That about sums up 2 of the 3 most interesting things about the Japanese Grand Prix this weekend. The other one was, of course, Max Verstappen’s blistering Q3 lap for pole position. But there was fire aplenty at trackside and you’ve got to feel for Isack Hadjar after his seatbelts were causing him grief in what Top Gear would describe as “The Gentleman’s area”
This week on the pod we try and make up things to say about one of the dullest Japanese GP’s we’ve had the pleasure of sitting through, it was the first race outside of Monaco where the top 6 on the grid were the top 6 by the end of the race and that stat would have gone further down the order had Lewis not passed Hadjar’s Racing Bull to break the tedium (we’re really selling this episode aren’t we!)
There are thankfully a few tangents to break the parade up and there’s a great Is That Glock as well, so it’s not all that bad!
