What an embarrassing weekend for Ferrari once again. -Their engines blew up before they could f**k up with strategy. -Double DNF for the team -Charles cant catch a break after their great start -Has been on pole almost every race and not much to show with P3 in standings\ -Ferrari single lap pace greater than red bulls, unfortunately we didnt get to see them race each other much -4 total DNF’s for Ferrari Power units in one race, very bad look, all very similar -Carlos and Charles to start taking engine penalties soon, furthering the difficult road back RED BULL ... in a perfect position to run away with Constructors/Drivers, which isn’t ideal for fans. -Redbull once again looking stronger in race pace, while turning around reliability issues from earlier in the season -We want to see a competitive season, and looks like that may be difficult currently -We do have a potential Lewis/Nico situation developing -Checo and Max both with great starts -Checo really hard on the tires his first lap, eventually lost time to because of it -Setup wasnt optimal as well, according to him -Very bad pit stop for checo, seemed to be like that for many teams here though -Max race pace ultimately much better than checo, better setup -Hopefully redbull doesnt just run away with it and we have a good competition from here on out MERCEDES George maintains his P5 or better streak in all races this season with his 3rd podium  -Really showing why he was so coveted by Toto and MErc -Meanwhile they look like they’re trying to kill lewis on porpoise -Lewis, Hi, Toto again…. -Still finished p4, but could barely get out of the car with that bad back -Merc can fix the problem somewhat, by raising car height, but that would really hurt performance -So killing lewis and George or being fast is their dilemma -Teams also calling for an investigation and rule changes to mitigate porpoise, which isn’t fair to redbull who have kept the problem under control McLAREN Danny bounces back with a good race after a terrible qualifying for the team -Team orders screwed him earlier in the race getting stuck behind lando -Manages to finish P8, albeit with 2 Ferrari DNF’s -Lando finally getting team orders at the end, wasn’t too happy about it RACE STORYLINES Good to see the OG’s all have a decent race, Lewis, Fernando, Seb, and Danny -even though Fernando pulled a shady move in quali blocking Albon’s fast la with a fake loss off control -Seb lock up and great recovery spin saved his race, had he not potential P4/P5 -Gasly finishing P5 was huge as well, after his bad luck this year -Yuki getting the black and orange flag, and alpha tauri just throwing tape on it -Piastri rumors to Williams next season heating up, taking Goatifi’s seat MISC Let’s talk about Suleyman’s comments and the mea culpa that followed -This is the problem with racing there and Saudi’s being in leadership positions -Sportswashing is a huge problem and we can see that with LIV Golf -People like Pat mcafee, this past week, show why its so effective CANADIAN GRAND PRIX -Been 3 years since we’ve been back -With Lance and Goatifi having comically bad seasons, not much hyp for them this home GP -Fun track with overtaking opportunities, somewhat like Baku -Danny had his first career win here

We discuss Lance Stroll's primal scream; LeClerc's busted pit wall team; Carlos Sainz Sr., the King of Cool; and give Checo his due as a great champion of a triple crown race.

Max gets lucky with Charles DNF. Charles and Ferrari have their first reliability issue of the year. Lewis with his best race of the season. And much more...

Welcome back to our dictator tour, its been a while since Jeddah…. and here we were in DesantisWorld, as we leave it to the home of the Dolphins to murder the porpoise, snow flakes be damned, in what was a some what entertaining race made better by a late safety car. Verstappen wins while reliability still cause for concern with checos’s Red Bull.  Carlos Sainz bounces back, even with another crash this weekend, and secures the podium and making Charles blush in the cooldown room. Lewis Bottas Hamilton not happy once again as George keeps his streak alive and beats the 7-time world champ yet again. The Mclaren Beckham curse is real, and RIP to Seb and Mick, and much more in a comedic and cringe Sky F1 weekend 

Red Bull uses the oldest trick in the books to gain points on Ferrari, finishing a race, while Charles and Carlos self-Imolate. Lando gets another podium in the country of Italy as Toto puts the kids gloves on for Lewis, and much more during a wet and wild FORMULA 1 ROLEX GRAN PREMIO DEL MADE IN ITALY DELL’EMILIA-ROMAGNA 2022, or you could just say Imola.  Show note: The Ted Kravitz joke we couldn’t think of was that he said “the Honey Badger was becoming a lab gerbil” by being the first to try out slicks after the dry lines appeared.

Charles dominates, as Max’s Redbull fails, yet again. Lewis gets the Bottas treatment, and Mclaren has a great bounce back weekend that looks good on paper...but was Danny screwed out of P5? Latifi and Stroll take the Mazepin mantle of pay driver hate. Not the most entertaining race but, at least we’re out of the land of the Bonesaw.

Max and Charles battle till the end. Checo qualifies on pole by can't quite finish strong. McLaren look horrendous. Oh yeah, and the track was less than nine miles away from a missile attack. All in a day's work. Zeke and Edmond catch up on all the developments.

Red Bull gives you swings, apparently. Ferrari goes 1-2...and Haas finishes Round 1 at P3 in the Constructor's Race. Wow!

An absolutely unprecedented finish in Abu Dhabi. The Dutchman, Max Verstappen takes the World Championship, his first, over 7-time champion Lewis Hamilton.

Zeke and Edmond chat about: the second round of the human rights violating tracks, Lewis' incredible angry driving, Max's brake test, and this wild Jeddah track.
