    We're back and fired up for the legendary Imola circuit as the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix roars into focus! This week, we're breaking down all the must-know news heading into race weekend—including the huge shakeup at Alpine as Franco Colapinto gets his shot, replacing Jack Doohan.

    lpine F1 is giving “mid-season drama” a whole new meaning. The long-whispered rumor finally came true: Jack Doohan is out, and Franco Colapinto is in. But just when fans thought that was the big news—boom—Team Principal Oliver Oakes vanishes like Lance Stroll in Q1. His departure caught everyone off guard and has people wondering if Flavio Briatore (the italian Bond villain and mastermind behind Crash Gate) had something to do with it. Was it a power struggle? Creative differences? Or did Oakes just realize managing Alpine is like herding cats at 200 mph? We unpack all the chaos, speculate wildly (but responsibly), and ask the big question: What the hell is going on at Alpine?

    The 2025 Formula 1 season just delivered an absolute banger in Bahrain—and we're breaking it all down. In what might go down as the most exciting race of the year, Oscar Piastri put the grid on notice with a dominant performance, staking his claim as a real contender for the Drivers Championship. Meanwhile, Red Bull looks to be in complete disarray. Despite the mess, Max Verstappen pulled off another jaw-dropping drive, dragging that car way beyond its limits. Over at Mercedes, George Russell somehow brought home P2 in a car that was literally falling apart. And don't sleep on Haas—double points, baby. Yes, you read that right. We unpack all the drama, surprises, and championship implications in this high-octane recap.
