Leclerc vs. Ferrari & 5 Things To Watch For - 2022 Austrian GP Preview

Charles Leclerc needs to win. He needs to win against Max Verstappen, yes, but before that, he needs to win against Ferrari (as ironic as it sounds!). In the last 5 races, he's either had reliability or strategy - but never both. If we are to have a title battle in the 2022 Formula 1 season, we need Leclerc to score big in the races in July. Can Ferrari finally win in Austria? Their last win was back in 2003! The Inside Line F1 Podcast is brought to you by Eight Sleep, the most-trusted name in high-performance sleep.

Stop Inventing, Start Listening (ft. F1 TV's Ben Edwards) - 2022 British GP Review

It's hard to argue that Carlos Sainz won the 2022 British Grand Prix for Ferrari...and for himself, of course. He literally engineered his own race from the cockpit a la Sebastian Vettel style! But could Ferrari have done better with Charles Leclerc? Just why so much uncertainty when it comes to tyre strategy? Either way, Leclerc, the only driver on the hard after the Safety Car, was one of the reasons we had the epic 10-lap shoot-out to the chequered flag!  Legendary British commentator Ben Edwards joins us on this episode to re-live and review the 2022 British GP.

And chaotic races such as the 2022 British GP also make for some fun stats-facts; the ever-famous @f1statsguru aka Sundaram also shares his favourites from the same. Tune in!
