Will Ferrari snatch the 2026 F1 title from Kimi Antonelli?

Will Ferrari snatch the 2026 F1 title from Kimi Antonelli?

Author: Motor Sport June 4, 2026 Duration: 48:19

Ferrari is favourite to win in Monaco this weekend - and that might just be the start of a Formula 1 title fightback.


Mark Hughes and Bryn Lucas reveal why the team could end the 2026 season with the fastest car, thanks to its innovative aerodynamic features, plus the prospect of two key engine upgrades that promise to put the team at least on a par with Mercedes — and potentially ahead of the current championship leaders.


But all is not well at Maranello, as unexpected rule changes, proposed for next year, could strip away the team's key advantages. Will Ferrari succeed then suffer a double whammy? Can it block the new regulations. All is explored in this latest episode of the Motor Sport F1 Show.


We also look ahead to the Monaco Grand Prix where, in shock news, overtaking could once more be on the cards, giving the polesitter more than usual to worry about. McLaren's celebrating its 1000th grand prix too: don't miss Mark's whistlestop history of the current constructors' champions, plus his view on how Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri compare to its greatest team-mate line-ups.


Plus: your questions answered - what has been the greatest qualifying lap of the 21st century so far? And has one of our viewers come up with the solution to all of F1's current woes?


More on the stories that really matter, in the latest episode of the Motor Sport F1 Show.
