They also get stuck into ‘silly season’ and have their say on Cadillac’s driver choice for 2026. Plus, where is Christian Horner going?

Bec and Ben are back after a few weeks away - and what a race to feature. The São Paulo GP had the lot - and virtually killed off Lando Norris’ title hopes. There is plenty to discuss from Verstappen’s brilliance, what happens to McLaren now? And does Sergio Perez have a place on the grid for 2025 - or not. There’s loads more, including the odd swear word, so some community service/fine (delete as applicable) will be on the way!
