• The rookie watch: Behrmann’s P4 for Haas, a breakout moment or flash in the pan?
• Safety under the spotlight: an incident involving Liam Lawson and a marshal, the subsequent FIA review, and how risk management in F1 isn’t just backstage.
• And of course our new segment: F1 Meme of the Week (because your DMs are overflowing with them and we’re done ignoring them).

We're back with an absolute Texas-sized banger of an episode – COTA did not disappoint 🇺🇸💥

From the moment the lights went out, it was all-out carnage at Turn 1. The McLarens both wiped in the sprint? Hülkenberg, we’re looking at you. Did Red Bull pay for that move? 🤔

We dive into the lasagna tactics of Ferrari, Red Bull’s spicy new floor, and Max Verstappen’s unstoppable form—even while moaning on team radio about everything and everyone (track limits? again?). But don’t worry, we’re not letting McLaren off the hook—Norris is rising, Piastri’s in his own head, and it's starting to show. 👀

Plus:

• Verstappen’s title charge gets real 🏆
• Lewis is back in cowboy mode 🤠
• Apple TV steals F1 from ESPN 🍎📺
• The Austin vibes? Immaculate. BBQ, big hats, and big drama.

And yes, Ferrari are now officially doing lasagna tactics. Don’t ask, just listen.

🎧 Tap in for laughs, hot takes, and more chaos than the Turn 1 pileup. “It’s not just racing… it’s F1 at COTA, baby!”

Box Box Box is BACK! After a mid-season double DNS (Did Not Show), Sam and Dom return with zero chill and maximum chaos, diving straight into Baku and Singapore — two races packed with drama, DNFs, and digmatization?!

We’re talking Verstappen’s Baku Grand Slam, Russell’s Singapore redemption, and that suspicious McLaren favoritism 👀. Is Piastri getting snubbed? Why is Lando always protected? And how does “Team Papaya” celebrate a championship while their driver of the season (Oscar) gets left out of the party?

We also cover:

Helmut Marko’s potential exit and Red Bull’s rebuild

Cadillac’s hilariously American team name reveal

Pierre Gasly’s disappearing act

Hamilton's brake-less beast mode in Singapore

Radio meltdowns, meme moments, and Max moaning (again)

It's everything you missed — with jokes, tangents, and hot takes you didn’t know you needed.

⚠️ Quote of the episode: “McLaren spent all this money on Lando… but Oscar’s the one leading the damn championship.”

Tap in, subscribe, and let’s get racing again.

Buckle up because Monza delivered 🍿 From Verstappen’s historic Italian double to McLaren’s team orders drama, the Temple of Speed gave us tension, penalties, and plenty of memes.

Dom and Sentio break down all the action from the Italian GP: 🏆 Verstappen’s third win of the season and another Monza masterclass 📈 Piastri vs. Norris heats up—are McLaren playing favourites? 👀 Bortoletto & Hajar show F2 grads are HERE to fight 🔧 Alonso’s suspension failure, penalty chaos & radio gold from Sainz 🏁 Plus: Cadillac's simulated debut and what we’re expecting from Baku

There's genuine chaos in the midfield, Max is out for blood, and the McLaren garage looks like a PR warzone. If Monza was the appetizer, Baku’s about to be the full meal.

Quote of the episode? “No risk. Full push.” – Max Verstappen, probably to the horror of his engineer.

Hit play and get stuck in.

Rain, rage, and racing chaos—Zandvoort did not disappoint! The boys are back to break down a wild Dutch GP weekend that had EVERYTHING: Oscar Piastri pulling off his first-ever Grand Slam 🏆, Lando Norris suffering a devastating DNF 😢, and Ferrari? Well… they Ferrari’d again. Double DNF before halfway. Monza prep = CANCELLED.

Dom and [Host Name] relive the drama from Silverstone to the pit lane. Isaac Hadjar stunned the Orange Army with his first podium (let's go, rookie 🚀), and George Russell kept things tidy with another P4. Also—can we talk about that Antonelli-Leclerc crash and the chaos it unleashed?

They go deep on Hamilton's penalty, the latest silly season shockers (Perez & Bottas to Cadillac?!), and why Racing Bulls are quietly cooking. Plus, FP1-FP3 breakdowns, tire talk, and whether Verstappen is still a championship threat (spoiler: nope).

All that, plus memes, predictions for Monza, and some delicious Monster energy takes.

🎙️ It’s episode 31. It’s boxboxbox. Let’s get into it.

"If you're not going for a gap, are you even racing?"

Box Box Box is BACK after the summer shutdown — and F1 wasted no time serving up chaos. Dom and Sam return with the biggest bombshell of the season: Cadillac confirming Valtteri Bottas and Sergio Perez as their 2026 drivers. Yep, two of the grid’s most experienced #2s are leading America’s newest F1 squad.

We dive deep into: 🏎️ The Cadillac lineup — smart experience or too safe? 🏁 Bottas & Perez career spotlights (aka Captain Mustache & The Smooth Operator’s rival). 🔮 Post-shutdown predictions — who’s about to rise, who’s about to break? 📉 Famous mid-season collapses: Vettel, Leclerc, Ricciardo, and Red Bull déjà vu. 🌧️ Dutch GP preview — Max under pressure at home, McLaren’s title fight, and who thrives if it rains.

Plus: Dom finds Lance Stroll merch at Costco, Toto’s taking a step back at Mercedes, and we’re asking the big question — could McLaren’s harmony explode between Oscar and Lando?

It’s high-energy, it’s unfiltered, and it’s F1 chaos at its finest.
