Short Corners

Relive the three days of the Rolex Australian GP as they happened with Peter Windsor. Although Max Verstappen took the pole for Red Bull after a relatively scrappy practice on Friday, his early retirement paved the way for a momentous one-two victory for Ferrari.  Carlos Sainz, facing an uncertain future following Lewis Hamilton's 2025 Ferrari signing, not only out-qualified his team-mate, Ch...

A big thanks to Jetcraft, the...

It may have resulted in another one-two finish for the reigning champions - for Red Bull, Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez - but on this night in Jeddah there was plenty of action amongst the supporting cast, specifically amongst Ferrari, McLaren, Mercedes and Aston Martin.  Charles Leclerc and Oscar Piastri took the major honours - but huge was also the drive of 18-year-old Oliver Bearman, standin...

Join Peter for two hours of F1 anecdotes, opinion and laughs as he takes live questions and comments from listeners around the world.  The theme is last Saturday's Bahrain GP (won by Red Bull's Max Verstappen ahead of team-mate Sergio Pérez)  but, in between, there are plenty of tangential subjects to keep you busy. A big thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of e...

Craig Scarborough's Bahrain update features strongly in this livestream - aired, as it was, after the first day of F1 testing.  Craig talks at length about the "non-zero" sidepods on the Red Bull RB20, and about the overall design philosophy of the car.  There's lots of analysis, too, of the new Ferrari and Mercedes.   With so many questions and comments coming in from listener...

Craig Scarborough talks us through the new F1 cars for 2024.  In addition to detailing the new Ferrari, Mercedes, McLaren, Red Bull, Aston Martin, VCA, Alpine and Sauber, Scarbs also talks about the return of anti-dive/anti-squat suspension geometry; beam wing and DRS developments; the pros and cons of pushrod and pullrod layouts; and the parity - or not - of the power units. With thanks to Craig...

Before taking questions and comments from viewers and listeners, Peter talks through the new Sauber C44-Ferrari - a car that for a brief moment appeared under the team name "Stake" (before the Swiss government enforced its tight gambling regulations).  The discussions then continue from last week: the impact of Lewis Hamilton's move to Ferrari; the poor treatment of Mario and Michae...

We invite you to take a trip back in time - to a wet, soggy Nürburgring - as we re-live the 1962 German GP with Peter Windsor.  The race resulted in a classic win for BRM's Graham Hill - but that was just the start of it.  Hill was lucky to survive a lurid practice crash;  Porsche, with Dan Gurney, were superquick after a week of testing; and for a while on Sunday, with mudslides making life...

In Peter's third livestream of 2024, featuring questions and comments from viewers and listeners around the world, Peter talks about the status of street races in F1 (with special mention of the new Madrid GP that will be staged from 2026 onwards); Max Verstappen's view of street circuits;  his bittersweet memories of the Montjuic Park circuit in Barcelona; the driving style of Nelson Pi...

Peter Windsor's second livestream of 2024 begins with a look back at the career of John Webb, who passed away last week.  A motor racing entrepreneur in the truest sense, John was known for his WebbAir charter service, as a sage commentator with Autosport and as a race promoter for Motor Circuit Developments in the great days of Brands Hatch, Snetterton, Mallory Park, etc.  Peter then takes q...

To the backdrop of stellar F1 careers at Honda, BAR, Force India, Aston Martin and Alpine, Otmar Szafnauer talks openly about key F1 issues, including  his departure from Aston and Alpine and about the controversy surrounding Oscar Piastri's switch from Alpine to McLaren.  In conversation with Peter Windsor, the subject also turns to the F1 cost cap and to whether Red Bull will continue to ha...
