Six-time IndyCar race winner, James Hinchcliffe, and F1 TV’s lead presenter, Laura Winter, join Tom Clarkson in the Baku paddock to dissect a chaotic Azerbaijan Grand Prix weekend on the latest episode of F1 Nation.
Max Verstappen’s fourth win of the season means he’s now 69 points behind championship leader Oscar Piastri.
With seven races and three Sprints left, is the four-time World Champion back in the title fight? Red Bull Technical Director Pierre Wache shares his thoughts and explains how the team have transformed their performance since the summer break.
With Piastri crashing out on Lap 1 and Lando Norris only finishing P7, how big a missed opportunity was this weekend for Norris to close the gap to his title rival? And was McLaren’s difficult weekend a ‘hangover’ from their team orders in Monza?
You’ll also hear reaction from a very happy Carlos Sainz, after he scored his first podium for Williams with a perfectly executed race to P3.
Tom, Laura and Hinch also discuss a much better weekend for Mercedes duo George Russell and Kimi Antonelli, a very important battle between Liam Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda, and if Lewis Hamilton is starting to ‘find his groove’ despite a weekend to forget for Ferrari.
