Episode Show Notes: July 24th, 2025

What's up, F1 fam! We're dropping in hot with all the tea on the 2024 Belgian Grand Prix and spilling the deets on what's coming for 2025. Get ready for some high-octane insights, spicy driver takes, and all the grid gossip you can handle.

Remember when we thought F1 cars couldn't get any wilder? Think again! We're diving deep into the 2026 F1 regulations that are already making drivers like Max Verstappen, Charles Leclerc, and Lance Stroll sweat. 😬

The Gist: Less downforce, slower corners, and energy management that's basically a brain teaser. Charles Leclerc even called it "less attractive and a little bit less nice to drive overall." Yikes!

FIA's Vibe Check: The FIA's Nikolas Tombazis is like, "Chill, fam, they're just different. Drivers will adapt, and lap times will be back to normal by 2027." We'll see about that!

Pirelli's Predicament: Imagine trying to make the perfect tire for a car that doesn't even exist yet. That's Pirelli's life right now. They're stuck with "mule cars" that don't quite hit the mark for 2026 testing. 😩

The drama is real, even off the track! F1 is beefing up rules to stop teams from filing those "just because" protests that mess with race results.

$$$ Talks: George Russell is calling for higher deposit fees than the current €2000 because, let's be real, that's chump change for multi-million-euro teams. McLaren CEO Zak Brown is also on board, wanting to formalize all those low-key allegations. 🤫

F1 is not just about speed; it's about being sustainable and keeping things fair!

Green Flag for the Planet: F1 has slashed carbon emissions by 26% since 2018, even with more races and fans! They're hitting that Net Zero by 2030 goal hard, switching to renewable energy, cutting travel, and using biofuel trucks. Plus, sustainable fuel in cars by 2026! 🌎

No More Fave Teams: The FIA is dropping the hammer on "A-Team B-Team" relationships for 2026 to keep the competition spicy and fair. Think strict IT and physical segregation between teams – no more sneaky info sharing! 🕵️‍♀️

Get ready for Round 13 at the legendary Spa-Francorchamps, where the vibes are always immaculate and the weather is a total wild card! This iconic track, the longest on the F1 calendar with its epic 19 turns (and that mind-blowing Eau Rouge/Raidillon), is set to deliver pure drama. Lewis Hamilton is defending champ, but with a Sprint format weekend and forecasts hinting at rain, anything can happen. Michael Schumacher's 6 wins here are legendary, but who will dominate this year's unpredictable mayhem? You definitely don't wanna miss this!
