It is the best, the elite of motor sports, the thing that everyone is aiming for. The stakes are so incredibly high it doesn't scare you. Then it's not veg enough. From my Heart Radio and Sports Illustrated Studios, this is choosing sides one. Wow. Formula one is much more than a car race. It merges together man and machine in a rich people's playground where the line between life and death is razor thin. WHOA, this is off to a
dramatic start. I'm selling it right. Putting aside all of the theatrics, Formula one has captivated billions of people worldwide over the past seventy two years. However, it's only now gaining a serious foothold in the States. But even if you've already started watching F one, you might still be missing the nuances, the history, and the teams. I ask you this, do you even have a favorite driver? That's
where we come in. I'm Willie Herman, a walking pop culture encyclopedia and Formula one expert, and I'm Michael Costa, comedian, former pro tennis player, current Daily Show correspondent. And I'm just gonna be honest here, I have not seen five seconds of a Formula one race, Lily, What the heck am I doing here? Well, you're in the right place, Michael, because by the time we're done here, you'll not only be an F one whiz, but you'll be ready to declare your loyalty to a team and a driver. Who
are these drivers? Rich kids? I'm very interested in the steering? Is it just men when they say box? Does that mean pit daddy issues? Daddy issues galore. We'll get into the rules, technology and on track rivalry. Shut up, but we'll also get into the salacious stories you need to know to truly understand the sport. Jesus witness, intimidation and conspiracy. We are off to a great start. By the end of our time together, Michael will pick his team and driver.
He seems like a whiny over ACTI team principle, and hopefully you will too. I am willing to be convinced. I'm willing to to become a fan of the sport. But if I don't just give that away, listen to Choosing Sides F one on the I Heart radio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Is that what they say in the podcast? Bas I'm a TV guy I don't know,
