Once again it’s victory for Verstappen and heartbreak for Hamilton at the Yas Marina Circuit, as the Fast & Loose team brings you all the action from the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2022. 




With the season all but wrapped up ahead of Sunday, headlines largely focused on an event outside the race, as the sport bid farewell to F1 legend Sebastian Vettel, who took part in his last race in an F1 car ahead of his retirement. That being said, the race itself did not disappoint and delivered many twists and turns as events unfolded. Charles Leclerc sealed 2nd place in the Grand Prix, drivers and constructors championships for Ferrari, with what he described as a “perfect” strategy from his team. Lewis Hamilton looked to be having a decent race before a hydraulic issue struck on the penultimate lap, resulting in Mercedes' first mechanical failure of the year. Unfortunately this sealed the inevitable, with Hamilton failing to win a race in a season for the first time in his 22-year career.




Throughout the podcast, F1 fans Will Arnett and Michelle Beadle give their hot takes from the weekend and F1 legend Mika gives his analysis and answers your ‘F101’ questions. 




We’d like to thank all of our Fast & Loose listeners for getting on board for the ride this season! We’ll be back next week with a 2022 review bonus podcast with Scott Mitchell-Malm from The Race.

The Interlagos Circuit never disappoints! The Formula 1 Heineken São Paulo Grand Prix once again delivered a thrilling race from start to finish.

It had it all... a 1st lap crash cruelly ended K-Mag's weekend early, after his surprise pole position going into the sprint race. The early drama set the tone... we had in-fighting at Red Bull, a valiant comeback from Charles Leclerc, and a 'driver of the day' performance from Lewis Hamilton. However, the main story was Mercedes' George Russell, claiming his first GP victory in style! Thoroughly deserved and long-overdue, congratulations George!

Throughout the podcast, F1 fans Will Arnett and Michelle Beadle give their hot takes from the weekend. The team are joined once again by Edd Straw from 'The Race', and F1 legend Mika gives his analysis and answers your ‘F101’ questions.

It wasn't a classic, but Mexico City was in full party mode for the third-to-last grand prix of the season. We were there to witness Max Verstappen make history, as he became the first driver EVER to win 14 grand prixs in a single season.




The home crowd was desperate for a Sergio 'Checo' Perez win, but the Mexican had to settle for a third place finish. Daniel Ricciardo produced one of his best drives of the season, Ferrari ran a race of their own, and Mercedes had a race littered with technical glitches.




Join Will Arnett, Mika Häkkinen, Michelle Beadle, Edd Straw and producer Sammy James as they cover all the action from the Formula 1 Mexico City Grand Prix and take your calls.

What a race! Following the sad news of the death of former Red Bull owner Dietrich Mateschitz, Max Verstappen set a Formula 1 record previously set by two of the sport's GOATs (Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel) of 13 race wins in a single season - clinching the first Constructors Championship for Red Bull since 2013.




COTA delivered a race that had twists, turns, and crashes right from the very beginning. Carlos Sainz spun out from pole position going into turn 1 after colliding with George Russell, Sebastian Vettel led the race for a large section before a terrible pitstop saw his race slip away, and we finally got the Hamilton vs. Verstappen battle we have been waiting for all season!




Join Will Arnett, Mika Häkkinen, Michelle Beadle, and producer Sammy James as they cover all the action from the Formula 1 Aramco United States Grand Prix, take your calls, and pay tribute to Dietrich Mateschitz.
