Hello everybody and welcome back to the P1 podcast with Matt and Tommy.

We are here.

It's race week again until we have a big old school holiday.

We, of course, have two cancelled races in April,

which means we have the whole of April off to mull in our thoughts and wonder what is going to happen for the rest of this Formula One season.

But thankfully, we have a race weekend to enjoy it.

Japan, Suzuki, legendary Tommy.

You're on holiday.

I am.

You're having a good time. I am. Yeah, the internet's holding up. I can see you moving. holiday. I am. Are you having a good time?

I am. Yeah, the internet's holding up. I can see you moving. I tried the internet in this Airbnb we've got. And when I checked last night, it was the speed, I did a speed test and it said, 0.02 megabytes. So I'm now... That's not going to do it. No, exactly. I was talking to earlier as a JPEG, but now I've gone and tethered, it seems to be... I can see you moving at least, so it's good time. This is good progress. We're doing something. We're having a conversation. That's all that matters. Now, we need to get into some news before we get into our predictions, which I know a lot of you quite like, is a little bit of a roundup of what's been going on after the last race week,

as it's been a few days. Now, the biggest bombshell has to be Jonathan Wheatley, the team

principal of Audi, leaving after two races due to personal reasons the team has said however

he is also heavily rumoured to be joining Aston Martin because essentially Adrian Newe is not

stepping down as such but just moving his role we never thought he was going to be a full-time team principal anyway.

We also did not think he was going to be taken out of that position after two races.

But clearly the whole problems that are going on at Aston Martin mean that they need his thinking power elsewhere.

And that opens up a slot for Jonathan Wheatley to essentially go there. And it's not

confirmed. It's not happening right now. But it's insanely heavily rumoured and Jonathan Wheatley

could well be joining Aston Martin's team principal after, we don't know how long, but that is such a

crazy story after everything we've heard about him believing in the Audi journey and this, that and the other.

100%. I mean, we were at the Audi launch, weren't we? We got to speak to him. And within two races, the confirmed news is nothing about Adrian Newey yet.
