F1 Belgian GP: From Hero to Zero
07/29/24 • 51 min
We all lie about our weight from time to time.....
In this episode, we break down the Belgian Grand Prix, a race filled with contrasting strategies and dramatic twists. We dive into George Russell's seemingly epic victory, only to be disqualified in controversial scenes. Was the race interesting or boring? We debate the merits and drawbacks of the competing strategies at play.
We also discuss whether the DRS zone reduction made the racing better or worse. Lewis Hamilton's much-improved form is a highlight, while Checo Perez's dismal performance might mark his last race for Red Bull as he unceremoniously fell through the field.
Things get spicy as we debate the top five drivers and whether George Russell should be the driver of the day. Looking ahead, we discuss if Mercedes are getting cold feet on an immediate singing of F2 young gun, Kimi Antonelli, and ponder how Carlos Sainz could fill a need for them in 2025. Join us for all that and more on this weeks episode!
