News Clippings with Masport (14/9/26)

0:00OK. Born row struggling to make the cut, spring into a brand new, mass port model. Yeah, and Liam Lawson, of course, finished sixth in Madrid, the latest Grand Prix. It is his tenth top ten finish of the season, means he's ninth in the drivers' championship. And actually a bit disappointed, thought they could have done better in Q3 and got the car into the top five. Yeah, it did pretty well, especially with Lewis Hamilton having a retire with brake issues, but got past a few cars and managed to hold them off as well. This is what Lewis, Liam Lawson had to say after the race. From where we started, quite an OK race, just super hard to overtake. So, when for an old standard, you were starting on the hards, but I think the VSC didn't really help at the start. And then, yeah, from there we were just, honestly, I was away on a little bit. Yeah, would have been nicer quite a bit higher yesterday. I think that was a little bit frustrating on my behalf, but from where we started, it's a good race.

1:04Another weekend in the Red Bull, of course. You feel like you've learnt a lot from these last few weekends, things that you can take forward. Definitely, I mean, if I'm much more comfortable in the car, especially yesterday afternoon, I would say, made quite a big step. So, yeah, overall I feel good. Some things that are closer to my car, they feel a bit nicer now to drive as well. Yeah, that is Liam Lawson speaking after that, of course, as I mentioned, he finished sixth in the Red Bull. The rest of the placings were like this, Kimmy Anting-Yally winning his eighth race of the season. He finished first, Max Vistappen was just behind him, Lanna Norris and third, Charles LeClerc in the first of the Ferraris and fourth, George Russell. The second of the Mercedes in the fifth place with then Liam Lawson. Franco Colapinto, Oscar Piestri, the McLaren in eighth, Avid Limblad to the Racing Bull's teammate, Ovalium Lawson's generally, in ninth in Niko Holkumburg, in tenth also in the points. Madering, this was the first race in the new circuit in Madrid and by the sound of it, not quite as bad as Monaco, but really hard to pass on.

2:12Yeah, that's what's coming out of this, it's been quite difficult to pass on, but it was a fast track. If you've got speed in your car, it was about starting to get being fast and then staying fast, staying ahead of everybody else. Those are your news clubings with Matt Sport, just updating on a couple of things. We've got a full round of NFL on it, the moment the Eagles in the commanders, there's one point in that in the last ten minutes of the fourth quarter, the Eagles leading 17-16. The Cardinals are 23-14 up over the L.A. Chargers in the fourth quarter. The Packers lead the Vikings 22-17 and the Raiders, 27-13 up against the Dolphins. Earlier we saw the Bengals beat the Bucks 33-27. The Lions win and overtiming as the Saints 31-30. The Jets would you believe it? One again. They beat the Titans 23-10. Ravens 41-23 over the Colts.

3:16As less, the Bears 59, the Panther's 37-96 points. We'll talk to Sam Bryff about that tomorrow. Yeah, we'll get him on and get a full wrap-up. We're also going to do a heartland wrap-up tomorrow. We've got a really full show already taking shape for tomorrow morning and we've got a special guest on Wednesday. I should add Brian McKecney. Now, you're roomed last week on the show on Wednesday, the top five of everything. We did people double international or people who represented New Zealand at multiple sports. Brian McKecney was on that list. Brian McKecney was down south of the weekend. They had a bit of a reunion in one of the Southland teams that he was involved in. Brian's going to join us on the show Wednesday morning between 9 and 10. That's something to look forward to. Also to look forward to in just a moment, our full wrap Monday wrap of the NRL.
