Episode 111: Yuki Tsunoda Defense Squad + Australian GP Recap

History was made this week when, for the first time ever, Chinese F1 fans had a driver from their country to cheer for. Zhou Guanyu became the first Chinese driver in F1 history, and the first to call the Chinese Grand Prix his home race. And guess what? We absolutely loved it. After recapping the rest of the Chinese Grand Prix, Kate and Nicole discuss other big news in the sport, including Mick Schumacher's potential next move, an alleged new points system coming as soon as 2025, and the grand opening of the United States' first F1 Arcade. Other topics covered: silly season, Pierre's hair (both head and facial), Helmut "Chatty Cathy" Marko, the perfect end to the Taylor Swift x Fernando Alonso era, and an F1 Academy update.

It was a difficult week to be a female Formula 1 fan. Disappointing comments from drivers overshadowed International Women's Day, and truthfully, it took some time to prepare for this week's episode and come to terms with the sport we all love. But, as always, we're keeping it real and combining the hard conversations that need to be had with the fun, lighthearted discussions we love. We've all worked too hard to make a space in the F1 fandom for ourselves to let them keep us down. F1 Fangirls forever! See you on the internet!
