It’s that time of year when - for some championships - multiple teams and drivers could win world titles, so Lins and Oz dig into how teams and brands prepare to celebrate wins, and why nobody wants to be the person in the team who has to order the 'WINNERS!' t-shirts and jinx it before the season is finished.

Then we dive into the world of relationships in the paddock. Oi oiiii! Alright, not those ones… But do we all get along behind the scenes, despite being competitors on track? Let's hope so, eh, otherwise it would be pretty miserable.

Notes

🏆 Vodafone's winner's tees - some poor sod had to ship these round the world to every race. Hope you're doing OK, wherever you are <3

💸 When Kimi almost bankrupted Lotus through winning too much

🍔 The day Bernie Ecclestone felt kind enough to feed hungry Lotus team members

🧑‍🚒 McLaren ended up on fire, so other teams took in their hospitality guests in Spain because #oneteamonedream

This week, Lins and Oz are chatting about fan community groups that have sprung up in motorsport of late - bravo to them, and long may they prosper.

Plus, where can you get your motorsport fix outside of the big international races? Why not have a look at a local Speedway race? Or maybe a Sunday Scramble in rural Oxfordshire? Or don't. You do you.

Notes

👯‍♀️ Check out the Girls Across The Grid community

💁‍♀️ And their excellent events

☕️ Get your coffee and cars fix at Caffeine and Machine, UK

Lieutenant Porridge and General Donzelot are here to invade for another episode - to see if we can all just stop comparing electric and combustion racing series, once and for all, please? Thanks.

Plus, we've reached peak sports BTS documentary and we're a bit over it. Except for the good ones, which we have handily recommended below. You are welcome.

Notes

🎥 Watch some of the best characters in WRC

😭 Also watch the pre-cursor to Lins' pandemic-failed Valentino Rossi doc

😬 See if you can spot the DTS crew being ignored by Max as he went sailing in St Tropez

📕 Buy Will's new book (and keep an eye out for Lins' book... at some point...)
