Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,640
The preparation has
been long, intense
2
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,120
and difficult for everyone.
3
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,120
The time comes
when it's just you
4
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,640
and the car, in front
of the starting lights,
5
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,240
it's time to compete, and
that's a unique moment.
6
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,160
You've prepared for many months
7
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,600
with just one goal in sight,
8
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,000
and that moment has arrived.
9
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,120
The people watching the race
10
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,600
keep an eye on the blue car
11
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,400
to see what happens
on the first lap.
12
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,120
EPISODE 1 YOU'D BETTER
HOPE I DON'T WIN
13
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,720
MARCH 2020
14
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,240
Today I informed
the head of state
15
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,400
an extraordinary council of
ministers will be held tomorrow
16
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,880
to declare a state of alarm
17
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,280
across our country,
across Spain.
18
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:01,720
The Spanish Grand Prix will
not be held this weekend.
19
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,560
Officially it's postponed.
20
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,240
But it is more likely
there will be no season.
21
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,920
The Bahrain and Vietnam
GPs are being cancelled too
22
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,480
and the F1 organizers hope
to start at the end of May.
23
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,520
At the earliest, the
world championship
24
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,360
will start in June.
25
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,656
TWO YEARS AFTER RETIRING,
FERNANDO PREPARES
26
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,760
HIS F1 COMEBACK IN THE
MIDST OF THE PANDEMIC
27
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,280
It's been a very unusual year.
28
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,520
Things happened that made you
very worried on some days,
29
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,840
more hopeful on others.
30
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,160
There were optimistic
days and pessimistic ones,
31
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,840
the pandemic, the
difficulties and restrictions,
32
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,960
the bicycle accident.
33
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,760
With all these things
going on, you try to grow.
34
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,000
What doesn't kill you
makes you stronger.
35
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,960
Life outside the car.
36
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,040
He isn't just working
on improving the car,
37
00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:27,655
he wants to be
the best prepared.
38
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,960
The enthusiasm with which
Fernando is preparing his return
39
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:44,920
surprises all of us
40
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:46,960
who have known him for years.
41
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:51,600
He seems totally reinvigorated,
42
00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:54,560
like I haven't
seen him in years.
43
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:57,760
I'm like a motorbike!
44
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,200
When he said, "I'm up for it,"
45
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,480
the look on his face said,
"I'm coming back to win!"
46
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,360
Fer quit Formula One
47
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:09,840
two years ago.
48
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,600
He kicked the habit.
49
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,800
When I take part in
something, I'm always worried
50
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,480
things won't go well.
51
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:31,920
There are two Fernandos.
52
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,040
When his helmet's on,
he's another person.
53
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:36,680
If a two-time world
champion joined my team,
54
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,880
I'd be motivated to beat them,
55
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,440
to be better.
56
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:43,880
Awesome!
57
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,640
Fernando's principal trait
58
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,320
is his blind faith in himself.
59
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,880
The problem Alonso will face is,
60
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,360
everyone expects
the best of him.
61
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,440
My hopes for his comeback?
That he won't get injured.
62
00:06:06,840 --> 00:06:09,760
I think he's coming back to win.
63
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,880
They know who
they're dealing with.
64
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,154
If you give a guy like
him a competitive car,
65
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,840
you never know what he'll do.
66
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,400
With drivers like Fernando,
there are no excuses.
67
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,360
I'm one of the 20
people in the world
68
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,240
who can drive a Formula One car.
69
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,800
I just want to win.
70
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,680
LUGANO SWITZERLAND
71
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,440
After a short post-Dakar break,
72
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,160
I came here, to Switzerland,
73
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,600
and I wanted to hang out at home
74
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,680
after a hectic 2019.
75
00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:51,040
But I ended up staying at home
far longer than I'd imagined!
76
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,240
The months of March,
April, May and June
77
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,160
were a new life for all of us,
78
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,560
just hanging out at home.
79
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,360
With lots of video calls,
80
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,600
with real concern for
family living far away.
81
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:11,520
He was out of his comfort zone,
82
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,160
where everything
is under control
83
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,160
and everything is planned
84
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,640
down to the last detail.
85
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,560
Then the pandemic hit.
86
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,720
He knew there was
nothing that he
87
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,600
or anyone else
could do about it.
88
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:27,960
Fernando
89
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,080
was really anxious about it.
90
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,880
I wouldn't say he's
a hypochondriac
91
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,960
but when it comes to health,
92
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,160
he has always been very mindful.
93
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,560
You suddenly feel like
a six-year-old kid
94
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,280
who is left behind at the
store and totally lost.
95
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,160
You're powerless before the
world, before this new situation,
96
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,480
and you don't know how to react.
97
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,240
You need your parents' advice.
98
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,480
I was lucky enough to
be with my parents.
99
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,920
We formed a bubble.
100
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,000
We spoke every day
101
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,800
and fortunately, none of
us had any health issues.
102
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,080
We respected all the measures.
103
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,680
We stayed shut up at home,
104
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,960
keeping one another company.
105
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,600
The lockdown kind of coincided
106
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,920
with my desire, or my intention,
to return to Formula One.
107
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,000
The calls started,
the sounding out too.
108
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,880
A few teams wanted
to make changes.
109
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,920
In the middle of the lockdown,
110
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,520
you start thinking seriously
111
00:08:36,680 --> 00:08:38,160
about returning to Formula One.
112
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,120
My return has to come
113
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,160
with that,
114
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,640
with some great guarantees
115
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,400
and on the right foot.
116
00:08:51,560 --> 00:08:52,920
And I think...
117
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,080
I feel we're on the right track.
118
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,560
I told my people and my parents
119
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,320
about the talks I was
having with the teams
120
00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:09,240
to see if they had a preference,
especially my family.
121
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,080
The person he consulted
most was my father.
122
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,120
He has confidence in his advice
123
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,360
and I guess Dad's the
person he trusts most.
124
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,120
With Alonso, the
rumours change daily.
125
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,440
It's "yes" one day, "no" the
next, Aston Martin then Renault.
126
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,040
Fernando is discussing
127
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,040
- his options...
- He's listening not discussing.
128
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,760
MARCIN BUDKOWSKI ALPINE
F1 EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
129
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,800
Alonso's 2021 F1 comeback:
Renault interested?
130
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,800
Fernando Alonso is
joining Team Renault.
131
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,360
The news will
likely be announced
132
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:40,640
sometime next week.
133
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,040
The deal was wrapped up
in the past few days.
134
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,480
Fernando Alonso
is returning to F1
135
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,360
20 years after he started in F1.
136
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,240
Fernando Alonso makes
a one with his finger!
137
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,080
He crosses the chequered flag!
138
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,400
Brakes, crosses, waves!
139
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,000
Fernando Alonso wins
140
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,560
the Hungary Grand Prix!
141
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,200
When he was with Minardi,
people said that Jean Todt
142
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,920
wanted him for Ferrari
and that he'd join them.
143
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,640
In the end, Briatore
took him to Renault.
144
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,000
I remember thinking:
145
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,280
"Fuck, not Renault." But
he got two world titles.
146
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,480
And it's the same
thing this time.
147
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,400
It's important for him to
feel competitive again.
148
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,520
This situation with
Renault will give him that.
149
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:45,040
CHRIS MEDLAND JOURNALIST
150
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,280
There was a possibility
of other teams...
151
00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:59,920
But in the end he chose Renault
152
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,520
because it felt
like coming home.
153
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,680
It's important for him now.
154
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,520
It really is about
the motivation
155
00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:08,880
of coming back to F1.
156
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,200
It obviously isn't
the same thing
157
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,880
accepting these
challenges when you're 20
158
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,160
and accepting them
when you're 39.
159
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,040
Returning to Formula One
definitely has its risks.
160
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,440
But my last few
years in Formula One
161
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,120
were mid-grid or further back.
162
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,520
So I can easily improve on that.
163
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,800
Everyone at Renault
164
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:35,800
is really excited and happy.
165
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,080
So the engineers
have no excuses.
166
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,280
Not with drivers like Fernando.
167
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,080
He's back because he
wants to be happy.
168
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,920
He knows he's happiest
when he's driving
169
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:57,760
the world's fastest cars.
170
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,920
And the fastest
cars are F1 cars.
171
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,280
But now Fernando has...
172
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,200
He has switched.
He's a virgin again.
173
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,120
He's like he was 20 years ago
174
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,080
when it comes to excitement,
175
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,840
energy, motivation, and
physical preparation.
176
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,560
I mean, he even looks
physically younger.
177
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,000
He'll definitely give
Renault all the means
178
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,240
for Renault to win again.
179
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,440
In the end, with Renault,
there was this special feeling.
180
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,240
Coming back home appealed to me.
181
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:38,600
I wanted
182
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,680
to have another shot at it.
183
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,440
Now was the right time to do it.
184
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,920
AUGUST 2020
185
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,480
FERNANDO IS GEARING UP
FOR HIS NEXT CHALLENGE
186
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,320
THE INDIANAPOLIS 500
187
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,960
Even though you've signed
and your mind is already set
188
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,280
on the 2021 Formula One season,
189
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,880
a part of you knows,
your competitive side,
190
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,760
there's a very important
race before the 2021 season,
191
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:23,400
and that's the Indy 500.
192
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,000
The dream of clinching
the Triple Crown
193
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:28,920
in the modern racing era,
194
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,200
by winning the F1,
Le Mans and the Indy,
195
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,680
is still an appealing idea
196
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,480
and something I'm aiming for.
197
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:43,080
Indianapolis was the
first post-lockdown race
198
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,280
we had to organize.
199
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,280
We did everything remotely.
200
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,160
Fernando Alonso is bound
for the United States
201
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:51,520
to compete
202
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,120
in the Indianapolis 500
203
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,840
after McLaren managed to resolve
204
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,520
a U.S. visa hurdle.
205
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,120
The race will be
run on August 23
206
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,160
without fans in the stands.
207
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,920
The Indy is the most important
race in the world of motorsport.
208
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:14,640
The track is huge.
209
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,760
It's an oval whose size
you can't possibly imagine
210
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:19,760
until you actually see it.
211
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,160
There's a golf
course in the middle.
212
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,880
You could fit 4 or 5.
213
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:26,640
Formula One tracks in the oval.
214
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,280
It's the oldest race in
the world of motorsport
215
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,280
and if you win the Indy 500
you make racing history.
216
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:48,240
DOUG BOLES IMS PRESIDENT
217
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,520
Fernando is back with McLaren
but not its Formula One team,
218
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,480
its Indycar team.
219
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,920
He is competing in
the next Indy 500.
220
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:03,840
The #66 car
221
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,080
is an Arrow McLaren SP
powered by a Chevrolet engine.
222
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,520
The team will be guided
by engineer Craig Hampson.
223
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,560
From day one, we kept
a very open mind.
224
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,440
We didn't rule out any
adjustments to the car
225
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,280
or experimenting things.
226
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,800
We were striving to be
227
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:54,920
as well prepared as possible
228
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,880
while knowing there
was no bump day.
229
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,160
That was the most
important element.
230
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,440
As only 33 cars were entered,
231
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,720
the whole week was more relaxed
232
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,440
and the pressure was off
233
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,600
the teams, drivers
and engineers.
234
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,640
The big difference this year
was that I had teammates.
235
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,200
Pato O'Ward and Oliver
Askew were my teammates.
236
00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:31,880
These two young drivers
237
00:17:32,120 --> 00:17:36,000
were doing the whole IndyCar Series
not just the Indianapolis 500.
238
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,440
They had the experience
239
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,280
that we had lacked
the previous year.
240
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,280
And I think the meetings,
the sharing of data,
241
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,760
everything we tried in the week
242
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,280
before the time
trials and the race,
243
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,920
really helped us grow as a team.
244
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,560
And we gave each other a hand.
245
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,880
The fact we had
a 3-car structure
246
00:17:59,120 --> 00:18:02,360
meant everyone better understood
the mechanics of the car.
247
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:04,920
Are you medium or large?
248
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,640
- I'm medium.
- They're customised now.
249
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,840
Usually it's medium. And you?
250
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,520
- Customised obviously.
- I'm medium too.
251
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,480
57 or so.
252
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,160
I used to like it really tight
253
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,240
because here, on the oval,
it moved about a lot.
254
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:24,720
Single seater always.
255
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,120
I had an experience here once
256
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:28,720
when it was really loose
257
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,880
and the helmet rose up
258
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,840
so I tightened it fully,
and I got used to it.
259
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:38,200
But now I have it really tight.
260
00:18:38,360 --> 00:18:41,440
Because my eyes, when
it moves about a lot,
261
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,400
I can't see a damn thing!
262
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:53,000
MARIO ANDRETTI INDY 500
AND FORMULA 1 WINNER
263
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,240
Media Day had to be maintained.
264
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,440
It's called Media
Day for a reason.
265
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,880
And I had to deal with
everyone remotely.
266
00:20:02,120 --> 00:20:05,480
QUALIFYING DAY
267
00:20:09,360 --> 00:20:13,120
FERNANDO HAS 4 LAPS
TO SET HIS BEST TIME
268
00:20:13,360 --> 00:20:15,560
The 4 laps at Indianapolis
269
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,120
are the 4 most stressful laps
270
00:20:18,360 --> 00:20:20,280
in your life as a racing driver.
271
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,200
I said to Alberto and
to my people in Spain,
272
00:21:07,360 --> 00:21:11,200
"There's no bump day this year,
so we'll do the 4 laps flat out.
273
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,680
"Hopefully there'll be
no mishaps or scares.
274
00:21:14,120 --> 00:21:16,000
"The time we set is
the time we deserve.
275
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,400
"If the run goes well
276
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,720
"and there are no major mishaps,
277
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,800
"we'll stick with that
time." And we did.
278
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,040
- The car isn't bad, is it?
- No, on Wednesday, Thursday...
279
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,760
I think a race pace,
a downforce race...
280
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,240
I also think the Chevy
is an engine that's...
281
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:20,960
- Better?
- That's right.
282
00:22:21,120 --> 00:22:24,160
When they added the boost,
Chevy lost a little something.
283
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,520
- I agree.
- So I think for the race...
284
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,760
Because the team's 3 cars
were in the top 15 every time.
285
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,600
And yesterday we were
in the last 20 to 30...
286
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,560
That's the deal. We'll
start from the back.
287
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,720
In any case, if you
get pole position,
288
00:22:42,360 --> 00:22:45,560
or if you're in the top 3,
you'll start in the first row.
289
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,240
If you start from 11th or 17th,
you have to hope for a miracle.
290
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:50,960
Whatever.
291
00:22:55,120 --> 00:22:56,920
It's an unpredictable track.
292
00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:01,840
There are usually 10,
12, 14 different leaders.
293
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,880
The good news is, Manu,
294
00:23:07,120 --> 00:23:09,600
that McLaren's team this year
295
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,160
has some awesome engineers
296
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,880
and they can really
help Fernando.
297
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,000
Alonso's tactician is
excellent: Craig Hampson.
298
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:21,800
He's one of the
best in his league
299
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,560
and he already knows what it
is to win in Indianapolis.
300
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:36,360
CRAIG HAMPSON ARROW
MCLAREN SP RACE ENGINEER
301
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,080
I know he has the skills
302
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,120
and the experience to put a
competitive car on the track
303
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:06,280
and I don't yet.
304
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,120
In IndyCar, I'm still a rookie.
305
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,520
SCOTT GOODYEAR
FERNANDO'S SPOTTER
306
00:27:27,360 --> 00:27:31,360
3 DAYS UNTIL THE RACE
307
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,160
We have 3 days off
308
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,560
which we'll spend relaxing,
309
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,280
doing some sport,
clearing our minds.
310
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,120
1901.
311
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:52,320
Is that right?
312
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,600
Because the 500 miles
313
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,240
in 1905
314
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,880
lasted 5 and a half or 6 hours.
315
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,840
And there were always 2...
316
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,080
The motorhome
317
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,000
was a test of friendship too!
318
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,840
We spent ages in it together
but we're used to it now.
319
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,600
It was just another test.
320
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,920
One looked forwards,
one looked backwards.
321
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,200
The rear-view mirror
was invented here.
322
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,400
But 500 miles looking backwards!
323
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,080
- I'd feel sick.
- Just imagine!
324
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,000
For the driver,
325
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,120
for personal time,
326
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,720
for race preparation time,
327
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,120
it wasn't bad.
328
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,720
You have much more time
than you did before.
329
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,080
But another week of it and
we'd have gone stir-crazy.
330
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,600
We couldn't go out, we were
stuck in our motorhomes.
331
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:48,720
I recorded you.
332
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,680
RACE DAY
333
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,440
Obviously I turned up
334
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:00,400
with memories of last year
335
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,480
when we had a hard time.
336
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,440
We had problems.
337
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,160
Maybe we weren't as prepared
338
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,720
as we should have been.
339
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,800
MAY 2019
340
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,640
Having 300,000 spectators
341
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,440
in the stands of
a track this size,
342
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,280
and with US-style
enthusiasm too,
343
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:46,600
where the show is
much more important
344
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,320
than the race itself
maybe, I'll miss that.
345
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:54,840
It seems more like a test
346
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,160
than a real race
347
00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,120
where you have to
be competitive.
348
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,440
Until you have a
crash, you go fast,
349
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,640
you get close to the walls,
350
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,160
more in the time trials,
less in practice...
351
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:32,560
You do what you want.
352
00:34:32,720 --> 00:34:37,320
But when you really hit
the wall or lose control,
353
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:39,120
before you come to a halt,
354
00:34:39,240 --> 00:34:42,560
metres and metres and
metres and seconds go by...
355
00:34:42,720 --> 00:34:44,040
You roll over and over.
356
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,320
Even with the brake on
and the wheels blocked,
357
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,960
you need tons of metres.
358
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,760
You see your mates crash
359
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,640
and you see how the car is,
360
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:01,280
and how it affects them,
361
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,840
not only physically
but mentally.
362
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,440
Sometimes it's physical,
363
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,760
other times it makes
you feel less confident
364
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,640
about going into
corners at full speed
365
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,000
and not slowing down.
366
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:30,640
Every lap I did,
367
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,720
I was just thinking:
"If I spin around here,"
368
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,120
"if I lose control here..."
369
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,400
It isn't that I was scared,
I was just calculating
370
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,800
where I would hit the wall.
371
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:00,840
It was a total nightmare.
372
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:40,360
I tried to put it into 1st.
373
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:43,120
The car was in neutral,
1st, neutral...
374
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,440
It was the clutch.
They started to push me
375
00:38:08,240 --> 00:38:12,000
in 1st gear, like with a road
car when you push it downhill.
376
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,480
They said, "If the steering
wheel levers are broken",
377
00:38:20,720 --> 00:38:21,760
"we'll change it."
378
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,040
So I swapped the steering
wheel for a new one.
379
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,480
It still wouldn't go into 1st.
380
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,880
The race was so tough, driving
the car was so difficult
381
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:47,800
and it felt so bad...
382
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,840
I was looking at the engineers
and kind of hoping to hear,
383
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:52,880
"Switch off the car,
we're retiring."
384
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,160
But at the same time,
385
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:16,040
you want to finish, see
the flag, cross the bricks
386
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,480
and finish an Indy 500 at
least once in your life.
387
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,080
That's what we tried
to do from that point.
388
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:43,360
We kept our cool and encouraged
each other over the radio.
389
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,440
And we climbed positions
due to accidents,
390
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,680
thanks to our tactics,
thanks to the track.
391
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,160
We were gaining ground.
392
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,800
AFTER THE CRASH, THE RACE
ENDED UNDER A YELLOW FLAG
393
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:38,240
FERNANDO FINISHED 21ST
394
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:54,600
We all felt that we
had done what we could
395
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,400
but we'd have liked to
have done a bit more.
396
00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,920
I wished I could have
given more to the team,
397
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:03,160
they wished they had given
me a more comfortable car.
398
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,600
OLIVER ASKEW FERNANDO'S TEAMMATE
399
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,600
We're going to
leave it in neutral.
400
00:45:07,720 --> 00:45:09,800
We're owed another shot at it.
401
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:24,880
IN THE NEXT EPISODE
402
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,240
It's as if we've landed on Mars.
403
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,960
You learn to spend a
lot of time by yourself
404
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,320
and this solitude
can often be hard.
405
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,960
I just want to go
home for Christmas.
406
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:41,267
Fernando wants to make
a serious comeback
407
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,440
and he will. That
means training hard.
408
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:53,960
No pain?
409
00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:55,320
I'm like a motorbike!
