About this episode
Meg and Spanners are back to discuss the Brazilian Grand Prix, starting with Verstappen’s exceptional performance in all of the various weather conditions (06:21). They break down the aborted start at the beginning of the race (24:55) in addition to the many infringements and penalties the stewards have to review (30:09). Next, they celebrate a huge race week for Alpine, finishing second and third (35:05) and discuss Tsunoda’s performance with RB (43:31). Finally, they share their thoughts on Formula One's more cautious regulations (48:34), the qualifying races (55:22), and McLaren nearly ruining the sprint race (65:11).
