The Outside Line Podcast

In this week's episode we cover F1 and F2 from Spa, Formula E from London, and Indycar from Monterey. In F1, pole is apparently the worst place to start this weekend as we see if anyone can stop the McLaren drivers from winning or if the rain will stop anyone from racing altogether. Speaking of the Macca boys, 2 out of 3 of their Indycar drivers delivered at Laguna Seca, with the third proving to...

This week, we cover the Ontario Honda Dealers Indy Toronto, where an escaped pool noodle played havok with FP1, and Will Power played havok with Felix Rosenqvist’s front wing. In a week where Cookie Monster was grand marshall for the Brickyard 400, Callum Ilott was instead blaming other muppets for his #90 car not making the fast 6. Colton Herta and the other Andretti drivers were looking unstoppa...

We waited a few days to discuss the shock firing of Christian Horner by Red Bull racing, hoping for more details to emerge. However none did, leaving us to speculate wildly on the reasons and how it will affect Max. In Formula E, the pressure was measured in Pascals, as Wehrlein hoped to stop Oliver Rowland from being crowned champion, but in rain affected races, it was this season's forgotten men...

This week in Formula 1, the Lando-stans in the Lando-stands (and possibly also in the stewards room) hoped to celebrate a home grand prix at Silverstone. A wet race did create a final destination situation for the rookies, but added a pleasing degree of randomness to proceedings. In F2, Alex ‘Doona’ got his championship fight back on track and it was Browning’s turn to bully Martins this week. In...

In this bonus episode, we discuss the F1 movie. We focus on the bits that made us laugh and the bits that made us cringe. Contains spoilers from the start.

This week we cover the F1 from Austria, where we saw Lando dominate FP2, FP3, and Qualifying, thereby putting himself in prime bottling territory for the race. We also saw Carlos and Max demonstrate their precognitive powers by deeming their cars undrivable. Emma jumps back on the Liam hype-train, while also getting off the Yuki train, and briefly off then back onto the Kimi train. Peter, meanwhil...

This week we cover Formula E from Jakarta, where we see the rise of ‘ the bad boy of FE ’, but is that Dan Ticktum or Nyck DeVries? Next we briefly cover Indy NXT to discover who is the Norwegian Nightmare and who are his main opponents. Lastly, we cover a great Indycar race at Road America, where good racing was punctuated by several cautions, leading to a thrilling end where the leaders might ru...

In Formula 1 from Canada, Max and George renew their ill-tempered conflict, so surely they’ll be the cause of a significant crash. In F1 academy, we got a bonus set of 3 races with 3 different grids, so surely we won’t see the same person place 2nd in every race. In the 24 hours of Le Mans, plagued by bugs, the Cadillacs were looking strong, so surely we’ll finally see someone other than Ferrari w...

Incredibly none of the many racing series we cover were on this weekend, meaning this episode is a bit crazy. We start by discussing the F1 feeder series career path, touching on the FRECA races in Zandvoort and the F1 Academy TV show. However, things degenerate quickly as we get to know the Indycar drivers via a game of True or False and a game of F**K, Marry, K**l.  Contains more explicit l...

Another bumper-packed weekend of racing sees us discuss F1&F2 in Barcelona, Indycar in Detroit, and Formula E in Shanghai. Apropos of nothing, we start by discussing the careers of Santino Ferrucci and Dan Ticktum, who both had good results this weekend. Then we get to the action in F1 and can’t avoid talking about THE incident between Max and George. Alex Dunne continues to be the main charac...

We dared to dream that things could be different in Monaco and Indianapolis. However, a botched rule change exacerbates the traffic jam problems in Monaco and Álex Palou continues his unprecedented domination of Indycar by winning the Indy500. We cover both races, as well as the F2, where Alex Dunne goes from hero last week to the villain this week, meaning the only exciting race of the weekend wa...

Despite the title, we bravely avoid making childish jokes about Max holding his nuts in FP2, and instead discuss all the action from F1 and F2 at Imola.  We also cover FE at Toyko, where pit boost actually did something, and all 100 hours of qualifying for the Indy500. Additionally we debate the major issue of whether there are too many people with names beginning with ‘M’ in F2 and Emma surp...

In a blow to our primarily Formula One focused podcast, there wasn’t an F1 race this week. Luckily (for us) Alpine fired their team principal and one of their drivers and there was racing in Indycar at the Indianapolis Road Course, WEC from Spa, and IMSA from Laguna Seca.  Music provided by Sascha Ende under the CC BY 4.0 license: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license Hosted on Acast.

In our first episode we cover the Miami F1 GP, Miami F1 academy, Indycar racing from Barber, and Formula E from Monaco, and conclude the best race of the weekend was the pre-race LEGO sprint.  Music provided by Sascha Ende under the CC BY 4.0 license: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license Hosted on Acast.
