Enjoy.

Join Peter for the first livestream of 2025.  Even though the F1 season is still a month or so away there's still plenty about which to talk. Subjects range - as they do -  from Lewis's prospects at Ferrari, to George Russell's status at Mercedes and to Sophia Loren's role in the 2000 Pirelli calendar.

Peter talks at length with the driver who in 2024 underwent open-heart surgery before rising again to win. Only one other driver in motor racing history - Robert Kubica - has won both a World Championship Grand Prix and a major rally championship; the other is Heikki Kovalainen. Winner of the 2008 Hungarian GP for McLaren-Mercedes and a podium finisher for Renault F1, Heikki subsequently won two Japanese Rally Championships with Toyota in 2022 and 2023. Then, in the spring of 2024,  Heikki's life changed suddenly when he underwent urgent open-heart surgery in Finland. For two hours he was on life-support.
As we now know, the operation was a resounding success. Heikki was soon back in business, presenting the trophies on the podium for the Secto Rally of Finland in early August, before winning again in Japan. It wasn't over, though: on November 25 he was lying a stunning third in the WRC2 division of the Rally of Japan when he crashed heavily on a fast right-hander. As he says in this interview, "it gave the new heart system a bit of a work-out..." 
And still there was to be an epilogue: basically uninjured, Heikki on December 14-15 jumped into a car totally new to him and won the all-tarmac Union Rally in Italy. 
All for the love of his sport. 
Which is why, in our opinion Heikki was unquestionably the star of 2024 In this interview he talks to Peter about his surgery (44:30); about his massive shunt in Japan (28.53); and about beating the likes of Michael Schumacher, Sebastien Loeb, David Coulthard, Felipe Massa, Sebastian Vettel and Toyota's latest Rally star, Sami Pajari, in head-to-head match races in a wide variety of cars (17:00).

Join Peter Windsor as he talks at length with Peter Wright, the former BRM and Lotus engineer who, in a career that began in the late 1960s, not only pioneered ground effect with Colin Chapman but who also subsequently worked for the FIA on such safety developments as the survival cell, the halo, the HANS collar, circuit barriers and composite helmet design. Along the way, Peter also found time to create his own self-sustaining glider, to fly a Tiger Moth and to restore a Bugatti T51.  
Peter Wright spoke to Peter Windsor from his home in Presteigne, on the Welsh-English border, just before Christmas. This uncut recording of the conversation revolves around the recent publication of Peter's autobiography ( "How Did I Get Here?", which can be ordered via email from www.howdidigethere.co.uk) and includes several sections not featured in our YouTube video. It begins with Peter admitting that, yes, he had at one point been a bit of a hippy...

Peter caught up with @cameronCcTV on the Monday before Christmas to look back at 2024 and also ahead into 2025/26.  Pour the Baileys, jink the ice...and enjoy. This episode is dedicated to my dear friend, Cyd Williams. He was a fast F3/F2/F5000 driver but he was also a Top Man, as Frank Williams used to say.

Kick back and relax as Peter talks through dozens of F1-related questions and comments on his latest livestream.  There's lots of Lewis, Charles, Ferrari, McLaren, Lando, Oscar and George but there's some Georges Boillot, too - and, of course, some Jim Clark. Those pistachio buns are heating in the oven - and the coffee, straight from the Pergamino shop, Antioquia, Colombia, is perfectly-brewed.

The Constructors' World Championship hung in the balance going into Abu Dhabi but McLaren-Mercedes nailed it down with a superlative performance from Lando Norris: he took the pole and dominated the race, leading home the two Ferraris - McLaren's only rivals for the title - by a comfortable margin.  Oscar Piastri qualified a strong P2 in the other McLaren but collided with Max Verstappen's Red Bull-Honda at the first corner; he finished P10.  The factory Mercedes were fourth and fifth, with Sir Lewis Hamilton (on medium Pirellis) passing George Russell (on the harder tyre) in sight of the flag.  In this podcast Peter not only details the three days of Abu Dhabi as they happened but also talks to Mario Isola, Pirelli's Director of motor sport about the 2024 season and the prospects for 2025 and 2026. There's also a special opportunity to buy a superbly-detailed Red Bull model from Alalgam. Details below.

A one-place grid penalty was brushed aside by Max Verstappen in Qatar: within about 25 seconds of the lights going out - for as long as it took to float into T1 on the inside of George Russell, RB20 perfectly-balanced - it was Max in front, with everyone else in his turbulence.  Lando Norris fought him hard but was eventually (and needlessly, in our opinion) penalised for not respecting yellow flags. Russell, ironically, was also penalised for a Safety Car infraction...which left P2 to Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, thereby keeping the Constructors' championship very much alive.  Here are all of Peter's summings-up from the three days of Qatar - plus the additional content he produced on race morning, when news broke of Verstappen's penalty.
