Monza - where history is made!

Kimi Antonellifought from 19th to become the first Italian in 60 years to win his home race! So where does Kimi's performance rank in all time best drives? And did Mercedes screw George Russellover with the strategy?

A nightmare for the sea of Ferrarifans as Charles Leclerccrashes out at 200kph and pushes Lewis Hamilton off the track. Did Charles deserve a penalty for the incident with Lewis? And how does it feel to crash that bad?

Not to mention, Alpine's Pierre Gaslyon pole after 9 years of trying! How did he finally pull it off?

It's Monza! DC, Naomi and Will answer your questions ahead of one of the most iconic races in F1, as they prepare to dive into the sea of red for Ferrari's home race.

Do Ferrarineed to pick a number one driver to avoid what happened in Zaandvort? Would it be Lewis Hamilton or Charles Leclerc? Which Italians face more pressure to win Monza - Kimi Antonellior Ferrari? And can Fernando Alonso score points again for Aston or will he be looking at the F1 exit soon?

The upgrade race is well and truly on! A big slap in the face for Red Bullwho have been told AGAIN they have the best engine so can't upgrade (despite not winning a single race yet...) and Toto Wolff is saying Mercedeshave run out of money for improvements (do we believe him??). Plus, Kimi Antonelliis taking an engine penalty in his home race, which could mean he starts LAST.

So, could Mercedes upgrade strategy cost them the title? Is it unfair to say Red Bull have the best engine? Why is Kimi taking the penalty now? And are Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris rubbing their hands together at all this news?

It’s been a big couple of weeks for Red Bull Racing! Max Verstappen re-signing then crashing out in Zandvoort, and Liam Lawson and Yuki Tsunoda stepping up for Isack Hadjar after his boxing accident.

So what’s the future at Red Bull Racing now Max Verstappen has signed? Has Max just shut all doors for Red Bull’s young drivers? And does Red Bull’s sister team, Racing Bulls, give them an unfair competitive advantage?

Plus, why did Carlos Sainz decide to stay at Williams when he’s driven for Ferrariand McLaren before? Was it the right call?

Was it fair of Mercedes to ask George Russell to move over for his championship rival Kimi Antonelli? Did Ferraricost Lewis Hamilton a podium by not letting him past Charles Leclerc? Can Lando Norris still defend his world title after back-to-back wins? And how is Max Verstappen feeling after crashing out of his last ever home race?

So, how surprised would we be if Kimi Antonelli kept this amazing form up till the end of the season? Who can take him on in the World Championshipfight? And what can we expect from Aston's engine upgrades?

We recorded before the news about Isack Hadjar missing the race but don't worry we will get into that in detail next week!

New team Cadillacsuddenly sacked their Team Principal Graeme Lowdonafter just 11 races, replaced immediately by Marcin Budkowski.

So, was it too harsh? As a new team what were they expecting? Is Budkowski the right man for the job?

And later, as we gear up for the last ever Dutch Grand Prix, will Max Verstappen be pissed off he won't have a home race any more?

Hungary did not disappoint! Lando Norris stormed to his first win since becoming world champion… slightly overshadowed by his teammate’s beef with Carlos Sainz.

So can Lando still win the world championship, as Kimi Antonelliextended his lead out front? Was Oscar Piastriright to get so angry at Sainz? Was the issue with the blue flags (that tell lapped cars to get out the way) just an excuse? And was it unfair to give Lewis Hamiltonanother penalty for speeding in the pit lane by 0.1kph?!

Did Max's daring overtakes at "The Green Hell" show why he's the best out there? How will he recover in time for the Canadian Grand Prix in a few days? Will other F1 drivers follow suit and should they be encouraged to?

The fans and drivers have spoken and F1 has listened. They’ve announced updates to the new rules ahead of the Miami Grand Prix.

But what do the super technical updates actually mean? Should you need an engineering degree to understand your favourite sport? Will they take us back to "real racing"? Will it be safer for drivers after Ollie Bearman's 190mph crash? And are these tweaks enough to stop Max Verstappenleaving F1?

We're only a few races into the season and the F1 team bosses are already playing musical chairs! Our WhatsApp chat was popping off when F1's best ever car designer, Adrian Newey, stepped down as Aston Martin team principle, thenAudi team principle Jonathan Wheatleysuddenly left the team.

Would a man like Wheatley fit in at Aston Martin under Laurence Stroll? Why would anyone want to take that job with drivers complaining of nerve damage? And was Christian Hornerever an option or should we stop talking about him?

Plus we react to viral videos of Max Verstappen racing in GT3 at the Nordschleife, and we share our best F1 memory thanks to a question from actor Danny Dyer.

There’s been a lot of news over the weekend affecting Formula 1 so we wanted to record an extra episode for you to make some sense of it all.

Strikes in the Middle Eastmean there’s question marks over two upcoming races, and some travel to the first race of the year in Australia has been disrupted.

And big rule changes are coming in June after Mercedesreportedly found a massive loophole- but will it be too late by then? What does this mean for the title race? And is it fair to penalise them for innovation?
