The team are back to break down the Mexican Grand Prix, where Lando Norris has stormed into the championship lead — by just one point over Oscar Piastri with four races to go! But was the championship shaped by yet another farcical blunder from the stewards? We dive deep into the controversial last-lap Virtual Safety Car that may have sabotaged both Oscar and Max Verstappen’s title chances, and question how the FIA keep getting it so wrong. From the baffling VSC call to marshals narrowly avoi...
The whole crew are back to break down Max Verstappen’s dominant US Grand Prix Sprint weekend in Texas! We dive into Max’s championship charge and how McLaren’s struggles in Austin have opened the door for a late-season twist — including our updated percentage odds relative to a unicorn, on Max’s title chances. We also unpack the “repercussions” at McLaren following last race’s collision and admit we might finally be reaching our breaking point with the Papaya team. Elsewhere, we break down th...
With just six races to go James, Nathan, and Jacqui are back to unpack a headline-filled stretch dominated by McLaren drama! From the Oscar Piastri and Ferrari rumours to the ongoing legal mess with Alex Palou, we’ve got it all covered. Did Zak Brown really promise Palou an F1 seat, or was he simply not quick enough? And what should we make of the whispers about Piastri and Charles Leclerc swapping teams — could there be any truth to it? With McLaren wrapping up the Constructors’ Championship...
Jacqui joins the crew permanently as all four team members break down a dramatic Singapore Grand Prix! James celebrates George Russell’s big victory, but the spotlight is firmly on the controversy at McLaren as both drivers edge closer to the championship fight. With Lando barging past Oscar on lap one, is there a pattern emerging against the Australian? Will we see a rethink of the so-called “Papaya rules of racing”? We dive into Oscar’s mindset, debate whether Norris is getting preferential...
With Nathan out, Taylor and James are back to preview the Singapore Grand Prix! The boys go long on Max Verstappen’s championship chances before diving into the “Papaya rules” drama and the controversy around McLaren’s possible team favouritism. Do they secretly want Lando to take the crown? Australians are prickly about playing favourites, and Taylor asks the question 'what happens if a position swap ends up costing Oscar his shot at the title?' They also react to the news that Lewis Hamilto...
Jacqui joins Nathan & Nathan (aka the worst potential shampoo brand of all time) to break down a potentially championship-altering Azerbaijan Grand Prix! With Max Verstappen securing yet another Grand Slam, is he suddenly a sneaky long shot to snatch the title? We dive into Oscar Piastri’s nightmare weekend in Baku — from his qualifying crash to jumping the start, stalling, and crashing all on lap one. Is this evidence of cracks under pressure, or just a race to forget? The crew debates w...
The boys are back (sort of) to recap a controversial — if slightly dull — Italian Grand Prix from the home of the Tifosi! With travel chaos striking again, Nathan calls in friend of the pod Jacqui to join James’ Hawaiian audio snippets for a full Monza breakdown. We kick things off with a Mark Webber mention inside the first minute before moving on to his protégé, Oscar Piastri, and the dubious team orders from McLaren. We dissect why this call either pleased or infuriated us, and what it mea...
Please excuse the dip in audio quality this week — travel got in the way! The boys are back to break down all the drama from the Dutch Grand Prix, headlined by Oscar Piastri’s monumental achievement in drawing level with Mark Webber’s career win tally — and doing it with his first ever grand slam! We dive into Lando’s rotten luck, Ferrari’s brutal double retirement, and debate whether the Dutch GP really delivered as a spectacle. Did Carlos Sainz truly deserve his penalty? And why on earth di...
The boys are back with Part 2 of our F1 mid-season break listener questions! This time we tackle the big ones: will Adrian Newey work his magic again at Aston Martin? Who are our picks for the big risers and fallers of 2026? We debate who will drive for Cadillac — and who we’d want behind the wheel — plus ask if Williams can ever win a race again. We also get into the circuits: which tracks we’re desperate to visit, which we’d happily never see again, and the ones we’d love to return to. And ...
The boys are back during the F1 mid-season break to tackle your burning questions! We dive into the big topics you’ve sent in — from our top five drivers we’ve ever seen, to why George Russell keeps getting told to “pee off,” to whether Red Bull can actually make a success of their own engines. We debate if Cadillac can truly compete in 2026, decide which track should be “disappeared” by America’s ICE agents, and ponder whether F1 will ever return to Africa. To wrap things up, we heap praise ...
Following a tense and drama-filled Hungarian Grand Prix, the boys are back to break down all the action! What exactly went wrong for Charles Leclerc, who looked set for a standout weekend — until it all unraveled? We ask whether this was Lando Norris’ greatest victory yet, and dive into the mindset of Lewis Hamilton after his brutal qualifying comments where he called himself “useless.” Will the GOAT keep racing in 2026? Elsewhere, we take serious issue with Leclerc’s dangerous late-race defe...
Taylor rejoins James and Nathan to dive into all the chaos, controversy, and confusion from the Belgian Grand Prix! The boys kick things off by ripping into the FIA for the rain delay — has safety gone too far, or are we denying fans the thrill of real racing by overcautious calls? We debate whether Spa delivered a thriller or a snoozer and get into a heated discussion about the form of Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton. With Oscar Piastri taking the win and stretching his title lead, we unpa...
James and Nathan are back to break down one of the most shocking moves in recent F1 history — the sacking of Christian Horner. We dive deep into why Red Bull made the move after 21 years, and whether the Verstappen camp played a role. Has this decision strengthened or weakened their chances of keeping Max long-term? We take a look back at Horner’s incredible journey, from inheriting the ashes of Jaguar to building Red Bull into an eight-time Drivers’ Championship-winning powerhouse. We reflec...
James and Nathan are back to recap a sensational British Grand Prix — and it’s all about The Hulk! Nico Hülkenberg finally ends his podium drought with a masterclass in the wet, and we take a moment (or several) to revel in one of the most popular rostrum finishes in years. From there, we dive headfirst into the drama at Silverstone: the McLaren duel for the lead, Oscar Piastri’s controversial penalty, and Taylor’s big question — was it too harsh? Should McLaren have used team orders to fix t...
Nathan and James are back — swanning around like assholes — with a bonus episode dedicated to the long-awaited F1 Movie starring Brad Pitt! In this off-track special, the boys break down everything from the film’s jaw-dropping on-track action to the moments that took them right out of the experience. Did the movie live up to the hype? What did it absolutely nail about the world of Formula 1? And which over-the-top hot lap had us laughing in disbelief? We talk attention to detail, mid-filmroma...
All three of the boys are back in action to break down a chaotic and dramatic Austrian Grand Prix! We dive deep into the epic on-track battle between the championship leading McLaren teammates — who really came out on top, and what does it mean moving forward? Is Nathan finally on the Oscar bandwagon? We unpack Kimi Antonelli’s rookie mistake that ended Max Verstappen’s jaw-dropping 31-race points streak, and take a closer look at Franco Colapinto’s near-miss with Piastri as Alpines woes cont...
Nathan and James are back to talk all things F1 ahead of the Austrian Grand Prix — but first, it’s fashion time. The boys break down the red carpet chaos from the F1 movie premiere in New York, asking the hard-hitting question: do any of these multi-millionaires own a mirror? Or have access to a tailor? From there, it’s back to the track as they unpack Jacques Villeneuve’s bizarre take on the Piastri-Norris crash, and Nathan wonders aloud why Oscar Piastri’s season hasn’t lit the same fire as...
The boys are back to break down a weird Canadian Grand Prix! We kick things off by asking the question on everyone's mind — was it actually a good race? James can't stop raving about George Russell’s return to form in a dominant weekend, while the gang gives massive props to 18-year-old sensation Kimi Antonelli for grabbing his first ever F1 podium. On the other end of the spectrum, we celebrate Nico Hülkenberg’s heroics while lamenting his infamous 5,574-day podium drought. We dive into the ...
McLaren dominates with a 1-2 finish in Spain, but the biggest story is the collision that rocked the 2025 season — Max Verstappen vs. George Russell. As Oscar Piastri extends his narrow championship lead, all eyes turn to the most controversial moment of the year. Did Max ram George on purpose? Should it have been a black flag? And what does this mean heading into Canada? The boys break down the chaotic seconds that led to Max’s outburst and compare it to the sport’s most infamous meltdowns....
