This week is a bit different as we have our 3rd guest on the podcast and it's my good mate Charlotte Ford! We talk about our history and how we met in 2019 to our lockdown live streams to her starting Zed8 Motorsport (Charlottes' own race team) to Zed8's first race to making her own carbon fiber business which takes her to Praga managing the Praga Cup with drivers such as Jimmy Broadbent (very well known online creator) and Ben Collins (ex Top Gear Stig) and of course getting engaged at Christmas last year!

Charlotte's story is incredible because despite her young age (and only a few years older than me), she has achieved so much and it's only going up! Thank you for joining me Charlotte and I hope you all enjoy this episode!

From the upside-down race that was Silverstone to the flare-encompassed Red Bull Ring in Austria, Ferrari show off their latest BBQ invention whilst rumours circulate that Max is still seeing orange from being blinded by the smoke. The Austrian GP certainly wasn't a slouch and yes of course...the infamous T4 crash happens once again...here is in all its glory...The Austrian GP!

With the sad passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, it seemed fitting to have a small tribute for the longest serving monarch in British history. HM The Queen was present at the first ever Formula 1 championship race in Silverstone in 1950, which I found absolutely fascinating that she watched our beloved sport at its inauguration. She was an inspiration to many and to me, I took the lesson 'No matter how important/famous you are...never lose your humour'. 

Rest in piece and may you and Phillip be with one another.

After the tribute, we jump straight into what was my favourite race of the year so far, Silverstone. Crashes, Close calls and amazing overtakes. What more could you want from a Grand Prix!

Sainz comes so close to his first victory in Formula 1 but still, Ferrari have problems and struggles with reliability. When will we see the end of Red Bull dominance? Hmm...Imagine saying that a few years ago

After the torture, if you are a Ferrari fan, I talk about going to the World Museum in Liverpool to see the Doctor Who exhibition as I show embarrassing pictures from my childhood from Doctor Who exhibitions years ago...

Ah Ferrari...Ferrari...Ferrari. More problems troubled their engines as we see a race full of shock retirements and lots of overtakes...Baku really is Monaco with long straights isn't it?!

In 1 week...Vettel retires, GOATifi and Albon P1 and P3 in FP3, George POLE, Alonso signs with Aston Martin, Alpine announces Piastri and PIASTRI DECLINES! In...ONE...WEEK!

Welcome to a new series where I discuss and report news from the world of F1 in ReportingWithRizzoli!

As soon as the F1 theme ended and we saw the river on the streets of Monaco, not only did we flashback to Spa 2021 but we thought the drivers might need to borrow some of the yachts parked in the harbor! Luckily the race got underway and ended under a TIMER, not by laps! The race ended with a record-breaking result!

Spain…without the S for Ferrari on this race weekend, as we saw another dominant 1-2 finish from Red Bull and a Leclerc retirement! But we did get to see a fantastic battle between George Russell and reigning world champion Max Verstappen!

Ah Florida…you were…interesting…iconic maybe…Fake harbours, Brundle’s now iconic grid walk and everything else that happened in car park by the stadium of the Miami Dolphins was certainly unique! 😅
