Listen on

Episode notes

Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez completed a Red Bull 1-2 at the Bahrain Grand Prix, but was their success track-specific and will we see a closer race on a different surface in Saudi Arabia this weekend?

From the heart of the Bahrain paddock, Tom Clarkson is joined by 1996 World Champion, Damon Hill, and ESPN's Juan Fossaroli, to discuss what they think the competitive order of the grid is after 2024’s season-opener.

Red Bull’s Chief Technical Officer Adrian Newey drops by to talk about the RB20’s strengths and how it compares to last year’s record-breaking car.

You’ll hear reaction from Verstappen, Perez and third-place finisher Carlos Sainz.

Also on the agenda: does Charles Leclerc need to be more ruthless with his team? Why did Mercedes’ race pace fall below expectations? Are Aston Martin and McLaren stronger now than at the end of 2023? And what's behind Alpine's slow start?
