I never listened to this podcast but everytime i saw bits of it they are trashing Lando (they were complaining about Lando having his dad in the garage last week? But they are the one inviting Mama Piastri on their podcast 🙄)
Anyway, the way they were desperate for Gunther to agree with them and Guenther being like "i will not give you anything" makes me laugh 😅 Gunther is also right when he says that Max doesn't give a tit about that.

George is either going to be doting number 1 ( think Lando and Osc) or full Nico and I need it to be full Nico

i would argue that lando isn’t really a doting number 1 and lucks out from oscar being so chilled BUT i agree that i need full nico from george. putting in all that work and then seeing your TP all cwtched up, hand on waist, with some kid they’re getting to be your teammate. i can see the nico flame starting and i need it 🤣
 


Awww George is going to be like an older brother


I don't remember Max coming in - if anyone ever sees my memory please send it back - but I don't think there was such a hype about him was there? Thats my biggest worry for young Kimi - not so much his age as Max and proper Kimi came in to the sport young and were ok but the media around F1 is so much greater now and being quick is only half the battle it feels

I couldn't even get to the end of this clip - I'm not sure who these guys are - but yeh Gunther thankfully was not playing ball

there is the hype because Kimi is joint a top 4 team straight out of a one year at F2 after skipping F3 - don’t think that happened in ages

Max joined young but went to the junior team - and then back then wasn’t the media crazy time about F1 (or social media)

last time a rookie joined a big team was probably Lewis wasn't it at Macca....and that seemed to work out ok :ROFLMAO:
 
Man, I don't have a maternal bone in my body, but even I look at Kimi and I'm like 'that is a baby'...I know Ollie has a baby face too but he at least is a tall one. Kimi is literally only just 18, looks younger and looks tiny standing next to George. And going straight into Mercedes (Max obvious started F1 in the junior RB team) to fill the space vacated by a 7 time world champion?! That's literally insane.

I watched the last lap shootout of that F3 sprint with my bum cheeks clenched, I was so convinced someone was going to do something stupid at speed!
 
I still haven't watched Zaandvort, and have been to wrapped up in work, and reporting on about half a million Norwegian kroners (£40K ish), for a project, so I managed to fall asleep on the couch as soon as I was done yesterday.
I may or may not have almost forgotten Valtteris birthday, but I remembered it when I saw his calendar with the picture of him with a balloon. Gave him a call and said happy birthday😂

I have seen everything that has been happening, with Logan out, Colapinto in for the rest of the season and now also baby Kimi in Merc next year. Kid is going to have a lot of weight on his shoulders. And there's probably lots of other stuff I've not seen, but I feel like that are the most important ones? 😂

a lot of us do!! 🤗
had a chat with the youngest on our team last week and she mentioned her first computer in 2007 😳😩

speaking about young - good article comparing the Rockies in the past to Kimi

Mark Hughes: Antonelli's F1 debut is a world apart from Hamilton's

Very highly-rated rookie straight into top team - Kimi Antonelli at Mercedes in 2025 feels a lot like Lewis Hamilton at McLaren in 2007. But Hamilton was much better prepared

I mean, I have a love/hate relationship to the Red Flags but I listened to the whole thing and one of them especially is 100% on the Lando train. It's just podcast tit talk. Its easy to clip one bit to make it look like Lando hate.
