Formula Pod

The world, social media and us got shocked with Lewis Hamilton parting ways with Mercedes AMG in 2025. Having two Mercedes and Hamilton fans in the show does make the grieving a little more different, but we are happy for him. We also discuss about the HAAS car launch and livery.

In this episode of Formula Pod, we explore all about our favorite races from the season, we look upon some stats in terms of which driver has the biggest destructor bill, how much money each team spent on a driver by each driver points. Also, the merch wars still go on between Mihir and Vishruthi.

The finale race, and this probably would be the longest podcast episode Formula Pod ever dared to do. A lot of race talk, but this even that much amount of gossip has landed. Not a lot of luck for Ferrari, but they played all the tricks in the book to grab that P2 spot from Mercedes. Overall a tough season got done with....

The crew comes back as we discuss all about the Qatar GP at Lusail. Qatar wanted to make all the noises, but this race just went beyond the noise it had to make. Drivers, Tires, Weather, each factors came up because it was the first time F1 comes to a track which didn't have much grip.

This probably would be an experimental episode, as this time, Arjun tried to do the intro in Japanese, and it looks like he did succeed somehow. Its also an international episode as Mihir and Vishruthi join us all the way from London, where the race kicked off at an ungodly hour 😂. We officially came back to reality with just Max, but his teammate showed another side of things. McLaren can offici...

Finally, we managed to see one proper race at the home of F1's Night Race, Singapore. Ferrari crushed it by defending the position since Lap 1, and Carlos Sainz is the only driver other than Max to lead that many laps in the season. We explore the Carlando business, is Mercedes coming back strong finally with W14? We also have a new deck of people joining us on the show today!

Formula Pod is back with the action at The Temple of Speed! In the home race for Ferrari, hope was there when Carlos Sainz got that pole position, but Max Verstappen snatched it back in 15 laps.

We got back into action at Zandvoort, but the rains gave a different angle to the race. It was tearful as the drivers who qualified dropped positions, the rain from nature, and Max winning again with a comfortable margin... Arjun and Vishruthi discuss in detail about the DutchGP

In this edition of track talks, we take an in-depth analysis of things which we normally don't talk much about. We understand what's going on between Carlos Sainz Jr. and Audi. Is he ditching the Italian Red car? Should F1 teams be allowed to change their identities - who knows what Alphatauri will be called next year? The formula pod chaps give their verdicts of the Worst Driver on the gr...

We also discuss should Formula 1 still have those olden full-fuel cars, but instead of the environment-harming fuel, they use sustainable fuels. If you ever...

The Formula Pod crew is back with another podcast as we discuss the British Grand Prix. Silverstone never fails to create drama, and this time it still managed to keep its title up high with the McLarens being the powerful Mercedes instead of the Green Bulls, i.e., Aston Martin.

In this episode of Formula Pod, we have the enthusiastic McLaren fan, Vishruthi, sharing all the details about McLaren's performance and points. Esteban Ocon's outstanding perform...

Since we didn't end up having a race at Emilia-Romagna, we thought, why not peep into what's happening inside the paddock..

Is Nyck DeVries really not having the possibility to be at the paddock driving a Formula 1 car? We also discuss the new regulatio...
