Understanding Verstappen's gripes with F1's 'battery world championship'
Max Verstappen calls it Mario Kart racing. His critics call it sour grapes. Is it possible to come to an agreement over F1's new rules?
Just as we were getting prepared to have Mario Andretti as our next podcast guest a call came through saying that Brian Redman also wanted to join us.

There’s no point in going over Redman’s career here as I am sure you’re all perfectly familiar with it. However, the 12 Hours of Sebring and Targa Florio winner is well known for telling a good story so you can imagine the delights that await both you and us here in the office.

So Andretti and Redman in a room together with Rob steering the chat and Nigel getting stuck in too. As you can imagine Damien and myself may be taking a step back from this one as our past exploits and stories will look relatively lame next to these two.

We’re recording the podcast on February 11 so get your questions in now by clicking here. This really is a great opportunity to question two of motor sport’s greats.
