Did Max Verstappen overreact by blaming George Russell for his Qatar penalty? Is Lewis Hamilton hinting at an F1 exit, and should Ferrari worry? Should FIA boss Mohammed Ben Sulayem watch his words after drivers' frustration?

This week, DC and EJ review the Qatar Grand Prix, where tensions ran high both on and off the track, with sparks flying most notably between Max Verstappen and George Russell. Meanwhile, McLaren's hopes for the Constructors' title took a hit as Lando Norris received a 10-second stop-and-go penalty, leaving Ferrari 21 points behind with just one race remaining.

Plus, they share their excitement over Alpine’s decision to give Jack Doohan - son of their close friend Mick Doohan - his debut at this weekend's Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Where does Max Verstappen rank among the F1 greats? Did Carlos Sainz cross the line in Las Vegas? And is the FIA facing an impossible task in replacing the late, great Charlie Whiting?

EJ is without DC this week, who is likely still rubbing shoulders with A-list celebrities in Las Vegas, where Max Verstappen clinched his fourth consecutive world title With this victory, Verstappen joins an elite group as the sixth driver in history to win at least four titles.

No need to worry! EJ has invited his old mate who is no stranger to these parts - Gary Anderson. EJ believes Max Verstappen's recent triumph firmly establishes him as one of Formula 1's all-time greats, while Gary contends that Lando Norris has the potential to be a world champion but must refine certain key aspects of his performance to reach the sport's pinnacle.

Can Max Verstappen clinch his fourth consecutive world title in Las Vegas? Why did the FIA frame Wittich's dismissal as a voluntary departure? Which F1 rookie will make the biggest impact on the grid in 2025?

This week, DC and EJ preview the Las Vegas Grand Prix, where Max Verstappen could clinch the world title with a win in Nevada. However, EJ slams the FIA’s decision to remove race director Niels Wittich and replace him with the inexperienced Rui Marques during this critical stage of the season.

Plus, they’re also excited that F1 teams are investing in rookies for the 2025 season. The last time four full-time rookies debuted was in 2019, with Lando Norris, George Russell, Alex Albon, and Antonio Giovinazzi. In 2025, Andrea Kimi Antonelli, Jack Doohan, Ollie Bearman, and Gabriel Bortoleto will bring fresh talent to the grid.
