In this livestream, Cory Pesaturo introduces new stats that may just elevate Max Verstappen to GOAT status (15:38); and a wide variety of viewers' questions and comments take us forward to the new regs of 2026, back to the under-rated brilliance of Renault and Jean-Pierre Jabouille in the 1979 French GP, sideways to the artistry of Mauricio Arrivabene's signature and centre-stage to the rise and rise of Toyota in motor sport. In his opening monologue, Peter also pays tribute to the lives and times of the artist, Michael Turner, and the author, Gerry DonaldsonSpecial thanks to Cory Pesaturo (@cpez)With thanks, too, 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.

Peter, Mark Slade and viewers look back at the 2025 F1 season finale at Abu Dhabi. Max won it...but Lando took the title by two points. Plenty about which to talk right there - plus much more. As a special bonus, Mark Slade, a title-winning F1 race engineer, will be adding his views on the race and the season just past; the future of Alpine; the skill of Alain Prost; and why Ferrari have had so many problems in 2025. Viewers join us on YouTube chat to talk about all this and more in our latest livestream. 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.

And so it ended.  Max, Oscar and Lando finished one-two-three on the Abu Dhabi road - but it was Lando who was thus ahead in the final standings of the FIA Drivers' World Championship by the margin of two points. Lando Norris = World Champion. Max was magnificent from the pole; Oscar ran hard Pirellis from the start (rather than the Mediums selected by all the other major runners) and, in so doing, applied some pressure on Max for most of the distance; towards the end, though, on old-ish Hards, Max was super-quick and super-consistent as he consolidated his margin over Oscar. Lando brought his McLaren MCL39-Mercedes home in a crafted third place, responding to potential undercuts from George Russell and Charles Leclerc and scything through the mid-field traffic whenever he was on fresh tyres; and Charles Leclerc finished a dazzling P4 for Ferrari, upstaging the factory Mercedes of George Russell and ultimately setting fastest lap late in the race on used Mediums. Into P6, behind George, came a classy Fernando Alonso in the Aston Martin-Mercedes, Esteban Ocon (Haas-Ferrari) and Sir Lewis Hamilton, who had started P16 in his Ferrari. In this video Peter looks back at the key elements of this absorbing, tension-filled finale and reflects - just a little - on the flavour of the season just past.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.

A somewhat shell-shocked Cameron chats to Peter on the Tuesday after the Abu Dhabi GP.  Lando is the new World Champion; Max is the season's winningest driver. So who won? And why? And what were the pivotal moments? And is the current F1 points-scoring system actually working? These were just a few of the topics covered on this particular morning, when the coffee was flowing freely and the sun - in Spain, at least - was kinda warm.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.

Against all odds - against all logic - Max Verstappen and Red Bull-Honda decisively and clinically won the Qatar GP on Sunday, with McLaren-Mercedes finishing only P2-P4, sandwiching the Williams-Mercedes of Carlos Sainz. In what will be remembered as the most inexplicable strategy call of the 2025 season, both McLaren drivers were told to stay out when a Safety Car was deployed on lap seven. Thus went their chance of a "free" tyre change in a race in which the use of each set of Pirellis was uniquely limited to 25 laps. With the rest of the field switching tyres under the SC conditions, McLaren now faced a two-stop race against what had now effectively become a one-stop race for their opposition.  And it was Max Verstappen who capitalised on that error - instantly and without blinking.  He was quick on his second set of mediums - and he was McLaren-fast on his set of hard tyres, often surpassing Piastri's times in the first two sectors. His was a titanic win at a crucial point of the championship, for Lando Norris now goes to Abu Dhabi, the season's finale, with only a 12-point lead over Verstappen and a 16-point margin over his team-mate. In this video, Peter Windsor looks back at the key elements of an extraordinary night.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.

No prizes for guessing the hot topics in this chat with Cameron.  McLaren's Qatar strategy - or lack of it - forms the basis of the Cam-Peter interchange, with Cameron doing his best to wind up Windsor wherever possible.  And Windsor, of course, takes the bait.  There's also lots of Lewis and mountains of Max...so sit back, add the pumpkin spice and sip the latte.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.

Sit back to enjoy another Max Verstappen demonstration of how it should be done - this time with a Red Bull that was virtually undriveable on Friday, so bad was its bouncing.  Max struggled through to P4 in the Sprint but, after changes made to the car before qualifying, recovered to start the main race P3. That became P2 after the first corner and then P1 when the McLaren-Mercedes made their first stop for tyres.  And P1 - despite the quality of the McLaren MCL39s - became the win. Simple. Or was it? We begin this video with a chat with Mark Slade, the race engineer who won races and world titles at McLaren and Mercedes.  After that, it's Peter taking your questions and comments about subjects as far afield as word-portraits of Stirling Moss, Jim Clark and Jackie Stewart; the sort of speech Zak Brown will deliver if McLaren fail to win the Drivers' title; and prospects for Abu Dhabi this Sunday.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.

Peter and viewers/listeners look back at a sensational Las Vegas GP and ahead to this weekend's Qatar GP - the penultimate round of the 2025 F1 World Championship. Cars will be limited to 25 laps per set of Pirelli tyres in Qatar - and it's a Sprint weekend, too.  So what can we expect?  After the mayhem of Vegas, the Championship fight is still very much alive in the hands of Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen.

Max Verstappen's domination of the Las Vegas assumed much greater perspective post-race when, incredibly, both McLaren-Mercedes were disqualified due to technical infringements. In this podcast, Cameron grills Peter on this key moment, on the brilliance of Max, on the troubles at Ferrari, and with Lewis Hamilton in particular, and on lots more besides.  Download, settle back and enjoy the coffee. 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 all eyes on Vegas as Mark Slade delves into the nuances of car and tyre set-up for the fast street circuit - fast in the sense of long straights (as distinct from quick, demanding corners).  Temperatures will be slightly less cold this year due to the earlier scheduling of practice, qualifying and the race but Pirelli tyre preparation laps will still be critical - as Mark highlights in this podcast.  Peter also takes a multitude of questions and comments from viewers - some relating to the past, some the present and some the future.  Plenty of alleyways there, containing hidden doors to a vault of anecdotes.

Join Peter and viewers as they look back at a sensational Brazilian (São Paulo) GP at Interlagos. Peter in his opening monologue talks about the controversy surrounding the power unit change on Max Verstappen's Red Bull-Honda and the post-race comment by Ferrari's Chairman, John Elkann, in which he advised his two drivers - Charles Leclerc and Sir Lewis Hamilton - to "talk less and focus on driving". This stream also diverts into a variety of racing subjects - some current, some past - but all a part of the F1 whole.

Although Lando Norris in Brazil took another giant leap towards the 2025 World Championship, this race will forever be remembered by Max Verstappen's stunning drive from the pit-lane to P3. With Max failing to make it out of Q1 on Saturday, Red Bull-Honda took the decision to change the power unit - and the set-up, yet again - and incur the usual penalty.  In this video Peter tracks the progress of the events in Brazil from Friday morning right through to a bonus debrief chat with Mark Slade, the former McLaren, Mercedes and Renault race engineer. 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.

Mark won two Brazilian GPs with Mika Hakkinen and for a while - for a week or so - enjoyed a third win with Kimi Raikkonen (before victory was instead awarded to Jordan's Giancarlo Fisichella).

On the face of it, a Lando Norris/McLaren-Mercedes walkover - and a straightforward race - seemed inevitable.  In reality, the 2025 Mexican GP was anything but. It produced stunning drives not only from Lando but also from Max Verstappen, Charles Leclerc and Oliver Bearman. It included a dramatically-spectacular first corner melée. And it created, one-on-one, a Max-versus-Charles, Red Bull-versus-Ferrari, soft Pirelli-versus-Hard Pirelli closing battle for P2 that...ended in a VSC. It had almost everything, in other words - as Peter Windsor describes in this podcast. The action begins on Friday, continues with a special Mark Slade interview after free practice and Saturday and concludes with the race on Sunday.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.

There is much to consider after Austin - so there are views aplenty on the Big One:  can the brilliant Max Verstappen achieve the almost-impossible and win the 2025 world title? Following his clean sweep in Texas, that question is more than hypothetical.  Also, how is Zak's McLaren Masterplan panning-out? And, following their aggressive showing in Texas, can Ferrari be truly competitive in the thin air of Mexico this weekend? As a special bonus, this livestream also includes an in-depth chat with Mark Slade, the title-winning F1 Race Engineer.

The F1 teams by Monday morning in Austin had long since departed for Mexico; for Cameron and Peter Windsor, however, there was still much to dissect, to wit: the quality of Max Verstappen's win-all weekend; the so near-so far race for Lando Norris; the brilliance of Charles Leclerc; and the lack-lustre Sunday for Oscar Piastri and George Russell.  Plus: we have a Championship...and the winner may not be a McLaren driver.  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.

On the back of his two poles and Sprint race win, Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen led the US GP from start to finish, beating Lando Norris (McLaren-Mercedes) by eight seconds. Ferrari's Charles Leclerc finished an excellent P3 after choosing to start the race on soft-compound Pirellis; his team-mate, Sir Lewis Hamilton, finished fourth; and a lackluster Oscar Piastri took P5 in the other McLaren-Mercedes, ahead of George Russell (factory Mercedes), Yuki Tsunoda (Red Bull-Honda), Nico Hulkenberg (Sauber-Ferrari), Oliver Bearman (Haas-Ferrari) and Fernando Alonso (Aston Martin-Mercedes). In this video Peter details the brilliance of Verstappen's performance; explains why, in his opinion, McLaren under-performed; and highlights the sheer quality of Charles Leclerc's race to P3. Also included in this podcast is a special interview with Mark Slade, the championship-winning race engineer at McLaren, Renault and Mercedes. In conversation with Peter, Mark tees up the weekend with a perceptive look at the events of Free Practice on Friday.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 was George Russell and Mercedes all the way in Singapore - thanks to the brilliance of that combination around the Marina Bay circuit  and also to a decision by Red Bull to start Max Verstappen on soft Pirelli tires. In trouble with tyre degradation long before the medium-compound runners around him were due to stop, Verstappen thereafter spent the bulk of the race in stunning defense on his older, hard-compound Pirellis. He finished a diamond-hard P2, though, ahead of the two McLaren drivers and Russell's young team-mate, Kimi Antonelli. There was controversy at McLaren as, first, Lando Norris collided with both Verstappen and the other McLaren driver, Oscar Piastri, at the first corner sequence and then, later, when Norris was asked to make a decision about when Piastri should stop to switch from medium tires to hard. In this video Peter talks about all of this plus the other key elements of a dramatic evening.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.

Lots of post-Singapore chat here, ranging from the gloves-off moments between Oscar and Lando; the perils of Vogue; Red Bull's decision to start Max on Pirelli softs; and the very underwhelming evening for Ferrari.

In the wake of a frenetic weekend of sport - Max at the "Ring, Jos in Belgium, Alpine in Japan, Europe at Bethpage Black - we join Peter live on YouTube as we look ahead to this weekend's Singapore GP, round 18 of this year's mammoth 24-race championship. The night race could be close, particularly if Ferrari keep it on the straight and narrow. McLaren-Mercedes drivers, Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris, are still a long way ahead in the points table...but the new floor on the Red Bull RB21-Honda is working well; and Mercedes, who, ran strongly at Baku, should also be very quick.  And then there is the powerhouse that is Max Verstappen - fresh from that GT3 win (in a Ferrari!) at the Nürburgring long circuit.  We talked about all this and more - including the direct relevance of Ryder Cup team-play with F1 - in this, our latest livestream.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.

Peter and viewers/listeners look back at another sensational with for Max Verstappen and Red Bull-Honda.  Baku confirmed that Monza, for Max, was not a one-off: the new floor is a major step forwards. McLaren-Mercedes drivers, Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris, are still a long way in the lead...but it isn't over yet. Mercedes, too, ran strongly at Baku - but Mercedes and McLaren suffered weekends to forget.  We talk about all this and much more in this, our latest livestream.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 was Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen all the way at Baku - from the pole, throughout the race and with fastest lap to his credit. In terms of a Grand Slam like this, Max is now only two away from...Jim Clark. George Russell finished a valiant P2 for Mercedes, ahead of Williams-Mercedes' Carlos Sainz, who drove beautifully from the front row. With Ferrari finishing only P8/P9, and McLaren-Mercedes P7/DNF, the minor placings were filled by Kimi Antonelli (P4 in the other factory Mercedes), Liam Lawson (Racing Bulls-Honda) and Yuki Tsunoda (Red Bull-Honda).  In this podcast, Peter looks back at the key elements of the three-day weekend, beginning with Friday practice on the demanding street circuit.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 Wednesday after the 2025 Pirelli Italian GP at Monza, so there's lots of chat here about team orders at McLaren and the potential for Max Verstappen and the re-floored Red Bull-Honda; but also there is the usual, wide spectrum of subjects raised by our listeners, ranging from the role of driver coaches in F1 to which drivers - in the history of the sport! - have had, or have, the best throttle control.  Good question...

Despite ceding the lead to McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris at the end of lap one, Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen brilliantly won the Pirelli Italian GP at Monza, beating both McLaren drivers down into the minor placings. For their part, McLaren introduced more controversial team orders to enable Lando Norris to finish second ahead of Oscar Piastri. Charles Leclerc drove the skin off his Ferrari to finish fourth ahead of Mercedes' George Russell and Sir Lewis Hamilton, who started with a five-place grid penalty after a yellow flag infringement at Zandvoort. Peter in this podcast analyses the Italian GP weekend from the start of the action on Friday through to the chequered flag on Sunday, explaining where Max found an advantage over Lando and Oscar in qualifying and how he parlayed that on Sunday into one of the best wins of the season.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.

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.

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.
