15-“..I can drive and own, simple really..”

Wednesday, April 22, 2026 • Duration 46:09

Another wait was finally over—and the roar of touring cars signalled the start of a brand-new season at Donington Park.

In this episode, Jordan and I dive headfirst into the opening rounds of the British Touring Car Championship, where the usual mix of chaos, contact, and close racing didn’t disappoint. One of the big talking points was how Jason Plato’s team fared as the season got underway—still early days, but plenty to unpack as the project begins to take shape. Meanwhile, Ash Sutton wasted no time stamping his authority on the grid, already looking like a serious title contender even at this early stage.

We also highlight the continued determination of Nicholas Hamilton, whose presence in a competitive field remains one of the most inspiring and compelling stories in the paddock—proving once again that he belongs on merit.

Across the Atlantic, it was another statement drive from Alex Palou, taking victory at the iconic Grand Prix of Long Beach in IndyCar Series. Naturally, that sparked a bigger debate: is Palou now firmly in the conversation as one of the top five motorsport drivers in the world?

Over in the Superbike World Championship, Nicolò Bulega continued his dominant run with another victory at the legendary TT Circuit Assen. It raises the question—are we witnessing the start of a runaway season, or will the competition close the gap as the calendar unfolds?

All this and much more features in a weekend packed with action—even in the absence of Formula One and MotoGP.

14-“..Home, sweet home..”

Wednesday, April 15, 2026 • Duration 41:55

It feels like our second home…that’s what Jordan and I always say whenever we head to Silverstone Circuit.

Over the years, we’ve experienced it in just about every way possible—watching Formula One, MotoGP and British Touring Car Championship, seeing Jordan compete in Formula Student, cycling 50 miles around the track, and even running a half marathon on this iconic circuit.

In this episode, we’re chatting about everything that makes Silverstone so special to us—from camping and race-day atmosphere to getting involved in activities, live concerts, great food, and even meeting riders. It’s the full experience of visiting one of the world’s most famous racing circuits—and why we keep coming back.

13-“..ITS TRANSFER TIME!! or is it?..”

Wednesday, April 8, 2026 • Duration 48:37

Is it ever too early to start talking about the future in motorsport? We don’t think so…

With only a handful of races gone in both Formula 1 and MotoGP, the rumour mill is already spinning at full speed. Whispers of driver moves, rider switches, contract clauses, and even potential retirements are beginning to surface across both paddocks—and you know we couldn’t ignore it.

In this episode, Jordan and I dive headfirst into the early “silly season” chatter. Who might be on the move by 2027? Which teams could be lining up big changes behind the scenes? And which riders and drivers might already be under pressure just a few races into the season?

Alongside all the speculation, we also reflect on the opening races, discuss current form, and give our honest take on who’s impressing—and who might need to start looking over their shoulder.

It’s topical, it’s opinionated, and as always… there may be a few disagreements along the way.

Tune in, get involved, and let us know your predictions… 👀

12-“..CRASH, BOOM, BANG..”

Wednesday, April 1, 2026 • Duration 59:40

Crashes, controversy, and domination… is motorsport heading in the right direction? 🤔

Is the new era of Formula 1 starting to feel more like a video game than real racing?

Are Aprilia Racing setting up a season of total control in MotoGP?

Is Superbike World Championship turning into a one-rider show?

And is Álex Palou already on course for another dominant year in IndyCar Series?

Jordan and I dive into all the action from last weekend — and there’s a LOT to unpack. From heavy crashes across multiple series to the bigger questions about rules, racing, and competitiveness.

With racing heading back to Europe, we reflect on the overseas rounds and what might come next…

11-“..look at us, we’re better than you..”

Wednesday, March 25, 2026 • Duration 54:23

The guard is changing…or at least, that’s how it feels after Round 2 of the Brazilian MotoGP.

Aprilia Racing really stamped their authority—looking seriously strong in the sprint race and then backing it up with a stunning one-two finish in the main race. That’s definitely given the likes of Ducati Lenovo Team, Repsol Honda Team and Red Bull KTM Factory Racing something to think about moving forward.

The race itself was shortened due to worsening weather and a deteriorating track, adding another layer of unpredictability to an already dramatic weekend.

Elsewhere, there’s a real sense that the next generation is on its way—young talent in Moto2 World Championship continues to impress, while Moto3 World Championship once again delivered the kind of close, edge-of-your-seat racing we’ve come to expect.

And that was just the start…

Over in Formula E, racing in Madrid on a rare non-street circuit made for a refreshing and exciting spectacle. In Formula 1, big news as Jonathan Wheatley is reportedly set to leave his role, with strong rumours linking him to Aston Martin F1 Team.

And then there’s Max Verstappen—an astonishing performance at the Nürburgring…followed by the sting of a team disqualification. Motorsport, eh?

10-“..Hey, what about us in the midfield..”

Wednesday, March 18, 2026 • Duration 52:44

Is it like the most expensive version of Super Mario Kart ever… or just pure pleasure watching F1 drivers go wheel-to-wheel using nothing but skill and experience? 🏁

That was just the start of what Jordan and I got into after the Chinese Grand Prix 🇨🇳

We’re talking:

🔥 McLaren heartbreak

😤 Max Verstappen frustration

😎 Lewis Hamilton all smiles

🌟 A teenager driving like a seasoned pro and taking the win

👏 Plus, some spectacular drives from the midfield — the likes of Oliver Bearman, Franco Colapinto and the Alpine F1 Team — but hardly any TV coverage… such a shame really.

And over in IndyCar… wait… no win for Álex Palou?! 😲

From drama to debate, the whole weekend gave us plenty to get stuck into.

🎙️ Listen now and let us know your thoughts

8-“..The Good, Bad and the Ugly of F1..”

Wednesday, March 11, 2026 • Duration 01:08:40

After months of rumours, speculation, excitement and a few worries along the way, the Formula 1 season finally got underway in Melbourne last weekend.

With brand new regulations, new teams, new drivers and plenty of unknowns, Jordan and I sat down to discuss and debate what the 2026 F1 season might have in store.

We also chat about the latest from F3 and F2, look back at last weekend’s IndyCar race – the first oval of the season, and talk about Plato Racing’s newly announced touring car drivers.

Plenty of opinions, a few disagreements, and lots of motorsport chat… definitely a conversation not to be missed.

8-“..Is he the pretender to the throne?..”

Wednesday, March 4, 2026 • Duration 50:10

⸻

The wait is over… MotoGP is BACK!

The 2026 season roared into life in Thailand and it absolutely delivered. From a thrilling sprint race to a potential shake-up in the main event, there was drama everywhere you looked.

Aprilia and Acosta impressed, while Ducati and Bagnaia didn’t quite shine as brightly as expected. Add in electrifying Moto2 and Moto3 battles and the opening weekend was an absolute treat for racing fans.

Over in IndyCar, the streets of St Petersburg saw Palou doing what Palou does best, while Grosjean made a welcome return to the front of the conversation.

Jordan and I dive into all of it — the highs, the surprises, the disagreements (there are a few!) — in another lively episode full of motorsport chat.

7-“..done and dusted already?..”

Wednesday, February 25, 2026 • Duration 34:01

Is it already game over in Superbike World Championship after just ONE round?

After Nicolo Bulega absolutely dominated at Australian Round, are we witnessing the start of a title procession… or is it way too early to call?

Are Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team already in serious trouble this season?

Is Francesco Bagnaia to Aprilia Racing in 2027 basically done and dusted? 👀

And is Damon Hill returning to his spiritual home at Williams Racing exactly what the team needs right now?

Jordan and I dive into ALL of it — strong opinions, bold predictions, disagreements, and a few controversial takes along the way.

6-“..will blue flags be needed for the Aston Martins?..”

Wednesday, February 18, 2026 • Duration 52:38

Controversy. Performance questions. Media overload.

From the yellow flag debate at the Bathurst 12 Hour…

To whether Aston Martin have fallen further back than expected…

To Romain Grosjean’s IndyCar future…

And the big one — is modern F1 becoming more soap opera than sport?

Jordan and I had a proper debate on this one — disagreements, strong opinions and plenty of passion.
