Episode Notes

Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli bagged his second consecutive victory in the Japanese Grand Prix. But was McLaren's Oscar Piastri robbed by the intervention of the safety car, and how serious are the implications of the Ollie Bearman/Franco Colapinto crash that proved to be the big talking point at Suzuka?


Edd Straw is joined, from Suzuka, by Jon Noble and Scott Mitchell-Malm to discuss those questions and all of the important storylines from Japan.
