Edd Straw is joined in Imola by Mark Hughes and Jon Noble to discuss all the important talking points from the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.Chief among them is how Red Bull managed to emerge with the quickest car, and whether Max Verstappen would still have won, even if McLaren's Oscar Piastri had beaten him into Turn 1.There's also chat about how Ferrari saved face at its home race, after a dismal qualifying, plus there are plenty of questions to answer from The Race Members' Club on everything from Yuki Tsunoda's response to his big quali crash to why we had one safety car and one VSC for what looked like very similar retirements.

And Colossally That's History: The amazing stories behind the very first world championship F1 race
On this week’s episode of And Colossally That’s History! Matt and Richard wind the clock back to 1950, as they reappraise the very first race of the F1 world championship era, which took place at Silverstone on May 13. Along the way, they look at the origins of the term ‘Formula 1’, dig into the debate over where the first race run to Formula 1 regulations actually took place, and explain why Alfa Romeo emerged as the dominant force in the post-war years, leading up to Silverstone. They also discuss the strange origins of Silverstone as a race venue, before chatting about the wonderful ensemble of drivers that assembled at the former bomber base for the first race - a remarkable list that included a Thai royal, a Colditz Castle POW, and a gigolo, but NO representative from Ferrari.And finally, they look back on the race itself, which was won by man who, to quote the great Juan Manuel Fangio, “Drove like a madman...” Matt and Richard will be bringing members an exclusive Q&A episode at the end of Season 3, where they'll answer questions on each of the topics covered.

Imola's farewell and Colapinto's return
We looked ahead to what is set to be Imola’s final Formula 1 race - for now at least - in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast. Jon Noble and Josh Suttill join Edd Straw in Italy to discuss whether the classic track deserved to stay on the calendar or F1 has outgrown it. We also look ahead to Franco Colapinto’s return and whether he can make a success of what’s initially only a five-race run in the Alpine, as well as addressing the situation surrounding resigned team principal Oli Oakes. Expectations for upgrades and what we’ve learned about how the FIA interprets the rules surrounding tyre cooling are also discussed, along with the potential effect of the debut of the C6 tyre compound.

And Colossally That's History: Eddie Jordan - F1’s biggest overachiever?
On this week’s episode of And Colossally That’s History! Matt Bishop and Richard Williams look back on the life and career of Eddie Jordan, who very sadly died of cancer, on March 20th this year, at the age of 76. For the generation who grew up on F1 in the 1990s and 2000s, Eddie was the most charismatic team boss in the game, and it was hard not to cheer for his underdog squad when they landed several big punches on the chins of their much better funded rivals, as well as the occasional knockout blow. But, having built an F1 team from scratch on a minimal budget and then not only kept it afloat, but turned it into a grand prix-winning (and at one point championship-challenging) outfit, should EJ be considered F1’s biggest overachiever? As Matt and Richard attempt to answer that question, they look back over Eddie’s time in F1, with Matt - who was good friends with Eddie - sharing amusing and poignant anecdotes and stories that perfectly illustrate a fun-loving, larger than life character with a steely inner core.Get 75% off your first month when you join The Race Members' Club on Patreon today - we even have an F1-only tier!
