Episode 24: Abu Dhabi (2024)

Dec 08 2024 52 mins

Is lying about what a steward said a finable offence if it includes swearing? Do you have the strategic planning of perez to play chicken with your boss? It was the last race of the season. It wasn’t dramatic. We have feelings about one driver who gave up real early. We then had some feelings about Max’s announcement, and what it might mean! As always feedback is always welco

Episode 23: Qatar (2024)

Dec 01 2024 59 mins

Do you ever feel like you need to make up for all your bad performance at the end of the year to justify your existence at your job? Do you ever just dust off some old tools just to remember what it feels like to be powerful again? There was some racing. There were some old faces we’ve not seen in over 10 years in Formula 1. And we’re unsure about the lobbying that was going o

Episode 22: Las Vegas (2024)

Nov 24 2024 73 mins

Would you gamble on a one stop strategy? Would you go all in or fold on your championship chances? We rolled the dice this week and jabbered on about a race that was both not bad, but also forgettable in so many ways. We also discussed and hypothesised about the rivalry between Ferrari drivers, why Perez made certain choices, and questioned live, the universe, and everything. As

Episode 21: Safety Second (Brazil 2024)

Nov 03 2024 84 mins

How much does it cost to buy off an FIA race steward? Did McLaren out Ferrari Ferrari? It was Brazil this week, and we went on very long because the race went on very long. There were safety issues to talk about. Community Service not being given out. A good ol’ conspiracy theory for good measure! As always feedback is always welcome at [email protected] -- we even hav

Episode 20: Inconsistent (Mexico 2024)

Oct 27 2024 64 mins

Is Michael Masi back? Do you need an overrated, washed up race driver? If so, call Sergio Perez! We’re back — shocker! — for the race that expresses its unique culture in F1 terms best: Mexico! It was an interesting race, where we discuss the morals of sport regulations and wonder what it takes to show up Sergio Perez! As always feedback is always welcome at feedback@tinfoil

Episode 19: Austin (2024)

Oct 20 2024 72 mins

How far will F1 go with cultural appropriation for the brraaaaaannnd? Does Lando actually want to win the title? You know, we’d forgotten what F1 was… WHO ARE WE KIDDING! We drone on for way too long about lots of news in F1 before we get into the Austin Grand Prix — the best F1 race in America. As always feedback is always welcome at [email protected] -- we even h

Did you ever ruin something trying to make it better? [REDACTED BY THE FIA] This week, we sling some words around Singapore.

Episode 16: Monza 2024

Sep 01 2024 64 mins

Can we bring more spice than James Vowels? What deal with the devil would you make as a Ferrari driver? The monkey paw held up its end of the bargain delivering Charles what he wanted at a race that starts with MON. Racing was in Italy at the Temple of speed, where people lost their jobs, people got new jobs, and there was a lot of underperforming going on. As always feedback i

Episode 15: Allegedly (Netherlands 2024)

Did Disney put the hit out on Horner? Who is Lando racing? There was a break. Lots happened. There was a race — in The Netherlands! Less happened there.
