Send us a textWe’re debriefing the British Grand Prix with friends (insert Inbetweeners meme here). Lando Norris thrived. Alpine did not. Brad Pitt existed. And so much more. Silverstone brought all the drama and we’re chatting about allll of it. Let’s un-box box the British GP!A couple of notes:The Nyck de Vries and Daniel Ricciardo news dropped after recording. There’s an extra clip added addressing it, but please expect some of the comments in the pod to be ~2 days out of date!! We went on several unplanned tangents which resulted in a slightly longer episode than normal (I edited it down for 5 hours 😭 😂) so I’ve added some chapters in case you want to skip around. And shout out Dyaus for being such a great sport and discussing all my in-depth personality-based questions along with the race analysis 🥳WATCH THE EPISODELinks(let me know if I’ve missed any and I’ll add them in!)George surprises Toto with a quality giftTweet about telemetry in Brad Pitt's filmLewis Hamilton tweets out telemetry Pierre Gasly, Charles Leclerc, Lewis Hamilton, and Brad Pitt selfieMax Verstappen on his "inchident" during qualiParis Hilton and Lando NorrisFind me outside the pod: Follow me @boxboxf1podVisit the website for more deets on me and the podcastShare your thoughts/opinions/questions with me!!
