Credit: LAT ImagesMassa announced his F1 retirement at the end of 2016 but was recalled to Williams after they needed an experienced driver at the last minute. Fast forward one year, and with the Williams team fifth in the championship standings, they’re looking forward to the 2018 season and their driver lineup. That won’t include Felipe Massa, as the Brazilian driver has announced his second retirement from the sport.
He said: “As you know, last year I decided to announce my retirement from Formula One, but because of Williams’ request, I decided to do another season. But this time will be my last races in Formula One, so I’d like to say thank you very much to my family, my friends, my sponsors and my fans, you guys support me a lot.”
He mentioned moving on to other racing categories next year, although of course nothing has been confirmed as yet. Meanwhile, Williams are considering their 2018 selection, with Robert Kubica still in the mix as well as current driver Lance Stroll, ex-Renault man Jolyon Palmer and Toro Rosso racer Daniil Kvyat.

You already know the equation between Max Verstappen and Daniil Kvyat. Each time Kvyat has lost out, Verstappen has won that very race. But for 2018, there’s a chance that Kvyat will lose out on an entire season, in which case, will the same Kvyat-stat work to crown Max Verstappen the 2018 Formula 1 World Champion? Dreamy stuff!
Btw, we’re proud to announce our association with Johnnie Walker’s ‘never drink and drive’ campaign – #JoinThePact. Mika Hakkinen will be in India to promote this social cause and as a part of our association, we will have opportunities to generate exclusive content with the Flying Finn! Remember to tune in to our podcast over the next few days to hear Mika speak on some really interesting topics about his career, the 2017 F1 season and about his Finnish compatriots – Valtteri Bottas and Kimi Raikkonen.
Also, we’re supporting #JoinThePact and we will ‘walk our talk’ and sign-up ourselves when we meet Mika in person in India. Here’s your chance to sign-up too: https://www.liveinstyle.com/johnniewalkerthejourney
In this week’s episode, we praise Liberty Media’s efforts to grow the sport of Formula 1, while debating if Bernie Ecclestone did actually help Ferrari! Will the Formula 1 – Netflix deal led the sport to a new viewer market? And given how Formula 1, the teams and drivers have taken to social media, should we announce a Formula 1 Social Media Championship?
Lastly, since we started with Daniil Kvyat – the man who has been orphaned by the Red Bull Racing camp, we will end the podcast with him too (he definitely needs some love!). Can he do a Nico Hulkenberg, join Force India as a reserve driver for 2018 and make a comeback in a race seat in 2019? If he does so, Force India will have to make space on their pink cars for the new Russian sponsors.
Tune in!

Note: The Keepin’ It 101 from this week’s show sadly got corrupted. Sorry! 🙁
But Dre’s back for Lewis Hamilton’s coronation as Max Verstappen divebombed Vettel into oblivion en route to his 2nd win of 2017, dominating in Mexico. Despite a valiant 19th to 4th comeback, Hamilton would prevail as Champ. Is he the greatest British sportsman ever? SPECULATION! Also, more as Force India wrap up the “Best of the Rest” mantle, Lance Stroll cracks the Top 6, and Renault collapses left and right as only two of their six cars made the flag!
Also in the news, we mourn the loss of Kyvat. Again. Talk about a fracas in NASCAR involving Denny Hamlin and.. a fan? And we got the Nando/Lando show heading to the Rolex 24 of Daytona! And we take your questions in the mailbag! Enjoy!
