Shift+f1: A Formula 1 Podcast

With a race about as exciting as the pavement it was conducted on, at least we have colorful Massa dolls to haunt our dreams for a while.

Dave Lang torpedoes us for a second time as we warm up for another Black Sea brawl, but not before Red Bull cries van-wolf, Renault voyages home, and emails show us the errors of our ways.

While Danny's catching some rays, Drew and special guest Dave Lang have a warm-weather vacation of their own, complete with team orders, frites orders, and the usual Indian media hype.

Could it be that Verstappen pulls another Brazil, Alonso races an IndyCar, and we witness the return of real, actual racing? We don't know the answers any more than Bottas' engineer knows who's in his car.

With Danny out in some prefecture, Drew just compares everything to American football, baseball, and mobster movies. Or, wait, one of those is real.

Away we go! The first race of the season is in our rear view mirrors, and it leaves us with questions, answers, and that sweet In-N-Out special sauce. SHOW NOTES Australia highlights, onboards, and team radio Hot Vice science about the driver vs. car question
