James Allen from Motorsport.com joins Rusty to try and make sense of Christian Horner’s sacking now that some of the dust has settled.

Is this the end of the biggest story of the Formula 1 season or is there another twist still to come?
Why following Max Verstappen’s private jet flight path and Toto Wolff’s Sardinia sailing route makes absolutely no sense during this mid season break.

The logical play Max might make ahead of the sport’s big 2026 regulation change as well as the little known ‘flare up’ between Christian & Jos Verstappen after Silverstone.

Rusty & James also ponder the future of Ferrari team boss Fred Vasseur and will Lewis Hamilton win a GP in red this year?

Plus how will McLaren manage two incredibly talented drivers in Aussie Oscar Piastri & Lando Norris during the 2nd half of the season, especially now that Lando has shown a new level of psychological strength.

This is one of the best summaries you will find anywhere on the interweb as the respected & articulate former F1 commentator James Allen shares his paddock insights.
