The Pitstop Podcast

Monaco is usually a low event rather pedestrian Grand Prix... Unless its not!  After one of the closest and best qualifying sessions in recent memory that saw Max vs Alonso! we thought that would be the story... But then it started to Rain! 

Braydon Dowler-Coltman returns to guest host along with Tyler Walzak as Jordan is away. The Miami GP was a lot more dramatic and offered us a-lot more entertainment than last season. 

The Azerbaijan Grand prix was a very busy weekend with the first Sprint of the 2023 season. The new sprint format was sorta a letdown and frankly left much to be desired. The Race was also relatively uneventful and unless your name is Sergio Perez you might prefer to just forget about the whole thing and move on to Miami. Tyler and Jordan discuss all of the details before answering a listener ques...

Well the Australian Grand Prix of 2023 left a lot of people seeing red down under. What we like to call a "High event race" Red Flags, wrecks and a podium made up of 3 world champions. Lots to breakdown and discuss this week! 

2023 SAUDI ARABIA GRAND PRIX

2023 BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX

And with that, the 2022 F1 season ended... sorta a let down really. The last race of the longest F1 season ever was sorta a microcosm of the whole season. Max lead start to finish with no real threat. Charles was #2, Alonso's car let him down again, and Latifi DNF.... So yep par for the course.  On this the final episode of the 2022 season of the PitStop Podcast Tyler and Jordan discuss all the hi...

The penultimate race of the 2022 season has come and gone and the Brazilian GP might have been the most exciting race weekend of the year. The addition of the Sprint qualifying on Saturday made the weekend a 3 day long F1 extravaganza. Haas's Kevin Magnussen capturing pole position after a wild Qualifying was only a hint of the unpredictable and dramatic weekend to follow. George Russell capped of...

Max Verstappen won the Mexican GP on Sunday and in doing so secured his record setting 14th Win of the season. But is behaviour off the track is drawing criticism as he is boycotting all contact with Sky Sports out of spite for their coverage of his first "Championship". Tyler and Jordan discuss his and his teams pettiness along with a full breakdown of where Mercedes strategy failed and how the r...

The 2022 US Grand Prix was very eventful, Right from Sianz early exit to some costly pitstops. Alonso pulled a heroic save out of a massive crash with Lance Stroll and somehow carried on. And both Hamilton and Vettel lead this race which felt like we had time traveled to years long gone. All that before Max came charging back to win and secure the constructors title on an emotional weekend for red...

Max Verstappen is the 2022 World Champion! But it wasnt the corination or victory lap he was probably hoping that the Japanese Grand Prix would be. Frankly the whole race and the eventual victory was a mess. First the race itself was a sloppy wet delayed near write off, and by the time the half hearted attempt of a race was complete Max didn't yet know his fate. He only learned of his Championship...

The Singapore GP was a wet and wild ride. We saw almost half the field fail to finish on a very slippery and slick track. RedBull's Perez lead from start to finish to win a chaotic race. Braydon, Jordan and Tyler breakdown the race before looking at the other big stories from F1. Including what if any punishment RedBull might face is the rumours that they broke the cost cap last year are true? The...

A mixed up starting grid, a replacement driver, multiple virtual safety cars, Ferrari strategy and a controversial finish. That pretty much sums up the 2022 Italian GP at the Temple of Speed Monza! Max Verstappen inched one step closer to his inevitable World Championship but the ghost of his last championship returned following another late safety car that only opened old wounds for Mercedes fans...

SUPER MAX! or whatever you want to call Max Verstappen after another phenomenal win, this time at his home race the Dutch Grand prix! The Mercedes were almost the spoilers this weekend though having found fantastic pace. If not for a couple unfortunate late safety cars they might have won the race breaking Lewis's winless streak. And finally must we really continue to discus the disfunction and pa...

F1 is Back! After what felt like a much longer summer break then usual we got our first taste of racing again and it was a wacky weekend with over half the teams electing to take grid penalties to change major engine components Qualifying ended up being rather meaningless. The most dramatic elements of the race took place right away. Lap one saw Lewis Hamilton and Valteri Bottas out of the race fo...

The 2022 Hungarian Grand Prix was great if you're a fan of Max Verstappen who charged back from 10th on the gird to win, and more importantly increase his championship lead. It was also great if you are a fan of Mercedes who started the weekend by watching driver George Russel surprise the field by capturing his first ever pole position, then on Sunday his team mate Lewis Hamilton showed unbelieva...

The 2022 French Grand Prix was a disaster for Charles Leclerc who had the race in hand and put his car in the wall. Was it driver error or something mechanical? But that isn't where the trouble ended. Carlos Sainz was the victim of more bad decision making and disorganization within the team. Tyler and Jordan break all that down before talking Lewis Hamilton's 300 Grand Prix and is max Verstappen...

The 2022 Austrian Grand Prix was this past weekend and it showcased the 2nd Sprint Qualifying of the season before serving up a good Grand Prix with a little bit of everything. On this episode of the PitStop Podcast Braydon, Tyler and Jordan discuss the controversial conduct of some spectators, The continuing power unit failures that have left Ferrari perplexed, and Tyler digs into what has lead t...

The 2022 British Grand Prix was easily the most dramatic and entertaining race we have seen so far this season! On this episode of the PitStop Podcast Braydon, Tyler and Jordan discuss the controversial comments of Nelson Piquet, The Internal fights within the Ferrari garage and the sudden success of Carlos Sianz who not only secured his first Pole in F1 but followed it up with a guts performance...

The Canadian Grand Prix was awesome! Full of drama and very eventful, F1's return to Montreal couldn't have asked for more!  RedBull and Max Verstappen had to fend of a charging Carlos Sainz to secure the top step on the podium. And Lewis Hamilton found some real pace for the first time all year landing his second 3rd place finish of the season. Lewis's old rival Fernando Alonso had great weekend...

The Azerbaijan Grand Prix was a catastrophic failure for Ferrari as they watched both cars fail and handed RedBull their easiest one two finish of the year! Verstappen had more pace and cruised to an easy win to extend his championship lead. But the real fun and entertainment came lower down the field. George Russell continue his excellent form followed by teammate Lewis Hamilton who finished in P...

This years running of the prestige Monaco Grand Prix was anything but boring. Rain played a huge factor and added a very dramatic wrinkle to a race that has recently gained a reputation for being rather boring. RedBull took full advantage of the conditions and caught rival Ferrari on the back foot with some very savvy strategic pitstops; opening the door for Perez to take the lead and in the end w...

Formula 1 returned to Europe this weekend with great race in Barcelona and the running of the 2022 Spanish Gran Prix! It was a hot and very eventful race that saw Charles Leclerc take an early lead only to have his Ferrari power unit suffer a race ending failure which opened the door for both Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez  to claim to top steps on the podium. But their trip to a 1,2 finish for R...

Formula 1 held its first ever MIAMI Grand Prix this weekend and after much hype it sorta left F1 fans wanting for more.... The Track, the fake lagoon, it all sorta felt forced, and given the meteoric rise of F1 in North America hosts Jordan & Tyler ponder the risks of selling American race fans such an underwhelming  product? However regardless of the lack of heat the Miami GP still went off and g...
