About this episode

For the latest F1 Tech Show, Edd and Gary hit the road, joining Haas for an intimate look at the team's recent TPC (Testing of Previous Cars) outing at Silverstone. They discuss the value of a TPC programme and give a sense of what happens on the day, as well as sharing general observations about how a team operates at a test of this nature.


While on-site, Gary gives his verdict on F1's power unit rule tweaks, which will come into effect in Miami, and he also answers questions from listeners about damaged parts, turbo size and power unit penalties.
