About this episode
Anthony Davidson and the host of 'The Fast and the Curious' and 'F1 explains' podcast Christian Hewgill joins Matt Baker on this week's episode of the Sky Sports Formula 1 podcast to preview a remarkable weekend at the Dutch GP which saw Lando Norris produce a stunning display of pace to beat Max Verstappen by 22 seconds.

They also question if Lando Norris' poor race starts could cost him the championship fight, after on a few occasions the McLaren driver has lost the lead on the opening lap, and take a closer look at why Red Bull is struggling this season.

Finally, they look ahead to Monza, which will see Kimi Antonelli make his Formula 1 practice debut for Mercedes and discuss how important that performance will be for the Italian teenager.
