Also in this week's edition; a debate over whether Lando Norris or Charles Leclerc had the better season, the chances of Rwanda joining the F1 calendar in the future, and whether 2024 was Lewis Hamilton's worst season in the sport.

Ben Hunt and Jonathan Noble closes out the 2024 season as they review the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Together, they review Lando Norris' dominant victory and with it, McLaren's first Constructors Championship since 1998, the pitfalls they had to face such as Oscar Piastri being spun out on the opening lap, whether they've been the best team across the season, and Charles Leclerc's 16-place comeback to get on the podium.

Alex Kalinauckas and Jonathan Noble review Saturday's Qualifying at the Abu Dhabi GP.

McLaren enters Sunday's race as a huge favourite to win the Constructors Championship after locking out the front row, led by Lando Norris' eighth pole position of the season. Jon and Alex break down the potential threats standing in the way between the team and glory, such as Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz starting behind them from Row 2.

There's also more heartbreak for Charles Leclerc after a track limits breach knocked him out in Q2, forcing the Monegasque driver to start from the back of the grid post-penalty, a shock elimination for Lewis Hamilton in Q1 after a freak bollard, and Nico Hulkenberg's exceptional performance to qualify in fourth before receiving a three-place grid penalty for overtaking in the pitlane.

There's also a discussion on why it's advantage McLaren in the Constructors Championship fight as Alex reviews the long-run averages, Charles Leclerc's 10-place grid penalty after a battery issue was found in his Ferrari, and the latest on Sergio Perez's future as F2 title contender Isack Hadjar shared the Red Bull garage during FP1.

Alex Kalinauckas and Ben Hunt head to the Marina to discuss a heated Media Day at the 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

George Russell and Max Verstappen engaged in a heated war of words in their respective media sessions and press conferences, with Russell calling Verstappen a "bully" and the Dutchman retorting with "Backstabber", with even Toto Wolff intervening to criticise both Verstappen and team boss Christian Horner a "yapping terrier".

Alex and Ben try to make sense of it all while also previewing Lewis Hamilton's farewell to Mercedes and their takes on the McLaren vs Ferrari Constructors battle.

Kevin Turner hosts the latest episode of the Autosport Podcast as he sits down with Stefan Mackley and broadcaster Karun Chandhok to preview the 11th season of Formula E, which kicks off in Sao Paolo this weekend.

After Pascal Wehrlein won the Championship in a heated decider in London in the summer, he's back to try to retain the title, and if pre-season testing was anything to go by, Porsche looks like entering Season 11 as favourites. They've also expanded to six cars on their powertrains as the rebranded Kiro will also be running previous-spec powertrains. Their main opposition will likely be Jaguar, who still carry arguably the strongest driver line-up in the series with Mitch Evans and Nick Cassidy. But can the pair of New Zealanders co-exist?

There's also a discussion about Lola returning to Motorsport in collaboration with Yamaha and F2 race winner Zane Maloney making his series debut, why it could finally be Dan Ticktum's year, and how the new "Pit Boost" feature will affect the series famous "Peloton" racing style.

Stuart Codling and Jonathan Noble sit down to review a controversial Qatar Grand Prix. 

There’s analysis on the brilliance of Max Verstappen, who took his ninth victory of the season, leading from lights to flag after passing inherited pole sitter George Russell off the start line. 

But the race was clouded by more stewarding controversy as Alex Albon’s fallen wing mirror led to Valtteri Bottas crashing into it, Lewis Hamilton and Carlos Sainz receiving debris punctures, and a race-changing 10-second stop-and-go penalty for Lando Norris for ignoring double-waved yellows. Jon and Stuart review what any in the paddock described as “Draconian” penalties.

There are also words on an exclusive interview Jon had with FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem on Sunday morning and the reports Alpine are about to drop Esteban Ocon early for reserve driver Jack Doohan.

Jonathan Noble and Stuart Codling sit down to review all the action from Saturday's Sprint Race and Grand Prix Qualifying from Qatar.

There's an immediate reaction to the news that Max Verstappen's pole position was removed; with the Dutchman demoted to second via a controversial penalty for driving unnecessarily slowly with George Russell in Q3, with the British driver now inheriting pole as a result.

There's also an analysis of Lewis Hamilton's continued criticism of his poor qualifying form, Lando Norris giving up a Sprint victory to teammate Oscar Piastri on the run to the line, and Sergio Perez's losing a position in the pitlane to Franco Colapinto after the Mexican driver missed the green light at the start of the Sprint.

Lando Norris narrowly beat George Russell to pole in Sprint Qualifying, and Alex breaks down the different approaches taken to the session as the drivers had to juggle cooler conditions than expected and keep their rear tires in the right operating window.

There’s also discussion on the fight for sixth in the Constructors between Alpine, Haas and RB the potential final point in tomorrow’s sprint, and Qatar themselves buying a minority state in the Audi team.
