Summary

In this episode, Brady recounts his homework assignment and gets us familiar with the Shanghai track and how it was to drive in the simulator. We also spend time discussing Fernando Alonso's surprise move to sign a contract extension with Aston Martin and Andretti continuing to push forward with their bid to join the grid by opening a facility in Silverstone. Lots of questions going into the first sprint weekend of the season - especially at a track that has not been visited since 2019. Having only one practice session before sprint qualifying and the chance for weather to play a role, we might be in for a real treat this weekend where teams have to figure it out on-the-fly. Our predictions... Tom: Top 5 (VER, LEC, SAI, NOR, RUS) | Bottom 5 (OCO, GAS, ZHO, SAR, STR) | 3-pointer (one of the top 5 drivers in the championship will score zero points in the Sunday race) John: Top 5 (VER, PER, SAI, LEC, ALO) | Bottom 5 (OCO, GAS, BOT, SAR, RIC) | 3-pointer (ZHO points) Brady: Top 5 (VER, PER, SAI, LEC, NOR) | Bottom 5 (OCO, GAS, ZHO, SAR, RIC) | 3-pointer (1+ front wing changes on Sunday)  Like and subscribe to get notifications on new episodes!
