Summary
As a special bonus, we're making the Thursday edition of our In-Car Insights podcast - usually only available to The Race Members' Club - free for everyone to listen to.
Angry reactions to "b******t" speculation, intrigue over F1's supposedly agreed 2027 engine plan, and a whole race weekend to look forward to - it was quite the first day in the Canadian Grand Prix paddock for Edd Straw and Jon Noble. What luck that they had a handy shuttle journey in which to record an episode of In-Car Insights!
If you like what you hear - and we're confident you will - head to Patreon.com/therace to sign up to The Race Members' Club and enjoy these bonus episodes (and much more besides) on every grand prix weekend.
