Magazine Show: Budget Cap, Banned Tech, and Junior Series Chat

Ex F1 Boss Matthew Carter joins Spanners and Trumpets for another walk on the wild side of F1. They discuss what teams REALLY focus on in testing, whether glory laps are real and what chances the teams realistically have this season, in brutal, but entertaining terms. Also, Carter spills the beans as to the REAL cause of Renault engine woes at the start of the hybrid era and dissects the reasons why certain teams run far less than others in testing (Hint: It’s not always the PU, sometimes it’s a word that rhymes with money).  Finally, F1 TV, new race locations, and naturally the eponymous Carter directive somehow manage to make our docket, as if we weren’t busy enough!

With Spanners back in the saddle, no topic is safe and this week he leads Trumpets and Sparkles on a whirlwind tour of car launches and teammate battles as the plucky trio gets back to business. Who had the best chassis and pay-drivers dominate the shout past each other portion of the show and there is a moment of silence for Spanner’s memory, as he momentarily failed to recall which team Magnussen drove for (thank goodness THAT wasn’t on the quiz episode)...

Join Trumpets as SomersF1 leads him on a merry journey into the deepest, darkest corners of the 2018 season's technical regulations. Ever wonder what breather fluid is? Bet you do now, and happily enough, Somers obliges by explaining all. Charge cooling, Halo, and the truly diabolical sting in the tail of the 3 PU season limit are just some of the answers that await all those brave enough to ride!! Must be 1.1 Spanners to enter....

Spanners and Trumpets get a tour of the paddock led by none other than Fake Charlie Whiting (Mark McArdle). From Race Control to the Medical Car, to inadvertently whacking Michael Schumacher, Mark gives a behind the scenes look to the starry eyed duo, as well as the benefit of his opinions on a variety of current F1 subjects. And Spanners completely spanked Stevens in karting (Spanners totally didn’t write this sentence). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After an extended vacation, a brand new year sees Spanners, with Trumpets and Sparkles, immediately gets down to business by being told he is wrong about the career of Kubica. Wasting no time, he then schools Sparkles over pay drivers and in a fit of kitchen sinkism, they then discuss some interviews with the likes of Chase Carey and Paddy Lowe, before actually remembering Comment of the Week.
