    Race Review | 2026 Azerbaijan Grand Prix | 201 | Not a Seat, Not a Date, Not Even Baku: Who Gets to Stay in Formula 1?

    George Russell held off Max Verstappen all the way to the flag at the 2026 Azerbaijan Grand Prix. One mistake took out both Alpines and reigning world champion Lando Norris, and left a question hanging over the driver who made it. With Dick out for this one, Sabrina and Joe Saward spend this race review on the question underneath it all: in Formula 1, who actually gets to keep their place? Racing Bulls has three drivers and two seats. Haas is reshaping its lineup. And Christian Horner's name keeps surfacing at Ferrari, at a moment Joe finds very convenient. The calendar is facing the same question. With Qatar and Saudi Arabia still unresolved, where does this season actually end, and why does one Italian circuit keep coming up? Baku has its own plan for holding on: a permanent track on an island that doesn't exist yet. Seats, dates, circuits. In Formula 1, nothing keeps its place for free.

    Interview | Dick and Sabrina by Joe Saward | 200 | What Actually Makes Someone Worth Trusting About Formula 1?

    For nearly a year, Joe Saward has been the one answering the questions on this show. In this episode, the format flips. Joe has covered close to seven hundred Formula 1 races over almost four decades, independent of any team or media company. Dick and Sabrina have a fraction of that experience between them. So Joe used this conversation to ask them directly why that gap matters less than people assume. In this episode, Joe turns his credibility around and spends the whole conversation asking Dick and Sabrina to justify theirs. What he actually wanted to know, and what he thought of the answer, is not something either of them saw coming. Sabrina traces her path in from a legal, political, and business background, and from being exactly the kind of newer fan this show was built to speak to. Dick goes back to being a nine-year-old watching a jet-powered car at the 1967 Indy 500, and a Formula Ford career that ended when his talent and his money ran out at the same time. Somewhere in the middle of both stories, the conversation turns to something none of them planned to spend this much time on: what actually separates a source worth trusting from the flood of Formula 1 content that just makes things up for clicks. Joe has a four decade answer. Dick and Sabrina are still building theirs, in real time, on this show. If you've ever wondered how this particular trio ended up in your feed, or what gives any of them the standing to talk about this sport, this is the conversation that answers it on their own terms.

    F1 General | 2026 Rebroadcast | How to Convince Your Friends to Become F1 Fans | 199 | Can You Actually Argue Someone Into Becoming an F1 Fan?

    This is a rebroadcast from the earliest days of 2 Guys, A Girl, and F1. We've cleaned up the audio as best we could, but as independent creators, we were still learning as we went, and it shows a little. What doesn't show its age: the argument. Sabrina goes solo for this one, building a genuine legal-style case for why Formula 1 is worth watching, aimed squarely at the skeptics in your life. She works through the sport as chess rather than checkers, its geopolitical weight, the business-school case study hiding inside a hundred-thirty-five-million-dollar cost cap, the American underdog story still being written, the engineering that trickles down into the car in your driveway, and the human stories that hold all of it together. It's structured, it's persuasive, and it's built to be forwarded directly to that one friend who still thinks it's just cars turning left. Whether the verdict landed is something you'll have to hear for yourself. Send us Fan Mail Support the show Have episode feedback or ideas?

    F1 General | 2026 Rebroadcast | F1 101 | 198 | These Cars Generate So Much Downforce, They Could Theoretically Drive Upside Down

    This is a rebroadcast from the earliest days of 2 Guys, A Girl, and F1. We've cleaned up the audio as best we could, but as independent creators, we were still learning as we went, and it shows a little. What doesn't show its age: the fundamentals, even if a few of the driver names have moved on since. Consider this the syllabus. John and Dick take Sabrina, question by question, through everything a new fan actually needs to know: why it's called a "formula" at all, how a driver climbs from karting to F1, what's actually inside the car (the tub, the power unit, the aero), what every flag on track means, how points and prize money work, and why the cost cap exists in the first place. Recorded in the show's earliest days, some of the specific driver and team details reflect that season rather than today's grid, but the fundamentals haven't changed, and neither has the goal: making a genuinely complicated sport approachable without dumbing it down. If you've ever nodded along during a broadcast without actually knowing what half the terms meant, this is the episode that fixes that.

    Race Review | 2026 Spanish Grand Prix | 197 | Formula 1 Tried to Build a New Monaco in Madrid. Was Anyone Actually Convinced?

    A brand-new Formula One circuit opened in Madrid this year, engineered, by more than one account, to evoke Monaco. Kimi Antonelli won the inaugural Spanish Grand Prix and called the result a little lucky himself. Lando Norris led much of the race before a virtual safety car, thrown four seconds after he had already committed past the pit entry, erased his advantage. The FIA later issued an explanation for the call. Joe Saward has a read on why that explanation existed at all. Dick, Joe, and Sabrina spend this episode picking apart what a new circuit actually needs to succeed on the Formula 1 calendar, and whether Madrid has it. They also get into two stories developing off the track that could matter more than Sunday's result: a mystery American buyer closing in on a quarter of Alpine, and a five-driver decision at Haas that will say a lot about what Gene Haas actually wants his team to become. And after Fernando Alonso and Max Verstappen both grew louder about the 2026 cars the same week the FIA president made comments about Aston Martin's engine partner, Dick and Joe land in very different places on what, if anything, is actually going on.

    Interview | 2026 Rebroadcast | Sabrina's F1 Origin Story | 196 | She's Never Been to a Race, Never Driven a Track Day, and Somehow Ended Up Co-Hosting an F1 Podcast. How?

    This is a rebroadcast from the earliest days of 2 Guys, A Girl, and F1. We've cleaned up the audio as best we could, but as independent creators, we were still learning as we went, and it shows a little. What doesn't show its age: the friendship, or the questions. Sabrina's best friend Rachel, and John's daughter, hosts this one, asking the questions Sabrina usually asks everyone else. They trace how a decade of friendship slowly turned into genuine obsession: what actually pulled her in (hint: it's not what people assume), why she's fiercely loyal to a driver for reasons that have nothing to do with his looks, and what she still hasn't done despite years of fandom that might surprise you. They also get into her theory that Formula One could do for the world what the Olympics only manage every four years, and whether that theory holds up. If you've ever wondered how someone goes from "who's that?" to setting an alarm for 3 a.m. free practice, this is the conversation that explains it.

    Race Review | 2026 Italian Grand Prix | 195 | The First Italian to Win at Monza in Sixty Years, and He Wasn't Driving a Ferrari

    Kimi Antonelli started nineteenth. He finished first. At Monza, in front of a crowd that has waited sixty years to see an Italian win their home Grand Prix, he did it in Mercedes silver. Dick, Joe Saward, and Sabrina spend nearly as much time on that moment as they do on the race itself, and on a detail buried underneath it: the person most responsible for developing Kimi into this driver just left Mercedes for Red Bull. Behind Kimi, Ferrari fell apart. A collision between teammates. A crash that could have been far worse than it was. A question none of the three of them can fully answer: how is Mercedes still winning at the one track built to reward pure horsepower, under a rule the FIA wrote specifically to encourage hybrid technology.

    Interview | 2026 Rebroadcast | Dick's F1 Origin Story | 194 | He Ran Out of Talent and Money at the Same Time. Thirty Years Later, He Went Back Anyway.

    This is a rebroadcast from the earliest days of 2 Guys, A Girl, and F1. We've cleaned up the audio as best we could, but as independent creators, we were still learning as we went, and it shows a little. What doesn't show its age: the story itself, or the shifter kart Dick's still racing today. Dick's Formula 1 obsession started the same way John's did: reading Rob Walker's race reports in Road & Track as a kid, with almost no way to actually watch the sport live. In this conversation, he traces the throughline from that ten-year-old self all the way to the shifter kart he races today. Along the way: the 1980 US Grand Prix at Long Beach, where he stood within ten feet of two lifelong friends and only recognized one of them; a Formula Ford career that ended when talent and money ran out simultaneously; and what actually happened decades later when he decided to go back and finish something he'd left unfinished. He also talks about why he thinks Formula One has gotten more polished and less romantic at the same time, and what's been lost along the way. Consider this the setup for a part two he's already promised. Send us Fan Mail Support the show Have episode feedback or ideas?
