The wait is over, Formula 1 is back, and so is the Cooldown Rundown. Sam and Ryan kick off the 2026 season by breaking down everything to watch for in the year ahead: new regulations, new teams, and a few new segments for the show.

With lights out in Melbourne right around the corner, the guys share their early season predictions and what they think (and hope) will happen at the Australian Grand Prix.

Grab a cold one and settle in for this episode of the Cooldown Rundown.
