Still Listening
I’m one of the last persons to get into f1 before Drive to Survive. Started watching the sport in 2017. This was the first f1 podcast I found in 2017 and I’m still listening.
My favorite F1 podcast
Love the down to earth, casual, friendly and fun nature of this podcast. You get unique depth of insight from long time F1 enthusiasts and race driver / team manager, with opinions and perspectives you don’t get elsewhere.. plus none of the pretentious European/British vibes of 99% of all other F1 media out there... love how you keep things objective and unbiased - there’s a world of difference on how these guys talk about Perez for example.. while European media always has that little drop of prejudice that’s just hard to swallow for a South American that grew up watching Senna, Barrichello, Massa, etc… Keep up the great work!
Fun show!
Todd and Grace have great chemistry. They do a great job of discussing F1 news and topics, with a good mix of technical talk and humor, and even some MotoGP talk mixed in.
Great show!
