But the other guy who writes for Red Bull, Max Verstapen, he could only manage ninth, and that was in the opening session. And that's where we'll leave it for now. Michael Abramson is waiting in the pit lane with the top spot, and that's from 6-7. Well, listen, you're talking about the pit lane. What about the haka? Why I'm asking that question is many believe, like in soccer terms, you say home support is worth an extra goal, right? So there's been a belief that the haka is worth a try to the all-blacks. Like it's worth five points at least, right?
Do you think that's true, that it has such an impact on teams that it gives them a five-point start? Well, they may have the haka and have a five-point start. We still have Sister Bettina. So that's our answer today. Well, I don't know if it's an answer, but we love the fact that we have our unofficial sort of anthem against the Haka. I'm just thinking, it's certainly one of the most powerful symbols in world sport and amongst the most frightening.
If you're the opposition, but the point is, if they're getting a five-point start, it means they've actually lost a lot of matches, that they've actually won some close games, something to consider. But there we are, the Haka. My son was at the game in Cape Town last week, and like, oh my goodness, man, to see it live, the Haka in all its glory, something else. The next great story, the next unforgettable goal, the next breathtaking destination, the next blockbuster movie. They're closer than you think.
