Grid Walk

BONUS POD REACTING TO THE LEWIS HAMILTON/FERRARI NEWS DROPPING TOMORROW (2/2). F1 doesn't like to sync up with the Grid Walk recording schedule 🤪... In the meantime, we will be in the comments and DMs spiraling with you all

It really feels like Formula 1 is getting back into the swing of things! Grid Walk is here to give you the latest on all things F1!

Formula 1 Management has officially denied Andretti’s bid to join the F1 grid. Was this really about Andretti or more about the conflict between the FIA and FOM?

Briana shares the first Grid Walk podium of 2024! What were the top 3 ways that Visa Cash App RB really butchered their launch?

Contract extensions have been announced for Charles Leclerc at Ferrari and Lando Norris at Mclaren. Was this a smart career move for the drivers? How will this affect the 2024 silly season? Fast forward to 2026, will either the drivers or teams regret these “multiple year” extensions?

Gossip Grid is back for an off-season F1 pop culture roundup to tell you what the drivers and teams have been up to! What fashion events did Lewis Hamilton attend? What does Pierre Gasly have in his garage? What monopoly piece does Oscar Piastri use?

With car launches kicking off this week, Briana and Nicole share their podiums for ways these F1 teams can win car launch season! Will Haas have an actual launch or just tweet their livery again? Will Stake lean into the fun? How can Williams utilize Alex Albon’s great personality? Will Alpine unveil a pink livery and will it stay through the entire season?

🏎️🍾Grid Walk is a sometimes funny, often silly, and quick witted weekly show for Formula One fans. Don’t miss a weekly laugh filled Thursday episode full of recurring bits, race analysis, business breakdowns, and painfully awful predictions.
