Just like how Sonny Hayes revived his dormant career, I revived my dormant individual podcast with this episode where I talk about "F1 the movie" the latest Hollywood blockbuster from Joseph Kosinski and team with my friend Anirudh Venkat (@homie4life99) a veteran F1 enthusiast. Coinciding with the 75th year of F1 tournament, in this episode we discuss our insights about the film, the making of F1 film, the real F1 tournament, the physics, engineering, connection between 'Thala' (sorry AK) Ajith Kumar's racing team and F1, numbers game, the current 2025 season of F1 and its (somewhat controversial) future. This is intended to be an in-depth dive on the world of wheels and adrenaline. Preferable to listen to this episode after watching the film 'F1 the movie'.
