Hamilton Forced To Deny Ferrari Rumours, F1 Calendar Disaster & Is Lando As Quick As Max?

Alright guys, welcome along to a brand new episode.

Yeah, I mean it's race week, which is always a good week in my opinion.

And we're heading to Baku and I'm hoping...

Actually, it's guaranteed to be a better race than what we saw in Madrid.

Guaranteed.

It's got to be, right? It literally cannot get any worse

than the Madring.

I'm expecting lap one to be better than the whole race of Madrid.

Although I don't know if you've seen, apparently in Madrid, they are planning to change about four or five corners of it to try and make it a bit more entertaining next year.

In my opinion, you need to change, just change the track.

Yeah, I think you need to change like 22 corners.

I think that that would make the track perfect.

It's interesting, actually, just on that topic, because this week we've also seen...

this year's calendar, next year's calendar, sorry, come out.

And 10 sprint races, we've said on this podcast for a long time, they are going to keep introducing more and more sprint races because it's about the cash, not about the fans.

Personally, we've never had a problem with the format of F1, but if you're going to introduce sprint races, introduce them into tracks that make sense.

Obviously, next year, we have a sprint race at Monaco, in my opinion, the lowest IQ thing you can say about that is at least you get two qualifying sessions.

Yet that's, you know, that's just a really, in my opinion, bad way to look at it.

It's absolutely ridiculous.

And I saw a video from Matt Gallagher of the P1 podcast.

And he was saying, you know, who signs off on these decisions? Do you think the people that are at the top of F1 actually like F1? And I think it's actually a really good point to raise because Someone allowed us to go racing at the Madring.

Someone has allowed us to lose, you know, put Spa and Barcelona on rotation.

Over the years, people have allowed us to lose unbelievable tracks, you know, no longer racing at Sepang.

We've lost Hockenheim.

You know, Portimao's gone, come back.
