Hi Everyone,
I can't say that previous Russian GPs have been considered F1 classics, and this was no exception, but could it prove to be a pivotal moment in the F1 championship?
Courtney discuss the fall out of the Russian Grand Prix where Valterri Bottas recorded his second race victory of the 2020 season, his first since the opening race in Austria.
We also discuss the two pre-race penalties for Lewis Hamilton for practice start infringements. He really does seem to get the odd penalties which once again cost him what seemed to be a likely win.
We also look into the rest of the field and look at who will happy after the race in Sochi and who will still be looking for answers.
And finally we discuss the news this week where Chase Carey has announced that he will be leaving his post as F1 CEO at the end of the year, to be replaced by former Ferrari Team Principal Stefano Domenicali. What that means for F1 going forward as well as assessing the short but incredible impact Carey has had at the helm of the sport.

Episode #31 - BREAKING NEWS! Honda to leave F1 at the end of the 2021 Season!

Hi Everyone,
Another huge bombshell has dropped as Honda have announced that will be leaving Formula One as an engine supplier at the end of the 2021 season.
This comes as a huge shock as one of the four F1 engine suppliers announce that they are leaving the sport for the third time after rejoining in 2015.
We go over the highs and lows of Honda's recent spell in F1 as well as why Honda have decided to leave and what impact this has on not only the sport going forward, but also with their customer teams Red Bull & Alpha Tauri.
And also, I would like to dedicate this episode to my co host Courtney who celebrates his 29th birthday today.
As always, thanks for stopping by and listening to our podcast. Please stay safe, and we will see you in the next DNF1 - F1 Podcast.
