We’re chatting about everything that went down in a very toasty Jeddah, including lap 1 drama, off-track tea (feat. unhinged rookie stories), Oscar Piastri leading the world championship (omg!), and really digging into why Max Verstappen was so angry after the race.

Let’s recap the Chinese Grand Prix over boozy boba and stir-fried race cakes! The on-track drama may have been a bit sub-par, but we can always rely on the teams to make unique strategy calls and on the FIA to take very precise measurements post-race. Plus the rookies are keeping us all on our toes! So, let’s dive in to the 2025 Chinese GP.
MENTIONED MEDIA
We’re headed to a land down under for the Australian Grand Prix! Our first race back was chaotic from start to finish. Ferrrari still can’t communicate via radio (water is wet, Charles!!), rookies were faced with their first wet race in F1, and the only strategist across the whole grid who seems to know what to do in wet weather conditions is Carlos Sainz. Let’s debrief the Australian GP!

After a WEEK's worth of technical difficulties we are back and recapping the final triple header of the season (Las Vegas GP, Qatar GP, and Abu Dhabi GP).

But that doesn’t even begin to compare to the OFF-track drama which included everything from surprise babies to feuds to soul-crushing farewells Let’s un-box the th...
Literally, what a chaotic Brazilian Grand Prix. I’m STILL recovering. In addition to Interlagos turning into a lake and all the on-track insanity that caused, we also some friendships mend (shoutout Pierre and Estie Bestie) and we got to hear the Dutch national anthem for the first time in agessss. So let’s make some Pão de queijo and talk all things Brazil GP!
P.S. This was recorded on Monday afternoon so some of the ...

Monza left me with a FLURRY of emotions I am still processing. From Charles Leclerc’s epic win. To the Tifosi’s epic celebrations. To McLaren’s very questionable race and championship strategy. To the grid updates for next year (and this year!). To Kevin simultaneously scoring a point and being banned from the next race. It’s almost too much too handle. Almost. Let’s feel our way through the Italian Grand Prix!
We're back from summer break with a banger of a Dutch Grand Prix!! Not really, but we’ve still got some action to unpack from the weekend, plus a whole summer of content, from team updates to holiday shenanigans to gossip our way through. Let’s unpack the Dutch Grand Prix!
