Well, that was not what we expected or wanted. Bloody disaster!
If you’re reading this from some distant future where people (hopefully) don’t remember this race very well, know that we’ve got some pretty bad avoidable crashes on our hands. You can call it a lottery, you can call it a farce…but you can’t call it a race.
Matt and Peter obviously have some thoughts on this. What kind of thoughts are they? Well, as a producer I always love it when I mark an episode as ‘clear’ on some platform. And today? Bro, that box is ticked.
And if that’s a problem for you, remember that cursing is a perfectly healthy way to deal with stressful days like today. Speaking of stress, how the hell do these drivers do it? You know, you have to start the race over and over again. Watching horrible crashes and knowing you could be. It’s harder than you think; Listen to Matt talk about the moment he found out about his season.
So yes, we have a lot to talk about today. let’s do it!
