  • Good but could be better

    This is a great a podcast but it does have Scott Mitchell who is just ruining it. It still is a brilliant podcast that is very informative.

  • Don’t Waste Your Time

    It’s really hard to listen to this Scott Mitchell-Malm. What a pretentious dunderhead. Very little insight into anything but he sure loves to hear himself talk nonsense. The other guys are fine but he really spoils the show

    for me.

  • Grinding negativity

    I’ve been an F1 fan since 1991, so not part of the Netflix generation. I’ve found the negativity in this podcast towards the new rules breathtaking though. The second part of the season preview was a hard listen, and completely flattened my enthusiasm for the new season. They’ll be scathing, then say they’re just calling it as they see it but will judge after some time, and then there’ll be YouTube videos published on the Race channel calling the regs a failure, disaster, etc. Where was all this... more

  • Cheer up boys!

    The Race podcast has become a very pessimistic listen. The episode published on 25th March 26 is an hour and a quarter of the same thing being said by three men. We are only two races in and it’s like F1 has been ruined forever and we will never see a decent qualifying session again. They keep referring to the F1 fanbase in polarising terms. Not all old timers want to go back to the good old days. Not all newcomers want shallow entertainment. It is also very obvious that the overarching op... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Tech Show: Why Honda's F1 engine fix is so difficult
Q: Why are teams not allowed to charge the batteries in the paddock or on the starting grid to eliminate energy harvesting issues during warm-up laps?
Regulations require the four-megajoule battery pack to recharge itself during operation, with limited time at full power; changing where charging can occur would require a multi-party regulatory decision and could create new imbalances depending on team design choices.
Bring Back V10s: Jaguar's nightmare debut season
Q: When you think back to Jaguar in 2000, what's the first thing that comes to mind?
Gary emphasizes the enormous gap between ambition and reality, noting the pressure, the high expectations, and the complex mix of technical hurdles, leadership changes, and budget constraints that defined a notoriously challenging year.
Tech Show: Where can F1 make improvements to the new formula?
Q: What is the first thing you would tackle in potential changes to the start?
Start-line stalls and very slow off-the-line starts are the primary issue; fixing this would improve race flow without compromising the broader concept of the energy regime.
Race wins or a title charge? How high will Ferrari fly in 2026?
Q: Should Mercedes be considered title favorites given early results and upcoming regulation changes?
Mercedes are described as very strong favourites, but the dynamic nature of development and regulation changes means the outcome remains uncertain and dependent on ongoing upgrades and strategic decisions.
Race wins or a title charge? How high will Ferrari fly in 2026?
Q: Is there enough evidence so far to suggest that Ferrari have the best chassis? Could we see the Ferrari potentially being the car to beat at tracks such as Hungary?
The panel argues that while Ferrari shows strong potential and a solid chassis, definitive evidence is hard to establish early in the season due to qualifying and engine development complexities; there is hope that Ferrari could lead at certain circuits if development and circumstances align.
