  • Podcast let down by arrogant bias

    Love ringer podcasts and love f1, spanners turns a great podcast into a terrible one with inconsistent standards for British vs non British bias and dismissal of ‘other pundits’ positions without justifying good own or explaining his position.

    For the ‘expert’ on the podcast he has clear lack of technical knowledge, race craft or tracks. Everything else besides spanners is great though

  • Unserious and Biased

    If you like Ferrari bashing, this is the show for you, because that is 80% of what they do. if you didn’t know that Ferrari (at this moment) is in second place in the Constructor’s, you would think they were in last place. LeClerc is terrible (even when he performs well). Hamilton however, can do no wrong. Megan just goes along with whatever “spanners” says. It would be a better show if she at least offered some counterpoints. If you want a serious F1 show, keep looking.

  • The bias has killed the pod

    Meg is very unbiased, but I cannot with the whinging from Spanners anymore. It can be fun to have journalists who have favorites. But when you’re so blinded with hatred for certain drivers that everything is an unabashed overreaction, it stops being entertaining. Everything is so intense and if it’s not how he sees things, it’s wrong. If it’s not his drivers, his British, his opinion, it’s wrong. Despite Meg trying to rein it in, it’s become tiring and I’m sad to say I’m done.

  • My favorite F1 podcast

    A podcast with two Spanners would be a bit too hyper. A podcast with two Megs would be a bit too chill. But Spanners and Meg together? An absolute DELIGHT. This was the first podcast I started listening to when I started getting into F1. I’ve subscribed to about 20 others since then but this one will always be my favorite - it’s funny and fascinating and a great jumping in point if you’re a beginner. When we had all those cancelled races in April I was 80% sad about no F1 and 20% sad about no Ri... more

  • Enough

    Good podcast, but for Gods sake stop the whining about Monaco. It’s not going anywhere and we all know what to expect going there. F1 isn’t F1 without it, and there are many other processional tracks that are far less interesting. It’s still spectacular to look at and has more history than at least 20 of the other ones combined. Your complaining is more boring than the race itself. Save it for somewhere like Barcelona which is always dreadful and has no excuses for being so.

Reviewing the 2026 Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia
Q: How did tire choices influence the race outcome?
Tire choices were pivotal; inters versus slicks created dramatic position shifts early, with some teams second-guessing mid-race and Lewis Hamilton benefiting from a late, well-timed tire switch that helped him climb back to a podium.
Reviewing the 2026 Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia
Q: What caused the lengthy delays and what was the impact on strategy?
