The Haas Boys: Recent Episodes
Haas Boys Productions
Haas Boys is a podcast for fans of the great Haas F1 team and for anyone wanting a fun perspective on F1 as a whole. Join the Haas Boys as they discuss the best American team in F1, and learn more about the giant world of F1.
Singapore’s lights were bright, but McLaren’s drama somehow shined brighter. In a race that crowned them Constructors’ Champions, the papaya squad couldn’t hide the cracks between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri — a rivalry disguised as “fairness” that’s quickly becoming a masterclass in internal chaos.
This week on The Fast Ones, Max and Mike unpack the so-called Papaya Rules, McLaren’s one-sided culture of “team balance,” and why it’s looking a lot more like favoritism for Lando — the guy not leading the championship. Meanwhile, Max Verstappen reminded everyone he’s not done yet, beating both papayas to keep his title hopes alive (and make George Russell’s win feel that much worse).
We’ll celebrate Haas heroics (Ollie, you legend — two points in Singapore!), question McLaren’s definition of teamwork, and pretend we’ve already forgotten who won the race. Because, let’s be honest, it’s more fun that way.
This week, the paddock stories stretch far beyond Formula 1. Max Verstappen takes his talents to the Nordschleife, winning in the NLS series and edging closer to his GT3 endurance ambitions. Back in F1, rumors swirl about Christian Horner potentially buying into Haas — is it a lifeline or just noise?
We’ll also take a moment to acknowledge Roscoe Hamilton, Lewis’s beloved bulldog and a true icon of the paddock, before turning our attention to what lies ahead under the lights of Singapore. Expect bold predictions, overreactions, and plenty of comedic detours along the way.
The Nürburgring brought trophies, Haas might bring surprises, Singapore will bring chaos — and as always — we’re here for all of it.
The streets of Baku never disappoint — unless you’re a driver who found one of those concrete walls the hard way. This week on The Fast Ones, Max and Mike dive into all the chaos from the Azerbaijan Grand Prix: surprise podiums, strategy misfires, and just enough safety car drama to remind us why Baku has its own brand of street-circuit chaos.
From the sharp end of the title fight to the mid-grid mayhem, we break down who came out ahead, who got humbled, and which drivers are still picking carbon fiber out of their overalls. Expect the usual mix of questionable predictions, comedic detours, and maybe a little roasting — because it wouldn’t be The Fast Ones without it.
Baku gave us walls, wrecks, and wildcards… and we’re here for all of it.
This week on The Fast Ones, we trade the paddock for pit stops of a different kind. Max Verstappen is stepping out of Formula 1 and into endurance racing, working his way toward the license he’ll need to run a GT3 car at the legendary 24 Hours of Nürburgring. We dig into what that means for his legacy, the appeal of sports car racing, and whether the grid’s top drivers might follow him into endurance classics.
Meanwhile, Sergio Pérez is scheduled to throw the first pitch at Dodger Stadium, so we’ll speculate on his form off the track (and on the mound). And of course, we’ll preview one of F1’s wildest circuits as the championship heads to the streets of Baku.
From GT3 to baseball diamonds to concrete canyons, this episode covers a lot of ground — and speed.
Monza delivered chaos, controversy, and heartbreak — in other words, classic Italian Grand Prix. This week on The Fast Ones, Max and Mike are joined by a special guest (and returning host) Parker to break down all the action from the Temple of Speed.
From McLaren’s team orders drama between Norris and Piastri, to Ferrari’s latest misadventures at home, and the podium shakeups that kept the tifosi on edge, we cover it all. Expect strong takes, questionable predictions, and the usual detours into comedy that make this podcast feel less like punditry and more like hanging out with your F1 friends.
The drama at McLaren may have stolen the headlines, but Monza proved once again why it’s the Temple of Speed — and why nothing ever goes quietly in Formula 1.
The Dutch Grand Prix gave us everything: Lando Norris’s McLaren literally went up in smoke, rookie Isack Hadjar scored his first-ever podium, and Haas pulled off a double points finish (yes, really). Add in three safety cars — and for once none of them were Lance Stroll’s fault — and Zandvoort delivered pure chaos.
Max and Mike break down Piastri’s seventh win of the season, Verstappen’s home podium, Ferrari’s spectacular double DNF, and what it all means for the championship picture. Plus: bold takes, a little roasting, and the usual detours you’ve come to expect.
The grid resets, the title fight twists, and the summer break hangover is officially over.
F1 is finally back after the long summer break, and so are we. This week’s live stream gets rolling with a little game: is it a George Russell insult or the name of a bird? (Harder than you think.) From there we dive into the latest silly season chatter, including the rumored Cadillac driver lineup that has us raising eyebrows. And of course, we look ahead to the rest of the season with some bold, probably wrong, predictions.
It’s the return of racing, a reset of the grid, and a reminder that while IndyCar is fun, it just can’t quite fill the Formula 1–shaped hole in our hearts.
With the Formula 1 summer break in full swing, The Fast Ones goes off-script for a laid-back live stream. There’s no set agenda—just Max and Mike talking motorsport (and whatever else comes to mind) while the world’s fastest sport takes a breather. Expect speculation on what to watch for when F1 roars back, driver and team predictions for the second half of the season, and some honest talk about why IndyCar, fun as it is, just doesn’t quite scratch the same itch.
It’s part casual hangout, part motorsport therapy session—perfect for fans needing a fix before lights go out again.
This week on The Fast Ones, Max and Mike dive headfirst into an unexpected but glorious mashup of 80s music nostalgia, steamy racing fiction, and of course, the Hungarian Grand Prix.
The episode opens with an ode to Toto—yes, the band—followed by a deep dive into their hidden connection to Michael Jackson's Thriller, and the math-rock genius of 80s studio bands. From there, things take a sharp turn as Max reveals his "book of the week": Overtake My Heart, a Daniel Ricciardo-themed erotic novel that's somehow both hilarious and unsettling—and might just have been written by the Honey Badger himself.
When the tire smoke clears, the guys break down the Hungarian GP: Lando’s redemption win, Oscar’s quiet dominance, Charles Leclerc’s cryptic radio messages, George Russell’s whiny post-race meltdown, and Aston Martin’s mysterious return to form. There’s also love for Ollie Bearman, speculation about Lewis Hamilton’s future (is he retiring or just dropping merch?), and a passionate defense of Haas—the only F1 team you really need to root for.
It's part racing analysis, part fever dream, and all gas, no brakes.
Max and Mike return to The Fast Ones with a high-octane mix of vintage car nostalgia, race recaps, and motorsport drama. Max reviews the Steve McQueen classic Bullitt for the first time, praising its legendary car chase and effortlessly cool vibes. The duo then dive into NASCAR history with Bubba Wallace's epic Brickyard 400 win—celebrating Bubba's comeback, his playoff qualification, and a personal story involving a Leica camera.
Then, it's all about Spa. From Oscar Piastri’s gritty opening move to Lando Norris’s cautious driving, they break down the wet-and-wild F1 weekend, the sprint drama, and Lewis Hamilton’s fierce critique of Ferrari—plus what it means for the Scuderia’s future. The episode also spotlights Yuki Tsunoda’s surprise performance, Nico Rosberg’s spicy gridwalk burns, and Kimmy Antonelli’s moment with Lewis.
A passionate, hilarious, and insightful ride from start to finish—don't miss it.
After the emergency podcast, Mike and Max took some time to reflect on the legacy of Christian Horner. After about 5 minutes of that, they began fighting about 80's pop culture again. Aside from all that, it's RACE WEEK. We'll take a look at what to expect from the upcoming race, talk predictions, and find some way to roast George Russell.
Mike and Max decided that an emergency live broadcast was in order following the news that Red Bull team boss, Christian Horner, was fired with immediate effect. Somehow they found a way to tie it to some 80's film and digress into an argument over which power ballad would be best suited for this moment.
Mike and Max take this opportunity to honor their fellow Haas Boy, Nico Hulkenberg. They'll then spend some time roasting other drivers, inevitably fighting over 80's power ballads, and then last - but certainly not least - Henry "The Haas Chap" Wallace reports from his weekend at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

Call it a Haas Boys Reunion as Parker rejoins the pod to give us a much needed mid-season recap. We talk Zandvoort, Lando's 22 second margin of victory, and the slow demise of the teams around them. As to be expected, we got more than we bargained for in this episode.
