The Casual F1 Couple is back with a jam-packed episode! We kick things off with the big Cadillac news, celebrate the return of our favorite guy Valtteri Bottas, and dive into a wild Zandvoort recap full of DNFs, Ferrari heartbreak, and Charles Leclerc’s hilltop moment of contemplation. Looking ahead, we gear up for Monza while keeping the conversation light with our signature not-so-technical talk.

Episode 14

This week, Katie and Eric dive into the soggy chaos of the Belgian Grand Prix. While breaking down the on-track drama, they take a hard detour into Belgian waffle-making, ask the important question where is Lance Stroll’s mom, and get way too excited during the gridwalk. Predictions for Hungary are made (with questionable accuracy), and we learn about some pizza and burger shops during the megafan segment. It's F1, food, and mild confusion — just another week with your favorite bickering race fans.

Christian Horner is out, Silverstone was actually exciting, and Eric finally found joy in a race weekend — miracles do happen! In this episode of Casual F1 Couple, we break down the drama behind Horner's exit, recap all the action (and rain) from Silverstone, and fangirl a little too hard over Nico. Katie keeps trolling poor Lance Stroll, Eric dives deep into tire talk (again), and quizzes Katie on tires and geography (again!). Plus: a heated anti-musical rant, struggles with British last names that should be easy, and a look ahead to Belgium.

#12
07/03/2025

Episode 12

This week on Casual F1 Couple, we dive into the chaos of the Austrian GP — where McLaren fought each other harder than we fight over pudding flavors. Eric brings his unsolicited knowledge of British last names (he Googled one thing and now thinks he’s a historian), while Katie desperately tries to keep the conversation on actual F1. Our megafan segment gets Astonishingly nerdy. We discuss Red Bull’s cursed second seat, plus wild podium surprises, spicy speculations, and a spoiler-filled debrief of the new F1 movie.

Episode 11

This week on Casual F1 Couple, we’re celebrating Father’s Day the only way we know how — by watching grown men yell at each other in carbon fiber rockets. We break down all the action from the Montreal Grand Prix: McLaren's duke it out, Max and George might have buried the beef (or just paused it), and another megafan segment where Katie knows more about both drivers than Eric. Plus, more tire talk from Eric!

In this episode of Casual F1 Couple, Katie and Eric break down a wild weekend in Barcelona: McLaren’s continued dominance, the late safety car that shook things up, and the drama that followed. Eric gets fired up about Mad Max (not the movie) and we find out what happens when Eric has a child-free week and access to an open bar. Spoiler: it's chaotic. Grab a drink (but not if you’re Red Bull’s strategy team) and join us for the laughs...

Episode 9

Monaco might be glamorous, but was the race? In this week’s episode of Casual F1 Couple, Katie and Eric break down the Monaco Grand Prix—from the glitz and glamour of the grid to the... less thrilling on-track action. Eric gets deep into tire talk (again), Katie forgets key moments (again), and both of them wonder if watching Monaco is more about the yachts than the racing.
