Episode 17 - The Miami Grand Prix is just around the corner so here’s your pre-race intro. It’s the circuit's first time hosting a sprint and while still fairly new to Formula One, it’s definitely making a splash in the sport. I’ll share some info about the circuit as well revisit past pre-race events and podiums.

Episode 16 - So Ferrari finally did their big reveal of the special livery for the Miami Grand Prix. The general consensus is that it failed to deliver (WHERE IS THE BLUE?!?!) but some fans probably saw it coming, likely the ones who weren’t overly excited like a select group of crazed fans (myself included).

Let’s talk about how the livery change had probably been in the works for awhile considering the timely announcement of Ferrari’s new title sponsor, HP - and what a massive partnership it is. I'll also revisit all of the mixed signals their social media admins were giving us - or maybe it was classic me, overthinking LOL. Again, I’m not mad. (If I say it enough, does it make it more or less believable?)

Episode 15 - We know we won't see red Ferraris at the Miami Grand Prix next weekend but why’d they choose blue? Let’s get into the significance of this through a quick and interesting history lesson.

Episode 14 - I have a new guest with me to review the craziness this season's first Formula One sprint weekend! Rick joins me for his premiere podcast experience and the Chinese Grand Prix gave us so much to talk about - from the rain in SQ3 to a new leader for half of the sprint to P2 in Q3 changing six times AFTER the checkered flag and finally, to the race where we saw three safety cars and three DNF’s. After being cancelled four years in a row, Shanghai came back with a vengeance and did NOT disappoint. What a race. And if you know us personally, you just KNOW, we end up calling each other out on something. Enjoy, race fans!

Episode 13 - With the Chinese Grand Prix being the first of six sprint weekends in the Formula One season, I’ll highlight the differences between this and a regular race weekend including the change to the 2024 format. Spoiler Alert: the main race qualies are where they belong - the last session before the Grand Prix.

Episode 12 - Let’s delve into what happens in the days leading up the race. It’s a four-day affair filled with things like media obligations, practice sessions, meetings, and qualifiers, all leading up the big podium celebration. I’ll delve into all of the mandatory events, meetings, and sessions for the teams and as always, go on my little tangents about what I love/hate and how changes to these regulations came about.

Episode 11 - We’ll revisit the highs and lows of the race this weekend. I’m joined by Chris who is, by far, my most special guest yet - probably the cutest and sweetest too, though I might be biased.

We’ll talk about it all -

• the continuation of the Williams Curse (poor Albon and Sargeant),
• McLaren and Ferrari's strategies and Leclerc's tire management,
• Tusnoda’s success at his home race,
• the shockingly friendly position swaps between teammates at Mercedes and Ferrari,
• Penelope cheering Verstappen on, and
• a quick bonus chat about the Suzuka Circuit and amusement park.

We’re packing in all of this in under 16 minutes so hold on and enjoy the ride. 🏁🏎💨🇯🇵

Episode 10 - That time I got to drive on an actual Grand Prix circuit!!! A favourite amongst both drivers and fans - the Suzuka Circuit. In preparation for this weekend’s race, here’s a quick episode including:

• the race’s history including Jules Bianchi’s tragic accident,
• my drive down on the track and some pointers if you ever plan on heading over there, and
• the unique layout of the track.

Basically a summary of why this is the coolest track on the race calendar this year, in my humble and unbiased opinion 😉🏁🏎💨🇯🇵
