Descripción

Josh and Sam recap everything from the Australian Grand Prix weekend starting with George Russell's win as we question if it's his year, if Mercedes are the clear favorites, if Ferrari are in striking distance, and if Ferrari had another strategy disasterclass? Next, we give our thoughts on the new regulations and tackle the biggest issue with the current cars, super clipping, and what F1 needs to do to make the car more enjoyable for drivers and fans. We also break down the early midfield battle before discussing Cadillac's first race, what realistic expectations are, and what would be considered a successful season in Abu Dhabi? Finally, we give our personal podiums and stinker of the week (or offseason in this case) to wrap up the Australian Grand Prix. Thanks for listening!
