Missed Apex Formula 1 Podcast

Spanners is joined by Jonathan Simon to review a chaotic Bahrain Grand Prix shaped by rain, software gremlins, tyre gambles and a painfully long safety-car period. They dig into Ferrari’s wet-weather calls, the developing Mercedes tension between Russell and Antonelli, Pirelli’s conservative tyre choices, Verstappen’s pace, Lawson’s fighting drive and the battles that came alive late on. Plus your listener reckons.

Spanners reacts to qualifying for the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia. Lewis Hamilton suddenly looks happy and quick, Mercedes struggle in the heat, Red Bull appear to have serious pace, and Kimi Antonelli has a run-in with track limits. We also get into Russell’s difficult session, Bortoleto reaching Q3, Ferrari intrigue, Racing Bulls teamwork, and what all of this might mean for Sunday. Plus your listener reckons Hosted on Acast.

F1 returns to Sepang for the unusual Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia, and Jonathan Simon and Matt Trumpets break down everything that could make the weekend unpredictable. They look at the extreme heat, possible thunderstorms, abrasive and ageing track surface, tyre degradation and why Sepang could expose very different strengths across the grid.
There’s also a look at Mercedes’ major upgrade package, Ferrari’s straight-line speed concerns and the mounting speculation around Fred Vasseur and Christian Horner. The pair discuss the fallout from Lando Norris and Franco Colapinto’s latest clash before turning to the driver market, where Esteban Ocon’s Haas exit raises questions about his route back onto the F1 grid and the likely arrival of Rafael Câmara alongside Ollie Bearman.
Plus, plenty of nostalgia for one of Formula One’s best-loved circuits and some classic Malaysian Grand Prix moments.

George Russell looked in complete control at the front, while Verstappen and Hadjar produced an increasingly awkward Red Bull team dynamic. We dig into McLaren’s lack of pace, Piastri throwing away a potential podium, Ferrari’s straight-line struggles, Lindblad and Lawson’s clash, the chaotic safety-car restart and a final-lap dash that suddenly brought the race back to life.
