real supercar
32:29and what a 1 car
32:31really is
32:32and what it means
32:33we landed on
32:34four principles
32:35so the first
32:37is performance
32:38everywhere
32:39second
32:40epic power
32:41third
32:42pure connection
32:43and the fourth one
32:44is authentic theater
32:46and it's those
32:47principles
32:48that help us
32:49to create
32:50the perfect supercar
32:51I'll be the guinea pig
32:53and I want to start
32:53with epic power
32:54because that's
32:55demonstrated here
32:56yeah okay
32:57so epic power
32:58I think is a
32:59fairly simple one
33:00to understand
33:01but we've gone to
33:02great great lengths
33:03here so
33:04it's more than
33:05more than about
33:06just numbers
33:07with W1 of course
33:08but to start with
33:09one
33:101275 PS
33:12it's not just
33:13the weight
33:14it's not just
33:15the power story
33:16it's also
33:16about the weight
33:18the two
33:19working in combination
33:20together to deliver
33:21this kind of
33:21ultimate performance
33:23when we wrote down
33:24the target
33:25for W1
33:25we knew pretty early on
33:27that we were going to
33:27have to develop
33:28a completely new
33:29powertrain
33:29so
33:30it's a 4 litre
33:31hybridised
33:32twin turbo
33:32V8
33:33which might sound
33:34familiar
33:34but in fact
33:35it's a ground up
33:37new engine
33:39that
33:40that allowed us
33:41to start again
33:42from first principles
33:43as I said
33:43the engine is
33:44not only
33:45lighter
33:46than our
33:46current V8 engine
33:48but it's also
33:48about 55mm
33:50shorter
33:50being shorter
33:52gives us a
33:52packaging advantage
33:53needs less space
33:54in the car
33:55but also allows us
33:57to have a shorter
33:57crankshaft
33:58which in turn
33:58allows us to
33:59spin the engine
34:00faster
34:00so not only
34:01have we got
34:02the most power
34:03of any
34:03road legal
34:04McLaren ever
34:04but we've also
34:05got the fastest
34:06revving engine
34:07so red lines
34:08at 9200
34:09yeah
34:10that's exciting
34:13let's talk about
34:13now performance
34:14everywhere
34:15and that is
34:16overall
34:16in the car
34:16yeah
34:17so performance
34:18everywhere
34:18is a pretty
34:19simple concept
34:20it's really about
34:20this kind of
34:22almost unimaginable
34:23breadth
34:24that this car has
34:25I said
34:26ultimate driver's
34:27car for road
34:28and track
34:29it's just
34:30as at home
34:31on the road
34:32as it is
34:32on the track
34:34we've got
34:35two cup holders
34:36as well as
34:37all of the
34:37performance
34:37we've got space
34:39for two
34:39two people's
34:40luggage
34:41the headrests
34:42fold down
34:43and you can
34:43store luggage
34:44behind the
34:44occupants
34:45heads
34:46but then
34:47we've got
34:47this huge
34:48well of performance
34:49that you can
34:50just draw on
34:50at any time
34:52the real
34:54kind of art
34:55though
34:55is making a car
34:56that feels
34:57fantastic
34:58feels visceral
34:59and exciting
35:00when you're only
35:01using 10%
35:02of the available
35:02performance
35:03and that's
35:03definitely
35:04something
35:04that you've
35:05achieved then
35:05part of that
35:06is the
35:07incredible
35:07aerodynamics
35:08as part
35:09of the W1
35:11let's start
35:12kind of at the
35:12front of the car
35:13and as the
35:14airflow is coming
35:15over
35:15take us through
35:16what happens
35:17and where the
35:19air goes
35:19and how that
35:20helps the
35:20performance
35:20of this car
35:21sure
35:22so
35:23it's complicated
35:24so I'll try
35:25to keep it
35:25as concise
35:26as possible
35:26but to start
35:28with a number
35:28again
35:28a thousand
35:29kilograms
35:30of downforce
35:31in race mode
35:32obviously
35:33the design
35:33of the car
35:34is kind of
35:35dominated
35:35by aerodynamics
35:36this is getting
35:37into our
35:38authentic theatre
35:39principle
35:40where we've
35:41got this
35:41quite smooth
35:42surface
35:42over the top
35:43of the car
35:44low drag
35:45but actually
35:46all of the
35:47kind of
35:47bolder forms
35:48and surfaces
35:50below the
35:50waistline
35:51are really
35:52controlling
35:52all of the
35:53airflow
35:53around the
35:54car
35:54and crucially
35:55helping us
35:56to create
35:57this ground
35:57effect
35:58downforce
35:58with the
35:59air moving
36:00under the
36:00car
36:00so
36:01we've got
36:02active
36:02aero elements
36:03at the
36:03front
36:03an active
36:04front splitter
36:05that's that
36:05lowest section
36:06that we can
36:07see here
36:07and we've
36:08also got
36:08what we call
36:08the active
36:09long tail
36:09the wing
36:10at the rear
36:11of the car
36:12in race
36:13modes
36:13this extends
36:14300 millimeters
36:17rearwards
36:18it has to do
36:19this in race
36:20mode because
36:20it's not
36:21actually legal
36:21to use it
36:22in that
36:22position on
36:22the road
36:24so you can
36:25see it there
36:25extending
36:26upwards
36:26and rearwards
36:28and it
36:29behaves like a
36:29conventional
36:30active rear wing
36:31but actually
36:32its function
36:33is to extend
36:33the diffuser
36:35so we're
36:36channeling this
36:37very clean
36:37airflow
36:38underneath the
36:38car
36:39all of these
36:40kind of complex
36:41forms that you
36:42can see here
36:42are actually
36:43creating what's
36:44called aerodynamic
36:45outwash
36:46so controlling
36:48the flow of air
36:48around the wheels
36:49and actually
36:50throwing the
36:51turbulent air
36:51that you don't
36:52want out of
36:53the car
36:54channeling it
36:54into the high
36:55temperature
36:55radiators that
36:56we can see
36:56here
36:58and creating
36:59vortices to
37:00seal either
37:00side of the
37:01car
37:01so you've
37:02got this
37:02really clean
37:03airflow
37:04underneath the
37:05car feeding
37:05the diffuser
37:08that is
37:08that's a
37:10very simplified
37:10if you will
37:12explanation of
37:13a complicated
37:13principle but
37:14it's just
37:14there isn't
37:15a piece on
37:16this car
37:17that doesn't
37:18have a function
37:18no that's
37:20right and
37:20that's a bit
37:21of a trademark
37:22of ours so
37:22it's really
37:23its form is
37:24defined by
37:25its function
37:25obviously we've
37:26gone to great
37:27lengths to
37:27make it
37:28useful
37:29but it's
37:30absolutely
37:30about function
37:31I can't
37:32achieve
37:32performance
37:34that this
37:35car can
37:35achieve
37:36without the
37:37design being
37:37dominated by
37:38that
37:38you mentioned
37:40the phrase
37:40authentic theater
37:41and that is
37:42part of the
37:43feel of the
37:43car and the
37:44feelings you
37:45get when you
37:46are seated
37:47in the car
37:47yeah exactly
37:48and this is
37:49the kind of
37:50grander scale
37:51so the race mode
37:52transformation that
37:53we talked about
37:53the wing
37:54extending rearward
37:55the suspension
37:56lowering
37:57so we lowered the
37:57suspension by
37:5827 millimeters
37:59at the front
38:00and 17 at the
38:01rear
38:01it's incredibly
38:02dramatic
38:02but it's
38:03absolutely
38:03functional
38:03that's how
38:04we achieve
38:04that downforce
38:05number
38:07but there are
38:08also smaller
38:09details
38:09when you look
38:10through at the
38:11front clamp
38:11here you can
38:12see these
38:12small openings
38:13that reveal
38:14the pushrods
38:16front suspension
38:17struts
38:17so as I stand
38:19here I'm
38:19looking at the
38:20coil spring
38:21through this
38:22little aperture
38:22obviously a hole
38:24is lighter than
38:25any material
38:26that could be
38:26where the hole
38:27is
38:28everything here
38:28is kind of
38:29doing a job
38:30and then smaller
38:31details
38:31the use of
38:32exotic materials
38:33titanium
38:34magnesium
38:35the 3D printed
38:37wishbones
38:38and even
38:39the materials
38:40inside the
38:40cabin
38:41we've made
38:42some kind of
38:43pioneering
38:44engineering
38:44developments
38:44with materials
38:45this knitted
38:46material that
38:47allows us to
38:48kind of
38:48control
38:49personalization
38:50so we can
38:51fade from one
38:52color into
38:52another
38:52but also
38:54that's used
38:55as a kind
38:55of replacement
38:57for a
38:57conventional
38:58speaker grill
38:58so we can
38:59pass sound
38:59through it
39:00without having
39:01a weighty
39:01speaker grill
39:02you can also
39:03pass light
39:03through it
39:04because you've
39:04got complete
39:04control over
39:05the weave
39:05of that
39:06material
39:07it's very
39:08very clever
39:08that's part
39:09of the
39:10pure connection
39:11inside
39:12because you
39:12are
39:13the seat
39:14does not
39:14move
39:14you are
39:15inside
39:15you essentially
39:16become part
39:17of this
39:17car
39:17that's it
39:18so
39:19if you imagine
39:20yourself
39:20sitting inside
39:21the car
39:21you're not
39:23sitting on
39:23a conventional
39:23seat
39:24as you say
39:24you're sitting
39:25on and in
39:26what we call
39:27the tub
39:27which is the
39:28carbon fibre
39:28monocoque
39:29that's bespoke
39:30for W1
39:31it's called
39:31the aerosel
39:33so it doesn't
39:34get any more
39:34connected than
39:35that
39:35you're kind of
39:35sitting on
39:36the core
39:36of the car
39:37there are some
39:38pads on there
39:39so that it's
39:39comfortable for you
39:40but then the
39:41pedal box moves
39:42towards you
39:42as does the
39:43steering wheel
39:43and the steering
39:44column
39:44and then
39:45what can you
39:46feel
39:46well
39:47beautiful
39:48hydraulic
39:48steering
39:49this has been
39:50a hill to die
39:51on for some
39:52time now
39:53but there is
39:54nothing that
39:54kind of
39:55can come
39:55close to
39:56the tactility
39:57clarity
39:58and feedback
39:59that you get
39:59from a great
40:00hydraulic
40:01steering system
40:03conventional
40:03hydraulic
40:04braking system
40:05but with a
40:05very very
40:05advanced
40:06friction couple
40:07so once you
40:08accelerate
40:09to 200
40:10kilometres
40:10an hour
40:10in 5.8
40:11seconds
40:12thanks to
40:13the power
40:13that we were
40:13talking about
40:14earlier
40:14when you
40:15stand on
40:15the brakes
40:16from 200
40:16kilometres
40:17an hour
40:17you can
40:18stop in
40:18100 metres
40:20remarkable
40:20you mentioned
40:21that you
40:22essentially start
40:23with a
40:23blank sheet
40:24when you're
40:25creating
40:25a car
40:25like the
40:26W1
40:26but there
40:27is DNA
40:27that runs
40:28through
40:28the F1
40:29the P1
40:30and the
40:30W1
40:31isn't there
40:31yeah
40:32absolutely
40:33I mean
40:33there are
40:34some things
40:34that you
40:34can point
40:35to
40:35so
40:35F1
40:36famously
40:37was the
40:38first
40:38carbon fiber
40:39monocoque
40:39in a
40:39road car
40:41that theme
40:42runs through
40:42from
40:43F1
40:44to P1
40:45to W1
40:46there are
40:47then threads
40:48between them
40:48so
40:49hybridisation
40:50that's what
40:51P1
40:51really
40:51brought to
40:52the fore
40:54but
40:55thematically
40:55it's those
40:56principles
40:56that we
40:57were talking
40:57about
40:58that are
40:58what they
40:58will share
40:59and the
41:00other
41:00part of
41:01this
41:02we'll open
41:02the door
41:03so you
41:03can see
41:04in a moment
41:04but
41:06while this
