Shadowing-Übung: Carlos Sainz Rates Tokyo Drift, Talladega Nights, and F1 Movie Clips | Slice Joint - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

Here we go.

So I am here now.

How did he know?

He plays a lot this game man.

I haven't played in a long time.

Respect man.

Thank you my brother.

I see pizza.

Yes we got some pizza coming for you.

What was your pizza of choice?

Margarita.

Dig in though.

We got some good pizza here.

I love pizza by the way.

It's a good slice, right?

Good pizza.

You know, I've lived in Italy, but I feel like New York pizza has a thing.

No, it is.

It's like a...

Like maybe an Italian wouldn't rate the New York pizza so highly, but for Spanish that I'm more neutral.

I love the Italian pizza, the pure Napolitan one, but when I come here, this one does the...

Does the job.

Yeah, yeah.

I actually don't like to tell people this, but I actually am the one who makes the pizza.

Really?

No. I was like, you're a pro.

Do you drive a lot when you're not on the clock working?

I drive a lot, but mainly because I like driving myself to places.

OK.

And this is actually not very common.

When I talk to my other F1 drivers, or they prefer to sit on the back and relax, be on the phone.

First of all, I feel I'm more efficient.

And I feel like when I drive, it's not that I go fast on the road, but I feel like I know my way well.

Waste tells me this long it's gonna take, I always feel like I take a bit shorter.

In America it's not bad.

There's other countries out there like Italy or Spain that is a bit more wild.

I feel more comfortable in the wild, wilder wild.

I can express more myself.

But yeah, in places like London, for example, everyone's, Germany, people are super precise with the indicators and everything.

Have you ever gotten pulled over before?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, many times, unfortunately.

Really?

But not for anything too bad.

Have you ever had someone recognize you on the road, like maybe drive alongside you and like rev the engine or something to try to race you?

Yeah, there's been a few times.

When I was living in Italy, there's a race like two hours away from where I was living, so I would just drive to the race.

And at the time I had a really nice Ferrari that Ferrari would lend me to drive there.

I would suddenly leave the truck, go in the highway and obviously just drive back home.

But all the fans from all the race were living also at the same time.

In the same direction too.

So the whole road was just me and a Ferrari and just two or three cars like following me.

Following the F1 driver that they had just watched at the race.

Following me back home and I said, should I take the right exit?

I don't want people following me.

At the last second, just pit.

Just get off.

Pit entry.

It's not every day that I get to sit across from one of the best drivers in the world.

And so I want to show you a couple clips

or scenes from driving movies and have you just kind of react to them

and you let me know how accurate they actually are.

This first one is from Fast and Furious, Tokyo Drift.

You ever seen the movie?

Parking is pretty impressive.

If they did that, they're Superman.

As someone who has drifted a bunch, is something like that realistic?

Well, let's clarify first.

I'm not a professional drifter, so I don't know what a professional drifter can do.

I know how to drift a car, but not to the level of a professional drifter.

My expertise and my experience tells me that filming that scene without a scratch would almost be impossible.

I feel like it was filming static and the thing was rotating.

You know, rather than...

The car moving itself.

That gave me the feeling and the vibe.

Still, what they did is pretty impressive.

Just to come up even with the idea.

Yeah.

It's quite cool, no?

Yes.

Have you ever been tempted to like enter into like the street racing scene?

Not so much, no. I enjoy circuits

because circuit is where you just can go flat out without caring about anything and anyone else.

If you get it wrong, you're not harming other people.

Right.

You're harming yourself.

If you had to rate

that Tokyo Drift scene on a scale from one to ten in terms of how you feel its accuracy is.

It's a ten out of ten in terms of coolness.

It's a good effect of laughs out there.

In terms of realism, I would say three out of ten.

Three out of ten realism.

Yeah.

Okay.

That's real.

This next one is from a movie called Talladega Nights.

Okay.

I heard about this one.

Okay.

Here we go.

100

It's one of the favorite movies of Alex's album, I think.

101

Oh, he likes his movie?

102

Yes.

103

Oh, dang.

104

The typical gear shit.

105

Okay.

106

That can happen.

107

All right.

108

So this is NASCAR, a little bit different from F1.

109

What is your take on what you just saw there?

110

I think the cars are real.

111

The filming of the cars and the crashes I think are actually real.

112

It's everything that happens inside the cockpit that makes me laugh.

113

You know like all the pa-pa, gear shifts, aggressive gear shifts and the car suddenly moves forward more.

114

It's like, no, that's not.

115

Doesn't really work like that.

116

The talking, the letting the steering go and complaining.

117

We do that a bit in F1.

118

You put the hand up or you complain but I feel like it's always in Hollywood, excited.

119

Yeah, you got to turn it up a bit.

120

So on a scale from one to ten, that same scale we have, what do you rate this scene?

121

I think this one is a bit more realistic, especially the car thing, so I will give it a six out of ten.

122

Okay.

123

Instead of coolness, also a ten out of ten.

124

Ten out of ten.

125

I think there are two good movies.

126

Okay.

127

All right, we got one last one here for you.

128

This last one is a movie that you're probably familiar with.

129

The F1.

130

This is the F1 movie.

131

And now here comes Kevin Magnusson.

132

Slow is smooth.

133

Smooth is fast.

134

Here we go, boys.

135

Here we go, boys.

136

Okay.

137

So this F1 movie, first of all, talk to me about being a part of it.

138

I mean, sharing Paddock with Brad Pitt and all the crew was insane.

139

An incredible experience for all of us.

140

Also, actually getting to see the way they produce it, the way they filmed it, bringing all the same camera material that they used to film Top Gun Maverick,

141

using the same special effects.

142

Amazing.

143

Honestly, what they do, you understand why this industry is so good at it and so famous.

144

And what they did with Formula One, I think what they did was super interesting

145

because they filmed everything on track with us and all the content is inside F1 races.

146

So it gives it an extra level of realism that I think in the film it captivates, you know, it takes you there.

147

All these scenes are real because I've seen them.

148

They were getting real live TV footage of a real F1 race and with the cameras they have, they put the Apex car,

149

which is their thing, on top of your car.

150

So it's me doing me in a normal race, I'm actually racing, and then they put their car on top.

151

How technology can do that, I have no idea.

152

So yeah, as real as it gets, then you have the Hollywood touch, which is maybe what the mechanic says about smooth is fast,

153

fast is smooth, I don't remember.

154

That would come, for example, from our team strategies, would tell really seriously all all the mechanics on the radio.

155

Smooth is fast, take it easy is not a fundamental pitch, but it wouldn't come from shouting a mechanic to another.

156

That's Hollywood.

157

What would you rate that scene on a scale of one to ten?

158

This one, I would say in terms of realism, eight or nine out of ten.

159

And then how about just coolness?

160

Eleven.

161

This is really...

162

I've heard that Brad Pitt said that you have a career in Hollywood.

163

What did you feel when you heard that?

164

If Brad Pitt says it, then I'm waiting for my offers.

165

It's such a tight-knit community.

166

You know, you got 22 full-time drivers.

167

Over the course of a season, maybe a couple other guys pop in.

168

But you guys have all kind of grown up together, known each other for so many years.

169

And so I want to throw some superlatives at you, and you just tell me who it is fits the category best.

170

OK?

171

OK.

172

All right.

173

So we'll start with who do you think is the most naturally athletic?

174

I don't want to sound like that, but I do every sport.

175

If you call me for golf, football, paddle, I can do a decent job at it.

176

And I'll say myself, I think second best, Pierre Gasly is super athletic.

177

Yeah, he has a similar lifestyle in that sense.

178

He loves, now he's into golf, paddle, and he's good at it.

179

So I'll say Gasly, don't say it myself.

180

Who do you think is the driver that is the best dressed?

181

Oof, interesting.

182

I don't rate very highly the way F1 drivers dress.

183

They're pushing it a bit too hard, with all the cameras entering the paddock.

184

Yeah, like a runway.

185

I think it's a bit too much.

186

Okay.

187

I'll give, so I, but fair play to them.

188

If they wanna do it, do it.

189

Not my, like they say in England, not my cup of tea.

190

Which driver do you think is like, before a big media day, is like looking at themselves in the mirror for the longest?

191

I think that's quite easy.

192

I think it will be a big battle between Lewis and George.

193

I knew you were going to say Lewis, but George.

194

Lewis and George.

195

Which driver do you find to be the most competitive, even in just like something that's off the track?

196

Charles Leclerc.

197

He's super competitive.

198

We were extremely competitive.

199

We were playing chess, for example, on airplanes, and he used to get really, really upset when he lost.

200

On track, he also was very competitive.

201

Yeah, I think he's the most competitive.

202

Are you good at chess?

203

I have an app now, chess.com, that I play online.

204

What level are you?

205

Not great.

206

I'm still getting there.

207

I'm working my way.

208

I'm working my way.

209

Yeah, yeah.

210

All right, last one.

211

Which driver do you think secretly loves the attention the most?

212

All of them.

213

All of us.

214

Why do you say all of them?

215

Do you guys really enjoy that?

216

No, I can tell you who doesn't the most.

217

Alex Albon, my teammate.

218

Doesn't like it.

219

He really doesn't like it.

220

He loves the racing and not that he doesn't like he stands good on camera.

221

He does a good job on camera, but he couldn't care less about cameras and attention and fame.

222

He's a very pure spiritual individual.

223

Yeah, he's like really there for what he enjoys doing and I respect him a lot for that.

224

Do you remember what one of like the first big purchases you made was

225

when you got your first big Formula One check?

226

For me, I was seven years in F1 before I bought my first car.

227

Seven years?

228

And that's because I really like my Golf.

229

I mean, it's a great Golf GTI that my parents gave me when I was 18.

230

Famous video on Instagram about that Golf, which we can watch later.

231

Then I became a Ferrari F1 driver.

232

And when I became a Ferrari F1 driver, I was like, okay, now I have access to the most incredible cars in the world.

233

I actually have access to be a collectionist of some of the most exclusive cars in the world

234

and I bought my first Ferrari when I was 27.

235

I bought it because I loved it and

236

and I felt like I need to give myself a bit

237

of a yeah like a price for making it to Ferrari as an F1 driver.

238

Do you think F1 drivers get enough credit for being as athletic as they are?

239

I don't think so I don't think people realize how physical and F1 carries.

240

I think they just imagine us sitting down and driving, you know, like you are in a car.

241

But then once you introduce the speed that we go and the G-force, that raises your heart rate to around 160 beats per minute.

242

I don't know if you do a lot of sport.

243

Yeah, but I don't measure my heart rate.

244

You don't measure your heart rate.

245

It's like if you start running at fast pace.

246

But we do that for an hour and a half.

247

So yeah, by the end of the hour

248

and a half race we've probably consumed as many calories or as much effort as a half marathon, to give you an example.

249

Plus we need good neck muscles and shoulders, core, glutes to sustain all the g-force that goes through your body.

250

I think the closest thing to it would be a fighter jet.

251

You're sitting down, you're just piloting, but the forces that you see in a fighter jet is is maybe to a lesser scale,

252

lower scale, what we're doing in Formula One.

253

Everyone always talks about the reflex of Formula One drivers.

254

You'll see videos of you guys going hundreds of miles an hour

255

and your ability to just kind of like move out the way at the last second is incredible.

256

So I wanted to play this game with you that we play.

257

I don't know if you guys played in Europe, but in America growing up we play it, where you put your hands on top of somebody else.

258

I go like this and I have three chances to try to hit your hand

259

and you have to move it out the way.

260

But can you do both at the same time or one?

261

Yes, both at the same time.

262

And we'll do three each.

263

Careful with my hands.

264

I will, don't worry.

265

Keep me hard.

266

Doesn't matter.

267

Okay, I got one.

268

That does count?

269

I hit it!

270

Okay, so it has to really...

271

Okay, alright, alright, here we go.

272

That was one.

273

Keep me hard.

274

Oh good one!

275

That was good!

276

I like the little...

277

You caught me there!

278

One more, one more!

279

Then I hit you, yeah?

280

Yeah, then you!

281

Okay!

282

Does that count or no?

283

No, so one!

284

Two, I give you two!

285

Two out of three!

286

The first one and the second!

287

Alright!

288

Here we go!

289

So I am here now, yeah?

290

Yes!

291

How did he know?

292

This guy plays a lot this game man.

293

I haven't played this in a long time.

294

Respect man.

295

Thank you my brother.

296

You played?

297

Not in a long time.

298

Okay.

299

Decor.

300

That was a good one.

301

He rocked me to sleep there.

302

I wanted to see how I'm comfortable with you.

303

Man you don't.

304

I was I'm starting.

305

I'm trying to win.

306

That's what I did.

307

All right one more.

308

That was a good one now.

309

You caught it.

310

All right last one Pick no, you didn't bite.

311

He's getting never bites lights

312

Good stuff, Carlo.

313

That was very good.

314

What do you what do you got going on?

315

What are you promoting?

316

Nothing.

317

I'm just here Why am I here?

318

I'm going to Canada tomorrow to an F1 race.

319

Before we go Let's take a picture so that we can put it up on the wall with everyone else.

320

One, two, three.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
