Sam and Wes are back to discuss the return of the US Grand Prix at COTA in Austin, Texas as the F1 season is nearing its conclusion with just six races to go, and only six points separating Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen in the drivers' championship.

The pair preview the upcoming weekend and give their predictions as to how the season will pan out, who will win the race, and who needs this win more - Hamilton or Verstappen.

With the 2022 F1 calendar released, Sam and Wes also give their thoughts on the tracks for next year's campaign.

Sam and Wes chat about the 2021 Turkish Grand Prix, where Valtteri Bottas won his first race since Sochi 2020, and Max Verstappen reclaims top spot in the drivers' championship. Further down the grid, it was a good weekend for Ferrari as only half a point separates Leclerc and Sainz in the standings, and some interesting tyre strategies played out with a no-stopper and a certain German slipping and sliding around on dry tyres on a wet track.

Sam and Wes are back to talk about the upcoming Turkish Grand Prix at Istanbul, where they discuss last year's chaotic race, and offer their predictions for this week's event. They also react to the news of Qatar hosting a Grand Prix on a ten-year deal from 2022, and that Formula 1 is trying to come up with a more sustainable 'drop-in' fuel from 2025. Also, Wes mistakes the word 'persecute' for 'prosecute', and neither of the boys' internet was working perfectly so there will be some laggy sections in this episode - apologies!

Sam and Wes discuss the Russian Grand Prix and the heartbreak for Lando Norris as his maiden F1 victory figuratively slipped through his fingers as rain caused chaos in the final laps at Sochi. The pair chat about what might have been for Norris, but it was success for another British driver on the grid, as Sir Lewis Hamilton broke yet another record - one hundred race wins.

Sam and Wes sit and discuss McLaren's impressive season so far in F1, after reaching an extraordinary achievement with overall points. Valtteri Bottas comes back to a trach where he's had big success; the intense championship battle between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen continues with 25 points up for grabs!

After a busy week away from the pod, Sam and Wes sit down to discuss the two latest Grands Prix in the Netherlands and Italy, as well as the F1 'silly season' and driver market, sharing their thoughts on the races and driver transfers.

Sam and Wes discuss the bizarre Belgian Grand Prix, which was delayed due to heavy rainfall, and its notorious Eau Rouge left corner which is followed by the right hand of Raidillon. George Russell was the hot topic as his P2 in the Williams from qualifying received positive waves around F1. The lads also talk about whether it was right to have a "race" with just two laps behind the safety car in heavy rain on the track in Spa. The upcoming Dutch Grand Prix in Zandvoort sees Red Bull's Max Verstappen return home!

After a long summer break without racing, the carbon engines burn hot and ready again as F1 season returns at Spa Francochamps in Belgium. Sam and Wes discuss the first half of the season so far and the exciting world championship battle between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen. Just who will get that all important jump at the start line in Belgium, and what will be crowned world champion at the end of the season?

The 2021 Formula E season closed in dramatic fashion as Jaguar's Mitch Evans' car failed to get off the start line in the Berlin E-Prix. Sam and Wes discuss the conclusion of another unpredictable season of electric racing as well as favourite moments.
