Ultimate Russell - 2026 Azerbaijan Grand Prix Review

Welcome to Azerbaijan on a Saturday, George Russell and the most dominant photo finish of all-time. But in all seriousness, Baku had George take off his belt and beat the field's ass with it. He was just one FP3 top away from F1's first perfect weekend since Italy 2015. And yet despite all that, due to a late Valtteri Bottas crash on the final lap, he won by just 20 metres from Max Verstappen's furious final attack on the Brit.

Dre, Cam and RJ make sense of all the action, including how Mercedes' deployment is dunking on the field, how Ferrari continue to malaise, and how Franco Colapinto pissed off everyone with a reckless crash on a Safety Car restart that essentially ended Lando Norris' slim chances of a Championship. Sure the Colapinto fanbase will take it well...

We also talk about the first draft of the 2030 engine regulations and why we're all kinda whelmed at going to V8 Hybrids with a 3 litre engine.
