All right, one of the McLarens just came in the box.

Again, I need some information.

It's raining hard.

I know it's going to keep raining.

I think we should probably think about wets.

It's raining hard here now.

What is it going to do?

Copy that, Robin.

We are watching it.

You are still the fastest car.

Get ready, guys.

It might be a last minute call.

[car engine sounding]

A sustained rain.

It's a sustained rain.

Copy.

Pit now for rains.

Pit now.

[machinery sounding]

Car off!

Car off at 14!

Pit now.

Pit now.

Pit lane.

Slick.

It will be slick.

All clear, all clear.

[engine revving]

Watch for the pits closed light.

Full course yellow.

[car engine sounding]

Hey, Robin, you'll need to push.

This is going to be a short yellow.

[announcer]

Where's the train, please?

Where's the back of the train?

The field have been spread out, Robin.

Your next car is going into 5 right now.

Pace car is in 12.

Class split is ongoing.

Pass any TC cars you get to.

Back of the line.

Turn 5.

Copy that.

You are P15.

P15.

Everybody ahead of you is for position.

15 minutes left.

Going green this time.

Be ready.

[announcer]

It's not fun in the car when you're

driving in those conditions.

That is not enjoyable.

It's extremely risky.

It's extremely uncomfortable.

You are driving blind.

You either step up and extract every ounce of performance

out of your entire being, or you give up, cave in,

go around in circles, and make up numbers.

I've always been incredibly motivated to choose the former.

Green flag.

Green flag.

Green flag.

[car engine sounding]

[music playing]

It's very hard to describe to somebody

what you get from driving a racing car at the limit.

It's about a set of emotions and a set of feelings.

The feeling that you get driving the car.

The feeling that you get competing.

Working with your team to maximize what you have.

That's kind of all unbeatable.

When I got to the end of the weekend,

I wanted to know in my heart that I'd given 100%.

And the feeling that comes with that

is actually what is the drug.

It's what's the motivator.

I still want to go as fast as I've always done.

I still want to put the car on the edge.

I still want to bang doors with people

or go wheel to wheel with them.

I know I can't replace motor racing

with anything else in my life.

When that goes away, I'm not sure how else

you could replace that.

That's the first time you've been out there

in a competitive environment, where the lap times actually

count.

Right.

And you were in at the deep end, because you were the second car

out the pits, with quite a lot of cars that left behind you.

Right.

Hindsight's an easy thing.

It's done.

You qualified.

You are where you are.

Right.

The most important thing now is just to think about tomorrow.

Think about the race, OK?

And what I really want you to think about tonight

is procedurally, when you're going to come in the pits.

If you come into a busy pit lane, the way that you come in

and the way that you park is going

to be absolutely critical toour ability to service the car.

And to be honest, a lot of that will be on you in the moment.

[machinery sounding]

[car engine sounding]

There's no question.

Sitting on the grid at Daytona, the first round

of the championship, with all the people there.

It's easy to allow that to affect you.

When I went on the grid and talked to Frank in the car,

and I looked into his eyes, in his helmet.

I knew he was not in the right frame of mind for the job

that he was about to do.

Right.

Listen to me.

Uh-huh?

Relax.

Shut your eyes.

Have some deep breaths.

Visualize the lap.

Just relax now, OK?

You've got a few minutes before you're going to roll off.

You're quite amped up.

Just chill.

Just chill out, OK?

You're going to be fine.

Enjoy it.

All right, I will.

Have fun.

I will.

Drive head's up for the first lap.

Settle down.

Get into it, OK?

All right.

Be safe.

Enjoy it.

Let's go, Frank!

If you can keep that Porsche between you and the TCRs,

it'd be good.

[car engine sounding]

Inside.

Inside.

Inside.

Clear low.

Clear all around.

Into the bus stop.

Clear by 3.

[music playing]

Guys, lost it at the kink.

I'm OK.

Hit hard.

Copy.

The immediate feeling is one of letting the team down.

The fact that Andrew and Robin aren't going to get in the car.

The fact that the team worked incredibly

hard to give us a great car.

And I made a mistake, and screwed it up for everybody.

Critically, from a technical point of view,

he just turned the car in a little bit

early, which put him at a shallow angle

at the apex of the corner.

But we're talking about over 100 miles an hour.

And now as he tracked through the corner,

he found himself running out of road.

[brakes squealing]

What's really important is you go back,

and you look at the build-up to that.

We've got to approach the weekend

with the right mentality.

[car engine sounding]

[music playing]

There's a lot of things we don't...

What do you want to do?

[machinery sounding]

We're here, Sebring!

It's the Vikings!

Yes!

[car horn honking]

[car engine sounding]

[music playing]

You can go back to light brake.

Light brake!

[music playing]

In today's environment, I would have been diagnosed as ADHD.

And I would have been put on Ritalin or some other drug.

Instead, I had to learn to cope.

And I think that is actually an advantage.

I can immerse myself in anything and everything.

As soon as you get in the car, there's

no time for external thoughts.

It's the most focused that I ever am.

And it's the only time in my life

that all the noise just goes away.

I was in my 40s when I really started racing.

And I'm now 61.

As a club racer that's won championships, and things

like that, you almost don't know what

you don't know when you get into the highest level of the sport.

This is my first year racing at this level.

[music playing]

[car engine sounding]

[music playing]

Immediately, you have that sinking feeling.

You've just had this terrible news.

In that moment, all I wanted to do was just walk away.

It was very obvious at the beginning of the year,

he was struggling.

In the first three races of the season,

he had fairly major incidents, which

resulted in our inability to then turn that

into a race result.

[music playing]

In those first 3 races, clearly, he had a very difficult time.

And we all had a difficult time as a result of that, as a team.

Everybody started to question what

we were doing, why we were doing it,

were we doing the right thing?

But in fairness to Frank, he didn't waver

in terms of his commitment.

Lesser people would have found it very easy to walk away.

[car engine sounding]

OK, can you hear that, when you picked up the throttle?

Yeah.

Did you hear that?

Yeah.

No.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Get rotation, then power.

OK, there's some time there.

There's some time in these two corners.

And I wouldn't do anything any different.

Where you've gotten to now is a big step forward.

Don't get greedy.

This is now your new baseline.

Keep doing what you're doing.

Don't change that.

For you to move forwards, you have to prioritize one thing

at a time in one corner.

You have to prioritize.

You can't just gain time by going:

"I'm going to brake later.

I'm going to carry more speed.

And I'm going to get to power earlier."

That's not how this works.

You need to go out there with a priority in your mind

in that corner, and that's your priority.

I'm going to drive the same on the way in.

I'm going to brake at the same point.

I'm going to roll the same speed in,

but I'm going to try and pick up the power earlier.

OK.

And if you focus your mind on that one thing,

there's every chance that you're going to go out,

and you're going to gain some lap time because of it.

Uh, toe it out, uh...

[DISTANT CROWD MURMURS AND CAR ENGINES]

We're in a series where you can put 2 of the highest level

pros in the car, which means that I'm qualifying

against guys that have been doing this for 10 years

or guys that grew up in Go-Karts.

One minute, Frank.

[engine sounding]

Something fell into my feet.

Talk to me, Frank.

What is it?

What was going on with that?

It's the defrost duct.

The plastic defrost duct, it fell down into his feet.

[car engine sounding]

OK, I'll do what I can.

I'm going to pit now to check.

OK, Frank, let's go.

[engine revving]

Frank, there's not enough time to get another lap in.

Just bring it in and park it.

So I'm pissed off, but understand why I'm pissed off.

I'm pissed off, because when we had a problem,

we had no idea how to figure it out and fix it.

And it was something simple.

And as a result, we're at the back of the grid,

and the guy didn't even do any timed laps.

And as I said, it's the underlying issues

that are beneath all of that, that

are what upsets me about it.

So I just think that everybody just

needs to fucking pull their finger out of their arse

and realize that yes, we have limitations.

But if we're going to perform at a better level,

and improve where we are, and go forwards,

then we're going to have to pull together and operate as one.

Let's get to the bottom of whywe looked like a fucking circus

out there.

Because none of us on an individual level

are circus people.

We're all...

We've been at the top of our games.

We know how to fucking perform.

So there's no reason for us all to pull together and be

a circus, other than we have a lack of process

or a lack of clarity on what we're

going to do in the moment.

So we need to figure out what went wrong and fix it.

Simple as that.

I want that to be done in an unemotional fashion.

And that's all I've got to say.

Any questions?

[music playing]

OK, Frank, we will pit this lap.

Pit now.

Driver change.

Copy that.

[car engine sounding]

About 5 more laps, Andrew, 5 more laps.

P15.

To win a motor race is an impossibly difficult task.

There's so many factors that you have to consider just

to win one race.

The performance of the car.

The reliability of the car.

The ability of the drivers to keep the car on the track,

to go forwards, to race, to not have contact.

Your fuel strategy.

Your fuel economy.

When to make your pit stops.

When to do your driver changes.

The weather.

The more you look at it, you realize

that to actually put it all together and get a race win

is impossibly difficult.

OK, entering pit lane.

Pit lane.

[car engine sounding]

Move your hands!

Move your hands!

[machinery sounding]

[car engine starting]

Hold.

Hold.

Hold.

Hold.

Hold.

Go!

All clear.

[engine revving]

[team discussing strategy]

It's probably the hardest situation

that you'll find yourself in.

Communicating between the pits and the car,

when there's inclement weather coming through that's

likely not going to last for very long.

Trying to combine those views, whilst in the meantime,

the driver's trying to keep the car on the track.

There's a hell of a lot going on in that situation.

It's part of the thrill of the whole game.

Robin, we've got to make a choice here.

We are currently P1.

29 minutes left.

Pits are open now.

We've got to stop, no matter what.

Think you can get around on slicks?

It's a monsoon down here.

Nobody's going to be able to drive in this.

It's a deluge down here.

Copy that.

So if we pit you now, put rains on?

Open GS.

Pits are open GS.

[car engine sounding]

Get ready.

How many laps are we good for in green minutes?

Hey, Rob, will you get that rain?

28 minutes left in the race.

Pits are open right now.

Do we put rains on?

How many minutes are we good for under green running?

Michael.

I can't see what it's doing off into the pits.

It's raining hard in the boot.

But I can't see how they're going to go

green with everybody on slicks.

If we put rains on, it looks like we're

going to be back in the pits in the next 10 minutes.

It's your call, but I'm happy to stay

on slicks if everybody else is.

Everybody else already pitted.

We need fuel.

I understand that.

But what tires are they on?

Slicks!

They are all on slicks.

No point putting wets on if this is going to dry out here

in five minutes.

I'm in the last corner.

Tell me what to do.

Pit.

Pit now.

Pit now.

What are we putting on?

[music playing]

Copy.

In pit lane.

What are we putting on?

[interposing voices]

A lot of tire wall damage, so I can't see it going green.

Let's wait and see what happens to the weather.

I don't think we should put rains.

Pit...

Stay out.

Stay out.

It's too late, he's coming in!

Fuel!

OK, OK.

Put slicks on.

Put slicks on, guys.

Oh my fucking god.

[music intensifies]

No!

No tires!

No!

No tires, guys, no tires.

Get ready to push it.

Push it back.

Not yet, not yet, not yet.

Hold.

Hold.

Hold.

Go, go, go!

Go!

OK.

OK.

OK.

OK.

Stop.

Go, go.

All clear to go.

Pull.

[engine revving]

Mercedes AMG and Riley Motorsports,

please welcome the team's entrant,

the one, the only, Bill Riley!

[cheering and applause]

There you have it, folks, your winning team.

Drivers, trophies up in the air!

Let them hear it!

[music playing]

In truth, nobody actually cares about anybody other

than who's won the race.

That's the only team that get any credit.

They get to stand on the podium, on the top step.

They get to spray the champagne.

They get the interviews.

They get the TV time.

They get all the messages of support and congratulations.

And everybody else is commiserating

and talking about how they could have done better.

It was very obvious to me that we

didn't function effectively enough in the pits

to get the job done and win a race.

I was determined to make a change to that.

One of the great life lessons that I learned

was following a prolonged period of low time in my life,

when I couldn't get my racing career moving.

I had really exhausted all of my avenues

and all of my possibilities.

I literally did not have enough cash

to go and put gas in my car.

And once I'd gotten to this point where I was shit or bust,

I really questioned where I was going with my career.

But on this particular day, I was walking back

through the paddock to my car.

And I was still in my race suit, but everybody had gone.

And I was kind of like the only guy there.

I'll never forget.

I stopped, and I soaked in, in that moment,

all of the experiences that I'd had

over the previous several days, and the feelings,

and the emotions that had gone with that.

And in a moment, I captured that in my mind.

And I thought, there is nothing else for me.

This is it.

There's no point in looking for something else, because this

is it.

He will see the green flag first as he

comes through the final corner.

The pace car peels off into the pit lane.

Fabulous sight as these GS cars head to the line!

The green flag waved.

[car engines sounding]

We're going to get a yellow.

There's a couple cars out.

Copy that.

Frank, you're doing a really good job out there.

I know it's hot in the car, and I know

you're getting a bit tired.

Just keep digging, and try to keep as consistent as you can.

Oxygenate the blood on the back straight.

Lots of big, deep breaths.

Full course yellow.

Full course yellow.

Being in that metal box for that period of time on a hot day

is quite a lonely experience.

It's very noisy.

It beats you up physically.

Every metal surface you can touch is roasting hot.

And you're roasting hot.

Your heart rate increases, increases, increases.

And finally, you're just overwhelmed by the heat.

But in all of that, you've got to try and manage

your heart rate.

And manage your breathing.

And more importantly, your mental state.

Because that's what allows you to keep your focus

and get the job done.

[music playing]

[car engine sounding]

We're sitting ducks.

The Mustang's quick off the corner.

The Aston's railroading me here.

A good pit stop by the Rebel Rock team

has got Robin Liddell just outside the top 10.

And fired up.

Are the front runners just driving away from us?

I can see the Volt car doesn't really look any quicker,

but I can't see further up than that.

You are maintaining your gap.

You have about a 7 second split to the leader.

This Aston behind me is a fucking weapon.

Spots of rain on the back straight.

Spots of rain.

I think we should consider whether we

pit as soon as we can to get out of this situation

that we're in.

The car is not very raceable.

The balance is OK, but it's not very raceable.

Copy that.

53 minutes to go.

So as far as the GS cars, I reckon another eight laps.

OK, Robin, pit this lap.

Pit now.

Yep, 10-4.

[CAR ENGINE SOUNDING AND MUSIC PLAYING]

Pit lane.

Robin Liddell comes in to the pit lane, out of that battle.

Wasn't expecting that Shea Adam.

They are doing fuel and left side tires for Robin Liddell.

As the fueling is going on, I wonder

if they're going to run around and change the rights as well.

They have sticker tires up on the wall.

No!

Hands have gone up.

They are doing left side tires only.

And Robin leaves.

Drop the car.

Drop the car.

Clear the hose.

Go.

Go.

Interesting.

That's a really good strategy.

If there is a full course caution now,

they will be able to stay out and run

to the end of the race, where everybody else is going to have

to come in and make a pit stop.

And when they do that, that will elevate the number 71 Chevrolet

Camaro to the lead of the race.

Reset fuel.

Verify.

Copy.

752.

752.

[car engines sounding]

OK, Robin, last car just pitted.

You are now P1.

P1.

And the pits are closed, full course yellow!

Full course yellow.

All bets are off.

When you're in a really close battle

towards the end of a race, you have

to be totally solid mentally, totally

committed to the job at hand, to hold

your resolve in that situation.

It is an absolute battle of wills and wits,

and I love that.

You're just feeling enormous pressure in that moment

not to make a mistake.

That's where you can choke.

Who wants to be that person?

It's just a complete admission of failure, isn't it?

Total failure.

Safety car lights out.

Going green this time.

Going green this time.

Lights out.

OK, Robin, going green this time by.

Be ready.

[car engine sounding]

12 minutes left.

12 minutes.

Prepare for the restart.

Green flag.

Green flag.

Green flag.

[music playing]

This is great stuff on the restart.

The leaders are side by side, going into turn number 3.

Laps remaining?

5 laps.

Liddell two tenths of a second in the lead.

But that's all.

White flag this time around.

Robin Liddell has got 2.4 more miles

to claim a famous victory for Rebel Rock Racing.

Final lap.

Final lap.

Robin Liddell worked so hard to put this program together.

A fan favorite, the Camaro GT4.

It looks great.

It sounds great.

And it has paid dividends.

For the Chevrolet Camaro comes through the final corner now.

And it will be Robin Liddell and Frank DePew

who take a maiden victory for the Camaro in IMSA.

[cheering and yelling]

Awesome, man!

Awesome, awesome, awesome.

Killer job, Robin, killer job!

Unbelievable!

I can't believe we won that race.

I cannot believe we won it.

Congratulations to each and every one of you.

Massive effort.

Absolutely mega.

[music playing]

I normally get this sort of emotional comedown

after the race and suddenly just feel overwhelmed with emotion.

It's hard to describe where it comes from.

Good job.

Woo-hoo-hoo!

Yes!

Woo!

I can't really describe how I felt.

It was nothing like I've ever experienced before.

Woo!

Oh my god!

It's one of the most meaningful wins

that I've ever had in my entire career.

Where the team was, where the name has been.

To get the first win for the team and the name

of the team...

It means everything.

Yeah!

Woo!

[laughing]

This team means everything to me.

When you get back to the pits after winning a race like that,

you feel the energy and the emotion from all of them

collectively.

That can be quite overwhelming in the moment.

When you get the result then, when you get the success,

it just somehow vindicates.

It's like... I don't know.

It's just... I can't even put that bit of it into words.

I don't know.

I don't think it's the outside recognition I've ever

really been that fussed about.

The interaction you've had with the fans around the racetrack

and with your crew, that's actually what really matters.

Sometimes, I push the guys.

And sometimes, I don't thank them in the way that I should,

or make the effort to make them feel as valued as I actually do

feel about them.

When I feel like I've proved to the guys that I can hang on,

and I can grind it out, and I can get a result.

That, in a nutshell, is my thanks to them.

That's my demonstration of my commitment.

I like that responsibility.

There was a lot of work that went into this program.

We've been working on this really for arguably 3 years.

And to finally get here, with Frank especially,

in his first season...

He's had a very difficult start to the season.

That puts a lot of pressure on him.

But he's a true sportsman, and he's a team player.

And he hasn't wavered his support.

And he's focused his mind on getting better.

And I've worked very hard with him,

and he's worked very hard to get better.

And I think you saw the results of those efforts.

And hats off to him, because he's done a mega job.

I've never driven this track.

So Robin and I came here in a rental car

and drove around to show me the track.

Don't tell Avis.

We went pretty slow.

Anyway, but then I showed up here with the Camaro,

and I've never been on this track.

And it's a pretty daunting track.

To be at this point and to actually

win a race at this point, I think,

is a tall order and an amazing accomplishment.

[music playing]

Woo.

There he is!

There he is.

Tiny Joe.

Darrin!

A little bit left.

Straight.

[music playing over speaker]

You can do it.

Put your back into it.

[car engine sounding]

So excited about your win!

Sorry we missed you at Watkins.

That's pretty cool.

You nailed that.

Nailed the color scheme on that.

You've got to sign it for us.

it was great that you were able to keep Marcelli behind you.

Yeah, that was Mr. Robin.

He was killing it, wasn't he?

Yeah.

Marcelli had no chance.

With a hand out the window?

Yeah, yeah!

It was so hot.

My cool suit wasn't working.

I was just trying to get some air in there, yeah.

Pretty hot in that thing.

If I could have got my head out the window, I would have done.

If that caution didn't come out, you

would have beaten him by at least...

What was that?

If the caution didn't come out, you

would have beaten him by a lot more.

Yeah, but I like to stay honest.

It kept me honest.

I had to work a bit for it, which is always good.

I think... I heard that Paul Miller Racing took

all your stuff away.

Yeah.

They did.

In pit lane.

They did.

Yeah, right at the last minute.

All we had was a table.

And we went out and bought a TV so we could like,

watch the timing and scoring and stuff.

When you have the good fortune to do something

like we do in motorsport, there are

people watching that who care.

And there are people watching that who look up to you.

You have the ability when you're competing

to inspire people to a degree.

And it's not just about signing their hat

and giving them their hat back.

It's about taking time with them.

That can captivate a young imagination.

And that can actually give direction to somebody's life.

Those moments don't really leave you, to be honest.

All you can hope for is that you have not been wasteful

of your opportunity.

I am going to race in IMSA when I grow up.

When I was your age, I was walking

around talking to drivers, too, and then I

drove in IMSA, right?

So that can happen.

I want to drive in IMSA like howDylan Murry did, where he's 17,

and he's driving.

Dylan's a great guy.

His daddy raced.

I raced against his daddy, and now I race against him.

Yeah.

Yeah, Dylan's driving really well.

He's going to be a star of the future.

When you start racing, he'll be an old man!

So you can beat him when he's an old man.

You'll be the young gun.

Hang on, I'm doing a test.

The answers are all on here, this piece of paper.

Everything you need is going to be on this piece of paper.

You're probably putting everything on there, though.

All my complaining.

I just want the important shit.

Just all the complaining is going

to go on this piece of paper.

The back's going to be full.

I figured.

Andrew got out.

When he got out, he thought about it again.

He thought the car was pretty good, ready to go race.

And that's what they told me.

That's why I went and talked to him out the door,

before you could get in his head and tell him how great it was.

Oh yeah, it always does that.

That's normal.

You just have to adapt.

So yes.

So should we go, just run through it quickly

from the beginning?

I think my first complaint was the car didn't

ride the curbs very well.

Same thing that he described in 4.

I'm using 2nd through there the whole way.

But it's the same thing.

You feel like the car should just

remain in a steady state of push,

but then all of a sudden, the back

just kind of comes... you have a little, quick correction.

It's not a big slide.

It doesn't feel like wheelspin.

it just feels like the platform gives up or something, late.

So I've got more of a push to loose.

Through the uphill is mostly just push.

There's a big TC cut in the crest.

It cuts the engine completely out.

Well, that's why...

Can we do anything about that?

Well, no, and that's why I'm trying to run as little TC

as possible.

Now that being said, over a run and green flag running,

I think we'll be very strong.

But where we're maybe going to give up,

and where we need to be careful is...

Yeah, exactly.

Restart.

The ability to rotate the car.

To get inside somebody off a corner.

To go to power.

Because that's where we're struggling anyway.

Because if we get stuck behind people,

we're going to be a bit screwed, to be honest.

Because I still don't think this car, even as fast overall as it

is at the moment, I don't think it's a very raceable car still,

in terms of ability to pass people.

Yeah.

Let me get these guys going on this.

Thanks.

Yeah.

[car engines sounding]

[music playing]

I was concerned...

... that if we stopped under green, we would go a lap down,

and we wouldn't be able to get our track position back,

once it went yellow.

So, that's exactly what happened.

We stopped at the wrong time.

It's quite a difficult pill to swallow,

because the car was clearly fast enough to win.

And we were in a position where I think we could have won.

So I feel like it's a bit of a wasted opportunity.

But you cannot make mistakes at this level and win races.

In the moment, you don't necessarily

appreciate the opportunities that you've got in life.

As you get to the end of your career,

and you start looking back, you realize in some

regards how lucky you've been.

Our opportunities to have those results again in the future

are limited.

I think that's where some of the emotion

came from in the moment.

Ugh.

Should have gotten the earlier flight.

I thought we'd be celebrating.

[chuckles]

Right now I want to escape.

We could have won that race today.

[music playing]

You can't change your visceral or emotional reaction

to a situation like that.

But I've realized in my career over the years,

that if you take those emotions, and you channel them

positively, it can be a very, very powerful tool.

That same desire is what I've channeled

into producing some of the best race drives I've ever done.

[thunder]

When the race was rain delayed, they shortened the race.

It threw everything wide open.

Suddenly, you've got to think on your feet,

and I really like that.

It challenges people to perform in the moment,

to use their instincts to make decisions.

I like a bit of pressure.

Without that pressure, it's a little bit too easy.

It's a little bit too contrived.

[MUSIC - "THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER"]

My feeling is, if we can stay ahead of this car,

at 27 minutes, when our window opens,

we should probably pit and put slicks on and haul ass.

Because those guys are coming in regardless at some point.

I'm going to get ready.

OK, Frank, you're going to pit this lap.

Pit now.

Driver change.

[car engines sounding]

Copy that.

Pit lane.

Copy, Frank.

Loosen your belts.

Shut the car off on the steering wheel.

Pit box is a little wet, so do not overshoot the board.

[machinery sounding]

Drop the car.

Drop the car.

All clear, all clear.

[engine revving]

[announcer]

All right, one of the McLarens just came in the box.

Again, I need some information.

It's raining hard.

I know it's going to keep raining.

I think we should probably think about wets.

Pit now for rains.

Pit now.

Watch for the pits closed light.

Full course yellow.

I'm the first car behind the safety car.

The 69 is behind me.

Copy that.

69 is the leader.

Got the wave by.

Got the wave by.

Hey, Robin, you'll need to push.

This is going to be a short yellow.

Class split is ongoing.

Pass any TC cars you get to.

Back of the line.

Turn 5.

Copy that.

You are P15.

P15.

Everybody ahead of you is for position.

15 minutes left.

Going green this time.

Be ready.

Green flag.

Green flag.

Green flag.

[car engine sounding]

P7.

12 seconds behind the leader.

12 minutes remaining.

12 minutes remaining.

Come on, Robin.

Watch for a car off, driver's right.

[car engine sounding]

Full course yellow.

Oh, ho, ho.

Currently P4.

I told ya.

There's a lap down car in front of me,

the silver Merc, the 57 car.

Copy.

How much time is remaining in the race?

Currently, there's 5 minutes and 30 seconds remaining.

If it does go green this next lap, it will be one lap.

[car engines sounding]

OK, Robin, going green this time by.

[CAR ENGINE SOUNDING AND MUSIC PLAYING]

Green, green, green!

Green flag.

Green flag.

[interposing voices]

It's taking your entire self and in that moment, having 100%

focus on just the job in hand.

You are absolutely giving of yourself

at every corner in every possible way.

All of your senses are just utterly honed and sharpened

in that moment.

You can't describe that to somebody.

It's just a feeling that you have.

Out of the carousel now into the kink for the final time.

McLaren.

McLaren.

Mercedes.

And here comes Robin Liddell!

He's got a

fantastic run out of the kink!

He's gone to 2nd!

4th to 2nd around the outside in the wet at Canada corner!

Stop the presses.

Stop the voting.

That's the overtake of the year right there.

There will not be a better one.

He's not going to win it, I don't think.

Here comes the McLaren.

The McLaren will win.

No, he won't!

He won't!

I don't believe it!

Liddell's won it.

Liddell's won it at the line.

Liddell has won it.

Did we get the win?

Did we get the win?

Robin, you just won this fucking race!

Waa-ha-ha-ha!

Yess!

Yes.

Unbelievable.

Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Liddell wins it by 0.070 of a second.

The best.

The best final lap you will ever see!

Unbelievable, guys!

Unbelievable.

Thanks, guys!

Mega!

Mega!

That win was all you.

14 positions in 15 minutes to the win.

That's all you, buddy.

Fuck me, I came close to waddingit up a couple of times though.

That was awesome!

Yes!

Ha ha!

[music playing]

Woo!

[cheering]

Yeah!

Oh my god!

[music playing]

My mentality when I got in that race car

is: I am going to drive to the front.

I know that's not a coincidence.

I made a conscious decision, and that's exactly what happened.

This is the element of the human mind and spirit

that I don't understand.

I know that there are moments when it could have gone wrong.

I could have ended up in a crumpled heap.

What's the difference between keeping your foot in it

at 150 miles an hour in the pouring rain, versus crashing

into the back of somebody?

I don't know.

I don't have the answer to that.

But honestly, if I knew the answer to it,

maybe I wouldn't do it anymore.

To me, the unique challenge of driving a racing car

is being in that moment and keeping

a grip of your mental state.

When you've had to fight for that

win, if you've somehow given everything of yourself.

I feel like I need to have fought for it.

I've earned it somehow.

I don't understand it, but I think

it's arguably what drives me.

And of course, the luster fades quite quickly.

And here we are back at another race weekend,

and we try and do it all again.

And that's just the nature of the circus.

We're on the road, and we're at the next event.

And I know it's a cliche, but you're only

as good as your last race.

And now you've got to do it all again.

[music playing]

In order to excel at anything, it

requires a tremendous amount of commitment, energy, and focus.

Being in the race car is the most focused I will ever be.

There's nothing else to get in the way.

There's nothing else to think about.

It's completely immersive, taking you out of the moment

and allowing you to focus on one thing.

At the end of the day, it's about your mind.

Driving a racing car on the limit is a form of expression.

It's a form of artistic expression.

Your ability to extract the maximum potential

of the vehicle is, in itself, an extension of your personality.

You are giving a performance in the car.

I think it's not just something that I enjoy doing.

It's something that I need to do.

Without that, a whole piece of you would be missing.

That performance becomes your life.
