00:00Oh, dearie me. That's motorbike racing for you.
00:02That's right. It's very sad, isn't it?
00:03Because it's only a tiny crack, he said, and he hopes that just a couple, three weeks or we'll fix it and he'll be back
00:09At Spielberg at the Red Bull Ring at our next event. Let's keep our fingers crossed for him
00:14Well, there we go. Here's a reminder of your grid then. We saw the front row
00:17We know who that is
00:18Then you have Morelli, Moodley, Boggio, Pugliese, Pironi and Christian Daniel there in ninth place despite a crash
00:24In FP2 yesterday ahead of qualifying. Dinesh starts from 10th ahead of Fumara and Pertama
00:29Then you've got Thomsen Pavelic who had a great result here
00:32He's got a bunch of his cousins and siblings here supporting him in Afsin, only a seven hour drive from Poland
00:37Then you've got Zanni alongside him, Rammersdorfer, Polonga and Sullivan-Malmsey, Varkus, Belford, Pons, Puetizan,
00:44Sessler and Monignane, the last of the 24 riders here racing this week
00:49Yeah, and I think Milan Pallet was really pleased with
00:52The way things went in practice. He had started the year with an injury
00:58He overcome that and he's really clicked here. Of course, it doesn't help that he does have the
01:03long lap penalty. So this is the
01:07warming up lap
01:09And the guys last chance to have a good look at things and just
01:13See where and somebody's zooming off there to see what the long lap penalty track will look like and of course
01:18Well, in fact, there's a whole load of them a good idea and they'll take a practice so you know where you're going
01:23I'll tell you what Peter plenty of rubber down in there because it got a lot of use in the MotoE race
01:28Just before this as well. So, uh, yeah, not a bad idea for those riders as we come down the back straight here then
01:35Worth noting actually, although we don't want to do too many spoilers, but who cares?
01:39It's only qualifying day
01:40What better advert for rookies cup have we got than Angel Piqueiras last year's champion who got a double victory here on pole position
01:47Well, i'm glad you're going to get the abuse for telling everybody
01:50Bring it on
01:52Lay it on me. It was stunning. Was it absolutely superb and you know, and he took it away from Colin fire and Colin
02:00was looked he had that pole, but then he sort of spat himself off and
02:05Tyre for his auto in the middle of them in the middle of them. That's right. It's superb, wasn't it?
02:09I'll tell you what was absolutely incredible when you watch the slow-mo of Colin's crash how you saw
02:15The alpine stars tech air go off, you know
02:18As soon as he was launched into the air the airbag goes to the alpine stars tech air goes off
02:22And he landed on his back, but it was so well cushioned that he was able to you know, walk away from it
02:28He's absolutely okay for tomorrow. Give our former rookies a big cheer
02:33Heading into the race tomorrow last year's rookie. Also another graduate jacob rolston
02:38included
02:40That's right. So we're coming around to
02:42the grid now
02:44We are looking forward to 15 laps. We've gotten
02:49I think nine guys have got to go
02:52Long lap penalty and of course, you know the normally the thing to do is to get it done soon
02:57But you can't do it on the first lap as max key has found out
03:00Yes. Yes. So hopefully they've all been watching born racers
03:04And uh can can find out about that. Anyways revs are going up very shortly. Yeah, that's right
03:10So they've got to wait a couple laps before they can do the long lap penalty
03:14But then they really should get it done
03:16There'll be a queue for it. Okay on pole position and alvaro carpe rico samela brian. Uriarte
03:22And away they go who gets a good start alvaro carpe gets it rolling
03:27Well, but coming through it is morelli on the number 95. Is he going to lead into the first corner?
03:32Who's going to be latest on the break carpe tries to go around the outside
03:35But it is morelli that leads the argentine leads that was the cleanest start i've seen yet from a rookies cup rider this season
03:42For morelli, he shoots into the lead does lightning mcqueen
03:46How about that a reminder that he's one of the riders who doesn't have to serve a long lap penalty today?
03:51No, that's right. And uh, he's out onto the back straight. There's rico samela on the number 27. He's had a decent start
03:58Oh, what's happened? Somebody's down. No marco. Come on
04:03Oh, what a dog dearie me
04:06That is a flap and a half for morelli, and of course he also fell off the first lap
04:12There was second corner. I think it was in le mans. So what a disaster for him
04:15It is alvaro carpe on the number 83 the pole man who leads somebody's off on the blue stuff
04:20That was christian. Daniel jr
04:21Going wide at turn seven there a real problem area for many riders here today
04:26Moto three moto two moto gp alike and so rico on the 27 is up into second place and I think
04:32Is that uh, oh there he went right and the 73 of course is the other argentine valentin peroni
04:39He had a superb run in
04:41Fp2 didn't get it all together for the qualifying, but he's certainly got it together now
04:46He sits fourth in the championship with 90 points just 20 of max kiles his lead then peroni your most recent race winner
04:53In rookies cup and there we have it. The riders are being told they have a long lap penalty
04:58So from lap two, they can begin to enter the long lap penalty up into second place
05:02It's the 51 of brian uriate and he is hounding carpe already up into second place out onto the start finish
05:10To complete the first of 15 laps and up into fourth is vader
05:14Pratama the indonesian up from 12 spots on the grid. What a lap that was from vader
05:19Yeah, and of course, uh, you know, it's a new track for him a lot to learn
05:22But he certainly learned it quickly. It didn't come together in qualifying, but it's certainly come together now
05:27He's obviously a racer and there is the number 95 of morelli
05:31Obviously the bike not seriously damaged, but he is way way behind
05:36He will be absolutely livid with himself bless him. I did see the riders sit up through there
05:40I thought that was a bit cautious maybe cold tires or something
05:43Here's what happened to morelli goes round and oh and a bit of a high side there on the gas too much
05:49Maybe a bit of a cold tire for him
05:51But he's straight up and back on the bike. Dear dear. Dear. Come on morelli. Oh, oh
05:57Yeah
05:58Well, there we have it bless him
06:00And of course, uh, you know his uh alpine stars tech air will have gone off and saved him serious injury there
06:05and these guys do have two canisters so they can
06:09Run again and still have another airbag to go another to look after themselves bounty perani
06:14He is up into the lead now
06:16But he is one of those who has to take a long lap penalty
06:19And I don't think any of the riders have actually completed long lap penalty yet not according to our timing screens at least
06:24Well, we haven't seen anybody either as we because ariate he has to he's uh
06:30In second place the number 51. He doesn't have to take a long lap penalty
06:35Well here we come then into the final sector. This is part of the original ascent circuit
06:40What a ribbon of asphalt this is look at them all funnel in there
06:44Into rushken hook and up to the gt chicane one of the best final sectors you can ever wish to race
06:51in a grand prix motorcycle racing calendar
06:54And perani now comes through to lead but surely surely he's going to take an early. Uh, early trip down the long lap penalty lane
07:01That's the 24 of guilleme plonk
07:03As all the riders get told they can take the long lap penalty now
07:06Salomon mountie is actually the first rider to complete it
07:09Right good for him
07:11Vader patana goes through into third place bunch of riders hands up because they are all pulling into the long
07:18Three four five at least on this lap as she said
07:22Sullivan mounds he's already done it and they're all screaming out. How many places did they like where is peroni 73 matt?
07:29Where's he come out peroni?
07:31Is I did he take that time? He's come out in about eighth ninth place. There he is with carpe and rico
07:38they've just got ahead of
07:40Yeah, 11th. He's come out 11th peroni that so he went from first to 11th
07:45So indonesia stand up because your boy's leading ahead of brian ariate, but for how long let's see plonk moves up in the second place
07:53He's who I was going to mention when all the riders went into the long lap penalty lane. What a ride
07:57This is from the frenchman
07:59Yeah, I mean he's been just very middle infidel in the uh in the cup so far this season
08:04But he's certainly changed that around now hasn't he up into second place behind vader for trauma?
08:09Absolutely superb stuff and ahead of brian ariate. You've been waiting to use that line all season long
08:13Haven't you quality love it? Well vader patama comes on to this beautiful section onto the back straight pretty much for one of the
08:21Couple of back straights really as they go right and then funneling left into rush gun
08:28Looks like however, many of the riders
08:31Seven, I think nearly all of them. I think yeah. Yeah. Anyway. Yes
08:35I think that's I think seven of nine have done it
08:37Anyway, okay, but back in with the leader vader patama. It is from indonesia
08:42The 15 year old has the advantage brian ariate on on 51
08:46The 24 of graham park is there as well?
08:49You're on board probably with brian. I would think
08:52Yes, indeed, but up the inside who is that coach?
08:56There he is
08:58Looking for his first podium and victory
09:00First podium of the year first victory in rookies cup the number 11
09:04Had a special visit from brad binder along with katam on the yaya's countryman
09:09on thursday
09:10And here he is doing the business up in the second place
09:14And we were talking about you know with colin fire this corner the struban there and uh, you could see the tight line going in
09:21It doesn't help you get out onto this straight so important
09:24But uh as colin said two ways to do this mirelli the fastest lap. Oh, wow
09:29He'll be furious about oh dear dear dear dear dear poor chap
09:3454 vader patama, but it is the south african on the number 11
09:39Ruche moodley who leads what a line that was. Oh, who is that getting pushed wide boggio?
09:44Very miffed with that one. I think that was leonardo zanni potentially his countryman pushing him wide
09:50He got bogged right down in the 47. He's now down in 11th place just ahead of
09:55his great mate julia pugliese, so it's a
09:58Ruche moodley that leads but it is brian. Uriarte is up into second place ahead of vader patama and uh
10:0424 gillen park is back into fourth place just seeing uh, peroni
10:09Who we saw he took along that penalty went dropped to 11th. He's back up to ninth
10:14Like a couple of bike lengths, uh splitting ruche moodley in second place brian uriarte through there
10:20Then the final corner final set of corners here. We come
10:24i've got to say
10:26That plonks for me, I mean, this is absolutely incredible. Where did he come from on the grid
10:32all the way
10:34It's 16 guys in this lead battle. It is 16 riders. Absolutely incredible stuff
10:42What came from 17th on the grid? Yeah, and he's in third. I mean that is just sensational
10:48Riders in the long lap penalty lane aside that is a heck of a couple of opening laps that it is indeed, isn't it?
10:54Yeah, and then
10:56Where do you say you 70 the 145 723 he did in qualifying they're now doing
11:02Well, they're only still in the 145 bracket, but the low of the mid 45
11:06So I suppose, you know, I was wondering whether he's got a bike set up really to run this fast
11:10But they're not going that much faster than he did in qualifying
11:13So still it is the 11th of ruche moodley with the advantage plonk as we were saying was up into second place
11:19He's just been pushed aside by brian uriarte
11:23And keep an eye on our one-time winner so far this year alvaro carpe one race two in jerez
11:31He is the rider leading the charge for the ones that went through the long lap penalty. He's behind plonk now
11:38He's in about fifth place, but he's going to move up the inside of the frenchman. There he goes the 83
11:43He got a victory in the junior gp last time out last weekend in porta mouse. He is
11:48Heaping with confidence, right?
11:50And we've already had five different winners in the six races of 14
11:54We've had so far and uh rushe starting to open up. That's the first sign of that
11:59We've had in this race, of course
12:00We've still got 11 laps to go but uh rushe certainly putting the hammer down and carpe
12:06He is right on his tail then through he comes into second place does the spaniard?
12:11He sees the opportunity of the series leader chiles watching from home on the sidelines
12:16He wants to take over at the top, but he's not going to get it easy the 11 of rushe moodley
12:21What's that first victory more than anything here?
12:24He is into turn one carpe into the lead carpe superb stuff on the on the brakes there because the other side of the racetrack
12:30to rushe moodley and uh
12:32Brian, ariate doesn't want to see carpe disappear. He wants to get on his tail as well
12:38The different lines here as we were talking to colin who's going to go up the inside tight on the inside
12:42Brian ariate goes quite tight carpe comes around the outside and he pulls away
12:47So he's got the pull got the jump on brian ariate as they go down the back straight
12:52Up from 15th on the grid is leonardo zanni the italian now into fifth place as well
12:57This is a great ride from him ascent another rider circuit a bit like migello lots of flow to it
13:03These cambered corners. It looks very flat, but these corners got a lot of camber to them
13:07Um, if you get into the zone really find your flow, that's where the talent really shines through
13:15And just noticing
13:17Looking down and peroni
13:19Is up into sixth place. He was leading before he took the long left penalty
13:23He's now back up to safety. You're looking back at the 51 of brian ariate
13:28and then the number 11
13:30of rushe moodley the leader is still the 83 of alvaro carpe who is
13:38Doing an absolute sensation salmela's come through wow
13:42Look at that around the outside absolutely leathering it in onto the inside a ruskin hook there
13:47Salmela one of the riders who went through the long lap penalty lane looking for a podium and victory here in rookies cup
13:54He has one podium so far this year. He was fourth in race two in migello
13:58He wants a win though. Does rico and all nine men have completed their long lap penalties?
14:04So it's just flat out racing from here 83 alvaro carpe still leads
14:10Peroni up into fourth place then
14:13So it's as you were it took only about five or so laps for the riders who went through that lane
14:19To come back through into the order as you were gents
14:22Yeah, I think carpe must have been the first must need to uh to climb back up to the front line. They're absolutely
14:29superb stuff
14:31Moody's been really pushed back down. He was leading only a lap or so ago
14:34but he's down into seventh now as it's another new best race lap for morelli who has
14:40Picked off evan belford for 23rd spot morelli now fighting his way through he's only nine seconds
14:47Off the lead peter and brian. Ariadne hits the front taking the lead away from alvaro carpe
14:55This is going to be superb the 73 of peroni
14:59Valentin peroni the 16 year old argentine is there in third place, but rico is on his tail
15:08Vader pratamar on the number 54 is fifth
15:11Hakim danish we haven't he's been running close to the front, but we haven't seen him really feature yet
15:17But he's now up into sixth place. He was suffering with quite a lot of chatty yesterday in fp2
15:22He told me hey, and uh, he wasn't too happy with the setup of his bike. He qualified 10th place
15:27He wants it much higher
15:28But good to see him up there fighting with vader pratama and carpe gets the lead back from uriarte
15:35Very brave through the first the fast the last of the fast left handers and hard braking down to the chicane
15:45Out onto the start and finish eight laps remaining we're only a third of the way through this race
15:57So
15:59Well, it really is the fastest riders from qualifying up there in towards the top four
16:04The only sort of outliers vader pratama from 12th place
16:07I'm, really impressed with how quickly he learned saint goes for peroni and uriarte. They've not been here either
16:13Uh, but vader isn't as fresh as these guys, uh, some of them. They've they've been uh riding elsewhere as uriarte
16:21Did you see that oh my goodness he went completely over the rubble strip and onto the grass
16:27It happened so quickly. I couldn't even really process what was happening
16:30Goodness, man. He's kept it pinned like he was doing an mxgp race. Yeah
16:35Uriarte goodness me
16:38Yeah, he's a star. I think he really signed for graham park
16:41Who was who was featuring at the front so much on the number 24?
16:44He's now dropped back to 11th. So it's all change here rico having a look up the inside can't do it
16:50It is still carpe who has the slightest advantage over ferroni
16:55Oh
16:58Brian uriarte had a big moment there. What happened? He's really trying he's trying very hard
17:04I was about to say he had he brought out the red flags in fp1 because he had a massive crash
17:09At turn 17 he and to quote him sent it into the final corner
17:14Uh hit the bumper that's there on the exit and uh went over the handlebars and his bike was in the middle of the tracks
17:19They had to red flag it. Uh, he sent it nearly twice on this lap alone
17:24He is definitely trying very very hard. He's now down in 12th place
17:27It tucked big time on him then didn't he was uh, he did remarkably well to save it, but it's still peroni
17:34Who now I think he picks up?
17:35He's actually the first time that he's actually uh led this race
17:39He might have done fractionally before he had the long neck penalty, but he certainly has recovered from that
17:44as
17:45Did alvaro carpe?
17:47Rico, salmela in third place
17:50But they've got vader pretta patama
17:53Pressuring them very hard
17:55Morelli watch ladies and gents is up into seventh place. Now. He's a 17th place. Sorry
18:01He's nine seconds still off the lead, but I reckon he's going to pick off milan pavalec
18:07But then he's got a big task to get to lia rammersdorff for that first point
18:11Down the back straight, but it's not so straight. It is the 73 of valentine peroni 16 year old argentine that leads
18:20Looking back at the 57 of lamenzo zani
18:26But it's all action it's still
18:2815 down to rammersdorff as you say
18:31But so he's at the back of this group. Yeah paulek and morelli, uh off the back of there
18:36So if you're not in this group, you ain't getting a point basically goodness me
18:40I mean how brutal does it get in rookies cup?
18:42Well, you're right because morelli they've got you know, seven seconds to make up in seven laps and that's a tall order
18:49He's not uh, he's not lapping that fast. He's going very quick, but not that quick
18:53Um that you've got in this in the mix of this one as well plunk still there ariate
18:57Pons is in it. That's the best we've seen from him so far this year great stuff from him as look at them all fan out
19:03Uh through uh ruskin hook here and up to the gt chicane just brilliant, isn't it to watch and fader batama though?
19:10I mean, oh goodness me. He had a big slide through there
19:14Um, that was nearly a commentator's curse for the ages nearly made it onto
19:18some sports montage
19:21Things on some obscure channel somewhere
19:24But he got away with it, didn't he?
19:25He did get away with it. And in fact, it's given that bar a carpet a bit of a break
19:29Because obviously everybody else sort of backed off as they saw him nearly lose it
19:34And here's the 73 of valentine peroni now after the second place and patama. He's a third ahead of some malazanoni
19:41And there's chris and daniel jr just all over the back there of brian ariate
19:45The american is having a very good ride out. You've got to commend him ninth place is where he qualified
19:49This will happen to uriarte before peter. Look at this
19:51Out onto those they're called the mizano curves because they get progressively more violent the further out you go
19:56They're meant to deter going beyond track limits and then he ends up on the grass
20:00Yeah, look at that
20:02Absolutely pinned still but there's not a lot of grip on there
20:06No
20:07And then he nearly lost it. He neither had the front
20:10That was big, wasn't it? That was big
20:13And brian's are quite deceptively tall as well, isn't he?
20:16So he's using those long limbs to the to his advantage
20:19You know, I wonder whether it's possible that some dust got on the front wheel from that that excursion
20:25You would think that the centrifugal force would throw it all off
20:28But it was a really strange a big big tuck wasn't it?
20:31But it was a really strange a big big tuck wasn't it big time he's up to eight now as a reality
20:37So i'm sure within no time at all six laps left. He'll be coming back through here
20:41The rider's come through holger heider
20:43The right hander before the left to the double left and long long sweep up to the gt chicane as well
20:49This is it where you want to set up a final three corner move because that's basically what the gt chicane is in it
20:55turns 16 17 and 80
20:57Yeah, that's right. There are there are two places on the track which are really quick six six speed
21:02There's the back sort of straight
21:04Which is uh, 217 kilometers an hour and then the front well the front straight here. You only just get up into six
21:12Actually, but as you say that section you were talking about matt those fast fast left handers leading back to the start and finish
21:19That's 221 kilometers an hour slightly quicker
21:23than the straight
21:25That they're coming to now
21:27Keep your eye on the 27 rico salmela. They're just uh sitting very very touch wood comfortably
21:34Behind alvaro carpe. I've never seen rico so determined as I have in this weekend
21:39He really wants that string of bad luck to end. He wants the podium and he wants the win here
21:44And if you're still talking miles an hour, it's 217 kilometers 135 miles an hour here before you flick it
21:51Into the left hander. Oh, I can see the 16 of joel pons has gone down
21:55Unfortunately, that's been a great ride from him a huge shame to see because I think he's made a big step
22:00In his riding for rookies cup this weekend. There he is. Okay. He's all okay
22:04You're right
22:04You know
22:05He has taken a big step because he's an enormously talented rider
22:08He just hasn't been able to get to grips with it seemed to have happened this weekend
22:12But unfortunately now has gone a step back as well
22:15Well, then we have carpe out front that very distinctive style
22:19We're looking back from him at peroni the argentinian salmela's in third pratama still there in fourth place
22:26He's not as fresh as some of these other riders
22:28He doesn't compete in the european talent couple junior gp
22:31I think he must have gone home to indonesia in the three weeks between here and magello
22:35He is doing a stellar performance here as is pugliese looking up his inside there for fifth
22:42But it's with four laps remaining now it is
22:46alvaro carpe on the 83
22:48Who leads from peroni salmela?
22:51Fratama pugliese iriata. Go on put your money down man. Who's it gonna be?
22:56I'm gonna say it's gotta be alvaro carpe. He's just riding that wave of confidence lately junior gp wins
23:03He's so determined more than ever. He's like he's like a proper little shark, isn't he?
23:07He can smell the blood in the water of the championship leader not here and he wants to grasp it with both hands
23:12But what about salmela? Yeah. No, you know, you have no idea what you're talking about. It's valentine peroni
23:18all the way
23:20With rico second and alvaro third. Oh, there we go. But what about this guy? He's not a dutch tribute
23:26It's brian iriata. That's his distinctive orange helmet there. He's back up into fifth place
23:32Will he send it for the win or send it at the scenery?
23:35He tried twice to do the latter, but fortunately kept it up, right?
23:40Yeah, and you're looking back at the 27 of rico salmela in second place. You're on board with carpe
23:48Just hitting the rev limiter there before he flicks it into the left hander you can hear the engine stutter
23:55In sixth gear
23:58Just nurse putama out of the way there then coming through no second invitation needed
24:06Look at this salmela going for the lead. Oh through the inside of the fastest section of the track almost
24:12Well, we're on the fastest corners at least goodness me. That was brilliant. This is even better for carpe
24:16But what about ariate where's he come from?
24:19He was off the track and then he had a big tuck
24:21You you think you're supposed to that's upset your confidence. It hasn't upset it at all
24:25Is it it's completely set the hit the reset button completely and here he is. We're looking forward from him. It's salmela
24:32Versus carpe out front but ariate as well and truly join the party once again
24:37But look at the gaggle of riders behind them looking to pick up the pieces if any
24:42Misfortune befalls the riders out front chris and daniel jr. Well in for the hunt for this one
24:47There's 70 there. What a performance this is from him
24:51yeah, and uh, and
24:53Alvaro said to dominica, you know, there's no plan and uh,
24:57And I know that uh, brian ariate said the same thing to me when I spoke to him after practice yesterday
25:01He said you can have a plan but these races just get crazy and the plan goes completely out
25:05You've just got to go for it. Yeah, quite right
25:08It doesn't matter where you are. You can't factor in the plans of 23 other riders
25:12How on track can you hear they come then down the back straight look at that how fast again rico?
25:18That's the kind of aggression we want to see from that pocket rocket, but he nearly overcooks it not quite though
25:24He runs right onto the blue keeps it pinned and he maintains a leap of how long not long enough blue again
25:30But like I said, that's not the green thing because anyway, it's alvaro. Can't pay us the run again
25:35But he's got brian ariate right on his tail. This is great stuff
25:39I hope it stays as clean as it's been so far because this is racing at its finest clean hard moves
25:46No, real massive dangerous wild shenanigans going on
25:50But look at this the two ultra fast right handers coming up then
25:55It's still 10 riders still within a second
25:59Goodness me and look at that pratama through again into fourth place
26:04How much corner speed does carpet carry through there?
26:07They've really got to do something about that
26:09Otherwise they're gonna have no chance to overtake him into these final three turns. That's right
26:13It's if he gets it right if he's that quick through there that perfect
26:17And he doesn't make a mistake at the last corner. Surely he's got this one
26:20But anyway two laps remaining ariate second place, but for how long rico's up is inside two laps to go
26:28It's all on the table peter and moodley who looks so good earlier on is now back at the 10th place
26:33Oh, goodness me. That's a real shame for him. I was looking forward to seeing him up front again
26:38But he's still able to pick up any pieces that may be swept away from any shenanigans out front here
26:45They come onto the back straight again then right? There's the penultimate. Oh and somebody's off
26:50Daniel jr. But didn't he get a long lap penalty warning already? I'm not sure
26:56So he could be in trouble unfortunately, okay, right down the back straight
27:00It is the 83 of alvaro carpe, but then rico salmela then the 73 of valentine peroni
27:09Oh my goodness, there's nothing in this is there no really really not
27:12A lap and a half remaining. This is a high speed ultra high speed game of chess asan is built
27:19For safer bikes like this basically these days. I mean, they're just absolutely ragging them around these corners a bit of negative
27:26positive camber to keep the
27:28Tied right in and look at this double right hander there and like a slingshot out onto this little squirt before the final
27:35Few corners here we go. Then a dress rehearsal for the final lap coming up
27:40Yeah, let's say as you said, you know alvaro is so good through here. Can he do it perfectly?
27:45Or is he going to show the other guys what he's capable? Oh my goodness. Wow
27:49He is so good. Matt, isn't he? You're so right. He's so good there now get this perfect
27:54And no one's going to get past him surely
27:56Goodness me. How about that for some moves through there pugliese up the inside of vader potama? That was brilliant
28:02So there was your dress rehearsal if carpe repeats that he's got the win
28:07But the trouble is there's a 17 corners before then well, that's right
28:11And he's shown the other guys what he can do, hasn't he?
28:13So they all know that they can't let him do that because he is just so good and up the inside is peroni
28:20He's trying but there it is carpe. Just rails it around the outside
28:24There's the alternate line as you spoke about with colin via into the strubbing here
28:28Uriarte up the inside of I think that's zanny there as well
28:31It is the italian from about outside the top five battling for the podium here
28:36And all up into sixth gear down the back straight here as I said up to
28:42217 kilometers an hour 135 miles an hour
28:46Look at that. Oh, it's peroni versus carpe, but peroni backs out carpe is on a mission here
28:52but surely that they don't want to let
28:55Carpe lead do they in the last corners because he is so good there
28:59I've come to say yeah, they've got to get past him. I think here we go
29:02Then some big overtaking opportunities coming up. You've got to hang it out wide here and send it up the inside
29:07But carpe looks to go on his line. He does but does he do it well enough?
29:11Yes, he does. So here we go. Then the double right hander the slingshot onto the back straight
29:16We've got all the haider coming up one of my favorite corners on the calendar. Here we go. Peter
29:20It's peroni peroni's gonna do it. He's going to pass carpe. He's going up the inside there. Look at that. What a move
29:26He's a move but carpe is coming back
29:41Potava comes through to third place. Come on lads. Bariati's gonna take the win. He does
29:48Who's got it then third it's peroni
29:51Peroni
29:53Goodness me ariate wins from nearly high sided to the moon and salmela just he was
30:01Oh my goodness
30:03Wow, so carpe wow
30:06Sick sick. Wait. I said he was gonna win didn't I? I don't know what i'm talking about. I was completely wrong
30:11You're right. Well, I didn't call because I had peroni to win it over ariate, but you know, well goodness me
30:19What a finish that was you didn't know where to look so much was happening
30:23Uh, we're looking at mr. No plan b marco morelli who finished 40 to be disappointed with himself, but that's a good comeback
30:30Ariate from yeah a quick switch to riding motocross temporarily. Yeah, and a big lust for the front end slide
30:38He didn't nearly high side himself to the win. That was completely wrong. Apologies for that. Yeah. Wow
30:44I
30:46Mean
30:47And just you know, they were like it was a pack of about five of them, wasn't it? Rico samela peroni?
30:55Ariate and ariate just had it on that run into the last left-hander
31:00God, what a what a move that was. I mean, you're absolutely right. They
31:04Carpe gave the game away. They uh, they knew what he had in that in that final left hander
31:09That's right. They knew they couldn't and moodily came up to fifth two, you know, he was back there
31:13What did I say in tenth place, you know?
31:16Yes, they knew that they couldn't let him lead through that into that last left-hander because he's so strong there
31:23And samela back on the podium then so when was his last podium? It was the malt race one. So rico
31:30Was sixth in the championship. We'll see whoever he ends up with the points difference now
31:34What a move that was and ariate will have taken over at the top of the standings with that win
31:41Yeah
31:42And I think the only person who didn't finish was it. Joel tongs the only one. Uh,
31:47Yes
31:48We have a long lap penalty for kj monignane for the shortcut of turn 17. That means running across the chicane
31:55um, so that's pushed him down to
31:57uh 19th, I think
32:00Wow, what a ride that was the final lap was sensational. I mean
32:05And and clean too, wasn't it? You know, there was no elbowing. Look at the here. Here we go again
32:09So ariante's in third there. Yeah, and I you know, and I think peroni's kind of got it from there
32:16Look at then rico's just comes up the inside brilliant
32:20Oh, and he just parks it rico parks it in front of carpe leaves it nowhere to go zanny goes way wide
32:26And rico, unfortunately just didn't have the momentum to
32:30then stuff up the inside of ariate
32:34What happened to patama because he must have lost the draft. Oh, he bashed into
32:38Uh carpe, that's why carpe lost. Uh podium then he uh tried to cut across I think
32:45Well because as I saw it and I may be wrong but our patama was kind of in third place
32:50I thought yeah going in there, but it all it looked
32:54I mean i'll have to see it again, but it looked like patama was taking a fairly ordinary line out of there from his position
33:00um and uh carpe wanted to sort of
33:04Cut in over across but um
33:07Yeah, he's fortunate. But uh, there you go. The penalty for him was sixth place in the end. Yeah
33:12I mean it looked to me as though
33:15You know ariate was the was the man he actually had if it was a plan he had it going into that last game
33:21But I thought peroni was going to be able to go with him
33:24Then he he didn't rico got the advantage and then peroni got the drive out went for tama
33:30And maybe as you say carpe sort of had they're coming together. Whatever. I don't know
33:35It'd be great to watch it about six times on it
33:37Yeah, rico's happy with that. He's smiling. That's good to see because he's not normally a smiler
33:41He's normally miffed with anything that's a win, but uh great to see him there
33:45Um doing that there's valentin peroni not sure if we mentioned at the start of the show
33:48But he's had a bit of a growth spurt in the last three weeks. Um, so he's actually put on
33:53Uh, yeah a little bit of height. I'm assuming that transpires into a bit of weight as well
33:58um
33:59Yeah, he's he's about level height with me now, which makes you feel concerned
