The Fast And The Curious: Recent Episodes
Greg James
From presenter and podcast host Greg James comes a brand new Formula 1 podcast,
'The Fast And The Curious’.
Team Principal Greg has signed up sports presenter Betty Glover, broadcast journalist and lifelong F1 fanatic Christian Hewgill and a rolling cast of some of the biggest (and fastest) drivers in the world. It’s a podcast for die-hard fans as well as those who are curious to find out more about this fascinating world and the characters that inhabit it.
As well as unparalleled access to the drivers on and off the grid, The Fast And The Curious will take you behind the scenes showing you what Formula 1 is really all about. More than just a motoring podcast, The Fast And The Curious promises to entertain while also giving the drivers a chance to speak directly to their fans in a totally new way. There are plenty of podcasts critiquing every corner and missed overtake, so instead we’ll be aiming to find as much fun in the sport as possible with our driver co-hosts feeling like it’s their show too as we catch up across the season.
Whether it's George Russell telling us there’s an F1 driver WhatsApp group, hearing about Logan Sergeant's search for a half-decent burger outside the US, or even learning that Mercedes Team Principal, Toto Wolff, is best friends with Pep Guardiola, we’ll not only bring you the latest news and gossip from each race, we’ll also be putting the fans first and asking the questions they’ve always wanted to know the answers to.
We want this podcast to be a space for everyone. And that means covering more than just race results. From Lewis Hamilton telling us why he’s such a vocal advocate for change in the sport and society as a whole to hearing from some of the talented women working in the historically male-dominated team garages, The Fast And The Curious will delve into issues facing Formula 1 on and off track.
F1’s fast, and we're curious. And really excited. See you on the grid...or wherever you get your podcasts from.
This week we welcome actor and fan of all things fast on four wheels Nicholas Hoult to discuss his experiences in the racing world.
From training with Ferrari and his Grand Prix trips to fan interactions at traffic lights and climb out of a (minor) crash dressed as a Spice Girl he's got a pretty great driving CV to go through with Greg, Betty and Christian.

The full squad are back and joined by a BRAND NEW driver co-host! Chloe Grant will be launching her F1 Academy campaign with ART Grand Prix in Austria this weekend, and tells us all about her journey so far before the series gets going. She's also joined by her mum Sharon who gives us the honest answer of how Chloe reacted to being asked to join the championship.
There's also time for a round-up of F1 gossip before the season gets underway again, which of course feature Lewis Hamilton's interesting disguise and Fernando Alonso dating rumours. There's also a round of listener questions and a preview of the Azerbaijan grand prix in Baku (bless you).

George Russell (aka Curious George as he like to call himself on the podcast) is back for a catch-up with Betty and Christian during the early break in the season.
He fills us in on everything he's been up to during his down time including meeting Novak Djokovic and checking in with the rest of the Mercedes team to plot out their return to racing in Baku.
There's also some listener questions that give us an insight into George's singing ability and having meals cooked by Alex Albon's mum. Plus, anyone who listened to our recent episode with Oscar Piastri will know the Australian rookie had tee'd up a pretty good story about how Oscar and George first met. We can promise you it doesn't disappoint.

What the HELL just happened? With Betty on other sporting duties, Greg and Christian try to make sense of the Melbourne mayhem.
From red flags and listener questions, to fireballs, drunken listener voice notes and a review from our Melbourne correspondent they cover some serious ground.

This week Greg, Christian and Betty look ahead to the third race of the season in Australia with listener questions, some pretty bold predictions and Team Principle James keeps his drivers in check with an Australian geography lesson from new friends of the show F1,2,3,4.
Along the way Betty plots to get her F1 simulator revenge, Christian is beaten (!!) by some teen Formula One fans and there's serious office chair delivery drama, obviously.

Christian and Betty head to Williams HQ to spend the day with co-host Logan Sargeant.
As well as answering listener questions and reliving his first moments as an F1 driver, Logan sets up a Fast And The Curious challenge on the Williams sim to let Christian and Betty really get to know the Australian grand prix circuit before the third race of the season.
There's also a surprise lined up for Logan in the form of the UK's best burger chef following the frankly worrying amount of messages we had sent in after the American driver claimed to be struggling to find a decent burger in England on episode one of the podcast.

Following the Saudi grand prix, Betty, Greg and Christian have a debrief of the second race of the season to make sense of the action and cover breaking Formula One news.
They discuss Red Bull dominance, how the dark arts* of Formula One could stop them storming the championship and cover the news of Fernando Alonso losing his place on the podium.

As we head into race week two we hear from Alex Albon about how the Williams camp can make the most us picking up a point in Bahrain. There's also of course time for Betty and Christian to discuss Alex having THIRTEEN cats, how his professional golf playing thinks he's "uncoachable" on the course and the potential for George Russell's topless picture franchise.
Team Principal Greg is back with a "game" (we use that term lightly) to test Christian's knowledge, we go through some listener questions and Betty makes some incredible admissions about her driving skills as the team look to set up a Fast and Curious team race.

A bumper crop for you this time around. After Team Principal Greg sets out the plans for the episode Betty and Christian get to work with a Bahrain debrief with Alpine's French driver Pierre Gasly. But of course it's not strictly F1 chat, from learning English slang terms to his bath routine they cover some serious ground.
Later in the show Christian heads to Mclaren's "space ship" headquarters for a check-in with Lando Norris... and to get more gossip about the F1 driver WhatsApp group.
We're also joined by listener Ellie to break down her first experience of watching a Formula One race and give her the chance to pick Christian's brains. And keep an ear out towards the end of the episode to find out if your question gets answered by the team.

There's also time for Christian to tee you up with everything you need to know for race week one(!) and the team surprise a listener with the chance to interview their favourite driver.
