What Mercedes could do to replace Lewis Hamilton and Toto Wolff in 2021 if it is necessary are among the listener questions answered in the latest edition of The Gary Anderson F1 Show Podcast.

The former Jordan and Jaguar technical director is asked about what contingency plan Mercedes might have if Hamilton doesn’t sign up for next year and if James Allison would be a good successor to Wolff as team principal.

Safety-car procedure, Max Verstappen’s tyre failure, the suitability of ‘classic’ tracks such as Imola for modern F1 and AlphaTauri’s form are also discussed.

Having been involved in many driver decisions over the years, Anderson also explains the extent to which driving styles contribute to choosing who to sign, how to set the wheel alignment of an F1 car and where the next Adrian Newey might come from.

And it wouldn’t be a Gary Anderson F1 Show Podcast without a question about the iconic Jordan 191, with the reasoning for running monoshock front suspension revealed.

The Gary Anderson F1 Show is released weekly and available from all good podcast outlets, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
