After bringing to you Nico ‘The Hulk’ Hulkenberg last week, we bring to you Sergio ‘Checo’ Perez this week. Tune in to hear Checo’s favourite radio message and how he played a prank on his former team, Sauber. And of course, no prizes for guessing which driver’s radio he would enjoying listening to the most.

Apart from Checo’s bytes, we discuss how Felipe Massa might just go from Formula 1’s shortest ever (in terms of time) world champion to logging the sport’s shortest ever (again, in terms of time) retirement. To think of it, it was Jenson Button who was seeking a sabbatical and not Massa!

We empathise with Pascal Wehrlein – who must be feeling like s*** after being snubbed by Force India and now Mercedes – and possibly Williams too. On the other hand, Stoffel Vandoorne might not be doing himself many favours by selecting ‘2’ as his driver number in Formula 1.

If the future of the road relevant Formula One engines could be electric, why are we not following Formula E already?

And finally, do remember to subscribe to us on iTunes or audioBoom as we work towards bringing to you our ever-popular Inside Line F1 Podcast Awards in the New Year.

Merry Christmas!
