About this episode
Damon Hill and Harry Benjamin join Matt Baker on this week's episode of the Sky Sports Formula One podcast as they look back at an epic Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

They discuss Oscar Piastri’s brilliance after he fended off Charles Leclerc in a dramatic battle for the win and why his ‘killer instinct’ could cause a headache for McLaren. 

Damon explains the difference of being the hunter and the hunted when fighting for the world championship after Lando Norris took more points out of Max Verstappen’s lead to increase his title hopes. 

They also discuss the importance of Andrea Stella for McLaren after they replaced Red Bull as leaders of the constructors championship for the first time in more than a decade.
