Christian and Betty react to an historic Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix. Lewis Hamilton guided his Ferrari from the front row to take his first victory for the Scuderia. Imagine telling that to someone three years ago! George Russell and Lando Norris rounded off the podium to make the first all-British F1 podium since 1968!

-Are Lewis and Ferrari able to mount a challenge to the top of the championship standings?

-How can things be so different the other side of the Ferrari garage?

-And why is Betty making national newspaper headlines?

Betty and Christian grade every team's start to the season with a little help from new favourite feature, the Drag Race style decision-making. Who will get a coveted A and be one of the tops? Who is in the bottoms? Has anybody failed? They also get stuck in with plenty of your listener questions, some F1 related, others, not so much…

Do you think their grades are right? What would you grade the teams so far this season? Let us know in the comments!

Betty and Christian unpack another weekend of Formula 1 action at Suzuka. For the second race in a row, Kimi Antonelli took the win and is now the youngest ever World Championship leader. But could he win the whole thing? Oscar Piastri took second place and finished his first Grand Prix of the year, are McLaren bouncing back? And could Max REALLY be on his way out?

Plenty of discussion to be had as the sport heads into the break, including how potential rule changes could alter the pecking order, and who went under the radar in Japan…

We will be back next week with our Spring break report cards for all 11 teams.
