The race is on, and who is F-1's most underrated driver? What does underrated even mean? And how do you go about measuring it once you defined it? I'm Ed Straw and joining me to add some definition to these nebulous questions, a Ben Anderson and Samarth Canal. Well, Ben, how are you enjoying the break? Deep in the midst of it now, of course. Hello, Ed. Well, yes, I've actually just come off a break of my own, been in holiday in France the past week. So I missed the Belgian Grand Prix chaos and the fallout week. It was quite mad, and now we're into proper shutdown, aren't we? So I just need to make sure my brain still isn't in shutdown for this challenging podcast. Well, no more so than usual. And Samarth, welcome back to the podcast. How's your brain going? Oh, well, check you out, Ben, on holiday. Some of us have been working this whole time. Yeah, my brain's on, it's firing on all cylinders right now, you know, because I haven't been swanning around in. Where was it? France or Spain? France.

Yeah, well, I haven't been swanning around in France.

No, sorry about that, Ben. I was out of pocket. It's been good. I've just been

absorbing everything from spa. I mean, it's been pretty busy after Spa. Actually, it's not

been much of a whole day, has it? Yeah, there's been plenty going on, although I'm quite looking forward to doing some swanning around in France of my own. So, yeah, there's time for everyone to have a little bit of a break in this period. But it's a good time to talk about some slightly unusual topics and reflect a bit on the season. And we have got a slightly different kind of podcast here today, because this podcast is all about F1's most underrated drivers.

It's inspired by a question posed in the fan census carried out by the race recently.

We'll explain a bit more about that shortly.
