I just looked at Lionel's Race Week clip on Youtube. He definitely looked tired after the long trip which is totally understandable. It is also clear, to me at least, how Jan is a true professional, comfortable in his skin and on home soil. Lionel seems a bit in awe of and nervous around him. That turn-around ramp looks super fun!

Lionel looks like someone from Economy who has been invited to the First Class Lounge for the first time and doesn't know how it all works.

This is a good analogy actually. Did you see him ask Jan about the air pressure? Jan was like: "Uh no. I don't check that sh*t every day. We are racing head-to-head, you know, so we will both have to deal with the same air pressure."
Gee you guys can be sad...and dare I say pathetic in the petty mocking.
The context as always is key, it was actually Frodo who raised the topic of air pressure when discussing how quick the bike might be.
Sanders then went on to explain how when he was going for his hour record he was monitoring it as it can make a difference of 20 Watts. Frodo then gave the back hander of 'not checking that shit' which I thought was pretty rude and arrogant.
I was not trying to mock him. To me, as I stated, it was easy to see how awestruck he was. Maybe the editing did not help him but I would be surprised if even the most ardent LS fans did not notice that.
