Max's Race Engineer Headed To McLaren...In 2028(Red Flag Rundown No. 5)

Fri, 10 Apr 2026 23:05:00 -0400

Because the McLaren F1 team wants to mess with Red Bull now that they're not the top team on track anymore. McLaren isn't the top dog either anymore, but here's to them still attempting to stay relevant in light of the fact that Lando isn't really much of a favorite to repeat as World Champion.Other Episodes Referenced:F101 Spring Break Sprint Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyW_csY3MKcUB4xSDDD3a1QXY3ylMMfkeF1 Team Genealogy Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyW_csY3MKcXu9UMyuGLuK1PE9aiXYoqsF1 Team Genealogy Aston Martin: https://youtu.be/5E0dEnMGnps?si=bcvzi9z5E7cJNryPSpring Break Sprint Episode 10: https://youtu.be/2TnL4v9Clmw?si=54pnI5L3IrYbxixMFollow Going Off Track:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/going.off.track/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7wwpnAMPS6du32PcZGl2vv?si=8e229c627d094632Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/going-off-track-with-kathryn-emily/id1699138189 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl7pLj9uEBtSVTF38skGHqg?sub_confirmation=1

"Risk It For The Brisket" (2025 United States Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 20 Oct 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Shoutout to our friends at ⁨@WhatsApp⁩ and OffBall for inviting us to participate in Season 2 of The Chat, featuring our F1 favorite, Daniel Ricciardo, plus Australian motocross racers Jett and Hunter Lawrence, who provided a ton of insightful and hilarious commentary about the GP.

But that's said...COTA sure did disappoint. Good thing the United States Grand Prix has 9 more chances to make up for it with the contract extension to 2034.

And with Max Verstappen picking up 33 points on the weekend, it's game on for the 2025 World Driver's Championship fight against Oscar Piastri (40 points up) and Lando Norris (26 points up).

Kathryn & Emily also discuss:

-The continuing adventures of the McLaren meltdown

-How Lando Norris and Charles Leclerc gave us the ONLY real entertainment of the grand prix

-How Norris and Oscar Piastri's crash in the opening moments of the sprint was pretty much the most exciting moment of the weekend

-Our skepticism about Apple TV taking over F1's broadcast rights in the United States from ESPN in 2026

-Why we're going to be stuck with MBS for another FIA presidential term

-How we did with our COTA predictions

-And more

Mon, 06 Oct 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Oh Singapore, we want to love you...

The 2025 F1 Singapore Grand Prix was...quite a weekend. George Russell's win was overshadowed by McLaren clinching the 2025 World Constructor's Championship, while McLaren clinching the 2025 World Constructor's Championship was overshadowed by another chapter of Papaya Rules Gone Wrong.

-George Russell & the Mercedes overcut that gave him P2

-How Lando Norris could not overtake if his chances at the Driver's title depended on it

Mon, 08 Sep 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Why does McLaren keep doing Oscar Piastri so DIRTY?

Orange You Glad F1 Is Back? (2025 Dutch Grand Prix Predictions)

Thu, 28 Aug 2025 06:00:00 -0400

After three weeks and about a million years, Formula 1 is finally back in action this weekend in Zandvoort!

We survived the calmest F1 Silly Season in...a lot of years, other than the fact that we spent three weeks hearing "Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas are totally, definitely going to drive for Cadillac in 2026." without actually getting that confirmation from the team itself until...this past Tuesday.

Kathryn & Emily also discuss:

-Our quick thoughts on the 2025 Hungarian Grand Prix

-Why Kathryn is desperate for Lego to sponsor us

-Why Perez and Bottas were pretty much the only choice for Cadillac to make a strong debut in 2026

-McLaren's brand new title sponsor

-Zandvoort....might have weather this weekend?

-Our Dutch GP Predictions

-And more!

Hungry For Some Good Racing (2025 Hungarian Grand Prix Predictions)

Thu, 31 Jul 2025 06:00:00 -0400

One last race before the F1 summer break, we're going to the 2025 Hungarian Grand Prix, and it's all about the fight between Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris for control of the World Driver's Championship.

With a newly reconstructed Hungaroring and rain in the forecast, our predictions are already probably wrong.

Kathryn Has To Say More Nice Things About Lewis Hamilton (2025 Belgian Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 28 Jul 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Well that was a snorefest, huh?

We know, we know, they all can't be bangers, but the 2025 Belgian Grand Prix was not the most fun race we've ever seen.

(And yes, we know we forgot that this was a sprint weekend, because who in their right mind would make one of the longest tracks on the calendar a sprint race?)

In today's episode, Kathryn and Emily discuss:

-Max Verstappen's efforts to make that sprint win stick

-Oscar Piastri's first-lap overtake on Lando Norris to take control of the grand prix

-Lewis Hamilton recovering from one of his most miserable weekends since moving to Ferrari, starting from the pit lane and finishing in the points

-How Alex Albon managed to hold Hamilton off from getting too high in a much-needed bounce-back race for Williams

Thu, 24 Jul 2025 06:00:00 -0400

It feels like a million years, but it's FINALLY race week and Formula 1 is back in action at Spa.

In the wake of Christian Horner's firing at Red Bull as CEO and Team Principal, the team faces its first race with a brand new team boss, Laurent Mekies from their Racing Bulls sister team.

Max Verstappen is going to have SO much fun at media availability this week.

Why Did No One Tell Us F1: The Movie Is A Comedy? (Spoiler Reaction)

Sun, 20 Jul 2025 06:00:00 -0400

F1: The Movie. Let's talk about it.

The good, the bad, the funny, the cameos, the SUPER nitpicky. We break it all down.

From the surprise role for Kevin Magnussen to the Sonny/Kate of it all that we REALLY did not need in the year twenty freaking twenty five to the other questionable plot bits (a driver quit mid-season because the car was bad? really? (Have the F1 movie writers even SEEN what is going on at Alpine right now, a team on fire that drivers still want to drive for?)

Plus:

-Kathryn's theory on the alternate universe the movie takes place in

-Why the mechanics struggles at the movie's portrayal of Silverstone was okay, actually

-The major live F1 race callbacks like Romain Grosjean's Bahrain crash in 2020

-Those Lewis Hamilton glamor shots

-Our ideas for an F1 movie sequel that could actually work

-And more

Christian Horner FIRED (Red Flag Rundown No. 4)

Mon, 14 Jul 2025 06:00:00 -0400

In a move no one saw coming, Red Bull Racing's Christian Horner was FIRED as CEO & Team Principal on Wednesday.

Why did it happen? Why now? Why were Max Verstappen's team given the head's up before Horner was told? What will Horner do next? How will this impact Red Bull throughout the rest of the 2025 season? (Plus, will this stop Verstappen from taking Toto Wolff up on his offer and joining Mercedes for 2026?)

So many questions, and we're going to try to answer them.

Hulk SMASH (2025 British Grand Prix Reaction)

Tue, 08 Jul 2025 16:30:00 -0400

Did the 2025 British Grand Prix deliver or did it DELIVER?

It took Nico Hulkenberg 15 years in F1 and twice as long as any other podium finisher, but he FINALLY got his P3 on Sunday at Silverstone.

And everyone loved that.

We break down:

-Why Hulk deserves to drive a better car than the tractors he's been in throughout the bulk of his career, and why we have slightly higher hopes for the Audi project now

-Our thoughts on that Oscar Piastri penalty (spoiler alert: he deserved it)

-Is Williams back? (Maybe)

-Our thoughts on how Ferrari's upgrades handled a longer track than the one in Austria

-How badly we did with our predictions (again)

-And more!

Not In Front Of The Pit Wall, Lando (2025 Canadian Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 16 Jun 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Kimi Antonelli got his first podium as an Formula 1 driver!

And it was one of the few highlights of the 2025 Canadian Grand Prix. Not that it was a bad race, but Lando Norris tagging teammate Oscar Piastri sure did make things exciting.

Here we thought it was going to be Max Verstappen butting heads with George Russell after they qualified 1-2, but they were shockingly adult about things.

We also discussed:

-The potentially murky future of Alpine in light of the announcement that CEO Luca de Meo plans to step down at the end of the month

-Did we mention that we're in a documentary on Netflix about Kimi Antonelli?

-The super sad reason Lewis Hamilton's car took damage that wasn't shown on TV

-The truly wild weekend of the F1 Academy that saw a complete change in the top five drivers vying for the 2025 title.

-Our prediction fails

-And more

Speaking of predictions, our guest picker, Paul, did just about as well as we did. Want to be featured as our guest predictions picker? DM us on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/going.off.track/) with your podium picks after qualifying for the next race!

Will Red Bull Survive A Max Verstappen Race Ban? (2025 Canadian Grand Prix Predictions)

Thu, 12 Jun 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Congratulations, we survived the two-week break with minimal discourse on the Max Verstappen/George Russell drama from Spain!

Now, it's time for groundhogs, references to Lance Stroll's wrist surgeries, and speculation on what Red Bull's going to do if Max DOES end up getting as 12th penalty point on his license between now and Austria.

Also featuring:

-Kathryn's dad as guest host!

-Thoughts on the 2026 F1 calendar release (those last 6 races are going to be a STRETCH)

-Our Canadian GP predictions

George, Stop Trying To Make A Rivalry Happen (2025 Spanish Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 02 Jun 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Raise your hand if you too are tired of George Russell trying to manufacture a rivalry between himself and Max Verstappen. This ain't Senna v. Prost or Lauda v. Hunt.

(Yes, Max "allegedly" trying to ram George on purpose was bad. He needs to not do that again.)

But after a weird and boring Monaco, the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix was a breath of fresh air, especially since we had more overtakes on lap 1 than we did the entire race last week.

We also discussed:

-How Verstappen's penalty situation could give Red Bull a chance to see how Isack Hadjar does in the big car

-Why Mercedes NEEDS to figure out what's going on with that power unit before Kimi Antonelli develops a complex

-Things are FINE between Lewis Hamilton and his race engineer, thank YOU for asking!

-Nico Hulkenberg's best performance since 2019 (in a TRACTOR)

-Fernando finally getting into the points

-Williams' disaster of a day

-And more

The Appropriate Amount Of Flex (2025 Spanish Grand Prix Predictions)

Thu, 29 May 2025 23:45:00 -0400

It's time to cap off the first European triple-header with the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix!

Since most of the news this week has been dominated by more Monaco GP reactions (it was a weird race, don't miss all our thoughts: https://youtu.be/TwX8lhYKkik?si=aVxzRTWUZG1G-43C), there's not much to talk about, Spain-wise.

But we DO have some rumblings of a future, Abu Dhabi-esque race in Morocco, some new F1 brand partnerships with Pepsi CO (Gatorade, the new sponsor of F1 Sprint Races), and of course, our predictions for the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix.

Back To The Fix Monaco Drawing Board (2025 Monaco Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 26 May 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Well, that was weird.

F1 swung big with the mandatory two-stop experiment at the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix and it was a big, fat strikeout.

Was it good that they tried to find a way to fix Monaco? Absolutely? Do they need to try something else next year? For certain.

And that's not to say that the race didn't have its moments. In an uncharacteristic move, Red Bull's Max Verstappen did everything he could to try and help Ferrari's Charles Leclerc win back-to-back Monaco GPs, but...it's impossible to overtake in Monaco. Awkward.

Not only that, but the battle between Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris is tightening up, which can only lead to a whole lot of Papaya pain. Good luck, McLaren fans. We're Team Oscar.

Thu, 22 May 2025 06:00:00 -0400

It's been months since the FIA announced that the Monaco Grand Prix will be a mandatory two-stop race, and now it's FINALLY time to see if it's going to make the race more exciting or not!

The Racing Equivalent Of Vanilla Gelato With Sprinkles (2025 Emilia Romanga GP Reaction)

Mon, 19 May 2025 06:00:00 -0400

So the 2025 edition of Imola wasn't exciting, but it WAS quite intriguing.

A Max Verstappen win, some interesting McLaren strategy, all that drama with Alpine, the radio call hilarity--this race sure had a lot.

Kathryn & Emily Discuss

-Another effort for MBS to garner favor from the motorsport community, this time using Lewis' dad, Anthony Hamilton

-The return of the Max Verstappen Record Book Portion Of The Podcast with his win in Red Bull's 400th F1 race

-Some questions on McLaren's late-race strategy between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri

-Ferrari's recovery after being thoroughly embarrassed by Aston Martin in qualifying

-Yuki Tsunoda fighting from the pit lane to the points after that scary quali crash

-More on the Alpine drama with Flavio Briatore and Franco Colapinto (who did the one thing Flavio asked him *not* to do)

-Reacting to our Imola predictions

-And more

Moooooom, Flavio Briatore's Breaking Formula 1 Again (2025 Emilia-Romanga GP Predictions)

Thu, 15 May 2025 06:00:00 -0400

While the big, burning question of the fate of Imola (survey says, not great) is definitely one of the big storylines of the weekend, the biggest is, of course, what in the WORLD is happening at Alpine?

Between Oli Oakes' abrupt resignation, Flavio Briatore taking full power over everything at Alpine that he already had (even if Oli was in charge on paper), Jack Doohan getting demoted back to reserve driver and Franco Colpainto coming on with a five-race minimum contract, well--there's a whole lot to unpack.

Not only that, but we also have to discuss:

-The newest F1 movie trailer (Kathryn has Thoughts (TM)!)

-F1: The Academy dropping on May 28

-Cadillac realizing there's not a viable American driver who will be ready in time for the debut in 2026

-The OTHER dumpster fire at the FIA and the potential battle for the presidency between MBS and Carlos Sainz Sr.

-Oh yeah, and our predictions for Imola

-And more!

More Overtakes For $1000, Please (2025 Bahrain Grand Prix Predictions)

Thu, 10 Apr 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Formula 1 is back for part two of this spring doubleheader, kicking off in Bahrain this weekend, in a race that will hopefully be more exciting than Suzuka.

Not that we don't love Suzuka, but that WAS a parade.

With not much news in the days between Japan and Bahrain, Kathryn and Emily discuss:

-The future of the F1 calendar

-Why Alpine really needs to get its house in order

-All the rookie driver appearances we'll see in FP1 (if you're waking up for that, which Kathryn is not)

-Our Bahrain 2025 predictions

-And more

Pit Happens (Feat. 1 Very Expensive Lawn Mower) (2025 Japanese Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 07 Apr 2025 06:00:00 -0400

To paraphrase one of Kathryn's favorite Broadway Musicals, Legally Blonde: "Oh look, it's a parade!"

Yeah, so the 2025 Japanese Grand Prix was...not a banger. We know they can't all be bangers, but we still expected more out of our beloved Suzuka.

In our reaction, we discuss:

-Max Verstappen out-driving the heck out of that Red Bull

-Why McLaren should have won that race but they're cowards

-The impressive drives from the rookie trio of Kimi Antonelli, Isack Hadjar and Ollie Bearman

-Our thoughts on Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawson's performances post Red Bull/Racing Bulls switch

-Why Alpine really didn't need to (and shouldn't have) replaced Jack Doohan for FP1 when Pierre Gasly was right there

-And more

**** Yeah Yuki! (2025 Japanese Grand Prix Predictions)

Thu, 03 Apr 2025 06:00:00 -0400

It's the moment we've all been waiting for: After being overlooked for years, Yuki Tsunoda has finally been called up to drive for Red Bull.

And at his home race. With Red Bull's last home hurrah with Honda. In a livery inspired by the Japanese flag.

This could a groundbreaking weekend of Yuki's F1 career.

We discuss. And predict Suzuka. And more.

Someone Check On The Tifosi! (2025 Chinese Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 24 Mar 2025 05:00:00 -0400

We were all set to have a quick little episode on how the Chinese Grand Prix sprint race was exciting but the GP itself was a snoozer. Easy and quick.

And then we woke up to the news that BOTH Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were disqualified, along with Alpine's Pierre Gasly, leading to Williams Racing picking up the same amount of points it managed during all of 2024, plus a bounce-back performance from Haas.

Oh, and Oscar Piastri won the race, not that you would know considering the TV direction focused more on Isack Hadjar and Jack Doohan battling for P14.

So, as always, we have thoughts.

Also featuring Kathryn's recap of the first round of the 2025 F1 Academy season, featuring:

-Nina Gademan's heartbreaking loss in race 1 due to a technical issue

-Alisha Palmowski leading the Red Bull family charge to a victory in just her second F1 Academy appearance

-Doriane Pin's domination in Race 2 over rival Maya Weug

-And more

Gas Up The Safety Car, We're Going Sprinting (2025 Chinese Grand Prix Predictions)

Thu, 20 Mar 2025 05:57:00 -0400

Formula 1 is back in action and it's time for the first sprint race of the year.

Is it too soon for the first sprint race of the year? Well, we'll see this weekend!

Not only that, but F1 Academy is back for its third season running, now featuring 5 teams, a handful of epic liveries, and a new crop of rookie drivers ready to make names for themselves in the wake of Abbi Pulling's dominant performance in 2024.

This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Cars (2025 Australian Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 17 Mar 2025 06:00:00 -0400

Back at the top of the calendar for the first time since 2019, the Australian Grand Prix was packed with chaos from start to finish.

We had a formation lap crash (*and are still crying over the moment between Isack Hadjar and Anthony Hamilton*), a first lap crash, a safety car crash, three more crashes in three camera pans, a wet track, a drying track, a sudden rain storm on track that sent everyone sliding.

It was wild, and everything we could have asked for to open the F1 season we've been waiting for, for literally an entire year.

The Rookies WILL Cause Chaos (2025 Season & Australia Predictions)

Thu, 13 Mar 2025 18:15:00 -0400

Chaos? Chaos.

The 2025 season, aka: the season we spent all of 2024 discussing) is shaping up to be a wild one, so let's dive in to both our full 2025 season predictions and our predictions for the 2025 Formula 1 Louis Vuitton Australian Grand Prix.

Featuring our five (or six, depending on how you count Liam Lawson) rookies, which teams we expect to do well and disappoint, who we think is in the running for the World Driver's and Constructors championships, and more.

What Netflix Didn't Show In Drive To Survive Season 7

Tue, 11 Mar 2025 19:15:00 -0400

Drive To Survive Spoilers ahead!

The 2025 F1 Season is coming up, which means it's time to relive 2024 through the Netflix juggernaut, Drive To Survive.

But...was what we saw on DTS...accurate?

Sure it showed McLaren beating out Ferrari for the Constructor's Championship and Max Verstappen winning his fourth World Driver's Championship, but...did the seventh season miss some key points? Or even...manufacture drama that didn't actually happen.

Of course it did! It's Netflix. They live for the drama, whether it's real or not!

So tune in for the context you missed, our thoughts on what we liked, and what we'd like to see Netflix include in season 8 and beyond.

Is Jack Doohan's F1 Career Already Over (F1 Winter Break Check-In)

Mon, 20 Jan 2025 05:00:00 -0400

Is Jack Doohan's F1 career over before it really starts? Flavio Briatore signing Franco Colapinto to a multi-year reserve driver contract speaks to...well, probably a big fat yes.

Unlike the last offseason, where we had about eight million things to discuss between the Guenther Steiner firing at Haas and Lewis Hamilton's shock move to Ferrari, this offseason is...a lot quieter.

So we're going to discuss Alpine, even though we really don't want to, and also Jos Verstappen clearing up that one Max Verstappen rumor, and how Kathryn was totally right about what F1 is going to do with its future calendars.

Our Favorite Alternate Helmets & Liveries From The 2024 Formula 1 Season

Mon, 06 Jan 2025 05:00:00 -0400

2025 is here, but here's one last video about 2024:

Our favorite alternate helmets (and liveries) from the 2024 F1 season.

From Alex Albon's ICONIC Panda Helmet to Fernando Alonso's 400th race tribute from the Mexico GP to Daniel Ricciardo's pancakes and syrup helmet from Canada and even Max Verstappen's 4-time World Champion helmet, there are TONS of alternate helmets up and down the grid that we loved.

(And a few that were just...helmets the drivers wore).

Shoutout to F1HLM for compiling all the 2024 Helmets in one graphic: https://www.reddit.com/r/formula1/comments/1hbx90h/compilation_of_2024_formula_1_helmet_designs_of/

Of course, who can forget some of the most iconic liveries of 2024:

-VCARB's Miami Livery

-VCARB's Jeans Livery

-VCARB's Glitter Livery

Oh yeah, and Alpine had some...notable alternate liveries too.

The countdown is on for the 2025 Livery Reveals on Feb. 18!

The End Of An Era? (2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 09 Dec 2024 05:00:00 -0400

And that is the 2024 Formula 1 season in the books!

The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix wasn't the most exciting race, but Max Verstappen tangling with Oscar Piastri at turn 1 did give us some intrigue as Ferrari tried to take the Constructors title that ultimately went to McLaren for the first time since 1998.

Kathryn and Emily also discuss:

-Lewis Hamilton's emotional final race with Mercedes

-Max Verstappen is about to become a father...and he's about to do that community service out in Rwanda this week

-The moment that foreshadowed Oscar Piastri's future driver's title?

-Pierre Gasly helping Alpine to its shock P6 finish (and the team's icky separation from Esteban Ocon)

-Nico Hulkenberg helping Haas to its best season since 2018 in his final race with the American outfit

-What could possibly be next for Valtteri Bottas

-The Checo Perez of it all, and when we should expect to hear about the fate of that second Red Bull seat

-The wild final F1 Academy of the season

-And more

Who had a double Alpine podium on their bingo cards, because we sure didn't!

What's My Name Again? (F1 Team Genealogy Part 5)

Wed, 16 Oct 2024 02:00:00 -0400

How many team names can an F1 team be named? So many names.

We're back with Part 5 of our F1 Team Genealogy series, covering two of the most entertaining team histories: Alpine and Aston Martin.

From Kimi Raikkonen almost bankrupting Lotus, Flavio Briatore being banned from F1 for life (but also not), CrashGate, Midland and Spyker and Force India's financial collapse, plus Daddy Stroll buying a team for his son, there's definitely a lot to talk about for a pair of teams that don't have much relevance to the F1 World Championship race.

A Pair Of Modern Heavyweights (F1 Team Genealogy Part 4)

Thu, 10 Oct 2024 22:00:00 -0400

As we inch closer to the end of the Formula 1 "fall break", we inch closer to the end of our F1 Team Genealogy Series.

In today's episode, Kathryn and Emily talk the histories of the two most successful modern teams: Red Bull and Mercedes.

For Red Bull, it started with a former F1 driver, shifted to become an advertising board for an American car company, and then the brain child of motorsport racer Christian Horner.

And for Mercedes, whose history begins with the questions, what would have it been like if Mercedes didn't bow out of Motorsport after the 1955 Le Mans disaster? Decades later, it picks back up with Tyrell racing, a stint as the iconic British American Racing, a hot minute with Honda, the smash hit success with Brawn, before the return of one of the most successful teams in modern motorsport.

Rebrands For 200, Alex (F1 Team Genealogy Part 3)

Tue, 08 Oct 2024 09:00:00 -0400

Can I interest you in a rebrand? Or you? Or you?

*Insert Oprah gif here*

In Part 3 of our F1 Genealogy project, we cover the two teams on the grid with the current worst names in the history of Formula 1: Stake F1 Team Kick Sauber and Visa Cashapp RB.

They're a pair of teams with some interesting history, a bunch of notable drivers who didn't do much while driving for those teams, and rebrands every 20 minutes, including some that Emily refuses to accept for valid reasons (because let's be real, AlpahTauri is one of the blandest fashion brands ever).

Teams On The Rise? (F1 Team Genealogy Part 2)

Fri, 04 Oct 2024 06:00:00 -0400

F1 Team Genealogy is back and...did we really go from two of the most historic and successful F1 teams to...Haas and Williams?

Yes, we did.

But there is a method to our madness, we promise.

In today's episode, we discuss:

-How Kevin Magnussen is actually kind of Haas' most successful driver?

-How the brain child of Gene Haas and Guenther Steiner (though, we all know it was mostly Guenther) could never be replicated in modern F1

-Our thoughts on Ollie Bearman's future at Haas

-Williams' journey from family team to Mercedes training ground to a potential contender in the new regulation?

-How Alex Albon, Carlos Sainz and Franco Colapinto will lead Williams to a new future

-And more

The Oldies But Goodies (F1 Team Genealogy Part 1)

Mon, 30 Sep 2024 06:00:00 -0400

It's Formula 1's weird Fall Break and we are BACK with the F101s we've been threatening to do since before the Summer Break.

In our F1 Team Genealogy series, we're going to explore the histories of the F1 teams we know and love on the 2024 grid. Who were they before the team names we know now.

And we're starting things off with the easy ones: the oldest surviving F1 team in Ferrari, and the second oldest surviving team in McLaren, who have only ever been known by those names.

Mon, 23 Sep 2024 06:00:00 -0400

Well Singapore sure was...a humid parade!

-Max Verstappen's surprising P2 finish

-And also Max Verstappen's tangle with the FIA, who have chosen an unnecessarily banal hill to die on

-Oscar Piastri's under-represented charge to P3

-Franco Colapinto's lap 1 dive that was one of the few exciting moments from the race

-Daniel Ricciardo's potential swansong as rumors swirl that he's going to be replaced by Red Bull reserve driver Liam Lawson for the rest of the season

-Ferrari's disappointing weekend

-Our terribly inaccurate Singapore GP Predictions

-Abbi Pulling's strong weekend with the F1 Academy (feat. Kathryn's gripes about their qualifying process)

This Is Now A Williams Fan Account (Azerbaijan Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 16 Sep 2024 06:00:00 -0400

To paraphrase SNL's Stefon, this.race.has.everything.

Papaya rules not being a factor. Oscar Piastri's flawless overtake on Charles Leclerc en route to the win. Leclerc losing out from pole in Baku for the fourth straight season. A resurgent(?) Sergio Perez coming together with Carlos Sainz on Lap 50 of 51. Williams double points! Franco Colapinto getting more points in one race than Logan Sargeant did in his entire time in F1. Ollie Bearman subbing for his second team this season AND beating teammate Nico Hulkenberg. George Russell somehow finishing P3?

So much.

And we are so tired.

We also discuss:

-The rumors of a VCARB seat announcement in Singapore

-Yuki Tsunoda's disappointing day

-Our predictions for Baku

-And how excited we are for Singapore.

Wed, 31 Jul 2024 07:00:00 -0400

Deadpool’s Day At (The) Spa (Our Belgian Grand Prix Predictions)

Thu, 25 Jul 2024 09:00:00 -0400

We’re going to the Belgian Grand Prix, which means it’s the final race before the Summer Break!

With a planned Max Verstappen grid penalty, a driven Lando Norris and driving rain predicted for Qualifying, it is shaping up to be a wild weekend to close out the first half of the 2024 season.

Fresh off spending three days in the wilderness, Kathryn joins Emily to also discuss:

-Esteban Ocon’s shiny new multi-year deal at Haas for 2025

-And what it means for Ollie Bearman’s rookie season with the American squad

-The drama behind the scenes at Alpine with the rumors that Team Principal Bruno Famin is going the way of Otmar Szafnauer by also getting fired but still having to work the Belgian Grand Prix

-That Alpine DOES ACTUALLY know what a good livery looks like, with the Deadpool and Wolverine movie tie in (and that they CHOSE to inflict their primary liveries on us on purpose)

-Our thoughts on Mattia Binotto taking over as team boss of Sauber-Audi in the wake of Andreas Seidl’s sudden departure (and what that could mean if Carlos Sainz ever decides to tell us where he’s going to race in 2025)

-And why F1 agrees with us that Wildcard entries are bad for the sport and just won’t work within the current structure of F1, and also why it really means that F2 needs to improve to prepare rookies to drive at the highest levels of sport

-Also, sharing our Belgian GP Predictions, which we are completely and totally not confident in

-And more!

Papaya Power! Oscar Piastri Takes First F1 Win (Hungarian Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 22 Jul 2024 09:00:00 -0400

Well, that sure was a race!

The 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix may not be one for the history books, other than Oscar Piastri’s maiden F1 victory, but it sure was, once again, overshadowed by a massive McLaren strategy blunder, a very (rightfully) upset Lando Norris and a Max Verstappen who, according to Crofty, was overtired from all that sim racing the night before.

In our opening of the second half of the season, Kathryn and Emily also discussed:

-That news about Kevin Magnussen leaving Haas at the end of the season

-Kimi Antonelli’s statements about maybe not being ready for F1

-Whatever the heck is going on with Sergio Perez and how the 2024 season could easily end with him off the grid (or sooner!)

-Kathryn says nice things about Lewis Hamilton’s recent podium milestones and feels weird about it

-Relived our predictions for the grand prix

-And the burning question Emily almost forgot to ask before we finished recording.

Hungary, Hungary Helmets (2024 Hungarian Grand Prix Predictions)

Thu, 18 Jul 2024 08:00:00 -0400

Welcome to the second half of the 2024 Formula 1 season, we’re headed to the Hungaroring in Hungary, and it’s going to be a scorcher!

With an excessive heat warning in, well, the entire country, conditions in Hungary are bound to be some of the most challenging this season, right up there with the 2023 race in Qatar that saw a number of drivers retire, require assistance getting out of the car, and even passing out in the track’s hospital facility.

In our predictions episode, we also discuss:

-Those rumors about Esteban Ocon signing with Haas for 2025

-Lewis Hamilton’s exciting new partnership and capsule collection with Dior

-Haas’ continuing technical partnership with Ferrari (and their continued legal woes with former title sponsor Uralkali)

-Ralf Schumacher’s new announcement

-Of course we have thoughts on the 2025 Sprint Calendar (Spa? Really?)

-More about the weather the drivers will be fighting against

-And, of course, our 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix race weekend predictions.

Carlos Sainz, Diamond Of The Season (2024 Spanish Grand Prix Predictions)

Fri, 21 Jun 2024 02:41:00 -0400

It’s time for the 2024 European triple-header, first stop: the 2024 Spanish Grand Prix!

In today’s episode, filmed with an active summer camp outside Kathryn’s window while Emily’s chilling in a hotel in…Chile, the week off between races has left us with a TON to talk about.

And of course, we couldn’t kick off today’s episode without a little (more) discussion of Carlos Sainz’ future on the grid, and when we think we’ll hear him finally make a decision that almost half the grid is also waiting for (and, you know, his fans too).

We also discuss:

-Charles Leclerc’s opportunity to represent his country when the 2024 Olympic Flame traveled through Monaco

-That we FINALLY have a release date for the Brad Pitt F1 movie

-Why Alpine may consider going to a new engine supplier for the 2026 regulations

-Why the FIA added a caveat to the Max Verstappen Super License Rule to allow Kimi Antonelli to participate in practice sessions prior to his 18th birthday this coming August.

-An update on the F1 Academy leading to this weekends’ support races in Barcelona (including why Mercedes’ Doriane Pin was forced to miss out on Le Mans)

-Our opinions on Sky Sports commentary personalities

-And our predictions for the 2024 Spanish Grand Prix (which will hopefully get us points because it’s been a minute since either one of us scored on a prediction)

-And more!

Was This The Best Race Of The Year? (Canadian Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 10 Jun 2024 08:00:00 -0400

The 2024 Canadian Grand Prix may go down as one of the best races of this season.

It. Had. Everything.

DNFs, TWO safety cars, dumb Ferrari tyre strategy, drivers crashing into each other, spins, a false start that probably wasn’t, Alpine double points!

Kathryn & Emily break it all down, from:

-Zak Brown’s McLaren tattoo update

-Yuki Tsunoda’s contract extension with VCARB (and why the move makes us think he’ll join Aston Martin in 2026)

-Daniel Ricciardo’s EPIC Syrup Badger helmet

-Max Verstappen winning his 60th career race

-How McLaren probably blew Lando Norris’ chances of winning in Montreal thanks to some suspect strategy

-George Russell with another hilarious radio call en route to a disappointing P3 from Pole

-Daniel Ricciardo vs. Jacques Villeneuve, enough said.

-Alpine’s double points finish!

-The disaster of a day for Ferrari with Monaco winner Charles Leclerc retiring and Carlos Sainz crashing out of the race

-Sergio Perez doing Sergio Perez things, but not in a good way...

-How this epic, rainy weekend completely demolished our GP predictions.

Oh CanadAHHHHHHH! A Groundhog! (Canadian Grand Prix Predictions)

Fri, 07 Jun 2024 06:00:00 -0400

It’s summertime for the Going Off Track podcast, and the Canadian Grand Prix marks our Instagram account’s 1-year anniversary! Don’t forget to follow us at @Going.Off.Track for our updates and anecdotes between episodes.

(Programming note: as it IS summer and Kathryn’s running a camp while Emily is traveling, our schedule for posting may be a bit flexible over the next few months. Follow us on Instagram for updates on when new episodes will drop.)

More importantly, Kathryn & Emily had a lot of news to react to in the weeks between the Monaco and Canadian Grands Prix, including:

-Esteban Ocon parting ways with Alpine at the end of the season

-The unsurprising news of Sergio Perez resigning with Red Bull (BUT the surprise of the duration of his new contract)

-Why we think that FIA boss Mohammed Ben Sulayem’s backtracking on Andretti bringing and 11th team to the grid may mean certain doom for Haas, especially in light of the announcement of the Stewart-Haas NASCAR team shutdown at the end of 2024

-Lewis Hamilton’s entertaining and (at moments) unhinged appearance at Hot Ones

-Our thoughts on the news that Red Bull believes it may struggle in Canada, especially in light of the fact that Ferrari is only 24 points behind in the constructor’s standings

-What this week’s weather forecast means for the race weekend

-Our 2024 Canada Predictions

-And, of course, more.

Hometown Hero(es) Go 1-2 (Monaco Grand Prix Reaction)

Mon, 27 May 2024 08:00:00 -0400

The 2024 Monaco Grand Prix will not go down in history as the most memorable Grand Prix in Formula 1 history…except for the fact that Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc FINALLY beat his home race curse and won in the principality for the first time.

But that was really the only thing going for the race.

(Pro tip: if you didn’t watch live, watch the opening laps, and then skip ahead to about Lap 75. There’s really not much to see in the middle)

In today’s episode, Kathryn & Emily discuss:

-Our favorite custom Monaco helmets for the weekend (and why Lando Norris' helmets are always awesome)

-Why Prince Albert of Monaco was probably the highlight of the whole weekend

-Oscar Piastri’s adoption into the Leclerc family and how F1 social media is some of the best social media on the internet.

-Our disappointment in F1 driver fashion this season, except for Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton

-The opening lap disaster of a crash between Haas’ Kevin Magnussen and Nico Hulkenberg and Red Bull’s Sergio Perez

-What even George Russell’s race strategy was

-The great radio calls all weekend long

-ALL the drama at Alpine, especially in light of Ocon making contact with Gasly. Again.

-Why we’re not going to know until 2 weeks in Canada how the grid is shaping up in light of the Imola upgrades

-Relived our Monaco predictions (which went as badly as you expected)

-If Monaco should still remain on the F1 calendar in light of this year’s race

-And more

In today’s episode, Kathryn & Emily discuss:

-Andretti’s new F1 hire, Pat Symonds

Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix Reaction: Well…That’s Imola

Mon, 20 May 2024 08:00:00 -0400

Imola! Well, that was…a race.

We’re not going to lie, even with Lando Norris trying to get Max Verstappen in those last few laps, we were not really all that impressed with the race.

Was the beginning exciting with the battle between Carlos Sainz and Oscar Piastri? Yes. Was the end exciting? Yes. But the middle? No.

And can we talk about the fact that Max Verstappen won in Imola after also winning a 24-hour sim race? Ridiculous.

In today’s episode, Kathryn & Emily also discuss:

-McLaren telling Red Bull, “game on” with their full package of upgrades

-How anonymous Charles Leclerc’s P3 was

-How Carlos Sainz needs to improve on qualifying so he can put himself in a better position in the race.

-How impressive Yuki Tsunoda’s performance was all weekend long

-Why we’re (okay, mostly Kathryn) worried about Sergio Perez after his rough weekend

-How excited we are for Monaco next week

-And relieved our Imola race predictions.

Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix Predictions: Imola, The Land Of Upgrades

Thu, 16 May 2024 08:00:00 -0400

It’s time for the Formula 1 MSC Cruises Gran Premio Del Made In Italy e dell’Emilia-Romagna 2024 (or, Imola for short)

Now, we haven’t raced in Imola in two years, thanks to the flooding that forced the race’s cancelation in 2023, so this is going to be new territory for a number of drivers, especially in light of the changes made to the track.

In today’s episode, Kathryn & Emily discuss

-The news of Alex Albon’s multi-year extension with Williams

-The rumors surrounding a potential stay for Valtteri Bottas at Sauber

-The shocking idea that someone who WASN’T Max Verstappen and Red Bull led the Drivers Championship and Constructors Championship last time we raced at Iola

-The raft of upgrades we’ll be seeing from the likes of Aston Martin, Red Bull, Ferrari, Mercedes, McLaren and Sauber

-How excited we are to see Ollie Bearman’s appearance in FP1 for Haas’ Nico Hulkenberg

-Our very well thought out and SECRET race predictions for Imola 2024

-And more

From Our DMs No. 3: F1 Fans Try To Fix The Sprint Format

Mon, 13 May 2024 08:00:00 -0400

In today’s episode of From The DMs, Kathryn & Emily tackle (or try to) a question that…may not actually have an answer:

How do we fix the formula 1 sprint format?

Now, we on the Going Off Track podcast have made clear how much we don’t love the sprints (see: our 2023 Qatar Grand Prix recap), but we will admit that the 2024 format IS an improvement from what we had to deal with last season.

As of recording, we’ve only had two sprint weekends so far, so there’s every chance that China and Miami were flukes, but we do admit that we hate it slightly less.

But is the 2024 format better than the 2021 format?

Yes in some ways and no in a lot of others.

Throughout the episode, Kathryn & Emily also discuss:

-Why we can & should get rid of the sprints

-But why F1 won’t

-Why Monaco could work out very well as a sprint race

-If a sprint championship could help make things better

-Or maybe turning the sprints into a spec series.

-Or maybe, maybe it’s just all a bunch of unnecessary gimmicks.

So, tune in to see if we really did manage to fix the sprint format in 45 minutes.

Miami Grand Prix Reaction: Lando Has Landed!

Mon, 06 May 2024 09:00:00 -0400

Lando Norris has won his first F1 race!

Miami was a weekend we did not expect it to be, but in all the best ways.

In today’s episode, Kathryn & Emily react to:

-Lando Norris’ first-ever F1 win!

-The absurd amount of sportsmanship and support from the rest of the grid after Lando’s win

-Daniel Ricciardo besting Carlos Sainz in the surprisingly entertaining sprint

-Kevin Magnussen’s day as human wrecking ball and penalty record winner (probably)

-Fernando Alonso is mad at the stewards for anti-Spanish bias

-Max Verstappen not winning a race that he actually completed for the first time since Singapore 2023

-How much we REALLY still hate that awful Ferrari “blue” livery

-Abbi Pulling’s dominant weekend in the F1 Academy feature races

-F1 Academy getting the Drive To Survive treatment with a Netflix series from Reese Witherspoon’s production company, Hello Sunshine

-And how our weekend predictions were completely destroyed, but in all the best ways.

(Oh, and we’re pretty sure KMags just picked up another 10-second penalty as we wrote these show notes.)

P.S. Did you hear, Lando Norris won his first F1 race, and everyone loved that.

Miami Grand Prix Predictions: We’re Blue…Ferrari Blue (Da Ba Dee Da Ba Di)

Thu, 02 May 2024 08:00:00 -0400

It’s time to head to Miami and we have OPINIONS.

Mostly on just how bad we think the whole “Blue Ferrari” livery drop has gone, but also things like:

-Adrian Newey confirmed to be leaving Red Bull, and how, to be quite honest, we really don’t care.

-United States’ Congress deciding it wants to get involved with the Andretti F1 bid

-Guenther Steiner’s lawsuit against Haas for failure to pay out commissions owed

-How many different places Ferrari has put the new HP logo on their car

-VCARB’s surprise “Chameleon” livery drop

-That…Sergio Perez might just have the custom helmet of the weekend

We also cover the F1 Academy updates ahead of their second weekend of the season in Miami, debate if Miami or Vegas is the most cringe F1 race of the year, and of course, make our race predictions for both the Grand Prix and the sprint.

From Our DMs No. 2: Silly Season, Sillier Speculation

Mon, 29 Apr 2024 08:00:00 -0400

Remember those wonderful days when the F1 Silly Season was like, a 3-5 week span in August every year, give for take the small handful of seats that would be announce at the end of the season?

Yeah, we totally don’t have that this year, at all.

And it’s not even like 2022 when the Silly Season unknowingly started when Sebastian Vettel, then at Aston Martin, announced his retirement in his very first Instagram post.

This Silly Season started on February 1. Thanks Lewis Hamilton.

It feels like you can’t talk about the 2024 season without talking about 2025, and we, Kathryn & Emily, spend a good amount of time speculating about the driver market in our DMs.

So in today’s episode of In Our DMs, we give our: our 2025 Silly Season Silly Speculation.

We’re going to discuss:

-Our predictions for the 2025 grid (serious)

-Some key dominos that need to fall before we really get a sense of what the grid will look like next year

-Who we probably WON’T see on the grid in 2025 (and our apologies to them)

-Dream driver pairings we know we’re never going to see

-Pairings straight out of F1’s worst nightmares

-Drivers who are safe, even if they don’t necessarily have a seat on the grid yet for 2025

-And more

Chinese Grand Prix Reaction: Is It Hot In Here Or Did The Track Just Catch Fire?

Tue, 23 Apr 2024 08:00:00 -0400

Programming note: Technology sucks sometimes, and the platform we use to record our pod decided not to sync our audio tracks correctly (and also dropped some hilarious bits of audio completely), so Kathryn had to puzzle piece the episode together in iMovie. 0/10, do not recommend if you don’t have to. So there may be a couple odd cuts, but your listening experience should be fine overall. And if you’re watching on YouTube and wondering why Kathryn keeps disappearing, it’s because of the audio tracks.

Hey Siri, play “We Didn’t Start The Fire” by Billy Joel.

We didn’t have the track catching fire on our 2024 bingo cards, and especially not that it happened TWICE.

But that said, we survived our first sprint of the 2024 season!

We discussed:

-How the Chinese Grand Prix sprint was only actually exciting because it rained

-How much we loved Zhou Guanyu’s performance this weekend as the first Chinese driver to compete in the Chinese GP

-The potential change of points allocations starting in the 2025 season

-Lando Norris’ ups and downs, going from botching the sprint start to ending up P2 in the Grand Prix (and he didn’t break a trophy this time either!)

-Max Verstappen doing Max Verstappen things, etc. etc.

-How Daniel Ricciardo’s new chassis impacted his weekend (until Lance Stroll rear-ended him)

-How Race Control absolutely messed up the safety car deployment

-And more!

Chinese Grand Prix Predictions: Pandas and Sprints and Zhou, Oh My!

Thu, 18 Apr 2024 08:00:00 -0400

For the first time in 5 years, Formula 1 is racing in Shanghai!

In this episode, Kathryn and Emily discussed:

-Fernando Alonso’s contract extension with Aston Martin, leading to his future as an advisor a la Niki Lauda with Mercedes

-Our thoughts on the 2025 F1 calendar, which puts the Australian GP back where it belongs

-Rumors about the F1 teams seeking to limit the grid to 10 teams in the upcoming Concorde agreement for 2026-30

-The Chinese GP special helmets, including the one we things is in the running for Helmet Of The Year

We also take a look back at the 2019 Chinese Grand Prix, the 1000th race in F1, including the rookie class, who was on the grid, and who isn’t on the grid anymore. And also: what Fernando Alonso and Esteban Ocon did off grid that season.

We also discuss our lack of faith in the 2024 sprint format (seriously, why do the drivers need to qualify TWICE in one weekend?) and also make our predictions, which are probably going to be completely and totally wrong by the time we get to the end of the weekend.

F101: A Deep Dive Into F1's Young Driver Programs

Mon, 15 Apr 2024 08:00:00 -0400

As much as it pains us to say this, Fernando Alonso isn’t going to be on the grid forever.

But on the positive side, there are a ton of young drivers clamoring for his seat, you know, once he decides to actually retire again for good, which of course, won’t be for a goof long time with the announcement of Alonso’s contract extension with Aston Martin.

Enter: the Driver Development Programs

Join Kathryn and Emily on this deep dive into the future of F1 and motorsport as a whole, including:

-Why these programs exist in the first place

-The path(s) drivers can take to get to F1

-What goes into getting those coveted Super License points

-Continued questions on if F2 and F3 are actually doing enough to prepare young drivers for F1

-All about the F1 Young Driver Test sessions

-A discussion on if those F1 driver sessions will ever be an F1 Academy driver (and we also talk about Max Verstappen’s recent comments on the F1 Academy)

-And, of course, highlight some of the current most promising young drivers trying to climb their way onto the F1 grid

Japanese Grand Prix Reaction: But Is Alex's Chassis Okay?

Mon, 08 Apr 2024 08:00:00 -0400

For a track that’s difficult to overtake on, we sure saw a ton of overtakes at the 2024 Japanese Grand Prix, especially in that midfield.

Of course, Max did Max things, again, leading Red Bull to its third 1-2 finish of the season, followed by Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz in P3.

In today’s episode, Kathryn & Emily discuss:

-Verstappen joining the 3000+ Laps Led Club

-Bernie Collins killing it in the SkySports pre-show

-Sergio Perez’ solid weekend, including his closest qualifying margin to Verstappen in a long time

-Fernando Alonso taking a page out of Sainz’ book, using the DRS trick Sainz used in Singapore 2023

-Yuki Tsunoda finishing in the points for the first time at his home race

-Tsunoda’s future on the grid when Honda leaves Red Bull for Aston Martin in 2026

-That crash between Daniel Ricciardo & Alex Albon

-The heaping mess Williams is in now that they’ve had to ship another chassis back to the U.K. for repairs

-Mercedes’ failed one-stop gamble

-And how we did in our Japanese Grand Prix predictions

Japanese Grand Prix Predictions: It’s Springtime…In Suzuka?

Thu, 04 Apr 2024 08:00:00 -0400

Formula 1 is back in action in…Suzuka? In April?

Thanks to F1’s environmental efforts to regionalize the schedule, we are racing in Suzuka in the spring, rather than the fall for the first time ever.

And Kathryn and Emily are having some trouble wrapping our minds around it.

In this predictions episode, we also discuss:

-Susie Wolff’s litigation against the FIA for it’s farce of an investigation in December of 2023

-How reporters need to be better at referring to women in motorsport, because Susie Wolff is way more than just “F1 Boss’ Wife”

-The red flags on McLaren's David Sanchez leaving the team after only 3 months

-How underwhelmed we are by the new McLaren livery for Suzuka

-But on the flip side, Lando Norris’ epic special helmet for this weekend’s race

-Our thoughts on Sebastian Vettel’s potential return to the grid

-Why RB’s decision to run rookie Ayumu Iwasa in Japan is both really cool and really smart for Daniel Ricciardo’s racing career

-Our concerns about Williams’ lack of a spare chassis going into this weekend and the upcoming race in China

-Our pole, podium and P10 predictions

-And more!

Australian Grand Prix Recap: Sainz Wins Sans Appendix (Abdominal Surgery Whomst?)

Mon, 25 Mar 2024 08:00:00 -0400

We asked for chaos and the 2024 Australian Grand Prix delivered!

16 days after getting his appendix removed in Saudi Arabia, Carlos Sainz came storming back to win the third race of his career and put him right back on the radar of every team who’s going to need a new driver in 2025 (and maybe a few who didn’t).

Kathryn & Emily also discuss:

-What happened to cause Max Verstappen’s first DNF since…Australia 2 years ago

-That awkward F1 record Lando Norris broke with his P3 finish

-If McLaren made the right call to allow him past teammate Oscar Piastri)

-What happened with Williams giving Logan Sargeant’s car to teammate Alex Albon, and how this could potentially continue to fall out in Japan and China

-Logan Sargeant’s future in F1

-George Russell’s last-lap crash and why we completely disagree with Fernando Alonso’s penalty

-The disappointments in this race, which were all things, rather than drivers

-Guenther Steiner’s surprise post-race appearance

-How excited we are for the next race in Japan

Australian Grand Prix Predictions: The Chaos Down Under?

Thu, 21 Mar 2024 08:00:00 -0400

After a blessedly quiet week off, we are ready to go racing down under!

The Australian Grand Prix is one of our favorite races, and also one of the most chaotic (see: 2023’s EIGHT DNFs).

While there wasn’t a lot of news over the last couple weeks, we did have an update on Felipe Massa’s Crashgate Litigation (spoiler: there’s litigation) and also a fun story about James Vowles from his Mercedes days re: the playbook on how Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg were allowed to interact with one another amongst their noted rivalry, and also some fun home helmet drops from Aussies Daniel Ricciardo and Oscar Piastri.

As always, we share our predictions for Pole, Podium and P10 in the race. Will this be the week that Emily catches up with Kathryn, who leads 10-2? Only time (and the results of Carlos Sainz’ med tests) will tell.

The 2024 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix was a wild weekend, and we’re going to talk about it all!

-The Saga of Carlos’ Appendix

In an episode that is more F1 Has-A-Lot-Going-On-Off-Track-Right-Now than it is Saudi Arabia GP Predictions, Kathryn & Emily discuss:

-Why people have to take any and all Jos Verstappen statements with a massive grain of salt

-Why Max Verstappen going to Mercedes would destroy his career

-And why Lewis Hamilton’s move to Ferrari is nothing like a potential Verstappen move to Mercedes

-Why the FIA president is in trouble this time

-FINALLY an update on the proposed, purpose built circuit in Saudi Arabia, which we’ll see in…2027?

-A couple notes on the future of the F1 calendar in light of a potential return of the Turkish Grand Prix

2024 F1 Academy Season Preview

Tue, 05 Mar 2024 08:00:00 -0400

The F1 Academy is back for the 2024 season, kicking off in Saudi Arabia.

And this year, the ties to F1 are closer than ever, with each of the 10 teams sponsoring a driver and placing their livery on the F1 Academy grid, along with additional sponsorship from the likes of Charlotte Tilbury, Puma and Tommy Hilfiger.

In today’s episode, we discuss our thoughts on the non-F1 sponsorships, who’s who on each team, and what we can expect out of the new wildcard entries, meant to showcase local racing talent.

Bahrain GP Reaction: So What Does It Mean To Be An “F***ing Helmet”?

Mon, 04 Mar 2024 08:00:00 -0400

F1 is back and Max Verstappen is better than ever, beating the field by 22 seconds in Bahrain.

It could very well be a long season.

While the first race of the year isn’t indicative of how all 10 teams are going to perform this season, but we have some pretty big concerns about Alpine, especially in light of the resignations of their Technical Director and Head of Aerodynamics.

But on the other hand, Haas kind of impressed? As in they weren’t as completely disastrous as expected.

And behind the Red Bulls, we’re going to be in for some great battles this season, especially between soon-to-be-former teammates Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc.

What was your highlight from the Bahrain Grand Prix? Who impressed? Who disappointed? Share in the comments.

Come Bahrain Or Shine, The 2024 Season Is Here (Race 1 Predictions)

Thu, 29 Feb 2024 05:00:00 -0400

After months of waiting, it’s time for Round 1 of 2024 in Bahrain!

We discussed a little bit of news of the week, including a long-awaited Christian Horner update from Red Bull that…didn’t really say much, a reminder that Lewis Hamilton is leaving Mercedes at the end of the year, and some thoughts on last week’s testing.

Remember, testing doesn’t actually mean anything, so this weekend’s race will be a real indicator of where the cars stack up against one another.

Behind Max Verstappen, of course.

1,001 Opinions On Netflix’s Drive To Survive Season 6

Mon, 26 Feb 2024 08:00:00 -0400

Drive to Survive: Live On Netflix, Binge-Watched By Kathryn And Emily.

And we have THOUGHTS.

We discussed:

-The mixed reaction to Danica Patrick’s commentary

-The emotional impact on Mercedes’ episode on the relationship between Lewis Hamilton and Team Principal Toto Wolff (which aged juuuuust a bid badly in light of Lewis’ move to Ferrari, announced just weeks before the DTS cut went in the can)

-The shocking lack of coverage of ANYTHING related to Red Bull, specifically Max Verstappen

-How much Alpine was too much? This much.

-The in depth coverage of the merry-go-round of drivers at AlphaTauri and the drama (or lack thereof) in the decision to keep Daniel Ricciardo & Yuki Tsunoda for 2024.

-James Vowels talking about the impact on caffeine on the body

And much more.

Our (Probably Wrong) 2024 F1 Season Predictions

Thu, 22 Feb 2024 08:00:00 -0400

It’s time to make some guesses about what’s going to happen during the 2024 F1 season!

And we’re probably going to be wrong!

Well, not about our picks for Driver and Constructor’s champion. We’re pretty confident those picks will shake out by the time we get to Abu Dhabi.

We also picked our:

-Driver’s Championship Podium

-Constructor’s Championship Podium

-Biggest Surprise - Team

-Biggest Disappointment - Team

-Biggest Surprise - Driver

-Biggest Disappointment - Driver

-Best Race of 2024

-Worst Race of 2024

We also have some thoughts on some rules changes that will be implemented this season, and have details on the Inaugural Kathryn vs. Emily Pole/Podium/P10 Pick’ Em Challenge.

Let’s talk liveries!

Now that all the 2024 cars have been revealed, Kathryn and Emily are going to unload on our thoughts and opinions about them.

And we, as always, have plenty.

Some teams played it SUPER safe, while others made some, shall we say, bold choices.

Emily graded them on a scale from A to F, while Kathryn ranked them from 1 to 5.

We crowned our Livery of the Year, along with our Carbon Fibre Nightmare Of The Year, and also talk about the fun new helmets the drivers will be wearing this season.

What We Want To See on Netflix’s Drive To Survive Season 6

Mon, 12 Feb 2024 08:00:00 -0400

We are just days away from the release of the sixth season of Netflix’s Drive to Survive, and we have a LONG wish list.

Will we see coverage of Emily’s favorite moment of 2023: Sergio Perez’s Double DNF in Suzuka?

Will Carlos Sainz get the recognition he deserves?

Just HOW much of this coverage will be dedicated to the merry-go-round of drivers through that second AlphaTauri seat?

Will the Vegas coverage be shined up to hide what an actual mess it was outside the race itself?

How much entertainment will we get in hindsight of the coverage of Lewis Hamilton signing an extension with Mercedes in light of what we know now of his future with Ferrari?

Did they have time to sneak in Guenther Steiner’s departure from Haas before the show went in the can?

So many questions, so many moments that make up the 2023 season.

Now, Drive to Survive will never be able to truly encompass what it’s like to live through Formula 1 week in and week out, but it’s still pretty damn good.

That Time Lewis Hamilton Woke Up And Chose Violence (Winter Break News Roundup #3)

Tue, 06 Feb 2024 08:00:00 -0400

Anything newsworthy happen in Formula 1 last week?

Oh right, yes.

Not only did Lewis Hamilton drop a bomb on his Mercedes team (and the world of sports as a whole) by announcing his move to Ferrari on football deadline day, but we also got the news that the FOM (stupidly) decided to deny the Andretti bid to become the 11th Formula 1 team.

And yes, Kathryn and Emily have THOUGHTS about it all.

We also spend time speculating on:

-What’s going to happen Carlos Sainz

-Who could fill that open Mercedes race seat

-And of course, our thoughts on how much the 2024 sprint format changes are going to suck.

Have we mentioned lately that we’re not fans of the F1 sprint? Well, it doesn’t look like it’s going to get any better this season.

The Episode Formerly Known As The F1 Winter Break News Roundup #2

Mon, 29 Jan 2024 08:00:00 -0400

It can’t be Silly Season already, can it?

Well, no, it’s not, because no one is surprised at the recently announced contract extensions for McLaren’s Lando Norris and Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc.

Hell, it’s not even the end of Lando’s contract, but McLaren boss Zak Brown and Team Principal Andrea Stella wouldn’t want to risk him running off to other, energy-drink themed pastures. Or Italy.

Kathryn and Emily also discuss:

-The messy AlphaTauri rebrand to Visa Cash App RB F1 Team (what IS it with mouthful team names? Okay, we do know what it is, but that’s not the point)

-The announcement of the 2026 addition of Madrid to the F1 calendar and the fate of the GP in Barcelona

-Plus rumors of another GP in the United States in the Windy City and our opinion on how to improve the F1 calendar as a whole

-An update on the Brad Pitt/Apple+ Formula 1 movie

-And our plans for the upcoming Drive To Survive release

F101: Kathryn Watched The Entire 2016 Formula 1 Season

Wed, 24 Jan 2024 08:00:00 -0400

Yes, Kathryn really did watch every race of the 2016 Formula 1 season, so you don’t have to.

Why?

Why not?

But really, because there are so many times Kathryn and Emily can hear Nico Rosberg talk about beating Lewis Hamilton in 2016 in equal machinery before Kathryn decides she has to go and figure out the context behind it all.

Kathryn and Emily look back at a season featuring

-Some races at tracks we haven’t seen in a while

-A bunch more familiar faces in the 11 drivers currently on the grid

-The thrilling, back and forth battle between Hamilton and Rosberg

-The undisputed best podium of the year at a fan favorite track

-Some notable cameos (including the wife of one of our favorite Team Principals)

Emily also made Kathryn pick out her Top-3 Must Watch races of the year, along with 3 more of Kathryn’s personal favorites.

And, because she just couldn’t resist, one honorable mention race that you really just need to watch for the first 15 or so minutes, which ultimately led to the current dominance of Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.

Guenther's Gone?! (F1 Winter Break News Roundup #1)

Tue, 16 Jan 2024 08:00:00 -0400

In our first recorded episode of 2024, it’s time to dive into all the news we missed over the winter break.

And to think we were worried we weren’t going to have anything to talk about other than the failed Alfa Romeo new title sponsor roll-out.

But then, team owner Gene Haas made the call to fire Team Principal and fan favorite Guenther Steiner.

Kathryn and Emily share their thoughts on that decision, if it’s actually going to help or hurt, and if new Team Principal Ayao Komatsu is going to have any chance of success this year.

We also discuss:

-Yeah, Alfa Romeo turned Stake F1 Team and the media gold from that flubbed rollout

-Susie & Toto Wolff vs. The FIA

-Some early contract rumors

-A new FIA sporting code regulation that we do NOT like (and Yuki Tsunoda won’t either)

-Updates on the announced livery reveal dates

-And more

F101: What Happened At The 2005 United States Grand Prix?

Mon, 08 Jan 2024 08:00:00 -0400

The offseason winter break continues, but Going Off Track is back from our holiday break with a brand new episode!

In this episode of our F101 series, Kathryn and Emily discuss the 2005 United States Grand Prix, which was one of the most ridiculous races in Formula One history. The race was marred by tire failures and safety concerns, leading to the withdrawal of 14 cars from the race, causing outrage among fans and teams. We also discuss the legal implications and the impact of the race on Formula One in the United States since 2005.

If you’re bored and missing F1, this is definitely a race to check out while we wait for the 2024 liveries to drop.

F101: We Watched The Brawn GP Documentary & You Should Too

Mon, 18 Dec 2023 08:00:00 -0400

In our winter finale, Kathryn and Emily discuss the Brawn GP Documentary on Hulu, which tells the unlikely story of the Brawn Formula One team's incredible journey to success in the 2009 season.

They explore the origins of the team, the challenges they faced during the global financial crisis, and the formation of the Formula One Teams Association (FOTA) to protect their interests amidst the power struggle with the FIA, Max Mosley and Bernie Ecclestone.

They highlight the mental game and pressure faced by driver Jensen Button, as well as the role of Rubens Barrichello as the number two driver.

And lastly, Kathryn and Emily are going on winter break for the holiday season. We’ll be back with new episodes on Monday, January 8, 2024. Join us on Instagram at @Going.Off.Track for updates and news from the grid while we count down the days to the 2024 season.

Mon, 13 Nov 2023 08:00:00 -0400

It’s been a few months since Guenther Steiner’s 2022 season tell-all book, Surviving To Drive, was published, but Kathryn and Emily have finally had a chance to sit down and talk about how much we loved this book.

And why you should read it too. Or, if you’re an audiobook listener like Emily, listen to it too.

How Haas is a team that by all rights, should not exist
Guenther Steiner vs. The German Media
Steiner’s rivalry with one of the 2022 team principals that we never saw coming
His decades-long history with Formula 1 and motorsport
His heartwarming friendship with F1 great Niki Lauda
And yeah, the Mazepin thing, too

United Stated Grand Prix Recap: Spotlight On The Skids

Mon, 23 Oct 2023 17:45:00 -0400

The sprint was disappointing, the race was pretty standard, but the aftermath at the 2023 United States Grand Prix 🇺🇸 was something else.

Sure, Red Bull’s Max Verstappen did Max things and became just the fifth F1 driver to win 5️⃣0️⃣ career races—and the second fastest to do so behind Michael Shumacher, but Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc stole the show.

For all the wrong reasons.

In this recap reaction, Kathryn and Emily dive deep into

🧱 What the heck is a skid block and how it led to Lewis and Charles disqualifications

🇲🇽🇺🇸 How embattled Red Bull driver Sergio Perez and Williams rookie Logan Sargent benefited the most out of the weekend

⛑️Our favorite of the eight custom helmets debuted this weekend

🙄How much we STILL hate the sprint weekend

💯How Emily absolutely nailed her Sunday podium prediction

5 sprint races down, 1 to go, thank goodness.

Kathryn and Emily were waiting on it for months, and the Japanese Grand Prix 🇯🇵 did not disappoint.

Through our exhaustion as Emily traveled almost 10,000 miles in two days and Kathryn had her family in town for her sister’s wedding, we recapped the race at Suzuka, broke down just how wild it was that Red Bull technically had BOTH a double DNF and a race winner, which led them to clinching their second straight World Constructor’s championship.

Singapore GP Recap: ¿Dónde Esta Los Red Bulls? Sainz Ends The Streak!

Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:00:00 -0400

Welcome to the Singapore Grand Prix recap!

Join Kathryn and Emily as we talk about one of the most exciting races of the 2023 season so far, one that saw the end of Max Verstappen and Red Bull’s respective win streaks, and also saw Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz win the second race of his career.

It’s been 308 days since a non-Red Bull driver stood on the top step of the podium, but that by no means made it a cake walk for the Spainiard.

In the recap, we’ll also discuss:

How Sainz and McLaren’s Lando Norris teamed up and brought their bromance onto the track to hold off the Mercedes in pursuit behind them
George Russell’s heartbreaking crash during the final lap of the race
How Yuki Tsunoda’s lap-1 exit and Liam Lawson’s point scoring feat (the first for a rookie in the history of the Singapore GP) means that it is by no means clear who will be driving in the AlphaTauri seats in 2024
Just how well Kathryn and Emily’s prediction efforts went (spoiler alert: it’s didn’t go well)
And more!

Thu, 14 Sep 2023 09:00:00 -0400

The news of the week, including the renewed rumors that Zhou Guanyu is expected to re-sign with Alfa Romeo in 2024, McLaren’s new Stealth Livery, and that thing Helmut Marko said about Sergio Perez.

Listen in for our Podium/Pole/P-10 predictions, Emily’s speculation on driverless F1 cars, and Kathryn’s inability to survive in humidity, but she’ll go to Singapore to watch the GP in person anyway.

From The DMs #1: Is Max Verstappen & Red Bull’s Dominance Damaging Formula 1?

Thu, 07 Sep 2023 09:00:00 -0400

Welcome to another new series from the Going Off Track podcast, From The DMs📲

Kathryn and Emily started sharing their obsessed with Formula 1 in their Instagram DMs, and that is still the primary way we communicate. Like, we don’t even text.

In this series, we’re going to have some unstructured conversations about the hot topics surrounding the sport, and our opinions on them as new, American🇺🇸 F1 fans whose perspective on sports is a wonky because of our previous professional careers working in college athletics.

To start off, probably the 🔥hottest of hot topics at the moment: Is 🟠Max Verstappen and 🔵Red Bull’s dominance running Formula 1?

A complicated question with an equally complicated answer.

Italian Grand Prix Predictions: Monza Curse or Records Broken?

Thu, 31 Aug 2023 09:00:00 -0400

We are back in action this weekend for the Italian Grand Prix at the Temple of Speed and Going Off Track is back with our predictions for the race at Monza.

Will Max Verstappen fall victim to the Monza curse or will he break Sebastian Vettel’s record and win his 10th consecutive race?

We also get to look forward to:

Liam Lawson back on track in the AlphaTauri for the still-injured Daniel Ricciardo

Not one but two cars, Ferrari and Alfa Romeo, debuting new liveries at Monza

Another young driver appearance, this time Felipe Drugovich driving for Aston Martin in FP1

And potentially, a rain-free race weekend for the first time since Baku in April

Join Kathryn and Emily for our Podium, Pole and P-10 predictions, along with what we look forward to as our biggest surprises, and who we think is going to do a dumb this time.

Mon, 28 Aug 2023 09:00:00 -0400

F1 is BACK from the summer break and boy did the Dutch Grand Prix deliver.

The GP was wet, it was wild, and yeah, because it was in the Netherlands, there were waffles.

Kathryn and Emily broke down just how badly their predictions were torpedoed, how our podium finishers did their thing in spite of the weather-induced chaos, and some opinions we have about some interesting driver contract rumors we heard throughout the week.

Kathryn also breaks down the other news that did come out during the break: former F1 driver Felipe Massa's impending lawsuits against F1 and the FIA for their part in 2008's Crashgate.

Red Flag Rundown #1: Danny Ric is BACK!

Mon, 24 Jul 2023 16:40:00 -0400

Originally published on July 13, 2023:

F1 Silly Season got an early start...

So, we weren't originally supposed to record until after the summer break, but then AlphaTauri just had to go and replace Nyck de Vries with Daniel Ricciardo, which Emily found out about while in the middle of a work meeting and Kathryn was camping on the beach. To say the least, we have some THOUGHTS.
