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.

Righter than Wright Trivia! Can Jeffrey Continue His Winning Ways?; Prepping for the Biggest Sports Watching Week of the Year!; Tell Your Story, Max Verstappen.
In this week's episode, Zoe and Hannah recap the 2026 Chinese GP. They discuss Kimi Antonelli's very FIRST win in F1, Lewis Hamilton's first podium with Ferrari, McLaren's terrible race, Max Verstappen's struggles, F1 Academy, and much more.
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.

Max Verstappen heeft zijn simulator ingeruild voor een Nintendo Switch. Inderdaad, ook in China steekt hij zijn onvrede over de Formule 1-reglementen niet onder stoelen of banken. Hij is nog altijd niet onder de indruk van de nieuwe regels. Met name het belang van de batterij, en vooral het opladen hiervan, stootte hem tegen de borst.

James Vowles en Andrea Stella zijn niet te spreken over het gebrek aan informatie vanuit Mercedes over de 2026-krachtbron, en Max Verstappen benadrukt dat hij de intentie heeft om bij Red Bull te blijven.
The crew gets into the weeds of the F1 regulation changes, debating the new "power boost" strategy over the old DRS system. While drivers like Max Verstappen deal with technical "gremlins" like locking brakes, the fans are enjoying a record-setting 146 overtakes in Melbourne. The guys also offer a "public service announcement" for fans trying to find the Sky Sports broadcast on Apple TV to avoid the "dull" new announcing crew. To wrap up, the podcast recognizes the investigative work of Pablo Torre, awarding him a hypothetical "Profile in Courage" for his deep dive into the business dealings of Clippers owner Steve Ballmer. The episode concludes with some "buzzer beaters," including Jason Tatum's remarkable return from an Achilles injury and the Raiders' aggressive moves to bolster their defense in free agency.
The 2026 era of Formula 1 is officially here — and it arrived with heartbreak, controversy, and Ferrari doing Ferrari things.The Australian Grand Prix delivered unbelievable wheel-to-wheel racing in its opening weekend under the new regulations, but the strategy calls from the pit wall in Maranello proved once again that the boys in red have a gift for turning good days into painful ones. We'll break down the full race from start to finish, including the home race curse that continues to haunt Australian drivers and the tension between George Russell and Charles Leclerc that's already bubbling over before we've even left Melbourne.Then there's the elephant on the grid: Max Verstappen has been vocal about his frustrations with the new regulations, and he's no longer singing solo. A growing chorus of drivers are joining him in questioning whether this rule set is actually delivering what it promised. Is the criticism fair this early, or are they just adjusting to a car they haven't figured out yet? We'll talk about it.First race in the books, plenty already on fire. Welcome to 2026.

Het nieuwe tijdperk in de Formule 1 is nu officieel van start gegaan. George Russell won de Grand Prix van Australië. Genoeg om over na te praten in een nieuwe aflevering van de Formule 1-podcast van De Telegraaf. Verslaggever Erik van Haren vertelt over het gemoed in Melbourne, terwijl oud-coureur Christijan Albers eveneens een duidelijke mening heeft over de nieuwe en veelbesproken reglementen in de koningsklasse van de autosport.

Formula 1 is back, the regulations are new, and we have absolutely no idea what's going to happen — which is exactly how we like it.This week we're kicking off the 2026 season with everything that's been swirling around the paddock heading into Melbourne. Charles Leclerc got married, and we have thoughts. Drive to Survive dropped its eighth season, and the internet is split on whether the show still matters or whether it's run its course — we're breaking that debate down with our most reliable chat regulars. Then we get into the racing: Aston Martin swears they've turned a corner, Mercedes has been suspiciously quiet in a way that either means they're cooking or they've burned the kitchen down, and Max Verstappen's already told us the Red Bull will show up with the same colors and not much else.What can we actually expect when these brand new cars hit Albert Park for real? We'll speculate, we'll overreact, and we'll probably lose focus at least twice. Welcome to 2026.

F1 returns for 2026! Could it be Mercedes vs Ferrari once again?Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsFormula 1 returns to Melbourne amidst a very tense atmosphere, globally speaking. However, the grid is very much keen to find out what the new cars can do and what the actual pecking order is. Can Aston Martin actually survive an entire race distance or will they make a token appearance for the sake of avoiding a fine? Have McLaren fallen back to the bottom of the big four and where do Alpine, Haas and stack up in the midfield battle? All to come in the next few days! Is this Charles Leclerc's year against George Russell, Kimi Antonelli and Max Verstappen? Might Lewis secure his first win for the Tifosi?#f1 #ausgp #formula1 #f1news #f1latest #formulaone #australiangrandprix #f1predictions #predictions #maxverstappen #redbullracing #lewishamilton #charlesleclerc #redbull #f12025 #formula12026 #australiangp #f1teams #f1drivers #f1latest #f1drama My 2026 F1 Australian Grand Prix Preview & PREDICTIONSMy Predictions for the 2026 F1 Australian Grand Prixhttps://youtu.be/gIr3yvLd8ikJoin the VS Posse today!https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKXm93J-6YEUEBs8WlLagrA/join

The 2026 Formula 1 season is about new regulations and pressure and redemption and legacy and survival. From Lando Norris defending his crown to Max Verstappen's future, Ferrari's search for happiness, Mercedes' redemption, Audi's rise and Cadillac's entry, we break down the character arcs that could define the entire F1 2026 season. Could this be the last season for Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton, both? And what about Frederic Vasseur's time as Ferrari's Team Principal? How will Red Bull Racing fare without Helmut Marko and Christian Horner in their garage? Will Horner FINALLY get his nod to join Alpine as a shareholder and Team Principal? How different will Lando Norris be now that he's finally a World Champion? As for Oscar Piastri, can he finally mount a season-long challenge? Are Esteban Ocon and Nico Hullkenberg next on the list of F1's retirements, and what about Pierre Gasly? What does Isack Hadjar need to do to survive in that second seat at Red Bull Racing, and finally, will Toto Wolff continue to woo Max Verstappen? New F1 cars, new F1 rules and new F1 stories will see the characters of Formula 1 evolve in 2026. Which story line is your best?

Formula 1 driver Liam Lawson joins us for Chapter 385 of Gypsy Tales. As he prepares to compete in the 2026 Formula 1 season with Visa Cash App Racing Bulls, Liam shares the journey that led him to one of the most competitive seats in motorsport. From growing up in New Zealand to earning his opportunity behind the wheel of a Red Bull Formula 1 car, we dive into the defining moments that shaped his career and the mindset required to perform at the highest level of the sport. Liam also opens up about what it was really like inside the Red Bull environment alongside Max Verstappen, what he learned from observing a multiple time World Champion up close, and his time working alongside Daniel Ricciardo, including the dynamics, expectations, and pressure that come with racing inside one of Formula 1's most scrutinized teams. We talk about handling pressure, seizing opportunity when it comes, and what it truly feels like to race in Formula 1, where every decision happens at 300 km per hour and the margin for error is razor thin. This is a conversation about belief, preparation, and rising to the moment on motorsport's biggest stage.
The first part of testing is over and the vibes are iffy. F1's new regulations have given drivers and racers a bit of annoyance to say the least. Max Verstappen has some choice words.

The final phase of the 2025 Formula 1 World Championship is hotting up for our rookie drivers Kimi Antonelli and Ollie Bearman with just five races to go. At the start of this episode, we're flying high with Mercedes driver Antonelli as he boards his flight to Mexico. But when you're a jetset driver, how do you pass the time during long-haul trips across the world?The high-altitude circuit in Mexico City also sees fellow rookie, Britain's Ollie Bearman, climb to a career high finish with Haas, after a wheel-to-wheel battle with title challengers Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri. Before joining the F1 grid, Antonelli and Bearman knew each other well, and used to race together as teammates in the junior Formula 2 series. In an exclusive for this podcast, we arranged a fun reunion for them to compare their rookie seasons.As Bearman and Antonelli and the rest of the F1 pack head to Brazil, our guides Sarah Holt and Holly Samos are joining the Cadillac Formula 1 team back at base at Silverstone. Here the team are gearing up for their debut F1 season by competing against their rivals in a race simulation. This is a moment rarely seen in F1 history - but our podcast has been invited inside. Cadillac won't hit the grid until March 2026 - but it's crucial they iron out any gremlins now.In the real race in Sao Paulo, there's another major milestone for rookie Antonelli, who finishes with the best result of his F1 career. His Mercedes teammate, 2025 race-winner George Russell, gives his verdict on the rookie drivers and looks ahead to why he and Antonelli must work together if they are to win future World titles.F1: Back at Base is an IMG Production for the BBC, hosted by Rosamund Pike Co-hosts & Executive Producers are Sarah Holt and Holly Samos.
