Verstappen’s Exit Strategy & F1 on the Big Screen

This week on After the Apex, David and Eric unpack one of the most chaotic stretches in the F1 world—on the track, in the paddock, and on the big screen.

We kick things off with Red Bull’s mounting internal tension: Tsunoda’s shaky future, and a team dynamic that’s starting to crack under the weight of dominance.

Then it's time to talk rumors with grip—is Max Verstappen really eyeing a move to Mercedes? We break down the quotes, body language, and why Toto might be leaving a seat very warm.

Next up: Cadillac’s driver announcement. We dive into what this means for the American motorsport scene, whether the team can shake up the grid, and who’s behind the wheel of this Stateside gamble.

Finally, lights out and... Hollywood. We review the new F1 movie starring Brad Pitt—how real it felt, what it got wrong, and whether it's made for diehards or Netflix-era newbies. Spoiler: it’s not your average sports flick.

Buckle up. It’s time for another lap with After the Apex.
