The Fools head stateside for the United States Grand Prix — and while the racing might’ve been flatter than Texas itself, Max Verstappen reminded everyone why he’s still the benchmark. David calls him “a guru” after another flawless weekend, but is the title race already over? Skin’s got questions about wide corners, double apexes, while David’s losing patience with cautious strategies and championship slip-ups from McLaren.
Plus: who’s the real fool this weekend — Oscar Piastri for his slump, or Yuki Tsunoda for that wild move on Ollie Bearman?
Fast takes, foolish debates, and Max dominance. It’s the Formula Fools US GP review.

Tension is brewing in Papaya Land. After the Singapore GP, Lando’s aggressive move on Oscar had fans fuming and McLaren’s “no-contact” rule in tatters. David thinks Norris showed champion material — Skin’s not so sure. We break down the incident, the fallout, and why McLaren’s team management might just cost them Oscar in the long run. Plus, Skin’s hot takes on Mercedes’ redemption, Red Bull’s random meltdown, and why Lance and Fernando deserve their own buddy comedy.
It’s drama, controversy, and papaya-flavoured chaos — welcome to the Singapore GP edition of Formula Fools.

The streets of Azerbaijan turned into a game of “who can keep it out of the wall?” and Carlos Sainz showed everyone how it’s done. In this week’s Formula Fools, David and Skin break down Sainz’s podium heroics in the Williams, a Racing Bulls double points haul, and a McLaren weekend to forget — yes, Oscar, we’re looking at you.
Skin’s hot takes dive into the wild qualifying session, why wind suddenly became F1’s biggest enemy, and whether Oscar’s rough weekend says more about pressure or perspective. Plus, Driver of the Day, Biggest Letdown, and a chat on why Mercedes quietly pulled off one of their best weekends of the season.
It’s gurus, fools, and everything in between — Azerbaijan style.

The ground-effect era is on its last lap, and Formula 1 is about to hit the reset button. In 2026, the sport is getting smaller, lighter cars, radical new active aerodynamics, and power units that are 50% battery, 50% engine. Oh, and don’t forget sustainable fuel, an overtaking boost button, and some safety upgrades that could change how crashes are handled.
In this episode, the Fools break down the biggest rule shake-up since 2014 — from scrapping DRS for X-Mode and Z-Mode, to the insane jump in electric power, to whether 30% less downforce really means better racing. Will this revolution bring wheel-to-wheel action back to classic tracks like Monaco, or just give drivers even more buttons to press?

The Italian Grand Prix gave us drama from the start to the finish, with McLaren’s call to swap Lando and Oscar stealing the spotlight. Was the team protecting their star, or just undoing a botched pit stop? We dive into why Piastri looked so aggressive, why everyone thinks turn 1 is the place to send it, and how Max somehow went from giving up places to cruising to a huge victory.
Plus, we ask the real questions: Did Sainz dodge a penalty he should’ve had? What on earth does a suspension failure mean for Alonso (and why did it have to be him)? And why is Lawson once again taking “no prisoners” a bit too literally with Tsunoda?
Strap in as we break down the chaos, the strategy, and the very questionable decisions from Monza.

It was a Hungarian Grand Prix full of head-scratchers and hot takes — from Leclerc’s shock pole to his mysterious chassis collapse, to McLaren’s strategy masterclass (or was it sabotage?) that left Oscar fans fuming.
David breaks down how Ferrari managed to undo a front-row start, Hamilton’s bizarre post-quali comments, and whether Red Bull are in real trouble. Meanwhile, Skin’s asking all the big questions: was Oscar stitched up? Did Norris just wing it? And what even is a chassis problem?
Plus, surprise pace from Alonso and Bortoleto, Williams disappearing entirely, and Max Verstappen gets called out in the Fool segment.

Buckle up for a drenched and dramatic Belgian Grand Prix as David breaks down a wet and wild weekend at Spa — where Lewis Hamilton rose from the pit lane to deliver a race-day clinic. Oscar Piastri nailed his restart, Alex Albon turned defence into an art form, and Ferrari somehow got a strategy right (yes, really).
Meanwhile, Lando Norris had another weekend to forget, with costly errors and coaching overload casting doubt on his title credentials. Skin asks all the right questions — from rolling starts to battery clipping to why tire degradation sounds like falling off a cliff. Plus, we hand out Guru of the Week and crown this round’s Formula Fool.
It’s slippery, it’s savage, and it’s Spa. Let’s get foolish.

The Japanese Grand Prix delivered a masterclass from Max Verstappen — a god-tier quali lap, flawless tire management, and cool under pit pressure. But while Max soared, McLaren… well, napped. David vents about missed opportunities for Lando and Oscar, while Skin tries to figure out why everyone’s so hot for Max’s lap and what the hell an “upshift issue” even is. We cover spicy radio rants and whether smaller cars and softer tires could actually fix the sport.
