We evaluate the early progress of Formula 1’s five big-name movers so far this season in the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast.
Scott Mitchell and Mark Hughes join Edd Straw to discuss the progress of Daniel Ricciardo at McLaren, Carlos Sainz at Ferrari, Fernando Alonso at Alpine, Sebastian Vettel at Aston Martin and Sergio Perez at Red Bull over the first five races of the season.
We delve into the reasons for Ricciardo’s struggles at Monaco in particular, as well as how Sainz has adapted well to life at Ferrari.
Alonso’s form at erratic Alpine and the significance of Vettel’s outstanding performance at Monaco are also explained.
And with Perez now having had his five events to acclimatise, why is he finding things harder than he expected at Red Bull?
There’s also a look ahead to the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, as well as a discussion of Max Mosley’s legacy in F1.
The Race F1 Podcast is released at least once a week and available free to subscribe to from all good podcast suppliers, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
