Fast Ones

Fast Ones Productions

The Fast Ones is a weekly Formula 1 podcast for fans who want real insight without pretending this sport makes any sense. We break down every race weekend — from strategy disasters and steward decisions to championship swings and teammate rivalries — all with a healthy mix of analysis, sarcasm, and occasional loss of composure. Whether it’s Mercedes and Ferrari turning teammates into enemies, Max Verstappen quietly lurking in the title fight, or Haas somehow stealing the spotlight, nothing is off-limits and nobody is safe. We’ll make predictions we fully intend to stand by (until we don’t), call out the nonsense when we see it, and occasionally wander off into motorsport tangents, IndyCar debates, and whatever else feels relevant in the moment. If you love F1 but don’t need another robotic recap — welcome in.

    Ep 138: Audi's Shakeup, Verstappen's DQ & Why Suzuka's the Greatest Track

    Jonathan Wheatley is gone from Audi after just two races, Mattia Binotto is back in the team principal seat (cue the Ferrari PTSD), and Aston Martin's Honda nightmare is getting worse by the weekend. Could Wheatley's move to Silverstone signal something bigger brewing behind the scenes? Mike has a theory, and it involves a power unit swap nobody's talking about yet. Meanwhile, Max Verstappen dominated a four-hour race at the Nürburgring in a Mercedes GT3 — only to get disqualified two hours later because his team used seven sets of tyres instead of six. McLaren's title defense hit rock bottom in China with a double DNS after both cars suffered electrical failures, Pérez somehow made his Cadillac debut even worse by spinning into his own teammate on lap one, and the calendar just lost Bahrain and Saudi Arabia to geopolitics. Then we look ahead to the race every driver dreams about. Suzuka — the figure-of-eight, the S-curves, 130R at 300 km/h, and the most passionate fans in motorsport. Vettel said it was designed by the gods. Hamilton says every lap feels like driving through history. And for one episode, we're going to tell you why it's the greatest circuit on the Formula 1 calendar and why this Japanese Grand Prix might be where the 2026 season truly reveals itself. It's race week, zero filter, all the chaos.

    Ep 137: Grande Kimi! Antonelli's First Win, Ferrari Fireworks & McLaren Double DNS

    Grande Kimi. That's the headline, and it deserves to be said twice. Kimi Antonelli just won his first Formula 1 Grand Prix in Shanghai, becoming the second youngest race winner in the sport's history — and doing it with the kind of composure that had the entire paddock on its feet. We'll talk about the commentator accidentally calling him Kimi Räikkönen (honestly, fair enough), how he handled the pressure of leading from the front after that near heart-attack moment at Turn 14, and why this kid already feels like something special. But Shanghai wasn't just the Kimi show. The Ferraris put on an absolute spectacle — Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc went wheel to wheel for lap after lap in a battle that was fierce, fair, and genuinely thrilling to watch. We'll break down how that fight played out and what it says about the dynamic inside the Scuderia right now. Then there's the sprint race: Russell extending his perfect start to 2026, Hamilton charging from fourth to lead, and the chaos of trying to set up these brand new cars on a sprint weekend with barely any practice. Ollie Bearman drove the wheels off the Haas for a stunning P5 in the race, Carlos Sainz dragged the Williams into the points, and Pierre Gasly continues his quietly excellent form at Alpine. And yes — we have to talk about McLaren. Both cars failed to even start the race after separate electrical failures on the Mercedes power units. Piastri hasn't started a Grand Prix in 2026. That's a crisis. We'll cover it. Two races in, and this season is already delivering drama we didn't expect this early. Let's get into it.

    Ep 136: New Regs, Same Ferrari: Australian GP Chaos & the Drivers Want Answers

    The 2026 era of Formula 1 is officially here — and it arrived with heartbreak, controversy, and Ferrari doing Ferrari things. The Australian Grand Prix delivered unbelievable wheel-to-wheel racing in its opening weekend under the new regulations, but the strategy calls from the pit wall in Maranello proved once again that the boys in red have a gift for turning good days into painful ones. We'll break down the full race from start to finish, including the home race curse that continues to haunt Australian drivers and the tension between George Russell and Charles Leclerc that's already bubbling over before we've even left Melbourne. Then there's the elephant on the grid: Max Verstappen has been vocal about his frustrations with the new regulations, and he's no longer singing solo. A growing chorus of drivers are joining him in questioning whether this rule set is actually delivering what it promised. Is the criticism fair this early, or are they just adjusting to a car they haven't figured out yet? We'll talk about it. First race in the books, plenty already on fire. Welcome to 2026.

    Ep 135: Lights Out 2026: DTS Debate, Leclerc's Wedding & What to Expect in Melbourne

    The wait is over. Formula 1 is back, the regulations are new, and we have absolutely no idea what's going to happen — which is exactly how we like it. This week we're kicking off the 2026 season with everything that's been swirling around the paddock heading into Melbourne. Charles Leclerc got married, and we have thoughts. Drive to Survive dropped its eighth season, and the internet is split on whether the show still matters or whether it's run its course — we're breaking that debate down with our most reliable chat regulars. Then we get into the racing: Aston Martin swears they've turned a corner, Mercedes has been suspiciously quiet in a way that either means they're cooking or they've burned the kitchen down, and Max Verstappen's already told us the Red Bull will show up with the same colors and not much else. What can we actually expect when these brand new cars hit Albert Park for real? We'll speculate, we'll overreact, and we'll probably lose focus at least twice. Welcome to 2026.

    Ep 134: Sandbagging Season: F1 Testing Week 2, Ferrari Tricks & Poker Faces

    Week two of testing is in the books, and somehow we know even less than we did after week one. This week we dig into the latest from the Scuderia — Ferrari's brought some genuinely innovative parts to the table, and the Ferrari-powered teams have been pulling insane launches off the line that have the whole paddock side-eyeing their power unit. Meanwhile, Mercedes appears to have shown up to testing with the handbrake on, sandbagging their way through sessions like they're playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. We'll talk about the endless poker game that is pre-season — who's bluffing, who's panicking behind closed doors, and who's just hoping nobody notices how lost they are. The gap between testing and lights out is shrinking, and every team is holding their cards a little tighter. And as always, we'll find something to roast. We always do.

    Ep 133: F1 2026 Testing: Aston Gearbox Trouble & A Very Real George Russell Problem

    Testing is supposed to give us clarity. Instead, it has given us anxiety. This week we break down our increasingly skeptical takes on the 2026 pecking order after a chaotic round of pre-season running. Between odd new starting procedures, Aston Martin’s gearbox headaches, and a paddock full of “it’s just testing” coping mechanisms, we’re trying to separate real red flags from strategic sandbagging. We’ll talk about the early bad news stories, who looks genuinely comfortable with the new regulations, and who might already be scrambling behind the scenes. And yes… we have to address the elephant in the room: Are we staring down a George Russell championship season? Can anything be done to stop it? Should anything be done to stop it? And are we emotionally prepared for what that would mean? It’s testing overreactions, early-season paranoia, and the usual Fast Ones detours as we inch closer to lights out in 2026.

    Ep 132: 2026 F1 Season Kickoff: Liveries, Shakedown Buzz & Pre-Season Chaos

    A new season is here, the cars are finally out in the wild, and the Fast Ones are officially back for 2026. In our season-opening episode, we break down the latest livery reveals, react to early shakedown footage, and talk about which teams might already have an edge before a single real lap has been turned. We’ll read the tea leaves, wildly speculate, and absolutely overreact to things we’re pretending aren’t indicators — because that’s pre-season tradition. Of course, it wouldn’t be Fast Ones without detours. We’ll hit the gossip circuit (yes, that Lewis and Kim Kardashian chatter), catch up on paddock buzz, and set the tone for what we’re watching as this new regulation era gets underway. It’s casual, it’s chaotic, and it’s the start of another long season of losing focus together. Welcome to 2026. Let’s do this.

    Ep 131: 2025 F1 Season Awards & Full Recap (Yes, We’re Finally Doing It)

    Last week was supposed to be the season recap… and then Abu Dhabi happened. So this week, we’re doing it for real. We’re finally handing out the 2025 Fast Ones Awards — Driver of the Year, Rookie of the Year, and all the other totally serious categories that may or may not devolve into arguing. We’ll zoom out on the full season now that the dust has settled, talk about Lando Norris’s championship run, the three-way title fight that went all the way to the final race, and why this ended up being a fitting send-off for the current regulations. On top of that, we’ll catch up on the latest news from around the F1 world, revisit moments we somehow skipped over during race-by-race chaos, and inevitably lose focus along the way. If you were waiting for the actual season recap — this is the one. Same Fast Ones energy. Just… delayed gratification.
