Can Lando Norris make it three wins on the bounce? Rosanna Tennant, Harry Benjamin and Alice Powell look back at qualifying from Las Vegas and ask whether the McLaren driver can turn pole into a race win. They hear from him, as well Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz who make up the podium. Plus, Oscar Piastri reflects on another underwhelming day.
Lando Norris hat unter schwierigsten Bedingungen die Pole-Position in Las Vegas erobert. Der WM-Leader war im nassen Qualifying der schnellste Pilot. Für den McLaren-Piloten war es die 16. Pole-Position seiner Karriere und die dritte in Folge. Formel-1-Weltmeister Max Verstappen wurde Zweiter. Der Red-Bull-Pilot wahrte damit eine Mini-Chance im Kampf um den Titel. Im Rennen muss er aber an Norris einen Weg vorbeifinden. Die Sensation des Qualifyings des Grand Prix von Las Vegas war Carlos Sainz, der im Williams Dritter wurde. Vorjahressieger und Top-Favorit George Russell kam im Mercedes nicht über Platz vier hinaus. Immerhin bezwang er noch Oscar Piastri. Der zweite McLaren-Pilot erlitt erneut einen Rückschlag im Titelkampf. Wie Verstappen steht der Australier nach der Zeitenjagd mit dem Rücken zur Wand. Die größte Enttäuschung Las Vegas war aber Lewis Hamilton. Das erste Mal wurde der Rekordsieger selbstverschuldet Letzter in einem Qualifying. Die Ferrari-Ehe hat damit einen neuen Tiefpunkt erreicht. Wir wollen von euch wissen, was eure positiven sowie negativen Überraschungen der Qualifikation von Las Vegas waren? Glaubt ihr, Lando Norris ist der Titel noch zu nehmen? Und kann sich Lewis Hamilton noch aus dem Ferrari-Tal hinauskämpfen? Schreibt es uns in die Kommentare!

Le championnat du monde des pilotes pourrait livrer son verdict dans la fraicheur de Las Vegas ! Lando Norris a désormais 24 points d'avance sur Oscar Piastri tandis que Max Verstappen reste loin derrière à l'affût (49 points). Mais à Las Vegas, tout peut être remis en question. Les Mercedes ont l'habitude de performer dans des performances froides alors et ce type de tracé urbain avec peu d'appui convient, normalement, moins bien à McLaren. Chez Ferrari, on est loin de lutter pour le titre. John Elkann, le président du groupe a allumé Charles Lerclerc et Lewis Hamilton après le Grand Prix du Brésil ? Les pilotes sont-ils à la hauteur cette saison ? Une crise couve-t-elle au sein de la Scuderia ?
Max Verstappen kijkt uit naar de Grand Prix van Las Vegas. Hij denkt dat 'bandenmanagement' het sleutelwoord zal worden aankomend weekend en hij hoopt op een positieve race.

Formula 1 Chief Commercial Officer Emily Prazer joins The Big Impression to accelerate the motorsport's hold on Americans with year-round content and venue in Las Vegas. Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.Damian Fowler (00:00):I'm Damian Fowler.Ilyse Liffreing (00:01):And I'm Ilyse LiffreingDamian Fowler (00:02):And welcome to this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (00:09):Today we're joined by Emily Prazer, president and CEO of the Las Vegas Grand Prix and the Chief Commercial Officer of Formula One. She's helping transform F1 into one of the fastest growing sports brands in the world, leading strategy partnerships and fan engagement across markets from Miami to Melbourne.Damian Fowler (00:30):Emily's here to talk about the road to the last Vegas Grand Prix on November the 22nd. Now, in its third year, the Vegas Grand Prix turns the strip into a global stage where sport, entertainment and culture collide under the neon lights.Ilyse Liffreing (00:46):I love that. From the 100 day countdown events to new sponsorship models and digital fan experiences, formula One is redefining what a modern sports brand can look like, especially in the U.S. market.Damian Fowler (01:02):In past years, the marketing around Las Vegas, the Grand Prix has felt like a crescendo building over several months. What's been your strategy this year as you build, it's the third year, right? As you build towards those?Emily Prazer (01:14):Yeah, this third year, so I think the difference this year is we've had two years of a foundation to figure out what works and what doesn't work, but equally we've had our building open all year, so prior, well the first year we're obviously building the building for those that dunno, it's called Grand Prix Plaza. It's the length of three NFL fields, so it's not small. It's designed and built to service the Formula One Paddock Club, which is the most high-end hospitality that we offer in Formula One. Underneath that is where the garages are and where the teams hang out, so it's quite a significant building. When we first moved to Vegas, we purchased the 39 acres of land and have invested around $500 million in this infrastructure and so the difference I think is obviously the first year we were building it, the second year we were getting to grips with owning such a significant property in Las Vegas and then moving into the third year of the event, the building's been open all year and we built something called F1 Drive, which is carting.(02:10):We've had a restaurant up there called Fool and Fork, which is Formula One, themed food and beverage as you'd expect. We built an immersive Formula one experience called F1 X and so the marketing's ramped up, but that's because locally we've been able to activate since the day after the race last year all the way through to this year, and obviously how we market is very different depending on what we're trying to do, whether it's selling tickets or whether it's driving foot traffic to the building. It's all the awareness that we need in Las Vegas to continue to grow our fan base.Damian Fowler (02:41):The a hundred day countdown, that's important,Emily Prazer (02:43):Right? That was a big one. We always go big around a hundred days. We did a strip takeover, we made sure people understood that it was a hundred days ago. We did similar for 50 days, so we use those milestones to make sure, obviously Vegas is somewhat a last minute market. Some Grand Prix go on sale and sell out in 90 minutes. We see the most amount of activity from a hundred days through to November.Damian Fowler (03:04):That's very interesting. How do you decide which moments where you target your marketing strategy in that a hundred day buildup?Emily Prazer (03:12):Oh, well, we're very fortunate that the racing continues For those, again, that aren't familiar, formula One is a 24 race calendar, which spans globally, so we typically go big around the big races as you'd expect. We've just come out of Singapore where hopefully people have seen that McLaren won the Constructors Championship. We'll go big again around Austin and Mexico. They're both feeder markets to the Las Vegas Grand Prix and we'll just continue to make sure we've got major announcements, whether it be food and beverage merchandise programming all the way through between now and race day.Ilyse Liffreing (03:42):Now, can you also talk a little bit about the F1 business summits because you're also launching that during race week? Sure. How intentional is the idea of making Vegas not just a race, but a business and cultural destination?Emily Prazer (03:56):Sure. Well, if you look at what Vegas do around other major sports, it's not that we're trying to reinvent the wheel, we're taking learnings from how well the NFL have operated there with the Super Bowl, even around WWE where you see them extend from a one or two day event through to a whole week. We are very fortunate that again, for those that dunno, formula One kicks off on Thursday with free practice, we have qualifying on Friday and then on Saturday is the race. And so we are lucky that we actually have really good opportunity for shoulder programming and so it was a lot of requests coming through from multiple stakeholders saying we'd love to get the ecosystem together and talk about how we've shifted Formula One culturally into something very different. Obviously it's a sport first and foremost, but I think everyone's now seeing the change into more of a lifestyle brand and a proposition around how we're executing with some partners, which I'm sure we'll get to, but I think a lot of it has been around how we kind of talk about that strategy and how we've grown the sport over the last five years.(04:54):So it was very intentional, it's had really great uptake and as you'll see as we get closer to the race, we'll start talking about what we're doing kind of Tuesday, Wednesday all the way through.Damian Fowler (05:04):It was interesting you brought up the mention of partners and the fact that Formula One now transcends the racetrack and I for one say follow some Formula One drivers on Instagram. How do you play into that whole notion now that Formula One is this lifestyle brand and what does that mean when it comes to partnerships?Emily Prazer (05:26):Well, we've been really fortunate that we've, formula One was bought by Liberty Media in 2017 and the handcuffs were taken off per se, where social media was something that didn't really exist in the sport prior to that and the drivers have done a great job and the teams have done a great job of giving us access collectively to the drivers. They're all a lot younger than they have been before, so we've been fortunate enough to help them build their profiles through social, but obviously the pivot came with Drive to Survive. Everyone knows that that was a big leap of faith that Formula One took to be able to give behind the scenes access. It's a complicated sport that had traditionally been kept to a different type of club and we've opened up those floodgates and obviously we're reaping the rewards of that at the moment.(06:10):It hasn't been easy, but ultimately when you have the likes of Netflix wanting to display what we do, hopefully everyone's seen the Formula One movie with Brad Pitt, which is now I think the highest grossing sporting movie of all time and Brad Pitt's highest grossing movie of all time. So that again, is a great explainer if you take that concept, the strategy around all of it has to create this always on dynamic, which isn't just about the 24 race weekends, it's about how to have brand extension through partnerships 24 7, 365 days a year that's come to life through our licensing business, which I can get to and also our sponsorship business, that the thought process was we want to sign less B2B organizations more consumer brands, not because we don't appreciate, we are always going to have a B2B element Formula One lives in that space, especially on the technical side of the sport, but as it talks about how we penetrate the fan base, how we acquire new fans and how we talk to fans differently.(07:06):One of the big pieces of it was, well, how do we show up in every shopping mall, not just in North America, but globally and using the likes of Lego? You would've seen our recent announcement with Tag Hoya. You now go to these shopping malls and you see these different brands actually activating and taking some learnings from how the US sports do it, where everywhere you go you can buy a t-shirt. I think one of my proudest moments was being at the Super Bowl last year in New Orleans and seeing people in the parade wearing Formula one T-shirts.(07:32):I was like, that shows that the strategy is working. In addition to we acknowledge that pricing of Grand Prix is expensive, they're also places you typically have to travel to, and so brand extension through license partners has been really important. We have something called F1 Drive, which we'll be rolling out, which is the carting proposition I mentioned in Vegas we have F1 arcade, which is now opening up and popping up all over North America. We have F1 exhibition, which is a tribute to the history of the sport and we'll keep growing as we want to keep penetrating and explaining to those fansIlyse Liffreing (08:07):Fans. That is really interesting hearing you describe just how different the strategy here is in the US too because F1 is such a global brand. How do you I guess, keep the brand though true to its global roots at the same time as also making it feel like America's race?Emily Prazer (08:25):Definitely not trying to make it feel like America's race. I think taking the learnings of how to speak to the audience we've acquired wherever we go, the benefit of being a global sport is we're global, but in each of those destinations we act very local. So when you're there, you very much know that when you're at the British Grand Prix that you're at Silverstone and there's all of the heritage around it, Monza, there's nothing more special in global sport in my opinion, than seeing the ZI on a Sunday run onto the grid with the Ferrari flags and what have you that you can't take that passion and bottle it up and just pop it into a US race. The US market is different, but if you look at how Miami has identified itself, you for sure know where you are. Same with Austin, where it's Texas and everybody is in cowboy boots and you know that you're in Texas and then Vegas takes it to a different level because we partner with our friends at the L-B-C-V-A and other partners in Vegas to bring that kind of extreme entertainment to life. So yeah, wherever you go, you really do know where you are and that's where I think the local element comes into play.Ilyse Liffreing (09:28):Has anything changed in the sports rights context in order for Formula One to really be able to create more social and organic marketing tied to the event?Emily Prazer (09:41):Yeah, I think it's that we've got the confidence to try different things and have given different types of access. So you'll see obviously that we have lots of short form content. Now we're noticing that this generation of fandom that we're trying to continue to excite wants to look at things slightly differently, whether it be through YouTube or TikTok. I think we're launching our first TikTok store in a couple of weeks, which I never thought we would be in a place to do, but it's a testament to where the sports got to. So I don't think the rights have changed. I think our approach to it has changed where we have the confidence because of the excitement around destinations like Las Vegas to shift our mindset. Like I say, we're not going to do it everywhere. We're going to pick specific places to test it, and Vegas for us for the last three years has served as that test testbed.(10:28):You'll see the collaborations alone that we do in the merchandise space we've not been able to replicate prior and we're proud of it. What we're doing there is giving us the confidence to deliver new partnerships across the sport. American Express is a prime example where they came in as a Vegas only partner, did a year of that, a year later became a regional partner, so they activated across the Americas and then a year after that became a global partner. So it's just showing that we can bring in these more consumer led brands, but also how we've shifted our mindset to be able to deliver against it.Damian Fowler (11:00):That happened very fast. It's kind of amazing. You touched on this a little bit, but the different audiences in the different markets. What have you learned after the first two years of hosting Grand Prix in the United States about American fans specifically?Emily Prazer (11:16):Just that you need to give them variety. They aren't going to come in and behave the same way as a traditional Motorsport fan that has been or has grown up with. The heritage of the British audience is a great example where I mentioned Silverstone goes on sale and sells out. We've had to adjust the product to make sure that we're very much catering to that audience and the programming around it, like we talked about, has been super important. People don't want to come just for one session, but they want the option to come and leave and go to a casino or go to a different show and what have you. So they're looking for all round entertainment, not just coming to watch the Formula One event, which we focus specifically on making sure that we deliver against.Damian Fowler (11:59):One thing that's interesting about Vegas as well is that it's a big draw for tourism globally as well and people fly in. So maybe that fan base is also kind of a mix of international and local.Emily Prazer (12:11):Yeah, well interestingly, we've seen the majority of our fan base come from Mexico, Canada, and within the United States. I think Vegas obviously is incredibly special that they cater to everyone. I think they have something like 150,000 hotel rooms that spam from five star all the way through, and so one of the things that we had to pivot from in the first year where we expected Vegas to be this really, really high end proposition was actually that we needed to cater for all different types of ticket package and hospitality package. So we've learned those differences. We thought that it would be very, very high end and mostly international. It's actually around 80% domestic, but drive in traffic and fly in traffic from other US markets in. Like I said, Canada and Mexico have been significant buyers of the Grand Prix and Vegas.Ilyse Liffreing (12:59):Very cool. I'm very curious what kind of feedback you've gotten so far from those fans, sponsors, broadcasters, anybody watching the sport in Vegas?Emily Prazer (13:09):Well, the sponsors love it because it's something different. Like I said, we put a lot of emphasis on the production. What we were all really surprised about was the quality of the racing. I think it has the most overtakes on the Formula one calendar, so that was something we weren't going to know until you can do simulations, but until you see cars going around the track in the first year, we didn't really acknowledge or understand how great the actual racing would be. So I think that was the biggest surprise around feedback and what the broadcasters and general audience have been quite positive about shifting. The mentality and mindset has been something that we're proud of, but it's all stemming from the confidence we've gained through promoting our own event.Ilyse Liffreing (13:47):When you look at success, what KPIs are you most interested in? Is it ticket sales or,Emily Prazer (13:54):I think it's all around halo effect for the sport ticket sales and revenue is obviously my ultimate goal. I'm the chief commercial officer of Formula One, so I don't think I can sit here and say otherwise, but brand extension and growing the fandom and being engaged, giving another touch point to the US audience when again, I mentioned Liberty bought Formula One in 2017, they were very clear that they had two very strategic objectives. One was growing the sport in the United States, the other was growing the sport in Asia and obviously Asia's taken a little bit longer for obvious reasons with COVID and what have you, but we're starting to see the momentum pick up again there. The US we heavily focused on signing Miami as a starting point as a partnership with the Miami Dolphins, which we're really happy with, proud of as they have shown us how to do it. Seeing how they put their event on before we even put on Vegas meant that we could really take their learnings. But yeah, the expectations are that we continue to grow it, that the production level remains incredibly high and that it's our tempo event in the Formula one calendar.Damian Fowler (14:55):Now, you mentioned the Netflix show Drive to Survive, and obviously there's been a lot of media around the importance of that show. Could you talk a little bit about the significance of that show, how it helps or not inspire marketing strategy?Emily Prazer (15:09):Yeah, it comes back to this always on point that I mentioned before, which is Formula One needs to be accessible for the next generation of fans to truly understand it and the next generation of fans care about the competitive nature of the racing, but they also want to understand the personalities behind the sport, and I think it gave us the opportunity to open up to be able to show who we all are. The technical terminology, the filming that went into that and the movie to be honest, has given us the opportunity to use that content to be able to explain what DRS means or what is the significance of each Grand Prix, what does it actually mean? So these drivers like the NFL, when a player puts on a helmet, it's hard to understand the emotion, but being able to get to know the drivers and the team behind the drivers, which is also incredibly important, has been really helpful in our marketing strategy.(16:01):But what it inspired was how do we talk to the different audience? Like I said before, you can't talk to that audience the same way that you talk to the 75-year-old fan that's been going to Silverstone since its inception. So a lot of it has been about how we change our thoughts around short form content and how we use different platforms. To talk to a different audience in different markets has just meant that we've had to learn how to engage and pivot from just broadcast on a Sunday to every minute of every day coming up with new ideas to talk to the fan base.Damian Fowler (16:34):That's pressure for sure. You also mentioned the different channels, and we do talk about a lot about how live sports is now available across many, many different channels and tech platforms are bidding next to traditional broadcasters. I wonder in the mix of things, and especially when it comes to the show and when you broadcast it, how important has that kind of explosion as it were of channels been?Emily Prazer (17:00):I mean we have been ahead on the curve on that somewhat for we are different. Formula One owns its own broadcast capability. We have an office or a building in the UK in Big and Hill and Kent for those that have been in London, been to Kent around London and it's incredible. We own and operate again the whole thing. So every camera, every fiber optic cable, everything you see at a Grand Prix is being produced by Formula One. We have remote operations at the track that go back to Big and Hill and we have 180 broadcasters globally. So we've always been slightly different to other mainstream sports in that regard because we produce our own show, which is helpful for us around sponsorship and what have you. But generally speaking, I think obviously the world is changing and we've got to make sure we keep up with it.Ilyse Liffreing (17:47):Looking forward, which marketing innovations, there's obviously a lot right now, but ai, contextual, programmatic, what excites you the most? Is there any digital marketing innovations?Emily Prazer (18:02):Yeah, I think AI is something that we are excited but cautious. Again, with the sport that's so technologically advanced, you've got to be thoughtful about how we use it. We also don't want to lock ourselves in one direction or the other. So we're doing a lot of work without Formula One has the most unbelievable roster of tech partners. If you think about Salesforce, AWS, Lenovo globin to name a few, they're going to tell us how to use AI to benefit our sport, not just commercially, but on the tech side. So we are very excited about it, not just from a marketing point of view, but from a just general point of view. How does AI benefit the sport? We're taking a massive amount of time to think about just general activations. I know that sounds kind of immature if you think about Formula One, but how do we bring different activity to the track outside of just races? I'm not sure if either of you saw what we did in Miami with Lego, where Lego built 10 full size cars for the drivers to race Lego cars around the track.Damian Fowler (19:05):I show my son that. That'sEmily Prazer (19:06):So cool. If you think about the content that that created around marketing, that was probably the most viral thing we've done in a very, very long time. So our marketing strategy at the moment is about solidifying the brand equity, making sure that we deliver against our partnership objectives and that we continue to grow our social platforms. I'm not going to say that we're not technically as advanced, but the data capabilities is all quite new to Formula One. Loyalty programs are all quite new to us, so for us, I keep coming back to it, but it's really about figuring out how to engage with the audience and have something to sell them. Again, we're a rights holder that doesn't have tons of assets to sell ourselves. We license a lot out, and so really it's about coming up with these creative ideas to be kind of 10 steps ahead of anyone else.(19:53):And I think we are in a very unique space. We're very lean, which means we can be very nimble. So when we're making a lot of these decisions, it's me going to Stefano who's the CEO of Formula one saying, how do you feel about us trying something like this? And that's again, where we link the Vegas piece together with the broader marketing strategy to continue to keep everyone engaged rather than it just being like a technical marketing play. Obviously we do that day in, day out, but I think for us it's the confidence we've got now to really push the boundaries and be the first to do a lot of different things, whether it be what we're doing in the broadcast around all of the different types of digital advertising and what have you. I think again, if you watch the races, you'll start to see that we are trying and testing new technologies in thatIlyse Liffreing (20:37):Way. And on that note, we talked a little bit before about the timing of the race in Vegas. InEmily Prazer (20:46):Vegas. Yeah.Ilyse Liffreing (20:47):Because it's a new time for you guys thatEmily Prazer (20:49):10:00 PM Yeah, we moved it forward from 10:00 PM to 8:00 PM which is great. I think a lot of people were struggling with how that's local time, right? Local time, yeah. When we first went to Vegas, the idea was that the timing would be in line with the boxing match or the show. So it wasn't done for any other reason than 10 o'clock on a Saturday night in Vegas is when typically you start seeing things happen. The difference being is that the distance or time you need to keep between certain amounts of sessions meant that it created gaps. So if there were delays that 10:00 PM could technically be pushed. And so we had our issues in the first year. We learned from those last year operationally delivered really well, but we still felt that it was slightly too late, hence the 8:00 PM start. So everything has shifted forward. We have F1 Academy this year, which we're really excited about, so that will, I think doors now open at 2:30 PM rather than four. So it means everything will be a lot earlier, but it's all for the show.Damian Fowler (21:48):And presumably you have a kind of global viewership as well, so that all impactsEmily Prazer (21:53):The trends. Yeah, I think it obviously will be beneficial to the east coast market, not so beneficial to the rest of the world, but we still feel good about the viewership numbers and what we're seeing. SoDamian Fowler (22:03):The true fans willEmily Prazer (22:05):Watch you, right? If not next. Exactly. Hands always come through. Exactly.Damian Fowler (22:08):Alright, so we've got some kind of quick fire questions here to wrap this up. So first off, what keeps you up at night in the lead up to this?Emily Prazer (22:16):Everything in the lead up? The lead up. I'm not sleeping at all my first year as A CEO, I think last year it would've been ticket sales. This year it's probably just security and all round operations. So as my role has expanded on the Vegas race particularly, it's just we are opening and closing the track every three hours. It's not like other street races keep their roads closed for up to seven days. We are having to keep it open and close it regularly. You're in one of the busiest roads in North America, so we don't really have much of a choice and we don't want to impact the locals any further. So I think it's just being responsible for the logistics is scary.Damian Fowler (22:58):Wow. I agree. Closing the road down is like mind blowing.Emily Prazer (23:00):Yeah, it is genuinely mind blowing. If you go to Vegas now, you can see that things are still are on their way to being built and it's like, oh wow, this is happening.Ilyse Liffreing (23:10):That is scary. I'm scary for you. What would you say is missing in the US sports sponsorship marketplace that you would love to see happen?Emily Prazer (23:19):Ooh, good question. I haven't thought about the answer to that. That's a hard one. I'm going to have to sit on that one for a minute. Don't worry. Yeah, I mean I can't speak for, I can only really speak for my sport, but I'd love to have the same access to the teams that N-F-L-N-B-A have as the rights holder. We definitely don't get to just sell the team IP as we see fit. We have something in Formula One called the Concord Agreement, which means that we have some restrictions there. But yeah, let me have a think about the broader space. Sorry. I like that answer One hit me.Damian Fowler (23:52):That's a good answer there. We can circle back and do it again if you want, but I like that to be honest. Okay. So which other sports or entertainment brands do you think are nailing their brand positioning right now?Emily Prazer (24:03):I think the NBA and the NFL, they just do it so unbelievably well and they have fandom here. I've never witnessed in the UK you very much see the fandom around a specific team. Here you see genuine fandom around the NFL. And what I love as a Brit in the US obviously is I still can't believe how each of the TV channels cross-promote each other for other games. So you'll be watching Fox and they'll be like, tune into CBS to watch this game. And you're like, oh wow. They really do do it for the greater good of the league. We would obviously it's different. We don't have multiple games in Formula One, but if I think about it in comparison to the Premier League, you really do follow the team. If I'm a Chelsea fan by the way, but I would watch Chelsea, I wouldn't then flip channels to watch Man United in the us.(24:57):I find myself on a Sunday watching three or four games and I'm like, I'm not even your core audience. It has to be something to do with the marketing that it's always there telling me what to do, telling me how to watch it. And I really admire, maybe this is actually the answer to the previous question. I actually admire how good they are at getting in my head because I think about it, I'm like, what games are on a Sunday or what playoffs are happening in the NBA and I go to watch it because it's there. Whereas like I said, premier League, as much as I'm a huge Chelsea fan and grew up with it, you just don't seem to be able to follow it like that.Damian Fowler (25:35):Yeah, that's very interesting. Would you say you were an NFL fan before you came to theEmily Prazer (25:39):Us? No, not at all. Didn't know the rules and now I'm like hardcoreDamian Fowler (25:42):Because of the marketing, I guess.Emily Prazer (25:43):Wow. Must be. They just got in my head.Damian Fowler (25:46):Amazing. Yeah. And that's it for this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (25:54):This show is produced by Molten Hart. Our theme is by love and caliber, and our associate producer is Sydney Cairns.Damian Fowler (26:01):And remember,Emily Prazer (26:02):We've had to learn how to engage and pivot from just kind of broadcast on a Sunday to every minute of every day coming up with new ideas to talk to the fan base.Damian Fowler (26:13):I'm Damian.

The 2025 Formula 1 Season is here!. It's Round 22, the Las Vegas Grand Prix - down the STRIP. Let's get into the details & give our predictions for bangers & clangers shall we. My name's Tommo, let's talk about it.
We're covering Chitty Chitty Bang Bang in this lap's first pit stop, and finally taking care of some much overdo business, such as: making Rachel happy by finally watching and talking about this movie. After discussing the (many) connections this movie has to James Bond (and the production's goal to simply make another Mary Poppins and to "out-Disney Disney"), Joe shares what he thought of this musical. We ask: does this story make any sense (and does it matter if not?)? (Also: why do we start with so many Grand Prix races?) We talk about movie characters who can think they can fly (and also movies with quicksand in them), how much we appreciate Dick Van Dyke, and kids' ways of selectively watching movies. We talk about how (surprisingly!) F&F-coded Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is, the movie's hard pivot (The Wizard of Oz style) into becoming a fantasy story, and the nightmare fuel of the Child Catcher.

In this episode of Paddock 43, we sit down with Karl Reindler - one of only TWO people in the world trusted to drive the Formula 1 Medical Car. Karl takes us inside the job no one talks about but every F1 fan should know: following the entire grid at full speed on Lap 1, arriving first at major crashes, and making split-second decisions that can save lives. We dive deep into: The insane reality of being the first responder in F1 What it was like arriving first at Zhou Guanyu's terrifying 2022 Silverstone crash How some drivers react (and don't react) after major incidents How Karl went from F3 Champion & Supercars driver to F1 Medical Car driver The pressure of piloting “the fastest ambulance in the world” The wildest things he's seen from behind the scenes that fans never get to hear about Karl also opens up about his own fireball crash, how it shaped his dedication to motorsport safety, and why this role has become the most meaningful chapter of his life. This episode pulls back the curtain on one of F1's most intense and misunderstood roles and shows just how critical the Medical Car team is to the sport we love.
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?

Hello Valencia. It's good to be back. Neil, David and Adam pick up the mics on the eve of the twenty-second and last Grand Prix of the year (don't forget the test!) to run the rule on the Ricardo Tormo. They are also joined in Spain by MotoGP journo Don, Mat Oxley, who chats about his new book on Marc Marquez.
« Je prends acte de ce geste d'humanité du président Tebboune et l'en remercie », a déclaré hier Emmanuel Macron, après la libération de l'écrivain franco-algérien Boualem Sansal par les autorités algériennes. « Avec l'Algérie, le bras de fer ne fonctionne pas », a ajouté l'un des conseillers du Président français. Est-ce à dire que le départ du gouvernement français de Bruno Retailleau, qui prônait la fermeté avec Alger, a facilité les choses ? L'écrivain franco-algérien Kamel Bencheikh, qui est l'un des membres fondateurs du comité de soutien à Boualem Sansal, témoigne au micro de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Quelle est votre réaction à la libération de Boualem Sansal ? Kamel Bencheikh : Vous vous doutez que je saute au plafond, que c'est une joie incommensurable. Lorsque je l'ai appris, d'abord, je ne m'y attendais pas du tout. Parce qu'on s'est attendu à sa libération pendant l'Aïd el-Kébir, puis pour le 5 juillet, fête de la libération de l'Algérie. On a été déçus et chat échaudé craint l'eau froide. Je ne m'y attendais pas et je n'espérais plus rien. Tout de même, il y a quelques jours, sur France Inter, le patron de la DGSE, les services français de renseignement extérieurs, Nicolas Lerner, déclarait : « Il y a des signaux venant d'Alger en faveur d'une reprise du dialogue. J'espère qu'il y aura libération de nos deux compatriotes, Boualem Sansal et Christophe Gleizes. » Je l'ai écouté et nous espérions tous. Mais connaissant le pouvoir d'Alger et le régime d'Alger, je me suis dit que, à moins qu'il soit grièvement malade, ils ne le lâcheront pas. Je pense que ce n'est pas un geste de clémence. C'est parce qu'il est malade qu'ils voulaient se débarrasser de lui. Apparemment, l'Allemagne et son président Frank-Walter Steinmeier ont joué un grand rôle, non ? Certainement. Parce que, entre l'Allemagne et l'Algérie, il y a des relations fortes dans le domaine économique. Il ne faut pas se le cacher, le président Abdelmadjid Tebboune a l'habitude d'aller se faire soigner en Allemagne. Il l'a fait l'année dernière et il y a deux ans. Cette médiation allemande, en aviez-vous déjà eu connaissance ces derniers mois ? Non, pas du tout. C'est une surprise pour moi. Sans être une surprise, parce que Boualem Sansal est très connu en Allemagne. Il a eu le Grand Prix des libraires allemands pour l'ensemble de son œuvre. Il avait l'habitude d'aller faire des conférences pour les ambassadeurs allemands à l'étranger. C'est là-bas qu'il a écrit son livre Gouverner au nom d'Allah. Il a été reçu deux ou trois fois par l'ancienne chancelière allemande Angela Merkel. On peut donc imaginer qu'Emmanuel Macron a demandé à Frank-Walter Steinmeier de faire une démarche auprès d'Alger ? Je ne l'imagine pas et je n'imagine rien parce que maintenant que Boualem Sansal est arrivé à Berlin, tout le monde va dire : « C'est grâce à moi. » Moi, je ne le sais pas, je ne suis pas au courant. Tout ce que je sais, c'est qu'on a essayé de contacter la présidence française qui n'a jamais réagi. Que les deux filles de Boualem Sansal, Sabira et Naouel, ont écrit dans Le Figaro une lettre ouverte au président Macron à laquelle il n'a jamais répondu. Cela nous a déçu. Du côté des Français, on avait remarqué ces derniers mois qu'il y avait deux lignes sur la question algérienne : la ligne de fermeté, incarnée par le ministre de l'Intérieur de l'époque, Bruno Retailleau ; et la ligne modérée, incarnée par le ministre des Affaires étrangères, Jean-Noël Barrot. Avez-vous senti la même chose ? Bien évidemment. On dirait que ce sont des ministres des deux gouvernements différents. Jean-Noël Barrot en est même arrivé à taper sur le comité de soutien et en particulier sur Xavier Driencourt, l'ancien ambassadeur de France en Algérie, en le traitant de tous les noms et en le traitant de militant d'extrême droite. Alors que Bruno Retailleau tenait la ligne dure vis-à-vis de l'Algérie et je pense que l'Algérie l'a humilié. Ne serait-ce qu'en n'acceptant pas les obligations de quitter le territoire français (OQTF). N'est-ce pas le départ du gouvernement de Bruno Retailleau qui a facilité l'issue favorable à Boualem Sansal ? Je n'y crois pas. D'abord, c'est parce que le président allemand l'a demandé et l'Allemagne est un partenaire important pour l'Algérie. Deuxièmement, je suis sûr – on le saura dans les prochaines heures, sinon dans les prochains jours –, que les examens de santé que demandait Boualem Sansal devaient être faits en Occident. Je pense qu'ils ne pouvaient pas le laisser mourir chez eux parce que le monde entier aurait réagi. Donc, pour vous, le moment de la libération de Boualem Sansal, c'est d'abord un moment médical ? Médical, oui. Une année, cela suffit. En gardant Boualem Sansal pendant une année, le pouvoir algérien, le régime algérien, a montré non seulement au monde qu'il était « souverain », mais surtout aux opposants que nul n'est à l'abri d'une arrestation. Boualem Sansal n'était-il pas l'otage d'une crise politique entre Alger et Paris ? Sa libération n'est-elle pas le signe que cela va mieux entre les deux pays ? Ce n'est pas ma lecture. Ma lecture, c'est que Boualem Sansal a été arrêté parce que les islamistes se sont sentis forts en Algérie. Ils lui en voulaient terriblement. Le jour où il a dérapé, dans le média Frontières, en parlant des frontières algéro-marocaines, c'était l'occasion ou jamais pour obliger le président et le pouvoir algérien à l'arrêter. Tout de même, le président Abdelmadjid Tebboune n'envoie-t-il pas un message d'apaisement à Paris par l'intermédiaire de cette grâce à l'égard de Boualem Sansal ? Cela aurait été le cas s'il avait été libéré à la demande de Paris. Ce n'est pas le cas. Mais le résultat est le même. Le résultat est le même et nous sommes heureux. Boualem Sansal arrive en Allemagne et d'ici à quelques jours, il sera probablement parmi les siens, y compris en France ? Bien sûr, nous l'attendons de pied ferme. Mais je ne suis pas sûr que c'est pour faire plaisir au gouvernement français qu'il a été libéré. C'est même l'inverse. Ils ont résisté à toutes les demandes françaises pendant une année. Il y a Boualem Sansal et puis il y a un autre ressortissant français, le journaliste Christophe Gleizes, qui a été condamné au mois de juin dernier à sept ans de prison. Comment voyez-vous sa situation aujourd'hui ? Il faut absolument qu'il en sorte. Mais au-delà de Boualem Sansal et de Christophe Gleizes, il y a des centaines de prisonniers politiques qui sont dans les prisons algériennes. Maintenant que nous avons eu le bonheur d'avoir le retour de Boualem Sansal, il faudrait que nous ne lâchions pas concernant Christophe Gleizes. Il faut absolument que l'on commente, que l'on se batte pour qu'il nous revienne. Son procès en appel est prévu dans quelques semaines, début décembre, à Alger. Êtes-vous optimiste ? Je ne suis ni optimiste ni pessimiste parce que les réactions algériennes sont très improbables. C'est là où l'on verra justement si le pouvoir algérien veut faire plaisir à la France, puisque cela ne passera pas par l'Allemagne, cette fois-ci. Ce que vous dites, c'est qu'avec le sort à venir de Christophe Gleizes, on saura si, oui ou non, il y a un apaisement entre Alger et Paris ? C'est exactement ce que je veux dire. Mais en tout cas, ce que vous souhaitez, c'est la libération de Christophe Gleizes également. Oui, qu'il revienne vers sa famille, vers son pays, à son métier.

With three rounds left of the 2025 season, Oscar Piastri is still in contention to become Formula 1 World Champion for the first time. So what's it like being in the thick of an F1 title fight with so much at stake? Speaking to Tom Clarkson before the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, Oscar opens up about the pressure of a title battle and why fighting a teammate is different to racing against any other driver. He also discusses whether his relationship with teammate Lando Norris has changed this year and how he feels McLaren have handled the challenge of treating them both equally. It's easy to forget that this is only Oscar's third season as an F1 driver. With seven wins, seven podiums and five pole positions, he's taken a huge leap forward. What exactly did he work on over the winter to make so much progress this year? And how are race engineer Tom Stallard, manager Mark Webber and new physio Artturi Simila all helping his development? As well as reflecting on the highs, Oscar also talks about dealing with setbacks in Australia, at Silverstone and in Azerbaijan, which is good insight into how he'll bounce back from a difficult weekend in Brazil.

Said the greatest driver ever to come out of Brazil. Sadly a few too many of the current grid took that to heart this weekend and a few teams were left with serious repair jobs, penalties and wasted weekends.This week on the podcast we look back at the Brazilian Grand Prix weekend where a combination of a drying track, soaking kerbs (hey, we're British OK!) and quite possibly a lack of spatial awareness from some drivers gave us both an entertaining sprint and a Grand Prix that showed us that you cannot count out Max Verstappen when there's even the faintest sniff of a podiumAs usual, we go team by team for who did what, who didn't do what and what the hell were they doing throughout the weekend after 2 races that have firmly tipped the balance for the World Driver's Championship very much onto Lando's side.And if you want to join in with the chat during the races (along with practice and qualifying) head over to our Discord where there's always a great crowd of people to watch along with.

From the Formula 1 Grand Prix to Super Bowl weekend, there's no city on Earth that can coordinate large-scale events like Las Vegas — and MGM Resorts International is at the center of it all. In the final part of my MGM executive series on #NoVacancyNews, I sat down with John Flynn, SVP of Global Security and Aviation, to explore how MGM and its partners manage security, aviation logistics, and guest experience during some of the world's biggest events. John explains what it takes to move thousands of VIPs in and out of the city during F1 weekend, how coordination across every property keeps the Strip running smoothly, and why service and safety go hand in hand in modern hospitality.

The world record for fastest pit stop—a mere 1.8 seconds—was set by the McLaren F1 Team at the Qatar Grand Prix in 2023. It's an incredible feat of speed and choreography; a pit stop that fast can't happen without a team of people operating at peak human performance. But as Dan Keyworth explains, AI plays a crucial role, too. As the Director of Business Technology at McLaren Racing, Dan is responsible for helping the whole team perform at their best—and that starts with having the right tools. Whether it's the firehose of sensor data coming off a race car, video analysis of the pit crew in action, or marketing analytics for the next Grand Prix, AI helps the McLaren F1 Team make the right decisions—and make them fast.On this episode, Dan talks about the importance of getting simple answers from complex data, how they use Dropbox Dash, and why we shouldn't think of AI as labor replacement so much as laborious replacement.You can learn more about the McLaren F1 Team at mclaren.com/racing/formula-1.

Lando Norris hat beim Grand Prix von Brasilien einen Gala-Auftritt hingelegt. Der Engländer gewann sowohl den Sprint als auch das Rennen in São Paulo. In der Tabelle liegt er nun 24 Punkte vor seinem McLaren-Teamkollegen Oscar Piastri und ist auf dem besten Weg, zum ersten Mal Formel-1-Weltmeister zu werden. Piastris fand dagegen auch in Brasilien keinen Weg aus der Krise. Nach seinem Sprint-Crash fuhr er im Rennen in Andrea Kimi Antonelli, der Charles Leclerc traf. Für Piastri setzte es noch eine Strafe, mehr als Rang fünf war nicht drin. Antonelli schaffte sowohl im Sprint als auch im Rennen den zweiten Platz und hatte Mercedes-Stallgefährte George Russell das ganze Wochenende im Griff. Der Rookie kommt immer besser in Fahrt. Dritter wurde Max Verstappen. Der Red-Bull-Pilot zeigte eine starke Aufholjagd, nachdem er aus der Box gestartet war. Sein Team hatte das Setup nach dem Quali-Frust umgebaut. In der WM liegt der Champion aber 49 Punkte hinter Norris. Die Chancen auf Verstappens fünften Titel in der Formel 1 sind gesunken. Erneut stark unterwegs war Oliver Bearman als Sechster im Haas. Nico Hülkenberg schaffte ebenfalls in die Punkte. Dagegen erlebte sein Sauber-Teamkollege Gabriel Bortoleto bei seinem ersten Heimspiel ein schlechtes Wochenende und flog zwei Mal ab. Einen Doppel-Nuller musste Ferrari verzeichnen. Leclerc wurde abgeschossen und Lewis Hamilton war im Rennen nur durch Kollisionen aufgefallen. In einer neuen Folge Formel Schmidt sprechen wir über den Brasilien-GP, ob sich Lando Norris noch den Titel nehmen lässt und ob Oscar Piastri sich wieder berappeln kann. Dazu reden wir über die Wunderheilung von Red Bull im Rennen. Was ist eure Vorhersage für den Titelkampf? Können Piastri und Verstappen nochmal zurückschlagen?

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.

On this episode, I sit down with pro mountain biker and endurance powerhouse Hannah Otto to talk about the mental and physical strategies that fuel her remarkable performances from setting FKTs on the Moab Triple Crown to racing in the Lifetime Grand Prix and World Championships.Hannah shares how she's built a life around adventure and purpose, balancing the technical and tactical side of elite racing with the mindset tools that keep her grounded and thriving. We dive into her journey from triathlon to mountain biking, lessons from the Leadville 100 win, and how she approaches fear, failure, and focus with the same level of intention she brings to every ride.We also unpack what she calls the “psychological similarity” between pros and everyday athletes, the shared experience of pushing limits, battling self-doubt, and chasing growth for its own sake. Hannah talks about working with a sports psychologist, learning to control what you can and release what you can't, and how her “CocoPelli Strong” mantra has become a symbol of resilience after one of her toughest days on the trail.Episode Art Photo Credit: Marcus Graciaskimo gold, endurance and life coaching with brief testimonials
Lando Norris heeft in Brazilië een voorschot genomen op de wereldtitel. De Brit won in Sao Paolo zowel de sprintrace als de reguliere Grand Prix en staat nu 24 punten voor op Oscar Piastri en 49 op Max Verstappen. De Nederlander was op zondag wel bezig met een imposante inhaalrace. Vanuit de pitstraat finishte Verstappen als derde. En Piastri lijkt het de laatste weken helemaal kwijt te zijn. De Australiër finishte in Brazilië als vijfde. De laatste keer dat hij op het podium eindigde was in Monza, begin september. We hebben een hele boel om op terug te blikken en dat doen we dit keer met coureur en analist Jeroen Bleekemolen, Formule 1-verslaggever Louis Dekker en F2-coureur Richard Verschoor. Presentatie is in handen van Edwin Cornelissen.

Visuals: https://getbehindthebillboard.com/episode-97-andy-clough-richard-mcgrannGood things come to those who wait … and we've been waiting a while for Andy Clough & Richard McGrann, but it was thoroughly worth it. Andy & Rich are one of adland's most brilliant and prolific teams, creating iconic award-winning work wherever they've worked. RKCR / Y&R, BBH, AMVBBDO, adam&eveDDB and Neverland have all benefited from their passion for big ideas, superbly executed. They've won awards wherever they've been, including 5 Grand Prix for their emotive ‘The Last Photo' campaign for CALM, placing them amongst the world's most awarded creatives at D&AD and Cannes.In a packed episode, we talked about The Times ‘Biggest For Sport' campaign and got a sneak peek into Andy's notebook and his sketches which were incredibly close to the finished work.For The Last Photo we discovered the inspiration for the big idea came in part from a Google search for ‘depression / suicide'. Every result had people sad, head in hands, in a dark place. The question was asked, what if people looked happy? Like a weight had been lifted, because they had decided to take the next step. This lead to the line ‘Suicide doesn't always look suicidal' and the concept of the last photo featuring real people. It's an incredibly moving story and a worthy follow up to the previous year's Project84 from Ant & Mike.We went into the wild with Whiskas, Feeding Your Cat's Instinct, which naturally won an outdoor Lion ;-)While for The Economist, for once we didn't discuss white headlines out of red, instead a thought provoking piece of DOOH on the subject of assisted suicide.Another important project was for Melanoma, more great crafting a simple graphic idea. And of course we found out how pot holes help create a great poster campaign for Pot Noodle.Gents, it was a total pleasure. So much amazing work for such a range of brands and projects, a tour de force in the great outdoors. Thank you so much.Thanks to our sponsorsBauer Media OutdoorView2FillSuper OptimalGAS Music
F1TV commentator and former Renault driver Jolyon Palmer, and De Telegraaf journalist Erik van Haren, join Tom Clarkson to preview this weekend's Sao Paulo Grand Prix. With four races and two F1 Sprints to go, Lando Norris leads Oscar Piastri at the top of the World Championship by just one point. How has Lando turned around a 34-point deficit to Oscar since his DNF in Zandvoort? Will the pressure change now he's gone from ‘hunter' to ‘hunted'? And having not been on the podium in the last four races, can Oscar regain momentum? In Mexico, Max Verstappen gained more ground in his late push to win a fifth championship in a row. Now 36 points off the lead, are Max's title chances in his own hands? And if he was to complete an incredible comeback, where would that achievement rank among his other successes? Erik also shares insight into Red Bull's transformation under Team Principal Laurent Mekies and what Max's future may hold after 2026. Plus, the guys discuss how the incredibly tight battle between Ferrari, Mercedes and Red Bull for P2 in the Constructors' Championship could play out.

FELIPE MASSA AND THE 2008 CHAMPIONSHIP NOW IN COURT!…WHO KNEW AND, WHO DIDN'T KNOW? WILL LCH BE FORCED TO HAND OVER 2008 GOODIES?...HOW COULD PIASTRI DROP OFF SO BADLY? COMPARED TO LANDO NORRIS! AND, THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER WE GET NOSTALGIC WITH A LOOK BACK TO 2016...GP2 ENGINE AAAHHHH.... Felipe Massa's Legal Case: In 2023, Massa filed a lawsuit against the FIA (International Automobile Federation) and F1's governing body, arguing that the manipulation of the 2008 race — which he believes cost him the championship — was not only unfair but should have been investigated more thoroughly at the time. Key points in Massa's case include: Fraud and Misconduct: Massa alleges that the events surrounding the Singapore Grand Prix in 2008 were fraudulent and misrepresented to the public, and that this directly affected the outcome of the championship. Potential Victory: He claims that, had the safety car period not occurred due to the orchestrated crash, he would have won the race and the title. Timing: Massa's case is built on the assertion that new evidence (like testimonies from insiders and other facts) has come to light, suggesting that the true extent of the manipulation wasn't fully revealed or dealt with at the time. Why Now? Massa's legal action comes years after the original events, with the key question being why the case is being pursued so late in the day. Some speculate that Massa might have been waiting for the right legal grounds or new evidence to surface, or simply for a change in the FIA's leadership and its handling of such cases. Current Status: As of late 2023, the case was ongoing, with Massa and his legal team looking to secure compensation or possibly even a re-opening of the 2008 season's results. Massa has hinted that he might be seeking justice more than just financial recompense. The outcome of this case could have significant implications for F1 and how the sport handles cases of team manipulation, race fixing, or other forms of cheating. It also raises questions about accountability within F1 and the FIA regarding race conduct. Massa's lawsuit is likely to be a long and complex legal battle, given the intricacies of sports law and the FIA's position in the motorsport world. How sweep it is: Porsche takes all three IMSA titles. At the end of the day, you can't talk about a history of racing without a history of winning. After a season of sweat, heat, trading paint and swapping drivers, Porsche Penske Motorsport has taken all three 2025 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship titles: Drivers', Teams', and Manufacturers'. No race—and no championship—is a given until the checkered flag drops. Yet after finding victory lane in the first four races of the season, there was definitely something in the air around Porsche Penske Motorsport. And with victories secured at Daytona, Sebring, Long Beach, and Monterey, the 963 was cementing its status as another legendary Porsche endurance racer. A string of strong finishes followed, all of them in the face of intense competition—which is exactly how racing should be. Because it's in the heat of the moment that you learn the lessons that make you better. All of them culminating at Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta, where the whole Porsche Penske Motorsport crew took what they'd learned and made it official: they're the champs.
