Drive To Wynn

On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Lawrence Barretto, Lead Presenter at F1TV. Lawrence & JB share their thoughts on the Japanese Grand Prix, which saw Kimi Antonelli notch his second consecutive win. Do we have a potential controversy brewing inside the Mercedes garage? Our weekend in Suzuka also saw a horrific crash, where amazingly Ollie Bearman only sustained minor injuries…was the cause of the crash an issue the F.I.A. will look to remedy before the Miami Grand Prix? Lawrence also has unprecedented access to F1’s drivers, and offers you a behind the scenes look at their demeanors when off-camera. Lewis Hamilton has a good amount of his swagger back as his Ferrari has been challenging for regular podiums. And is Max Verstappen really so dispirited with these new cars that he’s seriously considering early retirement?

On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Mario Andretti, Cadillac F1 Board Director & Former Formula 1 World Drivers’ Champion.

As for his Cadillac F1 team, he is encouraging everyone to think big and aim for quality points finishes by the end of the 2026 campaign.

Tommy & JB are starting to warm up to the new racing, as we’ve been treated to some spirited battles during the opening laps at both Australia & China.

On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Fred Smith, F1 Editor at Road & Track. Fred recaps our first race of the 2026 campaign, which featured the debut of new cars & regulations. Reviews were mixed to say the least, however Fred & JB agree that the FIA plan to make tweaks along the way to get the sport closer to its roots. As for the Australian Grand Prix itself, Mercedes flexed their muscle early, sending George to both pole position and P1, while teammate Kimi Antonelli finished P2. While Ferrari seems to be our clear #2 team, things are a mixed bag further down the board with McLaren & Red Bull drivers griping about changes to the car. Despite a questionable strategy call, all race fans can agree it was great to see a rejuvenated Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari on the podium with Charles Leclerc’s P3 result.

Mercedes are the heavy favorites based on early data, and Ruth feels George Russell is ready to compete for the WDC crown if the car measures up to expectations. The overarching storylines heading into Melbourne all center around the new car specs and regulations…which should in theory level the playing field across the paddock. As for the Aussie GP, JB thinks we’ll certainly be in for a few shocking moments! Will Ferrari’s wild innovations yield results? Are McLaren sandbagging? Will Max Verstappen’s driving style mesh with his new Ford power unit? And how will debutants Cadillac & Audi fare in their maiden voyage onto the grid?

In analyzing the season finale at Yas Marina, Damon points to the lack of strategy remaining after the McLarens qualified P2 & P3. JB wraps up our third season of the show by reflecting on an incredible 75th season of Formula 1…from the on-track action to the drama in the paddock, and the intriguing three-way title fight down the stretch.

On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Ruth Buscombe back to the studios. The former F1 Strategist & current F1TV Presenter gives you a pit wall perspective on McLaren’s recent gaffes. How has the evolving championship picture pressured their team strategists in both pre-race set up + in-race pit tactics? Although unlikely, she says we cannot count out Max Verstappen, based on past outcomes when the drivers’ title has come down to one final race. We highlight yet another Carlos Sainz podium, where he is now eclipsing his old Ferrari team in points over recent races. And Red Bull shook up their driver lineup, announcing multiple seat changes for 2026 and beyond…will Isack Hadjar be ready to shoulder the weight with such little experience behind an F1 wheel?

On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Guenther Steiner & Chris Medland to the studios. The Las Vegas Grand Prix delivered on high drama, as a chaotic Turn 1 sent Max Verstappen to the lead. He never looked back and took his sixth chequered flag of the year. Chris takes you through the postrace coverage, and details how the news began to spread regarding McLaren’s massive DSQ penalties. He has a theory as to how McLaren ended up in this situation, and points to a few clues during the race that indicated larger forces were at work with their pre-race set up. As a former F1 Team Principal, Guenther gives it to you straight and says the McLaren bosses must now huddle and ensure Lando is their lead driver for the remainder of the season. Anything else would be too risky with just two rounds left (+ Sprint Race) and a surging Verstappen now just 24 points off the lead.

How will the circuit be affected by the massive downpours in recent days, and how will F1 Academy’s final race weekend change the surface?

We also preview this weekend’s race at Monza, where the pressure will be squarely on Fred Vasseur, Lewis Hamilton & Charles Leclerc in front of their hometown tifosi.

On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Chris Medland, F1TV Presenter & SiriusXM Host. Chris takes you inside the paddock at the Miami GP, where vibes were high as McLaren swept the weekend. Oscar Piastri notched his third straight victory, but Chris hints he wasn’t even in top form.

Justin & Chris try to diagnose Ferrari’s woes, as the pressure ratchets up going into Imola week.

On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes David Hobbs, former Formula 1 Driver for McLaren and Motorsports Hall of Famer. David shares his take on what happened in the first corner of the Saudi GP, and loves how Oscar Piastri gave Max Verstappen a taste of his own medicine in such a high-pressure moment. Piastri has now won 3 of the first 5 races, and the hunter will now become the hunted…does the 24yo have what it takes to hold off everyone’s best shot and win a title? Justin can’t believe the reports that Aston Martin is offering over $275 million for Verstappen, but that’s what we said about similar reports last year when Lewis Hamilton was being courted by Ferrari.

On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Stefan Johansson, former Formula 1 Driver for Ferrari & McLaren and current Driver Manager. Stefan reacts to a massive weekend at the Bahrain GP for Oscar Piastri, and explains how the entire complexion of the McLaren team could be changing before our eyes. Just a few short weeks after a spinout in Melbourne, Piastri is now the odds-on favorite to win the 2025 World Drivers Championship. Team orders and priority within the McLaren garage could immediately shift to Piastri, as Lando Norris has displayed spiraling emotions off the track and silly self-inflicted errors between the white lines. We give George Russell his flowers for continued consistency, as he’s now finished P5 or better over the last nine races…all while bringing along emerging 18yo phenom Kimi Antonelli as a teammate. Justin & Stefan also focus on the increased importance of the drivers’ tyre management, as qualifying rounds for every GP this season have been so closely contested.

Guenther recaps the Japanese Grand Prix, where a mostly uneventful race was dominated wire-to-wire by Max Verstappen. What exactly makes Max such a remarkable driver? And will the quicker McLarens be able to dethrone him as Drivers Champion with their two-pronged approach? We also dissect Lewis Hamilton’s continuing transition to Ferrari, where he appears to be lacking in consistency early on. While young Kimi Antonelli remains steady at the wheel for the Silver Arrows, the rest of the rookie class are making very costly mistakes that could jeopardize their seats if they continue to wreck their cars.

Oscar Piastri’s win vaults McLaren to the top of the points, and we can already start to see drama building between their drivers. We also dive into the Liam Lawson / Yuki Tsunoda soap opera, where it appears Yuki is on the verge of being promoted at his home track next week. Why has that second Red Bull seat led to so many early exits? And is their car simply “undriveable” for anyone not named Verstappen?
