In this episode, we dive into the thrilling Italian Grand Prix, where Charles Leclerc and Ferrari's bold strategy secured a memorable victory at Monza. Despite having the fastest car on the grid, McLaren once again failed to convert their pace into a win, leaving them to rue another missed opportunity. With Max Verstappen struggling, we discuss the shrinking title lead with just 8 races to go and debate whether McLaren should consider implementing team orders at this critical stage.
We also break down Oscar Piastri's aggressive pass on Lando Norris, Kevin Magnussen's questionable penalties, and Daniel Ricciardo's unfortunate, and very real, mirror problems that cost him a chance at valuable points. Plus, we touch on Williams' improved form and the persistent British bias in the commentary. Finally, we explore James Vowles' puzzling comments about Mick Schumacher and look ahead to the upcoming race in Azerbaijan, where the championship battle promises to intensify even further.
Tune in for all this and more as we continue to follow this thrilling season!
