Episode Show Notes: May 22, 2025 Welcome to the Scuderia F1 Podcast! Tonight we're recapping the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix weekend was a thrilling and controversial affair, ignited by Lando Norris's sensational pole position, narrowly edging out Charles Leclerc. However, the grid was dramatically reshaped by multiple penalties, notably Lewis Hamilton's three-place drop due to an "inaccurate radio message" leading to impeding Max Verstappen, and Lance Stroll's cumulative demotion to the very back. Race day saw Norris convert his pole into a commanding victory, marking his first Monaco win and second of the season, contributing to a fantastic double podium for McLaren. The drama continued with early incidents like Gabriel Bortoleto hitting the wall and Pierre Gasly colliding with Yuki Tsunoda, highlighting Monaco's unforgiving nature. Adding to the controversy, George Russell received a drive-through penalty for skipping the Nouvelle Chicane and controversially ignoring team advice to return the position, claiming Alex Albon was driving "erratically". The new mandatory two-pit stop rule also sparked debate, with drivers like Carlos Sainz calling the race "manipulated" and Max Verstappen stating it "didn't do anything" for racing at the front, ultimately shifting chaos to strategic manipulation rather than on-track overtakes.

La noticia que todos estábamos esperando se ha producido por fin: Flavio Briatore ha dado un golpe de estado en Alpine, se ha hecho con las riendas del equipo y ha colocado a Franco Colapinto en el asiento de Doohan. El argentino tendrá 5 carreras para demostrar lo que vale y luego ya veremos qué pasa. Por supuesto, analizamos también el Gran Premio al Sprint de Miami, que quizás fue más entretenido de lo que todos esperábamos. McLaren volvió a dominar, con Piastri de nuevo ejerciendo de piloto número uno. La Williams de Carlos Sainz hizo una carrera espectacular y la Aston Martin de Alonso se hundió totalmente. Gracias por escucharnos y ¡¡Keep Pushing!!

¡Tras el grandioso éxito de “coches que me asustaron” ahora llega la segunda entrega “coches que me decepcionaron”! Bromas aparte me comprometo a una cosa: Estoy seguro que esta lista os va a sorprender más… algunos coches no os lo esperáis, pero… ¡tengo argumentos! Y, por cierto, que en este vídeo tenemos invitado de lujo: Nuestro especialista de cabecera, Jaime Sánchez y su “consultorio clásico” … no os lo perdáis. De vuelta a nuestra lista me he centrado en modelos que me decepcionaron especialmente por sus por sus prestaciones o su mecánica… habrá más oportunidades para otros casos. Y sobre todo en los años 80 y 90 que es mi etapa más intensa como probador. Nunca he dejado de probar coches, pero en estos años, creedme, los probaba todos y muy a fondo. Vaya por delante una advertencia: Los coches que aparecen en esta lista no es que sean malos… ¡ni muchos menos! Aunque algunos no eran de lo mejor en su momento. Simplemente me decepcionaron por diversos motivos que, por supuesto, os contaré. En ocasiones ha sido culpa mía, que esperaba demasiado de ellos. Siempre, antes de probar un coche, me “empapo” de sus características técnicas y datos oficiales. Confieso que tenía mi “sistema”: Nunca leía pruebas de otros antes de escribir la mía. Es cierto, y perdonar esta inmodestia, que en el grupo editorial donde estaba y gracias al esfuerzo de todos nadie, pero nadie, ningún periodista, probaba un coche en España antes que nosotros. Pero sí alguno en el extranjero. Los franceses probaban antes que nosotros los coches franceses, los italianos los fabricados en Italia y los alemanes, los “Made in Germany” … y como nosotros no teníamos industria propia nunca éramos los primeros… ni con Seat. Esto de no leer nada del coche que iba aprobar lo sigo haciendo ahora en todo lo que escribo. Sí, busco datos e informaciones, pero nunca algo que pueda ser parecido a lo que voy a contar… ¿Por qué? Porque soy de la opinión que, incluso aunque no quieras, te “contaminas”. A veces me pasa que después sí lo leo u oigo y pienso que me he equivocado… rara vez… o que podía haberlo hecho mejor… esto siempre. Vamos ya a hablar de coches. 1. Porsche 924 (1976). El más antiguo de estos 10+1 y que probé antes de dedicarme profesionalmente a esto… ¡iba a probar mi primer Porsche! … ¿Y qué sucedió? Que me pareció poco para llevar ese nombre. El motor 2 litros de origen Audi-VW daba 125 CV para unos 1.100 kg… 2. Ford Scorpio 2.8 (1985). Este ya lo probe como profesional. Conocía la versión 2.0 del Scorpio, que iba bien, pero estaba falta de motor, y también conocía el motor 2.8i de Ford, que no daba muchos caballos, pero eran caballos de calidad. Y pensé que la combinación de ambos iba a ser ganadora… pero no. 3. VW Golf 16V (1985). Ya había probado y conocía el Golf MKI con motor de 16 válvulas… y ya sabía que ese motor estaba falto de bajos y que no era desde luego un motor “redondo”. Pero, no sé por qué, esperaba que para el MKII VW hiciese algo… pero no lo hizo. 4. VW Corrado G60 (1989). ¡No me gusta el compresor G! Lo siento, pero es así. La primera vez que probé el motor de 1.781 cm3 con 8 válvulas y compresor G fue en el Corrado… y el coche me gustó, pero el motor no. Y eso que no sabía la de problemas que iba a dar el dichoso compresor. 5. Bugatti EB110 (1991). Sí, corría mucho… pero no era un Bugatti de verdad. Y es que los Bugatti originales eran coches ligeros y relativamente simples dentro de su sofisticación. Y este EB110, que se llama así porque se presentó 110 años después del nacimiento de Ettore, no era nada de eso. 6. Renault Clio 16V (1991). Una sucesión verdaderamente difícil, la del Supercinco GT Turbo. Se puede decir que el Clio 16V era mejor en todo… menos en sensaciones y en prestaciones… nada menos. Luego vino el Williams y lo arreglo todo. 7. Audi Coupé 2.2 16V (1991). Me refiero a la generación denominada B3 aparecida en 1989. Pero la versión concreta de la que os hablo apareció en 1991. El primero que probé era el 2.2 de 5 cilindros y 20 válvulas. Si hacéis números, era el motor del VW Golf 16 válvulas multiplicado por 0,25. No, no se subía la cilindrada, sino que se añadía un cilindro más. No era tan decepcionante como el motor del Golf… lo era más. 8. Toyota Celica GT-Four “Carlos Sainz” (1992). ¡El coche de Carlos Sainz! ¡Hasta con su firma! Pero no corría nada. Sí, anunciaba 208 CV y un buen par entre las 3.200 y las 4.800 rpm… todo eso sobre el papel. Pero no sé si por el sistema de tracción total, por las normas anti polución o por el peso de 1.500 kg, la sensación que tenías era que el coche no corría. Sobre todo, si te bajabas de un Ford Escort Cosworth o de un Lancia Delta Integrale… no solo era una sensación. Las cifras de prestaciones demostraban que era una realidad. 9. Ferrari F50 (1995). 10 años después que el F40, el F50 ofrecía 42 CV más, un motor que requería subir mucho de vueltas y un peso mucho mayor. Y en cuanto a estética el F50 no es feo, pero parce como “blandito” comparado al F40. Resultado, me decepciono. Pero no debí ser el único decepcionado, porque solo se hicieron 349. 10. Lotus Elise (1996). El coche era bonito, pequeño con 3,72 m de longitud y 1,20 m de altura y con un peso de apenas 800 kg. Pero el motor era un 1,8 litros con 120 CV… De nuevo recurro a mi madre, con una frase suya: “Mucho pan para tan poco queso”. Bonus Track: Mazda RX8 (2003). Y el motor ofrecía 231 CV que había que ir a buscarlos a las 8.500 rpm. Lo he probado en circuito y el coche es divertido, tienes que ir siempre con el motor por encima de las 6.000 rpm. Pero en el día a día, es un engorro, si vas tranquilo, vas lento, y si quieres ir con cierto dinamismo, requiere una conducción casi “al ataque”… Conclusión. Una pregunta, ¿os ha sorprendido alguno de estos coches? Estoy seguro de que sí. Insisto, para nada son malos, no me importaría nada tener muchos de ellos, pero en su momento me defraudaron porque esperaba más. De hecho, muchos de ellos, como los VW Golf y Corrado, el Audi, el Lotus o el Scorpio, tuvieron motorizaciones más acordes con el modelo.

Tom Clarkson is joined in the paddock by F1TV lead presenter, Laura Winter, and French F1 journalist for L'Equipe, Fred Ferret, to dissect an action-packed Miami Grand Prix. Oscar Piastri's fourth win of the season means he now leads McLaren teammate Lando Norris by 16 points at the top of the World Championship. So, after a mega battle with the reigning champion for P1, is Oscar the new Max Verstappen? Even though Lando lost more ground in the title race, was this weekend a step in the right direction for the Brit? And after his sensational pole lap and defensive masterclass against the McLarens, will being a father actually make Verstappen an even better driver?  Kimi Antonelli became the youngest polesitter in any format in F1 history with his Sprint pole and outqualified George Russell for the first time this season. How have Mercedes 'nurtured' the 18-year-old to settle into Formula 1 so smoothly? Elsewhere, Williams secured a double points finish for the second race in a row. Why were they quicker than Ferrari in Miami? Alex Albon joins the pod to share great insight into how he bounced back from his penalty in F1 Sprint and why there was some confusion over team orders between himself and Carlos Sainz. Plus, speaking of team orders, what did Laura and Fred think of how Ferrari managed their strategy with Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton? 

Er hat es wieder getan! Oscar Piastri siegt beim Großen Preis von Miami nach einem unnachahmlichen Manöver gegen Max Verstappen, der mit seinen eigenen Waffen geschlagen wurde. Ebenfalls geschlagen geben musste sich Lando Norris, dessen Abstand auf Piastri in der WM wächst und wächst und wächst. Kevin Scheuren und Dennis Lewandowski analysieren das Sprintwochenende und sprechen wie immer nach den #F1-Rennen über Gewinner und Verlierer. Diesmal u.a. dabei: Mercedes, Ferrari, Aston Martin und Jack Doohan. Dazu gibts einen Talk darüber, was die Jungs von Cadillac F1 in der Formel 1 am Lenkrad erwarten. Viel Spaß mit dieser Ausgabe!

El formato Sprint de la F1 regresa este fin de semana en el circuito (o algo así) de Miami. Es una pista que nos genera poca ilusión, pero a falta de una carrera tendremos dos. Por allí estará también, por cierto, Checo Pérez. Comentamos por último la presentación oficial del MadRing, el nuevo circuito de la capital de España. El asfalto rojo y una vuelta virtual que podría haber firmado cualquiera de nosotros, han sido las principales polémicas. Gracias por escucharnos y ¡¡Keep Pushing!!

El GP de Arabia Saudí nos ha dado una carrera bastante entretenida y con cierta lucha por la victoria. Oscar Piastri y Max Verstappen tuvieron sus más y sus menos en la primera curva, para finalmente ser el australiano el que se hizo con la victoria en Yeda. El podio lo completó Charles Leclerc con una estrategia a la contra que funcionó a la perfección. Norris hizo lo que pudo tras su desastroso sábado, Hamilton sigue sin dar con la tecla y Carlos Sainz completó su mejor carrera con Williams. Por su parte, Fernando Alonso sigue esperando las mejoras para su Aston Martin. Gracias por escucharnos y ¡¡Keep Pushing!!

Mark Mann-Bryans and Filip Cleeren wrap-up their coverage of the 2025 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix with reviewing a race that started with a controversial Lap 1 flashpoint. The pair discuss Max Verstappen cutting the opening chicane, the five second time penalty that may have cost him a chance at victory, and the Dutchman's muted reaction to the punishment, while praising Oscar Piastri for another measured victory. There's also a discussion on Lando Norris' recovery drive from tenth to fourth, Charles Leclerc extracting everything from his Ferrari to score the team's first GP podium of 2025, and Williams getting both cars in the points, with Carlos Sainz leading their charge.

En Sakhir rugió la pista, bajo el sol y la arena, los bólidos se alistaron para una carrera buena. Oscar Piastri, cual rayo veloz, desde la pole partió y mostró su feroz. Con McLaren en llamas, el australiano brilló, ni el Safety Car ni el calor lo detuvo, y triunfó. George Russell, con problemas en su Mercedes fiel, sin DRS ni frenos, defendió su papel. Lando Norris, con penalización en la salida, remontó con garra y terminó la corrida. Tercero en el podio, su liderato mantuvo, aunque Piastri, su compañero, ya lo tuvo. Leclerc y Hamilton, en Ferrari lucharon, pero el podio, esta vez, no alcanzaron. Verstappen, en su Red Bull, sufrió sin cesar, sexto terminó, sin mucho que celebrar. Carlos Sainz, en Williams, tuvo un día fatal, un toque con Tsunoda y adiós al pedal. Fernando Alonso, en Aston Martin, sin suerte, decimosexto cruzó, lejos de la fuerte. Así fue Baréin, con drama y emoción, donde Piastri reinó con determinación. La Fórmula 1 sigue su danza veloz, rumbo a Arabia Saudí, con rugido atroz.

Lando Norris está fallando mucho en este inicio del mundial de Fórmula 1 y Oscar Piastri está aprovechando la oportunidad para erigirse como el líder del equipo McLaren. En Baréin, el piloto australiano hizo una carrera perfecta, sin errores y sin que nadie le pudiese luchar la victoria. Ya está a sólo 3 puntos de liderar el campeonato. El que sufrió más de la cuenta fue Max Verstappen, que sólo pudo ser 6º en una carrera llena de problemas por todas partes. Tampoco le fue bien a los españoles, ya que Carlos Sainz fue embestido por Tsunoda y Fernando Alonso por el tractor de Aston Martin. Gracias por escucharnos y ¡¡Keep Pushing!!
