What is the opening introduction and promotion for the P1 Live show?
Hello, everybody, and welcome back to the P1 Podcast with Matt and Tommy. Madrid, Madrid, quali, in the locker. We're ready to chat about it. The monumental
Madrid.
No, what? How quickly did you have to bring that up? It's not like commentary did it a thousand times.
Because it's burnt into my brain. It's
almost like they've been briefed, you will make this turn an iconic one. It will be mentioned at all times. We're ditching
Spa, so we need to make people forget about Eau Rouge and Radion. Oh,
hello. Special reference, special mention there. Usually you can't force it out of you. That just came naturally. Anyway. Yeah, go on. Let's talk about qualifying, shall we? But before we do, P1 Live show. Come along, please. tix.to forward slash P1 Live. 11th of November, Leeds. 12th of November, Cardiff. 14th of November, Manchester. 15th, Glasgow. 17th. Birmingham, and 18th... I was trying to do the numbers and I was like, was I counting? I can't remember. 18th, London. And if you think this is a chaotic thing that you listen to, then you'd better come to the P1 Live show because it's a thousand times more chaotic and we just have a lot of fun. The vibes are great. Games, things, coming on stage if you want to, questions, the works.
It's not just a boring podcast. Not that this podcast is boring, but we don't just sit down and natter and then say goodbye. So we'd love to see you. Come along, get some tickets. We are touring in November, as I mentioned there. Right, let's get into qualifying and begin with Q1. With the top six, bottom six, not the top six. The top six were not these people. The bottom six in Q1 were Sainz, Alonso, Perez, Bottas, Behrman and Stroll. God, imagine that was the top six. That would be quite the race. That would be a great race with
how difficult
it is to overtake. Exactly. Although I'm sure the top runners would find a way on these particular cars. But yes, those were the six that were knocked out. I think first and foremost, let's chat about Behrman, because, of course, Behrman did not set a time because he had a crash in free practice three, which was a big one. It was literally a couple of minutes away from the end of FP3. And he's had a massive crash turn 10, I think it was.
How do the hosts break down the Q1 results and the drivers eliminated?
And yeah, he said afterwards he didn't really feel like there was much going on with the car. Sort of watching the onboard, it did seem like it was quite twitchy before he ended up crashing. But the end result was that the team could not repair it in time because there was a lot of work to do and they had about two hours to turn it around. Even smaller of a window than usual because Free Practice 3... in a very sort of strange turn of events, actually got paused and they repaired the barrier. And then we didn't finish until maybe 20-ish minutes past when we should have. So even less time for Haas to repair the car. They did not manage it. And it's a shame because Oli Behrman and Haas in general looked like they actually could have competed somewhere near the top of the midfield.
Yeah, Ocon did a really solid job in that house compared to where they've been recently. And yeah, house were looking pretty good. So really gutting for Oli Behrman. If you're going to crash in any session, you don't want it to be FP3 and a big one because it is so close to qualifying and it puts a lot of pressure on the team to fix it. I am not the slightest bit surprised that he didn't go out there as soon as he was in the wall and you saw the damage, you knew he wasn't making qualifying and Yeah, really disappointing for Oli because it feels such a long time ago we're talking about him in such amazing light and what a great start to the season he had, but not going as well these days, which is a big shame.
Big shame indeed. Another driver that did not take part was Lance Stroll. So immediately into the next run of Q1 exits to make it to 200 at some point. 101 now, congratulations. Extending his lead, in fact. with that record so so Lance Stroll just doing goat things and then of course the inter-team battle of Williams with the fact Behrman wasn't taking part meant that there was an opportunity for one of the Williams to make it through and it was Albon by a matter of thousands I think it was five thousandths of a second that he ended up beating Carlos Sainz which is you know very very marginal you can't go oh Carlos is having a poor season after the
