What exciting experience do the hosts share about Monaco?
Hello everybody and welcome back to the P1 Podcast live from Monaco.
You might be able to tell that either visually or maybe even on audio as well. We are here in Monaco. We're going to talk all about practice. We're going to give you a bit of an insight into what we've been up to as well over the last sort of 12 hours, even 24 to be fair. Yesterday was pretty chaotic as well. Tommy? You're in your favourite place, Monaco. How are you feeling?
Of course, I'm absolutely amazing. I can't believe the view we have. I can't believe we're on this super yacht. I can't believe I'm telling people we're on a super yacht. But we're on a super yacht with a Formula One car. Yes.
honestly right behind us yeah as you may well be able to tell with the livery even though it's not the same livery as what they're running this weekend at monaco that's the audi formula one car and big thanks to libertex right there they got us on this super yacht for the whole weekend uh to basically watch the action and have an unbelievable weekend and a big shout out to marios as well what a legend uh to give us a core memory i don't think i'll ever i mean Don't get me wrong, I feel entirely out of place the whole way through. It took me an hour to get a water because I was scared to ask someone. That's the kind of levels that we are, Tommy. We're not super yacht born.
We're not born for a super yacht, but we're having a great time nonetheless. And obviously being in Monaco is such an awesome place, being able to watch from the yacht as well. We were lucky enough to watch a bit of practice as well from the Audi garage, which was amazing, like a viewing platform. So we are just feeling like the luckiest Formula One fans in the world right now.
So let's begin with free practice one. I'm really happy to talk about Friday running at Monaco because Ferrari are turning up like crazy. We kind of thought they would. Leclerc was fastest ahead of Hamilton and Verstappen. But big stories, I suppose, from free practice one was a crash for Isaac Hadjar, who went into the wall in the final sector, the notorious, famous right-left chicane where you have the slow-mos of the one millimetre away from the wall, the brushings of the wall. But for Hadjar, firstly, obviously not ideal to be crashing. I know he was very happy in Free Practice 2 to be back up and running. But another mistake for Hadjar this year. But it was such a unique and bizarre way to have gone into the wall.
That's the thing that I took from it is usually it's you clip the inside you break the suspension and then you go straight over the curb and into the wall but this this felt like a little bit too much pace we'd heard from max verstappen earlier in the session that his tires were dead this was of course on the hard tires struggling with uh with just general grip and it felt like yeah the the rear just stepped out for hajar and into the wall he went
He did. I remember saying to you when we saw how he joined the wall, I go, I know exactly what's going to happen. He's going to clip the inside wall and go straight into the barrier, which is what we've seen from Max Verstappen, Charles Leclerc.
You did. You had to say it, didn't you? Yeah. It's true.
Yeah, but thanks for reminding me. All the best have done it. So it's happened to, you know, the best drivers on the grid. It's happened to a lot of them. But Hadjar flew around the corner, got wide and spun kind of into the corner, which we rarely see. And yeah, it was unfortunate for him. Thankfully, it's only practice because had that been FP3, I think Red Bull would be sweating a little bit because of how much, you know, we've seen people miss qualifying before for an FP3 crash.
indeed so the biggest takeaway I think for us that you sort of touched upon Tommy at the start was the fact that one of the experiences I hope that you guys will understand just how lucky we feel to be here and the experiences we're going to get over this weekend and something we were able to do today was basically go to the Audi pit garage we were above where the team were basically it's kind of like a viewing experience for Audi guests and we were able to have the headphones on and listen to the
