I absolutely got the same.

Oh yeah.

You know, it's the cadence is the inflection is how much it means.

I think the authenticity, to be honest, Nelson, I feel like the way that you guys do it is the more, I would say the more modern way that the podcasts have, uh, have pulled, uh,

you know, the editorialization at the forefront way more than say my way of doing it, which is inherited essentially from the golden era of BBC broadcasters.

That's just the nature of, of how British sports commentary was defined by,

for a very long time.

I fully believe in facilitating the experts to bring the authority and the gravity of their opinions.

I think the audience want to hear from Jolyon Palmer first, David Coulthard first, they want to hear from Mark Webber first, they want to hear from James Hinchcliffe first.

when you get to a situation where it is potentially unfair, unsafe or, you know, getting used to a regulation set.

Yeah, I honestly... It's a bit ridiculous, but we had a lot of foregone conclusion races in 2023.

You can't help it if the best driver's got the best car and is a generational talent.

That's what happened.

But I'd come off air and I'd...
