Edd Straw is joined by Jon Noble and Josh Suttill, both in Baku, to dissect all the big talking points from the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, including Oscar Piastri's troubled weekend - and Lando Norris's failure to capitalise on it.

There's also discussion about whether Max Verstappen's superb form will bring the Red Bull driver back into the title picture, plus why Ferrari's Friday promise vanished so quickly.

Carlos Sainz's superb podium and equally strong showings by George Russell, Kimi Antonelli and Liam Lawson are also mulled over, while Yuki Tsunoda's form is just one of the topics discussed in our regular questions section.

We dissect Carlos Sainz’s troubled first season for Williams in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.

Special guest Nate Saunders, from ESPN, joins Jon Noble and Edd Straw to explain Sainz’s lack of results, and why Williams isn’t losing faith in its big-money signing.

We also discuss Alex Albon’s strong form and the role that’s playing, as well as the limitations Williams is battling.

We also tackle the recent review that led to Sainz’s Zandvoort penalty being reclassified as a racing incident and what that tells us about the stewarding process.

Finally, we look ahead to the Azerbaijan and discuss Max Verstappen and Red Bull’s hopes of repeating the Monza victory and how the return of the C6 Pirelli tyre could impact the weekend.
