  • Great race review but there is an audio issue

    The latest pod...race review of COTA only plays in mono ie the left speaker. This has happened on a few of the last pods as well. Please record/post the pod in stereo.

  • Brilliant preview and race weekend roundup. Please keep the content quality up. Many big podcasts are releasing too many filler episodes these days - don't do the same Chequered Flag!

  • British podcasts for British drivers

    Very good at making excuses for British drivers and making the not British drivers/teams the bad guy. Not really journalism. Please listen to how you talk about the non British drivers and how when you interview different drivers you treat them differently.
