The Parc Fermé

Join Paul for a hot lap around the Melbourne circuit ahead of the Australian Grand Prix. How do you get pole position in Australia? Give this a listen and you'll know how and what to look for this weekend.

It's that time of year! The Formula 1 season starts this week in Melbourne Australia and we couldn't be more thrilled about it. In this podcast, We talk about Lewis's contract, Nico's microphone, HALO heretics, and we cover a lot of TPF Mailbag just for you, the listeners. Yes, it's a long podcast but you're worth it, dang it, and we aim to please because without your support, we wouldn't be here making long-form podcasts for you (which happens to be what most of you continually ask for...long podcasts).

Join Paul and me for this very special episode of the TPF Podcast. We hosted out annual F1 Season Preview event at the Contemporary Art Museum in St. Louis Missouri this evening and we thought for this week's podcast, you might like to listen to the show if you weren't able to attend it. We recorded it live and thanks to the fine folks at the museum, we have a mixer to take a direct line-out feed for my recorder. Add some noise reduction and I hope this recording is better than last year's version. We cover a lot of material so apologies for the length but we do get around to each team and driver. Paul and I share our thoughts about the upcoming season. A HUGE thank you to the Contemporary Art Museum, Alex Londe of Can-Am Cars, Eric Nordstrom and of course my co-host and dear friend Paul Charsley.

As an incredibly talented young driver, Spencer discusses his rise to the top and shares his thoughts on the prospects in 2018. We want to thank Spencer (@spencerpigot) and Mazda Team Joest for giving us the time to chat ahead of this weekend's 24 Hours of Daytona.

I know you didn't ask for a 2017 Formula 1 season review podcast but like a dolt, I offered one before the holidays and with all the name changing, shenanigans and goings on, this is the first chance we've had to do one...reluctantly. We review each team and driver and I rank the teams and Paul ranks the drivers...and corrects me on my team rankings because they are daft. We hope you enjoy re-visiting the 2017 F1 season and we offer our sincere apologies for this outrageously long podcast that should be banned for its egregious length and silly impact it may have on your active lifestyle.
