1:59
I can only apologise big weekend though it is a big weekend
2:06
exciting weekend do you still get excited I do yeah I do I mean if I was watching it on TV
2:10
I would still be excited but I'm going to be there I know and hopefully we're going to have some good weather
2:14
if not we're going to have a bit of rain which is also good because the racing will be better
2:18
did you prefer dry or wet tyres I like dry tyres I could drive well
2:22
in the wet but I still didn't like it when it rained but I think that this weekend
2:26
we're going to have a lot of action obviously the McLarens are very quick this year but I think that you got to throw the Ferraris in the mix I think Lewis could be up there I mean even when he not got a good car around Silverstone he can still He knows his way around doesn he He does doesn he He does So who going to win
2:41
Who's your money on? Probably Lando. Yay! But I think Lewis has got a chance
2:47
I think Lewis has got a chance. It's the L's. It's the L's this year
2:51
How you... We did the J's. We mentioned that you are world champion
2:57
15 years ago, was that? Oh, stop it. It was the year after you came to my wedding
3:02
16 years ago. Wasn't it? When Jensen came to my wedding, I mean, it was a big old boozy wedding
3:08
but you particularly, you had no drive or anything at that point. Do you remember? No, you're right, yeah
3:12
And then the next year, it just was extraordinary what happened to you
3:16
Yeah, I was done. I was like, I've won one race and that could be my career over
3:20
And then we came back. What a year. He came back. I was trying to ask you
3:24
how has the sort of sport changed over those years? what have been the most significant changes
3:29
I think the following has just grown massively probably not so much in the UK
3:34
but I think the States for example the following we have from a certain TV series
3:39
it's really helped and a film that's about to change everything and it's so lovely to see it
3:45
because it's a sport I've loved since I was 8 and to see that many people into the sport that I loved for that long it really cool I kind of liked it when I raced because there weren so many cameras around
3:58
You know, we can have a little bit more fun. To be on and off the track. Yeah, yeah. You've got to watch yourself a bit more now
4:02
I got you. So, you know, it's a bit of this and that, right? I love driving those V10, the V8 engines
4:08
They don't sound so good now, but I have to say the racing has been amazing and we have a lot of superstars
4:13
a lot of British superstars out there, which is good. Yeah. And what about your own children
4:18
Do they know what you do? Have they seen previous races? Do you get them karting
4:23
When I ask my son who his favourite driver is, he says, William Byron, who's a NASCAR driver
4:30
You spent too long in California, mate. I tell you what, we went to a NASCAR race
4:34
and he met William Byron, and now he's an Uber fan of William Byron
4:39
I'm his second best, at least. Are you going to stick him in a kart? Does he show an interest
4:44
Maybe. He's very affectionate, my son. And I just, I think he's too nice to be a racing driver
4:51
Our daughter, on the other hand. She's perfect. Exactly, she's perfect. You know, if you tell her not to jump off of something
4:58
she wants to jump off of it. So she is the one, I think, if any of my kids are going to be racing
