Join host Tom Horrox with panelists George Howson and Tom Downey as we dive into the mid-season break and take stock of the 2025 Formula 1 season so far.

In this episode, the team debates the ultimate yardstick in F1 — how drivers stack up against their own teammates. We give our take on who’s done the best job in the garage battles, from dominant title contenders to surprise midfield heroes. Who’s quietly over delivered? And who’s desperately hoping the second half of the season brings a reset button?

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Grid Talk episode without some passion: this week it’s Tom Downey’s turn to let loose on Alpine, while George provides his own brand of sharp analysis (and occasional disbelief).
All that plus a full grid rundown as the season pauses for breath before the run-in.

Join host Tom Horrox with panelists George Howson, Dev Tyagi, and Owain Medford as the team breaks down a strategic masterclass at the Hungarian Grand Prix, where redemption arcs, rising stars, and a much needed victory took centre stage.

Aston Martin finally delivered, bringing home a hefty points haul and showing a flash of the form finally. Liam Lawson got one over on Verstappen, and Gabriel Bortoleto continued his streak of impressive drives—quietly but confidently climbing the ranks.

Meanwhile, McLaren stole the show, claiming their 200th Grand Prix victory with a commanding performance that has serious championship implications.

Expect full team-by-team breakdowns, Driver of the Day debates, and just the right amount of Alpine.
