Alanis, Elizabeth, and Nolan open this week’s episode with a discussion about Elizabeth’s recent deep-dive into F1 history… about whether or not fictional character Jean Girard ran in the 2005 US Grand Prix. Then they get into the long and interesting history of Formula One’s technical regulation changes, and whether last year’s switch-ups made a tangible difference. But most importantly, the crew has to ask: has George Russell ever seen a Miata?
