If you have family and friends who are on-the-fence fans of Formula 1, the 2018 Bahrain Grand Prix could go a long way into dropping them onto our side of the fence. The nail-biting and edge-of-the-seat action from Bahrain was definitely the perfect advertisement that Formula 1 could ask for.
In this week’s episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Mithila and Kunal rejoice the season’s first of many back-to-back races. They applaud Liberty Media for ensuring that there were no adverse reactions from their meeting with the teams in Bahrain (where they discussed the future of Formula 1). Also, while a brutal way to find out a system issue, Ferrari’s pit error robbed us of a Kimi Raikkonen vs. Lewis Hamilton fight for the podium. They tell you why Valtteri Bottas should have definitely tried harder to overtake Sebastian Vettel and how Mclaren are actually the luckiest team on the grid right now.
Will the cooler conditions in Shanghai bring Mercedes back into focus, and if so, will their ‘party mode’ be hotly discussed yet again? Or will Ferrari have answers to Mercedes’ pace in the 2018 Chinese Grand Prix too? Tune in!
