Strap in and crack open a lukewarm can of supermarket own-brand cola, because The Monkey Seat is back — just in time for the British Grand Prix!

Tom and Karl return to their mics (and questionable opinions) after accidentally ghosting the Austrian Grand Prix. Was it scheduling? Was it laziness? Was it because Karl got lost in a multi-storey car park? We may never know. But they’re back now, and ready to pretend they never left.

In this episode, the lads dive into all the Silverstone shenanigans — home heroes, hydraulic heartbreaks, and more Union Jacks than a Coronation street party. They hand out their now-famous Driver of the Day awards (no one agrees, as usual), and crown the ultimate Dick of the Day – a prestigious honour for the biggest muppet on the grid. Or possibly in the commentary box.

It’s banter over breakdowns, nonsense over nuance, and the kind of chaotic race recap that makes Sky F1’s coverage look like a TED Talk. Live reactions, fan interactions, and more detours than a British road trip – if it’s serious F1 you’re after, Grid Talk exists. If you want vibes and very little journalistic integrity, you’ve found the right pit lane.
