Fan Frenzy is the episode where the fans take control of the conversation.

It's all but over. A statement made, a drive for the ages and Max now has 1 hand on the title. Fumbles galore, as Mclaren and Norris had it all in their laps, but couldn't get it done. Was it ever as on as we thought or a bridge too far. Alpine, the feel-good moment of the year, a joyous post-race, a podium worthy of a movie and two drivers who kep…

2 of 3 in the Merica' triple header and boy oh boy were the elbows out. A Sainz win was one to savour as Norris too a big chunk of points to close the title race again. What a load of bull! Fans and driver were left seething after Redbull got their elbows out, first Max, then Perez. A revised FIA interpretation and with a total of 20sec in penaltie…

Welcome back, well of sorts, we had a month off and we have returned with a belter of a weekend as we said yeeehaw to Austin Texas. The healing process for Ricciardo fans has passed and Lawson has put to bed an doubts for now, a last to 9th drive silenced any haters for the time being. Max took the bull by the horns and drove a solid weekend. Was t…

Fan Frenzy, the pod where the fans conrol the conversation.

Norris swings the tide in Singapore but with the deficit to Max only 1 point less than it was in Miami, is he running out of time? Six to go, we have been hearing for weeks that the title fight us on, but, for how much longer. A mega save from Verstappen salvaged P2 and for the remaining rounds thats all he needs. Is there time for Norris to get th…

Two #1s are better than none. Team Mclaren are flying and we suddenly have a possible four way title fight. Oscar is no mug, after a barrage of Brit beat downs last week, the Aussie shon in the Azerbaijan sun, hard to believe he has been at it for just on 18 months. The top scorer over the past 8 rounds, finished 100% of his races, make no mistake …

Fan Frenzy the Pod where the fans run the conversation.

The prince of Monaco becomes the King of Monza, a one stop for the ages, how can you not love a Ferrari win at home. Leclerc drove for the masses, a one stop roll of the dice that crowned him the king on Monza once again, a giant upgrade package and maybe, just maybe another twist in the tail of 2024. Williams, did good. Well kind of, points for Al…

SUMMER BREAK IS OVER....and sudden changing of the guard, a 22sec demolition for Lando and it is well and truly game on. Williams have pulled the pin on Sargeant, after a monster shunt, was this the right or wrong call so late in the season? The eb and flow at the front continued, as Ferrari pranced and Mercedes faltered, howereve with this the new…

DISQUALIFIED. Not the words Russell wanted to hear. But 1.5kg short....does someone have questions to answer? Sainz signs on with Williams, after months in waiting, what do you make of the decision? It was a dirty day for Norris, Oscar backed it up with a brilliant showing, who's driving better right now and is there a possible headache on the hori…

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! Ah the boy did good, it's been cooking but finally the oven has pinged and Piastri comes home P1. Radio ga ga was the talk of the day, and it exposed another chink in the McLaren armour. How much, if any damage has been done by the weekends events? Perez in the wall, a Q1 exit and a Ricciardo P1, pit your money on the line, …

The race of the season. Make no mistake, if Lewis isn't the greatest of all time, he is now. What have Haas been cooking? The 5th fastest car on the grid now, Hulk doing incredible things, Audi would be licking their lips securing his services, how much longer can they sustain it though? Is Checo checking out? With only 12pts in the past 5 rounds a…

A dynamite quali, Norris on pole, a lead stolen by Russell but yet again, Verstappen takes the win. It's a four way fight as we turn for Austria. With the Redbull no longer a dominating force, there is much to look forward to. Who will be our next race winner? A turn of fortune for Alpine after a huge week off track and the return of Flav, but Asto…

The race of the season thus far, 5 in contention, a nee pole sitter for the year, rain, action a plenty and yet it was the cool head of Verstappen who did it again. From hero to 0 as Ferrari not only dropped the ball, but tore it up, set it on fire and threw it into the deepest of ocean waters. An opportunity to put more pressure on the Bulls goes …

2024 is the year for curses to be broken. The season is on, 4 from 8 in terms of race winners, will we see another, and if so who and where? After years of trying Charles has finally broken the duck, this will very much go down as one of the wins of the year. And trouble is afoot at Alpine. Ocon into a team mate is nothing new, but a scorching asse…

It was uncomfortable, but it was job done again for Verstappen, a setup change and a tow from Hulkenberg denied a possible Piastri win. With Monaco up next are we set for another upset on the cards? The Ferrari upgrade promised big things but after a solid practice failed to deliver, give it time, the red machines are about to explode. An 11th hour…

The 0 had to go, finally Lando Norris is a race winner. McLaren are on a charge, and although the result for 81 didn't reflect the weekend make no mistake, we have a challenger ready and waiting. Will it be Oscars win next time round? A RB resurgence saw 4th for Dan in the sprint and 7th for Yuki in the race, finally getting to grips with the chass…

Round 5 and a return to China after years in the wilderness. The rain came down, the old guard showed that experience counts and once again, Max came, saw and conquered. A savage Ricciardo was seething after a Stroll slip, as animated as ever, and not his usual all smiles self. We have to ask the question of Aston once again, is this the pairing to…

We went drifting in Suzuka as the Honda's were on show again in the RB20. A 1-2 and 636 days since anyone but Max led the championship. Yuki mania is here, in his fourth year, it is all staring to come together. Leading up the RB challenge and points at home. Is he a potential RedBull suitor? Disaster strikes Williams again. Another chassis in the …

The run is officially over. A brake issue, a roar from the crowd and it was game on in the land down under. Red season is officially here. The inhouse ops are under control, the pit wall is calm, and the race results are coming. But Sainz is paying the price and is without a drive still... if you were running Ferrari, are you keeping or sacking Sai…

Two from two as the Verstappen victory lap rolls on, when will it end? What has happened at RB? Were we duped by the excitement of a potential RB19 in a new coat of paint? There needs to be answers and soon or this could be Ricciardo’s swan song. Has Haas played an ace in the dumping of Steiner? A race hardened performance, a value point and two dr…

Round one has been run and won, and it's Max who extends his winning ways in Bahrain. It's a tail of two grids, RB, Alpine, Haas, Williams and Sauber look to occupy the back half. But can they break into the top 10 and sneak any points in season 2024? Is Lewis lost? A lonely 7th place for the 7 time champion had many scratching their heads a George…

Just 24hrs to go as the race for the 2024 title is on. A hectic four days of testing has many pundits scratching their heads as to what the pecking order will be. Are McLaren sandbagging? Will the Aston rise or fall? Are Mercedes on the charge? By the end of FP3 we will start to get a glimpse. A new concept at Alpine has their drivers on the back f…

If 2024 had already been off to a frenetic start then the F1 world just went and threw up on itself once again. Lewis has left the building, yes the main man at Mercedes is fulfilling a life long dream and has joined Ferrari for 2025. If he can bring a title home then there is no denying his legacy, he will be the greatest of all time. Controversy …

2023 comes to an end and what a season it was. A dominate Max and a chassis for the history books. Records were smashed this year, but without the bump in the road that was Singapore how many may Max have won on the bounce? Yuki saved his best til last, agonisingly close to the needed 7th place finish, is this the turning point in the soon to be na…

0.053 one of the finest margins to one of the finest weekends for a long time. Did you know, Max could have stopped racing in July and still lead the title. Is the pack closing? Hard to believe that could be the case but it seems Max has some speed in hand, who will contend in 2024? Aston abandoned all hope and came home with an epic 3rd. Are be ju…

Triple treat for the ages. It was Maximum Verstappen at Qatar, with a third crown. The sky is the limit for Max, how many title will his career end in? That Aussie boy has speed. Piastri takes a maiden F1 win, with a sprint pole and victory, but you have to feel for Lando watching both Australians take a win. When will it be Landos turn? Stroll thr…

Normal service has resumed with a Verstappen win and a 6th Constructor title sewn up. A sprint to decide the title and that's season 2023 in the books. Of 2nd is all that is needed, a DNF is not. A shocker from Perez puts him back under the pump. With 3 replacements waiting in the wings, the time to deliver is now. 17th and 20th at the season opene…

The Rebull streak comes to an end as the Spanish meistro completes a smooth operation in Singapore. Ferrari are back....or so it seems. An end of season resurgence has the Tifosi licking their lips, the base like for 2024 looks promising, so can we expect a strong running in the land of the rising sun. If they handed out prizes for negative gearing…
