Ferrari in the fight? McLaren in the mix? Red Bull's return? – 2024 Japanese GP Preview

After Ferrari’s 1-2 in Australia, can Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz race for the win again in Japan? Will Max Verstappen bounce back in Suzuka like he did last year? Have McLaren got the pace to beat Ferrari this season?

1996 World Champion Damon Hill and Spanish journalist Jesús Balseiro join Tom Clarkson on F1 Nation to answer all the big questions ahead of the 2024 Japanese Grand Prix.

Are simulator issues potentially causing Mercedes’ worst start to a season since 2012? And what does Daniel Ricciardo need to change after being outperformed by teammate Yuki Tsunoda in the first three races?

Plus, Damon and Jesús go head-to-head in Quiz The Nation.
