The Gloves Come Off ft. Fred Smith
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Fred Smith, Motorsports Editor for Road & Track. Fred & JB recap the Singapore GP, where the opening lap stole the headlines as McLaren teammates Lando Norris & Oscar Piastri made contact. F1 media & fans are split in assigning blame as the Papaya Rules have blurred in recent races. George Russell gets another win, so how does he still not have a contract for the 2026 season? JB turns to preview next weekend’s United States Grand Prix in Austin, where the track layout lends itself to more drama in the McLaren garage. Turn one carries a nine story incline, has led to several incidents in the past, and the hot weather forecast may also play a significant role in our race outcome.

Bedlam In Baku ft. Tommy Kendall
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Tommy Kendall, Motorsports Hall of Fame Driver. Tommy & JB recap a chaotic weekend in Baku, where we saw SIX red flags in qualifying followed up by Oscar Piastri crashing out on lap one of Sunday’s grand prix. Max Verstappen went on to win his second straight race, and the pressure is ratcheting up on McLaren…who appear to have lost the advantage they carried during the first half of the calendar. JB highlights some fantastic results from Baku, as Carlos Sainz gets his first podium with Williams + Kimi Antonelli, Liam Lawson & Yuki Tsunoda holding off the big hitters to finish P4, P5 & P6 respectively. We then turn our attention to Singapore, where a high-speed night race is sure to complicate the drivers’ championship standings!
