EP 133 - Baku

from The Monkey Seat - Motorsport Podcast · host Tom Horrox

Tom and Karl tackle the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, a race that once again proved the streets of Baku are as brutal as Karl’s hangovers and as unpredictable as Tom’s WiFi. Safety cars, carbon fibre confetti, and more crashes than a Windows 95 PC – and somehow, it still wasn’t the weirdest weekend they’ve covered.The lads hand out their Driver of the Day awards (one probably makes sense, the other probably doesn’t) and crown the inevitable Dick of the Day – because on the streets of Baku, someone always earns it.Expect wild tangents, bold-but-terrible predictions, and more questionable takes than a Red Bull PR statement. As usual, it’s less “analysis” and more “two blokes in verbal bumper cars.”If you actually want serious F1 coverage, go listen to Grid Talk. But if you’re here for bad jokes, chaos, and laughter echoing down the long Baku straight, you’ve found your pit stop.Catch Tom and Karl attempting professionalism on the Grid Talk Podcast @gridtalkuk across all socials.For real journalism, head to f1chronicle.com, and for the full Grid Talk fix, hit linktr.ee/gridtalkuk.You can find The Monkey Seat on Spotify, Apple Music, Pocket Casts, YouTube, Anchor, Castbox, Radio Public, TuneIn, Breaker — or just shout “STROLL INTO THE WALL” three times and we’ll appear.
