Box of Neutrals F1 Podcast

We revive the mythical Bathurst Man after Formula One's dalliance with pre-race driver introductions, and Peter’s McGinley's union steps in to curtail this week's recording after a number of Ferrari-esque technical failures. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michael and Rob are mysteriously absent from the potentially title-deciding USGP preview, so Peter and special guest host Trent Price reminisce about their plunger-related pastimes (not a euphemism). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

McGinley talks about his theoretical calendar exploits, Rob pays tribute to his F1 2016 teammate Jolyon Palmer and Michael asks Dieter what he Renckens about dyed blonde hair. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Peter imparts his wisdom regarding power sockets and instant coffee, Rob peaks behind the curtain of last week's show and Michael invokes the memory of the Maldonado era. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michael sweats it up in Malaysia, Peter McGinley fondly recalls the day he left his mark in Sepang, and Rob discusses with Trent Price his life regret of not learning to play a musical instrument. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We ask whether the championship is over six rounds from the finish and how we might keep McGinley interested if so, and we have an extremely visual discussion that we find funny but probably makes no sense on radio in retrospect. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michael sweats profusely in Singapore at the time of recording while Peter and Rob talk about Meat Loaf at the time of recording, and Dieter tells us what he Renckens about McLaren and Honda, even though it hadn't happened at the time of recording. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Italian Grand Prix underdelivers, Peter McGinley gives some dating advice, Michael talks about the word 'froth', and Rob walks through some of Box of Neutrals's lesser-known sound effects. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michael tries to embroil Formula One in a dual citizenship scandal, Rob practices his German accent and Peter forgets most of the current Formula One drivers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In a week of underwhelming driver announcements, Peter McGinley (reluctantly) has his name thrown into the ring. Plus Volkswagen criticises F1 (again) and we talk about toilets (again). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We look back at the good, bad, and IndyCar of the 2017 Formula One season, after which Peter McGinley reflects on his brief career in community journalism and his new haircut. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We bring in the first week of the enforced midseason shutdown with Dieter Rencken and Trent Price in a discussion about the seismic movements in the broader motorsport world while Peter McGinley talks about Pringles. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We speculate about Paul di Resta’s rapid rise back to F1 after some people became ill, Robert Kubica's single-day test becomes more noteworthy than an entire grand prix, and we ask McGinley what he thinks about halo. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Box of Neutrals gets Kubica fever ahead of his first modern F1 car test, Rob asks Peter more about his digestive system than you'll ever need to know, and Michael goes to Magyarország for the nagydíj. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Peter says he's allergic to work, Michael makes the show's first reference to Jerome d’Ambrosio's in many years, and Rob catastrophically attempts to pronounce Magyar Nagydij. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Feat Dieter Rencken. Peter gets excited about schnitzels, Rob eschews the radio microphone for your common or garden-variety mobile telephone, Michael is still in Europe — but he's not in Mykonos — and Dieter renckens McLaren-Honda might not be over yet. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sebastian Vettel's visit to the FIA this week has been all the rage, so naturally we spend most of our time talking about Jolyon Palmer and Robert Kubica, at least one of whom isn't a Formula One driver. We don’t confuse Austria for Australia. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michael makes travel plans based on the wrong calendar, Rob learns to spell Azerbajian (sic) and Peter confesses to a concerning story about his conduct at a 60th birthday party — and none of them sideswipes a car in the process. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In a week of the letter K, we wade through Monisha Kaltenborn's split with Sauber, the race in Baku and the 2018 F1 Kalendar, and Peter McGinley tells a very boring story to prepare for a probably boring Azerbaijan Grand Prix. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In perhaps our least relevant episode of the year Peter is obliged to respond to a barrage of your #AskMcGinley questions. Michael and Rob, who did actually watch the race, ask whether McLaren-Honda is cooked, and we don’t talk about Jacques Villeneuve. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

With Dieter Rencken. We preview the Canadian Grand Prix — or, for Australian fans, the disgusting breakfast diet grand prix. We have an unusually optimistic chat with Dieter Rencken for Whadaya Rencken, and Peter tries his hand at hardware sales. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We wonder whether Kimi Räikkönen inherited Lewis Hamilton's tag of most #robbed driver in the Monaco Grand Prix before discussion devolves into nostalgia about suburban bread factories. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

BoN13: unlucky for some? Rob catches a cold, Michael gets 1996 and 2004 confused, and Peter still doesn't have his licence. We try to talk about the Indianapolis 500 but end up talking about fast food instead. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Spanish Grand Prix overperforms, Red Bull Racing underperforms, and Peter McGinley refuses to perform — unless there's a bazooka-fired T-shirt in it for him. We pay credit to a classic TV show soundtrack. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

With Dieter Rencken. We talk fake bribes, Jenson Button's fake motivation, and fake improvements to F1 car liveries, plus the elusive 'KFC Zinger Replay' also makes a fleeting cameo for no real reason. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
