Jeddah was an incredible race from start to finish. Max Verstappen is back in the running, battling it out with a close call and costly penalty on the first lap with Oscar Piastri, and we saw a red flag at the very beginning of the race with Yuki Tsunoda and Pierre Gasly making contact. And, with close racing, the first Ferrari podium of the season, and strong team work from Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon at Williams, the field is closing in more every week.

We're breaking down driver swaps, rumors for next year, and just how dominant McLaren really is.

Bahrain was a stark contrast from Suzuka, with wild passing, audacious pit stop strategies, and the ever growing battle between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. With strong drives from George Russell and Ollie Bearman, to disappointment for Williams drivers Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz, the weekend was never short on excitement.

We're breaking down Ferrari upgrades, safety car calls, and Yuki bringing the first points to the second Red Bull seat in half a year.

Yuki Tsunoda replaced Liam Lawson ahead of Yuki's home race in Japan, Lando Norris continued to fight against his own team for a championship, and Max Verstappen reminded everyone why he's a four time world champion.

While the race itself wasn't the most exciting -- the top 10 remained largely unchanged from qualifying to race end, with Lewis Hamilton and Isack Hadjar swapping positions -- there's plenty to break down.

We're talking driver swaps, the history of Red Bull Racing's culture as a team, Kimi Antonelli vs Isack Hadjar for Rookie of the Year, and more.

Formula 1 is officially back, and the Australian Grand Prix was a wet, chaotic, crash-filled race. From growing pains and bad strategy at Ferrari for Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc, to six retirements due to crashes (Isack Hadjar, Liam Lawson, Gabriel Bortoleto, Fernando Alonso, Jack Doohan, and Carlos Sainz), we ended up with a race result we didn’t expect. Plus, McLaren showed continued strength with their car, as well as the return of Papaya Rules.

And, a moment of extreme empathy and sportsmanship was displayed by Anthony Hamilton, Lewis Hamilton's father, when rookie Isack Hadjar crashed into the wall during the formation lap. We talk about why it's ok to be emotional, why some emotions are still perceived as "bad" or "too emotional," and why kindness can be more important than competition.

Alpine is a team that has been known by many names -- Renault, Bennetton Racing Team, and Lotus. Across the team's history, legendary drivers like Michael Schumacher and Kimi Raikkonen have filled the seat, as well as names you still know today. Fernando Alonso won his two Driver's Championships with the team, and the team also took home those Constructor's titles. The team is also responsible for the debut of Aryton Senna, and the addition of the Turbo engine in Formula 1. 

But in addition to victory, Alpine has one of the most talked about scandals in Formula 1: Crash Gate. With the return of Flavio Briatore to the team, as well as Felippe Massa's new lawsuit over the title he lost to Lewis Hamilton, one decision in 2008 is still effecting Formula 1 today. Plus, we talk about the current state of the team, with Pierre Gasly taking the lead after Esteban Ocon's departure, and the stacked young talent including Jack Doohan and Franco Colapinto.
