An interview with Mr Slot.it - and a golden opportunity to brush up your German!

(But don't mention the war...)

Nice, love that despite him being italian, he reverts to english when he runs out of words..

Good one Maurizio, impressive german!

The new chip he shows is Oxigen/Carrera/Scalextric multi-system

Improving my German watching this: plug and play in German is.... plug and play

 

[GRUNZ]

The guy is a genius

Nice tie by the way

Apparently I come from German stock (well Prussian, plus a bit a Irish & Pommy) and it's 4 generations back (mom's, dad's parents were German/Prussian).

I now wished I had spent more time with Pop learning more than just counting from 1 to 10 and I may have been able to understand this interview, unfortunately the most German I know was from watching Hogan's Hero's, "I know nothings"

.

It would be great if someone put some subtitles to this interview.

I couldn't understand much at all, but I couldn't help but to think how proffessional the whole thing is.

In my mind I bought about 5 new cars while watching.

Yup, full translation please

I could do it but I would need incentive... anyone want to send me some digital lane changers (all variations?) :-D

The only digits I have are attached to my hands and feet. My sister got all the language genes in our family so it looks as if I will have to just look at the pictures!

 

[dvd3500]

I could be tempted for a complete TR7 as well. :-D

Or some digital chips?

This is no small feat as the German is actually a Bavarian and Mr Ferrari goes in and out of the languages so it is like translating 3 languages at once!

 

[chris99]

Try Youtube auto-translate. Far from perfect and often gobbledegook but better than nothing!

Switch on subtitles and then select auto-translate in settings (both ringed in the pic)

This is great practice for my german comprehension.
Who gives a monkey's about listening to restaurant scenarios when I can listen to Maurizio waxing lyrical about his products?

Did I pick this up correctly?
The policar Ferrari classic f1 is delayed due to the corona virus in China?

[RikoRocket]

Thanks for the top tip Chris99!

 

[RikoRocket]

I think he said a couple of weeks delay due to the clinical situation in China.

I hope he is right, and that it is only a slight pause, I know one factory that had delayed until today still didn't open.

 

[spykerman]

I am thinking Maurizio is giving some non-verbal hint, anybody else seen it too? (no need to play the vid, just look at the pic)

Surprising how much I gathered, a long unfulfilled ambition to have better German.
