Max Verstappen has returned, we were all wondering if Red Bull's struggles from Singapore would continue, and they did not... That's ok though, because this week F1 was in JAPAN, one of our favorite spots on the F1 world tour!

This episode starts off a bit differently as Knoll reads part of an F1 fanfiction that he wrote, will Delaney enjoy it and find it funny, or will she hate it so much that they have to end the podcast.

Then of course we have the race itself:

• Sergio Perez retires and then re-retires
• George Russell and Mercedes try (and fail) to be smooth operators
• Max Verstappen is back

These are just some of the topics we explore on this fantastic episode of Not on This Occasion, host by Knoll & Delaney!

Check us out!

Apologies for the delay on this one, there has been some sickness going around and it got us both.

It’s finally time to talk about the Singapore Grand Prix, and with that, the end of the Red Bull consecutive win streak. For the first time since Austria last year, Ferrari are on the top step of the podium!

Red Bull didn’t just lose this race, they were kind of nowhere all weekend, which was not what anyone would have expected from the team that has won all 15 races so far.

We will be discussing not only what this loss means for Red Bull but also the incredible performance by Carlos Sainz, and his amazing use of DRS as well as his Bromance partner Lando Norris.

We hope you all enjoy this episode of Not on This Occasion!

Today is a very special day for Not On This Occasion, because today is the day we finally dive into Formula 1 Fanfiction!

Knoll & Delaney will be jumping into "Overtake My Heart" the Daniel Ricciardo fanfiction by Anita Driver, as well as her other "children's" books: "Stop Drop and Stroll" and "Charles Leclerc and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Monaco Grand Prix".

Delaney will also be introducing us to "The Dirty Air Series" and its first book "Throttled".

This is definitely a different topic from our usual episodes, but we think these books are something ever F1 fan should be familiar with, as they are jammed full of F1 references and GENUINE SPICEY DRAMA (kinda). So, sit back and enjoy this... unusual episode of Not on This Occasion!

The Italian Grand Prix is always one of the best races during the season, and this year was no exception. We had intense battles, near death experiences, and the return of the fantastic Alex "Chad" Albon. We all wondered if the "Monza Curse" was set to return this race, but alas, Red Bull and the Nico Rosberg curse were too strong...

The main topics today are:

• Carlos Sainz and the Ferrari Upset
• Red Bull's record-breaking season
• Silly season updates from Mercedes
• THE COST CAP (accountants love this!)

So, join Knoll & Delaney for another thrilling episode of Not on This Occasion

Just like that, summer break is over, and Knoll & Delaney are back to discuss THE ABSOLUTLY CRAZY AND INTENSE DUTCH GRAND PRIXXX!! With 186 overtakes to boot, this year's trip to Zandvoort has provided us one of the most action packs and thrilling races of the season.

Oh yes, we also had the insane and unexpected continuation of the Daniel Ricciardo Experience. His return to Alpha Tauri has been temporarily cut short, and the new kid Liam Lawson found himself making his F1 debut in the craziest race of the year!

Max Verstappen has tied the all-time record with 9 wins in a row, can he hit 10 next week in Monza?

All of this and much more will be discussed by Knoll & Delaney on this fantastic, excellent, unbelievable, star-studded, EPIC, and breathtaking episode of Not on This Occasion!!!

Today is an episode that we have been planning on doing for a long time, we've hinted at it in previous episodes, dating back to the beginning of this podcast.

Today we are looking at the current landscape of the Women in motorsports, and the efforts by FOM and F1 management to create spaces for young women drivers to develop their skills, in hopes of one day competing more regularly in other series on the F1 ladder. We talk about the pros at cons of the W-Series and its successor F1 Academy and discuss whether these series are heading in the right direction and heading toward a bright future for women drivers and fans!

It wouldn't be a Not on This Occasion episode without a bit of drama, because we are also talking about Danica Patrick. Patrick recently made some interesting comments during the Hungarian Grand Prix weekend, so it's finally time to break into that can of worms.

Join Knoll & Delaney for a discussion on a topic that is not only serious, but important to both of us!

It's time to wrap of the first half of the F1 season, today we will be discussing the Belgium Grand Prix from the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps!

Belgium has been a controversial stop on the F1 circus for the past few seasons, it is no doubt a classic circuit, but it is also a very dangerous and tricky track to get right. This time of year, the hills of Belgium are frequently visited by rain, and this race was no exception. Rain and Belgium don't go well together anymore, and so the question is... is it time to leave Belgium FOREVER!

Other topics discussed by Knoll & Delaney include:

• McLaren - Good pace the last few races, can they finish 2nd in the standings?
• The Sprint Race - For the 2nd time this season the sprint race was interrupted by mother nature.
• Alpine - Alpine made a shocking announcement before the race, their team principle as well as their sporting director would be leaving the team!! Doesn't seem like a great plan for the French operated team.

And now, it is time for the F1 summer break! Join us on our other platforms where we will be taking a much-needed break from the 2023 F1 season.
