Welcome back to the Track Limits Podcast! Tune in with Henny and Swish as they unpack all the highlights from the recently concluded Spanish Grand Prix.

Heading into the weekend, all eyes were on Red Bull to see if their dominance was waning or if recent results were just anomalies. During the three free practice sessions, McLaren and Mercedes cars showed strong performance, but you can never count out Max Verstappen. In qualifying, Verstappen initially positioned himself for pole, but in a dramatic final moment, Lando Norris clinched the top spot.

George Russell made a spectacular start to the race, moving from P4 to P1 in a maneuver reminiscent of Fernando Alonso in 2011. However, Max Verstappen quickly overtook Russell on Lap 2, demonstrating his skill even without the best car on the grid. McLaren maintained a strong pace throughout the race, frequently threatening Verstappen's lead.

Despite their efforts, Max fended off challenges from Lando and the Mercedes duo to secure the win. This race indicated that Red Bull's dominance might be over, as Checo struggled and finished in P8, unable to make an impact throughout the weekend.

Other teams have made significant strides to challenge Verstappen at the front. With two races left in the triple header, drivers like Lando Norris, Charles Leclerc, and Lewis Hamilton are eager to snatch victories from Max.
