Customer Reviews
One of the best to do it
I have been watching F1 on and off for years as an American but the recent rise in popularity has meant many of my friends are now watching it too. I refer this podcast to new and casual F1 fans all the time. Christian Betty and Greg are world class media folks who bring professional takes to this pod/sport but they are relaxed and not stuffy so lots of their own personalities are brought through too. Keep up the good work so happy to have been a listener since day one.
Excellent F1 Podcast
I’m a new F1 fan this year and I am trying to learn as much as I can while following this season. I am so happy to have found this terrific podcast. Christian and Betty are great hosts and their interviews with drivers and and other team members are both fun and offer great insights into this season and the world of F1. I’m looking forward to catching up on shows from earlier this season and I eagerly await each new podcast. Massive kudos to Greg James and the team.
Absolutely delightful F1 podcast
I can’t say enough wonderful things about this podcast! From the awesome and funny hosts with great chemistry to the various co-host drivers and unique — often humorous — interviews, this is a must-listen for any F1. But what sets it apart from other podcasts is it’s authenticity. Christian’s passion for F1 is so authentic and contagious, you can’t help but love him, his takes and his interviews. Betty and Greg add so much value to the podcast with their perspectives and humor. It brightens my day every time I listen to an episode, and I learn something new with each one. Keep up the incredible work, team!
