On the latest episode of The Race F1 Tech Show, host Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson look back on Imola and ahead to Monaco.

First, they discuss how Red Bull turned the tables on McLaren at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, asking whether this was a track-specific change in the pecking order, or whether Red Bull have made a significant step forward.

Next, Edd and Gary turn their attention to Monaco, looking at the specific setup that the street track demands and then the debating how the teams will approach race strategy, with two pit stops mandatory for every driver in this year's race.

And as usual, the final part of the podcast is dedicated to Gary answering tech questions sent in by listeners. This week the selection includes questions on gears, pitstops, underbody aerodynamics, and track evolution.

In this episode, we tackle the latest technical intrigue between Red Bull and McLaren and look ahead to the potential for an upset in the Monaco Grand Prix.

Scott Mitchell-Malm and Ben Anderson join Edd Straw to explain the real story behind the technical directives that were issued before the Imola race, but only emerged after it.

They also ask how the mandatory two pitstops might impact the Monaco race, and if there’s a way for a backmarker to leap up the order with some clever strategy.

We also tackle listener questions on Red Bull’s driver situation with Yuki Tsunoda’s struggles, Liam Lawons’s troubles at Racing Bulls and Isack Hadjar’s strong start.

There’s also questions on warm-up lanes, Ollie Bearmans pace relative to Esteban Ocon, similarities between McLaren this year and Williams in 1997 and more.

The Team Principal Podcast returns with exciting news, as Otmar Szafnauer brings us up to speed with on his plans to get a 12th team onto the F1 grid. Alongside his deputy TP Ben Anderson, Otmar explains why he thinks F1 would benefit from a 24-car grid and how he plans to make his vision a reality.

After that, Otmar and Ben go over recent events at Otmar's old team, Alpine. Otmar shares his views on the latest leadership crisis at the Anglo-French squad, and weighs in on the decision to stand down Jack Doohan just six races into his rookie season for Franco Colapinto.

And finally, after some cheeky recent comments from McLaren boss Zak Brown, Otmar sets the record straight on what happened with Oscar Piastri's contract situation at Alpine, including why he was helpless to prevent McLaren poaching the current championship leader back in 2022.
