Nothing fires the Pitpass team up like a dull race, making the post-Shanghai episode jam packed with outrage, rants and laughs.
Editor Chris Balfe, Glen Crompton and Mat Coch return for another post-race podcast in which they manage to avoid talking about the race much at all and instead focus on the important things, like a possible job opportunity for Chris at Red Bull and whether Bernie's staff consists solely lawyers.
Indeed lawyers get a fair grilling from the team, mostly by Crompo. There are trademarks and lawsuits and regulations, indeed Editor Balfe - the proud recipient of the Pitpass Memorial David Croft/James Allen Award for Unbelievable Statistical Research - suggests there are so many lawyers involved in the sport-which-cannot-be-named that they deserve their own garage in the pitlane.
Marco Mattiacci, the new boss at Ferrari, may be in his first week with the team but even his sunglasses couldn't hide him from the eagle-eyed team, who predict dire times ahead for the Italian marque.
But at least the show finishes on schedule, unlike the Chinese Grand Prix. You didn't think we'd let that one go, did you?
