In 2008, Jeremy Clarkson asked what Button would give for “that first win.” Button answered, without hesitation, “Everything.” Clarkson followed up, “The millions, the home in Mallorca, the super model girlfriend?” Button answered again, “Yes, all of it; that’s why I’m here. I want to win.” Clarkson interviewed him again after 2009, and brought up that previous answer and asked him if it had been worth it. Button responded, without hesitation, “Absolutely, couldn’t be happier.” Clarkson then pointed out that he had taken a seventy percent pay cut, and that Richard Branson had try to steal his girlfriend, so it had almost cost him everything. Button responded with, “Yeah, but I’m the F1 world champion. Branson can’t say that.” I always thought that serendipity was so awesome to see.
He says in a different podcast that he's not at all into gambling - which makes you wonder why he'd say that... Without high paying sponsorships Donut doesn't run, and so when those sponsors are gambling apps they say sketchy gambling shit. I'd rather have cigarette sponsors lmaoo
Please do an episode on the IKA Torino from Argentina. A LOT of history there. Fangio was involved in the making of it. Pininfarina design. And an 84hr Nürburgring race it sorta won on it's first ever abroad race. PLEASE!!
Vijay Malia has defaulted loans from 17 Indian Banks (National+Pvt Banks) and has to pay US$1.3 billion to them in India. His airlines is catching dust for year's together. Watch Billionaire Bad Boys : India on Netflix's for more info.
Hey Nolan, I really really really love the podcast but I just don't know how to say this, you missed out on a lot of history of the team. Brawn Gp wasn't just the double diffuser. It was a lot lot more. Honda had made a lot of developments which Brawn worked on. The team was Tyrell one of the biggest f1 teams. It was BAR after that and it was Honda which had one of the best seasons in 2006 in which Jenson finished 3rd or 4th if I remember right. Please please don't leave out the history of these teams because it's the history of this team that makes the story even better. I don't mean to be mean but it's just what I feel
One story with this is that when one of the directors of honda told both brawn and fry that they are leaving the sport, he was in tears brining the news but said that if they couldn't find a buyer, they gave an option to buy the team and honda will give them the budget that was already allocated for them....
You know, I don’t really care about F1 at all and even this episode isn’t that interesting to me but y’all manage to make any subject enjoyable on this podcast so I thank you and want to tell you guys to keep up the great work!
I was super bummed when Honda pulled out of F1 in 08, only to learn that they were basically rebranded as Brawn GP and had 2 of my favorite drivers in Jensen and Reubens. Man, the 2009 a F1 season was like a fairytale for me!
Jenson Button was seen as a bright star for UK racing and had not fulfilled his potential, and just before this happened Hamilton appeared and started killing it, so the English public had kind of, written Button off. So he was probably feeling a touch forgotten and looked over, It was a mad surprise to the general public when he won the Title, in a way its as much as a Button story as a Brawn story, which makes it even more crazy
I was at 2009 Aus GP. I was hoping that they would get good result and survive. I guess that nobody can imagine how they end up with 2 championship with just 1 year it exist.
I love this story, generally love all things related to F1 and carting. Switching gears, how about a story of Ford's coverup of their transmission problems?
My favorite piece of trivia about the Mclaren road engine is that it is actually a design by Nissan for the R390 race engine. Mclaren bought the IP from Nissan.
There might be closed captions in the settings. They might not be in Portuguese but you seem pretty good with written English so it might be easier than just listening. If you have trouble reading English quickly you can also slow the video, I hope this helps :)
Muppet Explained: James is kind of right you might call a friend a muppet if he or she did something stupid, like saying "wheres my glases" when they are in your hand...that's a muppet move, like you cant take them seriously but usually harmless. A Puppet would would probably be more venomous, you would only use muppet in a serious disagreement if you were really looking to belittle someone. The closest US versions I guess would be like "Doofuss", but even "Doofuss" feels less humiliating, but maybe has the same, between friends kind of use. There is an extra layer of disrespect in that it implies the "Muppet" thinks they are slick but they actually come across as an idiot to everyone else, or maybe that they are playing a role that everyone else is aware of but they are not. You might call you Uncle/cousin a Muppet but you probably would not call your Boss a Muppet unless you were really good friends or really hated them. There is also an implied affection in its use which is hard to explain,the context defines it more.(note: certain places in UK calling a stranger a muppet would end badly) So in context of Ross Brawn, being who he was in F1, from a non driver POV, there are few more well known names in F1 even then. To say "if he finds out you are muppets" shows 1) no knowledge of F1, 2) no Knowledge of the highly educated and universally respected and sought after, men before them, 3) Obvious lack of effort to research what they were entering into, and I suspect therefore showing a lack of foresight and planning in the eyes of Brawn and Co, and possibly 4) Lack of manners and boundaries on the part of the individual from Virgin who felt it wise to belittle (unknowingly) one of the finest minds in F1 history in their first meeting.
It's against youtube TOS to advertise gambling but I guess when you're a large channel you don't need to follow the rules that would get a small channel deleted
In an era when 0.3 seconds would cover the first 10-14 cars in qualifying that diffuser was pretty much definitive. Well that and Hamilton's luck in the pits
BrawnGP the only team with 100% success rate
They should have been sponsored by manscaped.
Give me the buying certificate
This is my go to channel to bing listen too. Thank you all for your hard work and fun times.

Today I learned Joe might have a gambling problem
Yeah really don't like thing gambling ads tbh it's a kinda sitting un easy with me since they are impressionable to a younger audience also
It's only a problem if you cant afford it. And learn about opportunity cost.

Love the f1 stories. Get to learn so many new things
Check out aidan millward has a great story time series thats mostly f1 based
Yeah it's incredible, I didn't know that's how merc came into dominance. I'm kind of a new f1 fan
only problem is they cant pronounce anything right, and miss out a lot of things when it comes to f1
Yeah no, their riddled with in accuracies and as much as I love the hosts, they should learn how to pronounce shit properly before they record
I look forward to this every Sunday! I just love this show!
This was by far the best season of recent years a Jensen really did deserve it, a true ledge
Sorry to be that guy but: *Jenson
A Honda chassis, a Merc engine, with a little bit of clever thinking from a Brit = Winning solutions.
Please can you do a past gas on Lancia vs Audi in WRC
You mean Lancia vs Peugeot, and Audi very far behind?
@@R4M_Tommy no, he is talking about the Lancia 037 which was the last RWD car to win WRC and went toe to toe with the quattro that year.
Yes! Group b rallye deserves a donut day of recognition 🍩
Peugeot t16 is the best group B car with most victories and still recieves very small amount of recognition.
Peugeot 205 T16 came and win it all. Thats the end of Lancia vs Audi story :)
Day 50 of asking for a Dirty Dirk's Blinker Drink T-shirt from the Wheelhouse: Car Terms Every Car Nerd Needs to know
Fun fact,Button now has a GT3 racing team which car livery shares the same colour scheme as the Brawn GP car in honour of that F1 season
I owe my newfound love of F1 to Nolan. Thank you Nolan!! I even just listened to your Tommo F1 podcast.
I owe it to your momma. She sat on it and went vroom vroom.
I've gone through trying to find the right podcast to listen too while I deliver amazon packages and you guys take the cake! Thanks so much!
Check out Painkiller Already. It’s not about cars but it’s really funny and they sometimes have car guys on. They just had Matt Farah on
@@trueduckcommander I will thanks for the suggestion!
Love this show while I'm grindin on some boring solder work for a couple hours :)
I’m terrified to do it but thanks to you, I am very likely going to break open my headlight on my Genesis Coupe and black em out
@@AibohphobiAband nice 👍 Genesis Coupe is a PERFECT platform to learn on, especially BK1.
soldered for days/weeks while listening to past gas 😉
Jenson Button cherishes this 2009 season so much that his racing team, called the Jenson Team Rocket RJN, bears the same colors as Brawn did.
Without This miracle story Jenson would be another talented driver but never won the WDC..
i wish my circle of friends had someone like james.
The Malaysian Track is acctually named The Sepang International Circuit.Kuala Lumpur Is A City.
Please do an episode on the IKA Torino from Argentina. A LOT of history there. Fangio was involved in the making of it. Pininfarina design. And an 84hr Nürburgring race it sorta won on it's first ever abroad race. PLEASE!!
Speaking of Flavio Briatore, you guys should really make a podcast on crashgate.
Hi donut since I’m so early I’m asking if you could make a past gas on dakar pls
Oh yes
@@jackmoore9709 oh yes indeed
A b2b on one of those big Dakar trucks

"Iowa Spec Jeans" being from the state thats f***ing hilarious lol
Car “needs” or selling points for different eras (heat/ac, gps, abs, power steering)
I love how there is a whole commercial section in this episode it makes it a lot more interesting😂

Is it just me or does Joe kind of sound like TJ miller? (TJ Miller played comedic relief in Deadpool)
Absolute legend, still a legend today with Toto Wolfe
Does anyone remember when James dropped the hard-r on Key & Peele that was fun
Yall should do an episode on the world solar challenge
This team has won 8 of the last 12 constructors and drivers championships.
39:24 that was the most awkward thing ever. James and Joe didn't notice the joke
One story with this is that when one of the directors of honda told both brawn and fry that they are leaving the sport, he was in tears brining the news but said that if they couldn't find a buyer, they gave an option to buy the team and honda will give them the budget that was already allocated for them....
James looks like his about ready to go out at 1am to go steal car parts
Nolan getting ready to talk thinking James is finished singing
James 🎶🎶🎵🎶🎤
Dandruff is a serious problem James!😂
You know, I don’t really care about F1 at all and even this episode isn’t that interesting to me but y’all manage to make any subject enjoyable on this podcast so I thank you and want to tell you guys to keep up the great work!
Loving the Goodwood FOS footage, just the best event ever.
When are you guys gunna do lauda v hunt
Love the F1 stories as I live in Brackley and have been a huge fan practically since I could walk.
11:54 me and the boys when we hear "take out a piece of paper" (Nolan is like "ohhh , told you!")
I was super bummed when Honda pulled out of F1 in 08, only to learn that they were basically rebranded as Brawn GP and had 2 of my favorite drivers in Jensen and Reubens. Man, the 2009 a F1 season was like a fairytale for me!
I love James' accents btw quite fun (from a UK dude)
Nolan explaining Manscaped FULLY for 2:42 was the highlight of this Past Gas LOLO
Anyone thinking it is really just Nolan that is sponsored by manscapped
LIGHTNING!
LIGHTNING!
LIGHTNING!
Hey when is the new hilow coming?
Brawn GP and Brawn BGP001, the ultimate Formula One underdog!!!, An underdog who killed everything in its path, albeit just for one year
Maybe do a specific past gas series on the histories of different motorsports?, everything is so interesting :)
Jenson Button was seen as a bright star for UK racing and had not fulfilled his potential, and just before this happened Hamilton appeared and started killing it, so the English public had kind of, written Button off. So he was probably feeling a touch forgotten and looked over, It was a mad surprise to the general public when he won the Title, in a way its as much as a Button story as a Brawn story, which makes it even more crazy
Yeah, safe to say the season at Braun resurrected Button's career.
Great songs, James.

7:26 this is indeed a down with the sickness moment
720s is also my favorite mclaren. For some reason it looks better then a lot of their more expensive line up
This guy? This is no ordinary guy! This is ROSS BRAWN!!!!
Ayo I jus got a dart swinger 74 of Craigslist does it count as a barnfind
Not
Unless it was forgotten in a barn.
You ask if it counts as a “find”
When it’s listed on the most common sales website in the world.
Ever heard of silverstone one is there
for the record, it was 'Sepang International Circuit' (Malaysian GP)
A concrete post
I’m going to copy that one.
Joe always looks so into the reading of the story.
Dame could u fit any more adverts in There 😳🤣😂
Super greatful for the F1 knowledge. Also, Racing Point becomes Aston Martin next season.
My favorite piece of trivia about the Mclaren road engine is that it is actually a design by Nissan for the R390 race engine. Mclaren bought the IP from Nissan.

Anyone else notice the random manscaped clips popping up around the 53 minute mark? We doing subliminal marketing now lads 😂
I was just skipping through the ads and I just hear Nolan say “crop mop ball wipes”
