The Grateful Eight

Dirty Side of the Track

“Send us a Hey Now!”

We are still in the F1 off season but at least we are in February and car reveals happen this month!

Talking of reveals then we are at the end of round one of the February F1 Fantasticness bracket and have the list of the eight liveries (almost) that will be progressing to the second round.

Did your favorite make it through? Listen to find out.
We are also joined by listener Ben.
Ben takes a run at both the 100 Seconds of DRS and the quiz, Who wants to host the Dirty Side.
In between we chat about his F1 origin story.
It was a great chat and we won't give anything away other than to say we think you're in for a real treat.
The running order of this episode is:

1) News & Social

2) Brian's Video Vault

• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1lXumH3gFA. Behind the Scenes: Yuki Tsunoda Drives a Honda IndyCar. Honda Racing US channel. 7 mins. Was fun to see - esp as some of the similarities are discussed from Indy to F1.
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAw_G3SF6Fk. Valtteri Bottas opens up on his role at Mercedes this season. Sky Sports F1. 5 mins. Liked this one - felt like he has hope for a seat back on the grid at some point.
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdKu3RjUfFk. Lewis Hamilton's First Days In Ferrari - Behind The Scenes. Ferrari channel. 9 mins. How many hands can one man shake? And if they are not filmed, do they apparently not count?
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCu6cnDpRrQ. Lando Norris: A Day in the Life with Hilton. Hilton channel. 13 mins. WAY TOO LONG of an advert. If you like Lando or Hilton or men putting a bathrobe on top of their clothes and then laying in a tub with no water, check it out.

3) A chat with Ben

4) February Fantasticness - Round 1 update

• We review round one of the livery bracket
