Summary

In the final race of the triple header, the LB boys ask if Norris can ride his Monaco momentum to another win in Spain, or if Verstappen could bounce back under the new technical directive. They also break down the battle for best of the rest in Barcelona, react to the FIA’s changes to driver fines, and wrap up with a round of Back and Forth... FOLLOW us on socials!

Hello and a very warm welcome to the late breaking F1 podcast presented by Harry Ead, Sam Sage, and me, Ben Hocking.

0:33.9

A preview for the final race of this triple header, the Spanish Grand Prix.

0:37.1

Sam, there's a great term one here, did you know? Is there? Yeah. I've never, I've ever spoken about that before. So it's really odd that you've just like, it's going to throw that out there. Weird. Harry, thoughts on turn one? I'd never heard that either, to be honest. I always thought, Kota had the best term one. Yeah, famously, always spoken about. Just because you went there once. It's one time. Hey, that's it. Twice now. Come on. Yeah, Spanish GP. Coming up this weekend. So we've got all of the usual preview bits, including bold predictions, poll, one, two, three,

under pressure coming up later on as well.

1:18.0

Spanish GPs are held at the circuit to Catalonia every year since 1991.

1:25.3

This will be the last Spanish GP held at the circuit, with it moving to a drink next year.

1:26.1

My dream.

1:28.6

Everyone's favourite.

1:47.7

And Max Verstappen won his first race here back in 2016.

1:51.2

And interestingly enough, since then, only he and Lewis Hamilton have won at this circuit.

1:57.0

I really hate that you brought that out.

1:58.4

I have that saved up as a good fact.

2:00.0

Sorry, I've just stolen the morning your intro. This is really irritating. Sorry, mate. Got any others that I can steal? Obviously, I've got nothing left to save the whole segment, so this is just joyful. Good stuff. McLaren, should we start with them? Because Andrea Stella, after the Monaco Grand Prix called Lando Norris's win, well managed and executed and said that it would just be the start.

2:22.2

Harry, can he go back to back?

2:24.6

He certainly can.

2:26.6

I think if any race was an important,

2:30.5

an important morale boost or confidence boost for Landoahus, it was going to be the Monaco GP and important, you know, morale boost or confidence boost for Lanois.
