The F1 summer break is ALMOST OVER… and it’s almost time to get back racing! 

After an action packed first half of the 2026 Formula 1 season, the paddock has finally had some time to breathe but the championship certainly hasn’t slowed down.

In this episode, we’re looking back at everything that’s happened so far and asking the big question, who has the upper hand heading into the second half of the season?

Kimi Antonelli heads into the restart at the top of the Drivers’ Championship, with Lewis Hamilton and George Russell chasing him down. Mercedes have looked incredibly strong, but Ferrari and McLaren have been closing the gap, and Lando Norris’ victory in Hungary has added even more intrigue to what could be a fascinating title fight.

We’ll be talking about the biggest winners and losers of the first half of the season, the performances that surprised us, the teams that need to step things up, and which drivers could make a serious championship charge after the break.

And, of course, we’ll look ahead to the Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort, where F1 finally returns to action from August 21–23, including a Sprint weekend to kick-start the second half of the championship. 

So grab yourself a coffee, settle back in, and join us as we say goodbye to the summer break and welcome Formula 1 back with open arms!

The summer is over. The silly season is heating up. And the championship battle is about to get VERY interesting.

We arrived for round 9 of the 2026 F1 season for the British Grand Prix where we were also treated to a Sprint weekend! 

The Ferrari team were alive this weekend with Hamilton putting his car on pole for the sprint, however, it was the boy from Bologna, Kimi Antonelli that swooped in yet again to claim victory on Saturday afternoon. 

However, off of the back that could have seen the Ferrari team clinch victory on Saturday, it was both Ferrari boys that put it Kimi on Sunday, with an incredible and dominating first stint performance from both LeClerc & Hamilton that seen the pair holding P1 & P2 until things became a little chaotic.

A late race safety car threw a spanner into the works as Max Verstappen found the gravel trap at the Lando Norris stand, and heartbreak came Kimi’s way as his car started to fall apart all around him. 

Unfortunately, after the chaos settled and what many fans thought was going to be a last lap shootout, the FIA kept the safety car out to finish up the race with LeClerc clinching P1, Russell claiming P2 and Hamilton claiming P3

We arrived for round 8 of the 2026 F1 season for the Austrian Grand Prix, but before the grand prix even kicked off, it was Saturday’s qualifying session that had everyone debating whether George Rusell should’ve kept his pole position for the main event on Sunday.

With an unexpected crash from Verstappen during Q3, and both Ferrari’s on course for a one two grid start, the celebrations in the Italian garage were quickly followed by confusion as George Russell snagged pole after the yellow flags were deployed... did he lift, should his lap time have been deleted?

But it was the FIA to the rescue as the British driver kept his spot for the main event on Sunday, and from lights out to the finish, George Russeell claimed his second GP victory of the season.

We arrived for round 7 of the 2026 F1 season for the Spanish Grand Prix, with after months of anticipation, heartbreak, near-misses and endless debate, the seven-time world champion, LEWIS HAMILTON has claimed his first Formula 1 victory for Ferrari 

But for the rest of the grid, IT WAS heartache, near-misses and endless debate, with championship leader Kimi Antonelli retiring due to power unit issues, Ferrari’s Charles LeClerc retiring due to power steering issues and about 5 or 6 other DNF’s, it was one that definitely had a lot of fans on the edge of their seats.

But was this the moment Ferrari's championship challenge truly came alive? Can Hamilton build on this momentum and hunt down Antonelli in the standings? And is this the start of a new chapter in one of Formula 1's most iconic partnerships?

We arrived for round 6 of the 2026 F1 season for the Monaco Grand Prix, with Kimi Antonelli delivering yet another masterclass performance while dominating the streets of Monaco, securing a lights to flag victory. 

But for everyone else on the grid, it was either heartache or penalties that came their way. 

With Red Bull’s Max Verstappen retiring on Lap 1, half of the grid receiving 5 second penalties for speeding in the pitlane, to LeClerc & Stroll ending up in the barrier, it was a Monaco GP that many won’t forget, but for the majority of the drivers, one they can’t wait to forget!

We finally arrived for round 5 of the 2026 F1 season for the Canadian Grand Prix, however, it felt more like a UFC match than a race. 

Between both the sprint race and the grand prix, the merc boys threw the gloves off and went toe to toe in probably one of the best scraps we’ve seen in the season thus far, however, some of us were having flashbacks to last season with Lando binning it into the wall as he scrapped with Piastri, but unfortunately, Georges battery went flat and put that theory to bed. 

With some questionable tyre choices from some of the teams, on track battles and scraps, the Canadian Grand Prix weekend was one you didn’t want to miss out on

With F1 back on our screens, we finally arrived for round 4 of the 2026 F1 season for the Miami Grand Prix, after what felt like an 84 year break!

From an incredible action packed sprint race that seen McLaren utilising their upgrades and taking P1 & P2, to an unbelievably chaotic grand prix start that seen multiple crashes and Max Verstappen pulling some Tokyo Drift moves at Turn 2, Miami was a weekend that gave everyone exactly what they were looking for….. ACTION!!!

With the four week break giving all of the teams the time to go back to the drawing board and bring some upgrades, the entire pack is now closing up to the top team Mercedes faster than anticipated! Could Mercedes be in trouble?... well.. not if Kimi Antonelli has anything to say about it, as yet again, the boy from Bologna snatched P1 in the grand prix.
