How big a mistake did McLaren and Lando Norris make in the closing stages of the Russian Grand Prix is one of many questions answered in our the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast.
Scott Mitchell and Mark Hughes join Edd Straw to look back at the race at Sochi and answer the key questions about McLaren’s decision making, explain how Max Verstappen managed to recover to second from the back of the grid and assess Lewis Hamilton’s difficult path to a 100th F1 win.
Valtteri Bottas’s grid penalty, specifically the reasons for it, are also delved into – as is his fortunate result having been on course to finish outside the points before the rain came.
Fernando Alonso’s argument he deserved to be third is also scrutinised, as is Carlos Sainz’s third place having led early on and the decisions made by all the winners and losers in the late race chaos.
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.
This week’s podcast is also available in video form:
