Meghan is joined by Deepti, Eboni and Donald to preview the Las Vegas GP! We discuss the track, the clusterf*ck that was last year's event, and how it also turned into one of the best races of the season.

Then we get into previewing this weekend and race, including who could be tapped to perform well (*cough*Mercedes*cough*). After, we predict our Zoomy & Gloomy Boys.

Skeet skeet, and vroom vroom!

Meghan is joined by Donald & André to discuss a bunch of F1 news that dropped recently. We start by discussing the Grand Prix Drivers' Association's ether-worthy statement to the President of the FIA.

After, we get into the sudden dismissal of race director Niels Wittich, Gabriel Bortoleto driving for Sauber/Audi in 2025, and our thoughts on the recently announced launch event at the O2 Arena ahead of 2025.

Oh and we also talk about Norwegian royalty, BBQ KitKats and Dua Lipa. Vroom vroom!

It was an absolutely chaotic SãoPaulo Grand Prix, there red flags, several spins, multiple crashes, and Alpines on the podium. Eboni, Deepti, Meghan and Donald join André to discuss whether it should have happened at all. We get into reasons for and against postponing the Grand Prix due to the weather.

Then we get into the race results themselves. We discuss more horrendous strategy fumbling from McLaren, Lando Norris being bad at starts (again, and again, and again, etc.), Oscar Piastri waving the white flag, and Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon being besties once more.

After, we get into giving Max Verstappen his praise. André is annoyed that Max frequently chooses to whine rather than display his driving talent. We also laugh at Lance Stroll intentionally beaching himself on the formation lap, and ask what message he might be trying to send? And of course we deliver our Zoomy & Gloomy Boys of the weekend.

Give us a listen, and vroom vroom!

It's a third consecutive race week, it's Brazil, it's Interlagos, and it's another Sprint race! Eboni and Meghan join André to review some of the history of the track and its unique characteristics. Also, Weathergirl Meghan makes an appearance to give us an important warning.

Then we dive into what this race could mean for teams up and down the grid. From Max's shamelessness to Mercedes lagging behind to Franco Colapinto calling his shot, we get into who needs to lock in, then predict our Zoomy & Gloomy Boys of the weekend.

Give us a listen, and vroom vroom!

Deepti, Meghan, Kyle and Donald join André to recap a mega eventful Mexico Grand Prix!

Max Verstappen scrapped with Lando Norris and another Ferrari ope'd right on by to take advantage. We discuss Max finally receiving penalties for his chaotic defending, whether Norris and McLaren finally understand who/what they're up against (and if it's too late), what's happened to Mercedes, and the whereabouts of Oscar Piastri.

We also discuss our funniest radio calls, both Red Bull teams having bad days, Fernando Alonso clocking out early in his 400th race (which maintained a weird pattern), double points for Haas, plus our Zoomy & Gloomy boys.

Give us a listen, and vroom vroom!

Deepti, Eboni and Donald join André to preview the Mexico Grand Prix! We dive into the history of the track, the characteristics that make it uniquely challenging, and what happened in the race last year.

Then we get into the state of the driver's and constructor's championships, ask if Mercedes can bounce back, if Oscar wants to show up and actually start helping Lando, and whether Checo can perform in what's likely to be his last home race in a Red Bull.

After, we predict our Zoomy & Gloomy Boys of the race. André has an unfortunate spoiler alert for Mexico fans, while rookies are shown some love. Please give us a listen, and vroom vroom!

Deepti, Kyle and Donald join André to review an eventful U.S. Grand Prix in Austin! Ferrari went 1, 2 but it was the battle just below them that stole the focus, with the FIA deciding to once again get involved to the benefit of Max Verstappen and Red Bull.

We discuss the decision and how the FIA backed themselves into a corner of inconsistencies. We also discuss Ferrari's dominant day (perhaps weekend). We also laugh about Liam Lawson making Fernando Alonso yell at clouds, Franco Colapinto being worried about his fastest lap and the environment, Carlos Sainz's radio adventures, and Mercedes' no good very bad weekend.

We also divulge our Zoomy and Gloomy boys of the weekend, and review some of the funny social media clips we saw over the past few days, including Jenson Button's Jim Halpert moment about Danica Patrick.

Give us a listen! Oh, and vroom vroom.

After another three week break it's finally an F1 race weekend! Teams and drivers are heading to Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX for not only a Grand Prix, but also one of three remaining Sprint races.

Eboni and Donal join André to discuss whether McLaren is really ready to make it a fight for the 2024 Driver's Championship. We discuss what they have to do, and how Oscar needs to actually start helping.

Ferrari are reportedly bringing their final update package of the year, so we discuss how they might fare at a track in which Charles Leclerc holds the single lap record. We also look at Mercedes' 'we're so back, it's so over' season and chat about whether their car's performance might leap above Red Bull's as well.

We also look further down the grid to talk about a tough weekend coming up for Liam Lawson in a VCARB, what to expect from Haas' home race, and whether Nico Hülkenberg will pop up in a Q3 again.

Then, predictions! We select our race winners for the Sprint and Grand Prix, our Zoomy Boy of the Day, and the Gloomy Boy of the Day (which devolved into a sad chat about Yuki Tsunoda).

Give us a listen! Oh, and vroom vroom.
