Matt (1:37)

Congratulations, Kimi.

Brian (1:40)

Amazing job, Kimi.

Matt (1:42)

It's your biology. It's your brother Jack Wolf.

Matt (1:46)

It's your brother Jack Wolf.

Matt (1:47)

Congratulations.

Brian (1:50)

On the arm, Kimi.

Brian (1:52)

Something like a phenomena. Something like a phenomena.

Brian (1:57)

Something like a phenomena.

Brian (1:59)

Oh my God.

Matt (2:01)

Have you heard of LL Cool J?

Matt (2:07)

I was making a coffee. I was going to go make a coffee while the interview was happening.

Matt (2:11)

I heard, have you heard of LL Cool J?

Matt (2:14)

I ran back. I was like, I need to see what Kimi says to this. Then he was like, now, that these unka statis.

Brian (2:24)

Yes. You are so watched and so cooked, David Coulthard. Well, David Coulthard said, well, there's a song, something like a phenomena, which I had not heard. So we listened back to it.

This is a song that obviously, David Coulthard was laying pipe to in the 90s. And he just, he brought down energy in this historic race, this race that will maybe go down in history as being the like full arrival of the goat of Kimi Antonelli.

Matt (3:02)

Yes.

Brian (3:03)

When they look back at the broadcast, it makes me feel happy to know that David Coulthard is referencing a kind of obscure LL Cool J song that he used to fuck to back when he was doing it in Formula 1 I just love that that's like in the pantheon, in the fucking records of this race is David Coulthard being like, what about LL Cool J though?

Matt (3:30)

Yeah, not even from NCIS, you've not even heard of him.

No, it was, this was a, fuck you guys, I'm one of the all time great drivers. George didn't even look upset. He was just like, yeah, well. It's like Brian, it's like when you go out for an audition and they just like, you lose out the part to Seth Rogen, you're like, yeah, well, you know, what am I supposed to do about that?

Brian (4:03)

I was never getting that part to begin with.

That was never my part. Just like P1 in this race was never my position. Just like this championship was never actually mine. They might've flirted with me and made me feel like it was mine. But no, no, no, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_7 (4:17)

This belonged to Kimi Antonelli.

Brian (4:19)

That's right.

Matt (4:21)

But it was always Kimi's. I mean, that was crazy.

I mean, we never even saw an overtake. We just kind of like, you know, the start happened, I took a leak, and I get back and he's in like 12th.

Brian (4:34)

I know.

Matt (4:34)

Like what the fuck happened?

Brian (4:36)

You know, I looked back at his onboards, and it wasn't even anything like that crazy. He was just like slowly but surely making his way through the field. He had one double overtake on the main straight. But he just had so much more pace than anyone else out there today. It was unbelievable. It was a defining race of this season. We'll maybe go down as a defining race of his career.
