Do you ever feel like you need to make up for all your bad performance at the end of the year to justify your existence at your job?

Do you ever just dust off some old tools just to remember what it feels like to be powerful again?

There was some racing. There were some old faces we’ve not seen in over 10 years in Formula 1. And we’re unsure about the lobbying that was going on. And yes, we’re definitely talking about the Qatar Grand Prix. Stay for the aftershow where we come up with a bold new advertising campaign for Life Cereal.

Would you gamble on a one stop strategy?

Would you go all in or fold on your championship chances?

We rolled the dice this week and jabbered on about a race that was both not bad, but also forgettable in so many ways. We also discussed and hypothesised about the rivalry between Ferrari drivers, why Perez made certain choices, and questioned live, the universe, and everything.

How much does it cost to buy off an FIA race steward?

Did McLaren out Ferrari Ferrari?

It was Brazil this week, and we went on very long because the race went on very long. There were safety issues to talk about. Community Service not being given out.

Is Michael Masi back?

Do you need an overrated, washed up race driver? If so, call Sergio Perez!

We’re back — shocker! — for the race that expresses its unique culture in F1 terms best: Mexico! It was an interesting race, where we discuss the morals of sport regulations and wonder what it takes to show up Sergio Perez!

How far will F1 go with cultural appropriation for the brraaaaaannnd?

Does Lando actually want to win the title?

You know, we’d forgotten what F1 was… WHO ARE WE KIDDING! We drone on for way too long about lots of news in F1 before we get into the Austin Grand Prix — the best F1 race in America.

Did you ever ruin something trying to make it better?

[REDACTED BY THE FIA]

This week, we sling some words around Singapore. We wonder if maybe the desire for overtakes has hallowed the core out of a once great grace.

RIP Papaya Rules

This week we’re BACK to BAKU. Aka what Monaco wants to be. It was a fun race. The Safety Car Curse ended, but only because of the sun being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Can we bring more spice than James Vowels? 

What deal with the devil would you make as a Ferrari driver? 

The monkey paw held up its end of the bargain delivering Charles what he wanted at a race that starts with MON. Racing was in Italy at the Temple of speed, where people lost their jobs, people got new jobs, and there was a lot of underperforming going on.

Did Disney put the hit out on Horner? 

Who is Lando racing?

There was a break. Lots happened. There was a race — in The Netherlands! Less happened there. We talked about it and all of the alleged things that happened on, off, and in between the track.

Did Merc’s sabotage backfire?

How DO you convert a P2 into a P8, and a P1 into P4?

This week, at the Spa we had teams go all in on Strategy, but one of them forgot cheating isn’t a real strategy. We provide an update on Lewis’ bounce back. We ruminate on the merits of one great teams resurging. As always feedback is always welcome at [email protected] -- we even have a segment for you! Please just email us. We’re lonely.
