Formula 1’s brand-new Madring circuit finally arrived… and unfortunately, the racing was about as exciting as we feared.
Lando Norris looked set for victory before a badly timed VSC and another painful McLaren pit stop completely flipped the race, handing Kimi Antonelli his eighth win of the season.
This episode includes:
• Why the new Madring circuit produced such a boring race and whether the track can actually be fixed
• Lando Norris losing the lead through brutal VSC timing and a seven-second McLaren pit stop
• Whether the VSC rules need changing after effectively deciding the race
• Kimi Antonelli taking another win and extending his championship advantage to 81 points
• Carlos Sainz crashing into Yuki and Fernando, plus another rough weekend for the home hero
• Lewis Hamilton’s brake failure, George Russell’s disastrous two-stop strategy, and our Gurus and Fools of the Week
🏁
Kimi gets another win, Lando leaves wondering what could have been, and Carlos Sainz somehow still has nice things to say about the Madring.
Next stop: Baku, where overtaking should finally be back, even if the new power units might completely lose their minds on that enormous straight.
