Better Late Than Never - The Miami GP Review
The 0 had to go, finally Lando Norris is a race winner. McLaren are on a charge, and although the result for 81 didn't reflect the weekend make no mistake, we have a challenger ready and waiting. Will it be Oscars win next time round? A RB resurgence saw 4th for Dan in the sprint and 7th for Yuki in the race, finally getting to grips with the chassis and a tidy livery to boot. And Alpine have got it together, criticism round 1 and rightly so, but points on the board now has all eyes on Williams once again. All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

The Long Road Back - The Chinese GP Review
Round 5 and a return to China after years in the wilderness. The rain came down, the old guard showed that experience counts and once again, Max came, saw and conquered. A savage Ricciardo was seething after a Stroll slip, as animated as ever, and not his usual all smiles self. We have to ask the question of Aston once again, is this the pairing to take them all the way? McLaren pulled a rabbit after the predicted challenging weekend. Is a win on the cards by seasons end? And Alpine make a move. Disaster in Rd 1 but you have to say the steps are being made. Can the break into the top 10 and be Mercedes challenger?

Suzuka Drifting - The Japanese GP Review
We went drifting in Suzuka as the Honda's were on show again in the RB20. A 1-2 and 636 days since anyone but Max led the championship. Yuki mania is here, in his fourth year, it is all staring to come together. Leading up the RB challenge and points at home. Is he a potential RedBull suitor? Disaster strikes Williams again. Another chassis in the wall and still 2 rounds away from a spare. If alarm bells weren't ringing already...they are now. And a midfield Merc? The fall from grace continues. Is the silver arrows seat attractive to anyone at the moment? If so who, and why? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

Code Red - The Australian GP Review
The run is officially over. A brake issue, a roar from the crowd and it was game on in the land down under. Red season is officially here. The inhouse ops are under control, the pit wall is calm, and the race results are coming. But Sainz is paying the price and is without a drive still... if you were running Ferrari, are you keeping or sacking Sainz today? Mercedes fall from grace continues. A double DNF and more pain to come. Is the silver arrow seat as converted as it once was? And it's another points finish for Haas. The top of the midfield? For us...yes.

Hold My Bearman - The Saudi Arabian GP Review
Two from two as the Verstappen victory lap rolls on, when will it end? What has happened at RB? Were we duped by the excitement of a potential RB19 in a new coat of paint? There needs to be answers and soon or this could be Ricciardo’s swan song. Has Haas played an ace in the dumping of Steiner? A race hardened performance, a value point and two drivers in unison. Are the new leaders of the midfield pack? And Ollie Bearman take a bow. 7th place after mere hours on track. How can you not love a feel-good story, this is Driver to Survive ep 2 without a doubt?

The Search for a Challenger - The Bahrain GP Review
Round one has been run and won, and it's Max who extends his winning ways in Bahrain. It's a tail of two grids, RB, Alpine, Haas, Williams and Sauber look to occupy the back half. But can they break into the top 10 and sneak any points in season 2024? Is Lewis lost? A lonely 7th place for the 7 time champion had many scratching their heads a George took old of the W15. Is the grass redder on the other side already? And what of Alpine. A new concept and a new way of racing. It's going to be a long haul this year, but is there light at the end of the tunnel or simply more dark times ahead for the Enstone family? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

Lights Out - The 2024 F1 Season Preview
Just 24hrs to go as the race for the 2024 title is on. A hectic four days of testing has many pundits scratching their heads as to what the pecking order will be. Are McLaren sandbagging? Will the Aston rise or fall? Are Mercedes on the charge? By the end of FP3 we will start to get a glimpse. A new concept at Alpine has their drivers on the back foot. With a fully new concept we wait with bated breath to see where and what potential the all French outfit have. And the Y250 wing lip has raised eyebrows up and down the paddock. A new innovation from Mercedes, but is it about greater performance or disruption of the chasing pack? All the plus much much more on this week's episode of BTRL.

Done and Dusted - The Vegas and Abu Dhabi GP Reviews
2023 comes to an end and what a season it was. A dominate Max and a chassis for the history books. Records were smashed this year, but without the bump in the road that was Singapore how many may Max have won on the bounce? Yuki saved his best til last, agonisingly close to the needed 7th place finish, is this the turning point in the soon to be named, Racing Bulls? And Abu Dhabi fails to deliver once again, does it deserve its final race place on the calendar, if at all?

0.053 - The Brazilian GP Review
0.053 one of the finest margins to one of the finest weekends for a long time. Did you know, Max could have stopped racing in July and still lead the title. Is the pack closing? Hard to believe that could be the case but it seems Max has some speed in hand, who will contend in 2024? Aston abandoned all hope and came home with an epic 3rd. Are be judging them too hardly from where they have come, or has the season been a case of what could have been? And the Merc is crying foul, a tyre shred for the ages, an unhappy George and a Wolf who says the chassis is one to forget. What lies ahead for the men in black?

One Man Band - The Qatar GP Review
Triple treat for the ages. It was Maximum Verstappen at Qatar, with a third crown. The sky is the limit for Max, how many title will his career end in? That Aussie boy has speed. Piastri takes a maiden F1 win, with a sprint pole and victory, but you have to feel for Lando watching both Australians take a win. When will it be Landos turn? Stroll threw the toys out of the cot and serious questions have to be asked. The FIA are investigating his incidents. Is that the straw that broke the camels back? And Andretti are set to arrive. The green light has all but been given to join the grid as we expand the field, just don't mention it to James Vowes.

Fighting Spirit - The Japanese GP Review
Normal service has resumed with a Verstappen win and a 6th Constructor title sewn up. A sprint to decide the title and that's season 2023 in the books. Of 2nd is all that is needed, a DNF is not. A shocker from Perez puts him back under the pump. With 3 replacements waiting in the wings, the time to deliver is now. 17th and 20th at the season opener, and a 2nd and 3rd in Japan. Has there been a better season revival than McLaren's? Piastri with a 3yr extension and a first podium to boot. All signs point to the top of the grid. Mercedes fought hard again, but has the honeymoon ended with George and Lewis? The new kid on the block getting punchy but the old hand showed his class once again. What will seasons end bring for Mercedes? All the plus Race Ranking, Race Review, F1.5, Driver Votes, Dud of the Day, Fantasy, News, Gossip and Fan Frenzy mini pod on this week's episode of BTRL.

SAINZ-SATIONAL - The Singapore GP Review
The Rebull streak comes to an end as the Spanish meistro completes a smooth operation in Singapore. Ferrari are back....or so it seems. An end of season resurgence has the Tifosi licking their lips, the base like for 2024 looks promising, so can we expect a strong running in the land of the rising sun. If they handed out prizes for negative gearing Aston would take the cake. The one time challengers season has unravelled before our eyes, battered, bruised and beaten in the development race. A 9th place for Lawson as he turns up the heat on the Honey Badger, rumour has it Dan and Yuki are locked in for 2024, so if not the sister bull, then who will take a punt on the pint sized Kiwi?

10/10 - The Italian GP Review
10/10 an achievement for the ages, but just don't ask Toto, some things are made for Wikipedia, but not this. Ferrari threw the kitchen sink at their home race, Sainz on pole and a battle royal to the end. A third and fourth by Sunday but this felt more like a win for the ever wanting Tifosi. Mclaren lost pace, a questionable strategy call, and a bit of bad luck for Oscar saw a less than ideal result. Will they bounce back in Singapore. And what to do at Alpha Tauri. Lawson has stepped up, Dan is still injured and Yuki didn't get started. With more drivers than points, this team need to get the mix right or it will be more long years toiling away at the bottom.

The Lion King - The Dutch GP Review
Records, wrists and rookies were the flavours of Zandvoort, circuit by the sea. 9 on the bounce for Max as he levelled Vettle for the most consecutive wins, he is set for a record breaking 10 in Monza but when will the streak end? Aston were back, a rethink and re-tink of aero and it was Alonso doing all the heavy lifting. A win felt closer this week. Is 33 destiny or just a dream? And what of Alex Albon, another masterful drive, he is building the Williams team around himself, but if the top runners came knocking would he leave or stay?

Perez has a 40pt lead over Alonso and Hamilton. Is it enough? Will he be caught? Piastri is a champion in waiting make no mistake, a sprint podium, an almost pole yet a forgettable Sunday. How long until we see Aussie Oscar with a GP podium? And it was Tsunoda who took the chocolates this week at Alpha Tauri. Ricciardo watch is in full swing. Who comes out on top?
