Austin Grand Prix: Max vs. Lando - Who's to Blame

In this episode, we recap an eventful Austin Grand Prix where Charles Leclerc took the win. We discuss whether Leclerc is now a driver of the season contender and his battle for second in the drivers' championship. We also dive into the Max Verstappen vs. Lando Norris incident—who was in the right, or did the regulations get in the way? With Norris failing to win, is his title battle over? Next, we examine Mercedes' struggles as Hamilton faced issues with upgrades unsettling his car, mirrored by Russell, who delivered a stellar performance moving from the pits to 6th. We compare this to Perez’s underwhelming drive, only managing to go from 11th to 7th in a superior Red Bull. Plus, we talk about Liam Lawson's impressive return, special one-off liveries, and the Haas-Toyota deal. Make sure to leave us a review and let us know your thoughts!
