The adventures of FRO-zone and ANT-boy - F1 Canada and Indy 500

This week we cover an extraordinary weekend of motorsport with F1, F2, and F1 Academy in Canada and the 110th running of the Indianapolis 500. In F1, we finally get to see the silver arrows version of Papaya Rules, aka Mercedes Manners, play out, as Antonelli and Russell clash on track. In F2, Rodin come good as Dunne and Horny show their pace, and in F1A, Palmowski shows why she is the favorite to win the championship this year. Last, but certainly not least, we recap an incredible Indy 500 which delivered all the hits: big crashes, weather delays, and an epic finish.

Hero to Zero to Hero to Zero - Formula E Monaco and Indy500 Quali

This week we cover the Formula E races in Monaco and the qualifying for the 110th running of the Indianapolis 500. We got to watch Cupra Kiro learning strategy in real-time as they attempted to capitalise on Dan Ticktum’s strong qualifying performance. Felix Rosenqvist was unexpectedly strong In the Indy 500 qualifying, while in the 24hrs of Nurburgring, Max Verstappen was expectedly strong. However the most surprising event of the weekend was a double points finish for Lola Yamaha.  Music provided by Sascha Ende under the CC BY 4.0 license: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license [https://filmmusic.io/standard-license] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Full Course Mellow - Indycar Indy GP

This week we cover the Indy GP on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Road Course. An exciting race was shaken up by the brazen disregard for safety shown by Race Control who preferred to save the leaders pit strategy than save a stranded Rossi. We also ask if mandatory paternal leave should be enforced in Indycar as new father Rosenqvist causes a pile up, and whether Andretti screwing up a pitstop constitutes a spoiler or not. We also stop by WEC in Spa to see some BMW domination.  Music provided by Sascha Ende under the CC BY 4.0 license: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Mitch,Miami,Moon,Mini,Mueller,Mermaids,Mercedes - F1 Miami FE Berlin

This week F1 returned after its long 5 week hiatus with the Miami GP, and it was a good weekend for Mercedes as Kimi Antonelli made F1 history and the Mercedes engine proved its dominance. McLaren, Ferrari, and Red Bull all brought upgrades to Miami which improved the competition, which gives us some hope for the championship, at least until Mercedes bring their upgrades at the next race in Canada. F2 held its first race in North America and didn’t disappoint, while Berlin hosted 2 Formula E races. Sadly, both of these were of the energy-saving variety, but were still plenty of fun to watch as Ollie Rowland got his championship defense back on course.  Music provided by Sascha Ende under the CC BY 4.0 license: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license [https://filmmusic.io/standard-license] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Safety (Car) Ladder - FREC Red Bull Ring, GB3 Silverstone

This week we cover the season-opening races in FREC and GB3 and use this as an excuse to do a deep dive into the whole F1 feeder series ladder, from F2 down to F4. We dig into the main contenders in a few of these series as we review what’s happened in FREC, GB3, GB4, IndyNXT and F3 so far this season, which is mainly safety cars and red flags, but the main takeaway is that it’s a good year to be called Nikita or Nakamura.  Music provided by Sascha Ende under the CC BY 4.0 license: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
