The Fast and the Curious

The double World Champion and current championship leader has added his name to the list of Fast and Curious co-hosts.

Max Verstappen joins Betty and Christian from Monaco to look back at his journey to the pinnacle of Formula One and what keeps him motivated to stay at the top.

From convincing his mum to let him get his first go-kart, to realising how bloody good he is (Betty's words) and dominating the sport Max breaks down how it feels to be part of a world-beating team and what it takes to keep winning... he also has time to pick holes in Christian's F1 merch collection.

Betty and Christian are off to McLaren HQ for a chat with CEO Zak Brown. With so many listeners getting in touch with questions about how F1 could be more environmentally friendly and McLaren launching a sustainability report, it felt as good a time as any to find out if the sport can really go green.

Of course there's also room for a tour of the McLaren site (including a look at one at where they actually build F1 cars) and the team finding out if Lando Norris has to let the boss win when they play golf.

And to top off the episode, Greg joins Betty and Christian for a debrief as well as a look ahead to Monaco a a HUGE co-host announcement.

George Russell (aka Curious George as he like to call himself on the podcast) is back for a catch-up with Betty and Christian during the early break in the season.
