Bahrain Grand Prix Show Notes, March 5

WOW! What a start to the 2023 season of Formula 1! There was so much to check out this weekend. From Stroll struggling to get out of his car to Aston Martin thriving in the race, all eyes were either on green or green with envy! The only thing noteworthy about Mercedes was how poorly they did. The pain was also evident for Mclaren and Ferrari. Maybe no one was suffering as much as Esteban Ocon, though! Who was your Driver of the Day?

Have a listen wherever you get your podcasts or watch our goofy faces react to race weekend on YouTube.

Show Notes
Formula 1 drivers are not actors, as these commercials will show. Though interviews and PR are generally part of their contract requirements, doing TV ad campaigns for products might not be the first thing you think of when it comes to seeing F1 drivers in the public eye. The good sports we discuss in this podcast - Jenson Button, Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton, Giancarlo Fisichella, Kimi Raikkonen, and Mark Webber - are just a sampling of some of the racing drivers you can find pitching products. What are your favourite F1 driver ad spots?
