Well, well, well! That was quite something. With five races still to go, the action at COTA has driven a further wedge into the season. Can Ferrari bag a constructor’s title? Could Charles inch his way to big win? How has Norris bottled it again? Why can’t McLaren grow a backbone and look at the bigger picture? Lots of questions to be answered. So join Thiemo and Jesse as they sit down to mull over the motoring madness from ‘Merica. No Ellie-May this week as she’s under the weather, so we wish her well.
