“Send us a Hey Now!”

It's the start of the year so first of all, Happy New Year!

This week we are joined by the third leg of the Dirty Side stool, Pitlane Paul.

He talks to us about getting ready for the new season and how that is different this year given that Valtteri will be back on the grid as a driver for Cadillac.

“Send us a Hey Now!”

We are taking a couple of weeks off from recording full length episodes so have delved into our back catalog to bring you a couple of our favorites.

Up this week is Rob's choice where he chose that we relisten to the episode we did back in Season 1, episode 32.

What was special about that episode you ask?

Only the appearance of one Jacques Villeneuve on the pod!

Yes, the World Champion himself graced our pod wi...

Up this week is Brian's choice where he chose that we relisten to the Vale's Tale episode we did back in Season 2, episode 5 on the subject of Nigel Mansell.

So, if you didn't catch it the first time (or even if you did), take a listen as we recap his a...

“Send us a Hey Now!”

We went racing for the final time this season with the WDC on the line at the Abu Dhabi GP.

It might have been a more intriguing/anxious race rather than exciting but still kept us interested until the very end.

We'll review the race as well as the crowning of this years Champion.

“Send us a Hey Now!”

After the events of Vegas with the double McLaren disqualification, it was time for them to lick their wounds and see what Qatar would bring.

Well what it brought was a very poor racing weekend but with the promise of an epic end to the season.

Oh, and it also involved a discussion concerning cows & camels....well it did for Paul anyway.

“Send us a Hey Now!”

It's an off week before we head to Vegas so this week we decided to take a look at a season that has a few things in common with this season.

The 2007 season saw McLaren end up with two number one drivers who battled each other for the title whilst also trying to fend off a driver from another team!

Sound familiar?

We look at a number of other things that took place that year as there was a LOT of talking poin...

We went back racing after an off week last week and it was a return to Brazil for the race at Interlagos.

The race weekend was also a sprint weekend so we had extra competitive action at a track we love here on the Dirty Side.

“Send us a Hey Now!”

It's an off week before we head to Brazil so this week we decided to take a look at how we might build a team if the only drivers we could pick from are this seasons six rookies.

We debate who would be test driver, reserve driver, and which two would take our race seats.

We then take a look ahead to Brazil and update our casino game selections.

“Send us a Hey Now!”

We went back to back racing after COTA last week and it was a return to Mexico for the race in Mexico City.

The race has been a bit of a snoozer in recent years so we went in with expectations pretty low.

How wrong we were!!!

“Send us a Hey Now!”

We went back to racing after a week off and it was a return to the US for the race at COTA.

Was it a banger or a bore?

Well that seems to depend on if you are a fan of tire management but on the plus side it was a sprint weekend so we got more racing.

It's an off week before we head to COTA so this week we decided to take a look at how team orders have taken shape down the years given the huge focus being put on everything McLaren are doing right now.

We look at some of the big ones and also how we feel that McLaren might be trying to do something we've not really seen before.

“Send us a Hey Now!”

It's an off week before we head to Singapore so this week we decided to take a look at how Cadillac might get on based on the debut seasons of the last seven new WCC entrants.

We start back in 1991 with Jordan and come all the way up to 2016 with Haas.

What can these teams tell us about what life is like in your first season on the grid?

Best listen and find out!

We went back to racing after a week off and it was a return to the streets of Baku for the Azerbaijan GP.

Was it a banger or a bore?

Well that seems to depend on who you ask, but it had a whole host of talking points especially the qualifying session and a boat load of stats for Sap to get his teeth into.

We went back to back after the Dutch GP as F1 made it's way back to Italy in the form of Monza.

Was it a banger?

Maybe not, but it had a whole host of talking points that we pull apart in this episode, not least the subject of team orders from McLaren.

Maybe not, but it had a certain magic about it and we were very glad to have a race to review again.
