Charles did it 🎉
-
Of course & as DC should. Winning Monaco more than once is an exclusive club
-
Without fawning over him too much, I think his mum would be extremely content with who her son has become.
-
I’ve always admired Prince Albert. He seems to be a real gentleman who cares deeply for his state and its people. This made for a great listen!
-
Being Swedish and 50+ and a Formula 1 fan since the 70's, my love of the sport startee with Ronnie Peterson.. I must say, this podcast is the most valued and rewarding to me. Good job guys, keep it interesting and real
-
He‘s monegasque/french & speak better english then most brits & americans. Yes he mother was from philly both this level of english is excellent
-
As a Korean and a fan of f1 and Monaco Grand Prix, I am happy to see the prince on the show!
-
Leclerc's time came!
-
Great interview! And as always Prince Albert comes across as one the the good guys. But I was slightly perturbed by the conversation near the end when the prince spoke about negotiations with Liberty Media. As a long time F1 fan I am frankly worried that Liberty Media - in their myopic chase for numbers and money - very well might start dropping some classic and important European venues like Monaco for the next big shiny US track. I know I'm not alone in that thinking. Cheers!

AND CHARLES DID WIN ❤😭❤️
-
Ahhh WOW!! That's an impressive interview and the Prince was such a congenial, pleasant fellow. Wonderful guest, excellent discussion DC & EJ 👍👍🏁
-
Wow, what special podcast! 🙂 (Any F1 driver who wins Monaco is an F1 World Champion in my book- it's the ultimate driving test.)
-
Irvine,Hakkinen,Barrichello,Brawn and Prost interviews when?

7 Monaco wins incoming for Charles! This beautiful soul deserves all the glory after all the years of pain and heartbreak!
-
I super-love the reference to my home country, and to the legend in Nelson Mandela. You folks are incredible for having posted this content. Thank you!

Brilliantly done interview

I didn't know he's so down to earth😊, great interview thanks cheers ❤

Maybe one of the attractions to so many sportsmen is that it’s tax free? Still my favourite GP. Thanks for a great interview.

Loving the content guys, it’s my new favourite Podcast! Keep them coming👊 I was in the Silverstone Museum last Saturday and got many a photo next to David’s McLaren MP4/15. Beautiful car!
