Scott Mitchell-Malm and Glenn Freeman join Edd Straw to round-up the final track action of the 2023 season: The end-of-season test in Abu Dhabi. They discuss whether any of the young drivers who got a run-out are likely to make it to F1 and what's potentially blocking them from doing so. They also debate whether Pato O'Ward's ongoing McLaren outings might help him earn him a race seat in the future, and whether Sergio Perez's full day of running might help him hit the ground running in 2024.

Ben Anderson and Glenn Freeman join Edd Straw to look ahead to the final race of the 2023 F1 season in Abu Dhabi. There's a particular focus on the scores still left to be settled this year, including whether Mercedes or Ferrari will win the battle for P2 in the constructors' championship, and whether McLaren or Aston Martin will triumph in the close battle for fourth. The guys also look ahead to which rookies will be getting a run-out in the post-season test, and debate the controversial matter of whether Monaco still deserves a slot on the F1 calendar - especially with Las Vegas now offering a prestige glamour event that also provides great racing...

Join Edd Straw and Scott Mitchell-Malm on the ground in Las Vegas, as they look ahead to arguably the most hyped race in F1 history. They share their initial views on the venue and circuit, discuss what the drivers have been saying about it (including Max Verstappen's negative comments), and reveal what it was like to attend the glitzy opening ceremony in person. We'll also hear from former McLaren driver John Watson on what it was like to race (and finish on the podium) in F1's first attempt to make a success of a Las Vegas Grand Prix in 1981 and 1982, plus we'll get the latest on Andretti's bid to get an American team onto the Formula 1 grid.

Track limits - it's become a phrase we hear nearly every Grand Prix weekend, with drivers, journalists, commentators and fans all having their say on drivers straying beyond the limits of the circuit and how to punish them if they do. We've seen lap times deleted in qualifying, drivers being penalised for gaining an advantage in races and, more recently, a post-race protest in the US from Haas, aimed at recovering points from drivers who repeatedly strayed beyond track limits but weren't punished. Clearly, this is state of affairs that needs to be fixed, so as the end of the season approaches, Edd Straw is joined by Scott Mitchell-Malm, Glenn Freeman and Ben Anderson for a debate on tracks limits, with each of them presenting their vision for how to solve F1's most contentious issue for good.

Ben Anderson and Glenn Freeman join Edd Straw to discuss the FIA's decision to revisit Lewis Hamilton's track crossing punishment in Qatar, and ask whether it's unfair to single Hamilton out on the basis of being a role model. They then compare that to the FIA's response to another controversial moment from the last race: Lance Stroll's shove of an Aston Martin team member, before exploring the Canadian's current lack of form. Following that, our hosting trio debate whether this weekend's US Grand Prix will be kinder to the fortunes of two other strugglers: Red Bull's Sergio Perez and Williams' Logan Sargeant. Plus, they look ahead to Daniel Ricciardo's return from injury and ask which team is likely to provide the greatest threat to Red Bull in Austin.

Josh Suttill, Jonny Reynolds and very special guest Dr Chris Tyler join Edd Straw for an in-depth discussion about whether F1 needs to do more to protect drivers, in the wake of the extremely challenging conditions they faced in Qatar - and the extreme reactions those conditions provoked.

In a wider discussion about the welfare of F1 drivers in the current era, he explains why what happened in Qatar was so alarming and discusses what can be done to prevent the drivers from suffering to such an extent again - without impacting the show.
