2026 F1 Testing Diaries

from FORMATION: A Formula 1 PODCAST Hosted by Elle and Natalie

Start the season with the stories that actually matter. In this episode of the Formation F1 Podcast, Elle & Nat break down everything we learned from pre-season testing at Bahrain International Circuit and what it really means for the opening races of the Formula 1 season. We dive into why Scuderia Ferrari topped the headlines, how quietly strong Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team and Oracle Red Bull Racing looked, and why McLaren F1 Team might be the dark horse heading into the first race. We also unpack: the growing conversation around race starts and launch performance which teams genuinely look ready for race weekends who leaves Bahrain with confidence… and who leaves with serious question marks If you want a clear, honest and fan-focused breakdown of F1 testing, beyond lap times and headlines... this episode is for you. 🎙 Hosted by two Aussie women covering the intersection of Formula 1, culture and race-week stories. #F1 #Formula1 #F1Testing #BahrainTesting #F1Podcast #WomenInMotorsport #FormationF1Podcast #F1News #F1Analysis
