THE F1 CHICKANES

From Miami Heat to Marmots on the Street

We intended to do a standard F1 episode recapping Miami, covering the mid-break updates, and looking ahead to Canada. Instead, we went down a rabbit hole of random tangents, mostly debating the merits of Canadian bacon and the local track-side wildlife. Come for the racing updates, stay for the marmots.

Baklava in Miami ft. Amazon Alexa

This episode is basically our monthly F1 chaos recap. We catch up on everything that’s happened over the past few weeks — from the new 2026 tech regulations to the latest relationship drama around Lewis Hamilton (yes, we had to talk about it again) and some very questionable paddock gossip coming out of Italy. We also preview the Miami Grand Prix, what to watch for this weekend, and check in on our F1 fantasy teams (with mixed levels of confidence). Plus, our new quiz segment featuring the Reserve Driver, and somehow Amazon Alexa becomes part of the episode as we keep asking her completely necessary questions. If you’re here for race previews, off-track drama, random tangents, and a little bit of chaos, this one’s for you.

Going Bazooka For Suzuka

This week we’re recapping the Chinese Grand Prix and everything that went down, from the chaos on track to what it means for the championship already. We also talk about the big news with Jonathan Wheatley leaving Audi F1 Team, what’s actually going on with Williams Racing right now, and which teams look stronger than expected. We also preview the Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka Circuit, talk about which drivers could dominate there, and share our latest F1 fantasy team thoughts.

Rookies, Wrecks, and a Mercedes Takeover

The 2026 F1 season kicked off with chaos in Australia, so we’re breaking it all down. We talk about George Russell’s win and Mercedes’ big 1-2, rookie surprises, crashes, and everything that made the first race of the season wild. We also preview the Chinese Grand Prix sprint weekend, share some fun facts about the Shanghai track, and give our thoughts on the latest season of Drive to Survive.

New Cars, New Chaos

The 2026 Formula 1 season kicks off with a full reset. Smaller cars, new regulations, and big expectations. We’re unpacking preseason testing, championship favorites, and the storylines to watch in Australia. And yes, we cover the Lewis Hamilton and Kim Kardashian rumors and give a full update on our very serious Drive to Survive watch party snack strategy (featuring an unreasonable number of dips).
