F1 Livestream 1014 (post-Singapore GP) with Peter Windsor
There was still a buzz in the air when Peter and viewers/listeners in this livestream looked back at the Singapore GP. There was of course lot of talk about the talent of Max Verstappen - and also of the state of play at Ferrari, Mercedes and McLaren. Peter's opening monologue celebrated the arrival of Rwanda as an F1 venue - and he also looked back at the Natal GP near Durban, where both Jim

F1 Livestream 1007 (post-Sepang, pre-Singapore) with Peter Windsor
Falling, as it did, between Sepang and Singapore, there was plenty to debrief and preview in this livestream with Peter. Singapore will be a sprint weekend, which nudges things a little further in the direction of Red Bull and Max Verstappen - and on this Wednesday morning also came the news that George Russell will be starting his factory Merc from the back of the Singapore grid (due to the new p
2026 F1 Bahrain GP in Malaysia (Sepang) - full analysis by Peter Windsor
From Friday through to Sunday, Peter analyses the key elements of F1's return to the legendary Sepang track in Malaysia, scene of the "Bahrain GP" that was cancelled earlier in the year due to the unrest in the Middle East. After a slow start from the pole on intermediates in the wet, Max Verstappen went on to score his first win of the season for Red Bull-RBPT Ford, decisively bea
2026 F1 GP of Azerbaijan - full analysis with Peter Windsor
Excluding the staged one-twos of the Michael Schumacher/Ferrari era, Baku produced the closest F1 finish since...Jerez, 1986, when Ayrton Senna's Lotus-Renault crossed the line only 0.014 ahead of Nigel Mansell's Williams-Honda. At Baku, 2026, Max Verstappen's Red Bull-RBPT-Ford was only 0.196 behind George Russell's winning Mercedes as they crossed the line, bringing to an end
F1 Livestream 0916 (post-Madrid) with Peter Windsor
Peter joins F1 fans in the afterglow of the Spanish GP in Madrid. What did they think of the circuit and the race? And what of the storylines - of Lando's near-win, of another big day for Kimi and of Max at this best in a less-than-great racing car?It's non-stop in this latest livestream - with all the usual by-roads along the way.Become a member of Peter's YouTube channel: https:/
2026 F1 Spanish GP (Madrid) - full analysis with Peter Windsor
Lando Norris led from the pole but his win in Madrid fell away when a brief Virtual Safety Car intervention came a few seconds too late for him on lap 15 (of 57): by the time he had completed another lap the race was on again. Charles Leclerc, who didn't stop under the VSC, then led for Ferrari for most of the distance but ultimately it was Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli who scored the eighth
2026 F1 Pirelli Italian GP - full analysis with Peter Windsor
Sir Lewis Hamilton finished only P6 for Ferrari but for the Tifosi at Monza there was still much about which to go crazy: Kimi Antonelli, the boy from Bologna, started his Mercedes from P19, led the race, dropped to P6 in a tyre change - and then regained the lead to win. It was an epic drive in an epic, baking-hot race and it marked the first home win for an Italian driver at Monza since Ludovico
F1 Livestream 0826 (post-Zandvoort) with Peter Windsor
Lots upon which to focus after the (last) Dutch GP at Zandvoort, as can be seen from the chapter headings below. The race resulted in a second consecutive victory for McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris. Mercedes finished two-three ahead of the two Ferraris - but there was plenty of intra-team in-fighting behind those four results...particularly at Ferrari. Max Verstappen's race ended with
2026 F1 Dutch GP - full analysis with Peter Windsor
The diminutive Zandvoort circuit, hosting its last Dutch GP, proved to be less energy-rich than expected - but did produce a spectacular race, punctuated by Max Verstappen's first-lap crash; an absorbing battle between McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris and Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli; the usual strategy mis-management at Ferrari; a McLaren own-goal on Oscar Piastri's side; and ultima
Allan Moffat and Jim Smith - in their own words (Indy, 1965) with Peter Windsor
This podcast features two motor racing legends with very different talents telling their very different stories of how they came to be a part of Colin Chapman's winning team at Indianapolis in 1965. That was the year Jim Clark stunned the motor racing world not only by becoming the first driver to win at Indy with a rear-engined car (The Lotus 38-Ford V8) - but also by clinching the F1 World
Denny Hulme - in his own words with Peter Windsor
A true F1 hero, Denny Hulme dug deep in 1970, when his friend and mentor, Bruce McLaren, lost his life in a Goodwood testing accident. At the time, Denny was in the very early stages of recovery from extensive burns to his hands - mainly to his left hand and forearm but also to his right hand - after surviving a spectacular methanol fire at Indianapolis. Eschewing advice from the medics, Denny the

Emerson Fittipaldi - in his own words with Peter Windsor
I sat down with Emerson Fittipaldi in his São Paulo office in 2015 - to talk with Emerson the double World Champion (1972, 1974), double Indy 500 winner (1989, 1993) and all-round father of all that is great about Brazilian motor racing. What a driver. What a person.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of executive jets: https://jetcraft.comTo TrackNinja, a lap-timer
Niel Allen - in his own words with Peter Windsor
Niel Allen is without question one of the fastest racing drivers I ever saw. A quiet Australian who did things his own way - first by building a commercial property empire in Sydney, then by racing a succession of stunning race cars prepared by the unmatchable Peter Molloy - Niel by the late 1960s/early 1970s was right up there with the best of the many internationals who raced in Australia at tha
Niki Lauda - in his own words with Peter Windsor
In an interview recorded with Peter in early 2014, Niki Lauda talks about his racing career, his business world and life in general. Niki was World Champion in 1975 and 1977 with Ferrari and in 1984 with McLaren-TAG Porsche; in 1976 he famously survived a fiery crash at the Nürburgring; and, away from racing, Niki founded Lauda Air in 1979; and, as non-executive Chairman of AMG-Mercedes F1, in the

Mark Slade has served as Race Engineer and Chief Engineer at McLaren, Mercede
Camchat 0720 (post-Belgian GP) feat. Cameron with Peter Windsor
Although this Monday morning debrief kicks off with chat about the Belgian GP trophy and Acting the Goat, it quickly dissolves into analysis of the George-Lewis clash on lap one; the ever-expanding excellence of Kimi; the heroism of Max; and the P2 for Charles and Ferrari. We know you like your coffee, but, on this occasion, post-The Open (let's hear it for Foxy!), post-The World Cup (even D
F1 Belgian GP - full analysis with Peter Windsor
Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli scored a perfectly-judged win at Spa after passing the Ferrari of Charles Leclerc in the closing stages - after making the pass, you could say, that he had been denied at Silverstone.

F1 Livestream 0707 (post-British GP) feat. Mark Slade with Peter Windsor
It being the Tuesday after the British GP, Peter begins this livestream by asking Mark about the key elements of the race - the component failure on Kimi Antonelli's Mercedes; Max Verstappen's DRS drama; and the relatively low top speeds at Silverstone (with associated discordant engine notes). Mark and Peter then field a huge number of great questions and comments from viewers. Lots o
2026 F1 British GP - full analysis with Peter Windsor
Although F1's 2026 technology looked a bit stretched around the usually-brilliant Silverstone GP circuit, raw human emotions surely abounded. Charles Leclerc is a winner again; Kimi Antonelli was the star who almost made it; and Max Verstappen was the despondent survivor of another big moment after again driving his heart out. With George Russell inheriting P2 after Kimi's late-race demi
F1 Livestream 0701 (British GP preview) with Peter Windsor
Double-heading straight to Silverstone, many are the F1 storylines: can George win again? Will Kimi upstage him on home ground? Will Ferrari and Sir Lewis re-capture their Spanish magic? Will Max and Red Bull leap still further towards the front? Or will the World Champions - McLaren - finally get it together? All this and more as Peter takes your live questions and comments on YouTube chat.Visit
Camchat 0629 (post-Austrian GP) feat. Cameron with Peter Windsor

2026 F1 Austrian GP - full analysis with Peter Windsor
George Russell may have converted his controversial pole into an Austrian win but it was his Mercedes team-mate, Kimi Antonelli, and Red Bull's Max Verstappen, who lit up the skies above Spielberg. Max, after pushing George hard in the second half of the race, drove brilliantly into P2; and Kimi, who finished third, closed quickly on both George and Max in the closing laps. It was a stunning
F1 Livestream 0624 (Austrian GP preview) with Peter Windsor
The focus in this livestream is on the upcoming Austrian GP but - as ever - there were plenty of distractions along the way...like our first question of the day - from Jim Hontz: "Name your top three drivers from each of the decades, starting from 1950..." Needless to say, Peter didn't run the full gamut of those times - but the tone, at least, was set. Anyway, this podcast is cram
2026 F1 Barcelona-Catalunya GP - full analysis with Peter Windsor
This day in Spain will famously be remembered for the first Ferrari victory scored by Sir Lewis Hamilton. And it was no gift. After starting from the front row and splitting the two factory Mercedes in the early race phase, Lewis dramatically chose to make a second tyre change - to medium Pirellis - at the perfect moment. His mid-race pace on the softer tyres quickly elevated him to the front w

No need for caffeine on the side.With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's largest buyer and seller of
2026 F1 Monaco GP - full analysis with Peter Windsor
Although Max Verstappen's qualifying brilliance on Sunday came to nought - came to a dead stop on the grid, just after lights-out - there was still a Monaco GP to be run. There were penalties aplenty; there were Safety Cars; there was a standing re-start; and drivers like Ferrari's Charles Leclerc hit the barriers. Through it all, though, from the front, from the pole and with fastest la
F1 Livestream 0603 (Monaco GP preview) feat. Mark Slade with Peter Windsor
Mark Slade joins us live for this Monaco GP preview - and of course there'll be no shortage of storylines. How will the electric-ICE 2026 F1 cars perform around Monaco? Will the great corners in the Principality still be great? Which cars will the circuit favour? Can Monaco's hero, Charles Leclerc, bounce back from a difficult Canadian GP weekend? Or can Sir Lewis Hamilton sustain his mo

2026 F1 Canadian GP - full analysis with Peter Windsor
What a race! Kimi Antonelli and George Russell fought for the lead until lap 31, when George's Mercedes ground to a halt with a battery issue. Kimi then cruised to his fourth successive victory, leaving the P2 spotlight on Sir Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari) and Max Verstappen (Red Bull-RBPT-Ford); Sir Lewis won that battle. The McLaren-Mercedes? After qualifying on row two, they were out of it vir
Camchat 0525 (post-Canadian GP) feat. Cameron with Peter Windsor
It's the Monday morning after the Canadian GP and so naturally all talk (or most of it) is about that amazing George-Kimi duel and the repercussions thereof. Plus Sir Lewis. Plus Sir Max. Plus a little bit of McLaren tyre strategy. Plus some Charles, too.

With the FIA announcing significant changes to the F1 technical regulations 24 hours before this livestream, much of the chat - and Peter's opening monologue - is given to how the cars - and drivers - may now look in Miami.

Round three of the 2026 F1 World Championship - the all-new F1 championship - resulted in a second consecutive win for Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli.

New regs or not - McLaren-Mercedes in the race (or not): nothing could detract from the enormity of this day in Shanghai - from the first GP win for Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli. From the pole, he seized the race lead from Ferrari's Sir Lewis Hamilton on lap two - and was thereafter never headed. Lewis re-applied pressure after the pit stops; and team-mate, George Russell, was up their in P

2026 F1 Australian GP - full analysis with Peter Windsor
The factory Mercedes team - George Russell heading Kimi Antonelli - duly finished one-two in Melbourne, exhibiting more power, more downforce, more grip and more balance than all of their opposition - and capped all of that with perfect strategy calls.

It's the Tuesday before the Australian GP - Round 1 of the 2026 FIA F1 World Championship.

And so it ended. Max, Oscar and Lando finished one-two-three on the Abu Dhabi road - but it was Lando who was thus ahead in the final standings of the FIA Drivers' World Championship by the margin of two points.

These were just a few of the topics covered on this particular morning, when the coffee was flowing freely and the su

Against all odds - against all logic - Max Verstappen and Red Bull-Honda decisively and clinically won the Qatar GP on Sunday, with McLaren-Mercedes finishing only P2-P4, sandwiching the Williams-Mercedes of Carlos Sainz. In what will be remembered as the most inexplicable strategy call of the 2025 season, both McLaren drivers were told to stay out when a Safety Car was deployed on lap seven. Thus
Camchat 1201 (post Qatar GP) feat Cameron with Peter Windsor
No prizes for guessing the hot topics in this chat with Cameron. McLaren's Qatar strategy - or lack of it - forms the basis of the Cam-Peter interchange, with Cameron doing his best to wind up Windsor wherever possible. And Windsor, of course, takes the bait.

Sit back to enjoy another Max Verstappen demonstration of how it should be done - this time with a Red Bull that was virtually undriveable on Friday, so bad was its bouncing. Max struggled through to P4 in the Sprint but, after changes made to the car before qualifying, recovered to start the main race P3. That became P2 after the first corner and then P1 when the McLaren-Mercedes made their firs

It's all eyes on Vegas as Mark Slade delves into the nuances of car and tyre set-up for the fast street circuit - fast in the sense of long straights (as distinct from quick, demanding corners).
