It's time! Brian and Patrick have seen enough, heard enough, read enough. We are ready to deliver the official Hard Compound predictions for the F1 2026 season. It's all here. Driver champion, Constructor, streaks broken, first win, best rookie, first to be sacked, and more.

Plus! Our script for the F1 the Movie sequel.

And as always, thank you for listening to everybody's most beloved father and son F1 podcast!

Our open discussion -- we are still working through these ideas -- on how F1 has rapidly evolved from a (mostly) European sport into a global platform with multiple massive revenue-generating ecosystems. New fortunes will be made and new personalities will shine through. It's like private equity, but in reverse. Instead of extracting every resource, today's F1 is enabling thousands of new opportunities to flourish.

We also share our thoughts on a potential "F1 World" -- like Disney World, but for Formula 1. Sim race alongside a Charles Leclerc avatar. Enjoy a non-alcoholic beverage at Lewis Hamilton's bar. Drive Sao Paulo Grand in the rain.

It's that time of year again! The annual "Effys." Our completely non-official Formula 1 awards for best driver, best team, worst driver, worst team, best rookie, best cry, dumbest move, favorite race, and more!

Join Patrick and Brian on the Hard Compound. Relive F1 2025 before the new season lines up.
