United States Grand Prix

Allison averaged a bit over 141 miles an hour.

At Watson's Glen, England's James Hunt captured the United States Grand Prix, and he finished ahead of South Africa's Jody Schechter and defending world driving champion Mickey Lauda.

The win cut Lauda's lead on the Formula One driving championship circuit to three points, with only the Japanese Grand Prix remaining later this month.

I still think one of our richest listeners, I know someone has to have millions, buy one of the car condos at Coda and let me live there for a year as a, can you actually live at these stupid condos they built at Circuit of the Americas? Because,

Rob, have you been to Coda? Have you been to the USGP? I have not made it, no.

It's not... close to Austin.

Like, it's not far from Austin, but it's not in the city.

25th of October, we are here in North America for the United States Grand Prix at Circuit of the Americas.

Did you see Trump wants to rename New Mexico New America? I laughed my head off when I read that.

I was like, that is an onion article.

Oh, easily.

It was the 1980 United States Grand Prix at Long Beach.

I, uh, the guy that eventually became my best man, his name's Pete.

Pete at the time was living out in California with his parents.

And of course, at the time, I didn't know Sean.

I didn't know Sean until about 20 years later.

And yet I realized that I was at the 1980 Formula United States Grand Prix at Long Beach with two of my very best friends, all within 10 feet of each other.

And I only knew one of them, of the three of us.

It's bizarre.

I mean, it kind of reminded me of Toyota back in 2005 at the US Grand Prix.

I'm like, did they just not fuel him? Or was this just a glory run to get the headlines after the Monaco podium thing? But it doesn't work like that anymore.

So I guess it was just fast.

It's easier than ever to do this now.

We have three American Grand Prix.

That makes it easy to go see the top level.

There are other races.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know, when COTA and Silverstone were saying, "Great partnership coming up," I said, "Wow, so next year's British Grand Prix is at COTA, and the American Grand Prix is gonna be at Silverstone."

Ah, no.

I literally expected them to make that announcement.

It's the British-American Grand Prix in that case.

[laughs]

We've had a British-American racing team.

We need a Grand Prix as well to make it happen.

Like, it's weird how Oscar Piastri looks unrecognizable in demeanor, behavior, and driving ability s- ever since, like, that final third of the season.

I think the Austin GP, right? That's where things started to unravel a little bit.

Very, very absurd.

It's, it's convincingly one-sided now at McLaren.
