    Baku Race Review: Russell Charge, Red Bull Tension & Late-Race Chaos

    Spanners is joined by Kristian and Alex to review a strange Azerbaijan Grand Prix. George Russell looked in complete control at the front, while Verstappen and Hadjar produced an increasingly awkward Red Bull team dynamic. We dig into McLaren’s lack of pace, Piastri throwing away a potential podium, Ferrari’s straight-line struggles, Lindblad and Lawson’s clash, the chaotic safety-car restart and a final-lap dash that suddenly brought the race back to life. Plus your listener reckons.

    Italian GP Qualifying: Ferrari Heart Attacks, Piastri Conspiracy & Red Bull Tow Games
    Monza qualifying delivers a huge surprise as the grid is shaken up in unexpected fashion. Spanners examines Ferrari’s latest attempt to induce cardiac arrest, the theory that Oscar Piastri may have deliberately denied Lando Norris a crucial tow, and Red Bull’s increasingly suspicious use of sister-team drivers to help Max Verstappen. Plus, McLaren’s braking problems, the Mercedes-powered cars looking rapid on a power track, and all the key stories from qualifying.

    Monza Preview: Ferrari’s Big Chance, Antonelli’s Penalty & Qualifying Chaos
    Spanners previews the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, where championship leader Kimi Antonelli starts from the back and Ferrari suddenly have a huge opportunity on home soil. We look at Hamilton and Leclerc’s title chances, why the 2026 cars could make Monza qualifying especially chaotic, the strange new overtaking dynamics created by energy deployment, and whether this traditionally low-downforce race is heading for another one-stop strategy battle. Plus Norris’ new McLaren deal, Williams managing expectations, the latest development war and a few distinctly Italian surprises.

    Strategy Roundtable Aug 2026

    How much does strategy really matter in Formula 1? Spanners and the panel dig into where races are actually won and lost: raw car pace, driver performance, pit-wall decisions, tyre behaviour and plain old circumstance.


    We look at the strategy calls we love, the ones that make no sense, and where an undercut, overcut, tyre offset or Safety Car call can genuinely change a result. We also get into the Pirelli era and whether deliberately strategic tyres have made F1 more interesting or simply forced drivers to spend too much time managing rather than racing flat-out.


    And at the heart of it: should Formula 1 create more room for strategic divergence, or should the best car and driver simply sprint to the flag?
