1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning. Sam Well, it's been 2 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: three and a half months since supercar drivers have raced 3 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 1: in real life since the Grand Prix in Australian Grand 4 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: Prix was canceled in March. Today races are heading back 5 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,799 Speaker 1: to the track. So David Reynolds, is he sick of 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: racing a simulator at home? He's heading back to the track. 7 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: There will be a couple of changes here to tell 8 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: us more. David Reynolds, good morning, Good morning. 9 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:26,080 Speaker 2: How I am. 10 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 3: Great to have you on the show again. 11 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,919 Speaker 1: Have you have you packed on some coronavirus? Kilo's will 12 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: it be hard to squeeze into the car? 13 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,880 Speaker 2: I actually lost a bit away at the start because 14 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 2: obviously I used to eat out a lot and I 15 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 2: had to cook all my food and I was just 16 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,599 Speaker 2: too lazy. But then at the end I thought I've 17 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 2: got the hang of it and started like everyone else. 18 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 2: Let's stayed at home for three months. They become like 19 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: an amateur chef and thought they were really good with 20 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 2: the E Series. 21 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 3: Dave, There's there's a world of difference between driving an 22 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 3: E Series SIMI as opposed to the real thing, Isn't there? 23 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well's apart. One, it's like a fabricated game, 24 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 2: I suppose, and one's real life. So yeah, in the game, 25 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 2: you don't have all the touch and field and all 26 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 2: the all the sensory perception I suppose you normally would 27 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 2: have in real life. So that's all disappeared. It had 28 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 2: to drive off vision basically, And it was I struggled 29 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 2: because I never really played a lot of games, and 30 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 2: I got disqualified many times in practice and having a 31 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 2: good time, and yeah. 32 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 3: And there's all that. There's that whole fiery death thing 33 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,839 Speaker 3: that you could have as well. 34 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 2: Exactly right. Yeah, there's no fear in the game. The graphic. 35 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 2: You can just press the reset and it's back to 36 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 2: back to square one. 37 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: So with actual physical racing, what changes are in place? 38 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: Obviously there won't be a crowd, but what other changes 39 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: are there? 40 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 2: So there's a few changes we're not allowed. There's a 41 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: few of the data restrictions. So you know, our cars 42 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 2: heavily rely on data to make the fastest, so the 43 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 2: engineers spend a lot of time processing that data. And 44 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 2: there's a few sensor has been taken off the car. 45 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: How come. 46 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 2: It's a bit of a cost saving initiative initiative because 47 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 2: you know the data and the electrical side always you know, 48 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: the sensors break, they're expensive to run, and it takes 49 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,799 Speaker 2: a lot of people to process the data, so they're 50 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 2: trying to cut down on the amount of people. Obviously, 51 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 2: the amount of people were allowed to take to the 52 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: track is limits did in including two drivers. So normally 53 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 2: we have about twenty twenty twenty two twenty two staff, 54 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 2: so you know about half the workforce we are now. 55 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 2: And there's a few like pit lane types changes as well, 56 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: So normally you have to do with pit stop we 57 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 2: change four ties. You have four rattle guns in this 58 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 2: In the new rendition of the sport, we're allowed to 59 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 2: rattle guns, so you know pit stops will be much slower. 60 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 3: I really say you can only change two ties at 61 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 3: a time. 62 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 2: Yes, well can change four or two. It's just it 63 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: just if you changed four, it takes double the amount 64 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,119 Speaker 2: of time that it used to. So you know, some 65 00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 2: cars will come in and take two ties and get 66 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: track position, but later on in the race they'll scuse fresh. 67 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 3: It should be like it should be like in real 68 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 3: life when you go to a mechatings, can I get 69 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 3: some tis mate, I can't do it today. What about 70 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 3: next Tuesday? Come back next Tuesday. 71 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: And David, what about the shoey? We know you love 72 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: the shoey. Is it a hygienic way to drink alcohol? 73 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's the only way you shouldnk alcohol. 74 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: That's an ad campaign you'd rather tinier than coronavirus. 75 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 3: David, did you start? Did you start the showy? Or 76 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 3: was it Daniel Ricardo? Who where did the showy? 77 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 2: I think I did it about a year before he did. Yeah, 78 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: it was a fair while. 79 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: You did it out of a song that was your problem. 80 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: Not the song I'm thinking of. Geez, get way too 81 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 2: early to talk about. 82 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 3: And on that note, David, it's always a treat to 83 00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 3: talk to you.
