The race at Silverstone started with a bang as Max Verstappen went crashing out of the race after colliding with Lewis Hamilton, and that incident is the first thing that the PF1 team discuss. Did Hamilton deserve his penalty? Should he have had a harsher one? Or was it a racing incident?
Regardless, it was an excellent drive from Hamilton from that point onwards, and one that well and truly...

It was Max Verstappen's most dominant performance of the season as he took his third win in four races, which left Mercedes scratching their heads as to how they can claw back the gap Red Bull have created at the front.

Torquing Point39: S2: The 2021 French Grand PrixA real anomaly is discussed in the latest episode of Torquing Point; an absolute thriller of a French Grand Prix.There are a number of things that made it so good, but the main one was the titanic battle at the front between Mercedes and Red Bull.In a reverse of Barcelona, it was Max Verstappen's team that won the race thanks to a two-stop strategy this time around, but the Dutchman still had a lot of work to do. He drove a near-perfect race, as did Lewis Hamilton, and Finley and Henery applaud them both.

Torquing Point38: S2: The 2021 Azerbaijan Grand PrixAs far as races go, few require more discussion than those that take place in Baku, and that was the case again this year.As usual, Finley and Henry start off the latest episode of Torquing Point by taking a look at the fight at the front between Red Bull and Mercedes. For the first time this year, Sergio Perez got himself right in the mix of it, and while it was issues for his rivals that handed him the win, he drove well enough to deserve it, holding his own against Lewis Hamilton all day. Given how good he l...

Torquing Point37: S2: The 2021 Monaco Grand PrixGiven that there was next to no on-track action at the Monaco Grand Prix, there's a remarkable amount of stuff from it that needs discussing. For instance, Max Verstappen is suddenly now leading the Drivers' Championship for the first time ever, while Red Bull are ahead of Mercedes in the Constructors' Championship. How did that happen?Finley and Henry start off by looking at just that, paying tribute to two excellent drives from Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez, wondering why the real Lewis Hamilton never showed up and paying sympathies to poor old Valtteri Bottas.For the first time this y...

Torquing Point36: S2: The 2021 Spanish Grand PrixMuch to the delight of the Torquing Point team, the Spanish Grand Prix actually produced an entertaining race for a change.That was mainly due to the fight at the front as we were treated to round four of the Lewis Hamilton vs Max Verstappen show. Finley and Henry kick things off by looking at how the Brit ultimately prevailed. It may have been his team's excellent strategy call that was the main reason that he won, but that takes nothing away from his drive, with the Mercedes man barely putting a foot wrong all race. Is there any stopping h...

Torquing Point35: S2: The Portuguese Grand PrixIt may have turned out to be a bit of a dull affair, but the Portuguese Grand Prix still threw up a number of conversation topics.As has been the case all season. the biggest of them came at the front of the grid, with Lewis Hamilton prevailing in a battle with Valtteri Bottas and Max Verstappen to take victory.Finley and Michelle start off by looking at that battle, discussing whether Mercedes had a quicker car than Red Bull and worrying that, even though it's just an eight-point gap, Hamilton may start to run away with the title, especially...

Torquing Point34: S2: The Emilia Romagna Grand PrixWith rain, Red Flags and rivals clashing, The Emilia Romagna Grand Prix left Torquing Point with no shortage of talking points.Henry Valantine joins Finley to discuss the race, and the pair start off with the fight at the front between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton. Unlike in Bahrain, the Dutchman prevailed this time around, putting in the perfect drive to storm to victory. He'll take a lot of confidence from that, but asides from his costly mistake, Hamilton still looked pretty handy himself. Can the Red Bull man really challenge him over the course of a season? Judging by t...

Torquing Point33: S2: The 2021 Bahrain Grand PrixFormula 1 is back, and Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen and the rest of the grid left Torquing Point with plenty of talking points.So often last season, there was little to say about Hamilton's wins such was his dominance, but that certainly wasn't the case at the Bahrain Grand Prix. Given how thrilling his fight with Verstappen was, it's the only place to start. Finley and Michelle analyse the battle between the two and how and why the Mercedes man ultimately prevailed. He may have done so this time, but did the Dutchman and Red Bull show that they're ready to c...

Red Bull looked stronger than Mercedes in pre-season testing and have their best lineup in years; can they finally take the fight to the German team? What's more, can Max Verstappen challenge...

Torquing Point31: S1: The 2020 Season ReviewThe first season of Torquing Point is brought to an end with a review of the rollercoaster that was Formula 1's 2020 campaign. Joining Finley for it is Alex Mclachlan, and the pair kick things off at the top of the standings, discussing Lewis Hamilton. Where do his achievements in 2020 rank amongst his many others? And just how much more can he achieve before he calls it a day?They then take a look at the other drivers in the top two teams, debating whether Valtteri Bottas is good enough for Mercedes, applauding Max Verstappen for his excellent season and analysing w...

Torquing Point30: S1: The 2020 Abu Dhabi Grand PrixIt wasn't the best finale, but thankfully for Torquing Point, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix served as an ending to far more, than just the season.If that wasn't the case, it would have been difficult to do an episode lasting more than five minutes considering how dull the race was. Given that, Finley and Michelle can't help but despair over the fact that it's on the calendar at all, let alone as the final race.After doing so, they then discuss the race-winner, Max Verstappen. It may not have been as exciting or dramatic as some of his other...

Torquing Point29: The 2020 Sakhir Grand PrixVarious 2020 races have left the PF1 team with plenty to discuss, but perhaps none more so than the Sakhir Grand Prix.The fact that Sergio Perez winning it arguably wasn't the biggest talking point says it all. Nevertheless, the episode kicks off with a look at his remarkable triumph. Luck did undoubtedly play a large role in it, but given how he fought his way up the order after falling to last place at the end of the first lap, it was a stunning performance regardless, and one worthy of a win. Was it enough to finally convince Red Bull to...

Torquing Point28: S1: The 2020 Bahrain Grand PrixThe biggest talking point of the Bahrain Grand Prix came on Lap 1 as the race became a mere after-thought to Romain Grosjean's crash.Given this, the latest episode of Torquing Point focuses on the incident, looking at how it impacts the sport and what it says about the safety standards.Finley and Michelle start off by recalling what their first impressions were when the huge explosion was seen in the background of the television coverage.The only thing more shocking than the incident itself was the fact that the Frenchman managed to emerge from the flames largely unscathed, and the...

Torquing Point27: S1: The 2020 Turkish Grand PrixLewis Hamilton stole the show at the Turkish Grand Prix, but his brilliance isn't the only thing from the race that needs discussing.Istanbul Park has always been a popular circuit, so excitement was high ahead of its long-awaited return to the sport. Finley and Michelle discuss the latest episode of Torquing Point by discussing whether it lived up to expectations, and why it was so challenging for drivers. They then move on to undoubtedly the biggest story of the weekend, Lewis Hamilton, as the Brit equalled Michael Schumacher's record tally of seven World Championships in some style with a s...

Torquing Point26: S1: The 2020 Emilia-Romagna Grand PrixThere's much to discuss following an Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix that featured plenty of triumphs, and a few disasters.As has so often been the case in 2020, one of those to triumph was Lewis Hamilton who, with a dose of luck, won yet again. Finley and Michelle kick things off by pondering whether he would he have done so without said luck.His win and Valtteri Bottas's P2 finish were enough to seal Mercedes' seventh straight Constructors' Championship. Are they the most dominant force in the history of F1? Is such dominance good for the sport? And will it continue when...

Torquing Point25: S1: The 2020 Portuguese Grand PrixPortimao's first Formula 1 race was a good one, and it threw up plenty of talking points for the latest episode of Torquing Point.The biggest of them is, once again, Lewis Hamilton. The Mercedes driver is now officially the most prolific race-winner in the history of the sport, and win number 92 was once of his best yet. With a dominant car for at least another year and no signs of slowing down, just how many victories will he have to his name when he eventually retires?For the first time this season, Finley and Michelle then discuss what was, in...

Torquing Point24: S1: The 2020 Eifel Grand PrixThe latest episode of Torquing Point is all about the Eifel Grand Prix, a race that will live long in the memory for many.That's undoubtedly the case for Lewis Hamilton, who won at the Nurburgring to match Michael Schumacher's record tally of 91 victories. Finley and Michelle get things started by reflecting on how big of an achievement this is, how he compares to the German and by having the inevitable GOAT discussion. The race in Germany was also a memorable one for Daniel Ricciardo, who finally returned to the podium for the first time since 2018. He now has five c...

Torquing Point23: S1 E21: The 2020 Russian Grand PrixAfter two ridiculous races, the Russian Grand Prix was a return to reality for both Formula 1 and the Torquing point team.Arguably the most important moment of the race came before it even started, as Lewis Hamilton ended up being handed a 10-second time penalty for practising a start outside the designated area. Finley and Michelle get things started by wondering how the Brit and his team made such a rookie error and discussing his far from ideal reaction to the decision. Hamilton loss was Valtteri Bottas's gain, and the Finn returned to the top step of the podium for t...

We did our best...After a messy first corner of the Tuscan Grand Prix, the chaos reached another level nine laps later. Finley and Michelle kick things off by taking a look at the Safety Car restart that led to a huge incident, debating who, if anyone, was the blame for the pile-up that took out four cars.The incident brought out the first of two Red Flags for the race, and with so many...

Torquing Point21: S1 E19: The 2020 Italian Grand PrixAfter becoming somewhat stale, the 2020 season burst into life with an incredible Italian Grand Prix, and the PF1 team couldn't be happier.When discussing the race, the only place to start is with Pierre Gasly. Given the year he's had, he's fast becoming one of the sport's greatest stories and best drivers.Did he just get lucky? What does the triumph mean for his career? Is a Red Bull return on the cards? One thing is certain - if he keeps driving like he is, the grid is his oyster.While Carlos Sainz may have been gutted to miss out...

Torquing Point20: S1 E18: The 2020 Belgian Grand PrixSunday's race may not have been the best that Spa has produced, but there's still plenty of talking points for the PF1 team to discuss.Finley and Michelle get the ball rolling by once again applauding the efforts of Lewis Hamilton. However, while he's set to break record after record, his team-mate Valtteri Bottas can't get anywhere near him. Given how things are going for Mercedes though, do they really care?The same question can be posed to Red Bull. Alex Albon finished the race in P6, over 25 seconds behind Max Verstappen, but he wasn't helped by the strategy he...

Torquing Point19: S1 E17: The 2020 Spanish Grand PrixThe Spanish Grand Prix wasn't exactly eventful, but there's still plenty for the PF1 team to dig their teeth into in the latest episode of Torquing Point.They kick things off with a look at the fight at the front. Lewis Hamilton cruised to victory and seems to comfortably have the upper hand over Valtteri Bottas. Is this due to the Brit's brilliance? Or is the Finn floundering?Max Verstappen split the Mercedes pair in the race and is now comfortably doing so in the Championship. Finley and Michelle discuss how far off the German team Red Bull are and...

Torquing Point18: S1 E16: The 70th Anniversary Grand PrixFor the first time this year, we have a non-Mercedes victor. How and why did it happen? Finley and Michelle kick off the latest episode of Torquing Point by discussing just that. Max Verstappen may have won because of strategy rather than superior pace, but with hotter temperatures set to stick around for the next few races, could he put together a title challenge?Behind the Dutchman and the Mercedes drivers was the Ferrari of Charles Leclerc. The pair discuss his excellent start to the season, in which he has dragged his team to P3 in the standings, and wonder w...

Torquing Point17: S1 E17: The 2020 British Grand PrixIn the latest episode of Torquing Point, the team discuss all of the best bits from the British Grand Prix. So basically, the last few laps...It wasn't the most interesting race for the most part, but it came to life with the death of Pirelli's tyres. Finley and Michelle get started by reliving the late carnage, applauding Lewis Hamilton for surviving the final lap with three wheels and wondering if Max Verstappen should have stayed out. Next up is a look at the title "fight. Hamilton's win put him 30 points clear in the Driver's Championship after just four races. C...

His win was one of the sport's best drives in recent times and moved him to the top of the Driver's Championship for the first time this year.When he's driving that well, it's hard to see him losing it before the end of the season. Are we on the verge of seeing him become, on paper at least...

He may not have been at his best last week, but when he is, it's hard to imagine Valtteri Bottas being able to beat him.The Finn is the only man in a car capable of challenging the Brit, and that's largely due to the complete mess at Ferrari. Things went from bad to...

Torquing Point14: S1 E14: FINALLY! The 2020 Austrian Grand PrixAfter many months of waiting and many episodes of build-up, F1 is finally back on track, and it returned in style.The Austrian Grand Prix was the best season opener in quite some time, and Finley and Michelle begin their analysis of it at the front. Is Bottas 3.0 the version to finally challenge Hamilton? And was the Brit unfairly penalised for his collision with Albon? One thing's certain, Mercedes is, quite emphatically, the team to beat.Things behind them are far less clear. To say Ferrari is in crisis is an understatement and, sadly, Sebastian Vettel, back to his old...

Some have done unlimited testing in their 2018 cars, while others have embarked on far more restrictive filming days with their 2020 challengers. Which approach is better, and will either help the teams and drivers much? They then discuss what has and hasn't changed since the season's original start date in March.

They then go through the schedule, discuss the doubleheaders and ponder how the revised structure may affect the title fight.

Prior to that, however, the French team had the upper hand, which begs the question, is it more of a sideways step?
