The Fast and the Curious

Betty and Christian go through the big talking points from a chaotic Brazilian Grand Prix. From wild track conditions to a disqualification and Max's "best race yet" (and Lance Stroll's formation lap antics) it all made for a pretty memorable race, which looks to put the drivers' title battle to bed. But with three races to go, where could the constructors title end up and how much of a boost has that double podium given Alpine as we head towards to season finale?

This week the team (minus Betty who is on other sporting duties) head to an industrial estate in east London for a day of karting. However, a lot of the other teams have taken the event far too seriously and are wearing their own kit and have enrolled professional drivers. With Team Principal Greg also out of action after putting his back out, it's a big day for Christian to prove himself on the track. They're joined by a reserve driver who also loves talking about cars for a living on what he calls “the broadest church of automotive appreciation”, from finding classic cars in barns to the future of motoring; Jonny Smith from The Late Brake Show (aka The Car Pervert). With an actual F1 race this weekend there's also time to preview the Qatar Grand Prix, discuss the probability of a new team joining the grid and answer listener questions about the origins of Formula One and Red Bull's human barriers.
