Hello F1 fans, are you ready for the new season?

The new season of F1 Nation, of course.

My name's Tom Clarkson and I have some new friends joining me for season 2 of the show.

And I'm Natalie Pinkham and I am one of those friends.

Alex Jakes is gagged and bound in my spare room I had to do whatever it took to get on

this podcast and I'm delighted to say I'm also joined by Damon Hill.

And also Tom, I'm not a new friend, we've known each other for nearly 25 years.

I was born in the paddock but it's absolutely great to be here.

I'm so excited to be able to sit here and chat away about Formula One and all the crazy

things that are going to happen this season.

So you're probably wondering what is F1 Nation?

Well, I thought you were going to answer that question because you did the big sell.

We're here.

So what is it?

Well, thing is, Pinkx.

I think we can make F1 Nation whatever we want it to be.

All blank canvas, Damon, this could be dangerous.

Tom told me I was going to get a chance to talk to all the key people in Formula One,

drivers or technical people, team bosses and maybe some more journalists as well.

We'll try and get them to reveal all their secrets, they're very good at keeping them.

They are indeed.

And the thing is, you guys at home can ask us anything you want.
