Fast becoming my favourite F1 podcast

Okay so it’s not perfect and yes Billy you drive me up the wall with the amount of times you say “mate”! But it is a really good interesting listen, I think both of them talk very well and confidently about the subject (F1) and both of you bring an awful lot of knowledge to the conversation.

I’m enjoying this a lot, and I particularly like the episodes which you in call “Team Radio” the only negative I have is whenever I think of Billy and Johnny it just makes me think of, Hale

An F1 Podcast with Racers’ Perspective

Many F1 pods are hosted by journalists or fans, but this one has two racers giving their thoughts on the F1 season, driving, the cars and teams. It’s excellent!! The way they discuss everything from a driver’s point of view makes it a whole different type of F1 podcast. (The discussion of Fernando’s overtake of Lewis in Bahrain is worth its weight in gold.) And they’re doing fan Q&A so that’s great, too!

Keep the episodes coming, it’s FANTASTIC!
