Box of Neutrals F1 Podcast

Ferrari threatens to quit F1 (again), Felipe Massa retires from F1 (again) and Peter McGinley is absent from the show (again). Plus Dieter Rencken reveals that he's actually South African, disqualifying him from ever sitting in the Australian Parliament. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This year's championship is rated on the patented flogometer, we receive a leaked recording of the proposed 2021 power units that sounds suspiciously like a recycled joke, and Peter's professionalism is called into question. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We revive the mythical Bathurst Man after Formula One's dalliance with pre-race driver introductions, and Peter’s McGinley's union steps in to curtail this week's recording after a number of Ferrari-esque technical failures. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michael and Rob are mysteriously absent from the potentially title-deciding USGP preview, so Peter and special guest host Trent Price reminisce about their plunger-related pastimes (not a euphemism). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

McGinley talks about his theoretical calendar exploits, Rob pays tribute to his F1 2016 teammate Jolyon Palmer and Michael asks Dieter what he Renckens about dyed blonde hair. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Peter imparts his wisdom regarding power sockets and instant coffee, Rob peaks behind the curtain of last week's show and Michael invokes the memory of the Maldonado era. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michael sweats it up in Malaysia, Peter McGinley fondly recalls the day he left his mark in Sepang, and Rob discusses with Trent Price his life regret of not learning to play a musical instrument. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We ask whether the championship is over six rounds from the finish and how we might keep McGinley interested if so, and we have an extremely visual discussion that we find funny but probably makes no sense on radio in retrospect. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michael sweats profusely in Singapore at the time of recording while Peter and Rob talk about Meat Loaf at the time of recording, and Dieter tells us what he Renckens about McLaren and Honda, even though it hadn't happened at the time of recording. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Italian Grand Prix underdelivers, Peter McGinley gives some dating advice, Michael talks about the word 'froth', and Rob walks through some of Box of Neutrals's lesser-known sound effects. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
