The F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix will be the biggest sporting event in the world in 2023

I think it's gonna be the biggest sporting event globally this year. I really do. I think that the interest and the hype around that race, I mean, a Saturday night race down the strip in Vegas, who doesn't wanna be there?

PredictionRacingMediumSubjective
The inaugural Las Vegas GP was a massive financial and viewership success, though 'biggest globally' is subjective compared to the Super Bowl or Champions League final.

The Warriors are nearly unbeatable when Klay Thompson scores 30 or more points

Klay Thompson, when he scores 30 or more points... 64 and 10. Pretty good. When he has, when he's the perfect amount of high for a game, when he takes his edible and times it out perfectly before the game and he goes off, the Warriors win those games.

Fact ClaimBasketballMild
As of the episode date, the Warriors were statistically dominant when Klay hit the 30-point mark.

The Lakers-Warriors series is going to seven games

It feels like this is gonna be a seven game series. I'm very, very excited... I like, I can't decide who's going to win this series because I do still think the Lakers when AD is on pose some significant issues for the Warriors. I think it's going seven. I really do.

PredictionBasketballMild
The Lakers defeated the Warriors in 6 games, winning 4-2. The series did not reach Game 7.

F1 teammates in Europe generally hate each other because they are each other's biggest career threat

Call a teammate in Europe, they fucking hate each other. Because it's the one guy that's going to kill his career. So they play team, but the reality is they both want to beat each other.

OpinionRacingMediumSubjective
This is a subjective claim from a team principal with decades of experience; it's considered an industry standard view in F1.

Formula One needs a star American driver for the sport to truly take off in the US

That's what the U.S. need. We've got to get a decent American driver running in Formula One. And as soon as that happens, I think the US will just take off even more.

OpinionRacingMildSubjective
The sport did take off significantly due to 'Drive to Survive', even without a major American driver on the podium, but Horner's point about a US star remains a central goal of Liberty Media.
