069 - Nice

09/18/24 • 66 min

Welcome back Midfielders!
We had yet another explosive weekend on the track. We were just blown away by the papaya performance. We talk teams we shouldn't necessarily, and tease the heartbreak of a premature exit by our favorite Mexican Midfielder. Let's push deep into this week's tantalizing episode.
13:30 - The arrows! The Trash Man! Garbage points are what? That's right, points baby. Garbage cars are what? Lewis' car, at least this weekend it seemed. A rough go all three days for the champ. Unable to make the leaps of old this weekend, Hamilton was near the back of the pack while his teammate scrapes a podium off the cutting room floor. Mercedes taking what they can get, seems to be their M.O. this year.
17:15 - We share some fatherly thoughts on potentially the spoiled-est driver on the track, but as always, we find a way to say something nice. Fernando is our Kirkland King! Loves to race, when he wants to race, and if he wants to help us in our P10 challenge? What more can we ask for?
25:00 - VCARB. V-disappointing. Yuki got taken out by daddy's boi, and Danny's been struggling. We talk possibilities for Riccairdo's future, and not too many of them are in a seat. We tie in the Bad Boys as well. Ollie had a sick weekend and we're big on this kid. He's got a good head on his shoulders, and realizes the difference between A point, and points. Good job Bearman. Williams kept it cool during quali and we've got a new nickname for our potentially untalkable Frenchies. Questionable Trivia!
58-50 - Track facts! We may or may not be working on a fancy new jingle for that, we'll see. Dan breaks down the tires, and the track for the Singapore GP and gives a quick lil' history lesson as well. We make some BOLDIES as well as recap Patrick's misfortune from last week yet again.

068 - Bowser's Castle

Welcome back Midfielders!
No race? No problem. We can talk in circles without a subject just like any other American News outlet. Let's waste no time, or all the time, and crack right in to this week's episode.
0:00 - Intros/Adrian Newey?! Goin' to the WHERE?! Dan's got a juicy drop on where the air-flow-mastermind will land for the '25 season. If this be true, is it a massive waste of aerodynamic engineering? Patty talks some trash on one of his favorite ol' dogs, as the boys dissect the possibilities that lie ahead. Plus Baku Jeopardy. 'Nuff said.
24:40 - Dan busts out the Pirelli tire preview. Lots of speed and track evolution coming up this weekend. One of the longest circuits of the season, traffic may not be a big issue, but will we see a safety car in the treacherous castle section? We sneak a lil peek at who we might pick for the p10 challenge this weekend, and Patrick read an article? Wild.
35:40 - We make some BOLDIES! This week Dan takes a lil' heat for going less than bold. He's backing Lance, and Patrick's got the Mexican Midfielder! We're looking to maybe spice up the BOLDIE battle, reach out, and help us come with some fun ideas! It's gonna be a wild weekend no matter what happens!

070 - The Bouncer of the Midfield

Welcome back Midfielders!
A snoozer?! What're you guys talkin' 'bout?! Dan and our constituents on Threads are bashing this recent race in Singapore. We got Hot, we got Not, we got it all, except 2 top teams and 2 bottom teams, cause this is The Midfield baby! Let's get into it!
0:00 - Intros/ Ferrari. Good but bad. On again off again. Off again on again. I believe we call that blinking. We compare the Italians to the highlighter cars, and then to a Lego car. Maybe take your sweet car, and your top drivers and do something worthwhile? Maybe? It MIGHT happen..
8:30 - The Silver Arrows! Car looked great, drive looked mediocre to be honest. We think this might be the peak of the mountain for Mercedes this year. They're always around to pick up the scraps. Toto and the boys seem to be grasping at straws and throwing the Hail Mary's, and we're all for it. Let 'er rip, tater chip!
17:35 - It's everybody's favorite segment! We Say Something Nice about our favorite Canadian driver. It's getting tougher, but we're pretty creative. We get into VCARB and all the juicy drama. Danny? Out. Yuki? Still Yuki. We think it's time to lay down the Lawson come COTA.
25:53 - Our bad boys are back at it! Hulkster for the P10 pick. PMag is free and clear and loving life, penalty-free after his recent race ban. Quite vocal about it too in fact. The bouncer of the midfield is revealed, and he's a force to reckoned with, leather jacket and all.
30:10 - Williams! Patty's changed his tune mightily! Frankie's got these guys hummin', and we're on board. Dan's been on board most of the season, but it's been tough with Logie dragging down the team. More points in 2 races than Logan in 36? Dude's trying to tango with the top teams in a Williams. Bad. Ass. The L-Pines are out.
37:10 - Gyro cam! SO sick. Favorite camera of all time. Patty loves Singapore, Dan's not as impressed. Aesthetically pleasing, but at the cost of exciting racing? Clearly the heat has severe impact, maybe we reign it in a lil bit? Shout outs baby!
