  • Esteban Ocon: feeling at home with Haas

    Esteban Ocon: feeling at home with Haas
    Apr 15 2025
    After five years with Alpine, Esteban Ocon is embarking on a new adventure with Haas in 2025.
    What challenges has he faced while settling into his new team? How is he getting on with new race engineer Laura Mueller? What are the strengths and weaknesses of their car?
    Esteban tells Tom Clarkson how he’s adapting to his new surroundings and how Haas have made such a miraculous recovery from a nightmare opening weekend in Australia.
    He also talks about reuniting with Team Principal Ayao Komatsu, whom he raced alongside many years ago, his passion for cars and remote-control racing, his recent cameo in a Netflix film and his dramatic exit from Alpine at the end of 2024.

    Marc Gene: witnessing five World Champions at Ferrari
    Apr 8 2025
    Ferrari ambassador and former test driver Marc Gene has been with the team since 2004.
    During that time, Marc has had the privilege of working alongside five World Champions: Michael Schumacher, Kimi Raikkonen, Fernando Alonso, Sebastian Vettel and now, Lewis Hamilton.
    Do they all have a common trait that makes them so successful? What’s the difference between one-time and multiple World Champions? Speaking to Tom Clarkson, Marc shares stories from his years working with each of those legends.
    The Spaniard also talks about his own racing career in F1, which started with Minardi in 1999, why he loved testing Formula 1 cars for Williams and Ferrari, winning Le Mans in 2009, and much more.

Why would they?

Why would a US born driver go to f1? There is a wide competitive gap amoung the f1teams. We have our own multiple racing series here that are more competitive than f1 on its most exciting day. Much chraper to go too btw. Send more drivers! We'd be happy to have them. No matter what team they're on in Indy they have a chance to win on any day. F1 is an engineering series. What f1 has are the best and brightest engineers the world. Dont confuse the drivers with the engineers

Love it.

I love to hear authentic interviews on the drivers. Beyond the grid is a great addition to audible. Love Charles quote: “Find something within you. Whether it’s in the bad days or good days.”
