About this episode

As the first race of the 2023 F1 season in Bahrain approaches, the team check in with McLaren's Australian rookie Oscar Piastri.


They cover a serious amount of ground including how his career went from racing remote control cars to joining the grid and Oscar's plans to become more tidy now that he's an actual Formula One driver. There's also time for Christian to tee you up with everything you need to know for race week one(!) and the team surprise a listener with the chance to interview their favourite driver.
