•
This episode is brought to you in partnership with Amazon Music.
Have you ever wondered what goes into running a successful F1 team? We have! So, a few days before this year's Silverstone GP, we spent a few days with the BWT Alpine F1 team to find out!
On today's episode, we head to the Silverstone paddock to chat with Alpine's two superstar drivers: Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly! They chat about where their motorsport journey began, how they best use their time away from the track, working with the engineers and wider team to improve performance, representing their home nation and loads more!
If you want to hear an exclusive Q&A segment where we asked Pierre and Esteban your questions, you can find it at the end of this episode over on Amazon Music. Click here to listen now!
