  • Lando’s ‘turning point’? Max’s future + Bortoleto’s breakthrough – 2025 Austrian GP Review

    Lando’s ‘turning point’? Max’s future + Bortoleto’s breakthrough – 2025 Austrian GP Review
    Jun 30 2025
    F1 correspondent and F1TV presenter Lawrence Barretto, and Brazilian journalist Julianne Cerasoli, join Tom Clarkson in the Spielberg paddock to discuss Lando Norris’s victory at the Austrian Grand Prix.

    How did Lando bounce back from Canada? What did we learn from his epic wheel-to-wheel battle with teammate and title rival Oscar Piastri? And is this a ‘turning point’ in their championship fight?

    George Russell and Mercedes Team Principal Toto Wolff reignited rumours that Max Verstappen could join the team with some interesting comments to the media over the weekend. How likely is that for 2026? What would Lawrence and Julianne do if they were advising Max in this situation?

    Ferrari had their best Sunday of the season with Charles Leclerc finishing P3 and Lewis Hamilton P4. With three podiums from the last four races, are they heading in the right direction? And after Lewis wanted to try a one-stop strategy, are the team ‘scared’ to make those calls?

    Also on the agenda: Julianne tells us why Gabriel Bortoleto’s first points in Formula 1 is such big news in Brazil, Racing Bulls Team Principal Laurent Mekies joins the pod to reflect on a ‘masterclass’ from Liam Lawson after his career-best P6, and do Red Bull need to re-evaluate their second seat again following another challenging weekend for Yuki Tsunoda?

    McLarens clash, Mercedes win + Ferrari under fire - 2025 Canadian GP Review with Lawrence Barretto + Davide Valsecchi
    Jun 16 2025
    F1 correspondent and F1TV Presenter, Lawrence Barretto, and 2012 GP2 champion, Davide Valsecchi join Tom Clarkson in the Montreal paddock to reflect on that dramatic collision between McLaren teammates Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri at the Canadian Grand Prix.

    What did Lando do wrong to cause the incident? How did Oscar’s clever defence lure Lando into making a mistake? And what does this mean for the championship battle?

    George Russell secured his and Mercedes’ first win of the season, while Kimi Antonelli scored his first podium in Formula 1 with P3. Is George ‘under-rated’? What makes him World Champion material? And what does reaching such a big milestone so early on in his F1 career say about Kimi’s talent and how Mercedes have nurtured him.

    Plus, Tom, Lawrence and Davide discuss the recent criticism of Ferrari from Italian media and what Team Principal Fred Vasseur’s reaction to it says about their situation.

  • Oscar v Lando to heat up? Why shouldn't Max be ruled out in Montreal? - 2025 Canadian GP Preview with Jolyon Palmer + Natalie Pinkham

    Oscar v Lando to heat up? Why shouldn't Max be ruled out in Montreal? - 2025 Canadian GP Preview with Jolyon Palmer + Natalie Pinkham
    Jun 9 2025
    Former Renault driver and F1TV commentator, Jolyon Palmer, and Sky Sports F1 presenter, Natalie Pinkham, join Tom Clarkson to discuss all the big talking points ahead of this weekend’s Canadian Grand Prix.

    Should Lando Norris be worried about the 10-point gap to championship leader Oscar Piastri? Will their rivalry start to heat up in the coming races? Jolyon explains where Oscar has the edge over Lando in qualifying and why that seemingly small lead in the standings is something the Australian can use to his advantage now.

    After causing a collision with George Russell at the Spanish Grand Prix, Max Verstappen is now just one penalty point away from an automatic race ban. Will the four-time World Champion change his approach in Montreal, or will he bounce back to secure what would be a fourth straight win at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve?

    Also on the agenda: why does Jolyon think Canada will be Mercedes’ best race of the year so far? Will Lewis Hamilton find ‘redemption’ at one of his most successful tracks? And should Williams be concerned after their failure to score points in Barcelona?

  • ‘Flawless’ Oscar, Max’s ‘frustration’ + incredible Hulk – 2025 Spanish GP Review with Jonathan Wheatley

    ‘Flawless’ Oscar, Max’s ‘frustration’ + incredible Hulk – 2025 Spanish GP Review with Jonathan Wheatley
    Jun 2 2025
    F1 journalists Jesús Balseiro and Julianne Cerasoli join Tom Clarkson in the Barcelona paddock to dissect a dramatic Spanish Grand Prix, where Oscar Piastri secured his fifth win of the season and Max Verstappen received a 10-second penalty for causing a collision with George Russell.

    Piastri is now 10 points clear of McLaren teammate Lando Norris at the top of the World Championship standings. Where did Oscar have the edge over Lando at the Circuit de Catalunya? How crucial was the start to the outcome of this race? And what does Lando need to do next to swing the momentum of this title race back in his favour?

    Tom, Jesús and Julianne share their thoughts on the late incident between Verstappen and Russell, which saw the Dutchman demoted from P5 to P10. Why did the collision happen? And what does this result mean for Max’s hopes of a record-equalling fifth title in a row?

    Sauber Team Principal Jonathan Wheatley joins the pod to reflect on Nico Hulkenberg’s incredible drive from P15 to P5, which secured the team’s best result since Imola 2022 and lifted them off the bottom of the Constructor Standings.

    Also on the agenda: a mixed weekend for Ferrari, Fernando Alonso’s first points of the season, Lance Stroll's withdrawal from the Grand Prix, and important points for both Racing Bulls and Alpine.

  • Red Bull 'level' with McLaren for a Barcelona battle? Spanish GP Preview with Albert Fabrega

    Red Bull 'level' with McLaren for a Barcelona battle? Spanish GP Preview with Albert Fabrega
    May 29 2025
    Lando Norris won Monaco, but Max Verstappen will be tough to beat in Spain. That's what ESPN's Albert Fabrega thinks. He tells Tom Clarkson how Red Bull have taken a step closer to McLaren.

    New rules on flexible front wings come into play in Barcelona. F1 tech expert Albert breaks down the rule change, the effect it will have on the cars and explains why he doesn't think it will change the outcome of the race.

    Tom and Albert discuss Lando's Monaco confidence, whether Oscar Piastri can return to his best after a more difficult weekend in Monte Carlo, how Spain is a possible 'turning point' for Mercedes, why Ferrari may struggle to match their Monaco speed and whether Williams can challenge the red cars again.

    May 26 2025
    Two-time Le Mans podium finisher and F1TV analyst, Alex Brundle, and Fox Sports Mexico journalist, Diego Mejia, join Tom Clarkson in the Monte Carlo paddock to discuss an eventful Monaco Grand Prix.

    Lando Norris secured his first victory and pole position since the opening race in Australia, moving him just three points behind teammate and championship leader Oscar Piastri. How did Lando produce such a special lap given his struggles in qualifying so far this year? What was different about his approach to the weekend? Why was Oscar unable to match him? And what does this mean for the title race?

    Racing Bulls Racing Director, Alan Permane, joins the pod to explain how the team nailed their strategy to secure a double points finish with Isack Hadjar and Liam Lawson.

    Plus, Tom, Alex and Diego talk about Charles Leclerc’s podium, why Ferrari were quicker than expected, the strategies that Mercedes and Williams opted for, and what they made of the mandatory two-stop rule.

    Esteban explains exactly what you need from the driver and car setup to execute a fast lap through the streets of Monte Carlo and why this track requires a completely different approach to any other.

    And Tom and Esteban share their excitement for F1: The Movie, after the drivers enjoyed an exclusive premiere of the film in Monaco.
