Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 81 ratings
  • Best

    One of the hosts is suspiciously misinformed about football (soccer) but one thing certain is that they are absolutely informed about F1 while also being funny and authentic. An absolute must listen for any petrolhead.

  • Excellent weekly F1 conversation

    Pitched perfectly from the fan’s angle with info, discussion and some humorous ranting that those involved deeply in F1 coverage can’t supply. A great F1 conversation to start each week. Thanks chaps.
