Spanners, Matt Trumpets and Vincenzo Landino review the United States Grand Prix at COTA. We get into the huge contrast between the Mercedes teammates, McLaren finally using team orders and some questionable strategy messaging, Red Bull forcing rivals to react with aggressive tactics, Alonso stretching the soft tyres, and why so much of the field spent the race dropping out of the aero wash to manage tyres.Plus late-race Safety Car frustration, an extended-laps idea, Cadillac reliability questions and listener reckons.PATREONhttps://www.patreon.com/MissedApexMATT TRUMPETShttps://x.com/mattpt55https://bsky.app/profile/mattpt55.bsky.socialVINCENZO LANDINOhttps://www.bizofspeed.com/https://www.instagram.com/thevincenzolandino/https://x.com/vincenzolandino

Spanners reacts to qualifying at COTA as Kimi Antonelli takes pole and George Russell ends up P7, four tenths away from his Mercedes teammate at a crucial point in the title fight.

Spanners, Trumpets and Stuffeyy preview the United States Grand Prix at COTA.We do the increasingly ridiculous championship maths and discover that six drivers can still technically become World Champion, including a Lando Norris scenario requiring five wins and a third place.Plus:• Has Aston Martin already built a pole-position chassis?• Is Honda power hiding just how good the car is?• New cost-cap rules and James Vowles’ spending proposal• Christian Horner’s biggest book revelations• How much of Antonelli’s championship lead was built during Mercedes’ early-season dominance?• Listener reckons• Qualifying, race and wildcard predictionsPATREONhttps://www.patreon.com/MissedApexMissed Apex TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@missedapexf1Spannershttps://x.com/SpannersReadyhttps://bsky.app/profile/spannersready.bsky.socialMatt Trumpetshttps://x.com/mattpt55https://bsky.app/profile/mattpt55.bsky.socialStuffeyyhttps://www.youtube.com/@stuffeyyTip jarhttps://missedapexpodcast.com/tipjar

In a very special Behind the Barriers, Trumpets sits down with co-host and friend of the show Dr Campbell Waddell, CEO at TrackWalk and MD at R3Ltd, for a gripping conversation about how his PhD on motorsport surfaces wound up taking him to F1 circuits across the globe the past 20 years. From tyres and asphalt to what happens when an F1 driver hits you in the face with a door, no stone is left unturned as once again we sneak behind the barriers in this, the latest episode of Missed Apex Podcast!

The panel digs into Rwanda’s proposed Formula 1 project, what stage the plans are actually at and whether the race is likely to happen at all. Plus Christian Horner’s latest media tour, Haas, Colapinto, Red Bull and McLaren, power-unit politics, and plenty of listener reckons.

Spanners and the team pick apart a Singapore Grand Prix that promised plenty but delivered rather less. We get into the lack of overtaking, the strategic stalemate, the incidents and stewarding, Max and GP somehow communicating without really communicating, and what the weekend tells us about the competitive order heading into the next round. Plus your listener reckons and Peter Shillcock takes Comment of the Week with perhaps the most accurate race review of all: “Thanks MAP terrible race, great podcast.”Alex Vangeen Racing: https://www.youtube.com/@AlexVangeenRacingMissed Apex Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/MissedApexMissed Apex MotoGP: https://shows.acast.com/missed-apex-motogp

Spanners reacts to a strange Saturday in Singapore, starting with a part-wet sprint that somehow still became processional. We get into Russell’s crash, Hamilton’s pace and aggressive restart, Norris and Piastri making contact, and a packed post-race stewards schedule. Then qualifying brings more twists: Aston Martin and Albon struggle, both Racing Bulls reach Q3, Hamilton looks rapid before wasting two big chances, Leclerc appears from nowhere, and Verstappen delivers again.PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/MissedApexSPANNERS SOCIALS:X: https://x.com/SpannersReadyBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/spannersready.bsky.social

Spanners is joined by Trumpets to preview the Singapore Grand Prix. They dig into Mercedes’ unusual A/B test with its latest update, the FIA software fiasco and increasingly complicated deployment rules, Red Bull’s resurgence and the latest cost-cap headaches. Plus, why Singapore’s heat has put cooling vests back in the spotlight, the circuit characteristics that could shake up the competitive order, your listener reckons and our qualifying, race and wildcard predictions.⭐Missed Apex Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@missedapexf1⭐ Spanners https://x.com/SpannersReady https://bsky.app/profile/spannersready.bsky.social⭐ Matt Trumpets https://x.com/mattpt55 https://bsky.app/profile/mattpt55.bsky.socialWays To Support Missed Apex:✅ Join our Patreon to gain access to our exclusive Patreon Only Discord Chat + Bonus ContentWe Only Exist Due to Our Patron Support https://www.patreon.com/MissedApex✅ Leave a tip https://missedapexpodcast.com/tipjar
