We ask if Formula 1's racing guidelines need a rethink and evaluate Colton Herta's chances on his return to Europe in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.
Josh Suttill and Mark Hughes join Edd Straw to tackle those two big topics, starting with the question of whether F1 needs to take a different approach to penalties.
We also discuss Herta's test driver role with Cadillac and planned move to F2, with The Race IndyCar Podcast host Jack Benyon dropping in to tell us all about the IndyCar ace.
There's also another batch of listener questions on a range of topics from Carlos Sainz's struggles to F2 championship leader Leonardo Fornaroli's F1 hopes.
