The debut of the Miami Grand Prix was hailed as the big showbiz event that F1 has been waiting for, especially since Chase Carey promised us “23 SuperBowls a year” and while it certainly seems […]

So Miami then. We’ve not had a car turn a wheel and there’s people up in arms about the fake marina and beach club in one of the turns. TBH all we’re bothered about if […]

So we’ve had our first sprint race of the season and you could say it went pretty well for Red Bull and Max Verstappen in particular after his grand slam weekend of pole (and starting […]

Sorry for missing last week as the ‘rona made its way into 3Legs Towers and knocked Paul for if not 6, then at least 5 and we couldn’t get Nico Hulkenberg to be our last […]

F1 is back officially, the 2022 season (with the 2021 rules) is finally here and with a race like we got this weekend, it was worth the wait. This week on the podcast we get […]

As is now traditional this week of every year we get the double hit of pre-season testing (not a shakedown) and Drive To Survive, so in our own way we’ve done a bit of a […]

The Shakedown (not a test) is over and the cars are heading out to Bahrain for not only the actual pre-season test (not a shakedown) but also the 1st race of the 2022 season with […]

After a couple of false alarms (we’re looking at you Haas &  RedBull) we finally got to see some real life cars in the last week with the McLaren & Aston Martin launches, and don’t […]

A slightly belated Happy New Year from all of us on the podcast. We did plan on doing a season review, but how do you easily sum up a year like 2021? Simple answer is […]

There were so many names we could have given this week’s podcast given the controversial nature of the 2021 season finale in Abu Dhabi this past weekend. But we’ve decided to err on the side […]

Are any of us sure what we watched at the weekend? In all the years of F1 I don’t think any of us have seen a race quite like the first ever Saudi Arabian Grand […]

Another Grand Prix and another aero related controversy. This time it was all over the question about some suspect markings on the Mercedes rear wings. Once again the battle between the 2 main antagonists (not […]

Well that was a weekend in Brazil that will be talked about for a long time to come and may not be all sorted yet as the pod comes out. The newly renamed Sao Paolo […]

Another race back on the calendar after the madness that was 2020 is the Mexico City Grand Prix (formerly known as the Mexico Grand Prix.) With a new name to reflect that it’s the city […]

The US Grand Prix is always a major spectacle and this year was no exception as the organisers of the Austin race went all out to make up for missing out on a race in […]

First I want to say a massive thanks to everyone (literally hundreds of you) that got in touch after my message last week and the best way I could think of to say thank you […]

Sorry we’ve been away for a couple of weeks and missed the aftermath of the Russian Grand Prix, we’re still upset about the whole thing over a week later and it’s taken that long to […]

This weekend’s Italian Grand Prix broke a few losing streaks, we got to see the first McLaren win since 2012, the first 1-2 by the papaya team since 2010 and the first Daniel Ricciardo winning […]

The return of the Dutch Grand Prix finally happened a year late thanks to the turmoil of 2020 and that was an atmosphere worth waiting for. We all knew beforehand that the circuit would be […]

By now the dust and spray has settled on what has been called a farce of a Belgian Grand Prix and with the benefit of a good night’s sleep and a chance to calm down […]

Fresh off the back of the British Grand Prix controversy, all we needed was for things to get back to normal before the F1 summer break right? Well we didn’t get that did we! 6 […]

I think we can safely say that was a British Grand Prix like no other before it. Qualifying on Friday evening, the first ever F1 Sprint (don’t call it a) race on Saturday afternoon and […]

Formula 1 is the only real thing that is 100% guaranteed to come home every year, only by dint of the fact that the 1st world championship race was at Silverstone, so we can count […]
