1 00:00:06,667 --> 00:00:10,387 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Weekend Sport podcast with Jason Vine 2 00:00:10,707 --> 00:00:11,747 Speaker 1: from News Talk zed B. 3 00:00:12,627 --> 00:00:17,267 Speaker 2: Willam Lawson has qualified thirteenth for the Spanish Formula One 4 00:00:17,347 --> 00:00:21,307 Speaker 2: Grand Prix. He was eliminated in the second qualifying session. 5 00:00:21,747 --> 00:00:24,747 Speaker 3: See your Larson Candell Well. Losson's on a decent lap here. 6 00:00:24,747 --> 00:00:26,707 Speaker 4: This could be two racing balls in the top ten 7 00:00:26,747 --> 00:00:28,827 Speaker 4: as he crosses the line though lost a bit of 8 00:00:28,867 --> 00:00:32,107 Speaker 4: time in that final sector only p thirteen. 9 00:00:32,627 --> 00:00:36,907 Speaker 2: So McLaren's Oscar Piastre grabbing pole position, his fourth pole 10 00:00:37,067 --> 00:00:40,227 Speaker 2: of the season, ahead of his teammate Lando Norris defending 11 00:00:40,267 --> 00:00:43,267 Speaker 2: champion Red Bull driver Max for Stappen. We'll start from 12 00:00:43,387 --> 00:00:48,027 Speaker 2: third on the grid Mercedes George Russell qualifying fourth. Let's 13 00:00:48,027 --> 00:00:50,747 Speaker 2: get you to Spain with highly respected Formula One journalist 14 00:00:50,827 --> 00:00:54,627 Speaker 2: and broadcaster Chris Medland. Chris can be start with Liam Lawson. 15 00:00:54,707 --> 00:00:57,467 Speaker 2: It was very fast in practice. So what happened to 16 00:00:57,547 --> 00:00:58,987 Speaker 2: him and qualifying. 17 00:00:59,387 --> 00:01:00,747 Speaker 3: Yeah, it didn't quite come together. 18 00:01:00,747 --> 00:01:03,187 Speaker 4: And it's always tricky when you're watching practice about whether 19 00:01:03,667 --> 00:01:06,587 Speaker 4: you're seeing everything from every driver every team, and certain 20 00:01:06,587 --> 00:01:08,267 Speaker 4: teams do turn the wick up a little bit more. 21 00:01:08,307 --> 00:01:11,107 Speaker 4: When we get into qualifying with Liam, I think he 22 00:01:11,227 --> 00:01:14,067 Speaker 4: just didn't quite put the lap together. There's some very 23 00:01:14,107 --> 00:01:16,507 Speaker 4: sensitive tires we have here in Barcelona, and it's been 24 00:01:16,627 --> 00:01:19,707 Speaker 4: very very hot, so it's so hot that the tires 25 00:01:19,707 --> 00:01:23,227 Speaker 4: you're using over just one qualifying lap start to overheat 26 00:01:23,267 --> 00:01:25,067 Speaker 4: and you lose grip and performance towards the end of 27 00:01:25,067 --> 00:01:27,227 Speaker 4: that lap. So if you can't manage the temperage as 28 00:01:27,267 --> 00:01:29,987 Speaker 4: well enough, you just lose lap time very very easily. 29 00:01:30,027 --> 00:01:31,507 Speaker 3: And it just got away from Lim a little bit. 30 00:01:31,547 --> 00:01:35,067 Speaker 4: But it was also a massively competitive session and if 31 00:01:35,067 --> 00:01:36,707 Speaker 4: he didn't hook it up at all times, you didn't 32 00:01:36,707 --> 00:01:38,947 Speaker 4: get all the way through. But as you say, he'd 33 00:01:38,987 --> 00:01:41,387 Speaker 4: shown he had the pace in the practice session, so 34 00:01:41,427 --> 00:01:43,067 Speaker 4: he was a little bit disappointed not to make it 35 00:01:43,067 --> 00:01:43,947 Speaker 4: through the Q three. 36 00:01:44,147 --> 00:01:48,427 Speaker 2: He also, I see, registered his fastest lap in his 37 00:01:48,587 --> 00:01:52,867 Speaker 2: final qualifying LP, so he's going fast enough. Isn't it 38 00:01:52,907 --> 00:01:57,227 Speaker 2: something that will encourage him ahead of the race itself. Yeah. 39 00:01:57,307 --> 00:02:00,587 Speaker 4: I think one thing that's been quite encouraging, even as 40 00:02:00,627 --> 00:02:02,427 Speaker 4: someone watching Lim has been the fact that he says 41 00:02:02,467 --> 00:02:04,307 Speaker 4: his confidence has not taken a hit from the yearies 42 00:02:04,347 --> 00:02:06,347 Speaker 4: had yet and he's just not always had the result 43 00:02:06,507 --> 00:02:09,107 Speaker 4: he thought he's capable of getting, but he's had the 44 00:02:09,147 --> 00:02:10,987 Speaker 4: pace in there, and he's had the confidence in the car. 45 00:02:11,307 --> 00:02:12,347 Speaker 3: Well, we saw it in Monaco. 46 00:02:12,387 --> 00:02:14,227 Speaker 4: He put it all together on the track last weekend 47 00:02:14,387 --> 00:02:16,187 Speaker 4: where you have to put it together, where you have 48 00:02:16,267 --> 00:02:19,227 Speaker 4: to be confident, where you can't afford any mistakes, and 49 00:02:19,307 --> 00:02:21,467 Speaker 4: that really, I think convinced a lot of people that yeah, 50 00:02:21,467 --> 00:02:23,947 Speaker 4: that's all in there, just needs to bring it out consistently, 51 00:02:24,307 --> 00:02:26,707 Speaker 4: and he had continued to do that going through this 52 00:02:26,787 --> 00:02:29,507 Speaker 4: weekend up until qualifying. So that's why I think he's 53 00:02:29,507 --> 00:02:32,307 Speaker 4: actually going to be more frustrated that when it really mattered, 54 00:02:32,747 --> 00:02:34,227 Speaker 4: when he really wanted to get through the Q three, 55 00:02:34,267 --> 00:02:35,987 Speaker 4: he didn't quite get the same nap time as his 56 00:02:35,987 --> 00:02:39,147 Speaker 4: teammate Isaac Hagya got out the car. But it still 57 00:02:39,267 --> 00:02:42,067 Speaker 4: was encouraging that that potential was there for him. So 58 00:02:42,387 --> 00:02:44,667 Speaker 4: he will know that he's able to move forward in 59 00:02:44,707 --> 00:02:46,907 Speaker 4: the race as well because the Racing Bulls car has 60 00:02:46,907 --> 00:02:48,027 Speaker 4: been competitive all season. 61 00:02:48,107 --> 00:02:50,827 Speaker 2: Yeah, and promisingly as well. It's not like Monica is 62 00:02:50,827 --> 00:02:53,547 Speaker 2: that there are places to pass in Barcelona. There are 63 00:02:53,547 --> 00:02:57,427 Speaker 2: two drag reduction system zones as well. How do you 64 00:02:57,547 --> 00:03:01,067 Speaker 2: a seious evaluate Liam's ability to move up from thirteenth 65 00:03:01,187 --> 00:03:01,787 Speaker 2: during the race. 66 00:03:02,787 --> 00:03:04,067 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he's got every chance. 67 00:03:04,107 --> 00:03:05,787 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, we've talked about it before where 68 00:03:05,787 --> 00:03:07,867 Speaker 4: Liam is more than happy to get his elbows out 69 00:03:07,867 --> 00:03:09,747 Speaker 4: if he's feeling confident and there's a pass to be made, 70 00:03:09,787 --> 00:03:11,547 Speaker 4: and he will need to do that around here. But 71 00:03:12,067 --> 00:03:13,587 Speaker 4: you can make a lot of positions at the start. 72 00:03:13,627 --> 00:03:15,307 Speaker 4: You can also get caught up in incidence there. So 73 00:03:15,347 --> 00:03:17,667 Speaker 4: the main thing there is getting through it cleanly. But 74 00:03:17,827 --> 00:03:19,547 Speaker 4: it looks like strategically it might be a bit of 75 00:03:19,587 --> 00:03:22,307 Speaker 4: a tricky race as well, some of the more boring races. 76 00:03:22,347 --> 00:03:24,147 Speaker 4: If anyone's been watching and thought there hasn't been a 77 00:03:24,187 --> 00:03:26,027 Speaker 4: lot of action in any Grand Prix at certain times 78 00:03:26,027 --> 00:03:28,667 Speaker 4: this year have been just one pit stop. Well, it 79 00:03:28,707 --> 00:03:30,827 Speaker 4: looks like there'll be at least two tomorrow with different 80 00:03:30,827 --> 00:03:33,467 Speaker 4: strategies playing out because as I said, the tires have 81 00:03:33,467 --> 00:03:34,027 Speaker 4: been overheating. 82 00:03:34,067 --> 00:03:35,147 Speaker 3: It's been very hot. 83 00:03:35,467 --> 00:03:37,547 Speaker 4: That gives you more potential as well to move forward, 84 00:03:37,627 --> 00:03:40,147 Speaker 4: not only by making moves on track, but strategically with 85 00:03:40,187 --> 00:03:42,347 Speaker 4: the timing of your pit stops, the tires you're running on, 86 00:03:42,787 --> 00:03:44,627 Speaker 4: and the pace you can be doing at different points 87 00:03:44,667 --> 00:03:46,507 Speaker 4: in the race. So I think there's a lot of 88 00:03:46,547 --> 00:03:49,267 Speaker 4: opportunities for him and if he keeps it clean, gets 89 00:03:49,307 --> 00:03:51,387 Speaker 4: a good solid start and the team as well get 90 00:03:51,387 --> 00:03:53,587 Speaker 4: the strategy right, he's got every chance to still picking 91 00:03:53,667 --> 00:03:54,147 Speaker 4: up a points or. 92 00:03:54,107 --> 00:03:56,227 Speaker 2: Two on the front of the gread oscar Pistree and 93 00:03:56,307 --> 00:03:59,947 Speaker 2: Lando Norris one two for McLaren. How much faster Chris 94 00:03:59,987 --> 00:04:02,987 Speaker 2: and your assessment are McLaren than anybody else in terms 95 00:04:02,987 --> 00:04:03,707 Speaker 2: of their cars. 96 00:04:05,027 --> 00:04:07,787 Speaker 4: It's a tricky and once that I will admit, because 97 00:04:08,067 --> 00:04:12,187 Speaker 4: over one lap we see it in every qualifying session essentially, 98 00:04:12,227 --> 00:04:14,427 Speaker 4: and it's no more than a quarter of a second 99 00:04:14,707 --> 00:04:16,987 Speaker 4: at at the tracks that they are best at and 100 00:04:17,027 --> 00:04:20,107 Speaker 4: others are not so good at. But the average qualifying 101 00:04:20,147 --> 00:04:24,027 Speaker 4: margin between first and second before today was less than 102 00:04:24,067 --> 00:04:26,107 Speaker 4: a tenth of a second. Today PS three was two 103 00:04:26,147 --> 00:04:28,307 Speaker 4: tenths quicker than the Norris. But it's not always been 104 00:04:28,347 --> 00:04:30,467 Speaker 4: between the two McLaren drivers either. We've had George Russell 105 00:04:30,547 --> 00:04:33,267 Speaker 4: up there, Max of Staffan has three poles. It's very 106 00:04:33,307 --> 00:04:35,907 Speaker 4: close on raw pace over one lap. The McLaren strength 107 00:04:36,227 --> 00:04:38,027 Speaker 4: is being able to go close to that raw pace 108 00:04:38,187 --> 00:04:40,827 Speaker 4: over a race distance and not ruin their tires, not 109 00:04:40,907 --> 00:04:43,307 Speaker 4: burn them up, not wear them out too quickly, so 110 00:04:43,307 --> 00:04:46,027 Speaker 4: they keep that pace for longer and that advantage opens 111 00:04:46,107 --> 00:04:48,387 Speaker 4: up over grown pre distance, and I think when they're 112 00:04:48,387 --> 00:04:51,187 Speaker 4: somewhere that they're really comfortable and confident, that's like a 113 00:04:51,227 --> 00:04:54,947 Speaker 4: half a second advantage that they've got. So it fluctuates 114 00:04:54,987 --> 00:04:57,427 Speaker 4: trac to track depending on the characteristics of the circuit, 115 00:04:57,507 --> 00:04:59,707 Speaker 4: whether it suits the car they have or suits some 116 00:04:59,747 --> 00:05:01,827 Speaker 4: of their rivals. But the one thing we have seen 117 00:05:01,907 --> 00:05:04,387 Speaker 4: is that everywhere we go they have a car capable 118 00:05:04,387 --> 00:05:06,987 Speaker 4: of winning races for every other team much more up 119 00:05:07,027 --> 00:05:07,387 Speaker 4: and down. 120 00:05:07,947 --> 00:05:10,347 Speaker 2: And I'll say you, twenty four of thirty four Spanish 121 00:05:10,387 --> 00:05:13,787 Speaker 2: Grand Priise at this trek have been won by the Puls, 122 00:05:14,067 --> 00:05:17,267 Speaker 2: so I guess that gives PS three an historical advantage. Anyway, 123 00:05:17,547 --> 00:05:20,187 Speaker 2: how do you avalue add his ability to win it 124 00:05:20,227 --> 00:05:21,387 Speaker 2: from the front of the grid. 125 00:05:22,067 --> 00:05:24,667 Speaker 4: Well, certainly he's got the ability, and he does have 126 00:05:25,187 --> 00:05:27,147 Speaker 4: the quickest car on the grid right now, so starting 127 00:05:27,147 --> 00:05:29,667 Speaker 4: from P one, it's everything you'd ask for. But at 128 00:05:29,667 --> 00:05:31,347 Speaker 4: the same time, this is a track where as you 129 00:05:31,467 --> 00:05:35,187 Speaker 4: mentioned earlier, you can overtake certainly a lot easier than Monaco, 130 00:05:35,307 --> 00:05:37,507 Speaker 4: but the start is crucial because we've seen it a 131 00:05:37,547 --> 00:05:39,347 Speaker 4: couple of times, and we actually saw it last year. 132 00:05:39,747 --> 00:05:42,307 Speaker 4: Cars starting on a second row have a good chance 133 00:05:42,347 --> 00:05:43,707 Speaker 4: of getting into the lead at the start. 134 00:05:44,187 --> 00:05:45,787 Speaker 3: You get a long run to turn one. 135 00:05:45,827 --> 00:05:48,707 Speaker 4: Here there's a long period of accelerating up to fall 136 00:05:48,747 --> 00:05:50,587 Speaker 4: through Otto before hating the breaks through the first corner, 137 00:05:50,747 --> 00:05:52,987 Speaker 4: so you get a big slipstream effect and the cars 138 00:05:52,987 --> 00:05:55,867 Speaker 4: in third and fourth directly behind the front row get 139 00:05:55,907 --> 00:05:57,427 Speaker 4: a good toe and that can give them a sling 140 00:05:57,467 --> 00:05:59,107 Speaker 4: shot to try and make a move. And George Russell 141 00:05:59,147 --> 00:06:01,347 Speaker 4: went from fourth to first at the start last year 142 00:06:01,667 --> 00:06:04,827 Speaker 4: and George Russell is starting fourth again tomorrow, so that's 143 00:06:04,827 --> 00:06:07,387 Speaker 4: going to be exciting. Max was stappening as well, always 144 00:06:07,427 --> 00:06:09,187 Speaker 4: a threat. If he gets a sniff at the start, 145 00:06:09,267 --> 00:06:11,107 Speaker 4: he'll go for it. We saw it in IMMLA where 146 00:06:11,187 --> 00:06:13,227 Speaker 4: Vestafton was in a position where really he shouldn't have 147 00:06:13,267 --> 00:06:15,227 Speaker 4: been challenging for the lead at term one and he 148 00:06:15,267 --> 00:06:17,227 Speaker 4: found a way to overtake Oscar and take the lead 149 00:06:17,267 --> 00:06:19,067 Speaker 4: and he won that race. So I don't think it's 150 00:06:19,067 --> 00:06:22,707 Speaker 4: a foregone conclusion, but you're right statistically and historically he's 151 00:06:22,747 --> 00:06:24,507 Speaker 4: in the best place. I just don't think this is 152 00:06:24,587 --> 00:06:26,587 Speaker 4: quite the certainty it used to be around here, all. 153 00:06:26,547 --> 00:06:29,387 Speaker 2: Right, And they're only being nineteen cars and the racers. 154 00:06:29,387 --> 00:06:31,187 Speaker 2: I understand it. You'll be able to film me in here. 155 00:06:31,627 --> 00:06:36,107 Speaker 2: Lance stroll Eston, Madden's driver won't compete. What's the story here? 156 00:06:37,187 --> 00:06:39,347 Speaker 4: Yeah, this was a big shock actually, and it's quite 157 00:06:39,347 --> 00:06:41,147 Speaker 4: a funny one. Just before I've spoken to you that 158 00:06:41,187 --> 00:06:43,627 Speaker 4: the news dropped and you might be able to hear 159 00:06:43,627 --> 00:06:46,107 Speaker 4: in the background, I'm out grabbing a late bite to 160 00:06:46,107 --> 00:06:47,867 Speaker 4: eat in the middle of Barcelona and suddenly everyone's on 161 00:06:47,867 --> 00:06:52,027 Speaker 4: their mobile phones finding stories. Because Lance took part in qualifying. 162 00:06:52,027 --> 00:06:53,747 Speaker 4: He got up the car and didn't get weighed, so 163 00:06:53,787 --> 00:06:56,147 Speaker 4: he was in trouble for not going to the waybridge 164 00:06:56,187 --> 00:06:57,587 Speaker 4: to do all of the checks that you have to 165 00:06:57,587 --> 00:06:59,507 Speaker 4: do with the governing body, and he'd been summoned to 166 00:06:59,547 --> 00:07:02,347 Speaker 4: the stewards. And I saw that that hearing got delayed 167 00:07:02,827 --> 00:07:05,347 Speaker 4: and the steward said it was due to unforeseen circumstances. 168 00:07:05,387 --> 00:07:07,067 Speaker 4: So something was going on, but we didn't know what. 169 00:07:07,627 --> 00:07:09,227 Speaker 4: And then it turned out it was because he's been 170 00:07:09,267 --> 00:07:12,067 Speaker 4: in discomfort with his hands and his wrist and he's 171 00:07:12,067 --> 00:07:14,267 Speaker 4: been in pain over the last six weeks. Now for 172 00:07:14,307 --> 00:07:16,907 Speaker 4: anyone who doesn't know, and you do well to remember this, 173 00:07:16,947 --> 00:07:20,067 Speaker 4: but Lancetrell had a cycling accident two years ago in 174 00:07:20,067 --> 00:07:22,787 Speaker 4: pre season, broke both of his wrists. He had to 175 00:07:22,827 --> 00:07:24,747 Speaker 4: have surgery on them. He also broke a toe in 176 00:07:24,787 --> 00:07:27,947 Speaker 4: that but he came back and raced very quickly, and 177 00:07:28,107 --> 00:07:30,587 Speaker 4: he had some very good surgery. But the team seemed 178 00:07:30,627 --> 00:07:32,627 Speaker 4: to think the pain he now has is related to 179 00:07:32,667 --> 00:07:34,987 Speaker 4: the procedures that were done in twenty twenty three, so 180 00:07:35,027 --> 00:07:36,987 Speaker 4: he's going to go to another proscedure to try and 181 00:07:37,027 --> 00:07:39,467 Speaker 4: rectify it as soon as possible. So they've pulled him 182 00:07:39,467 --> 00:07:41,787 Speaker 4: out of this race on medical grounds. I assume that 183 00:07:41,827 --> 00:07:43,987 Speaker 4: means tomorrow or Monday he'll be going through some sort 184 00:07:44,027 --> 00:07:46,547 Speaker 4: of surgery or medical procedure to try and get him 185 00:07:46,547 --> 00:07:48,787 Speaker 4: fit as quickly as possible. The challenge there is the 186 00:07:48,787 --> 00:07:50,267 Speaker 4: next race is in two weeks time and it's his 187 00:07:50,267 --> 00:07:52,747 Speaker 4: home Grand Prix in Montreal, so I don't know at 188 00:07:52,747 --> 00:07:55,227 Speaker 4: this point total speculation whether he'll be fit for that. 189 00:07:55,947 --> 00:07:58,107 Speaker 4: Aston Martin can replace him in the future, but they 190 00:07:58,147 --> 00:08:00,427 Speaker 4: can't do that this weekend because you have to qualify 191 00:08:00,427 --> 00:08:03,347 Speaker 4: the car in order to race it. So because Lance 192 00:08:03,347 --> 00:08:06,467 Speaker 4: took part in qualifying, therefore only he can race if 193 00:08:06,467 --> 00:08:07,907 Speaker 4: he's withdrawn they can't put anywhere else in. 194 00:08:08,107 --> 00:08:10,987 Speaker 2: All right, nice and warm in Barcelona, is it? 195 00:08:11,067 --> 00:08:11,267 Speaker 3: Chris? 196 00:08:11,307 --> 00:08:12,947 Speaker 2: You got the shorts on, mate, No need for a 197 00:08:13,027 --> 00:08:14,307 Speaker 2: jacket tonight you. 198 00:08:14,987 --> 00:08:16,947 Speaker 3: No need for a jacket. But I'm always trousers. 199 00:08:16,947 --> 00:08:18,907 Speaker 4: I'm all professional when I've been working, so it's always 200 00:08:18,947 --> 00:08:19,987 Speaker 4: the long trousers are out. 201 00:08:20,347 --> 00:08:21,027 Speaker 3: But no, you're right. 202 00:08:21,067 --> 00:08:23,667 Speaker 4: It's a thin polo and nothing else and still pretty 203 00:08:23,667 --> 00:08:25,747 Speaker 4: toasty for a brit abroad. So it's been it's been 204 00:08:25,827 --> 00:08:28,307 Speaker 4: nice in that sense, but yeah it'll be It'll be 205 00:08:28,347 --> 00:08:30,067 Speaker 4: hot one tomorrow and that'd be a challenge for the drivers, 206 00:08:30,067 --> 00:08:30,787 Speaker 4: but fun for us. 207 00:08:30,907 --> 00:08:31,147 Speaker 3: Chris. 208 00:08:31,187 --> 00:08:34,427 Speaker 2: You expertise and analysis greatly appreciated. Mate. Thanks for attacking 209 00:08:34,467 --> 00:08:35,947 Speaker 2: the time to join us across New Zealand. 210 00:08:36,387 --> 00:08:37,427 Speaker 3: No worries, thanks for having me on. 211 00:08:37,507 --> 00:08:39,387 Speaker 2: No, thanks for joining us, Chris, Chris Midland there from 212 00:08:39,427 --> 00:08:43,987 Speaker 2: Barcelona where Oscar Pastri and Lando Norris. The McLaren drivers 213 00:08:43,987 --> 00:08:47,387 Speaker 2: will start on the front two positions on the starting grid. 214 00:08:47,427 --> 00:08:52,347 Speaker 2: Liam Lawson in thirteenth position, his teammate at racing balls, 215 00:08:52,387 --> 00:08:55,707 Speaker 2: Isaac Hadgjar ninth on the grid, Max for step and 216 00:08:55,747 --> 00:08:58,867 Speaker 2: his third George Russell fourth. Yuki Sonoda, the second of 217 00:08:58,907 --> 00:09:02,627 Speaker 2: the Red Bull Drivers was twentieth and last in qualifying, 218 00:09:02,627 --> 00:09:05,227 Speaker 2: but we'll move up a place due to the withdrawal 219 00:09:05,227 --> 00:09:08,467 Speaker 2: of Lance Stroll. As you just heard Chris Midland outline, 220 00:09:08,507 --> 00:09:12,387 Speaker 2: there a troubled wrist or hand injury for Lant's Stroll, 221 00:09:12,667 --> 00:09:14,107 Speaker 2: so he will not be on the grid and they 222 00:09:14,107 --> 00:09:18,067 Speaker 2: can't bring anybody else in Aston Martin because you have 223 00:09:18,147 --> 00:09:21,387 Speaker 2: to be in qualifying in order to race the race itself. 224 00:09:22,027 --> 00:09:24,387 Speaker 2: He can be replaced for the next race if that's 225 00:09:25,067 --> 00:09:28,147 Speaker 2: what is required, but not for this one. So Fernando 226 00:09:28,147 --> 00:09:30,667 Speaker 2: Alonso will be the only Aston Martin driver on the 227 00:09:30,667 --> 00:09:34,987 Speaker 2: grid when that race is underway around one o'clock tomorrow morning. 228 00:09:35,067 --> 00:09:38,027 Speaker 2: From memory, I think that's the start time. Let me 229 00:09:38,107 --> 00:09:41,427 Speaker 2: just check exactly here one o'clock tomorrow morning. The Spanish 230 00:09:41,427 --> 00:09:44,227 Speaker 2: Grand Prix and Barcelona. Plenty of places to pass on 231 00:09:44,227 --> 00:09:47,627 Speaker 2: this racetrack compared to Monico where there's basically nowhere to pass. 232 00:09:48,187 --> 00:09:52,147 Speaker 2: So if Liam Lawson can and the racing terminology get 233 00:09:52,147 --> 00:09:54,467 Speaker 2: his elbows out, then who knows, maybe he can move 234 00:09:54,547 --> 00:09:57,067 Speaker 2: up the field a little bit at the Spanish Grand Prix. 235 00:09:57,827 --> 00:10:01,027 Speaker 1: For more from Weekend Sport with Jason Fine, listen live 236 00:10:01,107 --> 00:10:04,427 Speaker 1: to news talk zed B weekends from midday, or follow 237 00:10:04,467 --> 00:10:06,067 Speaker 1: the podcast on iHeartRadio
