The Rest is Motorsport

Aurélie Donzelot & Lindsay Orridge

The Rest is Motorsport opens the closed doors in Formula 1 and motorsport to talk about everything that happens off track. Hosted by Aurélie Donzelot and Lindsay Orridge, who have over 40 years experience between them working with drivers, race teams, the brands that sponsor them and the media outlets that break the news, they share their knowledge, opinions and insights about anything except the actual racing. From the best brand campaigns, to the lifestyle of the people who you don’t see on Drive To Survive, it’s time to lift the lid on this secretive gate-kept sport.

  • 11 - When 50 Cent ruined British NASCAR

    Nope, that's not a joke title - but please don't sue us, Curtis Jackson... In the week that NASCAR announced that is was 'going international' AKA running a race in Mexico, we dig into why it's never really taken off outside of the US


    Also how can you legitimately travel for 20+ weeks a year without going insane? Packing cubes, that's how. Our best motorsport work travel tips will save the day, probably, maybe.


    And we have a four legged guest host today, because dogs are for life, OK?

  • 10 - How can F1 work better with creators?

    Ready for some motorsport hot takes? We got you.


    We’re diving into how rights holders can work better with creators who aren’t traditional broadcasters or official media partners - and how other sports get it right whilst motorsport doesn’t really get it, yet…


    Plus F1 Academy has bagged itself a new partner which is not something to be sniffed at these days - what will they bring to the series? (Spoiler: not the best liveries, soz)


    Links of the day


    👩‍⚖️ Cease and desist, ye F1 creators


    🏀 NBA doing it right


    👯‍♀️ FQ x F1A

  • 9 - Merch - the good, the bad and the palm tree

    F1 Summer Shutdown is almost over but Lins and Oz are squeezing in every last ray of sun before all hell breaks loose again


    Lins finally gets to share her hatred of 'themed merch' - basically anything with a palm tree/ flamingo/ cowboy hat on it - whilst she and Oz talk about the people that are doing it right (not looking at you, Max)


    It's also time to talk about feeding an army in the paddock, and why all that glitters in F1 hospitality isn't gold, especially if eating dairy makes you vom and you've spent £5k on a ticket, awks


    Some links for you lovely people


    🇫🇷 Enchanté - DR doing it right


    🔠 A dull press release announcing an exciting F1 x ASSC x UNDFTD collaboration (who needs vowels anyway?)

  • 8 - Why motorsport needs their own Snoop Dogg

    Nobody is emailing Oz or Lins all day and long may that continue (well, for another week at least)


    You couldn't miss the unofficial Olympic mascot that is Snoop this past couple of weeks and motorsport needs its own version. Or maybe Jeff Goldblum? Let's have both.


    And Oz and Lins throw together the brands they would love to bring into motorsport - if they had no limits on budgets, conflicts or old school advertising rules.


    PSA: can everyone continue to limit their emails when they come back from Summer Break, please? Cheers.


    Links of joy🤩


    🏡 Airbnb Icons (that UP! house rocks)

  • 7 - Pre-grid hype shows & why Monzo needs to get into F1

    It's finally F1 Summer Break and you can't wrestle Lins's swimsuit out of her cold, dead hands until September.


    We talk pre-grid shows, why F1 could use a bit of Olympics Celine Dion magic (who couldn't?) and why consumer banking brands are flocking to F1, taking over from the investment banks of yore. It's more fun than it sounds, honest.
