  • Unacceptable into length

    Back At Base S3 E1. Nearly 5:35 minutes in and the podcast is still in intro! This back at base stuff is shallow & condescending. If this is for the new wave of fans, they deserve better.

  • favourite F1 pod

    My favourite F1 pod for quite a while now. I love the different characters and that they are given the chance to present their different views and opinions on the pod. And I think it‘s great that there is room for some fun and jokes but still keeping it professional.

  • Ok but glaringly obvious British Bias

    This podcast is informative at best, but very negative towards any other non-British drivers, some hosts are exceedingly negative as well.

    Need to stick with the better presenters and drop those that are negative against some drivers like Alice Powell
