Ice racing with Kimi and jet skiing with Lewis! | At Home With Sky F1's Natalie Pinkham

Hello F1 family, we are missing, welcome

home

to Sky F1. Now I've been asked to pick my favorite full features from the last eight years of Sky F1. Now there are a lot of features to choose from, probably around fifteen or sixteen. hundred, but I think I've done it, the first in an ice race with a Kimi räikkönen, the second in a 2013 rookie movie on the beach in Melbourne, the third in Monaco, on a jet ski with Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg and the fourth in another. of Monaco because it's my favorite race, it's mine and Ted's guide to a weekend at the Monaco Grand Prix, so race Kimi räikkönen in Russia first, if those six words alone don't entice you to check this out , then I don't know what.

We had a lot of fun filming this feature to give you a little history? It was Friday night we had just done the F1 show at Sky HQ and then we flew all night when we got to Moscow and I landed with the time difference we had to go straight to the ice circuit and start

racing

so I'm not putting excuses for the fact that I fell in turn one but I am but I'm not but I do but I hadn't slept Kimi I decided to blame it on the fact that she was a kind and sassy woman.

Kimi, anyway, apart from that one comment, was in great shape. It was fun. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Wow, Kimi räikkönen is one of the best. Intriguing Formula One characters, what do we really know about him? We know he is fast, we know he is a man of few words, we know he knows what he is doing and now we know he loves driving on ice. I've come all the way. to Moscow to watch him and his boy race in icy water and see if I can reveal a little more about the personality behind the enigmatic Finn, how boring it is to drive like that, they should have made some ugly curves, yes, because otherwise I wouldn't do it you do.

He understands that it's just enlightenment, if you don't think he has enough power, I mean, you probably have to. I want to do it again. I want to take me. Can you give me three tips on how to drive a nice one? We will do anything. What's up? I should be on whatever you want I won't let myself cross the first curve try to point the way to where you want to go just put Rotelli because on the side put the wheels on the way to where you want to go never in Russian if I damage the car you should probably get off it can you're in a little trouble, I'm really not sure if Salaf will cry right now, that was really funny, sorry Renault, okay, now it's time for the possibly banned press conference, to be honest, I'm destroyed. the car plans to ask Kimi what it takes to be a decent ice racer Kimi I'm thinking about a career in ice

racing

Just wondering what kind of skills you think I need to be successful many many make parts Kosma nothing enjoy the economy none game is a relaxed team and there is a different way of doing things many of the personal things we still need the best of us and try to win races kid choose Kimmy the Iceman RIKEN and get off the ice face to face, this is It's going to be fun to go back there so took the Iceman out on the ice that was amazing it was my first time on the ice and it was very very fun and I've made some ice resin before no cirali but it's gospel pretty basic.

I think if people who do CrossFit feel like they are at

here because they have a good connection with the Russians, we both like to drink a lot of vodka, that's for sure, no, no, I really mean it's different. feeling about diversity and, I mean, it's close to this, so it wasn't too difficult for me to get here. It's called that in Finland in the winter, but I mean, I haven't really said, do you have as much fun with Kimmy in the Now, a little background information about the Lotus guy going completely crazy and, in fact, you know he did. you understand.

I've written off his car and I had a world champion in the front seat that I couldn't give whiplash to. To be near the beginning of the season when I told him that kami laughed and by laugh I mean a real belly ache, he thought he was going to see this and many of you did too because it was downloaded hundreds of thousands of times on YouTube. It was so much fun Thanks Kimmy I will never forget our ice racing extravaganza in Russia. Well, my next article and this whole thing is about the rookies in 2013. Remember, can you remember who they were?

There were five. I tell you that Algie brought us gido van der gar Esteban Gutiérrez max Chilton and of course God rest his soul, regular Bianchi. I love this feature because it was the first time they were all going out together, it was a very windy beach in Melbourne and we asked them to play tennis on the beach, which was impossible in the conditions where everyone is quite shy, a bit in the garden, you could tell they are very excited about what awaits them this weekend, with five drivers making their Formula One debut, so we thought what.

Better to get the old competitive juices flowing than a Sky f1 challenge on possibly the windiest day of the year. Anyone for tennis. The inaugural sky, a porn opening began with Guido van der Garde outlasting his younger rival, Valtteri Bottas, and then the Dutchman defeated in a valiant effort. from our mats to confirm their progress to the final and the whole Marisha affair fell into the path of Max Chilton seven four and a second win against Esteban Gutierrez ensured it would be an Anglo-Dutch affair in the final and it was like Interlagos all over again as Caterham and Marisha battled for the leads, changing hands several times, but like Brazil, it was Caterham who ultimately prevailed.

Fanta's guards triumphed 10-7 in the end. Well, I hope your driving is a little better than your tennis, which was actually very difficult. "Yes, it was a lot of fun, how are you feeling during the weekend? I'm very happy to be here. I mean, I'm no longer the youngest at the age of 27, you're the oldest rookie, yes, that's how it is , I still feel very young, well, you showed it on the tennis court. Yes, it is very good. Estevan, you have been involved with the team for some time. Yes. , definitely, after a long time knowing you.

The team has been very progressive, you know, I think it's the best way to prepare me for this moment, so now you know it's a natural step, that's how I'm trying to approach it and you've I had a lot of tests in the tests, so lean on it. It's a good help, you feel well prepared, yes, I have done a lot of kilometers during the winter of six. We had a problem with the teammate, so for me it was a benefit, so I feel very comfortable with the car and I can't wait to go back. starting on Friday, obviously for me it has been a bit special because I knew that I would get the seat not too long ago, so I couldn't prepare the decision well even if we did two good tests and we gave myself the opportunity to know the team, of course, I think my teammate is the only one, at least for me, who you can really compare how you do and I have a really strong team that got together very, very quickly, so I think it will be interesting to see how we do.

In Kedah, we have seen a high turnover of newbies in the sport. Do you feel a great deal of pressure? Is the pressure coming solely from yourself? No, I'm pretty relaxed, actually I mean, I know the team, I just don't know the Just for me it's important to learn the track as soon as possible and have a good weekend and the team is pretty relaxed. We have some work on the car that we have to do for the first four races and then in Barcelona we will meet to get a good update so we will see what it is for all of us, their new circuit will be really interesting and as I said it will change a lot from the free practice, one for a laugh and then again for the race, so there is a lot. accept it, but there is a challenge, but that is not pleasant, well, it has been wonderful playing tennis with you.

I never play tennis. I was very happy to reach the final. I do not believe you. By the way, how we maintain this record is really yes. yes you will next Sunday, good luck guys, enjoy it, make the most of it, have fun. I appreciate you joining us. I really enjoyed doing that Ricci feature and I'm sure that, like me, you enjoyed seeing Jules' face and hearing his voice again and also, like me, did you think of Charlotte Claire? They really remind me of each other and I'm sure you're all looking down on your great friend and godson and feeling very proud of the success he's having.

That Ferrari in the sport that we all love so much it's crazy to think about the five that Valerie alone brought us is still on the grid. Well, it's time for my third favorite event of my time at Sky F1 and it's in Monaco and it involves the guys from Mercedes. and a couple of jet skis now so I'm a Lazenby had to ride on the back of Lewis Hamilton's jet ski against Nico Rosberg with me on the back and as you can imagine this was when they were still better friends, but there was a lot of competitiveness and there was a lot of fun, you could see the spirit of both in this function.

I think I really enjoyed it. This is us, jet

skiing

with the Mercedes drivers. This time we're leaving, so Nick, oh, you're my. driver for the day yes thank you all for being ready to release the handbrake it would help so how long have we been in Monaco for a year one year how is it going I love it. I was literally bored in Switzerland and you You have your teammate as a neighbor, yeah, so sometimes if I don't have food, I just go upstairs and knock on his door. Do you have a lot of influence on your younger Carlton?

But did he dictate how you drove? This and I did that or you Pastor, the last advice he gave me was nickel, when the track is drying you should look for the light gray patches because those are the dry patches and my reaction to that meant he never told me. he gave it Any more advice? I'll tell you the first time he drove through his tunnel. I couldn't believe it, much narrower than I thought. Well, different when seen on television. I know it's almost like a person with challenges in his eyes. How soon can I? Take it flat exactly, this is my way to school which I used to take every morning and I can see the sound during the night and now I drive with 300 with an F1 car with Silver Arrow.

I always found the first trimester to be quite difficult. eyes it's tight sometimes you commit to the corner but you go too deep and it's too late to turn left exactly on the escape yeah and I had a moment there on Oh seven and then on the first day practice and I ended up at the barrier. I did the same thing, a disaster, yes, and you came flying in practically exactly the same. Well, if Lewis's fluids can do it, then they'll let me go. I probably don't think people really appreciate how. hard it is, it's the hardest Grand Prix, it's the hardest track to do it to master some jet

skiing

now you're a jet ski king oh yeah, it looks good in a wetsuit yeah, too bad you're not with she I mean, leave it with him Johnny Herbert is the official timer, I thought this is Anthe Davidson, he is doubling very well, very well, yes, you have a very steady hand, we are fine with the general Mercedes toys that we play with, Feeling like we're both going to break up. up in the drink, think about it, yes, I already have Nico here, he enters the chicane, how are things going so far?

Johnny I've only had one, I don't know, I think at this point the lights were a sporty contour line there. At least it's not about tires, it's very nice, I have no idea what the time is, there's no room to be the official time, can they both work forever? That's that dodgy watch, Marcus gets wet, handle me, we can't lose this one, yes, there was a The prize was one of the most expensive due to one point where Lewis threw the huge camera into the Mediterranean along with the cameraman, it was okay and his phone, which luckily Louis paid for, but yeah, it was a very expensive shoe.

Very funny, okay, my next and last favorite feature film is also Monaco and this has to be probably my favorite of all and that is because it features the biggest race of all, the Monaco Grand Prix, which unfortunately this year has been cancelled. , but we understand there are bigger things at play, but this feature shows Ted and I enjoying the Monaco Grand Prix completely different ends of the spectrum in terms of cost, so luckily I got the big budget and Ted is an absolute fixture in her crusty little sandals. doing everything with very little money and that shows that if you want to go to Monaco, it should be on everyone's bucket list, you can do it no matter how small your budget is, whether you are a prince or a pauper.

Monaco is for you, enjoy Monaco as the playground of the rich and famous, but they don't even know the meaning of the word budget for a single day, neither do I, not everyone has the money to spend on the luxuries that Monaco has to offer, so if you need to do the Monte Carlo Grand Prix on a budget this is how you get something in a coat and you need a place to stayYou will find it very difficult to look past this place the stunning hotel oh my goodness a Monte Carlo this is the Presidential Diamond Suite and you can't even imagine what it costs per night, the view alone is priceless.

The lady is still asleep in the caravan, but there are actually no camping places in Monaco, so we are here at the port camp, which is in France, and for a good deal. In fact, you can park your motorhome here and stay all weekend with your friends from Germany. I have pretzels and what have we here. Sausages and it looks like a family meal. Glorious food. There are many places to eat in Monaco in one day. unlimited budget but the place to really be seen is Alan de casas on busy weekends sláinte I don't want to live collage the cheese is the cheese of the center oh well, it's on special offer okay, well, I have my lunch and my dinner here and still They changed my ten euros and why wouldn't you buy all these delicious fresh products from the south of France in a supermarket, I'm going to enjoy my products.

Monaco has a disadvantage besides logistics: it is so densely populated here that getting from A to B is a total nightmare, but there is also a positive side to the cloud because you can get around in helicopters. there you are hello, it's okay, you don't need to come pick me up at the airport. Got the bus, very convenient and excellent. If you're traveling around Monaco on a budget right now, you can avoid another bus or just walk. Think Monaco. Think superyachts. There are few places. More glorious in the world to see the Monaco Grand Prix than this PC in Varna.

In fact, there is a better place to watch the race and all the action on the track. It's from here, says Laroy or the rock, and they are also the cheapest tickets. You can buy it for the Monaco Grand Prix, but what a view. I have my comfortable camping chair. I have my apple juice and a million pounds. Well, actually I didn't spend enough; In theory, you would spend it if you followed the route. that I brought Ted Halas a little secret. I had actually just said I was pregnant when I did that shoot, which was amazing news, but it meant I couldn't drink any of that gorgeous champagne they were offering me anyway.

I've loved taking you on this little journey through our favorite features, stay tuned with us in the future, let us know which features you've especially enjoyed over the years. Most importantly, stay safe, stay healthy, take care of each other, we miss you, we look forward to having the races. Back on the calendar very soon I'm doing another boot camp with Wolf and Willow Kiss.
