What makes Baku the favorite F1 race of the year?
Hello all you wankers. What's
up, bankers?
Greetings, Venkas, Gunter, Baku, my favorite race of the year. What about you? Why is it your favorite race of the year? Because there's always carnage, Gunter. There's chaos, people crashing into walls. There's that big long straight, plenty of overtaking opportunities. It's just, you know, Oscar Piastri had his collapse there when Max Verstappen blew out his tires. Lewis left the magic on and George running into to Max Verstappen and they had their fight. And they have their fight. There's always something always goes There's always something always
goes down at Baku. Well, you have done your homework. Whoa, whoa, whoa. That was a good explanation why you like Baku. It always it's always crazy. I like back as well. Because i it's one of these race like which you which is unique. You know, you got everything and that that narrow piece, I mean it's pretty cool that one to watch. And uh middle of the city, the castle, which you see all the time on T V the Castle, because Matt obviously being a prince, likes castles, you know. The prince of podcasting likes the castle. More
like Nicholas Cage. I I I wanna own a bunch of them one day.
One day the day we come, and the first one to buy would be Baku, so you can watch the race from your castle. That's right.
That's right. Well, the ster first stop towards us getting a castle is selling out our live show in Austin, which is happening Saturday, October twenty-fourth. If you are not there, you are literally so lame. If you're gonna be in Austin, you better get your tickets. Nine PM at the Moody Theater, part of Austin City limits. We're doing a preview episode because it'll be right after qualifying. We're gonna be talking our shit. Be there. Link is in the description. Get your tickets right now. And and
contribute to the cast off Matt.
That's right. And contribute to to Matt's castle fund because Matt wants to own a castle one day, and this is the first step to getting there.

Oh fuck smash fuck smash buck on I'm gonna fucking style and I'm back from
And we're back. Okay, before we get into our predictions, Gunter, there's been some news in the Formula One World. I don't know if you've seen, but the 2027 calendar has come out. We're getting ten sprint races next
year. What are your thoughts on that? Fantastic. I love sprint races. I was always already in twenty-three. I was always on to Stefano. We need more sprint races. At least twelve. They got it to ten. So uh I I'm I'm all for sprint races makes the weekend so much more interesting. I continue to tell you guys FP ones and FP twos are not exciting. Keep on watching them because I don't want to be negative. I don't. So uh but anyway I love sprint races. I think makes the just the weekend better.
Even as a guy who ran a team You you didn't mind it?
No, I liked it. I mean there's action, you know. Uh you know, w when y even when you work there for a long period of time, is sitting there seeing a car going uh uh around the track collecting data, it doesn't it's not very exciting but I mean maybe the first year when you do it, the second year, the third year it's getting like, Wow, I could actually do something much more exciting than to watch collecting data, you know. In life.
Yeah, you can collect data during a sprint as well. But b but here's the thing. I I'm a fan of the sprint races as well. I love the sprints, but there's a lot of people talking, a lot of controversy that they're throwing a sprint into the Monaco weekend. Matt is up in arms. I am holding out my opinion because I like I like the idea of having two qualifyings at Monaco. What are your thoughts on the the worst track to pick? Pass having a sprint race.
I am with you there as well.
