- Can you do milk before water? - Hmm.
No.
My tea is my tea.
This is a very begrudging cup of tea.
- So, how does it feel to be a champion? - Thank you.
It's just been manic.
We signed a big extension to Max's deal.
- Uh-huh. That was good. - That was important for us.
Checo's proven himself to be a worthy teammate, I think. Hasn't he?
Checo said to me, "Look, having, you know, Max as your teammate
is a bit of a headfuck because you look at the data,
and he's doing it quicker and faster,
and you think, 'How the hell did he... did he do that?'"
I think what he's done, you know, it is tremendous.
And Pérez is coming back at him.
Pérez playing the ultimate team game here.
Max Verstappen is the World Champion,
thanks, in no small part, to Sergio Pérez.
You were brilliant.
I... I love Checo. I just think he's got such a good heart.
Checo knows that in this business, decisions aren't made with a heart.
- They're made with a head. - Yeah.
If he's not delivering the results...
People have short memories in this business.
He's got one year left on his contract,
and the reality is, if by spring,
he's not cutting it, then we're gonna have to look...
Brutal.
You know, we're gonna have to look outside.
Hello?
Good morning, sleepy bones.
Look at that.
Bonjour et bienvenue to incomparable Monaco.
Do you wanna say good morning to the guys from Netflix?
Give 'em a wave.
It's Monaco, and it's the big one,
and it's the one that every driver wants to win.
Hello, hello, hello.
It is really, really special.
It is the place where I feel home,
where I've got all my friends, my family.
It is, for me, heaven.
You wanna stand on your tiptoes?
Monaco is epic.
You got all the yachts, parties.
It's a wonderful lifetime experience.
You always dream of Monaco, racing one day there.
As a driver, it just feels really, really special.
You look amazing!
Grazie.
Hi. Good morning. How are you?
- Doing all right? - Yeah.
- Good. - How did you get in this morning?
All the normal roads that I normally take, they're all closed.
And the police were like, "No."
- And I was having arguments with police. - Oh, really?
There's this one woman, she was like, "No. Fuck off."
After six rounds of the season,
Red Bull lead Ferrari by 26 points in the Constructors' Championship.
Five years ago, there was no boats. Now it's rammed.
There's two trophies in F1.
There's the Drivers' Championship and the Constructors' Championship.
Our aim coming into this year is to get both of those titles.
It's a little bit tight, isn't it?
Well, the battle with Ferrari is very, very tight.
It's something that hadn't been expected or foreseen.
We should be further ahead.
So, for us, it's important to strike back, to keep that pressure on Ferrari.
Red Bull are a very, very strong team.
I think it's going to come down between us two at the end of the season,
who is going to win the World Championship.
As a driver, you realize that this is a year
that you could actually be fighting for a World Championship.
The feeling that that gives you is super special.
From a selfish point of view, you'd want a really boring championship,
but, you know, that's not gonna happen.
We're gonna have to fight hard for every point.
We need both drivers at the top of their game,
scoring the maximum amount of points that they possibly can,
and if they can't cope with it, you know, then why are you here?
Really good to meet you.
- How are you? - Hola.
- Hola. How are you? - How are you?
Bien. You good?
Yeah. You good?
- Yeah. - Very strong?
- Good luck. - Good luck, yes.
Checo did a phenomenal job at the back end of last year.
He was an incredibly loyal servant to the team.
Coming into 2022,
you know, Checo, he's had a couple of tough races.
It's a real concern to... to see that.
Sergio Pérez has now gone from leader down into fourth.
Where did that come from?
Fuck.
No comment.
And it's lights out and away we go.
Sergio Pérez coming at his teammate.
Fuck.
That is not the start that Sergio Pérez would have wanted.
Yeah, I don't know what happened on that first lap.
Pérez has had a scrappy lap, hasn't he?
Down in seventh, a couple of seconds off his teammate.
I'm struggling through the chicane.
Checo just has to start delivering. You know? Bring home wins consistently.
If there's one thing we know from the history of Red Bull Racing,
it is that emotion does not come into the decision-making process.
How are you? All right?
- Yeah. - All good?
- Yeah. - Good.
It's a big weekend for you.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Sorry for skipping the events last night.
That's all right.
I had a big headache.
Yeah, yeah.
No problem. No problem.
It's not ideal to be in this position
in the beginning of the season.
It's gonna be interesting.
Hiring Checo was a bit of a risk.
At 32 years of age, he's, you know... he's in the senior years of his career.
You know, you start to see, you know, cracks,
and... and, you know, sometimes, as a team principal,
you've gotta make big calls.
- Anyway, all right. - All right.
There's probably half the grid that would like to be in the team,
whether it be Daniel Ricciardo, Lando Norris could be on the market.
Even Yuki.
Ready for a spa moment?
I'll touch you up a little bit,
and then... have a seat.
We do natural beauty.
- All right, I'll let Sacha do his magic. - Yeah.
I feel like I'm on a box and stop.
Red Bull, is a very different team to everything else in Formula 1.
You have to deliver weekend after weekend.
Everyone is looking at you, what you're doing, right or wrong.
So the pressure is really high.
And we are changing, so maybe some privacy. Thank you.
- There is no privacy with Netflix.
- Out! - Exactly.
The number-two seat has always been an issue for Red Bull.
Are they ruthless?
Yes.
But they have to be, in a way,
um, in order to, you know, reap the rewards and the benefits
of... of fighting for and winning World Championships.
Yes, yes, yes. Amazing.
Chin up a little bit.
Amazing. Wow.
Yeah, I've had a few teammates. Pierre.
Pierre Gasly is behind by quite some margin.
We cannot keep doing this.
And Alex.
Oh, and that's a big hit for Alex Albon.
Brutal. Fucking brutal.
You could say it's tough sometimes, how they get dealt with,
but at the other hand, it's very simple. If you are not performing, you're out.
You know, there are a lot of other talents out there
who deserve a shot as well.
Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes.
I love it. I love...
Ooh!
I don't think there will be many people that say no to Red Bull.
Red Bull can have any driver, basically, they want.
Yeah, I'm a bit worried about them,
but I just think about delivering on track, off track,
and... I just hope Red Bull appreciates it.
Final lap. One more. Follow...
Yes, yes, yes. That's the final lap, yes.
When you push the maximum.
Very nice. I love it.
Whoo.
- Amazing? - Amazing.
- Very good. Amazing.
Worst case?
Um...
Not continuing my trip with Red Bull.
That would be the worst case.
What've you called your newborn baby?
- Emilio. - Emilio?
Emilio, yeah.
My daughter, she thinks she's a mom.
My family, it's everything, you know?
I think about my wife a lot.
It's what Formula 1 takes away from you.
For Checo, there's always a world in which you're not potentially in F1
for next season.
You know, it wasn't so long ago that
he had suddenly found himself without a seat.
Pérez is caught by Charles Leclerc,
and there's 3 cars gone off!
Keep going, Checo, keep going.
Pérez may be down, but he doesn't believe he's out.
Slowly but surely coming back from last place against all the odds.
This will be a phenomenal result for Pérez.
The man who was in last place at the end of lap one
comes home to win the Sakhir Grand Prix.
Are we really gonna say goodbye to this driver at the end of this season?
Hello, Christian.
Hey, Sergio. Welcome to Red Bull.
Sergio Pérez is a man who almost fell out of Formula 1.
He had nowhere to go.
And all of a sudden, Red Bull offered him a lifeline to his career, to his family,
to his whole way of life.
So keeping that seat at Red Bull is imperative to him.
Not knowing your future,
you are more stressed about what will happen next.
It's now or never.
Good luck for today.
Thank you.
- Thanks. - Merci.
Oh, it's Guenther! More interesting.
I have to lay the attention on you! You have to be the star.
No, no, no, it's you.
- How's the bambino? - Good.
I saw a picture. He's growing, huh?
Yeah. He's sleeping a lot.
Yeah, good. Good.
- Did you see the building?
His building, where he's moving to?
It's, uh, the new one.
- I saw the crane. - Yeah.
- Where the crane are. - But it's really going well, huh?
You'll be getting yours next.
Maybe over there in the... the mountains.
You always dream of Monaco.
It's just different to any other race, you know?
It's a race you wanna win in your career.
Red Bull love Monaco.
It's their race. They love it.
And, more often than not,
they've got a car capable of winning there.
Mark Webber, you have won the Monaco Grand Prix.
Brilliant drive. Well done.
This is a dream coming true for me. Thank you.
Daniel Ricciardo wins the Monaco Grand Prix.
What a day for Red Bull.
Max Verstappen wins the Monaco Grand Prix.
A win in Monaco is something that every driver wants.
Particularly a driver who wants to prove something to his team.
You win at Monaco, you're a legend for life.
Checo, he's happy or?
He knows his job.
He knows he's also gotta play a team game as well.
Checo? Checo?
Are you doing any work today?
And prepare for qualifying.
Right, you can do this.
- Yeah. - Yeah?
You'll be fine.
Monaco is very different to all the other races.
It's a street circuit. It's twisty, ultra-fast corners.
It's your worst nightmare in some ways.
As a person who drives it, you can't explain to someone
who's never driven it what it's like.
It's scary.
Track goes green in ten seconds.
Have a good one. Get in the rhythm. You'll be fine.
Absolutely. The time's in there, and if it's there, it'll come.
Exactly.
Monaco is a circuit you need complete confidence.
We are doing nearly 150 kph
and we are brushing the wall.
You cannot afford any mistakes.
Passing cars in Monaco, it's tough.
It's almost like a guaranteed crash.
Your adrenaline and... and your focus is... is so high,
and you come out the car after qualifying, and your whole body's shaking.
Qualifying's so important in Monaco.
Wherever you start is effectively where you finish.
If you're not starting on the front row, you're not winning.
Drivers now fully focused, on delivering the fastest lap possible,
which will decide where they start tomorrow's race.
Radio check okay.
Copy, loud and clear.
Charles Leclerc looking to lay down a fast time here.
- And we go as per plan. - Copy that.
You can push now.
He's absolutely flying.
That lap was really good.
So, at the moment, you are P1.
Sainz is on it as well. Pretty much matching Leclerc, actually.
Both Ferraris going really strong.
And keep pushing.
We wanna take it.
P2.
Out comes Max Verstappen.
Now let's see what he can do.
You're good to push in this section, Max.
Okay, that last lap, P4.
Checo behind, timed lap.
Nice and positive lap here. Nice and positive.
Okay, we're P3 at the moment. Leclerc P1.
Fuck.
Charles Leclerc is on provisional pole at the moment.
Carlos Sainz is second.
Sergio Pérez third, and Max Verstappen only in fourth.
Qualifying is everything in Monaco, yeah.
99% of your result.
If I'm on the front row, I have a good chance.
If not...
very little.
And this is Red Bull's last chance
to challenge the times set down by the Ferraris.
Good pace on this lap.
Good pace. Good job.
Okay, crack on.
Keep up the pace.
Good lap from Verstappen, he's on target to get on the front row.
Let's go, Checo.
Fucking hell. Here we go again.
Pérez spun coming out of Portier.
I'm out, man, sorry.
Oh, Sainz! Sainz hits Pérez.
And the track is blocked.
Yeah, I saw the yellow flag late.
Fuck!
...stopped him. Should've stopped him.
Yellows ahead, Max. Yellows. Checo.
-Yellows ahead. Track is blocked. - No way! For fuck's sake!
Okay, this is typical Monaco, isn't it? For fuck's sake.
Charles Leclerc will start on pole position for Ferrari.
Fuck's sake.
It's a disaster for Red Bull.
They will start from the second row behind both Ferraris in tomorrow's race,
and on this track, it will take a miracle to win from there.
Charles!
Charles! Charles!
Charles!
Good job, mate.
- Well done, man. - Thank you.
Where did Max qualify?
- Fourth. - Fourth.
- And Checo third. - Yes.
That will have pissed him off, Verstappen.
It definitely upset him, yeah.
- Didn't put him in a happy place. - Yeah.
It was not a great moment for the team.
There was definitely a chance for second,
but, of course, there was a red flag with Checo having a moment.
Once somebody hits the barrier, that's it, you know.
It is annoying, but what can you do?
I think he just got too greedy.
He made a mistake.
You know, this is gonna be a tough one tomorrow.
It's cool. Never saw anyone win a race on a Saturday.
Yeah.
See you later. Frustrating.
Charles!
Charles, straight ahead. Charles, straight ahead.
It sometimes happens in Monaco. It's a bit of an anticlimax.
But this time, one of your drivers
has potentially cost the other one a shot at pole.
It's a shame
because I think both of the drivers could've actually improved a little.
Uh, Max, certainly was, you know, significantly up.
Disappointing not to get one on the front row.
Thanks.
Qualifying didn't go according to plan.
Yeah. Really sad.
It's a frustrating situation.
I have to be better.
The team, it's very down.
Things are not great.
No, it's horrible. It's a horrible feeling.
Yeah, all qualifying, he was struggling, huh?
Well, not all qualifying. All day.
All day?
And now we have to hope for rain.
Yeah.
With Ferrari starting first and second on the grid,
it's gonna be very difficult to beat them.
This is a tight, twisting, narrow circuit,
where overtaking is almost impossible.
This race could represent the point of the season
where that balance of championship power shifts back from Red Bull to Ferrari.
- It's definitely getting darker. - Oh God, yeah.
With clouds above, tension is building up
for the start of the 79th ever Grand Prix in Monaco
in a pretty amazing way.
Have a good one. Think it's gonna rain?
I don't think so. What do you think?
I have no idea.
The weekend started well. First and second in qualifying
is an extraordinary thing.
I have to say that, when on Sunday we are on the grid,
first and second, the first row, red,
it is the best result ever.
The forecast doesn't say rain, but it looks different.
That, in England, looks like a rain cloud.
What's coming over that hill, it's gonna be crucial in this race.
I'm confident.
I don't care who is in the other car whatsoever.
I just want to... to beat them all.
Third and fourth on the grid, two Ferraris on the front row.
This is gonna be tough.
In Formula 1, there is so much pressure for us to deliver.
We need to work as a team.
The only chance we have to beat Ferrari is as a team,
and that means, you know, we need our drivers to work together.
And, uh...
Did you feel that rain?
There's no way we start the race like this, I think.
The car might become a bath.
Okay, the start procedure has been suspended, Max.
We'll start behind the safety car.
We have to start on full wets, right?
Yeah, with a safety car start, everybody has to start full wet.
Okay, Checo, the start procedure has been suspended.
Why's that?
Giving everyone time to be on the right tire.
Trolley, trolley, trolley, trolley!
When the rain starts falling in Monaco,
it's not a pleasant place to be.
If you make a misjudgment by one centimeter,
you're punished, and you're out of the game.
That's made it a bit more exciting. Fucking hell.
Rain in Monaco is probably one of the toughest mental and skill challenges
that you can have as a racing driver.
You know, if you play F1 game on the PlayStation,
the toughest condition you could get is driving on the wet in Monaco.
Everyone will crash doing this in the game.
And we've got to do that in real life.
Okay, we've got at least two laps behind the safety car.
Copy.
I can't see shit from the back.
Can't believe we're in Monaco right now.
I have zero grip.
We stay calm and everything will be good.
Safety car will enter the pits.
Time to rock and roll. Let's do it.
Copy.
Safety car comes in, and the racing gets underway in Monaco.
Leclerc is on the power. He's sliding all over the place already.
Ah, it's raining like crazy.
How are conditions?
I struggle a little bit for traction.
Slide from Sergio Pérez.
Shit!
Pérez two seconds behind.
Good job.
The Ferraris already getting away from the two Red Bulls.
Let me know track condition.
It's drying up quickly.
Okay, copy that.
Okay, Leclerc might be pitting. Let's push.
And box now, box.
Our race leader, Leclerc, pitting.
You're racing Leclerc here. Let's go get him.
It will be tight with Pérez.
And that is Pérez going past.
Okay Checo, P2. Good job. Push on.
Sainz, then, leads this race.
Pérez in second place, Leclerc third.
Checo is in front of Charles. Head down.
Nice lap. You're reeling Sainz in.
Just chip away at his times.
Okay, mate. Copy.
Try to improve if you can.
Okay.
Pérez currently the fastest man on the track,
gaining on Carlos Sainz.
Box for hard. Box for hard.
Copy.
Carlos Sainz pits from the race lead.
All out, Checo.
And box now, box. Box now, box.
Both Ferraris have pitted.
They're both in! Leclerc's in as well. They're double stacking!
Stay out! Uh, stay out! Stay out!
Why? What are you doing?!
Oh, miscommunication at Ferrari!
Can Pérez now capitalize on the mistake?
It's gonna be close. This could be the race lead.
Where are they?
And Pérez is through in the lead, ahead of Sainz and Leclerc.
Come on!
Perfect. Let's go, Checo.
Okay, Mick, just pick up the pace now.
Okay.
Mick, are you okay?
I'm okay.
- Is he okay? - Yeah, he's okay.
Red flag.
The red flag is out to fix the barriers
after Mick Schumacher's high-speed accident.
Race will resume behind the safety car.
Sergio Pérez will be the man leading the Monaco Grand Prix
from the front, behind the safety car.
Okay, safety car will be in this lap.
Sergio Pérez gets the Monaco Grand Prix back underway.
What's the gap?
1.2.
This race is not over yet.
Tense times for Sergio Pérez.
You are four tenths faster than Pérez.
Look how much quicker Sainz is.
Nice and easy on the brakes. Easy on the brakes.
I think Checo fucked his tires.
Ah, yeah. Fuck.
Pérez struggling for grip.
How limited is he on those tires?
DRS enabled.
Copy.
Carlos Sainz, he is right on the tail of Sergio Pérez.
Make sure everything's under control.
Carlos Sainz smelling a little bit of blood.
Try to put pressure on him.
He almost goes into the back of him!
Keep this tire in shape. Three laps to go.
Stay cool. Push.
What is the gap?
Gap behind, one second.
Try to put pressure on him.
It's getting close.
Pérez is having the race of his life,
but how much longer can he keep holding off Sainz?
Okay, Checo. This is your time.
- Get it done. - Loud and clear.
Down to the chicane.
Lockup from Sainz. Almost goes into the back of him again.
Final lap.
It's Pérez in the principality.
He wins the Monaco Grand Prix!
Oh, guys. Guys, guys, guys!
This is us! Come on!
¡Vamos!
Checo, you have won Monaco! Unbelievable drive.
What a brilliant, brilliant drive.
Thank you, guys. Thank you so much to everyone.
So happy to be part of this team.
And P2.
Well done, mate.
We did it!
Well done. Great drive. Unbelievable.
I'd think that's the biggest moment in his career.
It's one of the biggest races on the calendar,
arguably, the biggest race.
His third Grand Prix victory,
and it was great to see the elation on his face
when he stepped out of the car, realizing he'd won the Monaco Grand Prix.
Okay, you're gonna get it.
I've dreamed about winning Monaco for my entire life.
I've done it and no one will take it away from me.
Sorry.
There's nothing worse than having an unsettled driver,
and so, do you know what? Let's remove this question mark.
Let's settle Checo,
and so we get the best out of him,
and the team can focus on the World Championship.
Still at Red Bull?
Still at Red Bull.
I think so.
What it says here.
- ...two, three! Come on!
It's nice, you know, to have that stability
and also to forget about contracts.
I'm happy with the team, the team is happy with me,
and, yeah, we are pretty pleased with each other.
Red Bull, it's a very different team to everything else in Formula 1.
You either like it or hate it.
There's a lot of fun in the team, but everyone wants to win.
Yuki has to step up and deliver better performances.
Getting more expectation from the team.
- He's crazy at times. - Fuck!
- Yuki, push. - Yeah, I know!
- Decided to take de Vries on board. - Hello.
I'm gonna make sure that, um, yeah, we succeed here.
Nine teams have complied. One team hasn't.
We want the best team to win,
not the team that spends the most amount of money.
Unfortunately in this business,
the higher you rise, the sharper the knives.
