    Waffley boring (Post Summer EP, Up to Speed)

    Soooo, it's been a busy couple of weeks and we (your hosts) have been caught up with work so we're only putting up this episode now... It's a tad old but we had good fun recording it and I think we covered some good ground so do give it a listen! Anyone who got their hopes up high after looking at the post-summer F1 calendar has to be feeling the disappointment after 2 sub-par race weekends. Following a quick summer shutdown, F1 returned to the land of the Belgian waffles, Belgium of course. But we shall not talk about the race that never happened...Instead lets jump over to the land of a different kind of waffles, the Stroopwafels. Now, this was a race weekend that we all thought was going to blow our minds away. It was the first time in a long time that F1 was returning to Netherlands and with home hero Max Verstappen being a proper title contender this season, the atmosphere was ...orange. No other words to describe it. The Dutch fans simply adore their home hero and it was an atmosphere on par with that at the 2019 Monza GP when the Tifosi celebrated Ferrrai's victory at home. The race however was far less exciting and some of us even had a snooze during the race. That was of course only until someone brought up the driver market rumours... Out now on all major streaming platforms!

    13 inch VS 18 inch tyres. Does size really matter? (Summer Showdown)

    "Power is nothing without control" ~ Pirelli. A pretty intense motto for a tyre manufacturer if you ask us...but it does show the crucial role that tyres play in motorsports and F1 is making one of their biggest changes to tyre regulations for the 2022 season. In a bid to increase the road relevance of F1 technology and improve the racing, wheel rims will be expanded from 13 inches to 18 inches, changing the fundamental structure of tyres. But what does this all mean for the drivers and for us, the fans? Well, join us as we explore the implications of the new tyre regulations?

    A weekend to remember - British GP (Talk of the town, EP2)

    The British GP has been one of the most eventful race weekends in recent times. We start with the elephant in the room - not the incident between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton but the chaos that ensued on social media. One of our partners, Rio got on our podcast to share his thoughts on the whole matter after having to put up posts urging his Instagram followers to stop the tirade of insensitive comments and messages.  Its not all gloom though as there were plenty of positive takeaways from the weekend as well. F1 unveiled their physical interpretation of the 2022 car and tried out a brand new sprint qualifying format for the race weekend. Tune in to hear our thoughts on all these and more.
