Peter talks at length with the driver who in 2024 underwent open-heart surgery before rising again to win. Only one other driver in motor racing history - Robert Kubica - has won both a World Championship Grand Prix and a major rally championship; the other is Heikki Kovalainen. Winner of the 2008 Hungarian GP for McLaren-Mercedes and a podium fini…

Join Peter Windsor as he talks at length with Peter Wright, the former BRM and Lotus engineer who, in a career that began in the late 1960s, not only pioneered ground effect with Colin Chapman but who also subsequently worked for the FIA on such safety developments as the survival cell, the halo, the HANS collar, circuit barriers and composite helm…

Peter caught up with @cameronCcTV on the Monday before Christmas to look back at 2024 and also ahead into 2025/26. Pour the Baileys, jink the ice...and enjoy. This episode is dedicated to my dear friend, Cyd Williams. He was a fast F3/F2/F5000 driver but he was also a Top Man, as Frank Williams used to say. With thanks to Jetcraft, the world's larg…

Kick back and relax as Peter talks through dozens of F1-related questions and comments on his latest livestream. There's lots of Lewis, Charles, Ferrari, McLaren, Lando, Oscar and George but there's some Georges Boillot, too - and, of course, some Jim Clark.

The Constructors' World Championship hung in the balance going into Abu Dhabi but McLaren-Mercedes nailed it down with a superlative performance from Lando Norris: he took the pole and dominated the race, leading home the two Ferraris - McLaren's only rivals for the title - by a comfortable margin. Oscar Piastri qualified a strong P2 in the other M…

A one-place grid penalty was brushed aside by Max Verstappen in Qatar: within about 25 seconds of the lights going out - for as long as it took to float into T1 on the inside of George Russell, RB20 perfectly-balanced - it was Max in front, with everyone else in his turbulence. Lando Norris fought him hard but was eventually (and needlessly, in our…

It was a momentous Saturday evening on The Strip for not only did Max Verstappen clinch his fourth FIA F1 World Drivers' Championship but also Mercedes scored a convincing one-two finish, maximising the sweet spot of their Pirelli tyres in the cold of the Nevada night. Ferrari finished third and fourth - a classy Carlos Sainz ahead of an irritated …

This was one of the great ones - one of the great races and certainly one of the great wins. From P17 on the grid Red Bull's Max Verstappen not only took the lead of the Brazilian GP with 26 wet laps still to run but also proceeded in setting fastest lap on 15 different occasions. Some will say that Max was massively helped today by a red flag "fre…

In the slipstream of the sensational Brazilian GP, Peter takes live questions and comments from viewers worldwide. Topics include: Max's dominance in the wet (and what this means for the remaining three races); Lando's issues; Lewis's problems; the five fastest qualifiers in F1 (today); a Brazilian racing in F1 in 2025; the qualities of Jarno Trull…

In conversation with Cameron, Peter looks back at the titanic Brazilian GP. There's lots of chat about the quality of Max's drive, about Lando's dismissal of the quality of Max's drive, about Lewis's weird-looking situation at Merc and about George Russell's perfect use of fifth gear just before the braking area into Turn 1, Lap 1. The usual scinti…

It was the race when McLaren's Lando Norris closed the gap a little to the championship leader - Red Bull's Max Verstappen. It was the race when Max, for his part, incurred two ten second penalties for his over-zealous driving. It was the race when Norris beautifully beat Ferrari's Charles Leclerc in the closing stages. And it was, withal, the race…

Scuderia Ferrari scored a brilliant one-two finish in Austin but it was the incident between Red Bull's Max Verstappen and McLaren-Mercdes' Lando Norris that stole the headlines. Culminating in Peter's take on the dramatic move that resulted in a penalty for Norris, Peter analyses the busy Austin action from Friday through to Sunday, also detailing…

Peter caught up with Hyundai's Thierry Neuville shortly after his return to Europe from the Rally of Chile. The current leader of the FIA World Rally Drivers' Championship with two rounds to go, Neuville finished a solid fourth in Chile and won the epic SS11 stage in heavy fog. He talks about that in this podcast - and the recent, astonishing slurs…

Peter begins this livestream with his thoughts on the new tie-up between Toyota and Haas-Ferrari. It's basically win-win from every angle - although the whole business of an F1 team by definition designing and building its own car takes a bit of knock when you consider that, in the immediate future, Haas F1 will be co-producing its cars with Ferrar…

Hundreds of questions and comments coloured our September 26 livestream - many of them relating to the ongoing championship, race and political battles between McLaren, Red Bull, Mercedes and Ferrari.

F1's most spectacular night race resulted in a classy win for McLaren's Lando Norris. After starting from the pole, Lando led perfectly into the first corner before comprehensively driving away from Red Bull's Max Verstappen, who finished well clear of Lando's team-mate, Oscar Piastri. Mercedes qualified on the second row but lost all chance of a p…

Peter Windsor details the events of the Baku GP - from Charles Leclerc's crash on Friday; to the very risky decision to bring both McLarens in to the pits with five minutes remaining in Q1 - a decision that arguably cost Lando Norris a podium; to the sustained brilliance of Norris's team-mate, Oscar Piastri, on race day. Add the late-rash clash bet…

Join Peter as he responds to more questions and comments from listeners.

Against all odds, Ferrari's Charles Leclerc scored a momentous victory in the Pirelli Italian GP. McLaren-Mercedes appeared to have the race on a plate after seizing the front row in qualifying but an intra-team battle and resultant crazy mid-race pace played havoc with the McLarens' hard-compound Pirelli left-front tyres. Forced to stop twice, the…

It was difficult to know where to start as we looked back at the Italian GP - but Charles Leclerc eventually got the nod. Then it was on to McLaren and to the Monday morning realisation that, since Hungary, Lando Norris has lost a minimum of 16 points due to McLaren management decisions (or lack of them). Responding to questions from @CameronCcTV, …

McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris didn't lead initially from the pole - but that was his only blemish at Zandvoort on Sunday. He retook the lead from Red Bull's Max Verstappen after 15 laps and thereafter extended the gap - the more so when the pair switched to Pirelli hards. At the end, Norris had so much in hand that he was able to dig deep and to s…

This was yet another Belgian GP to remember: the weather, to keep things complicated, was dry-wet-dry over the three days. Red Bull's Max Verstappen went into the weekend with a ten-place grid penalty due to an out-of-regulation engine change. McLaren-Mercedes were super-quick on Friday. Max V was fastest on Saturday, in difficult conditions, and w…

Although this race resulted in a resounding one-two finish for McLaren-Mercedes it will always be remembered for the acrimony surrounding McLaren's decision to give the win to Oscar Piastri. In so doing, the McLaren management stood by a pre-race decision to reward the driver who led off the line - itself an extraordinary plan - and threatened Land…

Re-live Sir Lewis Hamilton's titanic win at Silverstone via Peter Windsor's full analysis. Peter pin-pointed the breathtaking grace of Lewis's driving as early as Saturday, when Lewis's prolonged use of eighth gear into Becketts was in sharp contrast to that of his team-mate, George Russell, who was using seventh at exactly the same place. George l…

Lots to talk about after that frenetic Austrian GP - and Cameron has plenty of questions for Peter Windsor. Does Max Verstappen deserve all the criticism that has been heading his way?

Although McLaren-Mercedes' Lando Norris was impressively fast in the closing stages of the Spanish GP, it was again Max Verstappen who secured another win - his 61st - on the circuit on which, in 2016, he first opened his account.

Changeable weather conditions in both qualifying and the race combined to make this a Canadian GP to remember.

Peter predicted in the build-up to the Monaco GP that Ferrari would be super quick...and so it proved. Charles Leclerc not only won his third pole at Monaco but also went on to win at home for the first time, replicating the achievement of Louis Chiron in 1931. It was, as such, a momentously significant race for F1 - but it was also an unusual one:…

It was breathtakingly close at Imola in both qualifying and in the race. Max Verstappen won from the pole for Red Bull-Honda but the McLaren-Mercedes drivers pushed him all the way, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri proving that the updated 2024 McLaren can also shine on a circuit very different from Miami. Ferrari were the third-best team, still lack…
