We’re back with another episode of Grand Pricks, and this time things are getting dark.

For the first time ever, Reem has done ALL the research, which means Issy and Nav are about to learn things about F1 that they’ve never heard before.

But before we get into the dark stuff, we have a very exciting announcement: we’ve officially been shortlisted for the 2026 Independent Podcast Awards! To celebrate, Reem prepared a Grand Pricks pop quiz to see just how well the girlies - and fans - actually know the podcast.

Then, we’re going full true crime mode and diving into some of the darkest, strangest and most chaotic stories in F1 history, including:

• The kidnapping of Juan Manuel Fangio
• The Max Mosley sex scandal
• The downfall of Adrian Sutil
• The 2022 Austrian GP harassment scandal
• The jail sentence that gave Michael Schumacher his F1 debut

We’re breaking down what happened, the people involved and the wider impact these stories had on the sport.

We’ll be back next week with a brand new episode covering the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, so make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss it!
