Could you not have thrown it on the damaged side? How many spare fairings do you think we fucken have?<\/p>\n<p>That aside, what the fuck are you doing shunting Iannone? If you\u2019re going to spear him with Matthias\u2019s bike, then make sure you take him the fuck out so I at least have something to tell Mathias he will understand.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, what the fucking fuckity fuck fuck are you doing in general? Can\u2019t ride out of Q1? Sixteenth on the grid?<\/p>\n<p>George, I have to tell you, your position on the championship ladder after two races is tragic. You are in 18<sup>th<\/sup> place and on the same number of points as Tito Rabat, which is five.<\/p>\n<p>Five, George. Five. Tito Rabat and five points.<\/p>\n<p>If I put anymore telemetry on the bike it will pop like a pus-filled zit. We are at Peak Telemetry, George.<\/p>\n<p>You know what Mathias is going to say? He\u2019s going to say: \u201cWhat have I bought, Gigi? Tell me. What is it I have bought here? Because while I know what I <em>could<\/em> have bought, I want you to tell me what it is I <em>actually<\/em> bought. I could have bought Tito, his parents, his village, the mountains behind it, the sky above them, and every goat for 100 kilometres in every direction for one-tenth of what I have paid for George.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I hope that\u2019s all he says.<\/p>\n<p>We shall talk soon.
