Customer Reviews
(Harry Benjamin and Jack Aitke) on qualifying for the Saudi Arabian GP is what this show should be
I listen to this podcast regularly. Last year I got increasingly irritated as so much time was spent discussing why Max Verstappen and Red Bull are so dominant. The rest of the drivers and teams were often reduced to a few minutes in a show. However, that’s where the action happened in 2023. This last episode on the qualifying to the Saudi Arabia, Grand Prix 2024 gives me hope. A well rounded discussion covering the most noteworthy aspects. Please continue like that.
Good pod
Listen, I do like F1 I’m not paying sky money to watch. I just want the episodes sooner. It’s hard when you see the results and then the following day you get the story
Brilliant podcast and insight
I listen to this podcast before, during and after every race weekend! Fantastic insights and great fun between the presenters. All the guest presenters are great too. Ignore some of the negative reviews - they say more about the reviewers opinion on F1, than what is a very good quality pod! Great listen!
