Garage Gossip || the motorsport podcast

I have to be honest, not the best episode I ever recorded, but still a fun one!! In this episode, I obviously look ahead at the Miami Grand Prix weekend and discuss some exciting storylines. Going from it being a sprint weekend to some possible upgrades coming to Max Verstappen being a non-dad for one last race weekend. And for my readers, I also give some of my favorite F1 romance book recommenda...

I've noticed some things in the F1 space recently that I just had to discuss. I start with the feeling that the ‘Driver Of The Day’ is randomly selected every race. But let’s also not ignore my feelings about what the F1TV team selects to show during the broadcast of the races and qualifying sessions… Of course, I need to talk about the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. Yes, that includes Max Verstapp...

Well, well, well looks like what we didn’t get in Suzuka we got plenty of in Shakir! And I am obviously talking about all that overtaking during the Grand Prix! And even though I definitely talk about that in this episode, that is not the only thing! Because how could I not talk about rookie running and about qualifying?! But I also share some thoughts on the F2 sessions I managed to catch during...

I have no idea how I managed to fill an episode of 25 minutes after that boring race… Ok, no I do know. By talking about Carlos Sainz having an ‘expensive poo’, not my words but Jenson Button’s. Hopefully next weekend is more eventful and less boring. But Fred Vesti has entered the chat so I am already 10x more invested in this weekend than in the last.

Yukisan finally driving in the Red Bull?! How could I not talk about that for 15 minutes straight?! Sadly that also means Liam Lawson being demoted to the B-team… And what have Alex Albon and Franco Colapinto to do with this Red Bull seat? Listen and you’ll find out! But that is not all, I also share some thoughts going into the Japanese Grand Prix weekend and some exciting news for Victor Martins...

Once upon a time, in the land of Australia, Formula 1 returned for a grand spectacle. But instead of a dream weekend, chaos unfolded. A wicked rookie curse struck, with Ollie Bearman, Kimi Antonelli, and Liam Lawson facing misfortune before the race had even begun. Isack Hadjar crashed before the lights went out, and Jack Doohan’s home race hopes vanished on lap one. The rain showed no mercy, send...

It is finally here, the 2025 Formula 1 season!! but before we dive head first into that, we need to discuss a few other things. From Amaury Cordeel being Christian Mansell’s replacement to Chloe Chong completing the F1 Academy grid in her Charlotte Tilbury-sponsored car. But I also discuss my opinion on season 7 of ‘Drive To Survive’ and Alpine signing yet another reserve and test driver (their 4t...

No joke, this was honestly the most fun episode I have ever recorded (the sad thing is that the video is overexposed…) In this episode, we obviously had to talk about my post-pre-season thoughts. Who do I think is the strongest team, and who is the weakest team? But let’s also not forget that the new season of 'Drive To Survive' comes out THIS FRIDAY! There is also some sad news regarding...

The start of the 2025 F1 season is coming closer and closer. And the first thing to launch us into that season is pre-season testing! Which is happening right when this episode comes out! So in this episode, you will hear what I am most excited about for pre-season testing and other (choking) things like Logan Sargeant deciding to end his racing career.

Skipping the F1 75 Live event? Not a chance! In this episode, I break down all the 2025 livery reveals and share my ratings. Plus, I catch you up on the latest two signings in the F2 grid and dive into Franco Colapinto’s (sort of) move to Alpine. And I also cover the Stewardle from February 20th 2025!

Let’s make our 2025 pre-season predictions! But let’s also talk about Zhou Guanyu being confirmed as Ferrari's reserve driver and Tina Hausmann finally resigning for another season in F1 Academy!! And while we’re at it let’s chat some more about F1 75 Live and the separate team launches.

Warning this episode may be a little bit chaotic… We should thank the F1 gods for this because they literally gave me nothing so I had to assemble the most random things to talk about. Luckily for you, I am a certified yapper so I filled an entire episode with these random little tidbits. From new partnerships in Formula 1 to my distaste for people not giving the feeder series enough support.

SHE'S BACK!! I can’t be the only one who feels like this year’s F1 winter break is dragging on extra long… But don’t worry, I’m here to make this winter break a little easier because Garage Gossip is back for season 3!! In this episode, I mainly talk about everything that’s happened over the past few weeks. From the Alpine drama to smaller things like Will Buxton leaving F1TV (yes, I feel truly be...

“It was Christmas Eve, and the Formula 1 paddock was unusually quiet. The roar of engines had been replaced by the jingle of sleigh bells, and the garages were decked out in tinsel and lights. But all was not well. Deep in the North Pole, Santa Claus was pacing nervously. His magical sleigh had broken down, and with just hours to go before Christmas, he needed help.” If you want to know how the st...

[disclaimer: very chaotic episode] As promised last week, let’s talk about the 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekend but make it F2 and F1 Academy. And while I’m at it, let’s also look at how the grid for the 2025 season in both series is shaping up.

And just like that, the 2024 Formula 1 season is over... What a season it's been, and what a last Grand Prix we got. In this episode, I recap the Abu Dhabi GP and talk about a bunch of other stuff, like Max Verstappen becoming a dad?! But I also say goodbye to 4 amazing drivers (and cry about this).

Where do I even begin?! The Qatar GP weekend was CRA-ZY. From Abbi Pulling being crowned the F1 Academy 2024 champion to only half a point between F2 championship contenders Gabriel Bortoleto and Isack Hadjar. And then I haven’t talked about F1 yet… where we got the first points for Sauber, penalty shenanigans and some drivers drama…

This week, I’m diving into the action-packed Las Vegas Grand Prix! From George Russell’s standout weekend to Max getting his 4th Championship, it was a race to remember. We cover all the pit-stop chaos (looking at you, Ferrari, Aston Martin, and Alpine!), plus the bromance between Max and Lando. And, of course, the Ferrari drama that had fans buzzing.

It’s my birthday! (The famous words of Mr. …) So here is a fun birthday episode in which I can finally talk again about Logie Bear and the feeder series! But there’s also plenty of F1 content like Lewis Hamilton not driving the end-of-season test for Ferrari but Carlos Sainz driving it for Williams… And how could I not talk about the disaster that we call F175 Live… And on top of that, it’s Las Ve...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LANDO NORRIS! (I felt guilty not motioning this in the episode itself, so I had to do it in the caption, lmao) To celebrate Lando’s birthday, let’s talk about everything except him—from new rookies entering the F1 grid to driver swaps on the F2 grid to the all-women’s test in FE. Get settled because it’s a good one!

Get ready for some (a lot of) rage, but also laughs and excitement as I recap the 2024 Brazil Grand Prix weekend. I talk about super-sub, Oliver Bearman, the Sunday Qualifying session, and the chaos that was the Grand Prix. But I also say what’s on my mind about people’s comments on the FIA being too scared to drive in the rain and Franco Colapinto being photographed while he clearly didn’t want t...

*excuse my speech in this episode, I am on the brink of having a cold so my voice was acting up* The Mexico City Grand Prix weekend brought plenty of thrills and surprises! From Carlos Sainz clinching his fourth F1 victory to both Haas drivers landing in the points, fans were in for a treat. The drama didn’t disappoint either: Liam giving Checo the middle finger and Max Verstappen’s double 10-seco...

Howdy y’all! Let’s chat about the Austin Grand Prix weekend, shall we? From Liam Lawson to Franco Colapinto and from a Ferrari masterclass to the FIA fumbling with giving out penalties… And like promised in my last episode I will also deep dive into the 2024 rookie running sessions. Disclaimer: If you work for the FIA, please don’t listen to this episode I don’t want to go and pick up trash becaus...

We survived the ‘F1 fall break’!! Sooo… let’s get back to racing in Austin! Or at least, let’s get hyped for the Austin Grand Prix. And of course, we can’t not talk about Daniel Ricciardo and Liam Lawson, but we’ve also got to dive into the battle at the front of the grid. Oh, and let’s chat about Lando Norris… from being ‘velcro-ed’ to his kart back in the day, to his World Mental Health Day mess...

We have officially entered the F1 fall break. Not an official break on the calendar but it sure does feel like one… We are in week two without any cars going vroom vroom in circles for hours on end and I feel like we might be going crazy.. Luckily we got plenty of topics to fuel our brains with as it is officially announced that VCARB will be parting ways with Daniel Ricciardo. Lando has been givi...
