With the FIA making adjustments to the 2026 F1 regulations, we decided it was time to do a deeper dive into what’s actually changing — and why so many drivers and fans have been questioning it.

In this episode, we break down active aero, overtake mode, energy deployment, harvesting, super clipping, and the machine learning/software side of the new cars. Because the bigger question isn’t just whether the cars are faster or slower — it’s whether the driver still feels fully in control.

Is this still the DNA of F1, or are the new rules changing t...

In this episode, we recap all the action from the season finale of F1 Academy in Las Vegas.

It was Doriane Pin’s championship weekend — converting a chaotic, rain-affected Race 1 into a crucial win and fastest lap, then managing the risk in Race 2 to bring the car home and seal the title. Maya Weug’s hopes took a hit with that formation-lap collision in Race 1, but she still charged back onto the podium in Race 2 and pushed the fight all the way to the final laps of the season.

On the other side of the garage, Chloe...

The 2025 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix gave us a title decider under the Yas Marina lights with the most chaotic combination possible: Max Verstappen wins the race, but Lando Norris walks away world champion by just two points.

We break down how the podium of Verstappen, Piastri and Norris ended up delivering McLaren’s first drivers’ title of this era, why that tiny two-point swing hurts so much for Max fans, and how this race capped off a season where Red Bull went from struggling early to giving Max ten straight podiums to close things out.

The 2025 Qatar Grand Prix gave us full tyre chaos and one very costly McLaren call. 🔥

With Pirelli’s 25-lap stint limit turning this into a mandatory two-stop race, an early Safety Car split the field. Red Bull boxed, McLaren stayed out, and Max Verstappen drove off to another Qatar win while Oscar Piastri salvaged P2 and Carlos Sainz put Williams back on the podium.

We break down McLaren’s gamble, how that one decision shaped the race, what Sainz’s podium means for Williams, and how the title fight between Norris, Verstappen, and Piastri now heads into a th...

The 2025 Mexico City Grand Prix delivered drama, dominance, and a little chaos 🇲🇽🔥

Lando Norris crushed the field with a 30-second win — McLaren’s first Mexico victory since Ayrton Senna in 1989 — to retake the Drivers’ Championship lead.

Meanwhile, Oscar Piastri lost the championship lead, George Russell kept things spicy on the radio, and Lewis Hamilton’s penalty sparked debate over whether he was the only driver who deserved one.
