Welcome back to the F1 Fun Test, at the F1 Fun Test, on Twitter, Gmail, Instagram, etc. I just wanted to come to you all this week with a quick pit stop pod to keep you updated on all the things we're doing here at the F1 Fun Test to keep it fun for you all. We've done it. We've worked it out. In three long weeks, we've got one to go until we finally are in Baku, lights out, racing away in Formula One once again. Really, I'm just checking in with you all today to let you know that the crew chief has signed on board to be the number two or the number one, however you want to look at it, on this podcast. He's got the knowledge, so maybe he's the number one. I've got the ... I'm not quite sure, so maybe I'm the number two. Yes, the crew chief, Connor Gagnon, has signed on once again to be part of this show officially going forward. I want you all to give him a look. Follow him at ConnorGagnon on Instagram. That's C-O-N-N-O-R-G-A-G-N-O-N on Instagram. He's where you want to go for all your real technical insights and analysis. If you follow me on the F1 Fun Test, you're going to get silliness. You're going to get finger paintings. You might get a taste of the fun side of F1, but if you're looking for the crew chief, if you're looking for Connor, he is at Connor Gagnon on Instagram, C-O-N-N-O-R-G-A-G-N-O-N. I'm really thankful that he is going to keep doing this with us because this is really a growing community. I'm very happy to have all of you listeners out there on board and to be doing this in such an exciting time for Formula One. Like I said, we are headed towards Baku. We finally made it. I'd like, if you think of it, why don't you send me an email or a tweet or an Instagram, whatever you do on there. Let me know how these three weeks were for you. How did you pass your time? How did you get your Formula One fix? There's a lot of silliness on Instagram. There's a lot of silliness. Those drivers look like they sure enjoyed their breaks, but I'm sure that they are ready to get back in business, as I'm sure you're ready to watch some qualifying and racing once again. It's been a long time coming, and Baku is on the menu. Before we get to Baku, though, Connor and I are going to be sitting down talking all about the 2005 U.S. Grand Prix. Look for that episode out this Wednesday, and following that, hopefully Friday, Saturday, we will have an episode for you previewing the Baku Grand Prix, and then after the weekend, I'll be back to talk all about what happened, what went down, and how the race weekend went for everyone. Now, the chief isn't going to be able to be on every single pod, every single episode. He does have a life, as I always like to say, but he's going to try to be on here for the pregame, for the postgame, for the banter, and then he's going to leave me out here to flounder on my own, learning about the cars, and the drivers, and the teams, but very exciting times here at the Formula One FunCast. I am actually at a brand new studio office in San Diego, California. New studio. The first 10 podcasts were done from the edge of my dresser in my bedroom, with my cat licking at my feet and making all sorts of noises, so it's nice to be here in this new space, new studio. It took a little time for me to get adjusted to the acoustics. If this one sounds funny, please let me know, but we are stepping in the right direction, and I'm just so glad all of you have decided to join us on this journey and help us get to where we are now, so if you have friends out there, if you know people who are interested in Formula One, if you have kids that are just joining and you want a positive place for them to come to listen to all things Formula One, this is the place for them, so I'm trying to keep these pitstops quicker than a Red Bull stop, but I do have some thoughts about what's going to happen over the next racing week. I have a feeling, and we'll talk about it more this week, but is this going to be a reassertion of Red Bull dominance in Baku? I believe it is. I think it is. Maybe Chief's going to get on here and talk me down off a ledge, but as far as I can tell, those straightaways are ripe for some Red Bull overtakes, and I don't think they'll have to be doing much overtaking at all because it's hard to overtake when you're leading the race, so I would like it if you could send me, and I'm ready to start reading your emails, reading your tweets on the air, so hit me up, F1FunCast at gmail.com, that's all one word, or on Instagram and Twitter. Let me know. Give me your predictions. I want some predictions to read on air during the Baku preview. Hit us up. If we read yours on the air, we'll make sure to let you know. We'll tweet you. We'll write you back. Who's coming in first? Who's surprising us? Who's going to have a rough weekend? What do you think? That's all on deck for the Baku preview coming out later this week, and once again, give Conor a follow on Instagram. Welcome him aboard to the family. It's a growing family. We're picking up followers left and right, and I think with his expertise and my whatever it is, we're going to be on our way, and we're really thankful that you listened again. Can't thank you enough. Can't thank everybody for being a part of this. We've been in contact with some people who write their own articles. We've been in contact with other podcasters in Formula One. We're going to be bringing you some amazing content, some new people, some new voices, interviews, and co-ops, so with that all out of the way, let me just reiterate to give us a follow. Send us an email. We want your thoughts. This is an interactive space for all. Send your thoughts our way, and we will be talking about them on air, Baku preview, Friday. Look for it. I'm getting the signal. It's time for me to get out of here.
