Summary

As championship leader Kimi Antonelli and the rest of F1 head to Monza, Harry Benjamin and Nicola Hume are here to investigate why the Italian has cause for concern. Off the back of Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawson’s stand-in success in Zandvoort, they also revisit the most memorable F1 super subs, from the sublime to the ridiculous. Nicola puts Harry on the spot with her Formula 1 or Formula Fun facts - which are true and which are fake? Plus, have the Backstreet Boys nailed the perfect driver boyband line-up?
