Join Brian and Patrick on the Hard Compound for this very special episode. The SHOCK Lewis Hamilton to Ferrari signing. The SHOCK F1 rejecting Andretti Cadillac news. We go through what this means for Lewis, for Mercedes, for Ferrari, and how this deal sets a precedent with Formula 1 that may prove even more impactful than the Lionel Messi deal with Inter Miami. Top athletes are now foundational to branding and the private equity takeover of sports. And Lewis Hamilton understands this better than most. But, wait. There's more. F1 exposed it's nasty anti-American bias this week with the rejecting of the Andretti bid. We breakdown for you what this means for F1's future in America. Give a listen and subscribe.

Join Brian and Patrick on the Hard Compound for a look back at F1 2023. Michael Jordan, game 6? Try Max Verstappen, F1 2023. One of the greatest seasons in racing history. Plus, why Charles Leclerc is like James Bond, and why this maybe isn't such a good thing. Where Nico Hulkenberg, Sergio Perez, and Carlos Sainz will wind up. Why we expect Toto Wolff to sell out in 2025 and Apple Inc. to buy in. The problem with F1 sprints, and our efforts to put an end to the parochial British control over the sport. This is a good one.

Join Brian and Patrick on the Hard Compound. A very special episode. We decided to postpone our F1 2023 year in review show and delve into the highly plausible scenario where a LIV Golf-type organization seeks a hostile takeover of F1. You do not want to miss this one.

The end of the season of the sport we love best. The best cars in the world, the best drivers in the world, racing all over the world. And at Abu Dhabi, the final race of 2023, we were treated to what makes Formula 1 so special. Charles Leclerc never quit--and nearly got Ferrari a P2 in the Constructor's. George Russell gave Mercedes the final push it so desperately needed to end on a positive. Rookie Oscar Piastri shined, while the most veteran racer in F1 history, Fernando Alonso, miraculously took P4 ahead of future legends Charles Leclerc, Lando Norris, and Carlos Sainz. We bring you all the analysis, all the rumors, all our predictions, and share the joy.

The haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate but the Las Vegas Grand Prix was outstanding. Charles Leclerc takes it to Red Bull. Logan Sargeant saves his seat. Lance Stroll outraces Alonso. Redemption was the theme on the Strip. Celebrities came out, venture capitalists flew in, and American auto manufacturers dropped cash money for a seat at the F1 table. But, wait. There's more. Full race analysis, plus a review of Abu Dhabi. Including our bittersweet predictions for  Fernando Alonso and the Monaco Grand Prix. For good and glory, and lots of money, the new era of F1 has begun.

Mexico City cheers on hometown favorite, Sergio Perez. Who sadly crashes out on Lap 1, Turn 1.  Does this mean Lewis Hamilton will now miraculously finish the season in P2? And it looks like Ferrari, following a superb drive by Charles Leclerc, may have just locked up P3 in the Constructor's. Despite Lando Norris having one of the best races of his career. But, wait. There's more. Why we predict Daniel Ricciardo won't get promoted back to Red Bull. Why we expect Gunther Steiner will get fired. And why we hope to see a NASCAR takeover of Team Haas. Plus, a brief tribute to Friends star Matthew Perry.

Austin, Texas once again puts on a big, boisterous, welcoming party for F1.  Where Lewis Hamilton takes the fight to Red Bull. Finally. Logan Sargeant earns a point. Finally. And Ferrari implodes. Again! But, wait. There's more. Why we predict Gunther Steiner and Daniel Ricciardo will both be out of F1 before the 2024 season. Why we don't like these ultra-technical disqualifications. And why we make the case for Saturday sprints. All that and the coming Hollywood takeover of Formula 1. Led by Apple Inc. Oh, and Max Verstappen joins a select few F1 legends, earning his 50th Grand Prix victory. Yada yada.
