Show notes

On this week's episode of The Race F1 Tech Show, Edd Straw and Gary Anderson discuss what it really means when certain drivers are described as having 'good technical knowledge' or 'excellent feedback'.


Before that, Gary shares his thoughts on a range of topics, including his latest thinking on improving overtaking in F1, Mercedes' potential pace in Las Vegas, and how he would have taken Ferrari chairman John Elkan's recent 'talk less' comments if he was an engineer at the team.


The episode concludes with our regular questions section, where Gary answers questions on flags, F1's future, and the loss of the MGU-H.
