El Gran Premio de Mónaco 2026 dejó uno de los fines de semana más caóticos y controvertidos de los últimos años en la Fórmula 1. Aunque el resultado final pueda parecer tranquilo, la carrera estuvo marcada por accidentes, abandonos, coches de seguridad, una inesperada bandera roja y numerosas sanciones que alteraron la clasificación. En este episodio analizamos todo lo ocurrido en las calles de Montecarlo, comenzando por la inusual interrupción de la carrera tras los accidentes de Lance Stroll y Charles Leclerc. Los daños detectados en el asfalto obligaron a Dirección de Carrera a detener la prueba para reparar una zona crítica del circuito, una situación extremadamente poco habitual en la Fórmula 1 moderna. También repasamos la polémica generada por las sanciones por exceso de velocidad en el pit lane, que afectaron a pilotos como Lewis Hamilton, George Russell, Oscar Piastri, Pierre Gasly y Franco Colapinto, entre otros. Penalizaciones por diferencias mínimas que provocaron un intenso debate sobre la aplicación del reglamento. Además, analizamos la quinta victoria consecutiva de Andrea Kimi Antonelli, el primer punto de la temporada para Fernando Alonso y Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team, así como las consecuencias deportivas que deja una carrera que volvió a demostrar por qué Mónaco sigue siendo uno de los escenarios más imprevisibles del campeonato. Un episodio para entender todas las claves de un Gran Premio que combinó polémica, estrategia, incidentes y debate reglamentario en una de las citas más icónicas de la Fórmula 1.

Was für ein verrückter Großer Preis von Monaco war das denn? 60 Runden passierte nicht viel, dann aber crashten Lance Stroll und Charles Leclerc an der gleichen Stelle, urplötzlich wurde die rote Flagge geschwenkt, weil ein Stück Asphalt in der Rascasse fehlte, es folgt eine schnelle Aktion mit dem Besen, ein stehender Restart und jede Menge Stories, die wir zu besprechen haben. Dennis Lewandowski und Kevin Scheuren tun das auch heute wieder, huldigen dem Sieger Kimi Antonelli, klar, schauen aber auch auf die Unglücksraben des Wochenendes wie George Russell oder auch Lando Norris, die sich mehr ausgerechnet haben.

Lance Stroll just said what F1 management wanted buried.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsYesterday, the drivers spoke up for the first time in this magnitude on the new tweaks and rules Formula 1 and the FIA have cooked up for the 2026 Miami Grand Prix and beyond. However, the mood isn't rosy. Yes, Max Verstappen has had his say as well as others...but Lance Stroll proved to be the hardest hitting Formula One driver of all! Why now, Lance?Well, it could be many reasons, such as Honda frustrated with a lack of engine upgrades coming their way yet. It also revealed something else. Lance Stroll is unstoppable, politically speaking.#f1 #lancestroll #formula1 #formulaone #f12026 #stroll #formula12026 #astonmartinf1 #astonmartin #f1news #f1updates #f1update #f1latest #f1drama #f1gossip #f1driver #f1drivers #f1cars #f1car The Driver F1 Could Never Really Silencehttps://youtu.be/4tWdWMD-a2A Hosted on Acast.

Max Verstappen stelt dat de aanpassingen aan het F1-reglement niet veel verschil maken, maar ziet het als een positieve ontwikkeling dat de FIA en Formule 1 in ieder geval naar de coureurs luisteren. Waar de Nederlander hoopt op grotere veranderingen richting volgend seizoen, zijn de Aston Martin-coureurs een stuk uitgesprokener gebleken tijdens de mediadag in Miami. Lance Stroll verklaarde zelfs dat het reglement fundamenteel verkeerd is en ook in de komende jaren niet meer te redden valt. Volgens hem is het "erg triest" dat F1 mijlenver is verwijderd van wat de sport zou moeten zijn en waren zijn rondjes in een F3-auto tijdens de break "duizend keer leuker" dan de raceweekends met de huidige F1-wagen. Ronald Vording bespreekt het uitgebreid in een nieuwe aflevering van de F1-update, net zoals de weersverwachtingen en wat die mogelijk betekenen voor de race op zondag. Tot slot aandacht voor de updates bij Red Bull, vibraties van Honda en mogelijke valkuilen als de race daadwerkelijk nat verloopt.
Break/Fix's Drive Thru News Episode #67 recaps April's automotive news and oddities, starting with economic turmoil and fuel changes: extended E15 use, ethanol's impact on economy, evaporation, water absorption, and rubber seals, plus brake-fluid hygroscopy and the wider impact of diesel shortages on shipping and heating oil. The hosts criticize Volkswagen's EV strategy (Touareg EV talk, China-only Jetta SUV, ID model struggles, layoffs, potential government aid) while noting nostalgia tie-ins like Hot Wheels R32s.

Oliver Bearman just brought up his crash again.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsIn an interview with F1 podcast Up To Speed, Haas Formula 1 driver Oliver Bearman recalled the actions of Franco Colapinto and deemed them "unacceptable". His interview started to show me a pattern forming. One which we saw with Yuki Tsunoda, Liam Lawson and Lance Stroll last year. Drivers with less standing in Formula One and whose jobs are far less secure are seeing narrative blowback done to them from this driver. Is Ollie Bearman the villain here? No, he's got his own cause to fight for: a Ferrari seat. However, this stance is a very precarious one considering the evidence from Suzuka doesn't really back him up; nor did his team boss or the FIA...not even the telemetry could.#f1 #olliebearman #formula1 #formulone #f12026 #oliverbearman #francocolapinto #colapinto #bearman #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f1teams #haasf1team #alpinef1team #f1team #f1drivers #f1driver #f1cars #f1car #f1gossip #f1podcast #f1drama Oliver Bearman has a media problemhttps://youtu.be/Djc3wINDVoQGet 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAff Hosted on Acast.

Lance Stroll's weekend should worry F1 considerably.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsThe FIA has said changes WILL be made in time for Miami...but not to expect anything major. Instead of overhauls to the Formula 1 regulations for 2026, expect a steady phased approach with plenty of consultation with teams, stakeholders and manufacturers. The drivers? Maybe, maybe not. With Formula One drivers seeking enjoyment from other racing series and doing so in quick fashion, should this be something that those involved in the FIA's top sport be worried about? Or will they care not for change for something they're fast in...or dictate the change as they suit it.#f1 #totowolff #formula1 #formulaone #f12026 #f1news #f1latest #fiaf1 #fia #f1teams #f1team #f1drivers #lancestroll #maxverstappen #gt3 #gtworldchallenge #f1drama #f1gossip #f1regulations Lance Stroll went looking for what F1 forgothttps://youtu.be/ndf6fxpElxEGet 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffCan't watch the ladder?

Kimi Antonelli takes control of the 2026 Formula 1 season with a dominant win at the Japanese Grand Prix, becoming the youngest championship leader in history. But was this a statement drive… or did McLaren throw away a guaranteed victory? In this episode of Paddock 43, we break down everything from the Japan GP, including Antonelli's rise as a genuine title contender, Oscar Piastri's missed opportunity after a perfect start, and whether McLaren's strategy cost them the race. We also dive into the controversial safety car moment following Ollie Bearman's massive crash, the growing concerns around closing speeds in the 2026 regulations, and what it means for driver safety going forward. Plus, we ask the big question: Is Max Verstappen going to leave F1? This is your full F1 Japan GP 2026 review, with analysis, bold takes, and everything you need to know heading into Miami.
WHY did Jonathan Wheatley leave Audi for, likely, ASTON MARTIN? Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsOne of the weirder twists of the 2026 F1 season relates to the team principal of Audi moving to, logic would point toward, a team which is too busy shaking its drivers Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll to pieces? On the surface, it looks bizarre...but when you think about it...the reasons DO make sense. Could it be that Lawrence Stroll's team offers a power structure more in keeping with Formula 1 tradition, unlike Audi's model with Mattia Binotto in charge?One thing is for sure, Aston Martin DO need a new leader to help refresh their public image...of which they are so passionate about. #f1 #fernandoalonso #adriannewey #formula1 #jonathanwheatley #lancestroll #formulaone #f12026 #formula12026 #astonmartinf1 #astonmartin #f1news #adriannewey #f1latest #f1teams #f1drivers #f1updates #f1drama #hondaracing #hondaf1 #honda The Aston & Audi Mess Finally Makes Sensehttps://youtu.be/kyDc3XROL2YGet 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffCan't watch the ladder?

El GP de China dejó una sensación muy distinta a la que había provocado el inicio de temporada en Australia. Sin ser todavía una conclusión definitiva sobre la nueva reglamentación, el fin de semana de Shanghái ofreció carreras mucho más entretenidas, con adelantamientos reales, mejor gestión de la energía y una lectura estratégica más comprensible para los aficionados. El Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 analiza “si ya nos vuelve a gustar la F1”. Las primeras señales, en la sprint. La Sprint ya anticipó que el circuito chino podía ofrecer un escenario diferente. Hubo adelantamientos, toques y errores que mantuvieron el interés, pero fue el domingo cuando realmente apareció la mejor versión del fin de semana. La carrera mostró luchas en pista, cambios de ritmo y pilotos capaces de gestionar la energía de forma inteligente, algo que se percibió especialmente en el caso de Lewis Hamilton, muy hábil en el uso de la batería y en los momentos de ataque. En la clasificación también hubo historia. Kimi Antonelli firmó la pole más joven de la historia, confirmando el gran momento de Mercedes, mientras George Russell partía a su lado. Ferrari parecía algo más cerca que en la cita anterior, mientras Red Bull dejaba dudas incluso a una vuelta. Lo inesperado de la carrera. La carrera estuvo marcada por varios factores inesperados. Antes de apagarse el semáforo se produjeron varias ausencias importantes en la parrilla, con los dos McLaren, Bortoleto y Albon fuera de la salida. El inicio dejó intensos intercambios de posiciones entre los Mercedes y los Ferrari, con adelantamientos agresivos que ofrecieron una imagen más competitiva que la vista en Melbourne. Las estrategias también jugaron un papel importante:a lgunos equipos apostaron por comenzar con neumáticos blandos, lo que provocó paradas muy tempranas, intensificadas después por la salida del coche de seguridad tras la detención de Lance Stroll en pista. Ese momento reorganizó la carrera y abrió un escenario táctico interesante. La segunda mitad del Gran Premio dejó varios momentos destacados. Russell se vio atrapado por los Ferrari tras una relanzada, pero más adelante recuperó posiciones. En las vueltas centrales se produjeron intensas luchas entre Hamilton, Leclerc y el propio Russell, con Hamilton mostrando mayor inteligencia estratégica que su compañero de equipo. Los abandonos más importantes. La carrera también tuvo varios abandonos importantes. Fernando Alonso se retiró en la vuelta 35 por los persistentes problemas de vibraciones en su Aston Martin, mientras Max Verstappen abandonó en la vuelta 47. En la parte media destacó la batalla final entre Franco Colapinto y Carlos Sainz, que permitió al madrileño rescatar dos puntos valiosos. Finalmente, Antonelli logró la victoria por delante de Russell, completando un doblete para Mercedes. Hamilton terminó tercero, seguido de Leclerc, mientras Oliver Bearman firmó una notable quinta posición. La carrera también confirmó el buen momento de Alpine, que logró puntuar con sus dos pilotos, y el sólido rendimiento que está mostrando Haas en este arranque de campeonato. Tras las dudas iniciales (que aún no nos hemos quitado de encima), Shanghái dejó al menos una sensación positiva: esta Fórmula 1 puede ofrecer carreras interesantes, eso sí, cuando el circuito y las condiciones estratégicas acompañan.

ON TODAYS PROGRAM… CONGRATULATIONS TO KIMI FOR POLE AND THE WIN! MERCEDES CLEARLY AHEAD OF THE PACK! WITH FERRARI RIGHT BEHIND FERNANDO SEES THE END OF RACING WITH DRIVING SLOW IN THE CORNERS TO HARVEST KILOWATTS… LAWRENCE STROLL CLOSE TO THE BRAKING POINT COULD SELL ASTON MARTIN TO BYD! UNLIKE MAX…LCH LOVES THE NEW CARS! AND…. THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER WE HAVE: ARVID LINBLAD AND UGO UGOCHUKWU….ENJOY! Kimi Antonelli became the second youngest F1 winner of all time, beating Mercedes team-mate George Russell into second place in Shanghai, while Lewis Hamilton claimed his first ever podium for Ferrari. But it was another chaotic, controversial grand prix under these new 2026 regulations. Neither McLaren made it to the grid, world champion Lando Norris and team-mate Oscar Piastri both suffering from unspecified technical gremlins. After his crash on the formation lap in Melbourne last weekend, Piastri becomes the first driver since team founder Bruce McLaren back in 1969 to fail to start successive races. But they were hardly alone. Williams' Alex Albon and Audi's Gabriel Bortoleto also failed to start, while Red Bull's four-time world champion Max Verstappen was one of three more drivers who failed to finish. Aston Martin's Fernando Alonso had to retire due to excessive vibrations from his power unit – the same vibrations he was worried might lead to “permanent nerve damage” in Australia. The controversial new 50–50 hybrid power units for this season, combined with active aerodynamics, have completely split fans and drivers. Some are enjoying the lack of reliability and hugely increased overtaking, with drivers able to deploy “boost” and “overtake” modes. Others, notably four-time champion Max Verstappen, decry the action as “artificial”, comparing this new era to computer games such as Mario Kart. You certainly cannot accuse these new rules of failing to produce action. China, the second race of the season, was meant to herald a return to something more “normal” after an extraordinary120 overtakes at the season opener in Australia last weekend. But it was just the same. A wild start, in which the fast-starting Ferraris surged to the front from the second row. A wacky first stint, in which the Ferraris and Mercedes battled for supremacy. And then – after a safety car came out on lap 10 when Aston Martin's Lance Stroll retired – Mercedes gradually pulling clear. Antonelli, 19, eventually won by 5.5sec ahead of Russell to become the first Italian winner of a Formula One race for 20 years, since Giancarlo Fisichella at Sepang in 2006, and the second youngest grand prix winner of all time behind Verstappen, while Hamilton was another 19.7sec back, having emerged victorious from a furious tussle with team-mate Charles Leclerc in which they repeatedly swapped positions and went wheel to wheel. Leclerc said it was “fun” while Hamilton called it “one of most enjoyable races” he has ever had. Fans will be split on that sentiment. Briton Oliver Bearman was an impressive fifth for Haas, just shy of his best ever finish, fourth place in Mexico last year. Kimi Antonelli... What an incredible day! This win is a fulfilment of one of the dreams I've had ever since I first drove a go-kart. I want to say thank you to my amazing family and the incredible team at both Lauda Drive and Morgan Drive. I couldn't have done this without any of them, and it means so much to take my first victory in F1. It was a very special moment for all of us. The race itself wasn't easy. I lost a position at the start and had to fight back to get ahead. We then had to manage the Safety Car restart which wasn't easy on the Hard compound. It was difficult to get the tyres working but fortunately we were able to before we were under threat from those behind. This has been a great way to close the first double-header of the season but there is lots of work ahead. We aren't taking anything for granted and will make sure we work hard ahead of Japan and arrive in Suzuka in the strongest position we can. George Russell... Firstly, huge congratulations to Kimi on his first victory in F1. He drove a great race, and it was brilliant to be up there on the podium with him. I am sure it is a moment he will never forget and to do it with the team scoring a 1-2 is fantastic. My own race was not straightforward. I lost positions both at the start and then at the Safety Car restart as we struggled to switch the Hard tyres on. The Ferraris were quick, particularly in the early stages, and we had to get back past them twice. They were fast in all the right places and that made our job a lot more difficult. Happily, we were able to do it each time, but it cost us the chance to fight for the win. It has been a great way to start the season, and we are definitely the team to beat at the moment. We have been put under a lot of pressure at these first two races, and we need to keep pushing hard. The package is strong though so I'm looking forward to heading to the next race in Japan. Kirkwood Outduels Champ Palou To Win Arlington, Take Series Lead ARLINGTON, Texas (Sunday, March 15, 2026) – It's been a long time since a rival driver made Alex Palou blink, but Kyle Kirkwood achieved that rare feat to win the inaugural Java House Grand Prix at Arlington on Sunday. Kirkwood took the NTT INDYCAR SERIES championship lead and earned his first victory of the season despite a sluggish final pit stop by his Andretti Global crew, driving his No. 27 JM Bullion/Gold.com Honda to victory under caution over the No. 10 DHL Chip Ganassi Racing Honda of four-time series champion Palou, who has won the title the last three seasons. SEE: Race Results “That was so incredible,” Kirkwood said. “Man, did we have some pace. This JM Bullion Honda, Andretti, all these guys right here, they gave me the tools today. It's because of this race car we won today, because of teamwork. “One-three-four (finish) for Andretti; we're just so stacked here. I'm so stoked.” Andretti Global placed three drivers into the top four at the finish of the 70-lap street-circuit race around AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys, and Globe Life Field, home of the Texas Rangers. Will Power placed third in the No. 26 TWG AI Honda for his first podium finish at his new team after 16 full-time seasons at Team Penske. Marcus Ericsson, who earned his first career pole Saturday, finished fourth in the No. 28 InPwr Honda. Pato O'Ward rounded out the top five finishers in the No. 5 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet, the highest-placing Chevrolet-powered driver on the 14-turn, 2.73-mile circuit. “This Andretti Honda camp is fricking strong on street courses,” O'Ward said. “We've got a lot of work to do if we want to start winning races on outright pace against them.” Pure pace helped Kirkwood, who started seventh and overcome a tepid final pit stop to overhaul Palou down the stretch. Palou and Kirkwood were running first and second, respectively, when both made their final stops on the preferred three-stop strategy on Lap 49. The Chip Ganassi Racing crew completed Palou's stop in 7.7 seconds, while Kirkwood's service took 9.5 seconds due to a slow change of the right rear wheel. When both drivers returned to full steam on their out lap, Palou led Kirkwood by 2.2 seconds. But Kirkwood used the speed that helped him lead the pre-qualifying practice Saturday, pulling to within .323 of a second of Palou at the start of Lap 55, with both drivers on the more durable Firestone Firehawk tires in a straight-up duel for the win. Kirkwood didn't waste any time flexing muscle, diving under Palou from a long distance in Turn 13 near the end of Lap 55 and making the daring pass stick for the lead. “He did an awesome pass; hats off to him,” Palou said. “It was super clean, and it was pretty impressive. We'll get them in a couple weeks.” Kirkwood then started to pull away, building a five-second lead by Lap 66. Then that margin evaporated when ECR driver Christian Rasmussen nosed his No. 21 Java House Chevrolet into the tire barrier at pit exit on Lap 68, triggering the first full-course yellow of the race. That bunched the field for a one-lap dash to the checkered flag. Kirkwood pulled away on the restart and was able to exhale early in the final lap when the second and final full-course yellow flew due to a collision between the No. 18 BMax Honda of Dale Coyne Racing's Romain Grosjean and the No. 6 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet of Nolan Siegel deep in the field. “Not today,” Palou said when asked if he thought he could have caught Kirkwood on the final lap. “I was pushing really hard on the first and second stint, and I could see that the 27 (Kirkwood) and the 12 (Power) were a little bit faster than us. I was like, ‘Oh, man, it's going to be quite hard.'” Kirkwood then cruised around the circuit one last time under yellow to cheers from the capacity crowd at this event, a joint venture between Penske Entertainment, the Dallas Cowboys and REV Entertainment, the official events partner of the Texas Rangers. He leads the standings by 26 points over second-place Palou after three of 18 races. “It's only race number three, so I'm not looking at the championship,” Kirkwood said. “But it is nice to say it's the first time I've ever led the championship in the INDYCAR SERIES.” The taut nature of the race, with its varying strategies about how often to stop for tires, resulted in terrific parity up front. Kirkwood, Palou and Power each led 16 laps to tie for the race high, with Ericsson fourth with 15 laps led. Caio Collet was the top-finishing rookie, 12th in the No. 4 Combitrans Amazonia Chevrolet fielded by AJ Foyt Racing. Phoenix winner Josef Newgarden, who entered this event in the series lead, fell to third after finishing 15th in the No. 2 PPG Team Penske Chevrolet. After three consecutive race weekends to open the season, the NTT INDYCAR SERIES will get a short break before resuming with the Children's of Alabama Indy Grand Prix powered by AmFirst on March 27-29 at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama.

The 2026 F1 season exploded into life at the Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghai with one of the most chaotic race weekends of the year. In this episode of Paddock 43, we break down everything from a historic win for Kimi Antonelli, to a nightmare weekend for McLaren, and a huge milestone for Lewis Hamilton at Ferrari. The Chinese GP delivered major headlines before the race even started. Four drivers failed to start the race, including both McLarens, leaving Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri stranded on the grid in a shocking reliability failure. Meanwhile, Mercedes rookie Antonelli made Formula 1 history, becoming the youngest pole sitter ever before converting it into a dominant race win for Mercedes. We break down: • Why both McLarens failed to start the race • The brutal start to Oscar Piastri's 2026 season • Why Mercedes suddenly looks like the fastest team on the grid • The moment Lewis Hamilton secured his first Ferrari podium • What Toto Wolff's hilarious “third driver” comment reveals • The championship battle between Antonelli and Russell • The shocking news that Bahrain and Saudi Arabia could be cancelled If you want a fast, entertaining breakdown of the biggest stories from the Chinese Grand Prix, this episode has you covered.

Mercedes y su nuevo motor han llegado para arrasar y lo que vimos en Australia puede ser sólo el principio. En la otra cara de la moneda está Aston Martin, que son el único equipo sin clasificar en el campeonato actual. Al menos Fernando Alonso y Lance Stroll pudieron completar más vueltas de la previstas.

Adrian Newey shifts the focus away from the car...and onto Honda.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsIn a shocking twist, Aston Martin's team principal Adrian Newey conducted a press conference. There he laid his cards on the table and declared his car as unsafe (at least over a set period of laps as said by Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll). As a result, the focus has moved considerably! Whilst Honda has to find a solution, primarily, Newey also claims that if that weren't an issue, his car would already be capable of Q3. ALREADY. Sure, it's not winning races but for Aston? That's not bad to start. And in all this? Fernando is the calmest one in the room.

STAY TUNED FOR SOME GREAT ONE LINERS FROM MACHISMO… THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER…MORE VINTAGE BANTER BETWEEN THE HOST AND NASIR…THIS WEEKS SPECIAL GUEST: MARCUS ERICSSON, MARTIN BRUNDLE, AND MIKI MONRAS DE ESPANA…! Indianapolis 500 Veteran Hucul Dies at 79 INDIANAPOLIS (Friday, Feb. 20, 2026) – Canadian driver Cliff Hucul, a veteran of three Indianapolis 500 starts in the late 1970s, died Feb. 17 on his farm in his native Prince George, British Columbia. He was 79. Hucul made three consecutive starts in “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing” from 1977-79. His best finish came as a rookie in 1977, 22nd in the No. 29 Team Canada McLaren/Offenhauser that Hucul bought after Johnny Rutherford drove it to victory in the 1976 “500.” Hucul completed 72 laps before being sidelined by gearbox problems. He qualified on Bump Day for that race despite touching the wall in practice the previous day and suffering two engine failures during the Month of May, a significant pitfall for his low-budget team. Hucul's best qualifying spot was 18th in 1979, his final “500” start. The small-town driver from northern British Columbia learned his craft by racing stock cars and modified sprint cars at local tracks. He then began racing modifieds and supermodifieds in the Pacific Northwest against drivers that included eventual Indianapolis 500 winner and INDYCAR SERIES champion Tom Sneva and his brother Jerry Sneva. Hucul made 24 total USAC and CART starts between 1977-81, with eight top-10 finishes. Hucul's best finish in the standings was 11th in 1979, when he started the season by placing fifth at Ontario Motor Speedway and a career-best fourth at Texas World Speedway. In 1996, Hucul became a paraplegic after an automobile accident when crossing black ice on a highway in British Columbia. Despite being confined to a wheelchair, Hucul remained active, managing his farm and mentoring many drivers in the area. He was inducted into the Prince George Sports Hall of Fame for his lifetime contributions to auto racing. Hucul is survived by his son, Kelly, and daughter-in-law, Sylvie; daughter, Michele, and many grandchildren. 2026 BAHRAIN TESTING - WEEK 1, DAY 3 MAX VERSTAPPEN “Looking at the test overall, the Team got in a good number of laps on the first day so we were happy with that. We completed a lot of things that we wanted to test with the new Power Unit and the car in general. Today it was a continuation of that plus also trying to explore a little bit more with the car; you go through so many test items that it continues to change and evolve with everything that you are testing. In general, it is all so new that we are still learning a lot, but the car was good. We also have new tyres, so we spent some time looking at different sets and understanding what we need to improve and be better at. With the power unit, looking at the laps we got on the board, the start that we have had is good. That's exactly what we wanted to do and it was not a given. Whether it will be enough to win races, we don't know, we will just focus on ourselves and try to do the best we can, but there is still massive room for improvement. Finally, with the car, we learnt a lot about what worked and what didn't. Our runs also gave us even more ideas for the afternoon with Isack and then for next week, where we can continue to try new things and different set ups.” ISACK HADJAR “The first week here in Bahrain has gone well. Of course, I had to wait a little before getting in the car after Barcelona, but once I did, we were able to put it to the test and really work through what we need ahead of next week and Melbourne. There are so many things to look at, but we're staying on track with our programme so far. True performance and pace are always hard to judge in pre-season, but we can be happy with the reliability we've had from the power unit this week. There are still things to work on in terms of balance and tyre management, but that's completely normal for this time of year. We're working through it together as a Team to get where we want to be for Australia. I've known the people here for a while now, but it's great to be working with them again in an environment like this." ASTON MARTIN The Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team concluded its testing programme at the Bahrain International Circuit today, with Lance Stroll returning to the cockpit of the AMR26 for the final time before the Australian Grand Prix. Lance did not get on track until late in the morning session due to a battery-related issue that had impacted Fernando's running yesterday. Honda carried out simulations on the test bench at HRC Sakura before the car returned to the track. Due to a shortage of power unit parts, the run plan was very limited and consisted only of short stints. Lance Stroll “It's been a challenging couple of weeks here in Bahrain, and today's limited running wasn't the way we wanted to finish the second test. It's clear the car isn't where we want it to be performance-wise, and we know there's a lot of work ahead in the coming weeks and months. There's a long season ahead, and we'll keep pushing flat out to unlock more performance. I want to say a big thank you to everyone trackside and back at the AMRTC for the work that's gone in so far. It's not where we want to be right now, but I know how determined this team is. We'll stick together, rise to the challenge and keep working until we deliver the performance we are looking for.” WILLIAMS F1 2026 Bahrain pre-season testing – Day 3 James Vowles, Team Principal: Another solid day of running and mileage. It's great to see that across the last six days of testing, we've been predominantly tyre and time limited, and able to complete the full programme that we wanted. That's just a testament to the hard work of the teams, both here and in Grove, making sure that we made up for lost time. No one truly knows where all the performance lies. That's what Melbourne is all about, so I can't wait to go there, to gain a further understanding of where we are. What I know for sure, though, is we have work to do. There's no doubt about it. We've put ourselves on the back foot. But my assurance to everyone is that we have an aggressive programme lining up in front of us in order to make sure that we extract as much performance in this car as possible over the forthcoming months. Carlos Sainz: The past six days of testing in Bahrain has been one of the most interesting and challenging tests that I've been part of, given the new regulations and number of things we had to learn. The progress from day one has been significant, although there are still going to be things to understand and solve at the start of the season. We go into the first half of the year with lower expectations than 2025 knowing that we'll be starting slightly on the back foot. However, I'm really looking forward to getting started and focusing on improving the cars through the year to become more competitive. Bring on Melbourne! Alex Albon: It's been a relatively smooth test here in Bahrain. We got some good mileage under our belts and tested everything we wanted to get out of the car, so I'm feeling more ready for Melbourne. There's still a lot we need to understand and plenty of performance left on the table that we need to extract, but I'm glad the tests went to plan. It's now all about maximising the next few days to prepare for the first race of the year! THIS WEEK'S INTERVIEW WITH MIKI MONRAS... Miki Monrás on battling Bottas and Ricciardo in the late 2000s and the rising cost of junior racing In the late 2000s, Miki Monrás was one of Spain's brightest prospects on the junior single-seater ladder, trading blows with the likes of Daniel Ricciardo, Valtteri Bottas and António Félix da Costa in Formula Renault and GP3. But while his rivals pushed on towards F1 or careers in GTs, the Spaniard's single-seater journey came to an abrupt halt in 2011. Feeder Series caught up with Monrás to reflect on the times he rubbed shoulders with greatness, the challenges of racing in the post–financial crisis era, and life beyond motorsport. By Anabelle Bremner Back in the noughties, the path from karting to Formula 1 looked nothing like it does today. There was no standardised Formula 4, no carefully managed ladder – just a patchwork of championships that rewarded those brave enough, and wealthy enough, to dive straight in. Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 was as deep as it got: 40-car grids stacked with future stars, the proving ground where Pierre Gasly, Nyck de Vries and Lando Norris would come to cut their teeth. But before all of them, it was Monrás in the thick of it. He made his single-seater debut in late 2007, the result of years spent chasing speed. His first taste of racing, in fact, came on two wheels – on a motocross bike, inspired by his father, who had raced professionally in Spain and Europe. At the age of eight, Monrás joined a motocross camp, and it wasn't long before karting came calling. “After the first race, I really enjoyed it,” he recalls. “I remember it was Christmastime and I asked for a motocross scooter and for a go-kart. So I finally got the go-kart, and that's the way I started. Then I started racing in Catalonia, and I just moved through Spain and Europe and all the world championships until formula.” Single-seater racing, however, would prove a unique beast. Shortly before turning 16, Monrás moved straight from karting into Formula Renault 2.0, in which the competition was fierce. “Normally at that age you'd go before to a category not straight to 2.0,” he said. “My first year I was racing with Bottas, I was racing with Ricciardo, I was racing with [Andrea] Caldarelli – really good drivers.… I was racing against people that were already racing for two years in single-seaters. That was a big difference.”His first Eurocup campaign, in 2008, proved a challenging one. He was scoreless for his first five rounds with the Hitech Junior Team (no relation to the current Hitech) before a switch to SG Formula brought him six points in the final two rounds. Valtteri Bottas, then of Motopark Academy, went on to claim that year's title after a close fight involving Ricciardo, Caldarelli and Roberto Merhi. The next year brought Monrás a decidedly better season and three podiums with SG Formula, owned by Mercedes Junior Team advisor Stéphane Guerin. He wound up fifth overall in a season dominated by a fierce three-way fight between Félix da Costa, Jean-Éric Vergne and Albert Costa – the last of whom ultimately took the title. Racing against so much talent at such a young age left Monrás with plenty of perspective on what might have been. “Ricciardo was my teammate. Jean-Éric Vergne was my teammate. I raced with Da Costa, Bottas, with Magnussen, so many people that have been racing each other and winning races,” he said. “[I] think if I changed something at that point, maybe I would be in Formula 1, but who knows. Maybe yes, maybe no. “But at that time, it was really difficult times because it was 2010, '11, '12, where there was also a big crisis in the world, especially in Europe. It was really difficult for Spanish drivers to get the sponsors and the money to race.” The financial squeeze triggered by the 2008 global financial crisis left Monrás and many of his peers in a precarious position. Several teams, such as SG Formula, shut their doors in the wake of the crisis amidst an already shifting landscape in junior racing. “It's been changing a lot from that time until now. When I was racing Eurocup 2.0, one time we were like 48 drivers, I remember. 2008 at Spa. It was a massive level and so many drivers wanted to go in,” he said. “Eurocup was really high level, I would say maybe [comparable] to Formula 4 about the car and the lap times. “Motorsport has changed a lot in the last few years. It's more expensive. At that time, Eurocup was also expensive, but I think Formula 4 is around €700,000 more or less, maybe more now. It's quite expensive. Back then, I think Eurocup was around €300,000 or €250,000, so there was a massive difference. A lot more people could race at that time.” After two and a half years competing in various Formula Renault series, Monrás stepped up to GP3 in 2010. The inaugural season, won by eventual F1 driver Esteban Gutiérrez, came with another steep learning curve. Monrás managed two podiums and a 10th-place finish in the standings, but the step up exposed the limits of what talent alone could achieve in a field packed with hungry, well-backed drivers. “When I raced GP3, that was the first year of the championship, so it was a new championship for all of the teams. I also raced with Arden, which was a new team in the category, so it made it a bit difficult,” he said. “During testing, I remember I was flying in GP3, and then suddenly in some races there was such a huge difference with some other cars and drivers. It was difficult sometimes. … I think this is always present in motorsport in all categories. You will find some kind of differences within cars and teams. It just will always be there.” Challenging as it was, that season had its highs for Monrás. A recovery drive in Spa's characteristic rain remains a fond memory for the Spaniard. “I had a really bad qualifying because there were some yellow flags,” he explained. “Because there were 30 cars, it was easy to find yellow flags if you're waiting for the last minutes in qualifying. I finished [ninth in] race one, and in race two it started raining really heavily after five laps. I went from P10 to P3, nearly fighting for the win in the last lap against Rossi and Tambay. That was a really good race.” After a season in GP3, Monrás moved up a rung on the ladder to Formula Two. At the time, the feeder series landscape was fragmented. GP2 and Formula Renault 3.5 offered established paths to Formula 1, while the MotorSport Vision's FIA Formula Two Championship, which first ran in 2009, aimed to do the same with a more affordable package. “Formula Two at that point was very competitive, economically speaking,” Monrás said. “It was a lot cheaper to race in Formula Two than race in GP2 at that moment or 3.5 because it was like all one team. All the cars were one team with different engineers, and that made it low cost for the time. “A lot of drivers went to it because of that. They were racing in the best tracks, same as World Series and similar to GP2, and the car was competitive. Maybe not as competitive as GP2 or 3.5 because it was a bit slower, but it was really competitive and really fast, on the straight especially.” “In that time, what they were saying was it was very equal. You had one engineer for three cars, you were sharing data with these three cars, and it was all under the same team. You can always find differences in motorsport. Maybe not a difference to make one car win and one car P15, but you can still always find two-tenths difference in similar cars, and two tenths, sometimes it's a lot of time,” he said. “The cars were on the same team, but each engineer was doing the set-up for his driver. The set-up I was using and maybe the set-up Bortolotti was using, he had won the championship maybe from our different set-ups. Every race, you changed engineers. Every weekend, you were rotating engineers so at the end of the season, everybody worked with everyone.” By 2012, the funding had dried up. Monrás was left sponsorless and unable to compete in Formula Two. He sampled GT racing in the Blancpain Endurance Series and tested with both Audi Sport and Atech GP, but no program materialised. From there, Monrás transitioned into driver coaching and team management – mostly with the AV Formula team owned by his manager, Adrian Vallés – and eventually “moved on” from motorsport around 2017. “I was working also with McLaren Automotive, but it was not motorsport. It was automotive, developing road cars, really competitive cars. After that I decided to stop because I wanted to follow a new career professionally, and I moved onto real estate which I have always been [involved with] because of my family, so that's why I decided to move over,” he said. “I now work in a real estate company which I own with some partners, and that's my day-to-day nowadays.” After years climbing the ladder in lockstep with some of the sport's future stars, Monrás has found a new rhythm – one that's decidedly less fast, but no less his own. Yet his career remains a reminder of the talent that defined an era: a Spaniard who went wheel to wheel with the likes of Ricciardo, Bottas, and Vergne, racing in some of the deepest junior grids of the 2000s and 2010s. In the story of that generation, Monrás may no longer be on track, but he's never far from the memory of it all.
El cuarto día de pruebas de pretemporada en Baréin dejó una intensa jornada de trabajo en pista, marcada por el elevado kilometraje de la mayoría de escuderías, la proliferación de novedades técnicas y, en contraste, los problemas persistentes de Aston Martin, que firmó una de las actuaciones más discretas del día. Todo ello y más en el segundo episodio de la semana en el Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1. Día de contrastes. Con una parrilla centrada en validar configuraciones y paquetes aerodinámicos de cara al inicio del campeonato, el protagonismo se repartió entre el rendimiento constante de varios equipos y las dificultades mecánicas que limitaron a otros. La mañana transcurrió sin interrupciones destacables y con un programa de rodaje muy estructurado. Tras las habituales tandas aerodinámicas iniciales con parrillas de sensores y parafina para analizar flujos y correlaciones en pista, los equipos pasaron rápidamente a pruebas de configuración. Primero llegaron las tandas cortas, de apenas cuatro o cinco giros, seguidas por stints medios y, a partir de media mañana, simulaciones más largas de entre diez y quince vueltas. Ferrari, McLaren o Williams alternaron trabajo de puesta a punto con simulaciones de carrera, mientras que otros equipos priorizaron la validación de piezas nuevas y ajustes finos del setup. Simulaciones de carrera, completadas. Charles Leclerc concentró buena parte de la mañana en tandas cortas para comprobar evoluciones antes de completar tres tandas de simulación de carrera con neumático medio. Lando Norris replicó una estrategia similar con compuestos duros y el prototipo disponible, mientras pilotos como Albon, Gasly o Hülkenberg alternaron programas mixtos entre pruebas de rendimiento y fiabilidad. Pérez, por su parte, logró completar una tanda larga con los duros, aunque posteriormente se vio obligado a detener su programa por problemas técnicos. Alonso habla del futuro inmediato. El caso más preocupante volvió a ser el de Aston Martin. Fernando Alonso apenas pudo acumular rodaje debido a fallos en la unidad de potencia, limitándose a tandas breves con neumático medio antes de ceder el monoplaza a Lance Stroll por la tarde. La situación se agravó con una bandera roja provocada por un trompo del canadiense, que perdió repentinamente la parte delantera del coche. Pese a las dificultades, Alonso trató de enviar un mensaje de calma al asegurar que “todo tiene solución a corto y medio plazo”. ¿Quiénes están más avanzados? En términos de kilometraje, Mercedes lideró la jornada con 145 vueltas, seguido de Racing Bulls y McLaren. Ferrari, Alpine, Audi y Williams también superaron el centenar, evidenciando un día productivo en términos de recopilación de datos. En el extremo opuesto, Aston Martin y Cadillac registraron los programas más limitados, lastrados por problemas técnicos, mientras Red Bull también sufrió incidencias que condicionaron parte de su plan, aunque lograron recuperar actividad en la fase final del día. La sesión vespertina se centró en tandas largas y consistencia en ritmo, especialmente para McLaren y Mercedes, mientras varios pilotos alternaban pruebas de rendimiento y simulaciones de carrera. Nadie recurrió al neumático blando durante la jornada, una señal clara de que el enfoque seguía siendo técnico y de acumulación de datos más que de búsqueda de tiempos. Al cierre del día, la FIA llevó a cabo los habituales ensayos de procedimientos de carrera (virtual safety car, coche de seguridad, bandera roja y prácticas de salida), donde algunos monoplazas mostraron dificultades en arrancadas en parado que podrían ser relevantes de cara a la primera cita del calendario. Técnica y actualizaciones. En el apartado técnico, el protagonismo fue absoluto. Mercedes, Red Bull, McLaren, Ferrari y Racing Bulls desplegaron instrumentación aerodinámica desde primera hora, mientras Audi trabajó con parafina para estudiar flujos. Varias escuderías estrenaron paquetes de actualización importantes: Ferrari introdujo cambios en el difusor; Racing Bulls presentó modificaciones en ala delantera, airbox y estructura del chasis; y Mercedes probó una batería de evoluciones que incluían nuevos deflectores, cambios en el suelo, branquias en los pontones y ajustes en los frenos delanteros. Actualidad institucional. Por si fuera poco, la actualidad institucional también tuvo su peso en la jornada. En Baréin se celebró la primera reunión de la Comisión de Fórmula 1 de cara al reglamento de 2026, con presencia de la FIA y Formula One Management. Los equipos coincidieron en la necesidad de seguir evaluando aspectos técnicos antes de la aprobación definitiva de las normas, destacando impresiones iniciales positivas sobre la reducción de peso y dimensiones de los futuros monoplazas. Se decidió no introducir cambios inmediatos hasta contar con más datos, mientras continúan las evaluaciones sobre gestión energética, procedimientos de salida y sistemas de carrera. El cuarto día de tests, por tanto, nos deja una fotografía clara: una parrilla inmersa en pleno desarrollo técnico y acumulación de información, con muchos equipos avanzando en fiabilidad y rendimiento, y otros, especialmente Aston Martin, obligados a resolver problemas urgentes antes del arranque del campeonato. Lo que está claro es que en Baréin se empiezan a perfilar jerarquías y, sobre todo, preocupaciones reales de cara a la temporada.

…ON TODAYS PROGRAM… MAX SAYS THE NEW CARS ARE ANTI-RACING, NOT FUN TO DRIVE FORMULA E ON STEROIDS!!! LCH SAYS NEW CARS SLOWER THAN GP2!! AAAHHH! AND RIDICULOUSLY COMPLICATED!! THE FANS WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND IT!!! LANCE STROLL INSISTS ASTON MARTIN 4 SECONDS SLOWER THAN LEADERS…sorry FERNANDO… ALPINE AND AUDI DISPLAY INTERESTING APPROACH TO REAR WINGS AND SIDE PODS….AND FERNANDO…THE ASTON. MARTIN CHEF COULD DRIVE THESE CARS!! THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER…MORE VINTAGE BANTER BETWEEN THE HOST AND NASIR…THIS WEEKS SPECIAL GUEST: MIKA SALO AND PAUL VALLHAUG FROM NORWAY…! 2026 Bahrain Pre-Season Test - Day Three The Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team has completed its first week of testing at the Bahrain International Circuit, with Lance Stroll returning to the wheel of the AMR26. Lance headed out on track at approximately 10:30, completing running across both the morning and afternoon sessions, as the team focused on aero mapping as well as low and high fuel runs. He completed a total of 72 laps during the day. Across the three days in Bahrain, the AMR26 completed a total of 206 laps between Lance and Fernando, allowing the team to gather valuable data during the opening week of testing. The drivers will return to the cockpit next week for the second phase of testing, before final preparations begin for Melbourne. Mike Krack “After completing the shakedown in Barcelona, we have now finished our first test of the new season. We ran into some issues earlier in the week, and that's exactly why we go testing - especially with new regulations. This whole package is very fresh, so it takes time to understand all the different elements and identify where we need to improve. A big thank you to the entire team for the hours worked across the three days of testing. We are realistic in knowing that there is a lot of performance still to unlock in this package, and it is important that we analyse all of our learnings ahead of next week. Williams F1 team 2026 Bahrain pre-season testing – Day 3 Alex Albon: We knew it was going to be a challenging three days getting up to speed and starting to understand the new car and regulations. The positive is that we got quite a few laps under our belt and the car seems reliable, which is never easy for the first week of testing. On my side, getting to grips with a new car has been a challenge, but I am enjoying the intricacies of it. There's a lot of improvement to be done and a lot to learn to bring a better package for the next round of testing, so it will be a busy next week of really digging in to the data. Carlos Sainz: Overall, it's been good to test the car properly these past days and be able to do as many laps as we have done. We are still playing catch up on certain things, but doing over 210 laps has given me a much better understanding of what we can expect this year. The cars feel very different and it's going to be a challenging season, but this is nothing new and I'm up for the challenge. It's still early days to discuss performance in detail and compare ourselves to our direct competitors, but it is clear that the gap between teams is not as tight as last year, at least not for now. What is important for me is that we have identified the main areas we want to focus on in the upcoming weeks and I hope that we can improve gradually as we get closer to Melbourne. There is a lot of work ahead of us as a team so there is no time to lose. Théophile Nael leads the way on the final day of the Barcelona F3 pre-season test Campos Racing's Théophile Nael finished with the fastest lap on the final day of the Barcelona pre-season test, completing a 1:27.525 in the morning session when times were at their quickest. In the afternoon, it was Gerrard Xie who ended up at the top of the leaderboard with a 1:29.676 for DAMS Lucas Oil. MORNING Similar to Day 2, the teams started with Qualifying runs on old Hard tyres, but before the first set of laps could be completed, the Red Flags were out with James Wharton stuck in gravel between Turns 7 and 8. However, once the PREMA Racing driver was back in the pitlane, action resumed and Patrick Heuzenroeder went fastest with a 1:29.354. The drivers then had new tyres fitted to their cars for their next set of laps, and this time it was Noah Stromsted on top by just 0.034s to Campos Racing's Ugo Ugochukwu, with a 1:27.620. Ugochukwu improved on his next attempt, but still wound up in second place, cutting the gap to the TRIDENT driver to just 0.020s, while teammate Théophile Nael moved up to third ahead of Freddie Slater. With the majority of the field back in the pitlane, Nael returned to the track for more shot at a Qualifying lap and completed a 1:27.525 to go fastest by just 0.095s. The teams then turned their attentions to long run performance, meaning that no one bettered Nael, who led the way ahead of Stromsted, Ugochukwu, Slater and Brando Badoer in the morning. AFTERNOON Long runs kicked off the afternoon session with Van Amersfoort Racing's Enzo Deligny setting the early pace with a 1:32.430. That time was then beaten by Rodin Motorsport's Brando Badoer as the session approached the 40-minute mark, and just before José Garfias stopped on track at Turn 6, bringing out the Red Flags. Once the session resumed, AIX Racing went to the top of the leaderboard, with Brad Benavides' 1:31.573 putting him ahead of Fernando Barrichello by 0.115s. Running was paused once again just as the second hour was about to start, with Slater having stopped on track at Turn 12, causing the marshals to wave the Red Flags. Race runs resumed as the drivers looked to make the most of the track time before the test ended. However, Fionn McLaughlin then got stuck in the gravel trap at the final corner, leading to another Red Flag stoppage. Green flags were waved with over an hour to go in the day, with long run mileage still the top priority. However, heading into the final 30 minutes, Brando Badoer and then Matteo De Palo went quickest. The TRIDENT driver completed a 1:30.910, which was over half a second quicker than Hitech's Tim Tramnitz. DAMS Lucas Oil then went faster with just over five minutes to go, Nicola Lacorte leading the way with a 1:29.676, over half a second faster than teammate Gerrard Xie. There were no further improvements for the rest of the session, with Lacorte on top ahead of Xie, De Palo, Tramnitz and Badoer. That wraps up pre-season testing with the drivers next out on track at Round 1 in Melbourne from March 6-8. 2026 FIA FORMULA 3 CHAMPIONSHIP – BARCELONA CIRCUIT, PRE-SEASON TESTING: DAY 3, MORNING SESSION | | DRIVER | LICENCE | TEAM | LAPTIME | LAPS | | 1 | Theophile Nael | FRA | Campos Racing | 1:27.525 | 46 | | 2 | Noah Stromste | DEN | TRIDENT | 1:27.620 | 33 | | 3 | Ugo Ugochukwu | USA | Campos Racing | 1:27.640 | 46 | | 4 | Freddie Slater | GBR | TRIDENT | 1:27.724 | 37 | | 5 | Brando Badoer | ITA | Rodin Motorsport | 1:27.891 | 26 | | 6 | Patrick Heuzenroeder | AUS | Campos Racing | 1:27.926 | 45 | | 7 | Brad Benavides | USA | AIX Racing | 1:27.979 | 30 | | 8 | Tuukka Taponen | FIN | MP Motorsport | 1:28.075 | 18 | | 9 | Louis Sharp | NZL | PREMA Racing | 1:28.085 | 40 | | 10 | Nicola Lacorte | ITA | DAMS Lucas Oil | 1:28.090 | 22 | | 11 | Taito Kato | JPN | ART Grand Prix | 1:28.120 | 19 | | 12 | Christian Ho | SGP | Rodin Motorsport | 1:28.132 | 27 | | 13 | Jin Nakamura | JPN | Hitech | 1:28.144 | 41 | | 14 | Pedro Clerot | BRA | Rodin Motorsport | 1:28.164 | 28 | | 15 | Tim Tramnitz | GER | Hitech | 1:28.165 | 44 | | 16 | Maciej Gladysz | POL | ART Grand Prix | 1:28.183 | 17 | | 17 | Matteo De Palo | ITA | TRIDENT | 1:28.286 | 40 | | 18 | Enzo Deligny | FRA | Van Amersfoort Racing | 1:28.315 | 26 | | 19 | James Wharton | AUS | PREMA Racing | 1:28.338 | 41 | | 20 | Nandhavud Bhirombhakdi | THA | DAMS Lucas Oil | 1:28.343 | 29 | | 21 | Kanato Le | JPN | ART Grand Prix | 1:28.367 | 20 | | 22 | Yevan David | SRI | AIX Racing | 1:28.409 | 27 | | 23 | Fernando Barrichello | BRA | AIX Racing | 1:28.463 | 26 | | 24 | Alessandro Giusti | FRA | MP Motorsport | 1:28.463 | 20 | | 25 | Hiyu Yamakoshi | JPN | Van Amersfoort Racing | 1:28.482 | 35 | | 26 | Fionn Mclaughlin | IRL | Hitech | 1:28.562 | 39 | | 27 | Jose Garfias | MEX | PREMA Racing | 1:28.586 | 40 | | 28 | Bruno Del Pino | ESP | Van Amersfoort Racing | 1:28.590 | 28 | | 29 | Mattia Colnaghi | ARG | MP Motorsport | 1:28.965 | 21 | | 30 | Gerrard Xie | CHN | DAMS Lucas Oil | 1:28.976 | 44 | 2026 FIA FORMULA 3 CHAMPIONSHIP – BARCELONA CIRCUIT, PRE-SEASON TESTING: DAY 3, AFTERNOON SESSION | | DRIVER | LICENCE | TEAM | LAPTIME | LAPS | | 1 | Nicola Lacorte | ITA | DAMS Lucas Oil | 1:29.676 | 35 | | 2 | Gerrard Xie | CHN | DAMS Lucas Oil | 1:30.275 | 26 | | 3 | Matteo De Palo | ITA | TRIDENT | 1:30.910 | 23 | | 4 | Tim Tramnitz | GER | Hitech | 1:31.285 | 35 | | 5 | Brando Badoer | ITA | Rodin Motorsport | 1:31.473 | 40 | | 6 | Brad Benavides | USA | AIX Racing | 1:31.573 | 32 | | 7 | Fernando Barrichello | BRA | AIX Racing | 1:31.688 | 46 | | 8 | Noah Stromsted | DEN | TRIDENT | 1:31.717 | 37 | | 9 | Ugo Ugochukwu | USA | Campos Racing | 1:31.806 | 51 | | 10 | Christian Ho | SGP | Rodin Motorsport | 1:31.997 | 39 | | 11 | Yevan David | SRI | AIX Racing | 1:32.052 | 29 | | 12 | Theophile Nael | FRA | Campos Racing | 1:32.230 | 47 | | 13 | Freddie Slater | GBR | TRIDENT | 1:32.370 | 23 | | 14 | Jose Garfias | MEX | PREMA Racing | 1:32.413 | 46 | | 15 | Tuukka Taponen | FIN | MP Motorsport | 1:32.415 | 66 | | 16 | Enzo Deligny | FRA | Van Amersfoort Racing | 1:32.430 | 53 | | 17 | Taito Kato | JPN | ART Grand Prix | 1:32.476 | 52 | | 18 | Maciej Gladysz | POL | ART Grand Prix | 1:32.488 | 51 | | 19 | Pedro Clerot | BRA | Rodin Motorsport | 1:32.499 | 37 | | 20 | Hiyu Yamakoshi | JPN | Van Amersfoort Racing | 1:32.502 | 53 | | 21 | Fionn Mclaughlin | IRL | Hitech | 1:32.608 | 21 | | 22 | Patrick Heuzenroeder | AUS | Campos Racing | 1:32.644 | 50 | | 23 | Alessandro Giusti | FRA | MP Motorsport | 1:32.660 | 31 | | 24 | Bruno Del Pino | SPN | Van Amersfoort Racing | 1:32.704 | 54 | | 25 | Mattia Colnaghi | ARG | MP Motorsport | 1:32.974 | 54 | | 26 | Kanato Le | JPN | ART Grand Prix | 1:32.995 | 48 | | 27 | Louis Sharp | NLZ | PREMA Racing | 1:33.058 | 49 | | 28 | Jin Nakamura | JPN | Hitech | 1:33.181 | 32 | | 29 | James Wharton | AUS | PREMA Racing | 1:33.199 | 48 | | 30 | Nandhavud Bhirombhakdi | THA | DAMS Lucas Oil | 1:33.742 | 51 |

La segunda jornada de pruebas en Baréin ha vuelto a poner de manifiesto que esta pretemporada está definida por la adaptación a la nueva normativa híbrida y por una fiabilidad todavía frágil en varios equipos. El Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 nos hace un análisis profundo de lo que está ocurriendo en esta primera semana de pretemporada. Unos bien y otros mal Aunque el día arrancó con sobresaltos, también dejó las primeras señales claras del rendimiento de algunos motores, especialmente el Ferrari, y el esperado regreso de Red Bull a pista tras una mañana prácticamente en blanco. La sesión matinal comenzó con una bandera roja temprana protagonizada por Sergio Pérez, cuyo Cadillac se detuvo alrededor de las 8:15. El incidente, no obstante, quedó en un susto: antes de las nueve ya estaba completando vueltas. Quien sí tardó en aparecer fue Red Bull, que permaneció en el box debido a un problema rutinario detectado durante el montaje nocturno del RB20. No rodaron hasta el último minuto de la mañana, donde Isack Hadjar se limitó a hacer una vuelta de instalación. Los problemas se extendieron también a Aston Martin, nuevamente protagonista negativo del día. Fernando Alonso rodó poco por la tarde y el equipo reconoció abiertamente la magnitud de su déficit. Después de acumular cerca de 400 kilómetros menos que la mayoría de sus rivales (sumando Barcelona y Baréin), Lance Stroll fue contundente: “Tenemos que seguir empujando. Son problemas de motor, de equilibrio, de grip... es una combinación de cosas”, admitió. El canadiense incluso llegó a situar su desventaja en torno a cuatro o cuatro segundos y medio por vuelta, aunque subrayó que es imposible conocer la carga de combustible del resto. La sesión vespertina también dejó otras incidencias: una pieza desprendida del Audi R26 de Gabriel Bortoleto provocó una bandera roja a las 14:35, seguida poco después por otra neutralización debido a problemas técnicos en el Alpine de Pierre Gasly. La polémica del motor Mercedes. Además, el día ha estado marcado por nuevas informaciones sobre el controvertido motor Mercedes de 2026: se empieza a perfilar un acuerdo temporal entre FIA, FOM y los fabricantes para limitar el famoso “truco” sin prohibirlo por completo, a la espera de una resolución definitiva en 2027. En pista, las escuderías han continuado centradas en el aprendizaje energético. Durante las primeras horas se vieron tandas cortas de 5 a 6 vueltas, destinadas a calibrar la recuperación, los mapas motor y el comportamiento del lift and coast. El caso más llamativo ha sido el de Charles Leclerc, que alcanzó los 324 km/h para luego levantar claramente antes del final de recta. El motor Ferrari demostró una velocidad punta muy competitiva y, sobre todo, una consistencia que empieza a llamar la atención de todo el paddock. Mucho más kilometraje. Con el paso del día los equipos han aumentado el kilometraje con stints de entre 11 y 17 vueltas. Destacan las tandas de Norris, Hülkenberg, Gasly, Lawson y Albon, mientras Alonso completaba más vueltas que en todo el día anterior, aunque siempre en programas alejados del rendimiento puro y centrados en la gestión de energía. Las dificultades de pilotaje volvieron a ser protagonistas: numerosos pilotos sufrieron salidas de pista debido a comportamientos impredecibles al soltar la potencia, un síntoma de lo exigente que será el nuevo reglamento. Carlos Sainz lo resumió con claridad: “Los coches cambian el punto de frenada de una vuelta a otra”. Alguna situación curiosa. La coordinación entre equipos también ha sido visible hoy. Norris y Albon, ambos con motor Mercedes, estuvieron rodando juntos durante varias vueltas para probar el modo adelantamiento, siguiéndose de cerca en la recta principal para evaluar diferencias de despliegue eléctrico. El stint más largo del día volvió a ser obra de Norris, con 15 vueltas consecutivas. Por otra parte, Red Bull ha cerrado la jornada con mejor sabor de boca: por la tarde, Hadjar acumuló rodaje real y Verstappen tomará el relevo mañana. En Aston Martin, pese a las pocas vueltas de Alonso, hubo un detalle alentador: el asturiano salió en su último stint con velocidad y luces encendidas, y el coche más cerrado, señal de que el equipo empieza a desbloquear parte de la potencia del AMR26, aparentemente sin riesgo de rotura, sino por ajustes de software y electrónica. Finalmente, en el plano aerodinámico, el día no nos ha dejado novedades significativas, aunque sí se vieron parrillas de sensores en Racing Bulls, McLaren y Ferrari, además de parafina en el Audi. Lo más interesante: los difusores y otras áreas ocultas reveladas durante las pausas, que serán analizadas en detalle en el artículo técnico del viernes. La tercera jornada contará con rotaciones habituales: Norris y Piastri en McLaren, Leclerc por la mañana con Ferrari y Hamilton por la tarde, Russell y Antonelli dividiéndose el Mercedes, y Verstappen regresando en Red Bull antes de ceder el coche nuevamente a Hadjar. Con dos días completados y sólo uno por delante, las escuderías afrontan ya la recta final de estos decisivos tests de 2026.

…ON TODAYS PROGRAM… TRUMP SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER DESIGNATING INDY CAR RACE THRU THE STREETS OF WASHINGTON DC! CELEBRATING THE 250TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE USA!! WITH BARCELONA TESTING BEHIND US…WHO IS AHEAD? MERCEDES and FORD! FERNANDO SAYS…WE LEARN SOMETHING FROM ADRIAN NEWEY EVERYDAY! THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER…MORE VINTAGE BANTER BETWEEN THE HOST AND NASIR…THIS WEEKS SPECIAL GUEST: JOHN WATSON!!! John Watson's Formula 1 debut at 1973 British Grand Prix Watson's first F1 car was a March-Cosworth 721 which he drove on the non-championship Victory Race at Brands Hatch. A year after, he was ready to move up to F1, making his debut in the British GP where he drove a Brabham BT37, and after that competed in the US Grand Prix with Brabham BT42. He retired in both races. In 1974, he drove for Goldie Hexagon Racing team with a Brabham BT42 and BT44, scoring his first world championship point with a sixth place at Monaco. He scored a total of six points that season. He failed to score points in the following year when he drove for Team Surtees before switching to the American Penske squad. First Formula 1 victory with Penske at Austrian Grand Prix He secured his first podium with the third place at the 1976 French Grand Prix. Later that season came his first victory, driving for Penske in the Austrian Grand Prix. After the race, he shaved off his beard, the result of a bet with the team owner Roger Penske. In 1977 and 1978, Watson raced with Brabham-Alfa Romeo machinery, in the first year for Martini Racing and in the second for Parmalat Racing Team. In 1977, problems with the car, accidents and a disqualification resulted with Watson racing the full distance in only five of the 17 races. In 1978, he reached three podiums and notched up 25 points to earn sixth place in the championship. In McLaren Team since 1979 For the season of 1979, Watson moved to Marlboro McLaren Team. The next two seasons were without any victories, and finally in 1981, at British Grand Prix at Silverstone, Watson secured his second F1 win. It was a maiden victory for the trend-setting carbon fibre composite monocoque McLaren MP4 car, designed by John Barnard, and managed by the team's new boss, Ron Dennis. New monococque saved his life. Later in the season, the strength of the carbon fibre monocoque was demonstrated when John had a fiery crash at Monza during the Italian Grand Prix. He started seventh on the grid and raced for 19 laps. Watson lost control of the car, coming out of the high speed Lesmo bends and crashed backwards into the barriers. The car was halved but Watson walked away unhurt. Similar accidents had previously proven fatal, but Watson was uninjured, and that lucky break proved the strength of the new carbon fiber construction. Third place in the 1982 F1 championship His most successful year was 1982, when he finished third in the drivers' championship, winning two Grands Prix (Zolder and Detroit). Most impressive was his victory at the first ever Detroit Grand, on a tight and twisty track that was difficult to pass through. Watson worked his way from the 17th starting position on the grid and charged through the field scoring a victory. Master-class victory at Long Beach Watson made a similar master-class victory the following year at the final Formula One race in Long Beach (USA). On the street circuit, he started from 22nd on the grid and succeeded to win the race. Watson's final victory also included a fight for the position with his teammate Niki Lauda, who had started the race at the 23rd spot, but Watson ultimately finished 27 seconds ahead of his famous teammate. ASTON MARTIN ARAMCO COMPLETE BARCELONA SHAKEDOWN Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, Spain, 30 January 2026: The Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team continued its Shakedown programme at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya today, with Fernando Alonso getting behind the wheel of the AMR26 for the first time. Fernando headed out on track at approximately 09:30 and completed running across both the morning and afternoon sessions, with the team focused on mileage accumulation and initial reliability checks. He completed a total of 61 laps across the day. Across the two days of running in Barcelona, both Fernando and Lance Stroll have now driven the AMR26, allowing the team to build an early baseline understanding of the car. The team now concludes its Shakedown programme and looks ahead to the season launch and livery reveal on 9 February, followed by pre-season testing in Bahrain in a couple of weeks, before final preparations begin for the opening round of the 2026 FIA Formula One World Championship in Melbourne on 6-8 March. Fernando Alonso: “It's always a special moment driving a new car for the first time, especially at the start of a new regulation cycle. Over the years I've experienced many changes in Formula One, and you quickly get a sense of the direction the car is taking. We completed a solid programme with strong mileage, which is the main priority at this stage. It's still very early days and we have a lot of work still to do before we head to Melbourne in March.” Lance Stroll: “It was a huge effort across the team to get the car ready, so I really appreciate all the hard work that went into getting us on track. My running was limited, but it was good to get behind the wheel for the first time and start to get a feel for the car. I look forward to getting to Bahrain and driving the car again.” Mike Krack, Chief Trackside Officer, Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team: “Getting a new car on track for the first time is always an important step. Bringing the AMR26 to life here in Barcelona has taken a big effort, both back at the AMR Technology Campus and from the team working trackside. I want to thank everyone across the team for the work that's gone into getting us to this point. Having both drivers in the car and providing valuable feedback and data is an important part of our pre-season preparations. It's also been helpful as we continue building our working relationships with new works partners, including Honda. We'll now take what we've learned and keep developing the AMR26 ahead of Bahrain testing.” Presidential Announcement of Freedom 250 Grand Prix of Washington, D.C. INDIANAPOLIS (Friday, Jan. 30, 2026) – An executive order signed today by President Donald J. Trump directed the White House Task Force on Celebrating America's 250th Birthday to designate a race route through Washington, D.C. and the National Mall for the purposes of conducting an NTT INDYCAR SERIES race on August 21-23, 2026. The event will recognize the historic milestone of America's independence in addition to celebrating the unparalleled tradition and legacy of America's motorsports industry. “INDYCAR racing is a source of pride and entertainment for our Nation, which is why I am pleased to announce the Freedom 250 Grand Prix of Washington, D.C.” said President Trump via the executive order. “This race, the first motor race ever to be held in our Nation's capital near the National Mall, will showcase the majesty of our great city as drivers navigate a track around our iconic national monuments in celebration of America's 250th birthday.” The full executive order can be viewed here: Executive Orders – The White House. The event will be administered by INDYCAR in coordination with the taskforce, U.S. Department of Transportation, U.S. Department of the Interior, and Washington, D.C.'s Executive Office of the Mayor. “For over one hundred years, American INDYCAR racing has set the pace for motorsports,” President Trump continued. “With speeds topping over 200 miles per hour, the cars and drivers inspire awe and respect in all who watch this quintessentially American sport.” For more than a century, INDYCAR has hosted the iconic Indianapolis 500 Mile Race on the Sunday before Memorial Day, annually the world's largest single-day spectator sporting event. “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing” serves as a singular and powerful tribute to the United States Armed Forces, with a crowd of more than 350,000 people gathering to show respect and gratitude for the service and sacrifice of our military heroes. Legends of INDYCAR span multiple generations from racing greats like Mario Andretti and A.J. Foyt to the stars of today like four-time SERIES champion Alex Palou and two-time Indy 500 winner Josef Newgarden. “President Trump has bestowed an incredible distinction upon our sport, and we're grateful for his trust and support as INDYCAR prepares to honor our country with a tremendous racing spectacle,” said Roger Penske. “This will be a truly memorable event that celebrates our country's independence and the legacy of patriotism, innovation, and excellence that powers motorsports across America.” “Freedom doesn't ring, it revs! INDYCAR is about competition and pushing limits — the same things that have always defined America,” said United States Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy. “There's no better place to celebrate our 250th anniversary than bringing that energy to the nation's capital and showcasing Washington, D.C. to the world.” "The Department of the Interior is proud to help bring the historic Freedom 250 Grand Prix to Washington, D.C. to showcase our treasured public spaces through a monumental event that captures the America spirit in the heart of our nation's capital," said Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum. "Like the sport of racing itself, this administration, under President Donald J. Trump, is moving at record speed to make life better for all Americans and ensure that the United States marks its 250th birthday with the celebration that it deserves. Start your engines, America!" “Soon-to-be the home of every major sports franchise, Washington, D.C. is the undisputed Sports Capital,” said Mayor Muriel Bowser. “But we don't stop there and work to attract major events. That's why I am thrilled to welcome the Freedom 250 to the Nation's Capital this August. The race weekend will rev up the economic engine of D.C. by filling our hotels and restaurants and by showing visitors, residents and the sports world that there's no better city, people and backdrop for major sports events. I invite all sports fans to come enjoy the Freedom 250 and all that Washington, D.C. has to offer.”

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!… HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MICHAEL SCHUMACHER…57 EVERYBODY GOING TO WANT TO KNOW WHAT MAX THINKS OF THE NEW CARS!…FOR SURE. LOGAN SARGENT BACK IN THE DRIVERS SEAT FOR THE 24 HOURS OF DAYTONA… FLAVIO BRIATORE EXPLAINS TO THE UNIVERSE WHY FERNANDO'S 2005 CHAMPIONSHIP WAS MORE THAN SPECIAL….HE BEAT SCHUMACHER TWO YEARS IN A ROW…IT WAS BIG!! THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER…MORE VINTAGE BANTER BETWEEN THE HOST AND NASIR…THIS WEEK WE HAVE GIANCARLO FISICHELLA! BONUS INTERVIEW...MARIO ANDRETTI AT LAGUNA SECA. Flavio Briatore, the former boss of F1 legend Fernando Alonso, has explained the wider importance of the Spaniard's 2005 world championship win. Alonso is a two-time world champion, having claimed back-to-back titles in 2005 and 2006 with the Renault team, beating seven-time champion Michael Schumacher in both of those years. He has since gone on to compete for another 20 years - barring two seasons off for 'retirement' - and has now raced in more grands prix than any other driver in F1 history. Alonso is still going strong at the age of 44, and is hoping to once more challenge for podiums and race wins in the near future with Aston Martin. But now, his former boss has taken us all back to 2005, when Alonso became the youngest champion in F1 history at a time after a seven-win season. "He replaced a world champion and many criticised him for being young and inexperienced, but I believed in him," Briatore said in a new DAZN documentary titled Bravissimo. "I was sure he was special. Over time you realise that he wasn't just special, he was something more than that. "In 2005 we not only won a world championship, we also introduced Formula 1 to Spain. It was the moment when everyone truly got to know Fernando Alonso. Not just because he won the world championship, but because of how he won it; we did it with authority." Can Alonso win another race? Now 44 years old, Alonso's hopes of claiming a third world championship title may be fading away, but he could still claim a 33rd career grand prix victory. Alonso has not won a race since the 2013 Spanish Grand Prix, but does have a contract that runs until the end of next season, and may even go on beyond that. The Spaniard has said that, if Aston Martin provide him with a car that's fighting for race wins in 2026, he'll be happy to retire, but if they're still struggling for top 10 finishes, he may well carry on beyond that. Alonso's driving ability is still there compared to his rivals, out-qualifiying his much younger team-mate Lance Stroll ahead of a grand prix on all 24 occasions in 2025. Sharp rocks cut deep into the convoy during frantic first stage of the 2026 Dakar Rally. The 2026 Dakar Rally began to stretch it's legs on Stage 1 with over 300km of racing over the rock fields surrounding Yanbu. Perilous terrain was waiting to take a big bite out of the convoy as they were plunged into the deep end at the world's toughest rally. Let's see who managed to keep their heads above water… It was Guillaume de Mévius and Mathieu Baumel who put the hammer down hardest on Stage 1 of the Ultimate class battle. The duo dodged all obstacles in their path, bringing their MINI JCW Rally 3.0i back to the Yanbu Start Camp Bivouac in first place overall. It's an incredible achievement considering their participation at this Dakar was thrown into serious doubt when Baumel was forced to have his right leg amputated last year. 'Winning a stage always feels good, but it wasn't really our strategy for the day. Tomorrow, Mathieu and I will be opening and I'm very happy about that. With Mathieu on my right, I'm not worried about opening a special.” – Guillaume de Mévius Nasser Al-Attiyah got his Dacia within 40 seconds of De Mévius's front-running vehicle. The Qatari gave us an insight into his tactics for tomorrow's 400-kilometre special stage that will bring the convoy to Al-Ula. “We were pushing, but then we saw Seb with two flat tyres so tried to take it easy. Then Guillaume passed us and we stayed behind him all the way. Tomorrow I will start three minutes behind Guillaume and we can push.” – Nasser Al-Attiyah Also finding themselves in a strong position to attack on the mountainous tracks that await tomorrow are the four Ford Raptor T1+ crews. Mattias Ekström, Carlos Sainz, Nani Roma and Mitch Guthrie Jr. all find themselves in the Top 10 and will be out to turn the screw on Stage 2. “There's 25 really fast drivers and 14 days of racing so you have to take care of your own business while keeping an eye on everybody else.” – Mattias Ekström Rally organisers placed a pitstop midway through the stage for four-wheel competitors due to the sheer amount of sharp rocks on the route. Top drivers including Sébastien Loeb, Toby Price, Cristina Gutiérrez, Laia Sanz, Henk Lategan and Seth Quintero all got their tyres sliced on Stage 1 as the Dakar showed its teeth during the first long stage of 2026. “It's like driving on razor blades out there!” – Seth Quintero Leading the charge for the debutant Defender team in the Stock class on Stage 1 was Rokas Baciuška. The Lithuanian set the Stock category's fastest time to create a piece of Dakar history. Baciuška is now the only World Rally-Raid Championship driver to win stages in Ultimate, Challenger, SSV and now Stock divisions. “There's a lot of dust out there because the Stock category starts each day at the back. I'm used to driving in the dust from my days driving SSV so that might help me out this year. Tomorrow will be another tough day so we'll see how we deal with it.” – Rokas Baciuška First to leave the Start Camp Bivouac this morning were the bikers with the leading contenders hitting the stage at 8am. Prologue victor Edgar Canet of Red Bull KTM Factory Racing maintained his impressive pace to make it back-to-back stage wins. 20-year-old Canet is making his debut in the Dakar's RallyGP category for elite bikers and it's so far, so good for the Catalan. “I did a good job with the navigation, I just got lost for a little bit. You need to take care in the rocks not to destroy yourself or destroy your bike.” – Edgar Canet Also taking a spot on the Stage 1 podium was Canet's KTM team-mate Daniel Sanders. The 2025 Dakar champion kept his head despite being attacked by sandstorms while racing for over three hours. “It was really windy and my helmet was catching a lot of wind so it was hard to focus.” – Daniel Sanders Harith Noah and Mohammed Balooshi both endured tough days on the bike. Indian rider Noah was airlifted to hospital in Riyadh due to back injuries following a crash. We wish Harith a speedy recovery from his injuries. Meanwhile, Balooshi also suffered an accident during the stage, although he was able to bring his Honda CRF 450 to the finish line. “At the refuelling a doctor tried to fix my finger and knuckle. I rode this 300km stage unable to grip since kilometre 20. I just tried to survive. This is Dakar!” – Mohammed Balooshi There was plenty of rock and rolling in the Challenger class with Dania Akeel arriving to the finish of Stage 1 with the driver's side door ripped off her Taurus T3 Max. Despite some superficial damage to the machine, both Akeel and her BBR team-mate Kevin Benavides stayed within 10 minutes of early category leader David Zille. “I'm not sure what happened with the door because we didn't hit anything. Maybe there was something loose. We had one puncture so we lost some time changing the tyre. It was also very dusty with so many Ultimate cars around us. But that's part of the game. Thanks to my co-driver Sébastien for a great stage.” – Dania Akeel After today's 305-kilometre loop around Yanbu it's still very tight at the top of the SSV class. Francisco ‘Chaleco' López won the SSV race at the Dakar in both 2019 and 2021. After Stage 1 in 2026 the Chilean is just four minutes off leader Xavier De Soultrait, with Gonçalo Guerreiro a further 30 seconds behind. “We need to keep working hard to reach the finish of this rally. It was very tough on the rocks today so I'm happy with the time we posted.” – Francisco ‘Chaleco' López Showing grit and determination worthy of the Dakar was eight-time World Rallycross champion Johan Kristoffersson. The Swede did not get his Dakar debut started as he wanted when his Polaris RZR Pro R ended up on its roof during the Prologue. However, Kristoffersson dusted himself down and took his place on the start line of Stage 1. Despite eating a lot of dust, the rookie recorded the day's 13th best time in the SSV class. For tomorrow's Stage 2 the convoy depart Yanbu and the shores of the Red Sea, heading inland towards the treasures of Al-Ula. Competitors hoping to establish an early race rhythm will be frustrated by the constantly evolving terrain under their wheels. Every brief section of flat out speed is quickly followed by a technical section over the rocks. As with Stage 1, a midway pitstop has been added for four-wheel competitors to attend to any punctures suffered on the rocks. ULTIMATE – Top 3 plus selected 1. G. De Mévius (BEL) / M.

Spanish journalist Albert Fabrega joins Tom Clarkson in the Qatar paddock to discuss the news that Adrian Newey will become Aston Martin Team Principal from 2026. Why have Aston appointed the legendary designer to this new role? How well suited is Adrian to leading a team? And what do Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll make of the decision? Tom and Albert also discuss the championship permutations going into the penultimate round of the season. What does Lando Norris need to be crowned World Champion this weekend? With Max Verstappen closing in, will McLaren change their approach? And who could benefit from the mandatory tyre stints Pirelli have introduced for this race?
As the saying goes; what happens in Vegas, stays In Vegas. And that was true about Lando Norris's 24 point lead over 2nd place in the World Driver's Championship after a double dq for McLaren and an imperious win for (former, but on longer title outsider) Max Verstappen. Could Max actually do it this season, from an over 100 point deficit to taking the title in the last 2 race weekends? If he does manage to pip both papaya clad drivers to the title, this will probably go down in history as just about the greatest championship win ever. So get your popcorn ready, we're at the sharp end!This week on the podcast we look back at a Las Vegas Grand Prix that had more tha a few shocks. A wet track, an utterly abysmal Ferrari qualifying strategy, even by their own, already low, standards. Lance Stroll ending up as the victim of a move from Bortaletto that could only be described as "Strollesque" And a reault that's keeping the championship a three way scrap for far longer than anyone thought possible at the Summer break.You might notice that we recorded this on Wednesday this week and thanks to a huge stroke of luck when it comes to F1 news, the Adrian Newey appointment as team principle at Aston Martin from next year was still doing the rounds of shocking and confusing everyone. What is Lawrence Stroll playing at? Is he actually a genius or will this come crashing down like his last few TP appointments did? (We're going to be going through a LOT of popcorn in the future)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.

Ahead of a new era of Formula 1 in 2026, Italian engineer Enrico Cardile moved from Ferrari to Aston Martin. Working alongside Adrian Newey as Chief Technical Officer, his aim is to turn Aston into winners. Enrico tells Tom Clarkson how he studied Ferrari at university, before joining the company as a young engineer in the road car division. He moved on to the F1 team, developing single-seaters which took Kimi Raikkonen, Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc to Grand Prix wins. Enrico left Ferrari and joined Aston Martin in summer 2025. He describes the differences between an established team and one which is still building. He describes working with Adrian Newey at Aston's state-of-the-art factory, what Lance Stroll has in common with Raikkonen and how driver feedback from Stroll and Fernando Alonso is helping to drive the team forwards.
