F1TV expert and six-time IndyCar race winner, James Hinchcliffe, joins Tom Clarkson to preview this weekend's Las Vegas Grand Prix. Lando Norris leads Oscar Piastri at the top of the World Championship by 24 points. With three races and one F1 Sprint to go, there are still 83 up for grabs. So how will Lando and Oscar approach this triple header? Hinch shares his thoughts on the mindset of both McLaren drivers and tells Tom why it's still all to play for despite Lando's advantage. Max Verstappen is now 49 points adrift of Lando but, while his title hopes look slim, will he and Red Bull still be fighting for wins and have a say in the championship outcome? Plus, Ferrari have been on the Vegas podium two years in a row. Could this be the track where they score a first Grand Prix win of the season? After their double DNF in Brazil, Ferrari chairman John Elkann said Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc need to ‘talk less and focus on driving'. How does Hinch think those comments will impact the team?

Before she became the CEO of a bookkeeping firm, Roxanne Ferrari struggled with sales and was terrified of anything related to marketing. But she managed to unlock her leadership skills and tap into her confident self through the Abundant Accountant's eight-week sales mastery course. She joins Michelle Weinstein to share how she went out of her comfort zone and trusted the process, which ultimately led to the foundation of Ferrari Bookkeeping Services and numerous financial wins. Roxanne also underlines how to achieve business success without sacrificing your personal life and the importance of being confident – and comfortable – with your own professional rates.
C'est une petite phrase qui a eu l'effet d'une bombe de l'autre côté des Alpes. John Elkann, héritier du groupe Agnelli et grand patron du groupe Exor (propriétaire de Ferrari) a exhorté ses pilotes à "moins parler" et "plus se concentrer sur leur pilotage" en marge de la signature d'un contrat entre le groupe Stellantis et les Jeux de Milan Cortina, ce lundi. Des propos qui selon le Corriere della Serra viserait en réalité Lewis Hamilton, "la lune de miel est terminée" selon Daniele Sparisci. Entre colère des tifosi, vexation des pilotes, pression sur le management, Elkann a-t-il commis une erreur stratégique ou fait passer un message nécessaire ? Ferrari renoue-t-elle avec ses vieux démons ? Déjà sous pression pour 2026 ? Avant le GP de Las Vegas, l'équipe de chroniqueurs de Pole Position vous propose un petit tour des cotes à J-7.

Harry Benjamin and the BBC's F1 correspondent Andrew Benson discuss the state of the championship battle and Ferrari's struggles.

What do a CrossFit gym, a frozen yogurt shop, and an ice cream parlor have in common? Jay Vigilante. This week, the Blue Collar Twins, Jason and Jeremy Julio, sit down with the serial entrepreneur who proves that saying “yes” and figuring it out later can build a life most people only dream about. From overcoming addiction in his early twenties to owning three thriving businesses on the Jersey Shore, Jay's story is raw, real, and relentlessly motivating. He shares how community, creativity, and curiosity became his secret weapons — turning a struggling gym, a $30,000 yogurt shop, and a for-rent ice cream store into profitable, family-run operations. Jay opens up about the power of second chances, the stress of employees, and why his definition of success has nothing to do with Ferraris — and everything to do with family, freedom, and fun.

Ferrari is burning hot, and John Elkann just threw gasoline on the fire. After a disastrous Brazilian GP, he publicly called out Leclerc and Hamilton: "Talk less, focus on driving." But what was he really hoping to achieve? Is this tough-love leadership… or buyers remorse for bringing Hamilton into the chaos? On Formula: America, we break down:
Andiamo a Torino prima per le ATP Finals, con Sinner che conquista la semifinale battendo Zverev e poi per una visita a casa Conte che si è preso una settimana di riposo nella sua residenza sotto la Mole per superare gli ultimi giorni di stress. Ne parliamo con Stefano Meloccaro di Sky Sport e con Antonio Giordano della Gazzetta dello Sport.C'era una volta il Cavallo del West, oggi c'è il Cavallino del WEC, quello della Ferrari alla quale basta il quarto posto della 499P n°51 di Alessandro Pier Guidi, James Calado e Antonio Giovinazzi per conquistare il mondiale piloti, oltre a quello costruttori della classe Hypercar. Insieme a Roberto Lacorte di Cetilar Racing e a Gionata Ferroni, abbiamo convocato uno dei protagonisti del trionfo Rosso del Bahrain, Alessandro Pier Guidi.

Text us a pool question!In this powerful conclusion to the two-part episode Clear Water Can Still Kill, Natalie Hood and Dewey Case pull back the curtain on the myths that continue to plague both residential and commercial pool operations. From chlorine “smell” misconceptions to Airbnb water safety, they challenge everything we think we know about clean, safe, and healthy pool water.Dewey explains why clear doesn't always mean clean—and why that faint haze, that “smells clean” comment, or that once-a-week test schedule could spell serious trouble. Natalie takes it a step further, sharing real-world stories of visiting family pools that reeked of combined chlorine, and why that chemical sting is the ultimate red flag for poor air and water management.Together, they break down:Why public spas can be a microbiological minefield (and why Dewey won't get in them)The shocking truth about short-term pool rentals and backyard “pool sharing” appsWhy HOAs testing once a week isn't just lazy—it's dangerousThe right testing frequency for both homeowners and pool prosWhy water testing at the pool store days later is absolutely not okayHow education and continuing certification separate the pros from the pretendersAnd why a commercial pool isn't just a “big backyard pool”—it's a Ferrari compared to a FordDewey and Natalie wrap with a reality check: certification is just your driver's license. The real work is what comes after—continuous education, field experience, and doing the job right even when no one's watching.Key Quote:“Be better.

We may be a day late, but the throttle's still wide open. This week, we're unpacking every wild moment from the 2025 Brazilian Grand Prix — from Oscar Piastri's controversial penalty that had the paddock in flames, to Max Verstappen's unstoppable charge from last to the podium. Ollie Bearman continues his late-season climb toward greatness, putting Haas right back in the headlines.We'll also react to Ferrari chairman John Elkann's spicy new quote that “drivers who talk too much need to focus on driving and talk less,” and what that says about the state of the Scuderia. Then, it's on to Vegas and the home stretch of the championship — predictions, chaos, and whatever's left of our sanity as we head into the final rounds of 2025.It's The Fast Ones — equal parts speed, sarcasm, and serious F1 talk.

Welcome to our motorsports podcast where we discuss F1, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR, our own racing adventures, and some other adventures!Lando Norris sweeps the Sprint Weekend in Brazil as Piastri has another pitiful race. Verstappen was the star of the race, however, as he put in an impressive performance to finish on the podium after starting from the pit lane.Toyota finished it's WEC season off with a 1-2 finish in Bahrain. This was not only their first win on the season but their first podium finish this year! Ferrari captured both the Driver's and Manufacturer's titles in Hypercar. In GT3, it was Manthey Porsche #92 who claimed the Driver's and Team's championships.We also discuss some news and notes that unfolded over the past week as well!Coming up this weekend: Macau Grand Prix, MotoGP in Valencia, and Supercars are at Sandown.
Max Verstappen salió desde el pit-lane en Brasil y acabó subiendo al podio, pero esa gran remontada no fue suficiente para recortar puntos en su lucha por el mundial. Lando Norris, en modo campeón, volvió a marcarse un fin de semana perfecto que le asienta en la cima de la clasificación. Entre esos dos se coló Andrea Kimi Antonelli con el Mercedes, logrando el mejor resultado de su carrera en la Fórmula 1. Mientras tanto, los dos Ferrari abandonaban, dejando el subcampeonato de constructores muy de cara para los alemanes. Fin de semana para olvidar de Sainz y Alonso, aunque este último logró rascar 3 puntos en la Sprint. Franco Colapinto sigue sin puntuar, a pesar de su renovación con Alpine.

Partiamo subito da Torino con Massimo Calandri, inviato di Repubblica alle ATP Finals che ieri hanno visto il debutto felice di Sinner e quello meno felice di Musetti. In questa puntata parliamo anche di dichiarazioni importanti di Presidenti: da quelle di De Laurentiis che smentisce qualsiasi voce di dimissioni di Conte, a quelle pesanti di John Elkann rivolte ai piloti Ferrari che dovrebbero "parlare meno e pensare a guidare". Ne parliamo con Pierpaolo Marino e Leo Turrini. Iniziamo il countdown verso le Olimpiadi di Milano-Cortina 2026 insieme a un grande ospite come Kristian Ghedina: a che punto siamo con la preparazione dei Giochi?

F1TV lead commentator Alex Jacques and Brazilian commentator Felipe Giaffone join Tom Clarkson in the Interlagos paddock to analyse an eventful race in Brazil. Converting two pole positions into Grand Prix and Sprint wins, Lando Norris produced a perfect weekend to move 24 points clear of teammate Oscar Piastri at the top of the standings. With just three rounds left of the 2025 season, does Lando have one hand on the title now? What did Alex and Felipe make of Oscar's 10-second penalty? And how will the Australian be feeling after losing more ground in the championship? After his sensational win from P17 in Sao Paulo last year, Max Verstappen fought back in emphatic style again – this time from the pitlane to P3. How did he and Red Bull execute that incredible comeback after such a difficult qualifying session? Despite that remarkable recovery, Max lost more ground on Lando, but did close the gap to Oscar, so where do his hopes of becoming a five-time World Champion this season lie now? Plus, the guys also reflect on impressive performances from Kimi Antonelli, Ollie Bearman and Liam Lawson, a challenging first home race for Gabriel Bortoleto, and a very disappointing double DNF for Ferrari.

NORRIS BEGINS NAILING THE FINAL NAILS IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP!...PIASTRI LOOSING INTEREST…MAX DRIVER OF THE DAY AND...FERNANDO READY FOR LAS VEGAS. THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER, WE KEEP IT SIMPLE WITH SOME DUKE OF DIJON AND NASIR BANTER! It was a dominant performance from Lando Norris as he claimed his seventh victory of the year, following up on his victory in the sprint race with another 25 points on Sunday, extending his championship lead to 24 points over Oscar Piastri. Early race incidents would leave Oscar Piastri with a shock penalty and lead to the retirement of Charles Leclerc through no fault of his own. And in unexpected fashion, Max Verstappen would grab fans' attention following his conversion of a pit-lane start all the way to a P3 finish, grabbing a podium on a day many fans would expect his championship shot to slip away from him. None of the top ten were able to get past each other in the initial portion of Lap 1 except Liam Lawson on George Russell, with Lewis Hamilton's Ferrari having the weakest start of any on the grid, dropping four places into 17th. A loss of control from home favorite Gabriel Bortoleto in the Sauber occurred only halfway through the first lap, causing the 21-year-old to hit the barriers, bringing out a safety car and ending his race. The safety car was brought out for the third time in a row at the Brazilian Grand Prix, lasting for three laps and coming in on Lap 4. There was more chaos immediately, as Charles Leclerc, Kimi Antonelli and Oscar Piastri went three abreast at Turn 1 after the Italian struggled to keep up with Lando Norris' pace following the restart. Piastri and Antonelli would collide, sending the Mercedes into Leclerc's Ferrari and causing the Monegasque racer to lose both a tire and incur suspension damage, ending his race prematurely. Unable to continue, Leclerc's Ferrari would pull over and bring out a Virtual Safety Car, with the McLarens of Norris and Piastri leading from the Mercedes of Antonelli and the Racing Bull of Isack Hadjar. Laps 14 and 17 would see ten-second penalties applied for both Yuki Tsunoda and Oscar Piastri, with Tsunoda's given for an incident with Lance Stroll and Piastri's for the aforementioned crash after the safety car restart. Verstappen, who had taken an early pit stop to change from hard tires to mediums, found himself up to seventh by Lap 19 thanks to Hadjar and Pierre Gasly entering the pit lane. Seventh turned into fifth by Lap 21, the Dutchman having gained 15 places in the first third of the race and looking impressive as he looked to restore his championship ambitions. LANDO: “It was an amazing race, and it's nice to win here in Brazil. It's an amazing track with amazing fans. This one was for one of my mentors, Gil, I hope he'd be very proud. “It was a great win, but to be honest, seeing how quick the competition was today, it's clear we've still got work to do. I'll go back, see the team, congratulate them and see what we can do better. Looking ahead, I'll keep focusing on myself, keep my head down, ignore the noise and keep pushing.” MAX: From pitlane to podium, this weekend has completely turned around for me, something that I didn't think was possible. The start of the race was very hectic and I picked up a puncture early on from a load of debris on the track which meant that I pretty much had to start the race again. The Team used the right strategy from start to finish which allowed me to get through all of the traffic very efficiently. I definitely had to send it a few times to get past the other cars but I love doing that and ended up having an unexpectedly fun race. Overall it showed that we had really good pace today and that the grip was much better than the last couple of days. The atmosphere at Interlagos was amazing and it really spurred me on. I am so proud of the Team and would like to thank them for all of the hard work that they put into making the changes post Quali last night. SAO PAULO, BRAZIL - NOVEMBER 09: Race winner Lando Norris of Great Britain and McLaren Second placed Andrea Kimi Antonelli of Italy and Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team Third placed Max Verstappen of the Netherlands and Oracle Red Bull Racing and Mark Norris, Director of Commercial Trackside Operations at McLaren on the podium during the F1 Grand Prix of Brazil at Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace on November 09, 2025 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. (Photo by Mark Thompson/Getty Images) We kept pushing and took multiple risks this weekend because we never want to settle for second and we didn't give up. To start in the pitlane and finish P3 on the podium only 10 seconds off P1 was incredible. Now all we can do is keep fighting hard over the final few races of the season and do the best that we possibly can whilst trying to find as much performance as we can extract from the car. A huge congratulations to Kimi as well, he drove amazingly well which will have given his confidence a huge boost which is great for any rookie!" Alex Albon: It was a good race for the fans today but unfortunately for us it was a bit of a race to forget. We had good pace when we could show it. We've struggled with pace all weekend but seem to have recovered a little bit today. In the end what took us out of contention for points was that I think we stayed out too long on the first stint and we never really recovered from there. In the last stint we were quick and were fighting our way back up the grid and just missed out on a point at the end. It's frustrating that our rivals scored points today, but we will regroup and look forward to a better weekend in Las Vegas. Carlos Sainz: Not the day I was hoping for. Once I got squeezed on turn 1, I had considerable damage to the car and my race was compromised from there. We managed to stay in the hunt for points most of the race but after a slow first stop and compiled with the damage, that was it unfortunately. Time to go back home and see what we can do in these types of circuits, as Qatar will also be a challenge. A few races to go, so we cannot relax. Let's keep going.

Lando Norris with his champions' drive, Max Verstappen with yet another masterclass in Brazil consecutively, and Kimi Antonelli coming on his own on the podium at Interlagos. A race start full of incidents, and a race that entertained all the way till the final lap. Ferrari's double DNF made headlines, but not so much as John Elkann's unnecessary statement about Charles Leclerc & Lewis Hamilton "talking more" rather than focusing on driving. Did Andrea Kimi Antonelli deserve a penalty for his part in the Oscar Piastri tangle? Liam Lawson's "defensive masterclass" to make his 1-stopper work and lots more stories from Interlagos.

My guest today is Luca Ferrari. Luca is the co-founder and CEO of Bending Spoons, which he describes as 25 percent private equity and 75 percent technology company. Founded in 2013, Bending Spoons fully acquires and operates digital companies like Evernote, Meetup, Vimeo, and most recently AOL. Our conversation explores the unique model behind Bending Spoons, and the culture required to scale it. Luca shares exactly how their acquisition playbook works – from identifying promising businesses to rebuilding every part of them across product, design, monetization, and marketing. We discuss their approach to financing long-term ownership through both debt and equity, Luca's obsession with finding and developing exceptional talent, and his decision to build the company in Europe. I found Luca's description of himself as perennially unhappy to be the clearest window into how he builds. It's a mindset that fuels his pursuit of excellence and defines the culture at Bending Spoons. Please enjoy my conversation with Luca Ferrari.
