How has McLaren overtaken Red Bull this season? What does Ferrari need to do to challenge McLaren? Why are Red Bull struggling to find pace?

Former Ferrari, Williams, Jordan Grand Prix engineer, Rob Smedley, returns to FFS to catch up with DC and EJ. Rob believes that Lewis Hamilton's resurgence this season will carry into 2025, positioning Ferrari to challenge McLaren and Red Bull for the championship title. Meanwhile, EJ believes that the grid should not underestimate Flavio Briatore’s Alpine and James Vowles’ Williams next year.

Plus, Rob shares his activities outside of F1, including the launch of the Global Karting League (GKL), aimed at creating an affordable pathway for children aspiring to enter the world of motorsport.
