FORMULA 1
About this episode
Esteban Gutierrez, former Haas and Sauber F1 driver turned Mercedes ambassador, joins Tom Clarkson in the Monte Carlo paddock to discuss the big talking points ahead of this weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix.

Will Oscar Piastri get the better of his McLaren teammate Lando Norris again? Could Max Verstappen make the difference for Red Bull? Will Mercedes be back on the podium after their disappointing performance at Imola? Or can Charles Leclerc repeat his home race heroics and win for Ferrari?

Esteban explains exactly what you need from the driver and car setup to execute a fast lap through the streets of Monte Carlo and why this track requires a completely different approach to any other.

And Tom and Esteban share their excitement for F1: The Movie, after the drivers enjoyed an exclusive premiere of the film in Monaco.

F1: THE MOVIE starring Brad Pitt
