Missed Apex Formula 1 Podcast

In a very special Behind the Barriers, Trumpets sits down with co-host and friend of the show Dr Campbell Waddell, CEO at TrackWalk and MD at R3Ltd, for a gripping conversation about how his PhD on motorsport surfaces wound up taking him to F1 circuits across the globe the past 20 years. From tyres and asphalt to what happens when an F1 driver hits you in the face with a door, no stone is left unturned as once again we sneak behind the barriers in this, the latest episode of Missed Apex Podcast! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The panel digs into Rwanda’s proposed Formula 1 project, what stage the plans are actually at and whether the race is likely to happen at all. Plus Christian Horner’s latest media tour, Haas, Colapinto, Red Bull and McLaren, power-unit politics, and plenty of listener reckons. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Spanners and the team pick apart a Singapore Grand Prix that promised plenty but delivered rather less. We get into the lack of overtaking, the strategic stalemate, the incidents and stewarding, Max and GP somehow communicating without really communicating, and what the weekend tells us about the competitive order heading into the next round. Plus your listener reckons and Peter Shillcock takes Comment of the Week with perhaps the most accurate race review of all: “Thanks MAP terrible race, great podcast.”

Spanners reacts to a strange Saturday in Singapore, starting with a part-wet sprint that somehow still became processional. We get into Russell’s crash, Hamilton’s pace and aggressive restart, Norris and Piastri making contact, and a packed post-race stewards schedule. Then qualifying brings more twists: Aston Martin and Albon struggle, both Racing Bulls reach Q3, Hamilton looks rapid before wasting two big chances, Leclerc appears from nowhere, and Verstappen delivers again.
