Apologies this was a day later than planned. Safe to say, something came up. – Dre
Dre and RJ sit down to review Formula 1’s Belgian Grand Prix and it was a race heavily affected by rain, and opinions on what to do with said rain. Oscar Piastri won a pretty comfortably wet to dry game of tyre conservation as Lando Norris had to over-drive his McLaren on Hards just to keep it close. But it was an 80-minute delay for rain that had people talking about whether F1 is trying to phase out wet running altogether. But is it more complicated than that, with the tyres, and the spray all being potential factors?
There’s also the small news that Max Verstappen is staying with Red Bull for 2026, with George Russell now suddenly on the brink of signing his own two-year extension with Mercedes for 2027. The pair evaluate the lay of the land and ponder whether Kimi Antonelli might be the man sacrificed instead.
All that, and more including Hamilton’s comeback through the pits, why Pierre Gasly might be the sport’s most under-appreciated driver and more on a brand new M101!
