About this episode

As pre-season testing gets underway The Fast And The Curious team head to Silverstone to introduce you to the world of Formula 1 and come face-to-face with drivers, engineers and what Christian calls "the beautiful beasts" on the track (cars to the rest of us).


In this opening episode Betty, Greg and Christian tee up the 2023 season for newcomers and die-hard fans alike as Williams and Alpine roll their cars off the garage floor and sign up their first co-host for the season; American rookie driver Logan Sargeant. Along the way they come across British racing legend Jenson Button, a test-drive fresh Esteban Ocon and uncover the first prize for their ultimate F1 giveaway.


Fan input is of course welcome. Please slide in our DMs with any questions for drivers and the team and suggestions of where Logan can get a decent British burger. We're @fastandcuriouspod. You can also find the show on TikTok (@thefastandthecuriouspod).


The Fast And The Curious theme was written, performed and produced by Connor Jones at Humm Studios The Fast And The Curious is produced by 3040 Productions and is part of the Acast Creator Network.
