F1 may now be on its summer break, but its been a busy week of news, which Edd Straw and Scott Mitchell-Malm digest on this episode. First up, Scott brings us some fresh reporting on why Red Bull has chosen to stick with Sergio Perez (for now), and how it plans to help him find form again.
After that, there's a look at what the Perez situation means for Red Bull's wider driver situation, before talk turns to the news that Red Bull team manager Jonathan Wheatley has been recruited to be Audi's new team principal.
Why has Audi plumped for him, and what impact will his departure have on Red Bull? Edd and Scott answer those questions before turning their attention to Alpine, who have now installed Oliver Oakes as team principal and are set to announce Jack Doohan as Pierre Gasly's team mate for 2025.
