Go behind the scenes of a drought-breaking day of Supercars action at Hidden Valley with our Friday daily podcast.

It was a weird old day in Darwin with the blistering heat replaced with mild, overcast conditions and even a bit of rain.

The sky wasn't the only drought-breaker, with Cam Waters snapping his winless streak with an impressive victory.

How did the race play out? And who were the winners and losers throughout the field?

Our Friday daily podcast has it all covered.

Full Credit to the News tackles the big stories of the week, including clarity on Matt Payne's future and Darwin night racing.

Payne got on the front foot today, confirming that he plans on honouring his contract with Grove Racing for 2027.

It's a sensible move, but what does it mean for his future beyond next season?

Meanwhile, Darwin is moving to night racing from next year onwards, bringing a plan that stalled a decade ago back to life.

But is it really a good idea? And could the local hospitality industry intervene once again?

Andrew van Leeuwen and Stefan Bartholomaeus unpack all of that as well as discussing what's next for Gen3 and the latest push for a fifth event at Bathurst.

Full Credit to the Noise is here to review Lewis Hamilton's blockbuster F1 win in Spain and look ahead to the Supercars Darwin Triple Crown.

The Barcelona Grand Prix was a fascinating affair, headlined by Hamilton scoring his first proper win for Ferrari.

It was a blockbuster moment and while the VSC timing was kind, it was clearly a well-earned victory.

Given Kimi Antonelli didn't finish, George Russell appears to still be a bit off the boil and Charles Leclerc is a wall magnet, is Lewis now a genuine title contender? 

Oh, and what role has Kim Kardashian played in this Hamilton resurgence? 

Former Legend and AVL delve into it all.

They also ponder what's happened to Oscar Piastri and take a detailed look ahead to this weekend's Darwin Triple Crown.

Full Credit to the News takes a deep dive into the Matt Payne's blocked NASCAR deal.

The Grove Racing star was forced to turn down a NASCAR Cup Series start in an RCR Chevrolet after it was blocked by his Ford-shod Supercars team.

A predictable outcome, sure, but also the latest twist in the Payne/Grove/GM love triangle that is underpinning the silly season.

What does it mean? What did Payne do on his recent trip to the US? And who is in Grove's sights as a replacement?

Andrew van Leeuwen and Stefan Bartholomaeus unpack it all.

They also discuss the latest news out of Adelaide regarding MotoGP and the Grand Final and F1's bizarre engine outcomes.

Full Credit to the News delves into the big Supercars news of the week and looks ahead to the F1 Monaco Grand Prix.

Supercars double-headers have been in the headlines this week with the series investigating a bold back-to-back plan in Western Australia.

That could see Wanneroo open the 2028 season ahead of the new Perth street race – but is it really viable?

Andrew van Leeuwen and Stefan Bartholomaeus have their say.

They also look into a hybrid transport model being looked at for the New Zealand double-header as Supercars looks to abolish huge gaps in the schedule.

Mark Skaife, meanwhile, teed off on General Motors and Team 18 during the week. Did he have a point?

Grubs and deception dominated the Supercars news cycle this week – Full Credit to the News delves into these explosive stories.

Supercars referee Craig Baird found himself in hot water for comments made in mainstream media about Ryan Wood.

Did Baird get it wrong? Was Walkinshaw TWG Racing's reaction justified? And where did the term grub even come from?

Andrew van Leeuwen and Stefan Bartholomaeus have some very interesting insight into the matter.

Meanwhile it turns out Matt Payne wasn't being entirely truthful about his wrist injury before Tasmania. But is that really good enough?

There's also talk about Neil Crompton's position in the Supercars CEO race, expansion for Adelaide and more.

From Symmons Plains to Indy, Montreal to Charlotte, Full Credit to the Noise unpacks the biggest week in global motorsport.

It's been non-stop action across the globe with marquee races for IndyCar and NASCAR, the Canadian Grand Prix and, well, Symmons Plains.

Even the humble Tasmania track provided plenty of storylines, such as fleeting Toyota dominance, a Broc Feeney masterclass and some radio work that would make Kyle Sandilands blush.

At the Indy 500 we had a man on the inside, and by inside we mean in Scott McLaughlin's bus. It's a must-hear interview.

And in Montreal? Well, things are heating up as the Mercedes drivers go to war.

Former Legend and AVL delve into all that and more.

There was no shortage of talking points to come out of Sunday's Supercars action at Symmons Plains and we've got it all covered in our daily podcast.

It was a Ford fightback in the 200-kilometre finale as Broc Feeney snapped a nine-race winless streak to lead home Grove Racing's Matt Payne and Kai Allen.

Toyota's Saturday dominance was quickly consigned to history, while Anton De Pasquale and Jayden Ojeda were standouts for Chevrolet.

But was the three-stop mandate a good thing for the racing product?

Andrew van Leeuwen and Stefan Bartholomaeus discuss all that and plenty more in the Sunday edition of the daily podcast.
