Welcome back to the Track Limits Podcast! Join Henny, Feven, and Mikey as they delve into the Japanese Grand Prix that just wrapped up.
The Japan Grand Prix arrived swiftly this time around, echoing the theme from last year: can the Red Bull team bounce back from a challenging previous race? As qualifying concluded, both Red Bulls found themselves comfortably positioned in P1 and P2, and during the race, they demonstrated dominance.
Once again, the pressure mounted for Daniel Ricciardo to perform, but his race ended abruptly after just the first two corners due to a collision with Alex Albon. With his lacklustre performance in the first four races, Ricciardo finds himself under scrutiny, given the talent at Red Bull. Meanwhile, Yuki continues to impress earning another point; this time in his home race.
Following a tumultuous previous race for Williams, issues persisted as Logan Sargeant crashed the car in FP1 and Alex Albon retired due to the collision with Daniel on lap one. With no spare chassis available, they enter China with two cars and no backups.
Carlos continues to enjoy a stellar run, showcasing his abilities to all the team principals. The lingering question remains: how long can he sustain this performance, especially when the car isn't the strongest on the track?
