So the rumors seem to be true?? It looks like Adrian Newey plans to leave Red Bull?! This means there is an emergency bonus episode of Grid Walk because Briana and Nicole could not wait until next week to talk about it!
Enough reputable sources are talking about Adrian Newey’s decision to leave Red Bull to believe it to be true. Briana and Nicole share their initial reaction and thoughts. What are the potential timelines for Newey’s departure from Red Bull and the reasons behind it? What F1 team can we expect Newey to join next and why should it obviously be Ferrari with Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc?
While Briana and Nicole are chatting they obviously need to discuss the news of Nico Hülkenberg signing with Stake F1 Team? Will this cause a domino effect on the F1 grid? What does this mean for Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu? Is this putting pressure on Carlos Sainz?
F1 Academy has announced American Express as a sponsor for driver Jessica Edgar! Now every F1 Academy driver has the support of a major sponsor or F1 team. American Express also announced an incredible initiative starting at the Miami Grand Prix. What are the implications of this announcement and what can we take away from how F1 Academy has handled their partnerships?

F1 heads to race in Suzuka for the Japanese Grand Prix! This time in April! Briana and Nicole go on a Grid Walk to talk about all things happening on and off track this week in the world of Formula 1.
It was announced that Liberty Media is purchasing Moto GP thus expanding their involvement in the world of motorsports! Will Liberty Media follow a similar strategy with Moto GP that they did with Formula 1? Why are some fans upset about the news?
Lewis Hamilton sits down with GQ and definitely delivers! What makes Lewis Hamilton interviews different from other driver interviews? What was the one thing Lewis requested before agreeing to be featured in Fortnite?
In attempts to have the calendar make more sense, F1 has moved the Japan GP to April for the 2024 season! Will rain affect racing in Suzuka this weekend? Briana and Nicole share their predictions for the Japan GP! Will Ferrari remain the second team to Red Bull?
Briana and Nicole feel like broken records when it comes to the second seat at Red Bull. After the Australian Grand Prix, it is hard to believe that Sergio Perez will keep his seat. The big question is which driver would Red Bull replace him with? Will Red Bull ever consider Yuki Tsunoda? Will Liam Lawson get the seat before Daniel Ricciardo?

After the Australian Grand Prix the F1 2024 season has a new race winner! Ferrari had taken a 1-2 finish downunder! Grid Walk is here to cover all the events that took place in Melbourne.
*Trigger Warning: Briana and Nicole open the show by discussing the statement released by Susie Wolff regarding her filing of a criminal complaint against the FIA. We admire and respect Susie for standing up for what is right. Briana and Nicole also talk about the latest updates in Christian Horner’s sexual harassment allegations.
So since Ferrari had Carlos Sainz finish P1 and Charles Leclerc finish P2 in Australia that means they closed the gap to Red Bull, right?? Well maybe not… Briana and Nicole play Red Flag to determine what does Ferrari need to do to show that their performance is the real deal?
Mclaren had another big marketing win! Lando Norris was a guest on the beloved Chicken Shop Date! Why is this such a huge deal? Will we now see more drivers on Chicken Shop Date?
Grid Walk heads Into The Wild to discuss the FIA’s latest refereeing decisions. Was the FIA right about Fernando Alonso’s penalty? What are the real issues with the penalty process in F1?

Overheated returns because Briana and Nicole are making some hot takes headed into the race weekend! Will Mclaren be a top 3 team? Is Haas the slowest car? Can Alpine make it out of Q1? Could both RB drivers finish in the points? Will any car on the F1 grid be close to Red Bull?
F1 Academy continues to announce more major partners, most recently Puma and Tommy Hilfiger. What makes F1 Academy’s announcement so exciting? Why can F1 Academy’s roll outs be seen as a success?
The lame duck shenanigans of the 2024 season have officially begun! What can we take away from Lewis Hamilton’s quotes about his move to Ferrari? Were Ferrari or Mercedes the winners of PR management?
It is time for the first Grid Walk race predictions of the season! But first, Nicole has to pay up for losing the prediction battle of last season by sharing her Bahrain GP predictions from an ice bath! Will Sergio Perez be on the podium this weekend? What driver just make it in the points at P10?

The (beautifully improved) Tire of Topics is back! There are so many pre-season testing topics and the tire will decide what gets discussed on Grid Walk!

Grid Walk has a special guest this week…one of the four legged executive producers makes a special appearance! Parker needed to join Briana and Nicole on this week’s Grid Walk to rant (and mostly bark) about the recent misfortunes of being an F1 fan.
A return to Frustration Station before the start of the F1 season?? This time it is Briana and Nicole making a visit to the station, not F1 drivers. It is time to talk about the false advertising of car launch season! (Looking at you Williams!) How are F1 teams like Ferrari and Aston Martin incorrectly setting fans’ expectations? What can be done about all the carbon fiber? How are F1 teams leaning into pop culture with their launches?
Briana and Nicole return to their prop bets from the Alpine launch. The results weren’t pretty but that is really Alpine’s fault. Where did Alpine really miss the mark? What did Alpine’s launch potentially reveal regarding the speed of their car?
Nicole delivers a SUPER edition of Gossip Grid with everything you need to know about F1 and pop culture at the Super Bowl! Is there anyone Alpine isn’t a fan of? Who did Logan Sargeant and Kevin Magnussen pick to win the big game? What singer’s outfit is ready for the paddock? Obviously, there are all the details of the Visa Cash App RB launch!
A new F1 season means new sponsors (and some favorite returners)! Briana and Nicole share with F1 sponsorships they are most looking forward to this year. Will Duracell continue to impress with Williams? Will Celsius and Ferrari step it up in 2024? Will Mercedes take advantage of their last year with Lewis Hamilton (and his brand)?

Unless you are living under a rock, everyone know why this EMERGENCY Grid Walk episode is being released after the usual weekly episode. Lewis Hamilton is leaving Mercedes in 2025 and joining Ferrari!?!?!?
Briana and Nicole being diehard Lewis fans had to chat about this INSANE news and give their initial reactions (while they are still processing)! What could have possibly happened since August, when Mercedes announced a contract extension with Lewis? What could cause Lewis to leave Mercedes? Why is it a smart (or maybe not so smart) move for Lewis to go to Ferrari? In what ways is Lewis Hamilton bigger than F1? What reasons (besides being the G.O.A.T.) would lead Ferrari to sign Lewis? What does this mean for Mercedes & F1?

The first episode of Season 2 of Grid Walk is here! Briana and Nicole are back for another season of F1 themed shenanigans! The F1 2024 season hasn’t even started and there is A TON to discuss!
Haas kicked off the year with a bang by announcing the departure of Team Principal Guenther Steiner. How will Guenther's departure affect Haas on and off the track? Does the sister team model actually work in F1?
Grid Walk heads into the wild on the first episode of season 2! The FIA has lost Steve Nielsen (sporting director) and Tim Goss (single-seater technical director). What do these departures reveal about the current state of the FIA?
Williams follows Mclaren by staying as a Mercedes customer engine from 2026-2030. What insight does this give for how F1 teams’ perform under the new regulations? Should this be a positive sign for Mercedes fans?
Formula E team Mahindra disappointed motorsports fans when they introduced their AI generated female influencer. How did Mahindra completely miss the mark? Should AI influencers exist?
Williams has been killing it with their sponsors so far in 2024! Why should Williams be considered such a valuable partner to their sponsors? What did Williams do with the Abercrombie F1 collection that Mclaren didn't?

This is the second of the three Grid Walk F1 2023 Season review episodes! This week Briana and Nicole breakdown the performance of the F1 teams by looking at qualifying data from the season.
It was a surprise to no one Red Bull was the best. Did Red Bull build the most dominant F1 car ever?
Rewind to the beginning, Aston Martin seemed like the F1 team that could compete with Red Bull. When it came to qualifying, was the Aston Martin or Ferrari F1 team the (second) fastest?
Then F1 teams begin to introduce upgrades. Mercedes abandoned the “no sidepods” concept but did it help? Where did Mclaren really begin to pick up pace? How did things get better for Williams?
That the end of the F1 season had plenty of chaos. Lewis Hamilton worked his magic and Mercedes had some good moments. How does Alpine see the consequences of firing everyone?
Grid Walk talks about the stories across the entire F1 grid. Looking at the back of the grid (Haas, Alfa Romeo, Alpha Tauri, Williams), which car was the worst? How many times were these F1 teams the slowest car on the grid?
Briana and Nicole give an overview of the F1 grid’s performance. What F1 teams were the most surprising? What F1 teams are going into 2024 with the best vibes?

It’s Las Vegas Grand Prix week baby!! Briana and Nicole are probably the 2 F1 fans most excited for the Las Vegas Grand Prix (that aren’t being paid by F1 to do so)! F1 is returning to Las Vegas and Grid Walk is here with a LAS VEGAS EXTRAVAGANZA of an episode to get you ready for the race in Sin City!
F1 interest in the US is at a high, the US already has 2 F1 races, but F1 wants to capitalize on its growth by racing in the entertainment capital of the country: VEGAS! What era of F1 is this? The answer is now AND 40 years ago! Briana and Nicole talk about the Caesars Palace Grand Prix a.k.a. the parking lot race. Why did the original Las Vegas Grand Prix fail? What did F1 learn from the last time F1 raced in Vegas?
Formula 1 has made it clear that it is committed to the city of Las Vegas. Many are skeptical that the Las Vegas Grand Prix will be a success. What things would make the Las Vegas Grand Prix considered a success in the short and long term? In what ways does F1 make money from the Las Vegas Grand Prix?
It is not a secret that the Las Vegas Grand Prix did not sell out and many tickets are still available. Should people be freaking out that the inaugural F1 race on the Las Vegas Strip isn’t sold out? If the race does not sell out does that make it a failure for F1? Is the real issue with Las Vegas GP ticket sales the mispriced product, lack of on track competition, or both?
Briana and Nicole their personal rubrics of success for the Las Vegas Grand Prix! What items did Grid Walk listeners rank as most important to their Las Vegas GP opinion?
Netflix had its first live sporting event this week with the Netflix Cup, an F1 drivers and PGA golf tournament! It is awesome that Netflix would pick Formula 1 to be a part of such a big event. Where did the Netflix Cup hit the mark and where did it miss?
Nicole blindly ranks (almost all) the F1 merch drops for the Las Vegas Grand Prix! Which F1 team successfully channeled the energy of Las Vegas?
Formula One has their press machine running at full speed for the race this weekend. How successful has the coverage been at getting F1 into pop culture? Is it too little too late to create on track excitement through the press? How many people will get married in the chapel in the F1 paddock?
Alright, so Max Verstappen is probably going to win the race this weekend (again). To make the Vegas Grand Prix Weekend more exciting, Briana and Nicole decide to create F1 prop bets! Checkout Briana and Nicole’s full list of prop bets on the Grid Walk stories and then screenshot to share yours!
Briana and Nicole give you a preview of the Las Vegas Grand Prix! What sort of racing will fans get from the pig shaped circuit? Especially with the cold temperatures, what will be the correct Pirelli tire strategy? How problematic will the narrow exit of the pitlane be? Briana and Nicole also share their predictions for the Las Vegas Grand Prix!

Alright so technically the Brazilian Grand Prix was an F1 race weekend…however Grid Walk would much rather focus on the off track activities from São Paulo! But don’t worry Briana and Nicole do talk about the Brazilian Grand Prix. What made Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team so slow in São Paulo? How many days left until Mercedes fans say goodbye to the W14?
Another F1 race weekend means Grid Walk race podiums! Lewis Hamilton once again turned the paddock into a runway. Briana celebrates the second Lewis Hamilton week of the year by ranking all of Lewis’ fits from Brazil. The Brazilian Grand Prix brought F1 fans some emotional radios.

After every single F1 race weekend Grid Walk shares polls on Instagram (@gridwalkshow) - make sure you follow to share your vote! Briana and Nicole chat about the results of the polls from the Brazilian Grand Prix. Was Max Verstappen just toying with Lando Norris at the start of the Brazilian Grand Prix? How many DNFs are “too many” DNFs? Has Aston Martin made their comeback or was this a one-off result?
The latest makeup brand to see the potential in motorsports is Anastasia Beverly Hills. It has been announced that Bianca Bustamante is racing at the Macau Grand Prix in Formula 4 and welcoming some new sponsors, including Anastasia Beverly Hills! How does Anastasia Beverly Hills coming in as a sponsor demonstrate the power of the female fanbase in motorsports? Will other makeup companies see the potential of motorsports like Anastasia Beverly Hills, e.l.f., and Tarte cosmetics have already?

Grill the Grid Walk Host is back! Is Nicole better at pictionary than F1 drivers? Briana takes some of the prompts from one of F1’s Grill the Grid segments and quizzes Nicole. Will Nicole be able to name the F1 vocabulary based on the F1 drivers’ drawings?

Red Racer Books help kids (or adults!) learn about racing in a way that is fun, easy to understand, and, one of the best parts - engaging to all genders! Andy joins Briana and Nicole for this week’s podiums. What are the best F1 track turn names? What moments at COTA gave all non-attendees FOMO? Some F1 fans have a definition for unacceptable fan behavior…but sometimes fans are just having fun! What fandom moments would cause these F1 fans to see stars?
Mercedes really let Lewis Hamilton down this weekend, numerous times. There is no elephant in the room this week, Briana and Nicole share their frustrations after the events of the USGP. Putting the disqualification aside for a moment, how was it possible for Lewis Hamilton to win in Austin? What is going on with Mercedes’ pit stops?
Grid Walk heads Into The Wild to discuss the FIA’s disqualification of Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc from the USGP. Lewis Hamilton lost his P2 and Charles Leclerc lost his P6 due to failing post race plank checks. Why are only four F1 cars checked for plank wear after a race?
No more F1 Sprint Races - PLEASE! Briana and Nicole are officially done with Sprint Races. What is Formula 1’s goal and are they achieving it? Why was the COTA chosen to hold an F1 Sprint Race this year?

Briana and Nicole are in Austin in every way…except physically that is. The COTA FOMO is real! With the United States Grand Prix this weekend Briana and Nicole reminisce on their trip to COTA in 2022. How is the 2022 USGP closely connected to the creation of Grid Walk?
Alright so it is time for Grid Walk to address the elephant in the room from the Qatar Grand Prix. There was some on track drama for Mercedes F1 Team on the Losail International Circuit. Lewis Hamilton and George Russell had a collision at Turn 1 of the Qatar GP. Briana and Nicole are not shy about being Lewis Hamilton fans so they needed some time to “chill” before addressing the collison.
At this point, it is impossible to deny that the FIA treats Lewis Hamilton differently from other F1 drivers. Briana and Nicole discuss the FIA reopening the investigation into Lewis Hamilton for crossing the track at the Qatar GP. Is the FIA able to reopen an investigation like this? Is the FIA really just trying to focus on the betterment of safety in motorsports or is the FIA considering other factors?
Daniel Ricciardo is making his return to the F1 grid…again! For the second time in the F1 2023 season DR3 is making his F1 return in the Alpha Tauri. Daniel Ricciardo has been out since the Hungarian GP due to a broken hand. Austin is the perfect place for Daniel Ricciardo to come back to the F1 grid and it is only right that Daniel Ricciardo releases a merchandise line full of Austin vibes! What is it about Daniel Ricciardo’s merchandise for the 2023 USGP that makes it stand out? How is Daniel Ricciardo trying to appeal to female F1 fans?
There has been a crazy amount of F1 news! Even more investors are getting their piece of the Alpine F1 Team! This time the Alpine F1 Team is welcoming Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes as new investors? Netflix announced its first live sporting event with a Driver to Survive and Full Swing crossover event! Will Netflix be able to live up to the hype and expectations? Scuderia Ferrari has released “football” jerseys for the United States Grand Prix, what?? How did Scuderia Ferrari hit and miss the mark at the same time with these jerseys? NETFLIX GOLD
Briana and Nicole continue their F1 predictions battles as they attempt to predict the United States Grand Prix! Will Mclaren F1 Team be able to maintain their momentum? Will Lando Norris or Oscar Piastri make it on the podium in Austin? Will Scuderia Ferrari have better luck at COTA than they did at Qatar? Which F1 team will come out on top during the F1 Sprint Race?
Austin also has the return of F1 Academy for the final race weekend of 2023! Somehow Briana and Nicole are TIED in their F1 Academy picks?? Will Marta García solidify the championship this weekend? Will either Léna Bühler or Hamda Al Qubaisi catch up? How will the first real F1 Academy broadcast go?

Formula 1 is basically a traveling circus and the Qatar Grand Prix felt like that but on steroids! The entire weekend at the Qatar Grand Prix seemed like the most chaotic F1 race weekend so far! Briana and Nicole talked about everything that happened in Qatar and more on the new episode of Grid Walk!
Oscar Piastri finished P1 in the Sprint Race in Qatar!! Grid Walk has to take a moment to celebrate this awesome weekend for Mclaren F1 Team’s driver Oscar Piastri! Oscar Piastri was the bright spot in the middle of the chaotic race weekend. Briana shares her favorite Oscar Piastri moments from the Qatar Grand Prix weekend!
Almost every F1 driver appeared to be in rough shape after the grueling Qatar GP. Many F1 drivers were taken to the medical team, needed assistance getting out of cars, or were physically sick. Briana and Nicole discuss what should be done to better protect F1 drivers’ safety. Is the Qatar GP safe enough for F1 to continue racing?
There were several moments from the race weekend that just made us go “uhhhh..WTF?” Can you believe this moment at the Qatar Grand Prix solidified Max Verstappen’s Driver Championship? How was the Drivers Championship Trophy NOT ready for when Verstappen secured the championship after the F1 Sprint Race? Verstappen becoming a champion wasn’t a surprise!
The tire chaos of the Qatar GP went to a new level and it wasn’t the usual F1 tire strategy chaos! Pirelli had to put lap limits on the tires for the Qatar Grand Prix. Why did Pirelli have to implement this rule for Qatar? What the heck are “pyramid curbs?”
Briana & Nicole each have a Qatar GP podium dedicated to a different F1 team! Will Nicole ever learn her lesson when it comes to Scuderia Ferrari? Nicole shares the moments from the Qatar Grand Prix weekend that made her question why she ever put her F1 faith in Scuderia Ferrari? Was it possible for Carlos Sainz to have a worse weekend? Briana shares the moments from Qatar that had her wondering if MoneyGram Haas F1 Team was an actual F1 team?
This seems to be becoming a weekly discussion at Grid Walk, was the Qatar GP the last straw for Sergio Perez’s seat with Red Bull Racing? Briana and Nicole try to answer “should” and “will” Red Bull Racing replace Checo Perez! Is it likely that Red Bull Racing is putting off a Checo Perez announcement until after the Mexican Grand Prix!
Hear the results of the Qatar Grand Prix post-race polls answered by Grid Walk followers! Included in those polls is the FIA’s recent announcement about Andretti! Is it just a matter of time before Liberty Media/Formula One Management announce an 11th F1 team or would it be because they were pressured to do so?
Grid Walk heads Into The Wild to discuss the latest saga of Formula 1 and track limit violations! (Special shoutout to F1 Multiviewer for the track limit violations tracker!) Should track violations even be monitored in F1? If so, how can the FIA be better at monitoring track limits?

This could potentially be the MOST jam packed episode of Grid Walk yet! Briana & Nicole had such a great chat with Bryson Sullivan (NaturalParadigm) that there is bonus content! Briana, Nicole, & Bryson discuss the F1 fandom, reminisce about the USGP of 2022, & cover the Qatar Grand Prix. But that is only some of F1 fun that you can expect on episode 37 of Grid Walk!
Time for an F1 Ring update! A few weeks ago Grid Walk chatted about the rumors of the FIA approving the F1 application of Andretti. This week the FIA did announce that they have approved the Andretti bid to be added as the 11th F1 team on the grid. But the FIA’s announcement was only HALF of an announcement?! Andretti still needs to be approved by Formula One Media (FOM) and Liberty Media! Is this the FIA’s way of putting pressure on FOM and Liberty Media who haven’t necessarily agreed with the public’s positive view about Andretti?
Grid Walk heads into the wild because the zebras are at it again! The FIA is still not doing the best job at hiding their Red Bull favoritism…oops! At the Singapore GP Max Verstappen managed to get away with multiple penalties. So only Max Verstappen is able to chill out in the pit lane like that? AlphaTauri just didn’t show up to their stewarding hearing for Max Verstappen impeding Yuki Tsunoda? Shoutout to the F1 team for calling this out and filing a complaint on the FIA’s inconsistency!
Okay, just for fun, let’s imagine the current F1 season WITHOUT Red Bull Racing. There would be no Max Verstappen or Checo Perez on the podium or finishing in the points. F1 fans had a slight preview of F1 without Red Bull Racing at the top at the Singapore Grand Prix (but reality came back quickly at the Japanese Grand Prix). Nicole brings you through what the point standings of what the current F1 Constructors Championship would be if there was no Red Bull!
A majority of the F1 fandom was freaking out about certain Formula 1 social media metrics that were released last week. Somehow the F1 fandom concluded that these social media numbers showed that the dominance of Red Bull is RUINING the sport. Well Grid Walk is here to debunk that conclusion! What does the original data really show about F1 social media numbers? What observations can we make from F1 Google Search trends? When was the Tifosi NOT Googling about Ferrari?
Bryson Sullivan shares a podium for the Qatar GP - Which F1 team will (most likely) be 2nd to Red Bull ? Why can’t Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team fix their drag issue?
The F1 race predictions continue and the ice bath gets closer for one of the Grid Walk hosts! Briana & Nicole share their predictions for the Qatar GP. There are extra points up for grabs since there is an F1 Sprint Race this weekend!

This is a very special episode of Grid Walk as Briana and Nicole welcome their inaugural guest, Bryson Sullivan (NaturalParadigm)! Bryson is an engineer and motorsports enthusiast so Grid Walk is honored to have him join the podiums and recap of the Japanese Grand Prix!
The trio discusses the reality of Oracle Red Bull Racing’s “return” to the top (not that Oracle Red Bull Racing ever really left it). F1 constantly feels like a reality TV show so Briana’s podium of Reality TV Show Moments of the Japanese Grand Prix is incredibly on brand! Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team and BWT Alpine F1 Team calling team orders creates the perfect recipe for great reality television. It seems that the F1 camera crew are fans of The Office?? Nicole shares her Most Memorable Quotes of the Japanese Grand Prix weekend! How did Oracle Red Bull Racing’s Max Verstappen continue his streak of “colorful language?” What are the realistics options for Liam Lawson and a seat in Formula 1?
Did you know that Max Verstappen doesn’t like podcasts??? Well then he’ll miss Grid Walk’s discussion of Oracle Red Bull Racing clinching the Constructors' World Championship at the Japanese Grand Prix! It seems like it is inevitable that Max Verstappen will secure the Drivers’ World Championship at the Sprint Race for the Qatar Grand Prix.
There seems to be drama afoot at Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team, we all heard it on the team radio at the Japanese Grand Prix… It’s time the conversation about George Russell leaves the F1 group chat and is part of Grid Walk. Did George Russell forget that he is teammates with 7 time World Champion Lewis Hamilton? If George Russell wants Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team to secure second in the Constructors' World Championship it is time to get real about driving “for the team.”
Nicole delivers a JAM PACKED Gossip Grid, giving you everything you need to know about Formula 1 and pop culture! The Puma x Formula 1 Suzuka collection is a MUST HAVE! Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team’s driver Lewis Hamilton and Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake’s driver Zhou Guanyu both had awesome collaborations with artists for the Japanese Grand Prix! Did Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc audition to model for Scuderia Ferrari?? Why is Jamie Foxx driving an F1 car in Las Vegas? How can Formula 1 learn from what was once the NO FUN LEAGUE a.k.a the NFL? Taylor Swift broke the internet and basically everything this weekend when she attended Arrowhead Stadium to cheer on Travis Kelce. Somehow the craziest part of this is, the NFL leaning into a female audience?! What does the NFL’s social media and viewership numbers from Sunday show about what happens when a league caters to their female fanbase?
Did Sergio “Checo” Perez solidify losing his Oracle Red Bull Racing seat at the Japanese Grand Prix? Does Oracle Red Bull Racing care about their second seat being competitive to Max Verstappen? Why does Lando Norris feel like the elephant in the room of this conversation?Grid Walk is a weekly Formula 1 show that releases every Thursday.

Max Verstappen DIDN’T WIN the Singapore Grand Prix??? Oracle Red Bull Racing WASN’T on the podium??? Scuderia Ferrari and Carlos Sainz are the ones that ended Max Verstappen race win streak?!?!!? This all sounds like a fever dream but it is SO REAL and Grid Walk can’t wait to talk about the Singapore Grand Prix! You know that Briana and Nicole were celebrating Lewis Hamilton in P3!
WOW can every Formula 1 race be like the Singapore Grand Prix?? The Singapore Grand Prix showed how exciting it can be if just one F1 team was able to consistently compete with Oracle Red Bull Racing! So is Alpha Tauri driver Liam Lawson in trouble with Oracle Red Bull Racing after he kept Max Verstappen from advancing to Q3 on Saturday? Prepare yourself, Briana and Nicole don’t have much sympathy for George Russell.
Podium moments of every F1 race weekend are a Grid Walk tradition! Briana kicks off the Singapore Grand Prix Podiums with her favorite special liveries, helmets, etc.! Where were all of the sparkly helmets for this year’s Singapore Grand Prix?? Can Williams Racing keep using the Gulf livery and race suits all year??? Nicole shares her favorite F1 quotes from the Singapore Grand Prix! It seemed like every F1 driver had to talk about how Godzilla was on the Marina Bay Street Circuit. Should Grid Walk start a count for the amount of times Nicole will now quote Max Verstappen’s “absolutely shocking experience?” Briana also shares her favorite F1 Media Moments from the Singapore Grand Prix weekend! Shoutout to whoever on the Scuderia Ferrari social media team that put together the Oppenheimer video edit! How did Oracle Red Bull Racing show that they can have fun even during a rough weekend?
Okay, let’s get real about Oracle Red Bull Racing and the Singapore Grand Prix. Grid Walk talks about all of the variables that contributed to Oracle Red Bull Racing’s “downfall” at the Marina Bay Street Circuit. Did the FIA’s latest technical directive play a part? What we do know is Oracle Red Bull Racing implemented an upgrade to that just didn’t work! Are all F1 fans really going to have to wait until the Japanese Grand Prix to find out if Oracle Red Bull Racing’s dominance is over? When are we going to get a permanent F1 Juniors broadcast?
It may not technically be F1 Silly Season but there have been plenty of headlines that sound like F1 Silly Season! There are 4 (including the second Oracle Red Bull Racing seat…Sorry Checo) that Grid Walk considers up in the air for the 2024 F1 season. Will the Alpha Tauri drivers next year be Yuki Tsunoda and Daniel Ricciardo? After his recent success will Liam Lawson NOT be in an F1 car next year?
Grid Walk’s F1 race predictions competition continues! Briana and Nicole are both very competitive but they can agree that they are willing to lose every prediction and take an ice bath for every remaining race to be as exciting as the Singapore Grand Prix! Does Briana or Nicole have faith that Scuderia Ferrari and Carlos Sainz can continue their success in Japan? What will happen with Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant F1 Team or BWT Alpine F1 Team?

Things get HEATED on the new episode of Grid Walk and not just because Briana’s AC is currently broken! Briana and Nicole have (almost) recovered from the return of the NFL. Briana shares how the NFL and Formula 1 can learn from each other! This weekend is about to get even crazier because it is an F1 RACE WEEKEND along with the football! (Thank goodness the Eagles play on Thursday.)
Before diving into a bunch of Formula 1 fun, Briana and Nicole take a moment to condemn the recent unacceptable comments made by Helmut Marko. Sergio Perez deserves better.
It is time for the F1 night race, the Singapore Grand Prix! Briana gives you everything you need to know about the track changes made to the Marina Bay Street Circuit. How will this new layout of the Singapore Grand Prix affect the race? Grid Walk also goes over the Pirelli tire graphic! With the 100% rate of safety car at the Singapore Grand Prix will we see every F1 driver start on hard tires and hope for a one stop race?
The battle to avoid an ice bath continues with Grid Walk’s predictions for the Singapore Grand Prix! Have Briana and Nicole been speaking too much because these predictions are getting wild? It is basically a guarantee that the competition will continue to be close after the Singapore Grand Prix. Will Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant F1 Team end up on the podium with Fernando Alonso? Will Williams Racing driver Alex Albon be able to continue his points streak on the Marina Bay Street Circuit?
Rumor has it, recently rebranded (which is not at all related to this rumor…), Andretti Global will be receiving approval to join the Formula 1 grid from the FIA any day now. This is the perfect opportunity to bring back a Grid Walk favorite, the F1 Ring! The F1 Ring is the best way for the FIA, FOM, Liberty Media, Andretti Global, the 10 F1 Teams (BWT Alpine F1 Team delivering an opposing opinion) to fight it out!
There has been a little bit of a hiatus of Grid Walk’s Formula 1 X pop culture segment, Gossip Grid! Briana and Nicole talk about how the SAG (Screen Actors Guild) and WGA (Writers Guild of America) may be affecting Formula 1? What other aspects could have caused the lack of Formula 1 in pop culture? There is some good news, the Gossip Grid hiatus is over! Nicole finally has enough F1 in pop culture to share and it’s a grand return! Nicole’s favorite Twitch streamer named a Sims baby after Max Verstappen??? What is happening during the pit stop of the Brad Pitt F1 movie? What comes in the “Checo Menu” at McDonalds? Mclaren F1 Team’s driver, Lando Norris was spotted wearing a friendship bracelet but what does it say???

Grid Walk is in a GREAT mood this week because the Italian Grand Prix was better than the Dutch Grand Prix AND the NFL season has officially begun! (GO BIRDS.) Grid Walk has some special F1 thank yous to distribute for their good moods! You know that Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team, Scuderia Ferrari, and Williams Racing all get a shoutout.
Every F1 race weekend Grid Walk has fun F1 polls on all Grid Walk social media accounts (@gridwalkshow - you should follow)! Briana shares the results of the poll results for the Italian Grand Prix! What did Grid Walk listeners think about Carlos Sainz racing against Max Verstappen? Are people no longer surprised when Alex Albon scores points for Williams Racing? Is Monza the only circuit that Scuderia Ferrari really cares about? We need to know who believes that Sergio Perez was never/is not at risk of losing his seat at Oracle Red Bull Racing?
IT’S ABOUT TIME!!! Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team FINALLY announced a contract extension until 2025!! Apparently, Lewis Hamilton had signed this contract back in MAY! First off, HOW DARE YOU TOTO WOLFF! Why did Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team hold out on the news and does it have to do with George Russell (who also had his contract extended until 2025)?
Briana and Nicole definitely enjoyed the Italian Grand Prix much more than the Dutch Grand Prix! What moments at Monza made it Grid Walk’s Italian Grand Prix Podiums? Nicole delivers two opposing podiums - Surprising Things from Italian Grand Prix and NON Surprising Things from Italian Grand Prix! SPOILER ALERT: A lot of the Italian Grand Prix surprises were thanks to Scuderia Ferrari! Tifos was given an exciting home race at Monza. During the Italian Grand Prix, Briana came up with some games to make the race extra-entertaining! Do you think Max Verstappen was ever driving at full speed during the Italian Grand Prix? When did you notice that BWT Alpine F1 Team’s driver Esteban Ocon DNFed at Monza?
It is not “New News” that the dominance of Oracle Red Bull Racing and Max Verstappen is unprecedented in Formula 1. Since the 2022 F1 season there has been a new set of regulations. There is also currently an engine freeze..when Honda has developed an incredibly strong power unit. AND don’t forget about the F1 cost cap! During Free Practice of the Italian Grand Prix a lightbulb went off in Briana’s head about how all of these elements together has F1 stuck until 2026!
There has been a noticeable increase in sponsored social media content being posted by F1 drivers! Briana and Nicole both work in marketing and so “sponcon” is one of their favorite things to talk about! Alex Albon is one of the most marketable F1 drivers! What is the key to Alex Albon’s marketability? What do all the new business endeavors that Valtteri Bottas is pursuing potentially reveal about the Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake driver?

WELCOME BACK FROM F1 SUMMER BREAK! It is time for the Italian Grand Prix to end the long summer shutdown because there is no such thing as the Dutch Grand Prix, right? The Dutch Grand Prix didn’t happen?? That's at least what Briana and Nicole are telling themselves on the new episode of Grid Walk to cope with the far from ideal race weekend.
Formula 1 news never waits! Briana and Nicole come together for some last minute recording to discuss the latest breaking F1 news! The FIA has released a technical directive regarding the flexibility of wings on F1 cars. The FIA has developed this technical directive after observing the performance of certain F1 teams. What does this mean for the development of the F1 teams for the rest of the season?
Raise your hand if you’ve ever been personally victimized by Formula 1! Briana and Nicole hold a small venting session for their latest woes as an F1 fan. Was the Dutch Grand Prix a personal attack? Will Scuderia AlphaTauri driver Daniel Ricciardo make a recovery before the end of the 2023 F1 season? Will Scuderia Ferrari figure out how to do a pitstop?
Inspired by F1’s hysterical video series “Grill the Grid,” Briana and Nicole play “Grill the Grid Walk Host!” Nicole has to try and put all of the F1 drivers in age order and it is a lot harder than it sounds! Briana is put to the test with F1 trivia that even the F1 drivers struggled to answer! Can Briana name 2 F1 drivers for each prompt Nicole throws at her: “Won A Race for Mclaren F1 Team,” “Won The Championship In A Ferrari,” “Raced For Two Different F1 Teams In The Same Season,’ and more!
Formula 1 is headed to Monza this race week for the Italian Grand Prix! Briana and Nicole’s Italian Grand Prix preview gives you all the must have information. What tire compounds is Pirelli recommending for the Italian Grand Prix? How does the circuit at Monza compare to Zandvoort? The Grid Walk competition to avoid an ice bath continues with Briana and Nicole’s Italian Grand Prix Predictions! Will Alex Albon score points again for Williams Racing after his impressive P8 finish at the Dutch Grand Prix? Will Oracle Red Bull Racing driver Sergio Perez be able to maintain a pace to be on the podium with teammate Max Verstappen?

Grid Walk is a weekly Formula 1 show that releases every Thursday. For daily F1 content follow @gridwalkshow on all social media platforms.
F1 summer break is officially coming to an end with the F1 circus headed to Zandvoort for the Formula 1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix! Grid Walk is here to give you everything you need to catch up on after the F1 summer shutdown!
One of the things Grid Walk missed the most during F1 summer break was the Pirelli tire graphic!!! Obviously the Pirelli tire graphic makes an appearance for the preview of the Formula 1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix! The Zandvoort Circuit usually means plenty of tire degradation. What pit stop strategy does Pirelli predict for the Dutch Grand Prix!? Will the podium from last year’s Dutch Grand Prix repeat itself with Max Verstappen, George Russell, and Charles Leclerc?
It is time for Grid Walk to reset their F1 race predictions competitions but not before Nicole serves her punishment for losing the competition during the first half of the F1 season. For the Dutch Grand Prix predictions, Nicole is breaking a sweat on an exercise bike! Is it time to sound the hope alarm? Where do Briana and Nicole predict Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team driver Lewis Hamilton will finish at the Dutch Grand Prix? Will Oracle Red Bull Racing driver Sergio Perez or Mclaren F1 Team’s Oscar Piastri make it on the podium? Which Formula 1 team that is NOT Oracle Red Bull Racing will score the most points? Is it even a possibility for Williams Racing to score points at such a high downforce track like the Zandvoort Circuit?
Tire of Topics is back again but this time Briana and Nicole are updating you on all of last year’s silly season headlines. This F1 silly season has been rather quiet, besides BWT Alpine F1 Team basically firing everyone so let’s take a look back at some of the wild stories from the 2022 F1 silly season and were these good movies made? What would have happened if Colton Herta got a super license exception to drive for Scuderia AlphaTauri? Was parting ways with Mattia Binotto a smart move for Scuderia Ferrari? Was Pierre Gasly’s switch from Scuderia AlphaTauri to BWT Alpine F1 Team the right choice?
Yellow Sector Notes wraps up Grid Walk by talking you through the paddock to give you an update on every F1 team! What new business venture is Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake driver Valtteri Bottas pursuing? Will Scuderia Ferrari and Charles Leclerc announce a contract extension at the Italian Grand Prix? How many years does Williams Racing Team Principal’s believe you can realistically plan for and is this shade at BWT Alpine F1 Team?

Only one more week before F1 fans can say “It’s race week!” once again! F1 summer break is coming to a close with the Dutch Grand Prix next week! Before wrapping up the F1 summer shutdown Grid Walk is here to give you the latest in all things in Formula 1!
This week Nicole delivers some of her midseason highlights from the F1 season so far! Nicole starts with her Favorite Podiums Parties aka the F1 podiums that were her favorite in the first half of the F1 season! Obviously, Esteban Ocon’s P3 finish at the Monaco Grand Prix is on the list but where does it fall? What about the Spanish Grand Prix with the double Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team podium for Lewis Hamilton and George Russell?
Shoutout to the social media team at the Circuit Of The Americas!! Last week, COTA posted on their social media accounts encouraging their followers to trade friendship bracelets at this year’s Formula 1 Lenovo United States Grand Prix! Briana and Nicole attended the United States Grand Prix last year and coincidentally made F1 friendship bracelets for each other! What are the implications of COTA posting something like this and what does it tell us about the demographics that COTA is trying to appeal to? Briana and Nicole share friendship bracelets they would make and trade with F1 drivers.
Briana and Nicole admire any effort made when drivers attempt paddock fits. It is only right that one of the Grid Walk midseason podiums is best paddock fits! It is also no surprise that all of the spots belong to Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team driver Lewis Hamilton and Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake driver Zhou Guanyu. This F1 fashion podium is another piece of evidence to show how different Briana and Nicole’s tastes are!
Grid Walk is a Formula 1 podcast but Briana and Nicole HAD to talk about the IndyCar drama happening with Alex Palou! Briana delivers the details of the saga between Alex Palou, Chip Ganassi Racing and McLaren. What has chief executive officer of McLaren Racing Zac Brown been saying to the press? How is this situation reminiscent of the Oscar Piastri, Mclaren F1 Team, and BWT Alpine F1 Team deal? Will motorsport fans ever get to see Alex Palou driving in Formula 1?
Podium: Favorite F1 Races. This podium gets spicy!! Briana and Nicole share their favorite F1 races from the first half of the season! What controversial take does Nicole take that causes Briana to be shocked? Does the Monaco Grand Prix end up on both Grid Walk podiums?
Yellow Sector Notes takes us through the paddock with as many stops at F1 garages as possible during F1 summer break! When is Scuderia Ferrari running a special livery to celebrate the win at The 24 Hours of Le Mans? Is Mick Schumacher headed to Williams Racing? Is F1 implementing a DRS ban?

F1 summer shutdown is in full swing! Grid Walk kicks off a little differently this week! Briana receives an important package that sparks an impromptu mail haul! What does one wear to a “black tie optional” event?? (Really, if you know, can you comment lol) You can tell from Nicole’s voice that she is recovering from an exciting weekend at Lollapalooza in Chicago! The weekend was so exciting that Delta canceled her flight so Nicole is not in her usual Grid Walk setting! A canceled flight doesn’t stop Nicole from sharing about the Lana Del Rey and Red Hot Chilli Peppers Grand Prix and all of the F1 fans she got to meet in Chicago!
Tire of Topics is here again to keep all F1 fans informed about the latest headlines of F1 drivers’ silly season! It is only the second week of silly season topics on the tire and Scuderia Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz has been put back on the Pirelli tire! Can Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team just announce a signed contract already?? Is Lando Norris talking to Oracle Red Bull Racing again or is Lando Norris sticking with Mclaren F1 Team? Is Liberty Media pressuring Oracle Red Bull Racing to put “a more competitive driver” in the second Red Bull seat to race against Max Verstappen? What is Alex Albon’s plan for wanting to stay at Williams Racing? How much longer will F1 fans see Max Verstappen at Oracle Red Bull Racing or in Formula 1 in general?
Briana has prepared her Midseason F1 Review Podiums, some of Briana’s favorite moments from the F1 season thus far! Grid Walk loves marketing and business so it is not surprising.
Briana starts with her Favorite F1 Marketing Moments. Did Google Chrome and Mclaren F1 hit it out of the park? What clothing company had a major W with their F1 merchandise? Can we reminisce on the excitement of Celsius Energy Drink and Scuderia Ferrari entering a partnership? Can more makeup companies like Tarte Cosmetics use F1 races for brand trips??
F1 teams have given several jaw dropping Tech Upgrades so far! Briana shares her favorite F1 tech moments that we’ve gotten during the first half of the F1 season. Was Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team’s introduction of the B-Spec car a hopeful moment? Remember all the way back to car launches and the mystery of Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant F1 Team’s AMR23? F1 fans have to agree that one of the most exciting moments of the season was getting to the floor of Oracle Red Bull Racing’s RB19 at the Monaco Grand Prix!
Even though the paddock is a bit quiet right now Yellow Sector Notes still takes us through the grid (well as much as possible)! Will Mclaren F1 Team let Indy Car Pato O’Ward drive in the free practice rookie session in Mexico? Scuderia Alpha Tauri driver Yuki Tsunoda has dropped merch exclusively in Japan! It is confirmed, Lewis Hamilton’s beloved dog, Roscoe, will make an appearance in the upcoming Brad Pitt F1 movie that Lewis Hamilton is executive producing!

F1 has officially entered summer break but Grid Walk hasn’t! So don’t worry Episode 28 is the first episode you’ll be getting throughout the entire F1 Summer Break! Grid Walk will give you the Formula 1 fix you’re missing!Briana and Nicole deliver a one of a kind Spa Summary, definitely opposite of the weather from the Belgian Grand Prix. Once again Max Verstappen tops the podium at P1. It seemed like Oscar Piastri was finally cracking the secret of catching up to Oracle Red Bull Racing and Max Verstappen during the F1 Sprint Race. If only Oscar Piastri was able to race on Sunday and we got to see even more competition with his Mclaren F1 Teammate Lando Norris. Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team came to the Belgian Grand Prix with some pretty big upgrades. How will Mercedes drivers’ Lewis Hamilton and George Russell perform when the rest of the upgrade is installed at the Dutch Grand Prix?It has been a rough few weeks for BWT Alpine F1 Team. Most recently it was announced that Team Principal Otmar Szafnauer and Sporting Director Alan Permane will be leaving the team. Technical Director Pat Fry is also departing BWT Alpine F1 Team for the same role at Williams Racing. BWT Alpine F1 Team has the double DNF at the British Grand Prix that let Mclaren F1 Team leapfrog them in the Constructor’s Standing. Then at the Hungarian Grand Prix it was another double DNF for Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon. Is there any hope for BWT Alpine F1 Team??The Tire of Topics returns to decide which F1 drivers’ silly season headlines and rumors Briana and Nicole will discuss! Has a recent sponsorship change at Scuderia Ferrari revealed the faith of Carlos Sainz Jr.? Where do you even start with the Oracle Red Bull Racing #2 seat? The second Red Bull seat currently belongs to Sergio Perez but with the removal of Nyck de Vries and return of Daniel Ricciardo should Sergio Perez be nervous?? What about the other Scuderia Alpha Tauri driver Yuki Tsunoda?? Williams Racing is one of the F1 teams with a rookie! Logan Sargeant has yet to score a point. Did MoneyGram Haas F1 Team driver Nico Hülkenberg’s decision to go platinum blonde was to get more attention?It isn’t a secret that Spa is Briana and Nicole’s least favorite circuit but they still managed to deliver podiums this week! Nicole delivers shares moments from the weekend that made her smile but it is all off track because the Belgian Grand Prix makes her nervous. Has Scuderia Ferrari and Oracle Red Bull Racing started the F1 Sticker Wars? Susie Wolff shared the major announcement that all F1 Academy races will now be broadcasted! Briana shares how the coverage of the Belgian Grand Prix would have been different if it wasn’t right before the start of the F1 Summer Break! Shouldn’t tifosi be celebrating a Scuderia Ferrari and Charles Leclerc podium much louder? Can we please get a deeper diver into Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team upgrades??

Are there new F1 teams joining the grid? Did multiple teams break the cost cap during the 2022 F1 Season? Find out all of this and MORE with Briana and Nicole on this episode of Grid Walk!
Google Translate Corner is back with a double whammy this week! The German media has reported that 2 applications for new F1 teams on the grid have been accepted. The whispers say the applications belong to Andretti Autosport and Hitech Grand Prix even though 4 applications were submitted in total to the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA). Formula One Management (FOM) and the current F1 teams are not going to be happy about this… How would the addition of 2 more F1 teams affect the F1 fan experience of watching a race?
While Grid Walk’s Italian is better than German, we’re still thankful for Google Translate to give us the details of the F1 budget cap rumors. What does F1 President Stefano Domenicalli say about sporting penalties in F1? Is it just a better idea for F1 teams to break the cost cap in order to catch up to Oracle Red Bull Racing, especially if the FIA’s consequences aren’t tough?

Grid Walk would like a personal apology from Toto Wolff for getting hopes up about Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team’s performance at The British Grand Prix. We wanted a Lewis Hamilton race win but a P3 finish will have to do.
Nicole also accidentally predicts the future, before it was official that Daniel Ricciardo will be replacing Nyck de Vries at Scuderia AlphaTauri! (Make sure to listen to the bonus episode!)

The Austrian Grand Prix was definitely [DELETED FOR VIOLATING TRACK LIMITS]. On episode 24 of Grid Walk, Briana and Nicole go through the events that led to a podium for Max Verstappen, Charles Leclerc, and Sergio Perez.
Several drivers have purchased a ticket to Frustration Station after the Austrian Grand Prix! Scuderia Ferrari did not make it easy for driver Carlos Sainz who was clearly upset on the team radio. The other Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc also had a moment of distress on the radio when the team was trying to convince him of a 3 stop race! If Sergio Perez wants to convince Oracle Red Bull Racing that he deserves his seat he better not let MoneyGram Haas F1 Team’s driver Nico Hülkenberg pass him. Meanwhile at Scuderia Alpha Tauri, Yuki Tsunoda would probably love to be driving any other car on the F1 grid. Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team and Lewis Hamilton sounded like they couldn’t wait for the Austrian Grand Prix to be over.
After all of the track limits penalties at the Austrian Grand Prix, it is time for the return of Into The Wild. Briana does a deep dive into what the “zebras” of other motorsports do for their regulation practices. What is Video Assistant Referee? Why are walls, sausage curbs, gravel traps, grass not the answer? How can the Snickometer in cricket and Hawk-Eye in tennis help F1 stewards?
It’s Sir Lewis Hamilton Week also known as the British Grand Prix! Silverstone is basically a guarantee for some great racing. Will Lewis Hamilton have a better home race with Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team? How will the new Pirelli tires affect the race weekend? Was Mclaren F1 Team’s success at the Austrian Grand Prix showing that their upgrades worked or was it just Lando Norris’s driving?
SPOILER ALERT: Either Briana or Nicole picked a drive besides Oracle Red Bull Racing’s Max Verstappen to finish P1 at Silverstone.

This Week On the ALEX ALBON (#23) episode of Grid Walk! It’s always sunny in Formula 1… at least somewhere across the multiverse! In this universe the gang attempts to cover everything happening in the world of F1!
BWT Alpine F1 Team has two superheroes and a dude from Philly in the headlines providing us with the first true valuation of an F1 team since the sale of Williams Racing! Ryan Reynolds, Rob McElhenney and Michael B. Jordan are part of an investment group that has acquired a 24% stake in BWT Alpine F1 Team for $218 million. This would give BWT Alpine F1 Team an evaluation of just under $1 BILLION! Does this mean we can now confidently say that some F1 teams are worth more than a billion dollars? What does this tell us about the current bid price for parties interested in joining the F1 Grid, is it enough?

How did Ice T clear up any confusion on Twitter? Lewis Hamilton hopped on a helicopter so he didn’t miss which performance at Glastonbury?
Even though it is only June, it is time to start talking about F1 Silly Season, as the silliness is obviously brewing! Will we see any announcements from Scuderia Ferrari regarding extensions for their drivers Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz Jr.? Will Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team and Lewis Hamilton announce an extended contract at Silverstone? Oracle Red Bull Racing is definitely causing a lot of the SILLY! Has Nyck de Vries’s fate for the 2024 F1 season already been decided? Will Yuki Tsunoda be called up to replace Sergio Perez as Max Verstappen’s teammate? Will Daniel Ricciardo be returning to the F1 grid with Scuderia AlphaTauri?Briana and Nicole bring you a preview of this weekend’s Austrian Grand Prix! Briana breaks down the latest Pirelli tire graphic! Will we finally get a qualifying session without rain? This weekend the Red Bull Ring will feature a Spring Race which means a Spring Shootout! Will Max Verstappen top the podium in Spielberg? Will Sergio Perez be able to silence the haters? Can Williams Racing and Alex Albon stay in the points like they did at the Canadian Grand Prix?
Could we see an Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant F1 Team driver, Fernando Alonso or Lance Stroll on the podium? Will Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team remain in the fight?

This week is a rapid turnaround from the Monaco Grand Prix to the Spanish Grand Prix in the F1 world and there is a ton to discuss. Therefore, naturally, Nicole and Briana start with the most crucial event of the last week: The New Barbie Movie trailer that rocked our worlds. What does this have to do with Formula 1? Not much, but we wanted to share our joy with all of you.The F1 discussions start with our pure joy that the massive Mercedes’ (basically B-Spec) upgrades (that were brought to Monaco of all places) seemed to go well. Lewis Hamilton ended the race P4, but more importantly, he and the rest of the leadership at the Mercedes F1 team seemed positive leaving the weekend. Can we use last weekend’s performance as an indicator of what is to come for the Mercedes car?Nicole and Briana also spend time celebrating Estie Bestie’s (Esteban Ocon) fantastic drive to a podium place for Alpine. Nicole also breaks down Grid Walk’s first podium of the Monaco GP Race Weekend: Estie Bestie’s Best Moments of the Weekend. Who knew all the F1 Monaco GP needed was a helicopter? We did!

WOW - It was even better than we both expected! The wide shots provided a great view of the action and allowed the broadcast team to really tell a story. Briana also reveals an embarrassing secret.There was more flying this Formula 1 race weekend than just a helicopter. Carlos Sainz’s Ferrari and Lewis Hamilton’s newly upgraded Mercedes were both lifted into the air to reveal their floors to the rest of the grid in Free Practice after crashes. But the bigger news was Sergio Perez’s Red Bull F1 car floating in the sky for all other nine teams of the F1 grid to finally see what is responsible for Red Bull Racing’s extreme pace advantage. Briana breaks down what this means for the other nine Formula 1 teams.Ferrari is now a verb and I don’t think it has a good definition. Did the Aston Martin F1 team Ferrari this race? Did Aston Martin Ferrari more than Ferrari? Did Ferrari Ferrari this race? Did Alonso leave the Ferrari F1 team after many years of Ferrari-ing just to get Ferrari-ed by Aston Martin? We can’t have the F1 Monaco Grand Prix without a post-race weekend Gossip Grid. Nicole goes through many of the moments of the weekend where Formula 1 intersected with pop culture. This included a lot of celebrities attending with Red Bull Racing and making it very clear you are rooting for Lewis Hamilton.Lastly, Grid Walk turned its attention to the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona this weekend.

With the cancellation of the 2023 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, all F1 teams had to scrap all of the social media content that they had planned for the weekend.

What event did Williams Racing host? Was F1 TV always planning to introduce their new F1 Preview Show this weekend? Why doesn’t Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake utilize their charismatic drivers Zhou Guanyu and Valtteri Bottas for content like they should?Briana and Nicole continue their season-long battle of Formula 1 race predictions with the F1 Monaco Grand Prix!

Major props to F1 for making the right decision in a timely fashion. As much as we’d love to have a race weekend we’d prefer to prioritize safety.
The cancellation did cause Briana and Nicole to have to scrap a bunch of Imola content and lock it away in the Grid Walk vault!
