Short Corners

This was yet another Belgian GP to remember:  the weather, to keep things complicated, was dry-wet-dry over the three days.  Red Bull's Max Verstappen went into the weekend with a ten-place grid penalty due to an out-of-regulation engine change.  McLaren-Mercedes were super-quick on Friday. Max V was fastest on Saturday, in difficult conditions, and would thus start P11.  Mercedes' Georg...

Although this race resulted in a resounding one-two finish for McLaren-Mercedes it will always be remembered for the acrimony surrounding McLaren's decision to give the win to Oscar Piastri.  In so doing, the McLaren management stood by a pre-race decision to reward the driver who led off the line - itself an extraordinary plan - and threatened Lando Norris with reduced further support if he...

Join Peter and viewers as they look back at the British GP and chat about all matters of F1 - past, present and future.  Questions range from whether Oscar Piastri might soon eclipse Lando Norris to which F1 championships should be re-visited and overturned....

Re-live Sir Lewis Hamilton's titanic win at Silverstone via Peter Windsor's full analysis. Peter pin-pointed the breathtaking grace of Lewis's driving as early as Saturday, when Lewis's prolonged use of eighth gear into Becketts was in sharp contrast to that of his team-mate, George Russell, who was using seventh at exactly the same place. George led the race from the pole but...

Re-live the frenetic Austrian GP with Peter Windsor, beginning with free practice and Sprint qualifying on Friday and culminating in a late-race collision between Red Bull's Max Verstappen and McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris.  George Russell (Mercedes) weaved through the debris to score career win number two, with Oscar Piastri second for McLaren-Mercedes and Carlos Sainz back on the podi...

Lots to talk about after that frenetic Austrian GP - and Cameron has plenty of questions for Peter Windsor.  Does Max Verstappen deserve all the criticism that has been heading his way?  Was Lando the innocent party?  And what role did DRS play in the accident?  There's plenty of chat about all this - and lots more besides.   With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller...

Peter interacts live with viewers on the Wednesday prior to the Austrian GP (or the Wednesday after the Spanish GP - whichever way you look at it).  There's lots of talk about Max, Lewis, Charles, Carlos, Merc, Red Bull, Ferrari, Silverstone ticket prices and lots more besides - including Patrick Tambay, Rob Wilson and Liam Lawson.  Enjoy. With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buy...

Although McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris was impressively fast in the closing stages of the Spanish GP, it was again Max Verstappen who secured another win - his 61st - on the circuit on which, in 2016, he first opened his account.  Sir Lewis Hamilton finished third for Mercedes, ahead of team-mate George Russell; and Ferrari were fifth and sixth. The race was coloured by numerous, outstanding...

Enjoy another chat between Cameron - @CameronF1TV - and Peter Windsor.  It's the Monday after the Spanish GP and the first point of discussion is the performance of Max Verstappen, with Cameron asking Peter how Max's win in Spain compared with that in Canada.  Peter initially responds by talking about those last ten laps in Montreal.... Special thanks to @CameronF1TV With thanks to Jetcr...

It's the Tuesday after the Canadian GP and Peter is inundated with questions and comments from listeners.  Subjects include the rise and rise of McLaren; the brilliance of Max Verstappen; the relatively strong showing by Mercedes; the Red Bull Safety Car issue; and the potential (or not) of Aston Martin.  Sit back and enjoy.

Talking live on CameronF1, Peter in this podcast comments on the recent passing of Françoise Hardy (who played Lisa in the movie "Grand Prix"); the problems facing young drivers with talent (but no budget); and the key elements of the Canadian GP, including Lewis Hamilton's prospects for the remainder of this year and the penalty incurred by Red Bull Racing for attempting to pre-emp...

Changeable weather conditions in both qualifying and the race combined to make this a Canadian GP to remember.   Mercedes' George Russell and McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris both looked strong in various stages of Saturday and Sunday  but in the closing moments of the race, on a dry track, in a Safety Car re-start, it was Red Bull-Honda's Max Verstappen who drove impeccably to win. ...

Although the FIA have yet to publish detailed rules defining the 2026 F1 car, they recently announced broad-brush parameters for the car's aero configuration, power unit, minimum weight and other key dimensions.  In this podcast Peter Windsor talks through this published framework with our technical motor sport expert,  Craig Scarborough. Follow Craig @ScarbsTech  A big thanks to Jetcraft, th...

Peter predicted in the build-up to the Monaco GP that Ferrari would be super quick...and so it proved. Charles Leclerc not only won his third pole at Monaco but also went on to win at home for the first time, replicating the achievement of Louis Chiron in 1931.  It was, as such, a momentously significant race for F1 - but it was also an unusual one: the Pirelli hard- and medium-compound tyres ran...

It was breathtakingly close at Imola in both qualifying and in the race.  Max Verstappen won from the pole for Red Bull-Honda but the McLaren-Mercedes drivers pushed him all the way, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri proving that the updated 2024 McLaren can also shine on a circuit very different from Miami.  Ferrari were the third-best team, still lacking a little top speed, but the recent updates a...

In the build-up to the "MSC Cruises Gran Premio del Made in Italy e dell'Emilia-Romagna"  (aka the F1 race at Imola)  this weekend, Peter responds to questions and comments from viewers around the world.  He introduces this podcast with a detailed look at Mercedes' win in the 1924 Targa Florio - a result that the current Merc F1 team are celebrating this weekend as George Russe...

In this livestream Peter looks back at the stunning memorial service for Sir Stirling Moss, held at London's Westminster Abbey on (the gloriously sunny morning of) May 08.  He also takes questions and comments relating to the Miami GP,  the FIA, the Andretti F1 team application, the driving style of Alpine's Pierre Gasly, the woes at Mercedes...and much, much more. A big thanks to Jetcra...

Peter Windsor details a busy weekend in Miami.  Max Verstappen won the Saturday sprint for Red Bull-Honda but it was McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris who was Sunday's star,  not only winning his first Grand Prix but also McLaren's first  since Monza, 2021.

Peter Windsor recalls the genius of Jim Clark - the only driver in history to have won the F1 World Championship and the Indianapolis 500 in the same year.   Peter first talks about Clark's career generically; then, transporting  us back to Silverstone, 1965, he details what may have been Clark's greatest Grand Prix victory. A big thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and se...

Adrian Newey to leave Red Bull!  This is the underlying theme of our April 25 livestream.  Peter offers his thoughts about why Adrian is leaving and what he might do next - and then discusses the news with listeners and viewers on YouTube chat.  There's lots of other F1 talk, too - past, present and future - with questions including "who was better - Wimille or Fangio?" and comments...

 Max Verstappen's trophy collection was overflowing after China - but there were plenty of sub-plots to keep us entertained.  The first sprint race of the year resulted in a pole for Lando Norris and a P2 for Lewis Hamilton; Carlos Sainz recovered brilliantly in qualfying after hitting the barrier on Saturday; Fernando Alonso gave us a reflex masterclass during the GP proper; and Lando Norris...

Revisit all three days of the Japanese GP with Peter Windsor - from Friday, when Mercedes showed lots of promise, through to the weekend, when Red Bull, McLaren and Ferrari remorselessly rose to the top.  Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez drove beautifully to create another one-two for Red Bull-Honda - and the Ferrari drivers were impeccable, too: Carlos Sainz finished a strong third and Charles Lec...
