About this episode
Meg and Spanners are back to break down the dramatic Hungarian Grand Prix! First, they must talk about potentially the best radio day in Formula One history with McClaren’s feud between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri (14:37). They discuss the what if’s of the race had Norris followed team instructions earlier (14:37), as well as an awkward post-race and cool down room celebrating Piastri’s victory (18:10). They talk about Verstappen’s childlike arguments on the radio after he was up late sim racing (24:16) and their thoughts on the Red Bull strategy (28:58). They discuss the Verstappen interview that has since been taken down on Red Bulletin, as it was poorly timed after his crash with Hamilton (39:10), and a dismal future for Sergio Perez on Red Bull (45:16). Finally, they talk about the announcement that Magnussen will not be on Haas next year (51:47) and the Williams rumor that they will get rid of Sargeant for Ocon (54:56).
