(keyboard clicking)
- Right. So that's it
unless you have questions or anything else, we can,
- Nope.
- Finish here.
- I'm happy.
Hey Google, what's my calendar for today?
- There's one entry for today.
At 13:30 you have karting with the team.
- Karting with the team?
Guess it's time to lap you a few times.
- Probably.
- Let's go.
- Yeah, let's go.
- By car is via M25 and will take about 24 minutes.
(engine roars)
- We going karting today.
- We both karting.
I'm terrible on this.
When did you start karting?
- Like six, seven.
- Whoa, that's impressive.
- But kids nowadays are starting at like three or four.
I mean I did motorbikes before
but then I had a big crash so then I stopped for a while.
Then we went to go and watch a karting race.
Then I was like, I really wanna have a go.
Like as soon as I tried the karting
I loved it more than the motocross.
Were you good at it straightaway or you
- No.
- Okay.
- I mean, I wasn't bad, but I was definitely not good.
In my first like four years of karting,
I won one race.
That's literally one race I won.
- That's what I have ever won in karting.
(both laugh)
- But then I changed to the Oligo Kart
and I did a lot better.
So I actually think being on the kart
which wasn't so good at the time, made me a better driver
because I had to work harder to be quick.
I had the passion to want to win.
So I think those first few years set me
up really well for the my, my future
even to now because I still wanna be involved.
And now I have my own go kart, the LN Kart.
Like I went to one of the races,
and when you're seeing all the kids
how small they are and that was like once me.
- Hope that's the appeal. They see you turning up.
Whoa. That's Lando Norris, F1 driver.
- Yeah. It's weird when I think of it like that.
You know that they're feeling the way that I felt.
- Yeah.
- Those years ago.
- And what do you think you learned there?
You're still applying in Formula 1?
- I used to always go out on slick tyres
when it was raining.
Learning that at such a young age
and always enjoying those conditions.
Like I always genuinely do a good job when it's like slicks
in the wet. Singapore this year.
- Yeah, Brazil qualifying this year.
- Brazil.
- Almost in your first pole position in Formula 1
from those tricky conditions.
We can track it down all the way to the karting times.
- Pretty much.
(engine roars) (mellow music)
- Thank you Google for bringing us here.
- Thanks Google.
- Yeah. I just hope I'm not the worst one here today.
- You'll be better than Randy I think.
What do you reckon? One lap head start?
- Three.
- I heard Randy's actually pretty good.
- I dunno. - After you.
- Thank you.
- Ah, here they are.
- (Lando) Hi Randy.
- Nice you to join us.
Lando.
- Chris.
- All right.
- How's it going?
- You think you can beat me?
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- I wanna go get changed.
While I do that
you can have a look how good I was when I was younger.
- Let's see what he was like back when he was a teenager.
Wasn't that long ago, was it?
- God. He does look young there.
It's all good, Randy, we've got all your experience.
- Time to embarrass them all.
Flat out
(engine roaring)
Brake.
Don't brake.
(engine roaring)
I think brake. (laughs)
(tyres squealing)
Not a lot of braking.
Not sure how I feel about that.
(engine roaring)
You think you got it?
- I think we got it.
- Okay, let's go.
(tense music)
- Now you're ready. How you feeling Chris?
- Good? I can beat him at least.
- You look. You actually
- I'm coming for you.
- You look quite professional.
- Yeah.
No you don't. (laughs)
(tense music)
(engine revving)
- Start sequence.
(engines roar)
- Off we go.
(exciting music)
- Ahhh!
(exciting music) (engines roaring)
- Whoa
(exciting music)
(Lando laughs)
- Sorry, friend.
- Randy. You're pretty good mate.
Jose?
Come on.
(engine roaring)
Whoa.
- Where you going?
We're a team here.
This is a team effort.
(Lando laughs)
That's why I'm an engineer and not a driver.
(engine roaring)
(exciting music continues)
- Go on Chris.
Go Chris.
Oh Chris.
(tyres squeal)
Sorry.
- I didn't even touch you. (laughs)
(exciting music)
(engine revs)
(exciting music continues)
- Whoa! Oh no.
(exciting music)
- Oh. Lando's coming and Oscar..
- I'm surrounded by Formula 1 drivers.
What can go wrong?
(engines roaring)
(exciting music)
(Lando laughs)
(engines roaring)
(Lando laughs)
(exciting music continues)
(Lando laughs)
(engines roaring)
- Ah. What a win.
(engine roars fade) (music fades)
- I still can't feel my hands.
(they laugh)
- I can't feel my toes or my hands.
- I'm so tired now.
- Quite different for you driving this than the McLaren.
- A little bit different to say the least. Yeah.
- No, no tyre warmers.
- No tyre warmers, no hand warmers, no feet warmers.
- And you had like clear visors on
so I could see your emotions.
Randy was going the wrong way round at one time.
(they all laugh)
My advice was a bit out.
- I'm sorry.
(they all laugh)
- Yeah, that was good fun.
See you guys.
- See you later.
- See you.
- Have fun. - Thanks guys.
- You wanna go do some more laps?
- Yeah. Sweet.
- Let's go.
(engines roaring) (exciting music)
