    Post-Race from The Abu Dhabi GP

    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.

    Post-Race from The Japanese GP

    Just when you think this sport couldn’t get any more dramatic…  Utter chaos from a rain-drenched Suzuka Circuit as Max Verstappen is crowned back-to-back Formula 1 World Champion! While the dutchman's Championship is thoroughly well-deserved after a consistently brilliant season, few could have predicted the circumstances in which he would be crowned champion. Verstappen claimed his twelfth win of the season at the Formula 1 Honda Japanese Grand Prix with ease, after a lengthy red-flag due to poor conditions ate into race-time. Red Bull’s main man needed to outscore Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc by eight points and teammate Sergio Perez by six at Suzuka. Leclerc crossed the line second, but a late penalty against him was reported to seal the title for Verstappen. HOWEVER, confusion spread throughout the paddock as it was initially believed full points would not be awarded, as only 29 laps were completed of the planned 53-lap race. However, full points were awarded, and that coupled with the five-second penalty for Leclerc, handed Verstappen the title. Max now joins a pantheon of greats (including our very own Mika Häkkinen) to have claimed back-to-back F1 Championships. Join Will Arnett, Mika Häkkinen, Michelle Beadle, and producer Sammy James as they cover all the action from the Formula 1 Honda Japanese Grand Prix. In addition to the Championship’s climax, the team reacts to all the main talking points from the race. They discuss the controversial tractor incident involving Pierre Gasly. Throughout the podcast, F1 fans Will and Michelle give their hot takes from the weekend. F1 legend Mika gives his analysis and answers your ‘F101’ questions, and we hear from newly crowned 2-time World Champion Max Verstappen after the race.  Download AMP from the App Store and follow @amppresentsf1 to listen and call in LIVE immediately following every race.
