Beyond The Racing Line - Formula 1 Podcast

Fan Frenzy is the Pod where fan take control of the conversation. 

Lap 67 was the moment the McLaren boys came together. Stay calm though because it's not as nasty as it seems.  Hulk is back for another handful of points, whatever they have put on that Sauber is working, the question now is.... what is it?  Norris put his hand up and took full responsibility, is this the new age racer attitude or a well-managed team. And it's the premier of the F1 movie this week, are you as excited as we are? This could be one for the ages.  All the plus much much more on this week's episode of Beyond the Racing Line.

TIME EXTENSION Oscar takes another win, the 3rd driver in McLaren history to have a streak of 8 successive podiums. Steak have had a blinder, Bortoleto just missing Q3, but Hulkenberg was the man of the match. Is this the first sign of a transition to Audi? Alonso in the points, Stroll hit the wall, literally. It's party time at Aston. Here's hoping for more points. And the driver seat swapper has not delivered this week. A few questions to now ask, is Yuki up to it? Has Colapinto added anything more than Doohan? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

FRANS HERMANN HAS ARRIVED....The double hat trick was not to be for Aussie Oscar, Monaco may be the pivotal moment for the season. What about Williams, are they now ahead of Ferrari in the packing order? The Alpine saga has taken a sour turn, fake news and attacks on Jack, is this well over the line and do fans need to take a step back? Ferrari are an enigma, what are you doing with the boys in red? Backing them, holding hope or have you put a line through the season?? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

Gap week has got the boys thinking creativity, so this week we are throwing out a Fan Frenzy Party ep, lots of Fan Frenzy goodies and your favourite podcasters casually chatting F1. Fill your RDO with a light hearted mini ep.

A HATTRICK LIKE NO OTHER.....The Aussie is on the charge and he is white hot. Put your money where your mouth is....does he win the title or not? Another Williams double points and the Grove outfit is looking the goods, will the trend continue or is this a 2025 flash in the pan. It's all falling apart a Ferrari, strategy, radio, messy track calls, it's round 6 but is the line already through the scarlette crew? And a driver parade like no other, drivers having a laugh, giant lego chassis, is it time to ditch the truck and trailer for something more engaging? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

THE TRIPLE HEADER IS OVER.....A slow build by Piastri has seen him lead the title race for the first time, but don't discount Max, this title is a 3 horse race at worst. Williams have turned a corner. The pre season hype has come to fruition and a double points. The sky is the limit in 2025.  Lewis is losing it. And with Williams pushing the envelope, Fred would be scratching his head and this point. 2 years on a contract......never say never. And for the first time since Japan 2010 an Australian leads the title race, simply put, can he win it all? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

AUSSIE, AUSSIE, AUSSIE.....Forget the Lando era, the Piastri party is just getting started. Have Ferrari turned a corner? Leclerc looked solid, but more woes for Hamilton, how long before we see a turn of fortune or will it be an early packup for 2026? Gasly and Alpine have awoken, Doohan showed his potential and it looks a repeat of last year, how far up the grid will they end? And Haas have bounced back, looking to be best of the rest with a settled Ocon and a hungry Bearman. All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

MAXIMUM ATTACK....Oh boy, don't ever count out the Dutch Lion. Sometimes the driver makes the difference and this week was the case. Another tough outing for Doohan, with rumours of a 5 round contract only, could there the early sun set rumours be fake news? Yuki stepped in for his first ride in the Redbull, how would you rate his opening run? Pass or Fail? And is this the rightful place for Suzuka? Fires in the grass and a resurfaced track with minimal running? What do you think? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

SETTLING IN FOR ROUND TWO... After a disappointing home race the 1/16th man hit back with a maiden pole and race win.  Don't sleep on George. Another P3 on race pace alone. The Brit is leading the team and you'd not want to take your eye off him. He is very much in the mix.  What's going on with Stroll? Another points finish, out driving Alonso...again. is there rumblings in the 4 walls and a change has been made?   And how would you rank the rookies after a second stint? Who's the big winner? The big loser?   All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

WE ARE BACK! Australia in its rightful place, a season that has started with a bang and headlines galore.  The orange tsunami has begun to rumble, are McLaren the ones to beat, or did the weather cover over some possible team cracks?  Williams snag a bagful. The talk of the town during testing but even with a DNF you can't help but think this corner that they have been chasing is about to be turned.  And a baptism of fire from our rookies, from DNS, to DNF and carnage, carnage and more carnage, but who was the big winner and the big loser?  All the plus much, much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

Droughts are made to be broken. After tears in the wilderness two of the giants of the sport battled it out for the constructors and team Papya came out on top. The weekend saw us say goodbye (for now) to the likes of Bottas, Zhou, KMag amd Colapinto while other swapped team colours as a new ear waits to dawn. Who was the big winner and big loser or just plain unlucky in the market moves? It was penalty city once again, a sprinkling of strikes, and fans again left confused, surely its time to get this right over the off season. And Lewis is slow, or so he says, you gotta ask, have Ferrari made the right decision? All that plus much much more on this week's episode.

Normal service has resumed, Max wins, 80pts to Norris, and the race that was half on, never was. Where are Zhou? We'll tell you where, pointsville. Stake takes the cake and after an absolute nothing year do not leave empty handed. Ten second stop go for Lando, an 11% lift for a .9 of a second was enough to save Max, but was Landos penalty fair? And Lewis is slow, or so he says, you gotta ask, have Ferrari made the right decision? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

It's the final triple header of the season and when all eyes are on the battle between the top contenders, Russell comes from nowhere in the cold Nevada night. But the big story was Max's 4 WDC.

Fan Frenzy is the episode where the fans take control of the conversation. 

It's all but over. A statement made, a drive for the ages and Max now has 1 hand on the title. Fumbles galore, as Mclaren and Norris had it all in their laps, but couldn't get it done. Was it ever as on as we thought or a bridge too far.  Alpine, the feel-good moment of the year, a joyous post-race, a podium worthy of a movie and two drivers who kept it clean when other couldn't.   And the stewards. They divided fans all weekend. Is it time for a full-time role? We think yes, do you agree?  All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

2 of 3 in the Merica' triple header and boy oh boy were the elbows out. A Sainz win was one to savour as Norris too a big chunk of points to close the title race again. What a load of bull! Fans and driver were left seething after Redbull got their elbows out, first Max, then Perez. A revised FIA interpretation and with a total of 20sec in penalties saw Max finish mid pack of the top 10. But is this the racing we want or did Rebull overstep the mark. Last week Lawson was the toast of the town but the boys showed his mean streak. A meeting with Horner and a slap on the wrist had many asking, was this the right call? And don't sleep on the boys in red. Second in constructors, they have the pace, the drivers and nothing to lose. Could Mclaren drop the ball in both title fights and go home empty handed? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.  

Welcome back, well of sorts, we had a month off and we have returned with a belter of a weekend as we said yeeehaw to Austin Texas. The healing process for Ricciardo fans has passed and Lawson has put to bed an doubts for now, a last to 9th drive silenced any haters for the time being. Max took the bull by the horns and drove a solid weekend. Was that a side ways look to Mclaren and Lando that said, hey, you won't catch me? And Ferrari secure a 1/2. Don't sleep on the boys in red. If this season has taught us anything it's that anything can happen. All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.  

Fan Frenzy, the pod where the fans conrol the conversation.

Norris swings the tide in Singapore but with the deficit to Max only 1 point less than it was in Miami, is he running out of time? Six to go, we have been hearing for weeks that the title fight us on, but, for how much longer. A mega save from Verstappen salvaged P2 and for the remaining rounds thats all he needs. Is there time for Norris to get the job done? Time to watch your language. A community service slap for Verstappen had everyone scratching their heads, but what part does the broadcasting play? Too harsh or is it time to mop up the expletives? And a farewell or just goodbye for now. RB pulled no punches behind the scenes as Ricciardo left Singapore in tears, has the Honey Badger become collateral damage in a political power struggle, or is time really up? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

Two #1s are better than none. Team Mclaren are flying and we suddenly have a possible four way title fight. Oscar is no mug, after a barrage of Brit beat downs last week, the Aussie shon in the Azerbaijan sun, hard to believe he has been at it for just on 18 months. The top scorer over the past 8 rounds, finished 100% of his races, make no mistake it's not a matter of if, but when.  Checo has awoken, or so it seemed, the street fighter excelled in Baku all weekend, but a late clash with Sainz had many asking who is at fault? And is this Bottas swan song, rumour has it Colapinto is hot on Audi's radar....watch this space. All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

The prince of Monaco becomes the King of Monza, a one stop for the ages, how can you not love a Ferrari win at home. Leclerc drove for the masses, a one stop roll of the dice that crowned him the king on Monza once again, a giant upgrade package and maybe, just maybe another twist in the tail of 2024. Williams, did good. Well kind of, points for Albon and Colapinto didn't disappoint, but let's just sit tight, you just don't know what Vowels might do next. And Papaya Rules were all the rage, people have dropped some "love" for Oscar, but hey we asked for racing so we got it, just be careful what you wish for fans. All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.  

SUMMER BREAK IS OVER....and sudden changing of the guard, a 22sec demolition for Lando and it is well and truly game on. Williams have pulled the pin on Sargeant, after a monster shunt, was this the right or wrong call so late in the season? The eb and flow at the front continued, as Ferrari pranced and Mercedes faltered, howereve with this the new trend in the season, it's now something we should be expecting, so who's game is it now in Monza?  And illegal parts at Rebull, rumours of a asymmetric breaking system as pricked ears around the paddock, hmmmmm watch this space.  All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

DISQUALIFIED. Not the words Russell wanted to hear. But 1.5kg short....does someone have questions to answer? Sainz signs on with Williams, after months in waiting, what do you make of the decision? It was a dirty day for Norris, Oscar backed it up with a brilliant showing, who's driving better right now and is there a possible headache on the horizon for Mclaren. And more pain for Alpine as Famine is shown the door. Is this a sustainable team any more? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! Ah the boy did good, it's been cooking but finally the oven has pinged and Piastri comes home P1. Radio ga ga was the talk of the day, and it exposed another chink in the McLaren armour. How much, if any damage has been done by the weekends events? Perez in the wall, a Q1 exit and a Ricciardo P1, pit your money on the line, is he in, or is he out? And it was a fired up Fernando after an FIA blunder in quali, stranded in the Apex GP bays, oh boy, what could have been.

The race of the season. Make no mistake, if Lewis isn't the greatest of all time, he is now. What have Haas been cooking? The 5th fastest car on the grid now, Hulk doing incredible things, Audi would be licking their lips securing his services, how much longer can they sustain it though? Is Checo checking out? With only 12pts in the past 5 rounds and heat on the much-maligned resigning, it's has to be a podium or bust next time out. And McLaren, 4 wins left on the table and a spattering of Ferrari like errors, they must cash in before the sun sets on their red hot form.

A dynamite quali, Norris on pole, a lead stolen by Russell but yet again, Verstappen takes the win. It's a four way fight as we turn for Austria. With the Redbull no longer a dominating force, there is much to look forward to. Who will be our next race winner? A turn of fortune for Alpine after a huge week off track and the return of Flav, but Aston have been once again left reeling with a negative upgrade, who will come out on top in this fight?  And ticket prices were the talk of the town as Silverstone pointed the finger at Redbull for lack of sales, is the GP experience slowly becoming out of reach for the fans?
