The NR F1 Podcast > Your Formula 1 Podcast from Norfolk, UK

Summer is over! OK, so that's a bit harsh - but for F1, the racing is back baby, yeah!

Edition 189 of The NR F1 Podcast brings you the key news from the summer break ahead of F1's return in Belgium. Michael Bailey, Steve Rust plus Callum and Dan Springall, are on duty to offer up their thoughts as we all gear up for the big return.

This podcast is the first of our 3 pods in 3 days, with our Belgium GP preview and Spa plus mid-season F1 predictions on their way.

The British county of Norfolk is where the iconic success of Team Lotus was cultivated, where Ayrton Senna, Martin Brundle, Mark Webber and more honed their race craft - and home to The NR F1 Podcast.

Time for a break. The Hungarian Grand Prix delivered more talking points than action - but that's ideal as F1 gets stuck into its summer shut down before the second half of the 2017 arrives.

Edition 188 of The NR F1 Podcast sees Michael Bailey, Kyle Cumbers and Richard Baxter review the track action at this year's Hungaroring grand prix, discuss all the key news from the Budapest test that followed the racing and review some of the action from a roller-coaster first half of the year.

The pod will take a short break itself from here, but will be back to preview the second half of the season and the racing at Spa, in time for the 2017 Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix. See you then!

This was supposed to be Ferrari's championship. Ferrari's return to form. Sebastian Vettel's crowning glory.

Of course, it might still be! But it's quite clear from the pod's F1 predictions ahead of the 2017 Hungarian Grand Prix, that faith in the Maranello resurgence is losing traction.

Edition 187 of The NR F1 Podcast sees Michael Bailey, Perry Hamilton and Steve Rust dish up their predictions ahead of the action at Budapest's Hungaroring - and before this season's summer break kicks in.

Camel on a surfboard. Surely everyone knows it as the camel on a surfboard?

Edition 186 of The NR F1 Podcast sees Michael Bailey, Perry Hamilton and Steve Rust look ahead to the 2017 Hungarian Grand Prix, as Formula 1 prepares for its last race ahead of this season's summer break.

Could it also be the last race for Jolyon Palmer? Could it be perfect timing for Lewis Hamilton? And will the pod work out who those other five Hungaroring winners are from the last decade?!

Could it be that F1 is fighting for its very survival, while working out what price to put on that of its drivers?

Edition 185 of The NR F1 Podcast sees Michael Bailey, Perry Hamilton and Steve Rust discuss the big talking points in this week's Formula 1 news - including the confirmed arrival of the protective halo from 2018 and Robert Kubica's impending test in a 2017 car with Renault; that follows the final grand prix of the season before the summer break.

What a special day for The NR F1 Podcast - and now you're going to hear all about it.

Edition 184 sees Michael Bailey, Kyle Cumbers and Richard Baxter recall all the 2017 British Grand Prix action LIVE from the start-finish straight, moments after a Silverstone rain shower and the Formula 1 podium champagne shower.

Sure, Michael repeats himself a lot as he gets a little bit excited and lost in technical issues. Sure, Yaz talking about her unicorn seemed a little unnecessary. And sure, you all wish you got to watch the race from the bottom of Hangar Straight - then it may have felt a little better than it actually was for you too.

But in a world where Jolyon Palmer can't even bank on his Renault making the start, there is no point doing anything other than enjoying the excitement of others - and maybe thinking about doing likewise in 12 months time.

We're ready for our big day out! The NR F1 Podcast will be at Silverstone on Sunday for the 2017 Formula 1 British Grand Prix - and to celebrate, the crew have their latest stab at predicting the action.

Edition 183 of The NR F1 Podcast calls on whether Lewis Hamilton's home domination will continue, which team-mates will crash into each other - and whether this will be the race Jolyon Palmer finally picks up a point.

The pod is the third of our 3 pods in 3 days. To complete our latest trilogy, take in our:

A home grand prix! What better time for Lewis Hamilton to get his F1 world championship challenge back on track?

Edition 182 of The NR F1 Podcast discusses the Mercedes man's bid for a fourth British Grand Prix win on the bounce, a record-equalling fifth chequered flag at his home race and the pod's chance to take in some live Formula 1 action.

But it is far from a Lewis love-in as the crew also tackle Silverstone's future fate, plans for Norfolk to step in and tucks into some of the latest F1 news as the calendar tackles back to back races.

The pod is the second of our 3 pods in 3 days. To complete our latest trilogy, take in our Austrian GP review (e181: https://audioboom.com/posts/6095443) - while our British Grand Prix predictions pod is soon to follow.

More run of the mill - but still a shed-load to talk about. Don't worry about that.

Michael Bailey is back in the chair so ably kept warm by Perry Hamilton, for edition 181 of The NR F1 Podcast - as the crew dissect Sebastian Vettel & Lewis Hamilton: The Return.

They also wonder how far Valtteri Bottas is from joining their Formula 1 level, and whether the pod has been too harsh on Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen endures another nightmare - this time at Red Bull's home race.

And as usual, the crew dish out their Of The Weekend Awards - in between the Springall brothers' in-fighting, that is.

With back-to-back races, the pod is once again bringing you 3 pods in 3 days. To complete the trilogy will be the NR F1's British Grand Prix preview and predictions pods.
