Mercedes Reserve Driver Valtteri Bottas joins Tom Clarkson to look ahead to this weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix in Budapest. Before they dive into the big talking points, you'll hear from Max Verstappen after the four-time World Champion confirmed he'll be staying at Red Bull for 2026 to end weeks of speculation around his future. Oscar Piastri goes into the weekend 16 points ahead of Lando Norris at the top of the Drivers' Standings. Whose driving style does the Hungaroring circuit suit best out of the two McLaren drivers? And with the summer break meaning a four-week wait until the next Grand Prix in Zandvoort, how important is this weekend in the title race from a psychological point of view? Ferrari have announced that Team Principal Fred Vasseur has signed a multi-year contract with the team. What statement does that send about their intentions? And with Charles Leclerc scoring four podiums in the last six races, and Lewis Hamilton winning a record eight times in Hungary, will the team continue the progress they made with their rear suspension upgrade in Belgium? Plus, Valtteri gives us the lowdown on Mercedes – why have they struggled for performance in the European leg of the season? What are their chances of returning to the podium in Hungary? And what advice has he given Kimi Antonelli after his recent confidence issues?

A trade deal reached on Sunday between the United States and the European Union has sparked controversy among European officials, businesspeople and analysts — despite both sides hailing it as a step toward restoring "trade balance "and promoting fairer commerce.美国和欧盟周日达成的一项贸易协议在欧洲官员、商界人士和分析人士中引发了争议，尽管双方都称赞这是恢复“贸易平衡”和促进更公平商业的一步。At the heart of the debate is the deal's asymmetry: The US will lower tariffs on EU goods to 15 percent, while the EU has agreed not to impose additional tariffs on US products.争论的核心是该协议的不对称性：美国将把欧盟商品的关税降至15%，而欧盟已同意不对美国产品征收额外关税。French Minister for European Affairs Benjamin Haddad described the agreement as "unbalanced", though he acknowledged it would "bring temporary stability to economic actors threatened by the escalation of American tariffs".法国欧洲事务部长本杰明·哈达德称该协议“不平衡”，尽管他承认该协议将“为受美国关税升级威胁的经济行为体带来暂时的稳定”。German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said, "We have thus managed to preserve our fundamental interests, even if I would have wished for more relief in trans-Atlantic trade."德国总理弗里德里希·默茨说：“因此，我们设法维护了我们的根本利益，即使我希望在跨大西洋贸易中得到更多缓解。”Italy's Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said the agreement "ensures stability" and that the 15 percent tariff level is "sustainable", especially if it is not added to previous duties.意大利总理Giorgia Meloni表示，该协议“确保了稳定”，15%的关税水平是“可持续的”，特别是如果不将其添加到以前的关税中。Olivier Blanchard, a Robert Solow professor of economics emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, called the agreement "completely unequal", saying the "asymmetric 15 percent tariffs are an EU defeat".麻省理工学院Robert Solow经济学荣誉退休教授Olivier Blanchard称该协议“完全不平等”，称“不对称的15%关税是欧盟的失败”。"When the law of the jungle prevails, the weak have little choice than to accept their fate," he wrote on X. "But Europe could potentially have been strong, either alone or in a coalition with others. It would have had to be ready for stormy waters. But it would have gotten a better deal in the end and sent a strong message to the world. An opportunity lost."“当丛林法则盛行时，弱者别无选择，只能接受自己的命运，”他在X上写道。“但欧洲本可以强大，无论是单独还是与其他国家结盟。它必须为风暴做好准备。但最终它会得到更好的协议，并向世界发出强烈的信息。失去了一个机会。”Bernard Dewit, chairman of the Belgian-Chinese Chamber of Commerce, voiced concern over the 15 percent baseline US tariff on EU goods, "particularly in light of Europe's broader economic and trade interests".比利时中国商会主席Bernard Dewit对美国对欧盟商品征收15%的基准关税表示担忧，“特别是考虑到欧洲更广泛的经济和贸易利益”。"Such a move risks escalating trans-Atlantic trade tensions and could undermine the stability and predictability that European businesses rely on," he told China Daily.他告诉《中国日报》：“此举有可能加剧跨大西洋贸易紧张局势，并可能破坏欧洲企业所依赖的稳定性和可预测性。”。"European exporters, including many in Belgium, operate in highly integrated global supply chains. The imposition of a blanket tariff will inevitably increase costs, reduce competitiveness and possibly prompt retaliatory measures — ultimately hurting consumers and small- and medium-sized enterprises on both sides of the Atlantic."“欧洲出口商，包括比利时的许多出口商，在高度一体化的全球供应链中运营。征收一揽子关税将不可避免地增加成本，降低竞争力，并可能引发报复措施，最终损害大西洋两岸的消费者和中小型企业。”Dewit urged Europe to further diversify its trade relationships. "Strengthening ties with dynamic markets such as China, ASEAN, and Africa becomes increasingly strategic," he said.德维特敦促欧洲进一步实现贸易关系多样化。他说：“加强与中国、东盟和非洲等充满活力的市场的联系变得越来越具有战略意义。”。Bernd Lange, chair of the European Parliament's Committee on International Trade, described the US-EU deal as "lopsided".欧洲议会国际贸易委员会主席贝恩德·兰格将美欧协议描述为“一边倒”。"My first assessment: not satisfactory," he wrote on X. "Concessions have clearly been made that are difficult to accept. Deal with significant imbalance."“我的第一个评估是：不令人满意，”他在X上写道。“显然已经做出了难以接受的让步。处理严重的不平衡。”According to the published details of the agreement, the EU has pledged to purchase $750 billion worth of US energy and commit an additional $600 billion in US investments.根据已公布的协议细节，欧盟已承诺购买价值7500亿美元的美国能源，并承诺向美国额外投资6000亿美元。The scale of the deal has left many European analysts stunned. Qin Yan, a principal analyst at ClearBlue Markets in Norway, told China Daily that every energy market expert she is talking with is busy calculating how much US energy the EU would need to buy to reach such a harsh number.这笔交易的规模让许多欧洲分析人士感到震惊。挪威ClearBlue Markets的首席分析师秦燕告诉《中国日报》，与她交谈的每一位能源市场专家都在忙着计算欧盟需要购买多少美国能源才能达到如此苛刻的数字。Clyde Russell, an Asia commodities and energy columnist for Reuters, noted: "Putting together the value of EU imports of US crude oil, LNG and metallurgical coal gives a 2024 total of around $64.55 billion.路透社亚洲大宗商品和能源专栏作家Clyde Russell指出：“将欧盟进口的美国原油、液化天然气和冶金煤的价值加起来，2024年的总价值约为645.5亿美元。"This is about 26 percent of the $250 billion the EU is supposed to spend on US energy a year under the framework agreement."“这大约是欧盟根据框架协议每年应在美国能源上花费2500亿美元的26%。”Qin likened the deal to "visiting a small cafe around the street corner and booking a banquet big enough for 1,000 tables of guests".秦将这笔交易比作“参观街角的一家小咖啡馆，预订一场足以容纳1000桌客人的宴会”。"My concern is that the commitment to US energy purchases should not undermine the EU's climate goal," she said.她说：“我担心的是，美国购买能源的承诺不应破坏欧盟的气候目标。”。lopsidedn.不平衡，/ˌlɒpˈsaɪdɪd/baselinen.基础/ˈbeɪslaɪn/

The long sprint weekend at Spa is in the books, and while the rain delayed the start by 90 minutes, the racing action eventually delivered—mostly. We break down all the key storylines from Belgium, including one of Lewis Hamilton's worst-performing weekends in recent memory—but credit where it's due, the recovery drive on Sunday showed flashes of the old magic. McLaren dominated yet again, locking out P2 and P3 in the Sprint, then storming to a 1-2 finish in the GP. Oscar Piastri took center stage with a bold, lap-one move in the wet that set him up for a gritty and well-deserved first win of the season. Charles Leclerc snuck back onto the podium, while Aston Martin suffered a weekend to forget, showing no pace and no progress. Despite some drama, the race itself veered dangerously close to dull—thanks to weather delays and processional racing once the track dried out. Grab a coffee (or a waffle), and let's debrief Spa.

Revenge is a dish best served cold, and for Piastri the revenge tour has officially begun.  One of the duels of the year between the McLaren men, it's advantage Oscar as we head to the almost, summer break.  Sauber are marching on, this time it's Bortoletto. Get your credit cards ready, Audi is the place to be. And Nico Rosberg was off the chain, brandish, blunt and not afraid to ask the prickly questions, do we need more of this in the modern day broadcast? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

Has Oscar Piastri regained the upper hand over McLaren teammate Lando Norris following his win at Spa? 1996 world champion Damon Hill joins Harry Benjamin to dissect a dramatic Grand Prix weekend in Belgium. They reflect on the key moments that defined the race, evaluate what it means for the balance of power at McLaren, and hear from the top three finishers. Plus, they get reaction from Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton.

First up, Ralph welcomes the co-founders of Doctors Against Genocide, Dr. Karameh Hawash-Kuemmerle and Dr. Nidal Jboor, to discuss their dedication to succeeding where global governments have failed in confronting genocide—particularly the acute genocide in Gaza. Then, Ralph speaks to Marcus Sims, who turns felled and fallen trees into sustainable-harvested lumber with his company Treincarnation. Finally, Ralph has co-written an open letter to Barack Obama, urging him to step up and do his part to fight against Donald Trump.Dr. Karameh Hawash-Kuemmerle is a clinical pediatric neurologist who specializes in traumatic brain injury and epilepsy at Boston Children's Hospital. Dr. Nidal Jboor is a doctor of internal medicine and geriatrics working in Michigan. They are co-founders of Doctors Against Genocide.We think: as American people, we are good people. We don't stand for these crimes. We don't accept that any child, any mother, any father, any elderly in the world will be starved to death—no matter where they are, no matter who they are, no matter who is committing this crime. And we are especially appalled to know that all these crimes are being done in our name, with our tax money. They are cutting the funding from our basic programs here, from our neighborhoods, to send more billions to mass slaughter children. So that's why we're going to DC. We're going to talk to the people who are enabling this. We think they already failed their constituents, they failed their country, they are putting our country on the wrong side of history.Dr. Nidal JboorAnyone who did not call this a genocide yet—and did not demand full accountability for genocide, both for the United States and for Israel—is enabling and allowing this crime to continue further.Dr. Nidal JboorWe are committed to having our eyes open whenever and wherever there is a genocide or there are war crimes, crimes against humanity—no matter who commits them. And it's very important for us to stand with the victims, with the community that is suffering, and never take the side or give a platform for the perpetrators.Dr. Karameh KuemmerleOur focus on the situation in Gaza comes from the simple fact that our country is complicit. And because of that, we actually have the moral obligation and the practical obligation to speak up. So it is not because we think that other genocides are not happening or are not important. We actually think every genocide should never happen. It's anti-human to commit genocide. And we always ask our colleagues to come to us to help uplift the voices of the communities of genocide and hopefully we will have more bandwidth to do a lot more. But the situation in Gaza is unique because there is almost a collusion of all these powerful players to complete this genocide in Gaza and basically oppress every resistance to it. There are many things that make what is happening in Gaza unique—for example, the inability to leave, using food as a weapon, having complete siege on the population, having a major superpower supported by another major superpower bombing a population of two million people in a very small area, constantly, nonstop for two years.Dr. Karameh KuemmerleAll professions have their own specialized civic duties…And I want to tell the listeners that the people who are peace-loving all over the world vastly outnumber, vastly outnumber the warmongers and the cruel and vicious interests that have taken advantage of the situation.Ralph NaderMarcus Sims is the owner of Treincarnation, which creates sustainably-harvested lumber and builds custom furniture from trees felled by storms or removed to make way for development.I think there's a lot of support for what I'm doing, but my work is contrasted to the industrial lumber system, which is “chop them down and cut them up,” a lot of it done by huge machines. So it takes a lot more attention and care to do the kind of work that I'm doing. And of course the finances—as you know, finances play a big part in any kind of industry and how they can manage to make money. So I'm certainly making a living, a good living with what I'm doing. I don't know exactly how we can get from the current system into one that was probably used in the past, where the intelligence of human beings is more engaged and we're not slaves to industrial processes.Marcus SimsNews 7/25/25* This week, Israel shelled the Holy Family Church in Gaza. During the last months of his life, Pope Francis was in constant communication with this church and its pastor, Father Gabriel Romanelli, calling them every single night. Three people were killed in this strike and Father Romanelli was injured, as were other congregants. In a speech after the strike, Pope Leo called for an immediate ceasefire and decried the “barbarity of war,” Reuters reports. He added, "I appeal to the international community to observe humanitarian law and respect the obligation to protect civilians as well as the prohibition of collective punishment, of indiscriminate use of force and forced displacement of the population.” According to the National Catholic Reporter, Pope Leo XIV spoke with Palestinian president Mahmood Abbas following this attack and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu called to “express Israel's regret for what he called an accidental attack.”2. In Belgium, the Hind Rajab Foundation – named for the five-year-old girl in Gaza killed along with six of her family members and the paramedics coming to her rescue – reports, “Belgian federal police have arrested and interrogated two Israeli soldiers credibly accused of war crimes in Gaza. The action came in response to an urgent legal complaint filed by the Hind Rajab Foundation and the Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) earlier this week.” The soldiers, who had come to Belgium to attend the Tomorrowland music festival were, “formally interrogated and released. The Belgian Federal Prosecutor's Office has confirmed that a criminal investigation is now underway.”3. In a shameful, undemocratic move, the Executive Committee of the National Education Association has voted to reject the member-approved resolution to boycott materials promulgated by the ADL, Axios reports. This helps keep the ADL entrenched as the arbiter of what is and is not antisemitism, a charge they have weaponized and used as a cudgel again and again to silence any criticism of the state of Israel.4. In New York, disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo continues to campaign in his increasingly long-shot independent bid for Mayor of New York City. Recently, Cuomo held a campaign breakfast attended by 450 at the Hampton Synagogue, where he said, “I would wager that in the primary, more than 50% of the Jewish people voted for Mamdani.” If true, this would be a stunning victory not only for Zohran himself but for the pro-Palestine movement, which has been maligned in bad faith as antisemitic. Cuomo added that many younger Jewish voters are, “pro-Palestinian, and they don't consider it being anti-Israel.” This from the Forward.5. Another intra-ethnic cleavage is emerging among voters in New York City – this time, Italian-Americans. While Mamdani visited Uganda, the country of his birth, anti-Zohran Italians rallied in front of his Assembly district office in Queens. The New York Times reports this protest, “ostensibly led by the Italian American Civil Rights League, a group that took its name from but had no apparent ties to a defunct organization founded by [Mafia boss] Joseph A. Colombo Sr,...until recently, when Mr. Colombo's grandson, Anthony E. Colombo Jr….joined the group's board in May.” As the Times notes, this protest was held in response to a, “recently resurfaced social media photo from 2020 showing Mr. Mamdani giving the middle finger to a Columbus statue.” However, a large group of pro-Zohran Italian-American counterprotestors rallied across the street, carrying signs that read “Paisans for Zohran!” and “You Eat Jar Sauce!”6. In Minneapolis, many are drawing parallels between Mamdani and insurgent Democratic Socialist candidate Omar Fateh, who won the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party's endorsement for the mayoralty over incumbent Jacob Frey. Fateh, a state senator, won “at least 60% of the Minneapolis DFL delegate vote Saturday…in the party's first endorsement of a mayoral candidate in 16 years,” per the Minnesota Star Tribune. This endorsement gives Fateh a major boost in his campaign and indicates that the Zohran phenomenon is not confined to New York City.7. Last week, Paramount – one of the largest media conglomerates and parent company of CBS – canceled The Late Show with Stephen Colbert less than 48 hours after Colbert called CBS News's $16 million settlement with Trump a, “big fat bribe,” implying it would help curry favor with the administration regarding the proposed merger between Paramount and Skydance. Incensed, the Writers Guild of America East issued a statement calling on New York State Attorney General Letitia James, to, “launch an investigation into potential wrongdoing at Paramount…[and for]…our elected leaders to hold those responsible to account…demand answers about why this beloved program was canceled and to assure the public that Colbert and his writers were not censored due to their views or the whims of the President.”8. At the same time, CNN reports Paramount's “owner-in-waiting,” David Ellison is in talks to acquire Bari Weiss's publication The Free Press. According to the Financial Times, Weiss is seeking over $200 million for the purchase. However, this goes further than a potential acquisition. Puck reports that if brought in, Weiss would serve as an “ideological guide” for CBS News. This, paired with the recent piece in the Hollywood Reporter stating that Skydance “promised to eliminate all diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives,” at Paramount, gives a fuller picture of the “anti-woke” direction CBS would take under the new leadership. With news Thursday that federal regulators have approved the merger, it seems fair to conclude that these moves mollified the president.9. Turning to Latin America, AP reports the U.S., Venezuela and El Salvador have successfully concluded an intricate tripartite prisoner exchange. This deal includes the release of 10 Americans jailed in Venezuela and 252 Venezuelans held in El Salvador's notorious and dystopian CECOT prison complex. The freed Americans include some who were accused of participating in a U.S.-backed coup attempt against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in 2024 and one who was convicted of a triple homicide in Madrid, according to EL PAÍS. All parties seem satisfied with this agreement, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying “Every wrongfully detained American in Venezuela is now free and back in our homeland,” while President Maduro pronounced the occasion “a day of blessings and good news…the perfect day for Venezuela.”10. Finally, prominent British tech writer Ed Zitron is out with “The Hater's Guide To The AI Bubble.” In this piece, Zitron – a noted critic of AI writ large – details tech companies' expenditures on AI as compared to the revenues, and the numbers are stark. Microsoft has reaped $13 billion, with $10 billion from OpenAI, sold at “a heavily discounted rate that essentially only covers costs for operating the servers," while expenditures total $80 billion. Amazon AI revenues In 2025 amount to $5 billion, while capital expenditures total $105 billion. Google AI revenue stands at $7.7 billion, with capital expenditures standing at $75 billion. Meta AI revenue in 2025 is a paltry $2-3 billion. Their capital expenditures: $72 billion. Perhaps most deliciously, while Tesla has spent around $11 billion on AI in 2025, the company “Does Not Appear To Make Money From Generative AI” at all. Hopefully these numbers serve as a wakeup call for companies to stop dumping money down the AI drain, since clearly the immense adverse impact on the environment is not dissuading them.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

John discusses Tulsi Gabbard who used the White House Press Briefing to uncork her Obama/Russia conspiracy – accusing the former President of trying to preventing Donald Trump from winning the 2016 election. He also talks about President Macron of France filing a defamation suit against right-wing grifter supreme Candace Owens, who has repeatedly claimed Mrs. Macron was transgender. And speaking of France, he also discusses U.S. funded contraceptives worth nearly $10 million being sent to France from Belgium to be incinerated, after Washington rejected offers from the United Nations and family planning organizations to buy or ship the supplies to poor nations. Then, podcast star Bob Cesca is back to joke about Trump, Epstein, and of course Star Trek. And winding it up, The God Squad = Desimber Rose and Dillon Cruz return to talk about the intersection of religion and politics.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
