Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1897435/fan_mail/new] The F1 rumor mill is completely off the rails. This week on a special "In the News" edition of In the Paddock, Greeny and Cheese dive into the biggest off-track storylines dominating the sport. Are the new 2026 F1 cars already a failure? The FIA hits the panic button, announcing a sudden shift to a 60/40 combustion-to-battery split for 2027 to prevent the sport from turning into "Mario Kart." Plus, the wildest driver market rumor of the year: Is Max Verstappen seriously eyeing George Russell’s seat at Mercedes if Red Bull can't deliver a title-contending car? Finally, Cheese goes scorched-earth on Ferrari. After bringing 11 highly anticipated upgrades to Miami with absolutely nothing to show for it, we ask the hard question: Does Maranello need to fire the pit wall and bring in a culture-shifter like Christian Horner? On Today's Fast Lap: * (01:30) F1 Engine Panic: Why the FIA is suddenly changing the rules for 2027. * (06:45) Driver Market: Max Verstappen to Mercedes to replace George Russell? * (10:15) Ferrari's Miami Disaster: 11 failed upgrades and the broken culture in Maranello. The Global Grandstand Roll Call: A massive thank you to the listeners checking in from all over the world this week!
