2026 Season - Episode (F1 Preview with Damon Hill & Guenther Steiner)

In this edition of the show, we preview the 2026 Formula 1 World Championship with F1 World Champion Damon Hill, and former F1 Team Principal Guenther Steiner.

SPECIAL GUESTS:

DAMON HILL:

Damon Hill is a Formula 1 icon, in his 115 Grand Prix starts, he claimed 22 wins, 20 pole positions, 42 podiums, and became Formula 1 World Champion back in 1996.

Since then he’s established himself as one of the best expert commentators in the sport and this weekend he’ll be once again joining forces with our mates at Network 10 for their broadcast coverage of the 2025 Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix.

Damon joins us again on ‘The Podium’ to preview the 2026 Formula 1 World Championship, and gives us his thoughts on some of the biggest topics ahead of the new season.

GUENTHER STEINER:

Guenther Steiner is one of the most respected and recognisable figures in the Formula 1 paddock.

In a career spanning more than 40 years, he started off in the world of Rallying, before turning his attention to Formula 1, where he would go on to have senior roles with some of the top teams in the sport, including Red Bull, Jaguar and Haas, as their Team Principal.

A few years ago, he became one of the breakout stars of the hugely popular Drive to Survive series, and more recently, he’s established himself as an expert F1 commentator, in addition to being becoming the CEO of the Red Bull KTM Tech3 team in MotoGP.

In 2026, he’ll be once again joining forces with our good friends at Network 10 for their broadcast coverage of the 2026 Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix.

Guenther Steiner joins us on The Podium to play a special F1 themed edition of 'Kiss/Marry/Kick'.

Guenther also gives us his thoughts on Cadillac’s entry to Formula 1, opens up about his new job as CEO of a MotoGP team, and tells us who he thinks will be on the top steps of The Podium at Albert Park this weekend.
