The Race F1 Podcast

Where Verstappen's title ranks and why Mercedes was so quick in Vegas


Listen Later

Edd Straw is joined by Mark Hughes, Scott Mitchell-Malm and Ben Anderson to discuss Max Verstappen clinching his fourth drivers' world title with fifth place in the Las Vegas Grand Prix. But where does this year's championship success rank alongside his other winning seasons?

They also explain what led to Mercedes' stunning turn of speed this weekend, which saw it clinch an unexpected one-two with George Russell and Lewis Hamilton. There's also chat about why Charles Leclerc was unhappy after the race, why McLaren was off the pace this weekend, and how Nico Hulkenberg won the midfield battle and Alpine lost it.

Plus, as ever, the guys answer another load of questions sent in by The Race Members' Club.
