Manage episode 497399527 series 3643186
In spite of rain delays and a slow-burn second half, a weekend at Spa somehow always ends up being fun — and this one was no exception. F1 is back after a two week break and Spa delivered another dramatic Formula 1 weekend. From the sprint race madness and rain delay debates to surprise performances from Hamilton, Albon, and Gasly, this episode covers the highs, lows, and head-scratchers of the Belgian Grand Prix.
We discuss whether the FIA is being too cautious with "rain" delays, dive into Piastri’s stunning overtake (it looked so familiar...), and speculate on Hamilton’s cryptic “08.08” Instagram post. Plus: Bearman’s lucky break in qualifying, Norris' tire gamble, and Nico Rosberg’s incredible gridwalk.
