Speaker 1: It is Jason Lauren Clint here as well, and guys,
Speaker 1: we're heading at Albert Park.
Speaker 2: We're going out today. I'm very excited. But of course
Speaker 2: the main event is on Sunday and one of the
Speaker 2: favorites is our Melbourne boy, Oscar Piastre. His beautiful mum
Speaker 2: Nicole is a friend of the show and she joins
Speaker 2: us this morning.
Speaker 3: Good morning, Good morning, guys.
Speaker 4: Are you nervous?
Speaker 1: How are we feeling a bit of a mix.
Speaker 5: Of nervous nerves excitement? Yeah, yeah, a bit of a mix.
Speaker 2: It must be exciting though, having the Formula one in Melbourne.
Speaker 3: Oscar is a Melbourne boy.
Speaker 2: It must be nice being on a home track and
Speaker 2: you've got all your family around and your friends.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is. It's a very different feel
Speaker 5: going to the race that's a home race.
Speaker 4: How many people ask you for tickets, Nicole?
Speaker 5: About twenty thousand.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: When you get to spend time with your boy, you
Speaker 1: would witness fans coming up and greeting him, and sometimes
Speaker 1: I'm sure they can say some random things. Are you
Speaker 1: Are you aware of what our own Lauren Philip shouted
Speaker 1: out to your son on a road here in Melbourne
Speaker 1: earlier in the week.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know I am because.
Speaker 3: I was in the car.
Speaker 4: I listened to you guys in Oh, okay, thank you,
Speaker 4: We've got one.
Speaker 5: And I was in the car. This is funny. I
Speaker 5: was in the car with with Oscar's girlfriend Lily. Yep,
Speaker 5: when Lauren was telling this story. So Lily was in
Speaker 5: the and Lily was in the car with Lauren when
Speaker 5: she saw Oscar right oh, and so Lily's like.
Speaker 3: Wait is that?
Speaker 5: She's like, yeah, I was there.
Speaker 2: Happened. Lily and Oscar were in the car and I
Speaker 2: pulled up next to them at the traffic lights. I've
Speaker 2: never met Oscar, but in a moment of confidence where
Speaker 2: I got way to him here, I wound the window down.
Speaker 1: And what did you shout, Lauren?
Speaker 3: I liked your bird a grill and I know your mom.
Speaker 4: It was?
Speaker 3: Did she say it was as I felt?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: No, no she didn't.
Speaker 5: You know what what's unfortunate for you, Lauren is that
Speaker 5: Oscar's awkward at the best of times. So I could
Speaker 5: have done that to him, and the look he would
Speaker 5: have given me if I was sitting in the car
Speaker 5: beside him would have been just as awkward as the
Speaker 5: look he gave you.
Speaker 3: No, he was very friendly.
Speaker 2: He was very friendly, but I could tell when I
Speaker 2: first went down the window he was like, Oh no,
Speaker 2: who's this.
Speaker 5: He's got this, you know, he's got this air of this,
Speaker 5: this kind of apprehension when anyone now approaches him because
Speaker 5: he's not sure what he's getting.
Speaker 4: So this must be a heavy duty week for him,
Speaker 4: being his home grand prix. Like how much stuff does
Speaker 4: he need to go to? And and how does he
Speaker 4: I mean, does he like it? Because it's all you know,
Speaker 4: F one is about driving a car, but it's also
Speaker 4: about marketability and you know, being part of the brand.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I think he's naturally an introvert, so
Speaker 5: that's a little bit challenging.
Speaker 4: But that's also quiet. That's what makes him so lovable.
Speaker 5: I reckon, Yeah, Yeah, he's Yeah, he's pretty quiet. I
Speaker 5: think that the home crowd. He loves coming home, and
Speaker 5: he loves the home crowd, so I think he quite
Speaker 5: you know, I think he really enjoys getting in amongst it,
Speaker 5: and probably more enjoys being around the fans rather than
Speaker 5: the corporate stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the whole of them, Like you've got the
Speaker 3: whole country on his side.
Speaker 2: Seriously, I've never seen so many McLaren fans in my life.
Speaker 1: Do you get much time with him while he's here,
Speaker 1: Like does he come home for a little home cook
Speaker 1: meal or anything? He does?
Speaker 5: But it's really like he was around on Sunday, but
Speaker 5: I think he was told just to get out of
Speaker 5: the hotel and stay awake, so he chose to come
Speaker 5: to our place.
Speaker 3: I saw him go. You know you sorry, I think
Speaker 3: you sawry Monday or Monday? Sorry was it's a long weekend.
Speaker 3: It felt like a Sunday, you know, Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're right, it was a public holiday. He does
Speaker 5: put in a request. He's got this. I mean, I'm
Speaker 5: not very good cook, but he does like my No, yeah,
Speaker 5: go to Grier. He likes my pastor and and he
Speaker 5: likes more than sweet things like yes I can bake
Speaker 5: so gone to dumplings.
Speaker 2: Yeah stop it, un dumpling now, Nicole, your mum also
Speaker 2: oscars Nan.
Speaker 3: We all went to the Grand Prix.
Speaker 2: Grandma, grandma, We all went to the Grand Prix together
Speaker 2: last year, and she was she bakes rumble or makes rumbles.
Speaker 3: And takes run down to the mclarantine. Will she I'm learning, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: Will she do that again this year? Drop it down
Speaker 3: for them all.
Speaker 5: Yeah, she's got hundreds of them, so this morning we'll
Speaker 5: drop them in when we to the track.
Speaker 4: Hang on, can't be get the team lick it up.
Speaker 5: No, they're not rumballs that were there. They're rumballs without
Speaker 5: the rum. But we can't really call them brown just
Speaker 5: brown balls.
Speaker 4: We can't now, Nicle.
Speaker 1: We love you boy, And I know he is very
Speaker 1: skilled behind the wheel, but surely he must suck at something.
Speaker 3: Where anything is not good at.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's really bad at.
Speaker 3: Cooking eggs.
Speaker 5: But you know what's funny is when he was when
Speaker 5: he got locked down with us and his sisters, his
Speaker 5: three sisters taught him how to to cook eggs and
Speaker 5: they're really really good at it. And then he went
Speaker 5: back when he went back overseas with his team Prema
Speaker 5: that he was driving with, they did like a team
Speaker 5: challenge with cooking giggs and they filmed it and they
Speaker 5: put it on YouTube and they were sitting there screaming
Speaker 5: at the screen because everything they told him not to
Speaker 5: do it or.
Speaker 4: In the in the front everything.
Speaker 5: Give him an egg and he will annihilate it.
Speaker 3: Can he cook anything else?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 5: He can, he can. He can cook his He does
Speaker 5: like cooking, and he can cook some good things.
Speaker 2: But eggs.
