Superlicense F1 Podcast -- Covering Every Formula 1 Race

Verstappen claims his 3rd Drivers' Championship, but Qatar delivered a new race winner, drivers bailing out under gruelling conditions, teammates have been clashing and we unpack the effects of a grid shakeup in the Superquiz. 

Do we care about Verstappen's 10 race winning streak? What's the real reason Mercedes were so salty about it? And things turn a little Ocean's 14 in the Superquiz. 

Come on a Martin Brundle trundle down the main straight as we rate, rank and review the performance of each team on the grid. Disagree with our takes? Let us know and we'll promise to try harder next time. 

As Daniel Riccardo's return dominates F1 headlines, we reacquaint ourselves with the grid's 2nd Australian driver, review the fortunes of F1 teams in recent times, and we walk the red carpet in a stat-studded Superquiz.

Can Red Bull sweep the season? Is a new tyre war on the horizon? Will Ricciardo's commentary stint be part of a return to F1, or another step away from it?  And is it a brand new day for the Superquiz... 

Come one, come all to the social event of the season! Nothing makes you feel older quite like wrapping up a cool decade of your niche podcast. We wind back the clock for some formative impressions before winding the clock forward again and sinking our proverbial teeth into the issues of the day.

We shake off the Spring-break cobwebs to reflect on the horrorshow that was Melbourne, deliver a healthy reality-check for Mercedes' title expectations, and war-room Felipe Massa's 2008 tilt for the championship. 

Will 2023 be another Verstappen landslide? Just how low is the cope at Mercedes? And how can the Ferrari boys follow-through on their fast starts?

Your spotters guide to F1 liveries, teammate rivalries and predictions for the season ahead.

Well, well, well, look who has come crawling back. (It's us.) They said it couldn't, wouldn't and shouldn't be done, but we're covering two huge eps of Drive to Survive and to ensure those purple sectors we're kicking things into 1.5x.

Like the star atop a Christmas tree, such is our end of season celebration episode with old mates... Box of Neutrals! Hear which team principal dismissal perplexed us the most (at the time of recording) and we remind you all to stay hydrated, look after yourself and we'll catch you in 2023 

Perez vs Verstappen, who is right? The answer might surprise you. Like overtakes? Tyre suppliers hate this one weird secret. And it's a Black Friday buy-one-get-one free deal in the Superquiz.

Get the skinny on Red Bull's cost cap penalty, Hollywood's brush with F1, fixing the broken in-race penalty system and set a record time in our speed-run Superquiz. (Please don't suspend us, Elon.) 

Remember Yuki Tsunoda? Superlicense remembers. Without wanting to beat up on anybody, we realise just how "low stocks" F1's drivers get beyond the midfield, and question an over-used storytelling device. 

After a good 20 mins of football talk we get straight into the big issues, like should Red Bull be disqualified from the championship, we get acquainted with "Slick" de Vries in the Superquiz, and catch up on an old favourite of the show. 

Williams and George Russell are hungry for yummy, yummy points and with a painfully predictable story arc ahead of us the dam bursts on our stream of unconsciousness, soaking you - the unsuspecting listener - in our trademark luke-warm takes.

Ricciardo. Piastri. Spa. To a lesser extent the Dutch Grand Prix. We flirt with them all. AND Rod turns back time to the early days of twitter for the Superquiz, while we dial-in a new segment.

One episode, double trouble. We acknowledge the driver market craziness, and then tuck into a double helping of Drive to Survive, giving you plenty to think about as you vibe through the summer break. 

Standard "We recorded before the Piastri stuff" disclaimer. It's wall-to-wall Sebastian with the news of his impending departure dominating the superquiz, we breakdown the machinations up and down the field, and take the opportunity to (re)introduce ourselves. 

What a difference a month makes! We've done a 180 on Russell, Schumacher's done a 180 on his form, and Ricciardo has everyone in a spin. In the Superquiz this week Rod dusts off an ancient tome seeking wisdom, and we try to remember Bernie Eccelstone.
