Summary

Tom Clarkson is joined in the Baku paddock by Oscar Piastri’s race engineer Tom Stallard, Sky Sports F1 presenter Natalie Pinkham and ESPN journalist Juan Fossaroli to dissect Piastri's sensational victory at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

How crucial was his late-on-the-brakes overtake of Charles Leclerc on lap 20? And why wasn’t the Ferrari driver able to take P1 back?

You’ll hear reaction from both Oscar and Charles to their gripping battle, as well as a very proud Nicole ‘Mama’ Piastri’.

Also on the agenda: why did Sergio Perez and Carlos Sainz crash on the penultimate lap? How did Lando Norris finish ahead of championship leader Max Verstappen, despite starting P15? And Juan shares insight into Franco Colapinto’s journey to becoming Formula 1’s first Argentine points scorer since Carlos Reutemann in 1982.
