Has Barcelona Changed Everything for Ferrari? | S3E9
Formula One has a habit of rewriting narratives overnight.One victory becomes a turning point. One difficult weekend becomes a crisis. And after Lewis Hamilton's triumph in Barcelona, the story around Ferrari has changed faster than ever.In this episode, I discuss Lewis' remarkable form, Charles Leclerc's recent struggles, and the growing belief that Ferrari is entering a new era. But while there's plenty to celebrate, I also ask an important question: are we letting one historic weekend define the entire story?Has Barcelona changed everything for Ferrari? Or are we getting ahead of ourselves?Let's talk about it.F1rst: An F1 Podcast is an independent fan podcast. Opinions are personal.

Monaco GP 2026 - Misery or Magic | S3E8
Monaco rarely produces average weekends.The tight streets, unforgiving barriers, and tiny margins for error mean drivers and teams often leave the Principality feeling either pure misery or pure magic.In this episode, I break down the biggest winners and losers from the Monaco Grand Prix, share my thoughts on where each team and driver falls on the misery-to-magic scale, and look ahead to Barcelona. I'll also touch on the FIA's verdict regarding the ADUO placement regulations and the surprising developments surrounding the potential decision.Was Monaco misery or magic for you?

Five Races In — What Do We Actually Know? | S3E7
We're back. It's been a while, and a lot has happened.Five races into the 2026 season and the picture is starting to take shape — Mercedes dominating on paper, Kimi Antonelli announcing himself to the world, Charles having a couple of weekends I'd rather forget, and the midfield throwing up some genuinely surprising stories.In this episode I'm not recapping races. I want to talk about what these first five rounds have actually taught us — if anything — and what I think is coming. The Mercedes engine compression trick that just got banned, the Antonelli versus Russell battle getting genuinely spicy inside that garage, the ADUO verdict dropping this week that could completely reshape Ferrari's season, and Charles — because I have thoughts, and Monaco cannot come soon enough.F1rst: An F1 Podcast is an independent fan podcast.

Band-Aid or Fix? — Miami's Return & The 2026 Regulation Shake-Up | S3E6
We're back. After four race-less weeks, the 2026 F1 season is finally returning and Miami cannot come soon enough.But let's be honest, it never really went quiet.In this episode I'm unpacking everything from the break. Red Bull's struggles, Verstappen's frustrating start, the Lambiase move to McLaren, Ferrari's busy April, and some interesting calendar speculation around a potential Saudi GP return.But the two biggest topics for me heading into Miami are:The ADUO System — what it is, why it matters, and why Ferrari potentially qualifying for it could be one of the biggest storylines of the season.The new Miami regulation changes — what the FIA has changed, what it means for racing, and why a lot of it for me feels more like a band-aid than a real fix.This one's a mix with confirmed facts, rumours worth discussing, and my honest take on all of it.F1rst: An F1 Podcast is an independent fan podcast.

Promise or Problem? — Japan GP & The 2026 Regulation Debate | S3E5
The Japanese Grand Prix delivered on-track action — but more importantly, it gave us our clearest look yet at how Formula 1’s 2026 regulations are really shaping up.In this episode, I recap the key moments from Suzuka before diving into the growing debate after the first three races of the season.On one side, there are real positives: improved racing entertainment, certain tracks feeling revitalized, and a noticeable reduction in the performance gap that once defined dominant eras.But the concerns are just as clear. Ongoing issues with battery deployment, inconsistencies between power units, reliability questions, and a fundamentally different racing feel are raising serious doubts about the direction of this new era.So where does that leave us?I break down both sides of the argument and share my perspective — cautious, slightly skeptical, but still optimistic… depending on how the FIA responds. Because ultimately, the success of these regulations may come down to whether the right adjustments are made before these early issues become long-term problems.Music credit: "Be Free" by Music Unlimited

A New Dawn for F1 — Australia Tests the 2026 Era | S3E4
In this episode I take a first look at the new era of Formula 1 as the 2026 regulations make their debut at the Australian Grand Prix.The new cars have brought a completely different dynamic to the sport, and Australia may have already lifted the sandbags from Mercedes, showing why George Russell is already being talked about as a championship favorite.But it is not all one-sided. Scuderia Ferrari showed promising pace in Australia and could still be in the fight if development heads in the right direction.I break down the early pros and cons of these new regulations and what this “new dawn” might mean for the future of F1.Curious to hear your take on the new era of the sport.
