  • Belgium GP - Hamilton MASTERCLASS At Spa!
    Jul 30 2025

    Buckle up for a drenched and dramatic Belgian Grand Prix as David breaks down a wet and wild weekend at Spa — where Lewis Hamilton rose from the pit lane to deliver a race-day clinic. Oscar Piastri nailed his restart, Alex Albon turned defence into an art form, and Ferrari somehow got a strategy right (yes, really).


    Meanwhile, Lando Norris had another weekend to forget, with costly errors and coaching overload casting doubt on his title credentials. Skin asks all the right questions — from rolling starts to battery clipping to why tire degradation sounds like falling off a cliff. Plus, we hand out Guru of the Week and crown this round’s Formula Fool.


    It’s slippery, it’s savage, and it’s Spa. Let’s get foolish.

  • British GP – NICO HÜLKENBERG’S FIRST PODIUM
    Jul 10 2025

    This week, the unthinkable finally happened: Nico Hülkenberg stood on a Formula 1 podium… and the entire motorsport world wept with joy. In his 239th race, starting from P19, the Hulk pulled off a strategic masterclass to secure P3 at Silverstone and we break down every glorious detail.


    Elsewhere, Lando Norris won in front of the home crowd (with a little help from the stewards), Oscar got hit with a harsh penalty (and hit back with some press conference sass), and Max had one of his weirdest weekends in a while. Plus: Ferrari confusion, Mercedes misery, and some truly iconic Skin Hot Takes, including whether Nico is actually the greatest driver of all time.


    We also hand out our Hero and Fool of the Day, question the FIA’s penalty logic, and try to figure out how the hell Lance Stroll went from P4 to P7 in two laps.

  • Austrian GP – McLaren Master Class
    Jul 3 2025

    This week, David and Skin break down a blockbuster Austrian Grand Prix that saw McLaren deliver a dominant 1-2 finish – and maybe Lando’s best race of the year. From Norris securing the biggest pole gap of the season to Piastri’s slick move on Leclerc, it was a weekend that underlined the papaya resurgence.


    We unpack how Liam Lawson embarrassed the Red Bulls on their home turf, why Ferrari looked sharper compared to Canada, and what on earth happened to Williams after such a promising start. Skin’s Hot Takes cover everything from Carlos Sainz’s fiery brake drama to Antonelli’s bowling ball impression – and yes, there’s a story about a Supra in second gear.


    Plus: Kick Sauber’s sensational points haul, Christian Horner’s unforgettable exhaust pipe quote, and our picks for Driver of the Day and the biggest letdown.
