Todd
This Formula 1 podcast episode breaks down Liberty Media’s Q2 financial results, the FIA’s 2026 rules debate, and the latest Alpine valuation talk. It’s a sharp, entertaining look at the business side of F1, from sprint races and team payments to the politics shaping the sport’s future. With Todd and Grace bringing equal parts skepticism and insight, the discussion reveals why the numbers behind Formula 1 matter just as much as the racing itself.

Norris ended Mercedes' grip on Saturdays and won the Hungarian Grand Prix, but the real story was the blue flag system that failed on lap nine and quietly decided the outcome. Episode 1,000 breaks down how McLaren's development gamble paid off, why Ferrari wasted its best chance of the season, and what the FIA owes an explanation for before Zandvoort.

* "If you're a McLaren or you're Oscar fan, you should be like, that's pretty, pretty, pretty good shit right there."
* "If Alonzo was in a McLaren now, a Ferrari now, Mercedes, he'd be in amongst it."

Takeaways
* The controversy surrounding Christian Horner and Red Bull has generated a lot of speculation, but it's important to wait for more information before jumping to conclusions.
* The tweaked sprint race weekend regulations, which allow teams to make adjustments after the sprint race, are a step in the right direction, but some fans still prefer the elimination of the sprint race altogether.
* The car launches have showcased a lot of raw carbon fiber and matte finishes, but Todd and Grace would like to see more vibrant colors and painted cars on the grid.
* It's important for teams to have effective crisis PR management strategies in place to address allegations and control the narrative. The absence of a yellow team in Formula 1 sparks curiosity and nostalgia for Renault's black and yellow livery.
* Speculation about Lewis Hamilton's replacement at Mercedes raises questions about the team's long-term strategy and the potential for a junior driver to be chosen.
* The 10-year deal between Silverstone and F1 ensures the British Grand Prix remains a staple on the calendar.
* The recent departures at the FIA raise concerns about the organization's stability and future.
* The MotoGP series 'There Can Only Be One' and the MotoPod podcast are recommended for motorsport enthusiasts.

Join me as I interview two incredibly talented young women who happen to be the drivers of the #26 Heart of Racing Aston Martin Vantage in the GT4 SRO series! Hannah Grisham and Rianna O'Meara-Hunt are two wonderful drivers and it was a real honor to get some of their time to dive into their story.
They were part of a driver search that included over 100 applicants and ended in a 9-driver shootout. Hannah and Rianna were the two selected and it's a terrific story of how they became race car drivers. I think you'll enjoy hearing from Hannah and Rianna about their journey into racing and what it's like to drive a GT4 car as well as work with Paul Charsley. :)
