In Ep69 of Away We Go Podcast, Di is joined by Ciara Gillan (Formula Live Pulse) to unpack what’s changed off-track, what matters heading into the Miami Grand Prix, and the biggest rumours swirling through the paddock.

This episode covers Ferrari’s latest speculation, Red Bull’s long-lead departure news, and why super-clipping, lift-and-coast and battery management are becoming the new battleground in 2026.
