The Saudi Arabian Grand Prix took place this weekend and it did not go down without any drama. Although Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen went head to head after a thrilling qualifying, a five-second penalty handed Piastri the win, putting him at the top of the Driver’s Championship standings. Charles Leclerc also secured Ferrari’s first podium of the season, while Lewis Hamilton’s struggles in red continued.

In this episode, we give you our live reactions to the race, including the moment that Saudi Arabia continued its perfect record of safety cars, and a breakdown of all the behind-the-scenes drama, including Lando Norris losing his edge, Alpine crashing out, and as always, our picks of the Grand Pricks podium. 

We’ll be back next week during the summer break with a deep dive into tyres—yes, tyres! We’ll explain how they impact driver performance and the strategies that shape every race, just in time before F1 returns for the Miami Grand Prix.
