    Antonelli Is UNSTOPPABLE. McLaren was SO close | Miami GP 2026 Review with Danii Clarkson

    04/05/2026 | 37 mins.
    Kimi Antonelli just won his THIRD race in a row at the Miami Grand Prix 2026 and he's only 19 years old. McLaren brought their biggest upgrades, Lando Norris led the race, and they STILL couldn't beat Mercedes. We break it down exactly why.

    This week on Paddock 43, we're deep in the Miami GP 2026 race review: Antonelli's record-breaking hat-trick, the McLaren undercut, Charles Leclerc's catastrophic final lap spin and post-race time penalty, Pierre Gasly's terrifying upside-down crash, and what the 2026 F1 championship standings now look like heading into the Canadian Grand Prix.

    In this episode:

    Kimi Antonelli's Miami GP win, how he became the first driver in F1 history to win from each of his first three poles
    Why McLaren's strategy cost Norris a race victory despite having the pace
    Oscar Piastri's insane comeback drive from the back of the pack to P3
    Charles Leclerc: spin, barrier contact, post-race penalty. Full breakdown
    Pierre Gasly's crash and Williams double points
    Full 2026 F1 drivers' championship standings breakdown

    F1 2026 Rule Changes! + Turkey GP Confirmed & The Fight Back After the Break

    27/04/2026 | 23 mins.
    F1 is (ALMOST) BACK after a five-week break… and somehow, it seems as though its returning as a completely different sport with the updated 2026 regulations

    In this episode of Paddock 43, we break down the FIA’s early tweaks to the 2026 F1 rules, from energy management changes and increased power deployment to new race start safety systems and wet weather adjustments. After just three races, F1 is already refining the future of the sport… so will it change much or not?

    We also unpack the biggest story heading into the Miami GP: can Mercedes maintain their dominance, or is the gap finally closing? With McLaren bringing a new car, Ferrari chasing performance, and Red Bull stuck in the midfield, this could be a turning point in the 2026 season.

    And finally… it’s official. The Turkish Grand Prix is returning to Formula 1 with a confirmed 5-year deal from 2027. We talk about why Istanbul Park is one of the best tracks on the calendar — and what this says about F1’s future direction.

    If you’re into Formula 1 news, 2026 regulation changes, F1 rumours, and race analysis, this is the episode for you. 🏁 Welcome to Paddock 43 – The Formula 1 Podcast That Keeps It Real!

    30/03/2026 | 36 mins.
    Kimi Antonelli takes control of the 2026 Formula 1 season with a dominant win at the Japanese Grand Prix, becoming the youngest championship leader in history. But was this a statement drive… or did McLaren throw away a guaranteed victory?

    We also dive into the controversial safety car moment following Ollie Bearman’s massive crash, the growing concerns around closing speeds in the 2026 regulations, and what it means for driver safety going forward.

    Plus, we ask the big question: Is Max Verstappen going to leave F1?

    This is your full F1 Japan GP 2026 review, with analysis, bold takes, and everything you need to know heading into Miami. 🏁 Welcome to Paddock 43 – The Formula 1 Podcast That Keeps It Real!
