Could the tectonic plates of Formula 1 be shifting beneath our feet? Fasten your seatbelts, racing fans, as we grapple with the news that's left jaws on the floor: Lewis Hamilton is donning the scarlet red of Ferrari, leaving behind the silver arrows of Mercedes. We delve into the whispers of discontent that might have pushed Hamilton towards the allure of Maranello and dissect the potential clash or cohesion with fellow speedster Charles Leclerc.
How will Hamilton adapt to the Scuderia's nuances? We unravel the enigma, balancing the weight of Hamilton's championship pedigree with the intricacies of Ferrari's design philosophy. Beyond the track, we consider how the champion's staunch advocacy for diversity dovetails with the Prancing Horse's storied legacy. The emotional gravitas of this move isn't lost on us as we reflect on its impact, not just on the man in the cockpit, but on the fans who've ridden every lap with him.
As the checkered flag waves on this episode, the speculation shifts to the future landscape of F1's starting grid. Who will claim the coveted Mercedes seat in a post-Hamilton world? We debate the merits of the contenders, from Albon's potential leap to the raw promise of rising stars. Weaving through the narrative of driver transfers, the implications for Sainz, Bottas, and the enigmatic driver market come under our inspection.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
