Martin Brundle must be Stopped

from Ahead At The Apex Hosted by Josh and Tim

There may not be much racing going on at the moment but that hasn't stopped certain figures in positions of power or influence getting involved in the discussions surrounding how two of the biggest motorsports in the world should be governed. First up is F1, where perhaps the most famous voice of F1 in the modern era, Martin Brundle, has been making some noise about Max Verstappen retiring. Then we have the FIA, who are busy frantically making changes to their precious 2026 regulations following the horrible crash in Japan for Haas' Oliver Bearman. As if that wasn't enough, the FIM are currently under media scrutiny for the "new" track surface at the Brazilian GP that began to disintegrate on the first day of the weekend. It just isn't good enough, and we're going to have a good moan. In this week's episode we discuss: Brundle's Blunders: Martin's been making some noises about Verstappen and Norris, but his opinions don't seem to be consistent. Max In or Out: Will this be the final season for Max Verstappen, has he got one more left in him or is GT racing drawing him away? Where did the Track Go?: Why was the track surface such a nightmare at the Brazilian GP and can we trust the FIM to introduce a street circuit? Battery Problems: F1's 2026 regulations haven't had a week without scrutiny, Bearman's crash should be enough to raise some red flag.
