Lots to dissect after the Hungarian GP!  In this episode Cameron grills Peter on: McLaren politics and strategy; Charles Leclerc; Ferrari's decision-making; Lewis and Max; and Peter adds: Carlos Sainz; Ollie Bearman and the perils of having to respond to "fiduciary duty".

For a while out there it looked as though Charles Leclerc and Ferrari would spoil the day of McLaren-Mercedes. As the wind blew from the west, rather than the east, Leclerc had taken the pole in the closing seconds of Q3.  And, from the start, he appeared to be in control: Oscar Piastri sat in his mirrors but Lando Norris fell back in the wake of George Russell's Mercedes.  Then, almost inevitably, it went wrong: Charles stopped early for his second set of Hard Pirellis and was thereafter never in the hunt: with floor damage, his Ferrari was over a second-a-lap off the pace.  It then became a straight fight between the two McLaren drivers, with Zak Brown allowing them to race to the finish. Piastri, on a two-stop strategy, had the performance advantage - but Norris, on a one-stopper, had the advantage of track position.  In this podcast, Peter looks back at the key elements not only of that race to the chequered flag but also of the weekend as a whole - at the amazing pole of Charles Leclerc, the dismal pace of Red Bull and the wretched weekend of Sir Lewis Hamilton.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Previewing the 2025 Hungarian GP, Peter's intro compares the grit and talent of the Hungarian driver, Ferenc Szisz, with that of Nigel Mansell, who finished third in the first World Championship Hungarian GP 40 years ago; Szisz, in 1906, won the first-ever Grand Prix (the French GP at Le Mans) with his Renault. Before responding to more great questions and comments from listeners, Peter also talks about the updates to the Hungaroring, the loose wheel nut that cost Nigel the 1987 race and the 1991 Williams steering wheel that for a while ended up in a marshal's bag. With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

It's the Tuesday evening (CET) after the Belgian GP, so questions and comments abound as we look back at the wet race that never was.  Peter talks about great wet races from the past - and some of the great wet-weather drivers - but there's also lots of chat, of course about some of the other features of the Belgian GP - the great P3 for Ferrari's Charles Leclerc and the battle between the two Mclaren-Mercedes drivers.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Will we ever again see a truly wet F1 race? And will the Belgian GP mark a pivotal moment in the fight for the 2025 Drivers' World Championship?  These were just two of the talking-points when Cameron spoke to Peter Windsor on the Monday after Spa.  Enjoy. With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

It rained all right - exactly at the time of the scheduled start of the Belgian GP.  This being 2025 F1, however, we didn't get a wet race.  Instead, the drivers sat around for 75 minutes or so before starting behind a Safety Car on a rapidly-drying track.  The pole of McLaren's Lando Norris then disappeared in the time it took for his team-mate, Oscar Piastri, to tow past Lando on the main straight on the first racing lap with an 11kph speed advantage - and thereafter it was Oscar all the way, helped by a slow pit stop for Lando plus two time-consuming Lando errors on hard-compound Pirelli slicks. Charles Leclerc finished a valiant third in his low-downforce Ferrari; Max Verstappen's wet rear wing settings left him a sitting duck on the dry track and a frustrated P4; George Russell finished fifth for Mercedes; and Alex Albon drove beautifully for Williams-Mercedes to hold off Sir Lewis Hamilton's Ferrari for P6-P7. Peter in this podcast looks back at the three days in Spa - at the Sprint pole for Oscar; at the Sprint win for Max; and then the Qualifying pole of Lando. There's lots of detail, too, about the upgrades to the cars as we go into the first part of a double-header before the August break. With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

In the build-up to this weekend's Belgian GP there are plenty of storylines: how will Red Bull look  and fare without Christian Horner? Qualifying is predicted to be dry but it could be very wet on race day..and that couldl be complicated, bearing in mind that Spa is also a sprint race weekend. Will Mercedes be as competitive at Spa as they were in 2024?  And what of the Lando-Oscar battle?

It seems unthinkable in 2025 but in the space of eleven days in July, 1980, Carlos Reutemann scored back-to-back podium finishes in an F1 race (the British GP at Brands Hatch) and then in a round of the World Rally Championship (the Rally Codasur in Argentina). In this podcast, Peter Windsor tells the story of how Carlos was able to put this feat together, switching from Williams FW07-Cosworth to Fiat 131 Abarth without major problems - and winning the ProCar BMW M1 race at Brands along the way. The telling is also supported by Carlos' own words, as narrated to Corsa magazine at the time.With thanks to, and respect for, that journalist extraordinaire, Orlando Rios; to the archivists at Corsa and El Grafico magazines; and to my much-missed friends, Germán Sopeña and Carlos ReutemannAnd to our partners for their support of this podcast:To Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Max Verstappen won the pole for the British GP - but by Sunday evening that seemed an age away:  McLaren-Mercedes scored another easy one-two (or was it a two-one?); Nico Hulkenberg finished a staggering P3 for Sauber-Ferrari; Sir Lewis Hamilton was fourth, thereby losing his 12-year podium streak at Silverstone to the driver who spent more time than any other to break his podium duck - and Max could finish only fifth in a difficult-to-manage Red Bull-Honda.  Re-live the action now with Peter's three essays from Friday and then the weekend.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Cameron invites Peter to look back at the Austrian GP - memorable moments? Oscar vs Lando? Max? Red Bull?  And much, much more.  Enjoy.Support the showVisit: https://youtube.com/peterwindsor for F1 videos past, present and future

Lando Norris began his race weekend in Austria with headset on, watching Alexander Dunne show his talent in FP1.  He then quickly made up for lost time, setting the pace in FP2, taking the pole on Saturday and winning the race on Sunday.  Of course, as Peter Windsor describes in this podcast, it was not as simple as that: his team-mate at McLaren-Mercedes, Oscar Piastri, applied pressure throughout the race; and Lando - like many other drivers - was obliged for most of the distance  to nurse aero damage on the car. McLaren, though, finished one-two again, with Ferrari crossing the line P3/P4 (with Charles Leclerc ahead of Sir Lewis Hamilton). George Russell was P5 for Mercedes but Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen, who qualified only seventh, was eliminated on the first lap when he was t-boned by the Mercedes of Kimi Antonelli. Support the showVisit: https://youtube.com/peterwindsor for F1 videos past, present and future

They were drawn into the closing laps with different teams, in different cars, via different strategies. With 15 laps to run, though, it was never closer: only five seconds covered George Russell (Mercedes),  Max Verstappen (Red Bull-Honda) and Kimi Antonelli in the other Mercedes. Then came the two McLaren-Mercedes of Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris.  Nothing seemed certain...until...

Peter's well fired-up in this episode - partly because Cameron, nice guy that he is, likes to wind up PW on the Mondays after a GP (in this case Canada) and partly because, for different reasons, and by different factions, the characters of two of F1's truest people - Lando Norris and Derek Warwick - have been called into question. Peter in this episode vehemently defends both of them. This podcast, in other words, features lots of McLaren and Red Bull chat - plus some Mercedes, Ferrari and Aston Martin observations for good measure.  A decaf, while listening, will suffice.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Re-live a dramatic - and pivotal - Spanish GP as it unfolded from Friday through to Sunday.  The race resulted in yet another one-two finish for McLaren-Mercedes but will be remembered for the fireworks in the closing laps, after a Safety Car deployment.  Charles Leclerc eventually finished third for Ferrari, ahead of Mercedes' George Russell, Nico Hulkenberg (Sauber-Ferrari), Sir Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari) and Isack Hadjar (Racing Bulls-Honda).  After driving brilliantly in pursuit of the McLarens for much of the race, Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen was demoted to P10 after a late-race collision with Russell.  Support the showVisit: https://youtube.com/peterwindsor for F1 videos past, present and future

No shortage of content here, whether it be McLaren-Mercedes brushing aside the new FIA wing tests to score another, devastating one-two finish in the Spanish GP; or Max Verstappen driving brilliantly through to the Safety Car deployment with six laps to go; or Max and Ferrari's Charles Leclerc colliding at 308kph; or Red Bull blowing Max's race with three bad calls (not keeping him out there, leading the race behind the SC, fitting hard Pirellis and needlessly telling Max to give position back to George Russell); or Max, exploding, deliberately t-boning Russell's Mercedes and incurring a ten-second penalty.  So settle back, keep the espressos brewing...and enjoy.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

It all happened in qualifying at Monaco - the more so because the new two-pit-stop rule for 2025 also nullified the drivers' ability to manage (or not) the Pirelli tyres. Thus it was a jubilant Lando Norris who won his first Monaco GP, ahead of Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, Lando's team-mate, Oscar Piastri and Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen. Sir Lewis Hamilton, who had incurred a three-place grid penalty for impeding, was a distant fifth for Ferrari, ahead of the excellent Racing Bulls-Honda of Isack Hadjar.  Join Peter as the action begins on FridayWith thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

A titanic win for Max Verstappen, this, underscored by a superb pass to take the lead on lap one, corner one; a majestic early stint on Pirelli Mediums; a superb restart from a Safety Car deployment; and fastest lap in the closing stages, when McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris was chasing him hard.  McLaren finished P2/P3 - and fourth, after a dismal qualifying session, was Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton. In this podcast, Peter looks back at three days at Imola, round seven of the FIA F1 World Championship.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Would McLaren-Mercedes' advantage continue through to Miami, scene of Lando Norris's convincing win in 2024?  Could Red Bull edge ever-closer?  And what of Mercedes and Ferrari?  They seemed to be trending in the right direction...and already Lewis Hamilton had won a sprint race. This, after all, would be F1's second sprint weekend of the season. To the background of  these talking-points the three days of  the Miami GP began. The weather forecast?

From seemingly nowhere on Friday, when his Red Bull RB21-Honda was plagued with understeer, Max Verstappen rose to the pole at Suzuka on Saturday and to an (unprecedented) fourth consecutive race win on Sunday.  The two McLaren MCL39-Mercedes, driven by Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, clearly  provided the better performance packages; yet, by consolidating his pole and by perfectly managing his tyres and the race as a whole - and by driving faultlessly -  Verstappen achieved one of his greatest dry-track victories.  Relive those moments now on our latest podcast. It begins with Friday at Suzuka - when Jack Doohan survived a huge shunt due to a DRS error - and ends with Max's Perfect Day.

As it's Japanese GP week, Cameron in this episode asks Peter about the ongoing drama surrounding the demotion of Liam Lawson - and what this says about Red Bull's Academy system; about how Yuki Tsunoda will perform in the A-team; about the strident criticism of Ferrari now rife in the Italian media; and about prospects for the race this weekend. Along the way, of course, Peter takes you through the usual, historic, F1 road trips.

The second round of the FIA F1 World Championship gave us everything - a pole and a sprint win for Ferrari's newest driver, Sir Lewis Hamilton; a first GP pole for McLaren-Mercedes' Oscar Piastri; a tense race between Piastri and his team-mate, Lando Norris; and, after it was all over, a stunning report from the scrutineers that resulted in the disqualification of both Ferrari's and Pierre Gasly's Alpine-Renault. In this podcast, Peter looks back at those three, turbulent days in Shanghai.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

This being the Monday after the spellbinding Australian GP there's a lot to dissect. There's the Lando-Oscar battle; there's Max; there's the dismal day for Ferrari; there's the New Kimi; there are the whacks with the barriers by several of the rookies. And there's the rise and rise of Williams.

The rain delivered another F1 thriller in Melbourne, with McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris crossing the line to win by only 0.8sec from Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen. George Russell and Kimi Antonelli finished P3-P4 for Mercedes and fifth was the excellent Alex Albon (Williams-Mercedes), ahead of Sauber-Ferrari's Nico Hulkenberg and the two, disappointing, Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Sir Lewis Hamilton. The race was strewn with incident, beginning with Racing Bull-Honda's Isaac Hadjar crashing on the formation lap; Alpine-Renault's Jack Doohan losing control on the straight on the opening lap; Carlos Sainz (Williams-Mercedes) spinning into the barriers due to a Safety Car mode glitch; Aston Martin-Mercedes' Fernando Alonso shunting at high speed on intermediate tyres; and Gabriele Bortoleto (Sauber-Ferrari) and Liam Lawson (Red Bull-Honda) going off-course while running slicks in the semi-wet. In addition, McLaren-Mercedes' Oscar Piastri (who seemed set to finish P2) spun luridly onto the grass and both Leclerc  and Antonelli survived quick track-surface spins without damage.  Peter Windsor in this video looks back at the day's key moments.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Plenty more irreverent chat here - all provoked by Cameron (so don't blame me!) :)There's a lot of pre-Melbourne chat, of course, with me trying to remind everyone that Lando Norris's biggest problem this year is not going to be how he stands up against Charles, Lewis, George or Max but how he deals with that ever-present threat that is Oscar Piastri.  Beating the guy in the same car as you is always the biggest challenge in F1.  Lewis and Charles are also up front in this chat - as is Jim Clark, who 60 years ago won both the FIA F1 World Championship and the Indianapolis 500 in the same year.  Enjoy and make mine a chai tea latte, thanks.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Lots of great questions and comments from our viewers/listeners as we went live on March 5 - the day after Jim Clark's birthday, as it happened.  The range of topics typically runs the full gamut, from Liam Lawson taking the trouble to watch his peers trackside in Bahrain to the effectiveness (or not) of Jean Alesi's incredibly early turn-in driving style.

Time for some more thought-provoking F1 chat between Peter and Cameron. Booing is a hot topic - as is the dire need for F1's star drivers to do a bit more promotional work over the winter.  Add the proposal to "improve the racing" at Monaco and you have more than enough opinion and controversy to justify yet another venti latte.  Enjoy.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Join Peter and viewers/listeners on the first livestream posted from our new studio in Spain.  Feb 19 also happened to be the day after the night before - the follow-up to the much-vaunted F1 75 at London's O2 Arena. Peter canvasses opinions about the event in this livestream but there's also the usual mix of  F1 content from all angles of all eras.  Highlights include: Fernando's chances in 2026; driving on the road with F1 stars; the status of EV in F1 in the light of the rapidly-changing road car market; Christian Horner being booed at the F1 75 event; Oscar Piastri changing his driving style; Alain Prost compared with Carlos Reutemann; the proposal for additional, mandatory, pit stops at Monaco; Thierry Neuville's WRC season start; and whether aircraft pilots can learn from racing drivers (or vice versa).  An eclectic menu, in other words.  Enjoy.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Peter talks at length with the driver who in 2024 underwent open-heart surgery before rising again to win. Only one other driver in motor racing history - Robert Kubica - has won both a World Championship Grand Prix and a major rally championship; the other is Heikki Kovalainen. Winner of the 2008 Hungarian GP for McLaren-Mercedes and a podium finisher for Renault F1, Heikki subsequently won two Japanese Rally Championships with Toyota in 2022 and 2023. Then, in the spring of 2024,  Heikki's life changed suddenly when he underwent urgent open-heart surgery in Finland. For two hours he was on life-support.As we now know, the operation was a resounding success. Heikki was soon back in business, presenting the trophies on the podium for the Secto Rally of Finland in early August, before winning again in Japan. It wasn't over, though: on November 25 he was lying a stunning third in the WRC2 division of the Rally of Japan when he crashed heavily on a fast right-hander. As he says in this interview, "it gave the new heart system a bit of a work-out..." And still there was to be an epilogue: basically uninjured, Heikki on December 14-15 jumped into a car totally new to him and won the all-tarmac Union Rally in Italy. All for the love of his sport. Which is why, in our opinion Heikki was unquestionably the star of 2024 In this interview he talks to Peter about his surgery (44:30); about his massive shunt in Japan (28.53); and about beating the likes of Michael Schumacher, Sebastien Loeb, David Coulthard, Felipe Massa, Sebastian Vettel and Toyota's latest Rally star, Sami Pajari, in head-to-head match races in a wide variety of cars (17:00).With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.

Join Peter Windsor as he talks at length with Peter Wright, the former BRM and Lotus engineer who, in a career that began in the late 1960s, not only pioneered ground effect with Colin Chapman but who also subsequently worked for the FIA on such safety developments as the survival cell, the halo, the HANS collar, circuit barriers and composite helmet design. Along the way, Peter also found time to create his own self-sustaining glider, to fly a Tiger Moth and to restore a Bugatti T51.  Peter Wright spoke to Peter Windsor from his home in Presteigne, on the Welsh-English border, just before Christmas. This uncut recording of the conversation revolves around the recent publication of Peter's autobiography ( "How Did I Get Here?", which can be ordered via email from www.howdidigethere.co.uk) and includes several sections not featured in our YouTube video. It begins with Peter admitting that, yes, he had at one point been a bit of a hippy...With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets:https://jetcraft.comTo OEM Exclusive, the passionate suppliers of OEM upgrades for exotic and high-performance vehiclesAnd to TrackNinja, a lap-timer and data app designed to help users improve their on-track car and driver performance through analysis and an innovative Data Garage.  A lite version is free; the loaded version is US$9.99 pcm or $99.99 yearlyhttps://trackninja.appFollow @peterdwindsor on Bluesky, Twitter (X) and InstaCheck out our new Spanish- and Portuguese-language YouTube channels:www.youtube.com/peterwindsorAlpinestars:https://alpinestars.comOscar Razor:Australia's highly-rated, 5-blade razors for men and women https://oscarrazor.com.auInstagram (Hindi):@peterdwindsorWe support the Race Against Dementia:https://raceagainstdementia.com#standwithukraine Nick: you're always with us Visit: https://youtube.com/peterwindsor for F1 videos past, present and future
