Autosport Podcast: F1 Australian GP review
The Ferrari driver missed the Saudi Arabian GP and was replaced by Oliver Bearman, who had a fantastic debut. However, Sainz bounced back in Melbourne, winning convincingly after Verstappen’s brake problems. His performance only boosted his prospects for 2025 when Lewis Hamilton will take over his seat at Ferrari. Sainz led a 1-2 victory for Ferrari with Leclerc, while McLaren’s drivers outperformed Red Bull’s Perez. The Australian GP highlighted Sainz’s potential to win even in a Verstappen showdown, in a race with only 19 starters. The absence of Mercedes at the finish and Alonso’s penalty sparked debates among fans. For further insights, check out the latest edition of the Autosport Podcast featuring Bryn Lucas and others.
