Episode 19 - We’re less than a day out from the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix in Imola, Italy so here’s your pre-race intro. It was cancelled last year due to the flooding in Italy so fans are excited to have the race back again. I’ll review the tragic history of the track and the changes made to the circuit to increase driver safety. As always, I’ll sprinkle in fun facts and veer off on some tangents like who has been downplaying their upgrade package this weekend and which driver lives closest to this track. Godere, race fans!

Episode 17 - The Miami Grand Prix is just around the corner so here’s your pre-race intro. It’s the circuit's first time hosting a sprint and while still fairly new to Formula One , it’s definitely making a splash in the sport. I’ll share some info about the circuit as well revisit past pre-race events and podiums.
