Episode Show Notes: May 22, 2025
Welcome to the Scuderia F1 Podcast! This week, we're strapping in for a packed grid of topics. We tackle Cadillac's "heavy" start to their F1 journey and Ferrari's relentless quest for qualifying pace, fueled by Tifosi "hopium." Then, we shift gears to F1's big commercial plays, including a surprising new alliance with Disney, before confronting the "digital daggers" of online abuse and media ethics in the sport. And, of course, with the iconic race just around the corner, we give you our essential Monaco Grand Prix Preview!
Here’s what we’re unpacking in this episode:
On-Track & Technical - The Weight of Expectation
Cadillac's 2026 Charge: They've passed the crash tests, but their chassis is reportedly "well over the weight target set by engineers"! We discuss the monumental task of building a car AND a team for the new regs.
Ferrari's Mid-Season Suspension Saga: Still losing "half a second per lap in qualifying"? The Tifosi are on their usual "hopium" to "despair" rollercoaster as a new rear suspension is prepped for Silverstone. Will it finally cure their Saturday struggles? Fred Vasseur admits, "When you start at P11 and P12, it's much more difficult."
FIA Technical Directives: How new TDs on skid blocks and tyre cooling are stirring the pot between Red Bull and McLaren, and Andrea Stella's "good news" take on rivals "focusing on the wrong things."
