Inside Line F1 Podcast

One of Motorsport and Formula 1's most-influential figures Dr. Helmut Marko returned as a guest on the Inside Line F1 Podcast.

Dr. Marko, who is Red Bull's Motorsport Advisor, took time to discuss several topics with your regular trio of hosts - Soumil Arora, @f1statsguru and Kunal Shah.

In this episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Dr. Marko spoke about Red Bull Racing's shocking loss to McLaren at the 2024 Dutch Grand Prix, commented on what it takes to be Max Verstappen's team-mate and how maybe only Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris can come close. He also weighed in on Mercedes' repeated interest in hiring Max Verstappen and his comments on exit clauses.

We've split Dr. Marko's episode into 2 parts. Part 1, this episode, talks about current affairs regarding Red Bull Racing.

Part 2, which is out next week, will focus on "20 years to Red Bull Racing" where Dr. Marko re-lives some of his proudest moments, the early day challenges, Adrian Newey, Jonathan Wheatley and more.
