Episode Notes

The start of the season is just around the corner! So with the final testing complete - who's on top and who's got work to do?

Lots of testing is smoke and mirrors, but have Ferrari and Lewis Hamilton played a blinder with their fancy starts and new wing? How are Aston Martin so slow after hiring the best car designer F1 has ever seen, Adrian Newey? And have Mercedes found a loophole that could turn the title fight upside down?

Plus, what's an F1 drivers' cheat meal? What do they eat on race day? We answer a question from Michelin-starred chef Gordon Ramsay.
