- Lost its way
This used to be an excellent podcast. But the current 8 part series with Rosamund Pike has lost the plot. She’s a good actress, but in this podcast overdramatises every sentence and word, it’s really irritating. Can we please get back to your regular presenters who know how to do a radio podcast.

New Zealand2 months ago - Unacceptable into length
Back At Base S3 E1. Nearly 5:35 minutes in and the podcast is still in intro! This back at base stuff is shallow & condescending. If this is for the new wave of fans, they deserve better.
Apple Podcasts1TheArtfulBadgerUnited Kingdom2 months ago - favourite F1 pod
My favourite F1 pod for quite a while now. I love the different characters and that they are given the chance to present their different views and opinions on the pod. And I think it‘s great that there is room for some fun and jokes but still keeping it professional.

Germany3 months ago - Ok but glaringly obvious British Bias
This podcast is informative at best, but very negative towards any other non-British drivers, some hosts are exceedingly negative as well.
