Brace yourself for some soggy shenanigans – The Monkey Seat is back, broadcasting straight from the metaphorical pit lane of poor life choices!This week, Tom and Karl tackle the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps, where the weather is as unpredictable as Karl’s connection to reality, and the race strategies made about as much sense as Tom’s fantasy team. Was it wet? Was it dry? Was it worth staying awake for? Who knows – but the boys have opinions on it, and they definitely don't line up!They’re slinging out their Driver of the Day awards with all the grace of a Sauber pit stop on a budget airline, and someone definitely gets slapped with the Dick of the Day title – a time-honoured tradition that’s just as prestigious as it sounds (which is to say… not at all).Expect off-topic tangents, and an accidental deep dive into Spa’s many mishaps – both literal and metaphorical. As always, it’s less "analytical insight" and more "two guys bickering in surround sound."Looking for actual F1 journalism? Head over to Grid Talk. But if you want bad predictions, bold opinions, and banter with more corners than a Carsten Tilke street track, you’re in the right place.For the “slightly more serious” versions of these two, catch them on the Grid Talk Podcast @gridtalkuk on all your favourite socials.Check out f1chronicle.com for motorsport articles written by people who use punctuation, and hit linktr.ee/gridtalkuk for the full Grid Talk experience.Find The Monkey Seat on Spotify, Apple Music, Pocket Casts, YouTube, Anchor, Castbox, Radio Public, TuneIn, Breaker — or just scream into the Ardennes mist and we’ll find you.
