Episode 150 - 2026 F1 Austrian Grand Prix
Summary Teeks and Riri break down a chaotic Austrian Grand Prix weekend packed with Red Bull drama, Ferrari upgrades, FIA controversy, and a memorable race battle between George Russell, Max Verstappen, and the Ferraris. The episode moves from news and rumours into qualifying chaos, then into a race that featured strategy swings, yellow flags, overtakes, and plenty of driver market speculation. Key Takeaways Red Bull continues to lose important staff, adding pressure to the team’s future. Ferrari’s upgrade package is legitimate, but the FIA is already moving to shut down some of its innovation. The FIA’s governance changes sparked major controversy and accusations of power consolidation. Russell’s pole lap became one of the main talking points of the weekend because of the yellow-flag situation. Verstappen’s qualifying issue and race recovery showed exactly why he remains such a dangerous contender. The Hamilton-Verstappen battle was the most exciting on-track moment of the episode. Ferrari still looks competitive, but race execution remains inconsistent.

Key Topics: BMW’s new Neue Klasse M3 concept and what it could mean for the next generation of M cars Audi’s new Q7 and why the styling and single diesel V6 option split opinion Boron Motorworks’ fully reimagined Ford Escort restomod BMW’s new hydrogen storage system and fuel cell plans for future models Audi’s Nuvalari supercar and how it stacks up against the Lamborghini Temerario AC’s new Cobra Coupe and its global ambitions BMW’s xDrive M2 and why the four-wheel-drive version may now be the one to buy Porsche killing off the Taycan Sport Turismo and Cross Turismo Mercedes keeping the V8 alive in its big SUVs Upcoming Goodwood Festival of Speed highlights Lada giving the Niva its first airbag in 2026 Key takeaways BMW seems to be recommitting to driving dynamics, even in an EV future.
