I've been following F1 for many years and although sometimes I cringe when you come up with some goofy ideas the content is second to none and you are my favourite podcast and I always look forward to new content.

    No offence to Brad, but he qualified 19th in Silverstone. Saturday there are less laps and it was raining, meaning overtaking was hard. To blame Clem for ruining basically his weekend is a little over reacting and a weak mind set when he should be optimising his time in F2 and looking forward.

    Great episode. Loved hearing Brad’s story and how hard it is for drivers who do not come from money to have a chance. One of the reasons why I have a lot of respect of Esteban Ocon who also came from no money at all and who family struggled and sacrificed so much to keep him racing.
    Can you imagine. $8K per race for shifter carting?? And that is at a discount. And $500,000 a season for Formula Regional? Which is below F3.
    Wishing the best for Brad.

    Tbf, Sebastian Loeb (the most successful WRC driver of all time, and the most successful racing driver of all time) was also a gymnast before he got into rallying. Starting early gives a driver the best chance, but many of the drivers who start early also don’t get into a championship if they don’t get the results or lose the passion or run out of money.

    Ive always dreamed of being an f1 driver but dad said it was impossible…. Became a pro amateur for now in cycling. so many dreams are being suppressed just because of the prices we couldnt afford. Im genuinely proud for the f1, f2 or any other class of racers even for the karts who have made it far beyond impossible especially for the ones that didnt have much growing up and most importantly their parents who supported them hard. They deserve the love and respect they receive everyday.
