TRANSCRIPT:

Hey.

Hey, everyone.

Welcome back to Trackside Tea, where we skip the nerdy engineering stuff and just drive into the emotion, energy, and entertainment of f one.

I'm Rebecca, and today's episode is truly special because I was at Silverstone last weekend.

You all felt the British Grand Prix magic.

Right?

Rain, chaos, home heroics.

Let's get into it.

Lando's dream win.

Let's kick off with the epic headline, which everyone's talking about.

Well, actually, there is more than one epic headline, but we'll start with this one.

Lando Norris.

What an amazing moment.

Wicked pace in the wet dry conditions and a home victory in front of his crowd.

He was even getting emotional crossing the line, funnily enough.

Oh my god.

We did it.

And when I say his crowd, not only was it a home crowd as in the location at Silverstone, but he had his own stand, the Lando stand.

Stow corner a, b, c, and an added extra d.

It was all pure Lando.

They decked it all up the sides with a logo, etcetera, and we all well, most of us got a free t shirt to wear as well.

More about that little issue later.

You definitely couldn't miss his fans.

That's for sure.]

I'm kinda glad it wasn't a stupid hot weekend.

With floral yellow T shirts, we would have been a wasp flying bee's favorite area.

Not sure I would have fancied that, to be fair.

It's been years since a Brit outside of Hamilton won at Silverstone, and it's the first McLaren win there since Hamilton himself back in 02/2008.

Lando, you are a legend.

And what made it even better for him?

His whole family were there, including his grandparents.

So sweet.

Wet weather roller coaster.

Oh my goodness me.]

The weather was bonkers.

It's like Silverstone has its own little microclimate, a bit like Avebury.

The amount of times Paul and I, my husband, for those who don't know, have been there, and it's glorious until you get to the outskirts, and then it's hammering down with rain.]

And then to drive out the other side, and it's gorgeous again.

This is how it felt at Silverstone.

We were keeping an eye on the weather all week before we left, and it kept changing.

So we genuinely had no idea what was gonna happen when we got there.

As much as they tried to predict the rain coming, it still felt a little bit unpredictable.

So the rain definitely set the tone for the race.]

There were multiple safety cars, lots of shifting tire strategies, and a pretty treacherous track underneath them.

I have to say ponchos are king at event like this.

Best purchase ever.

And we had see through ones, so you can still see our fabulous color t shirts underneath.

But you know that point when you get part of you wet, and then you just think, screw it.

I'm wet now.

Who cares?

That...
