F1 TV commentator Alex Brundle joins the pod to break down everything
going on in Formula 1 right now -- from the 2026 regulation changes to

actually means.

Verstappen. Why Red Bull's losing key people left and right. The latest
news on the 2026 regulation changes and how we got to this point.

qualifying feels off and what needs to change. The reality of driver
power and why an F1 “union” wouldn't work like in other sports leagues

Will McLaren catching Ferrari?
What the hell is going on with Williams and Aston Martin?
