Transcript
00:00It's F1 weekend, the Grand Prix, the Miami Grand Prix.
00:03Are you going, Crowder?
00:04I know you have your dad's memorial this weekend.
00:06Are you going to F1?
00:07I'm not going to F1 because I didn't even know the timing was going down,
00:11but we set up my dad's memorial four months ago,
00:14and I never did the research.
00:16It is the hottest ticket in South Florida.
00:18It's going to be a hot weekend weather-wise,
00:20but it is the hottest ticket in South Florida, this F1 stuff, man.
00:25I love F1.
00:29The race starts at 4.
00:33I don't know.
00:33That surprised me.
00:35I don't know why.
00:36You want to start at midnight?
00:40Of all the times you could have chosen, midnight was the one you're going to want.
00:45Like an NFL game start at 1 and 4.
00:49Like what's wrong with 4 o'clock?
00:51They don't start at 4 on the East Coast.
00:53They start at 1 on the East Coast,
00:55they'll start at 4, but I don't know.
00:57Sometimes you get a 4 o'clock.
00:59Nah, every now and then.
01:00It just surprised me from the standpoint of pretty hot at 4 o'clock, isn't it?
01:05I think it's getting cooler at 4 o'clock.
01:07Is that the idea that the sun's gone down a little bit?
01:09I don't know.
01:10How long does an F1 race last?
01:12Like two hours.
01:13How long?
01:13Two hours.
01:14That's the greatest part about it.
01:15It's different than NASCAR.
01:16NASCAR lasts overnight.
01:18F1 is quick.
01:19I thought this was like the 24 hours of Le Mans.
01:28Jay Keller 5 is listening.
01:30It's such a great joke.
01:34Did you go to Le Mans class when Lori was pregnant?
01:37Different Le Mans.
01:39Oh.
01:39That's Le Mans.
01:41Oh.
01:43I've never seen an F1 race.
01:45It was just two hours?
01:46You've never seen an F1 race?
01:48Not like a whole way.
01:50Not like from beginning to end.
01:53I mean, I got the idea.
01:55They're going around a track, right?
01:57It's a...
01:59They are on a track, Hawk.
02:01It's a sprint.
02:02It's not a long race.
02:06It's not a cross country.
02:07It's not a circle, though, right?
02:09No, no.
02:10But it's fast, and they get after it.
02:13They don't just sit there and do circles like NASCAR.
02:17I think F1 is going to...
02:18Well, I don't know if...
02:20Whatever, but...
02:20Oh, it's going to take off?
02:21That's your hot take?
02:22It's going to take off?
02:23My hot take?
02:24I don't know if it's hot, because now we're allowed to do that.
02:27F1 is a thousand times better than NASCAR.
02:31What do you do?
02:31One lap?
02:33Yeah, just one.
02:34And then they just play Connect Four after for the other two hours.
02:38No, I don't know how long the lap is.
02:40The lap could be 20 miles.
02:41How long is an F1 race?
02:43Like, how long distance-wise?
02:46Yeah.
02:46Yeah.
02:47I don't know exactly how long, but maybe like 150 to 200 miles on average.
02:54Solana, do you know that, or you're just saying numbers?
02:56Yeah, I got to know if you know if that's anywhere in the ballpark.
02:59No, it is, 100%.
03:01I watched Drive to Survive the first season, big Daniel Riccardi fan, and I dabble.
03:07I dabble a little bit.
03:08I went to Miami Grand Prix two times the first two years.
03:14Does an F1 race typically last about 90 minutes for a nonstop race, but with a maximum of two
03:20hours allowed to complete the full distance, which is generally set to be at least 305 kilometers
03:26or 190 miles?
03:30Yeah, it's too fast.
03:35No, I'm like, you're paying all this money, and then the event is over in 90 minutes?
03:42Yeah, but they have the sprint race the day before.
03:44It's a whole event.
03:46It's almost like something based.
03:49It's a party around the racetrack is what F1 is.
03:54You're literally paying to say you went to F1.
03:57Let me tell you how this really goes, okay?
03:58First of all, Hawk, these cars reach like 175 miles per hour.
04:05You sit wherever you get your ticket.
04:08Normally, unless you're a billionaire, you're sitting on like turn seven.
04:14These cars zoom by you 50 times.
04:17You barely see them.
04:18Can't even get a good video or picture.
04:20All you hear is, and then the race is over.
04:27You spent $80,000 on a t-shirt and a hat for Mercedes.
04:31You spent $7,000 on tortilla chips and an Aperol spritz.
04:38And all you got out of it was a video of, there you go.
04:44That's F1, everybody.
04:45Oh, also, you get 18-degree burns sitting in the Miami sunlight.
04:51And that first year was McLaren because McLaren's the best team around.
04:56They were.
04:57They were.
04:58Nope.
04:59Nope.
04:59Listen, no.
05:00They were.
05:01No.
05:01I'll put my vest on.
05:03You better not.
05:04I'll put my orange vest on.
05:06But it's a great time, everybody.
05:08You should check it out, really.
05:09It's a party around.
05:11Right.
05:12So it's not.
05:12So the sporting event itself is secondary.
05:17If McLaren's not running.
05:19What is that's on Sunday, Solana, or Saturday?
05:23Yeah.
05:24Saturday is the qualifying rounds that also start at four.
05:28And then Sunday is the actual race.
05:30All this is on Apple TV, by the way.
05:32I know most of us have an Apple TV subscription because we watch Inter-Miami game.
05:37So you can watch this on Apple TV.
05:40No, I know it's very popular.
05:41I just didn't.
05:42I don't know anything about it because I haven't watched an entire race.
05:45I had no idea it was only 90 minutes.
05:47It happens to be very entertaining, genuinely.
05:50Like when you dive deep into the mechanics behind the cars, what they do to build these cars to make
05:58them aerodynamic,
05:59the minuscule advantages that they put into it engineering-wise, it genuinely is really cool.
06:06And then there's obviously there's skill to it.
06:09When you should pit, when your tires have tread, and so on and so forth.
06:14Like, again, I dabble in F1.
06:17You watched the movie with Brad Pitt and Damson Idris.
06:20I saw the movie.
06:21That's all he's talking about.
06:23He watched the movie, Hawk.
06:24That's all he's talking about.
06:25They had like a control center in the movie.
06:27That was shocking to me.
06:29They have like scientists who are writing code.
06:32Yeah, no, it's crazy.
06:33I never saw a movie.
06:35I told you, I watched Drive to Survive, year one, the first season.
06:38It was all about Daniel Riccardi, the Australian, good-looking dude.
06:42I was all in.
06:44I was all in.
06:45And then come to find out, halfway through that season, he stinks.
06:48He's not even one of the best drivers.
06:50I'm like, wait.
06:51I attached myself to a bum, and then that's it.
06:54I was out.
06:55I was done.
06:57Well, everybody enjoy F1 weekend here in South Florida.
06:59Best drivers are on McLaren.
07:02All right, we got it.
07:03You've got Xavier Edwards' phone number, and you're a proud sponsor and supporter of McLaren.
07:12No, I'm not a sponsor.
07:13I'm going to get my vest on.
07:14Watch the next segment.
07:16Watch the next segment.
07:17I'm going to have my vest.
07:18Crowder's a big Lando Norris fan.
07:20Oh, I love Lando.
07:22Yeah.
07:23Defending champ.
07:24Come on.
07:24Yeah.
07:25And Pastranakis.
07:26I don't know his real name.
07:27Oscar Piastri.
07:29There we go.
07:29Oh, the Pastranaut?
07:32He looks way different than the Pastranaut.
07:34He looks way different than the Pastranaut.
