Quick recap of the first race of the season and we are back for an exciting Chinese GP. In April 2003, a marshland in Shanghai was earmarked to be the home of an F1 circuit. Eighteen months and around $450 million later, the Shanghai International Circuit was ready for action.
Join me and Rahul as we prep you for the second race and explain some jargon around engines and gearbox penalties.

Pre-season testing got done. The teams had a chance to see if all their drawings and plans translate into actual performance.
We are a few days away from the first race of the season. We are about to go racing in Albert Park, Australia. Aditi and I talk about the history of the track, best moments and what to look out for. Plus a quick breakdown of key phrases youâll hear from the commentators during the race.

The 2024 F1 season was packed with drama, records, fights and scandals and surprises. Max Verstappen clinched his fourth title, but Lando Norris pushed him hard. McLaren made history, winning their first Constructors' Championship in 26 years. Anjali and I discuss how the stage was set for 2025 and all the chaos we hope to see!

Long time F1 fan, Kevin and I deep dive into the forces that keep F1 runningâwhether it's the FIA making the rules, Liberty Media Group shaping the spectacle, or the GPDA ensuring driversâ voices are heard. Weâve looked at who holds the power, who enforces the rules, and how safety innovations have saved lives.

My sister Bharati has been an unwilling participant in my F1 obsession all of last yearâso naturally, sheâs my first guest! We break down the basics: Why is it called Formula 1? What makes a championship? Who are all these people? And what makes these cars so special? By the end, maybe (just maybe) Iâve convinced a new fan!
