1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 1: Jason Pine. Hello, Andrew, we're a busy man. You're at 2 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 1: you're at the sailing and you also called the elk 3 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: in their sea game. 4 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean good to. It's good to get 5 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,399 Speaker 2: the vibe of a city. I reckon and you're so right. 6 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 2: You know, Auckland over the weekend just felt like it 7 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 2: just felt like I had a vibe about it. Absolutely 8 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:18,760 Speaker 2: loved it. 9 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 1: Now, I don't want to be a you know, and 10 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to be negative radio host guy. But 11 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: was this our GP course too short? 12 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 2: Well? I guess if you flip it, you'll say, well, actually, 13 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 2: if it was longer, they wouldn't have got eight races 14 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 2: in which they did four fleet racers Saturday, three fleet 15 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: races yesterday and a final. So you certainly got your 16 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 2: money's worth, your bang for your buck if you paid 17 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 2: for it. Typically it's three fleet racers on the Saturday, 18 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 2: two more on the Sunday, and then a final that's 19 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 2: on a longer course. There's a broadcast window of ninety minutes. 20 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 2: They have to fit everything into that. They did the 21 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 2: calculation said hey we can get some more races in here. 22 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: I guess what it did was give you less opportunity 23 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: if you're one of the boats to pass and to 24 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 2: move up the field. So I guess from a sailor's 25 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 2: point of view that there might be a different answer. 26 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,759 Speaker 2: You know, I still think there was a plenty of opportunities, 27 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 2: a lot. We had a lot of different race winners. 28 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 2: Australia clearly the best boat out on the water last 29 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 2: couple of days. I think they deserve to win, but 30 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 2: I think everybody else had a decent crack at it. 31 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: It reminded me of Vistappin in Formula one at the 32 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,119 Speaker 1: beginning of last season, where it became just a procession. 33 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: He won the start, he led all the way through. 34 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: It was the same with this as well, and all 35 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: you were sitting there, the old Dame in this competition, 36 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: going I hope someone crashes. I hope someone falls off 37 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: the foils. I hope somebody capsizes. And I don't think 38 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: that's good sport. Each of those races were over under 39 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: seven minutes. 40 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it does happen really quickly. You know. It's the 41 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 2: T twenty of sailing, isn't it a sail GP. But 42 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 2: look it's still I think the format still works. You're right, 43 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 2: whoever gets the start has a huge advantage. In fact, 44 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: the start and getting to the first mark, which are 45 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 2: normally the same boat, so they do have an advantage. 46 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: But then the jockeying for position I mean Team New 47 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 2: Zealand the Black Foils will last off the line. In 48 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: the first trace, they got up to fourth, so they 49 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: did pass another what's that six boats to get up 50 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 2: to where they eventually finished, So there is an opportunity 51 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: to pass, but is there enough opportunity to catch the 52 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 2: boat that gets away fastest. More often than not, the 53 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 2: starting advantage turns into a winning advantage, so maybe it 54 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 2: needs to be looked at. 55 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: What about Daniel Hillyer, Eh. 56 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 2: Oh, this is so good. I mean, what a payday 57 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 2: for him? Nine hundred and seventy one thousand euro or something. 58 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 2: I think it's a one point seven million New Zealand dollars. 59 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: The more important part of this, though, Andrew, is the 60 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: points he gets on the European Tour, because, as we know, 61 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: holding onto your tour card is a big thing, particularly 62 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 2: when you're early in your career. What he's done here 63 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 2: by getting eight hundred and eighty nine points for second 64 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 2: place outright is he's basically secured his European or DP 65 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: World Tour card for next year, so he can be 66 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 2: more selective about the events he plays. Now he can, 67 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 2: you know, he can relax a little bit. He doesn't 68 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 2: have to go to every far flung event on the 69 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 2: Deep Tour to try and earn his points. He's got 70 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: them basically from this one event. So that's a massive 71 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 2: thing for him, and his bank balance is looking a 72 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: lot healthier to And it's. 73 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 1: Not on the list. I probably don't have time, but 74 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: oh my god, Chris Wood scored another. 75 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 2: It's not even a surprise anymore, is that Chris Wood 76 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 2: plays a game of football. Chris Wood scores a goal. 77 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 2: You wake up and it happened so often now it's 78 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 2: almost becoming commonplace. 79 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: It's not commonplace, mate, it's special. It's genius. 80 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 2: I know that. 81 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 1: Unbelievable. Anyway, I love you work. Thank you so much. 82 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: Jason Pine, who will be backulated on tonight seven o'clock. 83 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 2: For more from Hither Duplessy Allen Drive.
