from 2 Soft Compounds · host Poddworx Dubai

A five-week break, a sprint weekend, and suddenly the 2025 F1 season feels very different.

Ferrari arrives with huge updates, McLaren talks about effectively building a new car across two races, while Aston Martin’s struggles are becoming impossible to ignore. They also unpack Verstappen’s first-lap 360 and why moments like that are often more skill than luck.Last but not least Rick digs into George Russell’s difficult weekend alongside Antonelli’s rise, Ferrari’s tyre headaches and penalties, plus the inevitable driver-market rumours that follow a chaotic race weekend. Production Credits:Presented by: Rick Houghton & Damien ReidStudio Engineer & Editor: Ben DoverExecutive Producer: Ian Carless Produced by: Poddworx Dubai
