Kicking things off in the iconic Ford RS200, Max and Chris dive into the evolution of driving styles, the role of relentless practice in Max’s rise to the top of F1, and the mindset it takes to stay there. Then it’s off to the track, where Max unleashes the all-new Ford Mustang GTD — a road-legal performance beast built to dominate.

– The upcoming 2026 F1 regulation changes
– Ford’s rich motorsport legacy
– And the excitement building as Ford prepares to return to the Formula 1 grid with Red Bull Racing in 2026
Formula One driver Carlos Sainz has always made bold choices, but none bolder than betting on Williams. In this episode, the F1 star opens up about turning down easier options to join a long-term project led by James Vowles, and why trust, people, and honesty mattered more than numbers or hype.
He also addresses the Red Bull rumours head-on, sharing his real thoughts on Max Verstappen, why he never made that call, and the reality of playing second fiddle in a team built around one superstar. It’s not bitterness, it’s clarity.
Beyond the politics and paddock talk, Carlos gets real about the personal price of chasing a championship: the constant obsession, the missed moments, and the challenge of being present when your mind is always in the car.
This episode is an honest look at what it truly takes to fight for the top, and what gets left behind along the way.
