This week we chat with Simon Lazenby (and his dog!), Sky Sports F1 lead presenter. We talk life on the F1 circus and his thoughts on F1 right now, PLUS, his new film about Damon Hill leading up to his 1996 triumph, which is out during British GP week and trust me, its worth a watch! We didn't even get onto his book, "Pressure" so we'll have to have a round 2!

Loved chatting to Simon, top bloke! I hope you enjoy listening as much as we did recording it!

P.S Sorry to the frog! It wasn't me. Listen to the end to find out!
