  • Where's F1's back-up plan for Bahrain and Saudi?

    Where's F1's back-up plan for Bahrain and Saudi?
    Mar 19 2026

    Now the Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grands Prix are cancelled because of the war in the Middle East, we've been getting lots of questions: Why was there no back-up plan to replace the races? Who does the five-week break benefit? What will the drivers get up to?

    Plus, we've all seen the viral photo of the Mercedes reunion on Toto Wolff's plane back from China, so DC lifts the curtain on F1's private jets. And Naomi breaks into song after a question from pop star Niall Horan.

  • Did Kimi Antonelli just become a problem for George Russell?

    Did Kimi Antonelli just become a problem for George Russell?
    Mar 16 2026

    Join us for our race reaction as Kimi Antonelli gets his first ever F1 victory! At 19 he’s the second youngest driver in history to win a Grand Prix. Is it gloves off now at Mercedes?

    How about that wheel to wheel racing for the Ferraris in China - Lewis Hamilton with his first ever podium for the Reds. Was that a win for the new regulations?

    And definitely a weekend to forget for last year’s top three drivers, Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen. How must they be feeling?
