An appraisal of Formula E's surprising choice of Homestead as a venue for the tenuously titled Miami E-Prix is picked through after a messy end to a race that saw numerous penalties applied. Pascal Wehrlein had elements of fortune on the way to his first E-Prix win of the season, while teammate Antonio Felix da Costa was one of several drivers to be scuppered by a late red flag for a multi-car shunt at a specially made chicane. The possibility of Wehrlein retaining his title is dug in to, as is the poor early season form of Jaguar, who will lose its team principal James Barclay at season end. A miserable weekend in Florida from the Stellantis powered car is also analysed, as is strong performances from Nico Mueller, Dan Ticktum and Lucas di Grassi, the last of which scored a momentous surprise second place for a reborn Lola. Latest news discussed includes the future of NEOM McLaren, the probable arrival of Opel and some details about a new documentary series which is set to hit the screens next month.

Nissan boss Tommaso Volpe joins host Andrew van de Burgt and chief reporter Sam Smith to analyse Oliver Rowland's superb smash ‘n' grab victory at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico City E-Prix. Questions such as would Rowland have caught the Porsches without the intervention of the first safety car and will Nissan mount a serious challenge to Pascal Wehrlein and Antonio Felix da Costa for the title are also dissected with Volpe. A poor race for Jaguar TCS Racing is mulled over, as are the prospects for the DS Penske team and Envision Racing who had contrasting fortunes in Mexico City.  New venues such for 2026 and beyond such as Toronto are expanded upon, and could Cape Town and Santiago really return to the calendar? All this and the latest news and views from a busy paddock are tucked in to as Formula E enters 2025 with its usual vibrant twists. Want extra podcast content? Join The Race Members' Club on Patreon!

The first of a special two-part series looking back at a decade of Formula E focuses on the early years of the all-electric series and features current broadcaster Nicki Shields, former commentator Jack Nicholls, and 2019-20 champion Antonio Felix da Costa. Sam Smith and Andre van de Burgt host over an hour of memories about how Formula E got together in the first place, how it almost died after three races and then boomed in the first five years of its existence. Memories of the first season are majored on, as are some of the hair-raising moments from a championship that broke the mould to become one of the more successful sporting start-ups of the century so far. Among the more amusing moments are recollections of Nick Heidfeld and Nico Prost's infamous accident at the first race in Beijing and how da Costa almost left the nascent series before it had even started.

Antonio Felix da Costa heißt der große Sieger in Portland. Der Portugiese erlebt ein perfektes Wochenende und punktet dank seiner beiden Rennsiege ordentlich. Das absolute Gegenteil ist bei WM-Leader Nick Cassidy der Fall: Null Punkte für den Jaguar-Piloten, genau wie für Oliver Rowland, der den Weg nach Portland aus gesundheitlichen Gründen gar nicht erst antreten konnte. Außerdem gibt es wieder einmal Ärger wegen einer Entscheidung der Rennkommissare, dazu gibt es die Wiederauferstehung des Robin Frijns. Gewinner gab es natürlich auch beim Kicktipp-Tippspiel. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

The 2024 ABB FIA Formula E world championship title fight was blown wide open at the expansive Portland International Raceway as Antonio Felix da Costa scored a remarkable double for Porsche. After scoring zero points in the first three races and having even his position in the Porsche team questioned, da Costa is now an outside bet to become a double Formula E champion in the most unlikely of scenarios. But realistically it's a scrap between Jaguar teammates Mitch Evans and Nick Cassidy, as well as da Costa's teammate Pascal Wehrlein. Just 12 points separate them heading in to the final rounds at London ExCeL Arena in two week's time. Cassidy could and should have put the crown to bed in Portland but both Sam Smith and Andrew van de Burgt analyse how he managed to spin away his chances on the penultimate lap of Saturday's race. The controversial penalty that lost Mitch Evans the win is deep-dived in to, as is the performances of Sunday polesitter Jean-Eric Vergne, Abt miracle maker Nico Mueller and a rejuvenated Robin Frijns from Envision.

The Formula E driver market is ablaze, so we thought we'd get Sam Smith and Andrew van de Burgt to pour some sustainable fuel upon it for this special episode. The futures of two former champions, Antonio Felix da Costa and Stoffel Vandoorne, are at the forefront of 'silly season' rumours with the former set to essentially dictate the market after a tumultuous second year with the German manufacturer. Vandoorne's recent talks with Envision are analysed, as is the possibility of Jake Hughes breaking free of NEOM McLaren and heading elsewhere. Also, the possible end of Sebastien Buemi decade long Formula E career is discussed as the Swiss looks increasingly likely to be replaced by Vandoorne. In addition to the merry-go-round, the new for 2024-25 calendar is also looked in to with Smith and van de Burgt pontificating over planned new races at Homestead and Chiang Mai, while a future for Formula E at Silverstone is also debated.

Sam Smith and Andrew van de Burgt are joined by motorsport writer and The Race contributor, Alice Holloway, as the business end of the 2024 Formula E season arrives, with talk of the title fight now being a straight scrap between Jaguar's Nick Cassidy and Porsche's Pascal Wehrlein. But neither of them took the wins as the all-electric world championship returned to mainland China for the first time since 2015. It was their respective teammates Mitch Evans and Antonio Felix da Costa that triumphed after well-judged victories in more high-energy target races. The future of da Costa and his at times fraught relationship with Porsche is discussed, as is the likelihood of Jake Dennis now not being able to defend his title and Nissan's Oliver Rowland also losing ground to his rivals. The trials and tribulations of Envision Racing are analysed, as is the future of Stoffel Vandoorne and the likelihood of Silverstone becoming the future home of a UK Formula E round.

The Race Formula E podcast takes an in-depth look in to a tempestuous weekend at Berlin Tempelhof where Nick Cassidy and Antonio Felix da Costa triumphed amid a hail of carbon shards and intra-team and manufacturer recriminations. The Race team explain why the racing was so fraught and what the slow-build and then quick burst peloton style of racing means for Formula E's future. The bigger picture of what Cassidy's bumper points haul means for the title race is also analysed, as is how his teammate Mitch Evans might be able to haul himself back in to contention after a tricky weekend in Germany. Oliver Rowland's continued impressive form is discussed alongside how it might be affecting his teammate Sacha Fenestraz. A round up of the news includes a likely all-female test at Valencia in November and the latest possibilities for new venues in the much debated 2025 calendar. Hosts Sam Smith and Andrew van de Burgt also pointlessly reminisce about the 1983 Long Beach Grand Prix, Jean-Pierre Jarier's erratic form and why Smith randomly stole a packet of Haribo from a private jet.

Jaguar's peerless 1-2 at Monaco is picked apart by Sam Smith and Andrew van de Burgt as the Big Cat captured only its second 1-2 in the all-electric world championship.

Neben der Disqualifikation von Antonio Felix da Costa und den Ausfall von Oliver Rowland am Sonntag werfen sie insbesondere einen Blick auf Nico Müller und die beiden ERT-Fahrer. Außerdem geht es um die Gewinner und Verlierer des Misano E-Prix. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

A typically action-packed Formula E weekend at the energy-bonkers Misano circuit in Italy is debated in this episode with special guest Maserati MSG's Maximilian Guenther. Oliver Rowland and Pascal Wehrlein were the victors but the biggest story of the weekend was Antonio Felix da Costa's bizarre and petty disqualification and the furious exchanges between Porsche and the FIA That is forensically analysed, as is the why Oliver Rowland ran out of energy while starting the last lap handing Wehrlein the win and the championship points lead. Gunther details his races which involved a strong run to third on Saturday, a dust up with Mitch Evans, getting airborne via kerbs and then seeing another points finish on Sunday being taken away for an incident with Jean-Eric Vergne. Hosts Andrew Van de Burgt and Sam Smith also take a wry-eye look at various other flashpoints, decipher the latest paddock news and indulge, for no particular reason at all, in reminiscing randomly about 1980s boxers and the long-forgotten Cagliari F3000 street race.

The recent episode of The Apprentice is mulled over by Van de Burgt who is unflinching in his assessment of what he believed was a major lost opportunity for Formula E.

The two Diriyah EPrixs through up vastly different protagonists last week with only Nick Cassidy managing to achieve anything bordering on consistency. In this week's Formula E podcast Sam Smith and Andrew van de Burgt are joined by Envision Racing's Robin Frijns who put behind him a disappointing Friday race in Riyadh to lead but ultimately finish second to Cassidy in the second race. The trio discuss what made the event so difficult and what could be done in the future to make track conditions more conducive to racing. Topics such as Mitch Evans' eventful Friday race, Pascal Wehrlein's damage limitation exercises, surprises from Sergio Sette Camara and Jehan Daruvala, and the worrying form from Antonio Felix da Costa, are also covered off.

Sam Smith and Andrew van de Burgt are joined by Nissan's Sacha Fenestraz to review a spectacular Rome EPrix that saw several twists in the hitherto close 2023 title battle. Jake Dennis emerged as the clear favourite after winning the second race on Sunday, with his joy accelerated by the fact his two most direct championship competitors collided on the second lap. Also discussed is the catastrophic accident triggered by Sam Bird losing control of his Jaguar and the near misses that ensued, particularly for Antonio Felix da Costa, Edoardo Mortara and Bird himself. The knock-on effect of that shunt also included some remarkable stories on how new monocoques were allocated throughout the paddock. Fenestraz describes his pride in Nissan achieving its best result in almost two years, while the Franco-Argentinian also mulls over a promising yet ultimately difficult weekend in which his excellent Saturday qualifying essentially counted for nothing come the race.

Welcome to the Lovecars On The Grid Podcast, where our presenters, Tiff Needell and Paul Woodman bring us a motorsport roundup from the past week! We have WRC, Formula E and single seater updates this week! But of course, we start with Formula 1 news, where FIA president, Mohammed Ben Sulayem has announced that he will not get as involved in Formula 1. The announcement comes after the FIA President caused more controversy over his sexism comments. Max Verstappen will appear in the upcoming Netflix series, Drive To Survive. The Formula 1 World Champion has stated that he has given Netflix a 30 minute interview on last season. In Women's Motorsport, British driver, Katherine Legge has been announced to be driving at the Indy 500 this year. At the Formula E in India, a new motorsport Championship has been launched for 2024, named ACE Championship. We had a really good rally in the WRC in Sweden, where we had snow and ice. Ott Tänak won the rally in his M-Sport Ford, taking the lead in the final stage from Craig Breen, a now Hyundai driver that used to drive for the Ford team. Formula E were racing in Hyderabad in India. After blocking his fellow drivers, DS Penske's Jean-Eric Vergne brought home the win, beating Envision Racing driver Nick Cassidy in 2nd, and TAG Heuer Porsche's Antonio Felix da Costa who was given 3rd place, following a penalty to Sebastian Buemi. In UK Motorsport, there's a proposal to penalise drivers by 1 second instantly if they put a half a tyre off the track. This would be a UK law for all motorsport taking place in the UK. Furthermore, drivers are not allowed to protest the decision. The Formula Four and Formula Regional Middle East were in Dubai this weekend, with Ferrari academy driver, Tuukka Taponen, appearing to be a shining light in this series. In Formula Regional Middle East, Mercedes academy driver, Andrea Kimi Antonelli took his win and look to be the favourite to win the season.

Mitch Evans joins Andrew van de Burgt and Sam Smith to pick the bones from a dramatic double-header in Brooklyn, New York City last weekend. The Jaguar TCS Racing driver proffers his opinion on the controversial decision not to re-start the Saturday race after a localised cloudburst sent several cars, including the leader Nick Cassidy crashing off the track in a bizarre Takeshi's Castle style ending to the race. Evans kept himself in the title hunt with a third place in Sunday's event but Jean-Eric Vergne's non-score casts doubt on his credentials now of grabbing a third title. The trio also look into the confusing penalty given to original Sunday pole-sitter Cassidy, the first win in 14 months for Antonio Felix da Costa and Evans' energetic battle with Mercedes EQ's Nyck de Vries. A look in to whether this was the last New York City event is also discussed, as is the upcoming London EPrix at ExCeL Arena where several track changes should spice up the racing and the title fight.

Diese Frage wurde einst beim Großen Preis von Brasilien 2008 gestellt, als der damalige Toyota-Pilot auf Trockenreifen auf nasser Strecke Lewis Hamilton passieren lassen musste, was Hamilton zum Weltmeister und ihn zur Hassfigur der Paulista gemacht hat, denn dadurch wurde "ihr Fahrer", Felipe Massa, nicht Weltmeister. Die Rede ist von Timo Glock, den ehemaligen Formel 1-Piloten und heutigen Fahrer für das Team BMW RMG in der DTM. Mit Kevin Scheuren und dem Chefredakteur unserer Partner motorsport-total.com, formel1.de und de.motorsport.com - Christian Nimmervoll - spricht er offen über Aktuelles und Vergangenes. Der Blick über den Tellerrand Natürlich sprechen wir mit Timo über das Ende der Ära Vettel bei Ferrari und was dazu beigetragen haben könnte, dass der Heppenheimer dort nicht verlängert hat. Ist Carlos Sainz der richtige Ersatz für ihn? Timo beobachtet die Szene natürlich als RTL-Experte ganz genau und bezieht auch dazu Stellung. Es geht um die Qualität von Teamchefs und was sie mit einem Fahrer machen können und welchen Einfluss sie haben. Die derzeitige Krise wirft den Motorsport, wie die ganze Gesellschaft, total durcheinander. Wie groß ist das Risiko wirklich aus Timos Sicht und was können Rennserien wie die DTM machen, die einen weiteren Hersteller zur Saison 2021 verloren haben? Wir haben einen aufgeräumten, balancierten und gut informierten Rennfahrer für euch heute am Mikrofon. Traurige Kulisse und Bodenständigkeit Die Bedeutung der Fans für Rennfahrer wird oftmals unterschätzt. Sie bekommen mehr mit als viele denken, besonders beim Drumherum. Auf dem Weg vom Motorhome ins Auto, in der Startaufstellung oder natürlich auf dem Podium. Timo spricht im heutigen Podcast darüber, dass ein Sieg schon anders gefeiert werden würde als sonst, aber das immer noch besser ist statt gar nicht zu fahren. Im Anschluss widmen wir uns seiner Karriere und dem Werdegang des Timo Glock. Vom Gerüstbauer zum Formel 1-Fahrer, eine besondere Geschichte, bei der sein Vater maßgeblichen Einfluss genommen hat. Lasst euch von Timos Bodenständigkeit inspirieren auf dem Weg in die Königsklasse. Toyota, Hamilton, Trulli und besondere Erinnerungen Hört in der neuen Ausgabe alles rund den Weg des Timo Glock durch die verschiedenen Rennserien bis hin in die Formel 1 und letztendlich in die Formel 1. Die Erfahrungen bei Jordan, sein USA-Abenteuer, BMW-Sauber, Dr. Mario Theissen, GP2, Lewis Hamilton, Toyota, das ominöse 2010er-Auto, BMW, Antonio Felix da Costa, Jarno Trulli und vieles mehr. Macht euch bereit für ein unterhaltsames Interview mit einem sehr sympathischen Typen, dem wir an dieser Steller weiterhin alles Gute wünschen. Viel Vergnügen mit diesem besonderen Podcast!
