Join Paul and me as we review the Formula 1 Hungarian Grand Prix including McLaren’s win and Blue Flag failure. We cover every team and driver and offer our awards of the race.
Norris ended Mercedes’ grip on Saturdays and won the Hungarian Grand Prix, but the real story was the blue flag system that failed on lap nine and quietly decided the outcome. Episode 1,000 breaks down how McLaren’s development gamble paid off, why Ferrari wasted its best chance of the season, and what the FIA owes an explanation for before Zandvoort.
