Meg and Spanners are back to break down the race weekend in Shanghai! First, they discuss the double disqualification of Leclerc and Hamilton for not meeting technical regulations despite Hamilton's win in the sprint race (04:17). They applaud McLaren's excellent drives this weekend placing first and second, and they talk about where they stand on Piastri vs. Norris (16:18).
