  • Racist and backwards thinking

    Three white people - sometimes men and women come together to spout outdated opinions and there’s always one older person per episode that is outwardly racist. F1 could be so much better than this lot.

  • Lewis show. How bitter can those guys be :(

F1 Fireside - A Chat With Stuart Codling | Grid Talk Formula 1 Podcast
Q: What do you think you would be writing about the 2025 McLaren if you were still writing this book in a year's time?
I think the car will be quite definitive, as teams will have to pivot towards developing the 2026 car relatively early in the season.
F1 Fireside - A Chat With Stuart Codling | Grid Talk Formula 1 Podcast
