Speaker 1 (00:15):
Life is though it's nothing but one big lull and presto.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
You do a skull and find that you're really she
size and you're feeling like the toy on a string
and your heart goes ring it ing ding ring it ing,
ding ring it ing.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
We had to jet ourselves to Crapsville for some ring
a ding ding. It's Michael Patrick Shields and a fire
keeper's casino.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Friday.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
We're at the Las Vegas Grand Prix Formula one racing
Tony Cuthbert and Michael Patrick Shields and we've got a
real life racer on our at and T line right now.
The president and CEO of Gentillozi real Estate, but an
accomplished winner on the track for decades and now he's
redefining the Lancing skyline with new vision Lancing, elevating the
(01:07):
city's future. And it's a blend of modern design and
state of the art amenites and a prime location. And
you can learn more about it at Gentilosi dot com,
Mixed use spaces in the Michigan Capital and mister Gentilosi,
it's the wee small hours of the morning. The sky
has not even turned Vegas blue yet. As Frank Sinatra
called it when he would stay up all night. But
(01:28):
last night that strip was busy and those cars were
zooming through the neon and under the lights in a
practice session. And qualifying is today and of course the
race on Saturday. So thank you for partnering with us
to bring this coverage which has been going on all
morning and all week for a couple of weeks.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Now, well, thank you for allowing me to be here
this morning.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Where do we find you in the world, if we
may ask.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
I'm actually got back into Lancing last night. I was
in New York yesterday afternoon and got back dancing last night.
Here today, and then back to Gaillard later tonight where
we have our cottage and some projects there, and then
(02:14):
back to Lancing on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
He's moving it around quite a bit. And is this
the kind of thing would you watch racing on television?
Will you stay up Saturday night and turn this race on?
And if so, what's it like to watch a race
on TV and when you've been on the track and
you've been behind the wheel and you know what's really
going on.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Well, in Formula One, in particular, we watch everybody in
our family watches every practice session, And you know, I
watched Free practice two last night. Coming up this evening,
we'll be free practice three and then qualifying. And there's
so much drama in Formula one. So it really is
(02:55):
the world's biggest soap opera when you look at all
of the personal interactions, all of the stories that get
made up, and all of the what's called today clickbait
that happens in Formula one every day, trying to draw
people to websites that only have part of the truth.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Now, mister GENTILOZI when I talk about Formula One with people,
obviously I'm just a casual fan. I watch these races.
I don't really know what's going on in the car,
what's going on in the paddock with the different racers,
this that.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
The other thing.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
The refrain that I hear from people is, yeah, it's
the glitz and glambur that's cool, But watching these races
is kind of boring. What would you say to that.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Oh, I don't think it's ever boring. I mean sometimes
sometimes the race can be boring. If the driver in
the lead gets a big lead and pulls away from
the rest of the field. That doesn't happen very often,
and especially now in motorsports, they legislate competent tiians through
(04:01):
adjustments in performance, so and late in the season like this,
the teams have stopped spending money on twenty twenty five
development and the cars have equalized to a great extent.
And they're now just a few weeks away from introducing
the twenty twenty six cars, which are all new, a
completely new technology. Nothing from today will fit the twenty
(04:26):
twenty six Formula One cars. It'll be coming out soon.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
I'll tell you what wasn't boring.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
We were on sort of the driver red carpet yesterday
in the paddic area with the media and incomes Charles Leclerk,
who's driving for Ferrari, and with him when you're laughing,
because with him comes his fiance of a couple of weeks,
I guess. And this woman was clad like Ferrari outfitted
(04:52):
leather clothing for her with the prancing horse on the
back of her dark jacket and the sunglasses.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
And he walked.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Her over to the the place where the Ferrari you know,
their office, I guess, you would say. And then he
turned right and went into the garage and went on
to work. That was quite a sight, Paul, was that
what it was like for you? Just chicks all over
the place.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
No, No, I've been married fifty four years, so being
on TV with a hot chick isn't a way to
get married the next day. But Looker's girlfriend. This is
a great example of average guys getting spectacular looking women
because of what they do for a job. And in
(05:38):
this case, her father was a Formula one champion, so
she's been in around the sport her whole life.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Tony's done some research. What's her name?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Her name is Alexandra Saint mlu I'm butchering that a
French Mexican Italian art and fashion influencer.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
The gram. I think, I well, she's influenced me. I'll
tell you that.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
And then we also saw a fellow yesterday who reminded
me of Bob Bafford and horse racing. And he is
one of the owners, I guess, and he dated Heidi
Klum Flavio.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Talking about Lawrence Stroll, he's another he's.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
A yeah, Lawrence is a good friend, longtime friend. Uh.
And and I've been around the Stroll family for a
couple of decades. And and well I taught Lance Stroll,
who drives the aston Martin. I taught him how to
play golf when he was five.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
You know, we're going to go find these people and
tell him we know you tonight.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Oh, absolutely, absolutely, Lawrence. Lawrence is a great guy.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
You were watching the practice just thirty seconds left. What
was the issue where they had to stop for a while.
Was it a loose manhole cup?
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Again it was Yeah, it was a manhole cover and
they're really concerned about that. Last year in practice one
of the ferraris ran over. I mean it was signed.
His car ran over a manhole cover and destroyed. Did
a million dollars worth of damage to the bottom of
the car.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Right on the strip.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
You can drive on it during the day like I
did in my Chevy, and they race on it at night.
