I know, you followed me a long time ago. I didn’t follow you back… Yeah, that’s true. I wasn’t gonna bring that up. I was just playing hard to get. Maybe you’ll follow me back? Actually don’t follow me. Actually I do follow you now. You do? Yeah. Oh, I didn’t even notice. Sorry. Cool.

I’m just playing hard to get. I actually think we shouldn’t follow each other. Keep it a secret? Yeah. I’m down. Do you like chicken nuggets and chips? I love chicken. Oh my God, same. Really? Chicken makes you more beautiful. Does it? Yeah, it’s a fact. How d’you know I like Capri-Sun? Cause I’ve…

Done your research. been researching you. I didn’t even… know I was doing this until yesterday. What? Did you not? I just looked at my calendar yesterday. I’ve known about this for… For months, yeah. years- I’ve been manifesting it. So manifesting works? It’s been in my diary for about five years.

You just didn’t know about it. Are you into, like, racing and motorsport? I’m really into racing. How does it work then? Well, you get in the car, Uh huh. you press on? Uh… Go? Mmm no. So is it just an on button? I don’t even turn it on. What, d’you mean?

Someone else turns it on. It’s magic? You don’t even do the turning it on? No, I just sit in it. Wow, so how do you turn it off? Someone else has to- There is actually an off button. Cool. Do you think that there’s a flaw in it

That maybe you should have your own start button? Hmm. Did they just forget to put it in? I can start it if I want… but, I don’t. You know, I’ve never been to a race. You should come. I would love to, I’m just waiting for the invite. Where d’you wanna go?

Ah, but it’s too loud. It used to be a lot louder. Yeah, V10’s were loud, see I know. So the V10’s were really loud- Yeah. and then they were like, “Whoa, whoa, whoa, too loud.” Whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah. What do you, how do you feel about that? Um, not very happy.

Yes, I heard, everyone loves the V10! They do. I hear it’s quite hot in there. Uh, yeah it’s very hot. Yeah. Yeah, sweaty and- Even hotter if I was in there. Yeah? Agreed! Can you drive? Um… That’s a no. No, we’ll just, shall we just, um, we, we’ll just move on. Um…

I could drive. Could? Do you have a licence? I have… a provisional. Oh, good. If you’re in the market for a passenger princess. You’re the one? I could be that. Look no further. Mmm. Are you a romantic person? When I, when I need to be. I think one of the most

Romantic things you can do is text someone and say, “I’ll come pick you up.” Yeah… Which is what you could do. I could do that. Yeah. ‘Cause I wouldn’t want you saying, you’ll come pick me up. No, ‘cause that would be a disaster and illegal. Yeah, I can text you that.

Sorry, I’m just imagining that happening and it’s great. What’s like your ultimate goal? Apart from, like, this? To fall in love. That’s cute. Yeah. Aww. Isn’t that everyone’s? You’re struggling. Thanks. What are you thinking about when you’re racing? Thinking about this. Me? Oh, oh. No, chicken. What’s the fastest you’ve ever driven? 100?

Uh huh. 200? 250? Not that much. Like 230. Oh, that’s disappointing. I thought you’d go faster than that. I’m working on it. So you’re, you were born in Bristol? Yeah. What was it like growing up in Bristol? I don’t remember it, it was too long ago. Okay, next question. What’s your type?

I’m open. Funny? Yeah, you know, they’re gotta be a good laugh, right? Okay. Gotta look after me. Look after you, in what way? Um… I don’t wanna do too much. No. I’m busy. Are you big spoon, or little spoon? I’m big. Oh okay. Yeah. Great. Sometimes small. Sometimes small. Nah, never.

I’ve never tried, actually. Never tried? You’ve never tried being little spoon? What? Are you serious? Nah. Okay. We can try. Do you snore? Yes. Oh God! That’s really, that’s just a no for me. Maybe I could sleep in a different room. Exactly. The reason I can’t drive

Is because I’ve tried to pass my theory… You can’t do your theory? I’ve tried, and I’ve failed five times! To be honest, I failed my theory. I thought maybe you could help me. Basically, I thought we could revise together for my theory, this is The Highway Code. You can test me, I guess.

How many mirrors are in a car? Three. Really? One, two, three. F*ck, okay sorry, I’m… What do you struggle with the most? Every- everything. Overtaking, that’s always a good one. Don’t do it. What do you do when you see a lollipop lady? You’d normally Scream! just slow down and stop. Okay. “Scream.”

How far away do you live? I live in Monaco. I don’t know if I could do long distance. Yeah. Is it nice there? It’s lovely. They do the racing there, don’t they? Yeah. That’s quite good for you, it’s quite convenient, you can just walk outside- I know I literally wake up, like,

A minute before I’m gonna drive. Really? Don’t think you should be doing that, maybe that’s why you’re… not winning. What? You may not have come first in anything yet but you are the first F1 driver to go on a date Aww. with me. That’s cute. So, there you go. Bring out the champagne!

Joking we don’t have any. No thanks. Sorry. Sorry… What is racecar backwards? Have you waited this whole time to ask me that? It’s racecar. Racecar. Yes, isn’t that crazy? Crazy. Isn’t that crazy? It is actually pretty cool. It is pretty, kind of crazy. Yeah. Does everyone talk about that?

I’ll bring it up next time… You should!
