from Hard Compound, an American Take on Formula 1 · host Team Hard Compound
We are back. A European-enforced 4-week summer vacation is finally over and F1 returns. Join Patrick and Brian on the Hard Compound for our analysis of the Dutch Grand Prix and our thoughts on why F1 becoming more Americanized is better for the sport. Oscar Piastri's grand slam gets overshadowed by Lando Norris's DNF. Is the WDC championship now over? How Lewis Hamilton at Ferrari turned out as bad as George Lucas bringing back Star Wars. Sorry, but Max Verstappen having 95% of Red Bull's points is an indictment on Yuki Tsunoda. Why FIA (and Liberty Media) copying the NFL model is great for revenues and great for fans. F1 is hard, especially on young drivers. We rate the rookies. Why Cadillac must be our new favorite team, and why Patrick has them on a short leash. Plus, our praise for Haas team principal, Ayao Komatsu. Send us Fan MailAnd as always, thank you for listening to everybody's most beloved father and son F1 podcast!
