Is the FIA right to help Alonso and Honda?
FIA president Mohammad Ben Sulayem grabbed the headlines during the recent Madrid Grand Prix weekend with his support of the need for changes to help Aston Martin’s struggling engine supplier Honda - and therefore ensure Fernando Alonso stays in F1. But is it fair to grant Honda and Alonso special support?In the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast, presented by Atlassian, Edd Straw is joined by Glenn Freeman and Jon Noble to answer that question, discuss the wider situation around ADUO (Additional Development and Upgrade Opportunities), and debate whether the FIA president should be getting involved in keeping a driver on the grid.Edd, Glenn and Jon also discuss Alpine’s latest big name technical appointment, explain why Melbourne isn't in a position to host the first race of the 2027 season, and share their thoughts on the recent Max vs 100 event at Silverstone, in which Max Verstappen was tasked with defeating 100 karters from a back of the grid start.Get bonus F1 podcasts, extra content and ad-free listening), sign-up to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today.We're giving away two 3-day tickets to the 2026 F1 USGP!

Tech Show: Why doesn't car compatibility play a bigger role in driver recruitment?
In lots of sports, data and analytics play a huge role in recruitment, ensuring teams sign players that are compatible with a coach or team’s style of play. So why doesn’t it happen more in F1 - especially when drivers often struggle with a new car’s characteristics when moving teams? That’s the main topic of debate in the latest episode of The Race F1 Tech Show, as host Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson discuss whether teams should sign drivers based on their suitability to deal with certain car characteristics. Gary also has his say on F1’s underwhelming debut race at the Madring, and why overtaking around the track was always going to be hugely difficult with the current generation of cars, plus he answers listener questions on braking systems, PU penalties and flip-top wings.Get bonus F1 podcasts, extra content and ad-free listening), sign-up to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today.We're giving away two 3-day tickets to the 2026 F1 USGP!

Will a Monaco sprint race work? Our reaction to shock 2027 F1 calendar
On the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast, presented by Atlassian, we react to the news that F1 is upping the sprints to 10 in 2027, with the season starting and finishing with the two-races-per-weekend format and Monaco, of all places, getting that treatment for the first time. Is this just another step towards sprints being ubiquitous, and if it is, will that change F1 for better or worse? Joining Edd Straw to answer those questions and debate the 2027 F1 calendar in general are Josh Suttill and special guest Nelson Valkenburg, F1 commentator for Viaplay Netherlands.Get bonus F1 podcasts, extra content and ad-free listening), sign-up to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today.We're giving away two 3-day tickets to the 2026 F1 USGP!

Mailbag: Is Norris '27 title favourite + Why does F1 keep adding soulless street tracks?
The latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast, presented by Atlassian, is the first of our regular post-race mailbag shows, with Edd Straw joined by Ben Anderson to tackle listener questions sent in after the Spanish Grand Prix. Among the topics covered this time are whether F1 should consider allowing no-stop strategies, why F1 keeps adding soulless street circuits at the expense of classics, and whether Lando Norris should be considered the 2027 title favourite. There are also questions about Franco Colapinto's season so far, whether the latest generation of F1 cars is flattering Kimi Antonelli (and hurting George Russell), McLaren's pit stop problems, and a pair of F3 prospects, namely recently crowned champion Ugo Ugochukwu and Audi junior Freddie Slater.If you'd like to ask a question (and get bonus F1 podcasts, extra content and ad-free listening), sign-up to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today.We're giving away two 3-day tickets to the 2026 F1 USGP!

Spanish GP: Why F1's Madring debut was so dull + was Lando Norris robbed?
On the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast, presented by Atlassian, Edd Straw is joined on the ground in Madrid by Jon Noble and special guest Diego Mejia to review the first Spanish Grand Prix to be held at the Madring.Kimi Antonelli emerged victorious again, but only with the assistance of a Virtual Safety Car that couldn’t have been more badly timed for Lando Norris. So, was Norris robbed? And with that being one of the only moments of note in a race devoid of overtaking, should F1 already be worried about the Madring?Those questions are tackled, plus there's chat about whether we should give the title to Antonelli now, whether Max Verstappen might have won if he wasn't forced to relinquish a position to Lewis Hamilton early on, and whether this was the best grand prix of Franco Colapinto's career.Presented by AtlassianGet bonus F1 podcasts, extra content and ad-free listening, sign-up to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today.

F1 Rewind: When a young Ayrton Senna drove F1's elite crazy
On the latest episode of The Race F1 Rewind, Edd Straw and Mark Hughes examine the formative years of Ayrton Senna's F1 career, and a time when the Brazilian regularly ruffled the feathers of more established drivers with his scintillating speed and unusual single-mindedness. While his later championship-winning years with McLaren were where his megastardom was cemented, Edd and Mark explain how Senna's three seasons at Lotus (from 1985 to 1987) provided the crucial foundation for his legendary career and set the template for the 'young driver in a hurry' prototype since replicated by modern F1 greats.Get bonus F1 podcasts, extra content and ad-free listening, sign-up to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today.

The guys discuss the circuit's unique characteristics - including its signature banked corner, La Monumental - and how it compares to other venues, past and present. Conor also explains how drivers approach a race at a new circuit, and what they'll be doing as the weekend unfolds to make sure they're extracting maximum speed.Before the Madrid chat, there's also a chance to catch up on Ferrari's driver management conundrum, after Lewis Hamilton complained about the team lacking rules of engagement and needing to fix that after Monza.
