The Motorsport REView - 2025 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Review

This is it - 23 F1 weekends have been and gone, and it all comes down to 1 final Grand Prix. Oscar Piastri, Max Verstappen, Lando Norris. Only 1 of them would be crowned the 2025 F1 Drivers Champion, and separating each from that finding out that destiny was 58 laps the Yas Marina circuit. There were countless permutations and scenarios, but ultimately they knew their tasks. For Piastri and Verstappen, they HAD to win the race. For Norris, he had to be on the podium.What followed probably won't be remembered as the greatest Grand Prix to have ever graced the sport, however it was tense from the moment the lights went out, to the moment they passed the chequered flag. Verstappen did everything that he could, Piastri rolled the dice with an alternate strategy, but it was Lando Norris that got the job done. But it was far from easy as he was chased throughout by a determined Charles Leclerc, trying somehow to wrestle just 1 more podium visit from the mightily disappointing SF-25.Joining Perry to discuss the concluding Grand Prix of he 2025 season, Tom Cairns and Corrinne Bowers give their verdicts on expectations going into the showdown, and what we witnessed within it.As discussed towards the end of the episode, a wonderful young girl called Alayah has turned adversity in her own life and turned it into a strength to help others. She has spent her spare time to make "Foot Doon Lando" bracelets that she has been selling to raise money for Heel and Toe Charity, a Children's charity in the North East of England raising money to help children with cerebral palsy and other physical disabilities. Somehow, some disgusting people have posted some vile comments and messages simply for being a Lando Norris fan.Please show some love (and I'm sorry that I haven't already) if you can and remind Alayah that the F1 community has a lot of decent members too! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/146857388363https://www.instagram.com/walk_with_alayah/https://www.threads.com/@lynseystorey92https://heelandtoe.org.uk/https://www.threads.com/@heeltoecharityIf you enjoy what we do then please let us know - all of our social media links are below.
