Note: This episode was recorded before Thursday's news of the passing of Eddie Jordan, Dre adds some extra words in the intro of this episode, but there'll be a full conversation about Eddie on next week's show.
Dre, Cam and RJ look back at what was a chaotic opening round of the 2025 Formula 1 Season, the first wet race in Australia since 2003, and with it, Lando Norris pipping Max Verstappen to the post by less than a second. We discuss how Lando kept cool under pressure, as well as Verstappen's Red Bull struggles, and why it's still cursed to pick an Aussie to win in his backyard - This time, via Piastri reversing out of wet grass. Very Clarkson's farm.
There's also a mixed bag of rookies to report on - Kimi Antonelli shined en route to fourth and the best debut performance by a driver since Kevin Magnussen in 2014, everyone else... not so much. From Gabriel Bortoleto's suspension collapsing to Isack Hadjar getting the rare DNS from a Formation Lap spin, and an important and comforting Anthony Hamilton gesture in the back.
Also, Ferrari's mentioned. Help. All that in another Motorsport101!
