9:30 pm
a remote island, a testament to the quality of the waters. one of the many success stories from a bastion of biodiversity starts may 20th on d, w. a gets me every single tie we are living during the most extraordinary time in history of transport.
9:31 pm
we'll go pull the electric with rev the auto and mobility show. who is the bentley continental g t speed the best high performance luxury car on offer? if you press down the gas pedal, it will shoot for. can this mobility start up eas, nairobi air pollution problems? we can no longer than a blind eye to that contribution of chance. what based coupling emission is diabetes really no barrier to one's car dreams and i will be at the i'll give you more more. you see my job and then we'll know, well i don't have a while get of course i can walk automotive tails big and small right now on red.
9:32 pm
any time i test a car for you guys, i 1st ask myself, what is special about it? what would be interesting for you and sometimes but only sometimes the car itself is the special thing then you badly continental; gt; sweet and would that well come to the raft check to me the continental o g t speed always feels like some crazy scientist made a hybrid out of young arnold schwartzenegger and the roadrunner. ah, the chorus gets such a wide and muscular body,
9:33 pm
which would make you think it's not fast. but then if you press down the gas pedal it will shoot for what, leaving the co yodi and everyone else bite the dust. and that's simply impressive, especially if you consider the weight of more than $2.00 tons ah ha, gets me every single tie. the car's equipped with a w 12 engine delivering 659 horse power. the regular continental g t is also available with the w 12 engine, but there it will only have $635.00 horsepower so and they gave the speed version a little more. oh, i mean, of course, you got to differ from those regular
9:34 pm
w 12 version speed version makes the dash from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour in 3.6 seconds. and this sound is really nice. i really like it. but i have to say, if i had to choose i prefer the v 8. be curious. to me, it's somewhat sounds a little more little more aggressive a little more. i don't, i don't know, i can can describe it, but i prefer it. w 12 very nice, very powerful. no question. but the v 8. the sound is even better though it is of course less powerful. the 60 to engine is able to propel the car to a tough speed of 335 kilometers an hour.
9:35 pm
every time i drive the high performance car like this, part of me is having a fiesta with hands and other part of me is silently dying inside. ah, why? instead of course, i know cars with combustion engines with that much power. it also consume that much fuel and stuff are slowly dying out. the british comic is now focusing on hybrid versions and from 2030, every new bentley model will be purely electric. the interior of the bentley continental gt. speed is not that different from other continental g t models. you have
9:36 pm
a speed lettering somewhere here on the seeds and over there. of course what you see right away. everything is super high quality. nice material. it's very nice. ditching and everything is. yeah, very luxurious. just a good expected from a badly ah, what i do notice though is there is a lot of chrome and i'm talking about a lot of chrome. i mean the car on the outside has a lot of chrome as well. but in the interior it's even worth what i do like though, if the fact that bentley has still some buttons for the most important functions right here. and even better for the climate control down here and for seed heating and the ventilation. because that's, that's not normal. nowadays you often got carswell are no buttons at all and bent. they decided to keep those. and i really like that this in the,
9:37 pm
in the continental g t. s officially for cedar, as you can tell. but to be honest, the feedback here they are not made for anyone to fit it if ok, from the width. but if you put the feedback, then there will be no space there. ah, i'm impressed every single time i drive openly because the difference between, for example, comfort mode and then this more mode is so huge right now with driving and comfort and it feels like you're driving your grandfather's car. that is keeping everything smooth and is really relaxed, but you can switch to sport mode. you will instantly hear that by the sound and
9:38 pm
also be that once you press the gas pedal and the car becomes, yeah, it becomes your cool uncle call reckless. he's the one always having fun and being crazy in, in, in the instance the car fee, it's completely different. then i really like that. the seed is equipped with an electronic limited flip differential and active all wheel drive. as an option, you can get ceramic brakes for the continental g t speed and those are the world's largest brakes. and a series of production cost $440.00 millimeters at the front. and bentley says, these are virtually fade prove, even after 10 heavy stops, the maximum additional distance, the brakes will need are around one meter, and that's virtually nothing shifting is done via an ac. feel such transmission.
9:39 pm
that's it. my time with the new badly continental g t speed is over the car itself. i really enjoyed it. things we should definitely not talk about is the price and the fuel consumption because otherwise, people all around the world will start to cry. i'm sad as well. going to leave you thought i left, but i'm gonna tell you about the price. this car has a base price of 251300 years in germany. and if you add some options, like this car hairs, you will be very close 230-0000 car. this is making me said they were going to be able to afford such a car. the newest version of the bentley continental g t speed might be the last one of its kind. it is an incredibly sporty car with an
9:40 pm
extremely luxurious, comfortable ride, and a powerful sound. unfortunately, the price you have to pay to own $1.00 of these is prohibitive for almost every one every day. the same and kenya's capital nairobi tens of thousands of diesel fuel public transport vehicles, supply different routes through the city, emitting poisonous, exhaust gases and loss of noise. it's bad for the environment and it's bad for people's lungs. 20000 people die from air pollution in nairobi every year. but liners were serious, bass is different. up to 20 years of driving diesel vehicles. linus was able to make the switch to electric thanks to a local electro mobility starter. and he already appreciates the difference from
9:41 pm
a driver's point of view these know. 2 a lot of expenses in this bus like a diesel bus. for example, i used to do a, a service every month. this one knew you, you don't do any service. ah, the driving is also different. as you can see, there's no glass on her. yeah, yeah. so this is very smooth driving compared to what is the vehicle the company providing linus with the bus is bus. he go. it launched operations in nairobi in late 2021 and hopes to expand and transport public transport across east africa in the near future. i think we had that home while we can no longer and a blind eye to the contribution of transport based coupling emissions tool that
9:42 pm
environment. and it's definitely a great time for bussey. good to take the leads in providing alternative solutions to ensure that for at least public transportation shipped from the use of fossil fuels to clean energy. the company is operating to chinese made for you id, electric glasses. as the fleet expands, the aim is to assemble the next vehicles in kenya. each boss can cover a total of 250 kilometers on a full battery, which takes up to 4 hours to charge. the company buys each bus for about $39000.00 euros. it then sells them 2 operators for the same price as the diesel bus and charge is a use based subscription fee. this covers cost such as leasing the battery nike charging as well as service and maintenance though with regards to if they are gup. 045 is that maintenance?
9:43 pm
no, but i think it has all that to planned. what would like our drivers and the different operators to do is come pick the buses and just drive and enjoy the drive and leave the maintenance to buffy go. but they go, has currently trained a team of well, but engineers that know how to handle high voltage systems that know how to handle that different mechanical systems for their electric buses. so, but the goal currently is that the only provider of sabbath and maintenance with these buses in, in partnership with you? i did the idea is that upgrade his concludes profitability through the reduced fuel expenses and maintenance costs of electric classes. anthony bus is not a smoother to drive and less tiring for the drive is nairobi. passengers who i used his smoking, noisy, my talk to this as they're known locally. really notice the difference with a meal clean. thus, beyond the free, why fi and cell phone charging claims anymore?
9:44 pm
hang up on that one. this is the 1st time i've ordered this bus lights up and it's a bus that provides so many services that others cannot provide. but ya, some you've real relaxed inside or not and there's no noise. it's a nice bus, not galad. regarding him, jordan. passengers are paying the same level affairs from now. if this is hope to go down when operators get akira idea of the new running cars. classical hooks to increase its fleet of electric basses to 1000 in the next 5 years. crossing the finish line at the de carr rally was always a dream for daniel alberto. but as the 1st diabetic to compete in the event, the journey was harder than usual and his path was strewn with obstacles
9:45 pm
didn't every day i crossed the finish line is dedicated to old diabetics daniel is a complete motorhead, but at the age of 8, he was diagnosed with type one diabetes, a condition that was misunderstood at the time. i know i valley my parents wouldn't let me go out or do sports in school. i sat in a chair because they told me sport. good for people with diabetes thought well today we know better, but it's very important to play sports around. if you start walking, you'll end up running. many people in the world have diabetes. we can do anything, but just with more effort wouldn't work. well, we can achieve anything that we want to pursue coffee on, on the mac, luge on the last one will contain boggy of overwhelming. yeah. ramos in 2007, the financial crisis and a personal tragedy pulled the rug out from under daniel's feet, a turning point in his life. he also woke us up at
9:46 pm
a loss where did he thought i had a restaurant and i lost everything. i got the restaurant in my house, so we lost our son to still be or i think losing a child is the worst thing that happened to you. i mean i, that's when i began to see life differently to consider another future. it changes your life. i mean, i either will call annual every year i sat down to watch the dock a rally, but when one yes, someone asked on a tv show up. if someone with diabetes could participate in the race may have, i mean, i quickly called a friend and i said, hey, look what i've seen on tv. ripple, he said, you're crazy. like, how are you going to race the dachau? i'm, if i'm in the app, actually the data help both me and my family to get out of that hole. i think when something like this happens to you, you need a reason to live, to get up every morning and to fight for what you want to ask going for the about the annual general. what are we able to get? daniels wife man supported his de cartridge even when it seemed impossible to be. he lives in 1st we thought it was crazy that we could never make a but after everything that happened, we needed to hold on to something. tim,
9:47 pm
yvonne, it was, it was a challenge that we had to convince people to see that it can be done, but a good luck and they be adequacy. getting with a daniel hoped to be the 1st diabetic motorcycle rider to compete in the da car. but the organizers believe the event too dangerous for diabetic. daniel needed to fight hard to realize his dream were the thing boy, north, even after 5 years and many races all over the world. we showed them that i could be in the dock, our rally. we've diabetes, i raced in the room, lima in 2019 and was the 1st diabetic. and finally, i became the 1st in the dark god in the toughest race in the world. daniel, but in 2019, we couldn't finish in 2020. we were back on it. but couldn't finish either, but in 2021 when we finally managed to cross the finish line. and now in 2022, i want to be the 1st person with diabetes. time want to cross the finish line in a car when the m and t bono and was that i'm in that english before leaving for
9:48 pm
saudi arabia. daniel train hard at valencia in order to be ready for the race. he was guided by a laugher old siena who has trained some of the world's best motors board athens yet, but most demanding res. so we have to focus a lot on nutrition and energy expenditure because the same food doesn't work for diabetics. but from the i think i see was as an all assembly that on these project helps us because there's not much research about how to manage diabetes in high performance sport lab if you want to spread this data. so all diabetic athletes have the information just preparing for that cars, a mammoth task, which takes a whole year, daniel needed to find funding for his de carr dreams and get the car competition ready. or they were thought he is it because the budget for the last year and its crazy cartooning international license is what? a return trip to marcia driver,
9:49 pm
registrations. yeah. is 22000 euros. then the spare parts and tuning what that more than a $150000.00 euros per year. when the project started. no one gave is a penny law and no one believed that a person diabetes could be in the top is right in the world. if williams has thought a lot of them are good. finally, daniel made it happen. he travelled a saudi arabia with his co pilot and his wife ah, horribly. i'm looking it up for the agenda now. you're not the 4 days we got through all the administrative and technical checks, but everything has to be perfect. many people ask me what you do when your sugar level goes down in the car. yes, i can let it get to that point. little i need to control it all day in a little apart from driving pilots, im jumping june and stones dodging everything that comes towards us such as camels . we have to pay special attention to our travelling companion diaby. hey,
9:50 pm
why allow the other than me then it was time for a 1st taste of the cars, many challenges after a year of prep, nerves and tension. daniel and his co driver, jorge were at the prologue and raring to go. today we have nothing special. we go up and test in litigation 5 kilometers. then we arrive here at the beginning of the exit button though there. okay. okay, so everything's clear and kind of state where you come on, let's go for it. valuable. okay, now i just have to check the pump because it's hiding here. i want to see that everything is okay, but to as long as the sweat latch takes a lot of her life and so we have to keep an eye on it while it okay. blood glucose is perfect. we have to charge the battery to not do that. all righty. let's go with
9:51 pm
that. well, my very important my why is very important. she knows my diabetes inside out. i mean i'm having her by my side gives me a lot of security. she checks the insulin while traveling or repairing the car. she refreshes, everything changes my patched. one gives me fresh insulin. she's amazing. the highly recommend them is that we get a lot of messages that children are doing things that he didn't dream of before. yeah, that's very flattering to see that he's helping other people that out a hindu. mm hm. all of them all this year, we have a fairly large fridge. it's also very important to protect it from heat and cold law. that's the insulin for the entire race. whenever we travel to countries where it's complicated to get this type of medicine, different i always take 2 or 3 times more than i need to wear everything i mentor his company. go for showing him before you either log onto that portal or from
9:52 pm
a portrait. after a 900 kilometer transport stage between jetta and how you the competitive stages of that a car rally were finally set to begin. i daniel is his own mechanic and painstakingly ensured that his car was completely ready for the challenges that lay ahead and re fuel. so that to morrow everything will be okay for the next stage. for my mother, again, that number's been gay, diesel and insulin time you have to be filled every day. the. he destroys the hormones and it loses its properties and then the insulin stops working. so you see that the glucose rises and you don't know why the rest of it. i have a type one diabetes tattoo my right arm with
9:53 pm
a blue circle. and then if we have an accident of 4 and becoming conscious, it's important that the person who picks up knows that we're diabetics. so we can be treated properly, although our lives can depend on this, on the out of those 2 young article commerce truffle doodle thought, well, nobody would go get it. everybody asked, why do you die? your head blue. you look like a smooth a former? no, i don't look like a smooth, it's something else. you know, it's a way of showing the whole world. the blue is our color. it and blue is the color of hope. the hope that all people with diabetes, half the one day it can be cured when we can stop being diabetics. you know, here i carry the insulin pump which marks my records from the glucose meter that have installed here on my arm. it's our telemetry injectors. be more or less insulin, for example, if i'm going to eat 5 servings for dinner, we would insert 50 grams and it calculates directly the amount of insulin we need to have a little bit longer than i want, elijah, the not gonna be the most of the navigation board that i use, i have to get this graph in the yellow field,
9:54 pm
just like my blood glucose. i must always keep it completely flat. i can see it on my mobile over that and my co pilot has it on his watch. and if i get distracted, he also pays attention. so we can control it perfectly easy way that mr. your boss is dameion lula will always monitor drug both in our professional and daily library . follow them though, and got another one. arthur hill, deanna with what are the i was wanting, it's 6 in the morning. can you hear that of an engine right next to was run all night? back on me,
9:55 pm
you need to get used to sleeping in to night. some trucks were there to repairing all night. if you don't manage to dallas and you can't sleep well, then it can change a lot. you often get into arguments about things that don't make sense and you realize that it's just the sleep deprivation. you have to realize that this can happen a lot about her then it was time to take on the jews. daniel proudly flew his diabetes flag at the ceremonial start and launched himself into the desert. he at 12 stages to prove to himself and to the world that limit shows they are to be broken. i didn't every day i crossed the finish line is dedicated to old diabetics. after more than 8000 kilometers,
