The Race F1 Podcast

In this episode of The Race F1 Podcast, sponsored by Skinceuticals, we ask what’s next for George Russell, as his Mercedes team-mate Kimi Antonelli looks to seal the world title in Mexico this weekend. Is Russell done as far as being a title threat is concerned given his team-mate’s rise, or can he use the closing stages of this season to build the foundations for a title push next year, Nico Rosberg 2015-style?

Edd Straw is joined in Mexico City by Josh Suttill to answer those questions and look ahead to the Mexican Grand Prix, including which teams might flourish in the high altitude surroundings, and the importance of Colton Herta's FP1 outing for Cadillac as the American chases a 2027 race drive.

In the latest mailbag edition of The Race F1 Podcast, sponsored by Skinceuticals, Edd Straw is joined by Josh Suttill to tackle another batch of questions from listeners.

Top of the pile is a question about how champion elect Kimi Antonelli compares to Max Verstappen, which is followed by another about how the Italian has improved as a driver in 2026.

There are also questions about whether talk of Lewis Hamilton being back to his best in 2026 was premature, why some race incidents take so long to be investigated, and what's behind Alex Albon's recent struggles, amongst other topics.

The Race F1 Podcast, sponsored by Skinceuticals, brings you the Saturday edition of our In-Car Insights podcast - usually only available to The Race Members' Club.

Edd Straw, Josh Suttill and Scott Mitchell-Malm debrief a day full of surprises at Austin, when championship leader Kimi Antonelli ending up on pole for the United States Grand Prix was actually something of a curveball given how strong Ferrari in particular had looked...until the moment that actually counted.

Plus the full story behind the news of a possible shock driver line-up change for 2027 at Cadillac, and inevitably a few wrong turnings and navigation miscues too.

In the latest episode of The Race F1 Rewind, Edd Straw and Mark Hughes dig into the truth about Michael Schumacher’s Ferrari exit in 2006, which brought the curtain down on a period of unprecedented dominance that included five drivers’ and six constructors’ world titles and 72 Schumacher victories. They explain the circumstances around the news breaking and explore the conspiracy theory that Schumacher was pushed out, before hitting the fast forward button and speculating on what might have happened if Schumacher had never left.
