F1TV expert James Hinchcliffe and former F1 driver Esteban Gutiérrez join Tom Clarkson in the paddock to dissect a chaotic Mexico City Grand Prix. A dominant Lando Norris converted pole into victory to lead the World Championship for the first time since Bahrain. He's now a point clear of Oscar Piastri with four races and two F1 Sprints to go, so how will the mentality of both McLaren drivers change now they've swapped positions in the standings? Max Verstappen finished third to score his sixth podium in a row, but having said Red Bull would need to be ‘perfect' for the rest of the season if he's to complete a sensational comeback in this title race, will Max leave Mexico the least satisfied out of the three championship contenders? Ferrari had a mixed weekend, with Charles Leclerc securing back-to-back podiums and Lewis Hamilton unable to convert his best ever qualifying for the team into his first podium. The guys discuss his 10-second penalty for leaving the track and gaining an advantage, and whether Lewis will have learnt any lessons from his battle with Max. Plus, how did Haas rookie Ollie Bearman deliver a career-best finish of P4?

F1TV expert and six-time IndyCar race winner James Hinchcliffe joins Tom Clarkson in the Austin paddock to dissect all the action from the United States Grand Prix.  Max Verstappen dominated the weekend with victories in the Grand Prix and F1 Sprint to make up more ground on the McLaren drivers. He's now just 40 points behind championship leader Oscar Piastri, and only 26 adrift of Lando Norris, with five rounds to go.  Having now gone three races without a podium, what's causing Oscar's dip in form? How crucial could Lando's overtake of Charles Leclerc in the latter stages be to the outcome of this title fight? And, if Max and Red Bull's resurgence continues, will McLaren have to favour one of Oscar and Lando to ensure they win a first drivers' championship since 2008? Hinch also shares his thoughts on the ‘repercussions' Lando Norris said he'll face until the end of the season after his collision with Oscar in Singapore. Leclerc secured his and Ferrari's first podium since Belgium, six races ago. Why did his strategy to start on the soft tyres work so well? How did Ferrari turn their performance around after a challenging Friday? And will fourth-placed Lewis Hamilton see this as a missed opportunity to have scored his first podium for the team? Plus, Tom and Hinch discuss Mercedes' announcement that George Russell and Kimi Antonelli will drive for the team in 2026.  Listen to more official F1 podcasts In-depth interviews with F1's biggest stars on F1 Beyond The Grid Your F1 questions answered by the experts on F1 Explains It's All To Drive For in 2025.

Red Bull Technical Director Pierre Wache shares his thoughts and explains how the team have transformed their performance since the summer break. With Piastri crashing out on lap one and Lando Norris only finishing P7, how big a missed opportunity was this weekend for Lando to close the gap to his title rival? And was McLaren's difficult weekend a ‘hangover' from their team orders in Monza?  You'll also hear reaction from a very happy Carlos Sainz, after he scored his first podium for Williams, while Tom, Laura and Hinch also discuss a much better weekend for Mercedes duo George Russell and Kimi Antonelli,  a very important battle between Liam Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda on track, and a weekend to forget for Ferrari.

Today he's on F1TV giving us expert racing insight. But 10 years ago, James Hinchcliffe suffered a near-fatal accident during practice for the 2015 Indy500, which left many people doubting that his racing career could continue. A year later, he scored a sensational pole position at the very same racetrack. Speaking to Tom Clarkson, James talks through the freak injury he suffered and how he made such a miraculous recovery. A six-time IndyCar race winner, James also explains what it takes to be quick on high-speed ovals, whether the likes of Max Verstappen would be competitive on them and whether Indy stars like new four-time champion Alex Palou could succeed in Formula 1. Tom asks James why, despite being such a huge fan of F1 growing up, he didn't pursue a career in the pinnacle of motorsport, and whether he thinks the United States needs an American on the grid. Now a regular pundit and commentator on F1TV, James also shares his thoughts on the thrilling battle between McLaren teammates Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris to become World Champion in 2025.
