Here's a question for you amongst the choas of F1 right now, and something we discuss on this week's pod (live tomorrow)...
Are Mercedes finally in with a shot at the Constructor's Championship again this year?
🤔
I can’t see Horner getting out of this. The sooner he and RB realise that, the better.
A crisis developing at Red Bull, where its dream start on-track is overshadowed by a nightmare off it. A public undermining of Christian Horner from none other than Max Verstappen's father Jos at the end of an extraordinary week. Astonishing situation: the-race.com/formula-1/red-b…

Sometimes nonsense needs to be called out. This is an unbelievably bad take to the point where you have to wonder if it is parody 🙃
Nah I don’t give them that. They made lots of BS excuses last year that the chassis limited their ability to make progress. It was all pinned on this car. The fact it’s shown zero progress in 1 race, it spells the end for them. I was right all along

"He inspires people to be bold and daring"
The words of @NaturalParadigm on this week's podcast in reference to James Allison's role in the design of the W15.
If this innovative front suspension trick doesn't prove that, I don't know what does! Great foresight Bryson 😀
#F1Testing | Sam Collins on Mercedes’ front suspension change: “That angle between these two sections is absolutely huge, and the reason we’ve got so excited about this is this: you cannot simply change a part of a modern formula 1 car just like that. You can’t just modify the front suspension and bolt a different bit on.”
“You actually have to change the chassis of the car, and it’s a really big job! Mercedes clearly have designed this new car with this in mind. I think James Allison played [this engineering job] down a little bit.”

Clearly Mercedes' front wing has caught a lot of attention, but their sidepod shape is innovative too.
@mattpt55 and @NaturalParadigm discuss what @SomersF1 calls the 'p inlet'

I find the discourse around innovative designs being 'banned' after car launches each year baffling. As if teams would waste time and £ on developing expensive ideas without checking they're legal first 🤦♀️
Toto Wolff reveals Mercedes designed their controversial front wing whilst in constant dialogue with the FIA, in order to maintain its legality:
“What was put on the car is always following an exchange with the FIA all the way through the process.”
“There’s no such thing that you’ll have a clever idea and then you bolt it on for the test.
“So there is a long process of dialogue that happens over the winter.”

Buzzing for pre-season testing tomorrow... plus our first episode of the season will be in your podcast app at 6am. ⏰
So Mercedes fans... what should we be looking out for? Here's a few tips from @NaturalParadigm.
It's recording day 🥂
After a couple of months of rest, it's exciting to be back producing the podcast today. We'll be sharing our initial thoughts on the W15 w/ the help of @NaturalParadigm and @mattpt55.
As ever, send us any questions for the panel & we'll do our best.
Other than the excitement around Kimi… why is nobody talking about Oscar Piastri as a possible replacement for Lewis in 2025?
Very strong option in my opinion!
