  • Overpriced Lights, Mediocre Racing: Is Vegas Ruining F1?
    Nov 20 2024

    The Las Vegas Grand Prix is here, and it’s everything F1 fans hoped for: absurdly overpriced tickets, a track designed for Instagram rather than racing, and just enough glitz to distract from the chaos. Join Drew, Walker and Ed as they dive into everything you need to know about F1’s big Vegas gamble:

    • Max Verstappen’s Title Decider: Can Lando Norris delay Max’s inevitable fourth championship win, or is this just a victory parade with extra neon?

    • Constructors' Showdown: McLaren leads Ferrari and Red Bull in a heated race for the title. Can upgrades, strategy, or sheer luck change the game?

    • Driver Market Shake-Ups: Bottas and Zhou are out for 2025, Colapinto faces his final races at Williams, and Red Bull still can’t decide on Yuki Tsunoda’s teammate. Who’s in, who’s out, and who cares?

    • New Race Director Drama: Niels Wittich is gone, Rui Marques is in. Will this make a difference, or is it just more F1 politics?

    • Vegas Spectacle or Cash Grab?: Long straights, tight corners, and celebrity appearances galore—are we here for the racing or the Instagram reels?

    This episode breaks down the racing, the drama, and whether F1’s newest race is just a glitzy distraction. If you’re ready for spicy takes and sarcastic banter, this one’s for you.

    In this week’s F1 True North Podcast, we’re diving into one of the most thrilling Brazilian Grands Prix in recent memory. Max Verstappen delivered a performance for the ages, carving through the field from P17 to take the win in challenging wet conditions, reasserting his dominance with a 62-point lead. Was this Verstappen’s greatest drive ever?

With unpredictable weather, red flags, and bold tire strategies, this was a race all about adaptability—who played their cards right, and who missed their shot?

    Our "Tech Talk" segment with Ed makes a return, where he dives into the stats behind Verstappen's incredible recovery drive and analyzes the potential for Lando Norris to still mount a challenge in the Drivers’ Championship.Plus, we’re talking all things drama: the wet-track struggles, jaw-dropping overtakes, and controversial penalties. Nico Hulkenberg’s disqualification for outside assistance added fuel to the fire, raising questions on stewarding consistency.
