• Is Oscar the next Max? Kimi’s ‘seismic moment’ + why were Williams faster than Ferrari? – 2025 Miami GP Review with Alex Albon

  Tom Clarkson is joined in the paddock by F1TV lead presenter, Laura Winter, and French F1 journalist for L’Equipe, Fred Ferret, to dissect an action-packed Miami Grand Prix. Oscar Piastri's fourth win of the season means he now leads McLaren team mate Lando Norris by 16 points at the top of the World Championship. So, after a mega battle with the reigning champion for P1, is Oscar the new Max Verstappen? Even though Lando lost more ground in the title race, was this weekend a step in the right direction for the Brit? And after his sensational pole lap and defensive masterclass against the McLarens, will being a father actually make Verstappen an even better driver?  Kimi Antonelli became the youngest polesitter in any format in F1 history with his Sprint pole and outqualified George Russell for the first time this season. How have Mercedes 'nurtured' the 18-year-old to settle into Formula 1 so smoothly? Elsewhere, Williams secured a double points finish for the second race in a row. Why were they quicker than Ferrari in Miami? Alex Albon joins the pod to share great insight into how he bounced back from his penalty in F1 Sprint and why there was some confusion over team orders between himself and Carlos Sainz. Plus, speaking of team orders, what did Laura and Fred think of how Ferrari managed their strategy with Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton?
