F1 Burnouts

Welcome to F1 Burnouts—the F1 podcast for fans who want more than just race recaps. Every episode, we dive deep into the engineering brilliance, the untold stories, and the strategic chess matches that make Formula 1 the pinnacle of motorsport. Whether it's breaking down how a floor edge vortex works, exploring the history behind iconic rivalries, or dissecting the latest regulation changes, we bring you the full picture. Your host is an engineering enthusiast and F1 historian with an unashamed love for McLaren (papaya forever), but with a commitment to objectivity that means no team escapes honest analysis—not even the orange ones. Expect passion, expect sarcasm, expect the occasional engineering tangent that goes way too deep. We care about what F1 can be: a sport that pushes technology forward, champions sustainability, and opens doors for everyone. From celebrating the women shaping the sport's future to holding teams accountable when they fall short, F1 Burnouts is commentary with a conscience. New episodes weekly. No swearing—just pure, unfiltered F1 obsession that the whole family can enjoy. Keep the rubber on the track.
