A moment of silence for all those happily going about their Saturday oblivious to the fact that they are missing the Grand Prix

@spannersready.bsky.social your worries about a car like McLaren just ruining this race and acting as a chicane have been vindicated. Yuck

Never felt less general buzz for a grand prix Sunday 😆 That sprint seems to have killed all anticipation or excitement for race day

The best thing about this cracking tan I get on holiday is people assuming I work at the resort and barking things at me in loud faux broken english and then getting irritated when I don't immediate snap to attention to fix their holiday issue at the place I'm also on holiday at

Question for racing experts and drivers: In karts and sims, I’m much more competitive in understeery machinery. I thrive when the corner work is early and progressive. What does that suggest about my driving style?

I really do enjoy the rapport that @megschuster.bsky.social and @spannersready.bsky.social have built over the past few years of the Ringer F1 Show. It has become one of my favorite podcasts to listen to at work on Mondays after a GP. Keep up the good work!

Don't want to get ahead of myself here, but if Hamilton wins every race from here on in and Antonelli shadows him home in second every race/sprint then Hamilton takes the lead in Singapore and wins the title in Qatar. Antonelli WILL start Qatar with a mathematical chance

the 'Driving a Listeners Porsche' story on the other pod you do that airs on netflix was hysterical and well told just FYI. lololol. Meg and you are natural comedians but also it's a good F1 show! gold star for both pods.

Strong Chart positions for Missed Apex. Best of the rest in the UK and USA Sports Episode charts. #52 in the states and #57 in the UK. Pretty sure we're the top non-works F1 podcast at the moment. Pretty sure the ones above all have company support . Thanks for telling your friends about Missed Apex

Amazing response from Listeners supporting on us on Patreon this week. It's definitely going to make up a portion of what we'll lose from ad revenue over this unexpected break.

Not suggesting that at all. I just think the ones that came into the sport to support Max will leave when he's gone

Honestly any hostility you're picking up on is against the literally thousands of Verstappen fans that have send me abuse over the years. In that context, me having the odd cheeky pop back is nothing to get emotional about

Absolutely not saying all the Dutch will stop watching F1. I just think the Max fanbase has the highest percentage of people that will stop watching once their driver goes

@spannersready.bsky.social you were right Spanners. George is getting prickly. Didn’t hear the radio messages but against Kimi it’s semi-heel stuff. Looking forward to your episode with @megschuster.bsky.social After the race Im buying the new regs.

If I was F1, I'd also 100% be cutting away from the onboards at those derate points. It's the only play they have that makes sense

PSA for all UK people. Remember that the clock changes between qually and the race . So in real terms the actual race is at 5am 6am or 7am

@spannersready.bsky.social @megschuster.bsky.social Fan of Williams and Albon (Mika Hakkinen is my all time fave) and I am a buy on these regs, except for the AI reliance. I think the drivers/teams should be controlling power. #F1

@spannersready.bsky.social @megschuster.bsky.social I’m holding on the new regs. Hamilton fan. What I really want is more graphics that teach us about regs. I’m not sure if a pass is real not to yo-yo. Wheatley will join the Dark Lord.
