November 4, 2017 35: Max Verstappen, 2018 F1 Champion? (Ref: The Kvyat Stat)

35: Max Verstappen, 2018 F1 Champion? (Ref: The Kvyat Stat)

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.

34: Donald Trumps Tweets On Formula 1 #FakeNews

Will Donald Trump attend the 2017 United States Grand Prix? If he does, would he tweet about Formula 1? After all, that’s one thing he’s really good at. In this week’s episode, Mithila and Kunal put their creative hats on and tell you what Trump could tweet on Formula 1, if he did.

Also, could Fernando Alonso have won the 2017 Drivers’ Championship with Ferrari? With Usain Bolt, Michael Buffer and a variety of musical acts, the United States Grand Prix could be setting a new benchmark for Formula 1. Tune in!

October 4, 2017 Why Microphones To Enhance F1 Engine Sounds Is A Good Idea

Why Microphones To Enhance F1 Engine Sounds Is A Good Idea

Is Formula 1 going too artificial by thinking of introducing ceramic microphones to enhance the sounds of the F1 engines? Or is it an acceptable solution from a sports broadcast point of view? Unlike the DRS, this is one solution that we don’t mind supporting the sport for.

In this week’s episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, we wonder if the race organisers of the Malaysian Grand Prix blurted out the absolute truth about the sport, while also claiming that they wouldn’t play host to Formula 1 even if it was offered for free! Ouch!

We discuss Paul Hembrey’s idea of introducing ‘mini cups’ along side the World Championship to make the longer seasons more interesting and Graham Keilloh’s novel idea of crowning the driver with the maximum race laps led as that season’s Drivers’ Champion.

And then of course, we have our usual Mclaren-Honda section, along with a much-needed one for Daniel Ricciardo. As we look forward to Suzuka, let’s hope Ferrari’s engines don’t hit Honda mode yet again.

September 26, 2017 Did The Success Of The Singapore GP Cause Malaysia’s F1 Exit?

Did The Success Of The Singapore GP Cause Malaysia’s F1 Exit?

After 19 illustrious years, Formula 1 will bid adieu to the Malaysian Grand Prix (and the Sepang International Circuit) this Sunday. While the gesture to release a full-race edit of the 2001 Malaysian Grand Prix is a good one, did the success of the Singapore Grand Prix cost Formula 1 (and us!) the Malaysian Grand Prix? Or have the Motorsport fans in Malaysia chosen MotoGP over Formula 1?

In this week’s episode, we talk about the Red Bull Racing-Aston Martin partnership – will James Bond make an appearance in Formula 1? Will Red Bull or Formula 1 use 007 to promote the sport? We were the first ones to suggest this! (Do check our previous episode ‘James Bond in Formula 1?’ below)

Will the Strolls have a say in selecting the lead Williams driver in 2018? Are Mclaren already jumping the gun with Renault? And finally, who will jump on the top step of the podium in Sepang while the FIA have tightened the rule for jump-starters! All this and more in the Inside Line F1 Podcast.

September 18, 2017 Do We Have To Blame Someone For The Singapore Car-nage?

Do We Have To Blame Someone For The Singapore Car-nage?

Formula 1 tested a live 360 degree telecast of the 2017 Singapore Grand Prix. While this wasn’t available for fans to consume, if it was, the footage would’ve only offered more angles to fans to dissect the Verstappen-Raikkonen-Vettel clash and pinpoint the blame on a driver. But do we really have to blame this on someone? Let’s take the FIA’s lead, classify it as a ‘racing incident’ and move on. Or like Mithila said, she’d love to use the 360 degree footage to see Fernando Alonso’s air-borne 360 degree spin!

In this week’s episode, we tell you why a Lewis Hamilton win in Singapore is actually an unusual result, why Carlos Sainz Jr. might need to drop the ‘Jr.’ from his name next season and wonder if Nico Rosberg has any clout whatsoever to help Robert Kubica make a heroic comeback to the sport. Also, we can’t believe that Daniel Ricciardo actually admitted to farting at an official press conference!

Has Mercedes forgotten their other junior driver, Pascal Wehrlein? And will both of Ferrari’s junior drivers (Giovinazzi and Le Clerc) make it to Formula 1 next season? And finally, should Jolyon Palmer take the money and make way for Sainz to make his Renault debut in Malaysia?

September 1, 2017 In Formula 1, Customer Is Never King

In Formula 1, Customer Is Never King

So Mclaren is working overtime to secure an engine that Max Verstappen doesn’t want. Well, for those who understand the politics of Formula 1, you’ll agree that in this sport and business, the customer is NEVER king! Okay, at least in this era.

In this week’s episode, Mithila and Kunal look forward to the Temple of Speed (isn’t this a perfect name to attract the millennials?), a Vettel-Hamilton partnership at Ferrari that never will be, how Fernando Alonso should consider See More Force India and how Force India could afford him and finally, how Vettel and Hamilton both now have Finnish wingmen in their championship battle.

Also, before you tune-in, any guesses on which drivers will be gifted a tow by their team-mate?

August 18, 2017 Red Bull Supports Vettel, Where Is Mclaren’s Support For Hamilton?

Red Bull Supports Vettel, Where Is Mclaren’s Support For Hamilton?

We’re back! After a couple of week’s break, we’re back with this week’s episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast. Red Bull Racing has publicly supported Sebastian Vettel in his title battle against Lewis Hamilton. Will Mclaren come out in support of Lewis Hamilton too?

Reports suggest that Vettel is keen on a 1-year contract extension with Ferrari. Is this a learning from Fernando Alonso’s Ferrari career, or to leave a door open for a Schumacheresque switch to Mercedes? Btw, our friend and listener, Lucien, shares an interesting numeric perspective on Ferrari’s use of team orders in Hungary.

Will Formula 1 and Formula E merge someday? Can Formula 1 become Formula E by just switching to electric motors? And with the ‘halo’, is Formula 1 moving towards ‘closed cockpits’? We discuss these points while applauding manufacturers’ interests in the all-electric series which is garnering fan interest slowly and steadily.

And apart from our humourous and funny ‘Mclaren-Honda-Alonso’ section, we also have an ‘I Know What You Did This Summer’ section. Tune in!

July 26, 2017 James Bond In Formula 1?

James Bond In Formula 1?

Basis recent reports, Aston Martin are considering Formula 1 – that is if the costs of operations are affordable, of course. If Aston Martin do join, we’re betting on a James Bond sequence in Formula 1 as one of their cross promotions. Brilliant advertisement for Formula 1 too.

Wishful thinking aside, we’re excited about the Hungarian Grand Prix, a race fans usually aren’t the most excited about it. But this year’s interest lies on the Monday after the official Grand Prix event, for Robert Kubica’s super-human comeback attempt to Formula 1.

Lastly, the FIA confirmed the ‘halo’ for 2018. Since this ruling doesn’t seem like it’ll be rolled back, we discuss how teams could compete next season for the best implementation of this life-saving but visually-disturbing device. Tune in!

July 20, 2017 Ferrari & Mercedes Control Fernando Alonso’s Fate In F1?

Ferrari & Mercedes Control Fernando Alonso’s Fate In F1?

Ferrari & Mercedes don’t seem interested in hiring Fernando Alonso’s services for 2018. But by not willing to offer Mclaren their power units for 2018, they’re not helping Mclaren (and hence, Formula 1) retain Alonso either. Are Ferrari and Mercedes controlling Fernando Alonso’s fate in Formula 1? In fact, we think they are certainly controlling the ‘competitive quotient’ of Formula 1 too.

From power struggles, Formula 1 is now witnessing power unit struggles! In this week’s episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Mithila and Kunal discuss Formula 1’s partnership with Snapchat, the business of the F1 Live Events (we can’t wait for the next one!), Formula 1 drivers releasing their personalised emoji packs (we can’t wait for Raikkonen’s) and how another ‘Sebastian’ might join the grid in 2018.

July 12, 2017 Ricciardo: The Only Happy Red Bull Driver

Ricciardo: The Only Happy Red Bull Driver

What does Max Verstappen need to do to finish a race this season? His dismal luck reminds us of Michael Schumacher’s 2000 title campaign! Either way, it is time Verstappen goes woo-ing his Lady Luck, again. Maybe, Red Bull Racing needs to rename the RB13 to get rid of the bad luck!

In the Red Bull Racing ecosystem, Daniel Ricciardo seems to be the only driver ‘happy’. Carlos Sainz Jr. had a public spat regarding his future; given Red Bull Racing’s attitude, he should be glad it wasn’t a public slap. As for Daniil Kvyat, he was let off leniently by the FIA for his ‘torpedo’ move, but will Red Bull Racing let him off as lightly?

In this week’s episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Mithila and Kunal wonder how and why are people expecting Valtteri Bottas to be the third title contender for the season. Has he done enough to warrant a contract extension with Mercedes? Similarly, Fernando Alonso is in high demand. Maybe he should approach a multi-team contract option for 2018. You’ll have to tune-in to understand this crazy idea of ours better.

Finally, Mclaren have suggested that Formula 1 should purchase Silverstone. Given Mclaren’s recent Formula 1 decisions, we’d advise Carey & Team to just ignore that suggestion. Tune in!
