Escuchar Paddock 43: An F1 Podcast

This week on Paddock 43, we’re unpacking all the chaos from the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix — and trust us, there’s plenty to talk about. From a lap 1 disaster between Gasly and Yuki, to a quietly brilliant drive from Oscar Piastri (yep, we’re still screaming), this race gave us drama and redemption. Ferrari fans, it’s your time to shine — we see you. And Max? Well, let’s just say he wasn’t exactly popping bottles on the podium either. Off-track, the F1 news cycle is delivering as always: Contract rumours swirl around Aston Martin and Max Verstappen, Carlos Sainz lands a fresh ambassadorship deal, and the internet loses its mind over those steamy Totto Wolff pics. Plus: George Russell’s new wheels, and an important update on everyone’s favourite paddock pup, Roscoe. We’ve also got Antonelli and Hadjar hype and a little reminder that Oscar’s finish marks the best result for an Aussie since Mark Webber's infamous 2010 Korea crash. Buckle up — this one’s fast, fiery, and full of F1 gossip you won’t want to miss. 🎧 Available now wherever you get your podcasts. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
