Gazoo Racing: From Nürburgring Humbling to Haas F1 Power Move
Toyota Gazoo Racing didn’t start with trophies… it started with getting humbled at the Nürburgring.This week, Sam (@sentiersilvana / Silvana’s Garage) drags Dom (@djdomcook) into an educational deep dive on one of motorsport’s most fascinating glow-ups: how Akio Toyoda went from an “unofficial” Nürburgring 24H entry in a 2JZ-powered Mk4 Supra to building a philosophy-driven performance empire — and ultimately plotting a return to Formula 1 through Haas.We break down the early GR days (including the Altezza training hack), the “Ford v Ferrari” energy moment that lit the fuse, and the bittersweet chapter around master test driver Hiromu Naruse. Then we hit the LFA: the Yamaha-tuned masterpiece that sounds like a V10 angel and cost Toyota an absolute fortune.And just when you think it’s all nostalgia… we fast-forward to the modern move: Toyota Gazoo Racing’s growing involvement with Haas — technical support, testing programs, aero/chassis focus — and why this “lower risk” strategy could be the smartest long game in the paddock.Drop in, learn something, and argue with us in the comments: is this the beginning of Toyota’s full works return?🎧 Listen on all platforms: @boxboxboxpod 📸 Follow us: Instagram | TikTok | Threads | YouTube 🛎️ Subscribe + leave us a review – it really helps!

2026 F1 Liveries Ranked + Pre-Season Predictions + Merc “Loophole?”
Episode TWO, baby — and we’re coming in hot (Danish chicken levels of fuel). This week on Box Box Box, we’re doing what the internet was built for: judging the 2026 F1 liveries like our lives depend on it.We go team-by-team through all 11 liveries, handing out flowers, throwing shade, and dropping some properly controversial takes. Mercedes? The Adidas stripes have us in a chokehold — “best-looking car of 2026” energy. Red Bull? That blue chrome is giving early-era vibes and we hate how much we rate it. Ferrari? Looks better… but we cannot unsee Hamilton’s yellow helmet as a fried egg / Creme Egg situation. Plus: Audi’s minimalist “of course it’s Audi” design, Haas embracing the GR era, and Williams leaning into the Duracell battery meme like absolute legends.Then we switch lanes into the spicy stuff: Mercedes’ mysterious motor manipulation (cold testing vs race temps 👀), F1 calendar chaos (Spa vs Barcelona rotation?!), and the “Hamilton/Alonso retirement” chat.Finally, it’s prediction time: George Russell vs Charles Leclerc for WDC, McLaren vs Mercedes for constructors — with actual stakes: F1 Arcade bar tab + brunch, and the big one… a future race ticket bet.🎧 Listen on all platforms: @boxboxboxpod 📸 Follow us: Instagram | TikTok | Threads | YouTube 🛎️ Subscribe + leave us a review – it really helps!
