Jim HolcombHOST
I love it.
Jim HolcombHOST
Some people have described you as the Ted Williams of CNN anchor takedowns, the Greg Gutfeld of W16, the Pablo Picasso of Photoshop, and someone once described you on this podcast as being able to fit in the beverage cart to get into my studio.
Jim HolcombHOST
Welcome, Paul Eklof.
Paul EckloffGUEST
Fit in the beverage cart? I'm like the guy on Ocean's 11, I guess? I'm-

Jim HolcombHOST
You're like, "Wait a minute, this is-"
Paul EckloffGUEST
Yeah.
Paul EckloffGUEST
Why did I romanticize this so much? I'm in W16 for seven straight days eating grits from the mess.
Paul EckloffGUEST
You get to go to the windows mess.
David TracyHOST
Duclutch...
David TracyHOST
Look, I will admit, no one's using W16 engines on their cars.
David TracyHOST
No.
David TracyHOST
And here's what else I'll admit.
Phil RoyleHOST
...
Phil RoyleHOST
I think the world will tell him different as soon as the government say in two years, five years, 10 years, whatever it is, that, you know, that W16 quad turbo is no longer [laughs] legal-
Ed SanchezHOST
Yeah
Phil RoyleHOST
... for sale.
James AventHOST

James AventHOST

Kai LaityHOST

James AventHOST

Ben WhybrowHOST
Oh, yeah.
TeeksHOST
Thank you.
TeeksHOST
ladies and gentlemen welcome back to induction noise your home of car news motorsport news and everything in between and folks we are back at it again and this time well f1 will be coming up soon but before then we have had honestly quite a huge fluttering of like car stuff coming out thanks to our monterey car week that's been taking place well i mean according to riri it's just finished just now but we might still have some more cars coming up but anyway We are going to cover that and every bit of news that came out, including Gordon Murray basically continuing to remake the McLaren F1, Bugatti doing more stuff with the W16.
TeeksHOST
They keep saying they've retired, but they're going to keep doing again.
TeeksHOST
Lamborghini with the Revueltos and so much more from Ford.

TeeksHOST
Come on.
TeeksHOST
They can bring
RiriHOST
a W16 there, even though it'd be way too heavy for racing.
RiriHOST
Way too heavy.
LawVSHOST
And then, of course, he finished fourth despite picking up damage while fighting Leclerc.
LawVSHOST
So I think with the W16 it proved that on this circuit he can live right at the top here but there is something that is really hanging over him right now and it's the Hungarian Grand Prix issue as well as the Belgian Grand Prix issues and issues we've seen time and time again this season so far is that his car is not doing things that he's expecting it to do that the team can't get a handle on it and it could take months for them to properly diagnose it They gave him a brand new power unit for Hungary, and it's still conked out in them with anti-stall.
LawVSHOST
So now I'm imagining that George might be thinking, well, I can qualify well, but what's the point of qualifying well if I can't get off the line well? So it's all of these things on his mind that's just left him completely numb.
LawVSHOST
But he can do this if the car works with him.
Matt MillerHOST
It's just absolutely insane.
Matt MillerHOST
By the way, just before you get off the Mate Rimac, um, note, Bugatti had killed the W16, and now they're bringing back the W16-
Hannah ElliottHOST
Yeah
Matt MillerHOST
... to make a one-off, uh, for the same kind of person you were just mentioning, like, "I'll pay anything, whatever it is."
Timmy FournamesGUEST
And that was the best thing about Piac was he was all about trickle-down engineering.
Timmy FournamesGUEST
If I make this fucking Bugatti with a W16, well, what else can we do with this platform? Oh, well, fuck it.
Timmy FournamesGUEST
Cut four cylinders off of it and take the turbos off.
Timmy FournamesGUEST
Shove it in a Passat.
