From Vettel's horrendous pitstop to Fernando's GODLY skill the past 2 weeks, there are memes on everything you'll be able to find!

Listen in!

This might be the beginning of the end of such an awesome season :(

On Monday, the world discovered that Red Bull overspent in the F1 season of 2021 (the Micheal Masi controversy of Abu Dhabi GP remember?)

The Fruit Of Patience: Sour or Sweet?

Sweet: The beautiful last-lap battle of Vettel and Alonso, Latifi gets his first season points, Vettel finishes P6 after spinning out etc.

Sour: Almost a repeat telecast of Suzuka 2014 and almost losing Gasly just like Jules... (more discussed in the podcast)

Time and again, the "unfortunate" and "untimely" results of steward investigation have caused drama. Why is this problem only faced by F1 and the FIA, not Football and FIFA, or Cricket and the ICC?

Let's explore this race and topic in today's episode.

This is a controversial topic and a question I left you with at the end of the previous episode...

Should Laps behind a safety car be counted or are they a waste of racing time? I present facts and arguments on both sides, towards the second half of the episode we also discuss why this is important.

This episode will be... **controversial** to say the least. It will be awesome to hear as well.

Excuse me for speaking slowly as this episode was recorded in the middle of the night.

As Zaandvoort comes back on the calendar for the second year... only an idiot would've expected Max NOT to win on his home race.

It could have been possible IF Hamilton and Russel had not pitted during the Virtual Safety Car (and then Safety Car) caused by Bottas losing power right before T1 for lap 69 (excellent)...

The fire we saw from Ferrari at the start of the season is losing intensity, the Red Bulls get stronger.

Even after Sainz's podium... Leclerc's strategist pulls him into the pits in lap 43/44 to get an extra 1 point for the fastest lap... Leclerc under pressure was caught speeding in the pit lane, getting a 5-second penalty making him finish 6th instead of 5th.

Greed never does anything good.

We also talk about Danny Ric's statement about McLaren's performance and expected improvements (if any).

How does one fix this team? Find out by listening to this episode!
