Ep #514: Max Verstappen’s villain to hero arc should be studied

The GIST of It

About this episode

Vroom, vroom.

The 2025 Formula 1 season is coming down to the wire: After an uncharacteristically slow start, Red Bull’s Max Verstappen has stormed back and is threatening to derail McLaren’s World Drivers’ Championship dreams. Is Verstappen’s stunning season the best comeback in F1 history — and would a fifth straight title make him the racing world’s GOAT? Co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz debate on today’s episode of The GIST of It.
