151. Ferrari's Last-Ditch Effort To Save Their Season
20:09||Season 4, Ep. 151Are Ferrari's F1 hopes really hotter than the news suggests? Ferrari has brought its second and final ADUO engine upgrade to Monza. The reported package claims solid patches...and the timing couldnât be better! Championship leader Kimi Antonelli starts at the back while Lewis Hamilton begins 59 points behind. What's the point of this upgrade? Easy! To correct for the original 2026 plan. With this in mind, could Lewis Hamilton cut the gap to his successor from 59 points to 34? Could Ferrari finally stop its power fade that's plagued its 2026 Formula 1 campaign?#f1 #formula1 #ferrari #monza #italiangp #lewishamilton #charlesleclerc #kimiantonelli #georgerussell #landonorrisSubscribe for weekly F1 analysis breakdowns and let me know in the comments if you think Ferrari has the pace to back up the hype.Ferrariâs Monza Upgrade Could Blow The Title Fight Openhttps://youtu.be/QQEwiDBK05g
150. Ferrari Just Made Its Move for Oconâs Haas Seat
20:17||Season 4, Ep. 150Ferrari is pushing its junior towards Haas for 2027. HARD.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsFred Vasseur says Ferrari and Haas are working to find Rafael Camara an F1 route for 2027. Right after the latter tested him, McLaren's Leonardo Fornaroli and Toyota's Ryo Hirakawa against Oliver Bearmanâs reference at PortimĂŁo. NOT Ocon. What does this mean for the option for the Frenchman? And could the Brazilian REALLY get his Formula 1 break thanks to Ferrari's political might? Well, with the driver market of Formula 1 being so boring, this might be the only option for us all.#f1 #formula1 #estebanocon #haasf1 #ferrari #rafaelcamara #f1news #f1drivermarket #f12027 #lawvs
149. F1âs Biggest Drivers Have Stopped Chasing the Fastest Car
18:10||Season 4, Ep. 149Lando Norris is betting his F1 career on his current team, just like Max Verstappen.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsLando Norris has committed to McLaren until 2030 despite sitting 83 points behind in the 2026 F1 championship. Max Verstappen confirmed his Red Bull future to the same deadline. So why are two world champions ignoring Formula 1âs oldest habit and refusing to chase a faster car?#f1 #formula1 #landonorris #mclaren #maxverstappen #redbullracing #f1news #f1analysis #f12026 F1âs Biggest Drivers Have Stopped Chasing the Fastest Carhttps://youtu.be/jZBiprndAyw
148. Ferrariâs Biggest Problem Isnât The Car Anymore
18:31||Season 4, Ep. 148Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc both questioned Ferrariâs Zandvoort strategy.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsOh dear. It happened again. Both Ferrari drivers encountered one another on an F1 track...and Ferrari had no idea what to do about it. Hamilton wanted Ferrari to act sooner and Leclerc wanted them to wait longer...and to top it all of, their boss admitted the team was left confused!And we saw this before, in Miami and Baku. When these two Formula 1 superstars encounter each other on track, it usually leads to sore heads across the board. Could this be how the Scuderia fumbles the 2026 Formula One title?#f1 #formula1 #ferrari #lewishamilton #charlesleclerc #scuderiaferrari #dutchgp #zandvoort #f1news #f1analysis
147. The Red Bull Engine Crisis
18:36||Season 4, Ep. 147How can being the best mean absolutely nothing?!Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsThe FIA has once again deemed Red Bull Ford Powertrains as Formula 1âs benchmark combustion engine. And once you actually read the rules, it gets a little bit surreal. The ADUO can offer opportunities to sort out the turbo, ERS, MGU-K, cooling systems and control electronics...but the assessment for the offerings are JUST for the ICE. How is that fair?!To me, Red Bull's 2026 program is now absolutely cooked...but the teams voted for this...now they, Red Bull, might be regretting their willingess for simplicity.

146. Toto Wolffâs Ferrari Comments Have Aged VERY Badly
19:34||Season 4, Ep. 146Mercedes says it canât afford to keep up...but their bosses' own comments make that VERY hard to explain.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMercedes dominated the start of F1's 2026 season...but now it's looking less so...and McLaren doesn't buy it! So whatâs actually happened at Mercedes? With Kimi Antonelliâs championship lead under pressure and Mercedesâ reliability problems refusing to disappear, this development battle could have a major impact on the Formula 1 title. Could Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton respond to Mercedes' lack of development?#f1 #formula1 #f12026 #mercedes #ferrari #mclaren #totowolff #andreastella #fredvasseur #kimiantonelli #landonorris #lewishamilton #georgerussell #f1news #f1analysis #f1costcap #f1upgrades #f1championship

144. Williamsâ Happy Story Doesnât Quite Add Up
17:22||Season 4, Ep. 144Iâm not convinced Williams kept their drivers on equal terms.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsAlex Albon and Carlos Sainz are both staying at Williams for 2027, but look closer and these are two very different deals. The happy little double announcement isn't quite what it seems. These drivers are no longer the same. There is a number two driver, something which will really hit home come next season...how did we get here? One thing's for sure, Williams are in a weaker position now than they were two years ago. #f1 #carlossainz #alexalbon #formula1 #formulaone #f12026 #f1news #f1latest #williamsf1 #williamsracing #f1updates #f1teams #f1drivers #f1car #williams #f1drama #f1gossip Williamsâ Happy Story Doesnât Quite Add Uphttps://youtu.be/Dew-mTqedOo
143. Lawson Returns to Red Bull as the Old Rules Change
19:03||Season 4, Ep. 143Liam Lawson's back at Red Bull as Hadjar misses Zandvoort...but this driver reshuffle says far more about Red Bull than you think!Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsIsack Hadjarâs "wrist injurty" has unexpectedly sent Liam Lawson back to Red Bull and Yuki Tsunoda back to Racing Bulls. At the same circuit where Lawson made his F1 debut in 2023...in similar circumstances! Beyond the ridiculous coincidence though, this weekend could tell us a lot about how Red Bull now handles its drivers in such scenarios. Thereâs also the uncomfortable advantage of Red Bull owning two teams being put on full display for its critics. For me? This is NOT redemeption for either Liam or Yuki, but simply a chance to help their teams out in their own F1 battles.Red Bull Brings Lawson Back Without Dropping Anyonehttps://youtu.be/Ir4VQLPdxp8
