With the 2026 F1 season on pause, we’re back with another episode of The Grand Pricks Culture Files, and this time, we’re putting Formula 1 driver brands to the test. From drinks to snacks to some truly questionable collabs, we try a range of F1 driver products and give our completely unfiltered, honest reviews.

In this episode, we taste and rate Lewis Hamilton’s non-alcoholic tequila Almave, Valtteri Bottas’s OATH gin, Lando Norris’s Monster Energy drink, the iconic Red Bull, the F1 x KitKat collaboration, Charles Leclerc’s low-calorie ice cream LEC, and saving the most chaotic for last, McLaren’s papaya-flavoured snus collab with Velo.

Along the way, expect plenty of off-topic tangents, deep dives into the stories behind each product, full price breakdowns, and our verdict on the ultimate question: is it actually worth your money?

We also discuss what kinds of products we’d love to see F1 drivers launch next.

If you’re into Formula 1, driver brands, or just love brutally honest reviews with a side of chaos, this episode is for you.

We’ll be back next week with another Culture Files episode ahead of the Miami Grand Prix, so make sure to subscribe and follow Grand Pricks so you don’t miss it!
