Welcome to Inside the Piranha Club, a new podcast brought to you by Rebecca Clancy and Ben Hunt; two F1 journalists with a combined 19 years in the sport, who will take you behind the scenes of the dizzying spectacle that is Formula 1.
We will be at the races. And without shareholders or bosses to keep happy, we won't be afraid to tell you exactly how it is or give you our views. This is not F1 from our bedrooms, this is straight talking from the track. It will be frenzied, snappy and will bite. This is Inside the Piranha Club.

Customer Reviews
Embarrassing
For two people so on the inside they prove that there is no journalism in F1 - two grossly misinformed and sycophantic talking heads only in it for access. Really disappointing.
They started a podcast and quit on the fans
They only want a podcast if Sir Lewis is relevant. British homers when the podcast aired originally I had great hope but they stopped because their guy wasn’t winning. And now Autosport will continue on it’s British biased death spiral. Bec is a perfect example of the Peter principle What a joke
Hidden Gem
Great start to the podcast. Easy to listen to, factually based with unapologetic analysis. Rebecca did a great job with the BBC team during free practice (Saudi GP) and Ben provides real insight to paddock news (he actually travels to the races).
With the F1 fanbase growth, tik tok stars are polluting the well with so-called F1 “pundits” but this crew is the real deal.
Quality work, keep it up.
