Hello everybody and welcome back to the V1 podcast with Matt and Tommy. It is a very dark day to be Tom Bellingham. And, you know, you don't have many dark days on this podcast. So I'll try not to bask in that glory because I have said many times that I pray for your downfall. And this is a moment in which has definitely happened. But at the same time, of course, from a. wider championship perspective it is devastating for the entertainment level of this championship because we've lost we've lost a soldier we have absolutely yeah like if you love him or hate to

max has happened provides the entertainment doesn't he for a lot of a lot of Formula one in general so the fact that he was in this championship fight and it was kind of keeping McLaren on their toes was such a fascinating thing but you know even you being the optimistic one can now surely admit it's done well we'll get into it we'll get into it uh but before we do that uh want to mention of course we're here in denver we've got a show on monday if you want to come and see us and we've also got other shows in dallas toronto uh chicago and new york new york is sold out but if you want to get your tickets there'll be a link in the description we'd love to see you there okay let's get into q1 which i know tommy will not want to speak about in the slightest uh but the

bottom five were Vastappen, Ocon, Colapinto, Sonoda and Bor Toletto. So the big talking point has to be, of course, Esteban Okon once again. I knew you were going to say that. I literally knew. We've got the same brain. Yeah, because I did it last time as well. It's Max Verstappen, out in Q1, the first time in his entire career where he has been knocked out in Q1 due to his own pure pace like putting a lap time on the board other times he's been out six times I think in total and the others have been either due to no time set or there's been a DNF due to an engine problem or a crash so this is this is madness to be honest with you he was on the back foot there were the first lap wasn't good enough we thought maybe he was just I don't know ramping up and of course

the track was evolving quite fast in Q1 of course after the rain that we'd seen before the sprint and then it finally drying out, but of course it's still being a green track, so not a lot of grip down. But he then sort of toodled around, and Ian was, because he had a lap on the soft, then he was doing cool laps to then get ready to essentially be last across the line, or at least as close as possible, because he knew that the track was evolving. So he wanted to stay out there and be sure to have a lap at the end, but it wasn't good enough. He wasn't able to beat Nika Holcomberg to make it through to Q2, which I don't think would be on anybody's predictions. Just utterly crazy to see this happen.

It is, it is crazy. Yeah, as you say, when he was kind of cruising around, having, you know, not done a lap that was good enough to get through, he was cruising around, F1 were playing his radio messages where he was, you know, you could tell he was panicked and saying, you know, the car's not right all this kind of stuff he obviously has been complaining about all these kind of things many many times this this season um but for him to go out in Q1 like you say the the first time it's happened in his career where he's just been literally slow um he's insane like I just I just don't understand this red bull in the fact that they and neither does he and this is the

problem this year and why it's flopping and changing so much he'll win a race and well he'll win like three on the bounce or whatever and be looking great and he's had the most pole positions this year and then suddenly they are literally the worst car on the grid i mean yuki senoda has literally qualified last because bartletto wasn't racing and it's the closest to the step and he's been probably all year in qualifying yeah that's not a good good reading for yuki sonoda the first time since the japanese grand prix in 2006 that both red bulls have been out in Q1, nearly 20 years worth of qualifying and this has not happened once to them. It's an absolute disaster. There's no way of sugar-coating this. They made changes, of course, after the sprint to help the ride height of, or the ride in general, sorry, of Max's car

because he was complaining lots about it bumping and bouncing and jumping. And he said that the ride had improved slightly, but he was having to underdrive the car. to basically keep it in a straight line and you know that there's something majorly wrong when Max struggles this much and yeah, it is going to be the hardest race for Max I know that he won from last, from 17th last year and he starts one position further forward

so champs your bag on? No, I'm kidding. But of course he's not anywhere near the same car it doesn't look like it's going to rain tomorrow. it will be a pretty decent drive if he even manages to score a handful of points. Yeah, I completely agree. Like, it's going to be impossible, I think, for Max to do anything like we saw last year. It doesn't have the car underneath him. He's really struggling with the pace.

And as you say, like, what has happened to this weather that has been promised? You know, we're having warnings of everyone stay inside because it's going to be so, and then we had almost a dry sprint minus one wet curb which obviously caught out a few drivers um to be fair the back straight was pretty and the back straight yeah yeah um and then yeah a completely dry qualifying it's been quite mad so um so much for the like the great all the graphics everyone was posting of 95% chance of rain all weekend but Brazil has still delivered both in the sprint and also qualifying and a lot of drama and uh a lot of entertainment um yeah some Some more entertaining than others if you're a Max fan.

A question from Fergie's right ref. Should Max change the engine, the setup and start from last? It really does depend whether Red Bull are completely in the dark as to why their car is clearly not working. I think that there's 100% the right decision to take everything that they need to for Max, put in a new engine, change the setup to something that might be a little bit better, even maybe just revert to what they had previously where Max was complaining about the riotite, but at least he finished fourth in the sprint.

There needs to be radical changes because whatever happened today cannot happen again tomorrow. And of course, they're in Park Fermi, so they can't change it unless he decides to start from the pit lane. But I think they have to. If Max genuinely comes away from qualifying and goes, I cannot drive this car, then if they stay there and they start,

start 16th and they take that track position over Ocon, Colabinto, Sonoda and Bortoleto, there's no guarantee that he'll move forward. No, it's not like a situation here where we saw before that they were trying to, I think in Mexico they were trying to set the car up for race pace, which sacrificed a bit of qualifying because we all know that Max has been very good at qualifying this year and has been able to put it in pole positions. But here, you know, it doesn't even matter. if for some reason that car was very good in race space because he's 16th and yeah probably going to have a dry race so he'll be able to pick off a few cars you can overtake in Brazil

but we've seen how tricky it is in 2025 so he is best off just going for something radically different changing the engine but I don't I don't know what he can do from there really to be perfectly honest and that's not even me being pessimistic like he'll get some points maybe but he's not he's not gonna like fly through the field

based on like what we've seen from the other teams unlikely very unlikely even coming from me so I can only imagine how you feel in your brain a question from underscore the Anne

should Max drive in one of the V-Carb cars for the rest of the season the fifth and seventh on the grid V-Cab I think that just like makes it even more painful to see because this red bull car is so confusing clearly that they've obviously gone down this very extreme route to give max what he wants and when it works boy does

it work and you know max is phenomenal he can he's won races this year by like 20 seconds but when it's bad it's not even just like a okay we're going to slot into like a p4. five or six like it's been like horrendously bad and this is the worst it's been you know to be both of them out you kind of expect yuki um to to struggle but max to be out uh it's an absolute shocker and uh yeah all the talk again will shift to should he be in the v carb because they've done really well just chuck him in now at this point bless you tommy just just just chuck him in like i know that they're fighting for second in the constructors but they're not going to be do they even really want to be second in the constructors? Yes, there's some cash involved in it,

but surely fourth and a bit more wind tunnel time is not the worst solution. It would just be great fun, wouldn't it, at this point? Max is not going to win the World Championship now, unless we have the most insane Grand Prix tomorrow, which actually, maybe it's not fully off yet, Tommy. Let's keep some positivity, but it is not looking that way, is it? But I know this is a jokey question from the ann but i would love to see it and i think a lot of people would love to see it as well right before we dive into the rest of the quality session i think it's worth mentioning uh and and sort of a light round of applause for the attempt that salbert made uh to to fix porteleto's car because it was so close we thought the delay of qualifying might have given the 10 minutes that that gabby needed to get

his car put together but sadly wasn't able to to get out for Brazilian GP qualifying um but it was It was close, wasn't it? It was looking like they actually may have been able to pull it off. It was very close. The poor Super Cup tried their best to, you know, delay things a little bit for Gabby. But sadly, for him, didn't work out. And so is a shame because, you know, he's been very impressive this season. And obviously, the Brazilian fans are very happy to have a Brazilian driver back on the grid.

And he'll be starting the race and last. Or maybe not if Max starts on the pit lane. True. But either of all. And finally, the mystery of Ockon in qualifying continues while Ollie Bearman was having questions as to whether he was getting pole position. Q2, let's head to that now with the five drivers out were Albonne, Alonzo Hamilton,

stroll and signs. Lewis Hamilton, of course, the big talking point from this one, 13th in the end for Lewis, while Charles LeClair at one point was on provisional poll in Q3. The Hamilton struggles continue. I think we were both, well, we were in our predictions, absolutely in the boat of if there is going to be a breakthrough performance for Hamilton, especially after the momentum, he's sort of been picking up a little bit. Of course, Mexico didn't go his way,

but just in terms of improvements within the car, the confidence and being closer to Shal, we thought it would all come to a head and this would be it. Brazil would be the performance that we know he can deliver. But 13th, just not good enough. You could see in that last sector in particular, just wrestling the car, just constantly sort of counter-steering.

hearing round the final corner. Of course, had that spin as well in free practice one, don't forget. And just generally, Ferrari have looked a little bit out of sorts.

Of course, Sharpe put in a brilliant performance, but Hamilton, not the first time he's been out in Q2. Of course, SQ2 as well, he was knocked out. Indeed,

but I think what's worse for Hamilton here is the fact that it is so far behind Charles. You know, we've had moments where Hamilton's gone out in Q2 and it's not to excuse it, but when Charles may be,

qualified 8th or 9th and then Hamilton squeaked through in like 11th or 12 or something is it's a lot smaller but for Charlotte to be up in third Hamilton down in 13th and a track that he loves and has done so well at in the past I think that's what makes it even tougher for him certainly so Hamilton I'm sure I haven't seen the post quality interview but I am imagining he will be very gutted with that performance as well as of course Lance stroll in 14th but quite close to Alonzo he well I was I was getting a bit nervous when Alonzo didn't improve because obviously there's this record now it's it's well in the 30s I'm sure it's like 34 35 in a row that Alonzo has outqualified stroll consecutively now and I thought

stroll might improve but you didn't get many improvers at the end of that session no and I think the big talking point from Q2 was not necessarily the bottom five but Olly Behrman being fastest and we genuinely were questioning whether this was some insane breakthrough where my flop curse has had a generational incorrectness about it. Even after the last time when you predicted him and he was fourth if he was going to go Yeah, he was like, I'm going to get poll now, Matt. Cheers for that. But yeah, it was a stunning performance from him in Q2. Let's head to the final quality session, Q3, with a top 10 for tomorrow's race.

Norris, Antonelli, Lecler, Piastri, Hadjar, Russell, Lawson, Behrman, Gassley and Holcomberg. Let's get into the first question from this segment, P1, Patreon member Frankie. Is Lando proving to everyone that he is truly championship material? For sure. Yeah, this was the question that we've asked on this podcast. We've said, you know, when the times get tough,

when there's pressure on his shoulders at this point in the season, can he deliver and can he deliver well? quite frankly, it was a phenomenal lap from Lando to take pole position when he had messed up that first lap, locked up into turn one, and he could have easily sacrificed a little bit of time, put himself on the back foot, and maybe started third or fourth tomorrow. But instead, he pulled it all together and still was nearly four-tenth clear of Piastri, his teammate, that you'd say that half a season ago, you'd be like, wow, that that's an insane gap between the two of them. But it's becoming more normal now. Lando is delivering so unbearable.

believably well. I said it on the watch along, but this was a lap and a performance that you go, yes, he is world championship ready now. I think it helps his confidence that Max has just, you know, him and Red Bull have just disintegrated. His championship challenge has gone. So there's an element of pressure gone there. And for Oscar as well, who's scrambling around trying to find the pace he had for most of this season. But that's, you can't take anything away from Lando because he's clearly got the confidence in the car that he didn't have in that first half of the season. And he's delivering to a level now that, I mean, he's literally topped every single session in a Brazilian Grand Prix sprint weekend where in the sprint it was slippery. He could easily have been Piastri in that situation, careering towards the wall.

He wasn't. He could have easily made a poor qualifying performance after that first mistaken Q3. And he didn't, and he's on pole position. So you have to say pretty, not flawless, because we just spoke about a mistaken Q3, but very close to it. very close to it but I think what you mentioned about the mistake in in Q3 maybe years gone by and we've I think fairly criticised Lando in the past for the mistakes that he's made under pressure and he himself has admitted that he's one of these drivers that does really struggle with the pressure and you do wonder in previous seasons had you know Lando had that moment

where he did mess up his first lap and because at that point it's insane to think that Lando was looking like if we'd had some kind of red flag, Lando's 10th and Oscar Piastri is on pole position and it's another flip of the championship. But instead, Lando just delivers an amazing lap to put four tenths on his teammate, hooks it all up and his confidence is just sky high at the moment, not just as he won, you know, the sprint and had like this perfect weekend so far.

He also, you know, got pole position and won so comfortably in Mexico last time. So he's on this amazing run now. And, yeah, it's not over, but you really wouldn't bet against Lando now. Like, he's looking so, so comfortable. And I think something you've just mentioned, the pressure of having Max Verstappen in a title fight has got to be completely different. No disrespect to Oscar Piastri than having your teammate, Oscar Piastri, who, himself is obviously struggling quite a lot. Let's head to the next question about Oscar himself,

P1, Patreon member Flyouns. What does Piastri need to do if he wants to bring the challenge to Lando? He needs to find something desperately, anything. I think what is really concerning is the gap again between them because had he just slotted into P2,

it gives an opportunity for a turn one dive bomb and when he's in the lead it's a we know how hard it is to overtake in 2025 so even if he doesn't have the pace of lando he could still probably win the race um you know even if lando's quicker and that that's a trend that we've seen a lot this year with the two mcclaren's of one of them is behind and quicker but it's not always easy to pass when there's not a huge advantage um so he really needed to to get you know p2 on the grid to be able to go for it it's not the you know, you'd think he's going to just be hoping that he can, based on Lando's pace,

get through to P2 and kind of damage limitation a bit, but I do, you know, he needs to be beating Lando very, very soon if he's going to have any opportunity because he's just not, he's just not at the moment, is he at all? He's not. Fourth isn't good enough, and we said coming into this Brazilian Grand Prix that a second and a second is fine, but he's crashed out of the sprint and now he starts fourth which yes is not absolute disaster territory it's not starting 16th like some uh thanks i'm sorry mate i just take the opportunities when i can yeah they're rare really apologize yeah they're very rare so it's literally the first time he's got out in q1 um what he needs to do i mean second place again has to be the aim i don't

think he beats lando tomorrow doesn't seem like it's going to be a difficult uh in terms of conditions-wise, race for Lando. He'll have to negotiate Kimmy Antonelli once again, make sure Kimmy doesn't do anything down the inside into turn one. But Oscar, it just again, he's too far away for me to have any confidence that he can turn this around quick time. It's not like we have half a season to go and this has just crept in. It's crepting at the absolute worst time for Oscar Piastri.

We've looked at his previous seasons and this part of the calendar has never been nice to him anyway and that trend is continuing it really is so what asking needs to do is find the pace he's not got the pace so he needs to find it in himself to pick himself up after the sprint and finish second tomorrow to have any hope that lando might have something go wrong or his car might have some kind of problems because right now that's what he has to kind of almost hope he needs hope he needs to hope for lando to mess up and at the moment it's just not looking like he's going to no not at all Okay, let's move on to the man starting in second position. P1PATRI member Sky Sarah.

What are the chances Kimmy overtakes Lando and gets his first race win? The chances are low. He's on the dirty side of the grid. I don't think the sprint race is particularly a good example of a like-for-like, just purely because it was slippery and the conditions can vary. Lando was convinced that he had the worst spot on the grid, but I'm not so sure about that. he got a pretty good launch and did very well.

The chances are low, as much as we have seen moves into term one at Brazil. It's such a short run down there. It is reasonably wide. You can try around the outside or down the inside and kind of go side by side for the first couple of corners in the centre of S's. But realistically, it's unlikely. I think Kimmy showed some good pace in the sprint. But again, we don't have that like-for-like evidence because they were never on the same tire.

they were on opposite strategies. But Kimmy's been really quick this weekend. And as much as you look at the on paper and you go, Oh, Kimmy Antoneli, P2, that's kind of out of position in comparison to you'd think. George Russell would maybe be there, but he's down in sixth. But Kimmy is there on pure speed. He's not there through luck. And he's probably the closest challenger to Lando that we could hope for.

So as much as it feels, do you kind of see what I mean? It kind of feels out of place. But it's not. And Kimmy has been very quick. And I think the chances are low, but they're not. possible. Yeah, definitely. I think this, you know, being a two-part question, what are the chances Kimmy overtakes Lando and gets his first race win if you take it as two questions? I think I'm more confident that he could potentially overtake Lando going into term one. I don't think it will be

easy. I do think it's a long shot, but we have seen people pass into turn one depending, you know, Lando has sort of starts out a lot better now. So that's not going to be as much of a problem for him. But we have seen second place take the lead more than a few times into Lagos. But in terms of getting his first race win, the only way I see that is if, you know, Lando Norris's engine goes kaput again or something because Kimmy is looking like very, very quick, but Lando just looks unstoppable. So it's going to be very hard for Kimmy to win.

But, I mean, even if he just bags like a P2 or a P3, I think, you know, Toto is going to be beaming at seeing how well Kimmy Antenelli's done this weekend. He's been really, really impressive. He certainly has. Next question, Craig Tilley 95. How has Kimmy proving to be so good at his first time in Inter Lagos? It's so true. It's amazing what he's managing to do, whether it's a circuit that just suits his driving style. because if you look at Kimi Antonelli this season,

a lot of the time you talk about Formula 2 drivers and you go, oh, well, this is a track they know so they'll have much more confidence. Kimmy's best races have been Miami and Interlocos so far. Both sprint weekends, which again is another thing that they say should be, in theory, more difficult for the rookies because they have less time to dial in,

less time to, you know, do their setups and dial into the weekend and the fact that Kimi has been absolutely rapid at these two sprint weekends that on tracks he's never driven for is really impressive and I don't know the answer no it's it's a big question mark I'm wondering whether that weird food preservative or whatever is is banned or not in Brazil I think someone said that he is it is not banned here so there's there's the answer um look I at George Russell was been a massive kind of question mark for me really like Kimmy Antonelli's been delivering massively and perhaps it's more just the fact of George having a pretty poor weekend and

the Merck is actually right up there as one of the fastest cars because we've seen it before George's had a win at Brazil and I think Mercedes have always been reasonably competitive here in the last few years so it's I think half of one and half a dozen of the other whatever the whole the phrase is, but I just feel as though, yeah, George is having a lackluster weekend, and Kimmy is really just proving that he's able to just hit the ground running with a sprint weekend. It's, Mercedes are very similar to Ferrari where they just don't really know what's going on and neither do the fans as to why they're sometimes pretty quick. There was, the cold conditions usually work well in their favour, but it's mad to think George was on mediums in that,

on that last Q3 lap trying to desperately find some kind of pace. But well done to Kimmy. Finally, well, not finally, but finally in terms of the top three, Charlotte Claire, just need to mention him because absolutely worth mentioning a P3. I mean, where did that come from then? You know, sprint quali was a disaster for, at least for my standards and for Ferrari standards, I would say. But this was, yeah, great.

Like, provisional poll was fast throughout most of qualified. it was yeah just again just a complete and utter bizarre thing to try and understand but i guess with sprint weekends teams are constantly learning and don't forget as well that after the sprint race they can change the setup they can change things to to hone it in for essentially the main 25 point part of the weekend and so perhaps charlerc found something and that's what's happened there yeah it's very much uh and also as well he was saying about the engines in the sprint not doing what they expected to do. They were saying that there was something around

that there was losing both him and Hamilton time. I know that Hamilton is obviously out in Q2, but perhaps there was a fix that Ferrari found there as well. Yeah, it's strange the form how much, you know, we've had different drivers doing well. Obviously, like, we'll get on to Ali Bearman in a bit. He kind of came out of nowhere, like up near the front. The Ferraris weren't there in the first qualifying session.

we had this this weekend on Friday and now now they're performing it well in LeCleur's case a lot better it was an absolutely insane end to that to that qualifying you know as there was always that moment where you knew if Lando hooked it up he'd be on poll but the fact that we were looking at you know Leclair Piastri, Behrman Antonelli it kept all like changing between them and was incredibly close and yeah she'll put in another another very good lap um to to be p3 when probably you know shouldn't be there with with what machinery's got underneath no definitely shouldn't be there tommy there's there's no doubt in my mind that was a phenomenal qualifying lap from charler not a fanboy and all that good stuff uh question for p1 on picture remember crazy caspar 3112

what happened to ollie in q 3 uh i think it's i'm not even going to criticize him he was what four hundreds of a second from starting fifth on the grid, less than the tenth from starting fourth. So for Ollie, I'm questioning the hash strategy a little bit of sending him out first both times in Q3. The run plan felt very much, very safe. It felt like just put it like sixth, mate, and we'll be really happy with that. We want to score points tomorrow. Don't want to risk a yellow flag. Don't want to risk a red flag at the end of qualifying. But at the same time, I would have liked to have seen at least one of those laps be a little bit more on the aggressive side of the run plan. But that didn't happen. And I feel as though that second and final

lap that we saw from Ollie was perhaps a little bit of overdriving. But at the same time, his teammate Esteban Okun was 17. The fact that Ollie Bearman even took it to Q3 and had us wondering whether he was going to be in the top five was a brilliant job from him. But yeah, just perhaps a little bit on the overdriving side in that final lap you do wonder if the the excitement of like him maybe knowing often in that first run what an amazing kind of opportunity this is to get a really really good result it was 800 off pole in third place after the first run exactly so like he was probably pushing it maybe you get to start to think like oh if I could be later on the breaks here or or do this you know I've got an amazing opportunity to do it and what the what surprises

me about this is you mentioned about the run plans and yeah they played it very safe but you can argue that you know there are any couple of positions above 10th anyway as if it's gone all wrong so yeah not not the right opportunity for house because I think it could have been so much better for them a little bit on bearman's side as well for overdriving but we're just seeing what a special talent is now and there'll be moments where things don't go as way Of course, we've, since the, since we recorded the sprint, we've found out that he's got another penalty point, which I haven't spoken about yet, but with the Lawson incident, I don't know if you want to go further into that, but very strange that they kind of both ended up

with penalties in that situation. Yeah, so Ollie lost some penalty points, thankfully for him. So he's on nine out of 12 at the moment. Ollie got the penalty point for the squeeze on Lawson prior to the corner in the sprint, which the stewards deemed to be unfair, and so gave him that. But then Lawson was then penalised for the actual corner. So that was, they deemed him to be at fault. Because of the racing rules.

Yeah, exactly, for the racing rules. And they couldn't deem whether he was fully alongside Olly Behrman from all of the different angles that they have, which I found Which is crazy because it was a perfectly legitimate overtake Ollie had lost so much momentum going to that corner of course Liam Lawson

was going to go for it It just, yeah It's just these racing rules Isn't it? Unfortunately like The way it's written They always have to go with What the rule book says

And not common sense Of like it's a racing incident Liam Lawson Had every right to go for that corner And go for that move Yeah And they've just banged wheels Or whatever so

Yeah. Yep, so Olly Beerman on nine penalty points. Liam Lawson's on eight as well, so worth keeping an eye on those for the next few Grand Prix weekends. But back to the qualifying and a final few thoughts. First and foremost, Pierre Gasley, P9 in the Alpine, and of course got a point in the sprint, which we forgot to mention in our haste of trying to get the podcast out in time. So Pierre Gasly is having an absolutely amazing weekend. And I love the sort of joke that you told me that maybe you're

read online about the fact that he's sort of been withholding his pace until Colapinto signed a contract and now he is just ridiculously fast again. Yeah. Yeah, Gazzley has been absolutely amazing this weekend so far. If he manages to bag some more points, you know, he's in the talk of one of the drivers of the weekend for sure. And we'll be getting a tasty little grade in driver ratings, which I'm sure you're all looking forward to. And Gazley is, he's been good around here, obviously got the podium last year. And we know that that Alpine has struggled so much this year to get anything. And this is the thing up and down the grid.

You know these drivers are very competent drivers. Gazzley's won a Grand Prix. But it just hasn't had the machinery. But for whatever reason, it's working for him this weekend. He's doing an incredible job. Certainly is. Nika Holkenberg also made Q3. so a shout out to him

but yeah Pierre Gassley what a performance so far and then also the V-carbs fifth and seventh for Hadjar and Lawson tomorrow which once again they kind of came out of nowhere and stole a little bit of the thunder

that Olly Bearman had had had through Q2 and beyond but yeah great from Hadjar, great from Lawson and the rookies really shone in a weekend where you would think maybe they wouldn't considering it's Brazil

yeah indeed. It's slightly nerdy observation that I've just seen looking at the qualifying result is normally you get at least some two by twos, not a single teammate pairing next to each other on the entire grid, which is quite cool.
