I love you, too.
Okay, I'm sorry. That's okay.
Can you see my feet in the shot? Nope. Okay, sweet.
I feel like my feet smell.
We go up to Asheville to hang out with my family.
I think they're doing a little better. They got the boil notice for water was just recently rescinded. So they should have drinkable water now. So I think they're getting back on their feet.
Yeah, I mean, I'm business side of this. Formula One is trying to expand more into America. So having an American car manufacturer brand is is good for them. They've been expanding their American audience for the past four or five years really successfully. They added the Las Vegas Grand Prix, which happens in Las Vegas with the cars racing on the strip.
That was a big part of that big investment there. And then this is a play for GM to get more recognition overseas. They're one of the largest car manufacturers in America, but overseas European international recognition isn't isn't as popular. So they're trying to get their name out there to get more car export sales.
Yeah, exactly. I mean, that's a lot of brands do that where they'll have the manufacturer support, but they'll put the name of kind of their luxury car brand on it. So Alpine is one that does that. I'm not sure who they're owned by, but Alpine is a French luxury car brand. They're a team in Formula One, but they're owned by a bigger manufacturer.
So I think Renault, I think they're owned by Renault. Um, so it's the same thing. GM, they take one of their nicer car brands, Cadillac, put that on there. But, um, so it'd be Cadillac racing. There's actually a lot of controversy. Getting this team into the sport was a real challenge. Um, a lot of other teams don't want another team because there's a prize pool.
And so the more teams there are, the more diluted that prize pool gets. So, um, There's a there's kind of a pushback against getting this team on there. And it ended up the Department of Justice ended up doing like an investigation about antitrust monopoly laws because they were blocking a team from getting in.
And then shortly after, they kind of reorganized the deal and and they got them in this this past week.
Yes, I like it.
So here's some bonus news. F1 has been making an F1 movie for this exact reason, Ryan, trying to get more people into the F1 ecosystem. Yes. They've been making a movie for the last year. It's going to be called Just F1. It is the director of the newest, that Top Gun Maverick. It's the same director. And they have been, for the past two years, since 2023, they've been on the grid with a car.
It's not, it's like a... It's a lower grade car that they've made look like an F1 car. And so like they've been going around like on the formation laps when all the cars are lining up. They're out there driving it on track to get footage. Just recently at the Las Vegas F1 race, they filmed a scene where they had the crash version of the car they brought on track.
They had their actor get out of the car and he's walking. There's all this smoke and they asked the crowd to react in the background like there was a big crash. So they've been filming the movie. At real F1 races. It's got Brad Pitt and some other big actors. That's cool. So we'll see how that turns out. It's supposed to be coming out in 2025. So hopefully that'll be sick.
The trailer is out. You can look. It's similar, you know, the way Maverick had those shots of the actors in the jets for like really flying the jets. They've got similar type of F1 shots of Brad Pitt and everything. And they were really at the track driving, driving past cars around the track. So I thought that was cool.
Yeah. F1's the most complex, right? It's like those cars are basically like airplanes upside down. They are so aerodynamic that, you know, an airplane uses lift to go up. F1 cars use lift to push themselves in the track, giving them insane amounts of grip and being able to go around corners like no other car.
Yeah, it's like the same thing.
That's part of it. He's an old retired racing driver who's come back to a new team. They needed an experience. So that's part of the story.
