Why has one of F1's most controversial figures returned to Alpine?
In the run-up to the Spanish Grand Prix, Alpine confirmed it had hired former Benetton and Renault Formula 1 team boss Flavio Briatore as an executive advisor. Briatore ran the Enstone team for two spells under different guises, leading them to several titles along the way, but he exited amid scandal following the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix race-fixing incident. So why is he back now? And what does it mean for Alpine in the long- and short-term? Answering those questions are Edd Straw, Scott Mitchell-Malm and 'Team Enstone' specialist Damien Smith, author of the recent book 'Benetton: Rebels of Formula 1'.

Why Spain is an acid test for Red Bull and F1
Is performance converging at the front of the F1 field or have Red Bull just had some circuit-specific struggles of late that have given its rivals the chance of victory? That's the big question heading into the Spanish Grand Prix at Barcelona, a track where Red Bull would typically be expected to dominate and where Max Verstappen has won two years in a row. Edd Straw and guests Mark Hughes and Diego Mejia (from The Race en Español and Fox Sports Mexico) look at that topic, plus whether Sergio Perez can get back on track after his recent dip in form, and what a change to the superlicence rules could mean for Mercedes starlet Kimi Antonelli.
