Ep 135: Lights Out 2026: DTS Debate, Leclerc's Wedding & What to Expect in Melbourne

1h 4m | Mar 3, 2026

The wait is over. Formula 1 is back, the regulations are new, and we have absolutely no idea what's going to happen — which is exactly how we like it.

This week we're kicking off the 2026 season with everything that's been swirling around the paddock heading into Melbourne. Charles Leclerc got married, and we have thoughts. Drive to Survive dropped its eighth season, and the internet is split on whether the show still matters or whether it's run its course — we're breaking that debate down with our most reliable chat regulars. Then we get into the racing: Aston Martin swears they've turned a corner, Mercedes has been suspiciously quiet in a way that either means they're cooking or they've burned the kitchen down, and Max Verstappen's already told us the Red Bull will show up with the same colors and not much else.

What can we actually expect when these brand new cars hit Albert Park for real? We'll speculate, we'll overreact, and we'll probably lose focus at least twice. Welcome to 2026.
