Will Buxton on Lando's title chase, F1's new generation & Drive To Survive secrets

Author: 30-40 / Acast October 4, 2024 Duration: 49:49

This week we're joined by the face and voice of Drive To Survive and F1 TV Will Buxton for a catch-up on the season so far and to dive deep into the history of F1 (thanks to his new book Grand Prix: An Illustrated History of Formula 1).


He covers some serious ground from the spark that got him into the sport, to who he's looking forward to seeing come through the ranks in the next few years.


There's also a chance to get his views on Lando Norris' chances of catching Mx Verstappen, some Drive To Survive behind-the-scenes secrets and the impact social media has had on him since he started working in the paddock.
