FBC Podcast #445- Austin USGP FanCast

At the US Grand Prix, we held out second-annual Fancast event and had a few folks willing to come on the show and share their opinion on Formula 1. We didn't speak too specifically about the USGP in particular but kept it topical about F1.I had a great time meeting old friends and a big THANK YOU to Mike and Diana for helping me with the technical side of things bringing gear from California to make it all happen.I hope you enjoy our conversation because it is truly what we have always said (since 2007) that our podcast is all about, friends having a beer talking about F1. That's exactly what we did at the Liberty Tavern at the Hilton Downtown in Austin Texas...while it rained outside. A lot!

FBC Downshift- How Shell helped Ferrari close the gap

FBC Downshift- How Shell helped Ferrari close the gap

I had a rare opportunity to attend the US Grand Prix as a guest of Shell V-power Nitro+ and I couldn't have asked for a better weekend. The folks at Shell just renewed their long-standing partnership with Ferrari but this time, there's a twist. It's that "twist" that integrated Shell even more in the Ferrari innovation block and is a reason for such performance gains from the team.Why does Shell do what they do with Ferrari? The crucible of F1 is the perfect lab in which to innovate, develop and perfect the best possible product for your car.I had a chance to catch up with Guy Lovett and Steve Bryce to discuss Ferrari's gains this season, how critical fuel has become to F1 and even the old days. We chat about the Shell/Ferrari partnership and Guy shares some of the challenges they faced in seeking massive gains this season.I can't thank Shell enough for the unfettered access to both their personnel and the Ferrari garage over the weekend. I hope you enjoy this interview.
