Alanis, Elizabeth, and Nolan are here to make sure that DRS does not participate in the widespread NYCK DE VRIES ERASURE happening in the Formula One world. The crew talks through the history of Toro Rosso (later AlphaTauri), Nyck’s solid record as a driver, and introduces Nolan’s Formula – Formula Nyck. Yes, this whole episode was inspired by Nolan’s need to DO MATH to prove Nyck’s rookie season hasn’t been that bad.
