Navigating Emotions in Formula 1

Meg and Spanners are back to break down the race weekend in Shanghai! First, they discuss the double disqualification of Leclerc and Hamilton for not meeting technical regulations despite Hamilton's win in the sprint race (04:17). They applaud McLaren's excellent drives this weekend placing first and second, and they talk about where they stand on Piastri vs. Norris (16:18). Next, they discuss Red Bull and Verstappen's average weekend in a car he deemed difficult to drive (26:19) before getting into a terrible race for Tsunoda and Hadjar for Racing Bulls (40:40). After, they get into Mercedes and Meg's changing opinion of George Russell as well as the shocking news that Antonelli got ‘Driver of the Day’ (44:25). Finally, they share their midfield team takeaways, from the impressive race week for Haas and rookie Ollie Bearman (49:15) to the still unknown fate for Williams and Sainz still getting used to his car (52:37).
