About the episode
Meg and Spanners are back for the first race of the 2025 F1 season! First, they discuss the track conditions and Max Verstappen’s race, before getting into the biggest story of the race: Ferrari (08:07). They break down Ferrari’s strategic decisions differing for Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton, and decide where they should keep their expectations for the rest of the season. Next, they applaud McLaren’s performance (21:48), and George Russell’s drive with Mercedes (35:22). Meg lavishes on Williams’s success this week, with Alex Albon finishing fifth (40:09). After, they grade the rookie performances, from Kimi Antonelli’s so-so race to Isack Hadjar and Liam Lawson’s lackluster day (47:54). Finally, Meg and Spanners share their opinions on the loss of the fastest-lap point (64:03).
