Episode 37 - Round 9 saw the 2nd Italian Gp this year with one more to go in this crazy and fantastic 2020 season we are witnessing. We were in Mugello, Tuscany for first time ever for a Formula 1 race. What a fantastic looking circuit at the foot of mountains and with its old school gravel traps all around the track it definitely bought a very welcome vibe and buzz to this years calander.  The race itself also didn't disappoint. We had the FIA's new favourite weapon to spice things up deployed twice, the Red Flag. In the end we only had 12 finishers. Rather fitting imo to have an old school finish rate at an old school track. RedBull and Max failed fire a single shot. Bottas teased us with the promise of something different after the first Lights Out however Gasly had other ideas. Jump in and listen in to our thoughts and discussions on the weekend that was Mugello.  As always, thankyou for listening and supporting us.

Lights Out F1

This car can't handle my big balls

Episode 36 - Round 8 was the first of 3 Italian Gp's on the calendar for this year at Monza. While the last 2 rounds  may have been uneventful, Monza certainly delivered and gave us another Italian fairytale which will definitely be brought up and talked about for years from now just like people still remember and talk about Sebs win in the Torro Rosso in 2008.  This week we have our good friend ZenRazo joining us to go through all that went down in Monza. So grab those headphones or settle in for that long drive and enjoy the 90mins ahead. Next stop, Italian GP #2 Mugello, lets hope that's another corker and can keep the surprises coming.     As always, thankyou for listening and supporting us.

Episode 35 - Round 7 of the COVID 2020 season was at the famous SPA-Francorchamps. Unfortunately it wasn't a classic that we will remember forever other than the fact that it was the Spa race with zero crowds.

Will we get to see them finally topple the mighty silver arrows again this year? Racing Point where.....meh.....again and Renault really surprised!    As always, thankyou for listening and supporting us.

Episode 32 - This week we were at the Hungororing. Famously known as Monaco without the walls. It's the 2nd most difficult track to overtake at, on the calendar. The weather played it's roll to spice things up. Max put it in the wall on the out lap to the grid. Bottas jumped the start, or did he? Stroll and Racing Point actually raced and looked decent again!

I wanna kiss you! I wanna kiss you man.

   Episode 31 - Well we were back at the RedBull Ring for a 2nd week in a row, no not for the Austrian GP but the Styrian Grand Prix for the first time and most likely last time. It definitely wasn't a rinse and repeat of last week as most pundits had predicted in the extended off season once the double had at the same track was announced. We had a proper wet qually was absolutely fantastic. We had Ferrari....well doing what Ferrari does these days. We had Lando...well doing what Lando does best these days with another finish to race. Mclaren are now running 2nd in the Championship! Who would have predicted that after 2 races in?  Jump in and have a listen to the boys as they go through their take on the weekend.

Yeah Boys!

Episode 30 - Yes, F1 is BACK and so is the LightsOutF1 Podcast. Formula 1 returned this past weekend at the RedBull Ring Austria and what a return it was!  Josh and Orz got different feels from the first race of the season. One was super excited almost, frothing at the mouth while the other one was "yeh, it was okay". Let us know how you felt. We are interested to hear what everyone else' feelings where too post lockdowns/Covid. Is it just a reaction/consequence from all of the stuff we are going through in this strange world ATM, from both sides of the spectrum? The RedBull ring threw up a lot of talking points and raised a few questions too. Kick back and listen to our thoughts on the first F1 weekend of 2020. Even more interesting is the fact that we are back there for Round 2 to do it all again next week. This is something we have never witnessed before. Who will make a mends? Who will learn from their mistakes? Who will come out on top one week later around the same track? Will the reliability be better? Will Lewis not crash into Albon? hehe...  All of those questions will be answered next Sunday night.  Please make sure you like and follow our facebook pages. All of the links are below.

Not Bahrain, it's a VIRTUAL joke!

Episode 28 - Well the season opening Round 1 date has come and gone, yet unfortunately we still don't have a GP to review for 2020.  I'm sure we are all aware of the terrible situation around the world at the moment and to some extent or other sick of hearing the word "Coronavirus" so please bare with us as this podcast is a little different from our usual style and format. This week we have a reaction and opinion episode on all the goings on over the NON Gp weekend and how all the responsible parties in charge handled the entire situation. Who was really to blame, if anyone? Was the right decision made? Could this have all been avoided? What does this all mean for the rest of this season? This episode was recorded live and streamed to our Demo1Garage YouTube on Saturday afternoon only 24hrs after the decision was made to cancel the weekend. Which is why you will hear live interaction with people who were in the chat. Now with the extended break, don't forget to jump into our LightsOutF1 Fantasy League in anticipation for the return of Formula 1. Also, make sure you like and follow our facebook pages.
