Gears & Glory

Kimi Antonelli is officially crowned our 2026 Formula 1 World Champion! And this barely scratches the surface of a hectic weekend, from Isack Hadjar's pre-FP1 altercations, Haas driver swaps, and on-track teammate scraps at Ferrari, this Mexico Grand Prix was overflowing with drama and tension.

ALISHA PALMOWSKI CROWNED F1A CHAMPION! And also there was an F1 race. Kimi just about skated by without clinching the championship, and we have Max, Charles, and Lando to thank for an exciting end to the race. With some commentary on the physical toll of this sport, we just about had enough to cover this week on Gears & Glory.

Join Sof and special guest averagef1consumer for a Singapore recap where — shocker ! — the sprint was one of the highs? With a bit of a season-recap and a bit of a get-to-know you mixed in, this is a debrief you won't want to miss. We promise to have better mic quality than Max.

Maybe we should have the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia every year. Chaos was unleashed in the formation lap and there was plenty of action with near-constant battles, bad luck, good luck, and some of the best recovery drives we've seen all season.

Liv and Sof reunite to give you the recap of all recap for the race of all races.

Join Sof to recap a DOOZY of a grand prix! Azerbaijan really showed out this year, with dominant performances, mid-race chaos, teammate debacles, and Isack's incredible return after injury. Sadly, no Toto on FaceTime for this one. Maybe one day.

Join Sof and James to discuss the latest in the world of F1 and motorsport all around, from the divisive McLaren logo update, Abbi Pulling at INDYNXT, NASCAR fist fights, and — most importantly — a discussion of the renowned series by Anita Driver. Buckle up for some laughs.
