In a jam-packed episode, Motorsport Journalist Rory Smith and Alex Mack cover the silliest move of any season as Lewis Hamilton is announced as a Ferrari driver starting 2025, leaving the Mercedes F1 team. In what appeared to be a rushed announcement to stop leaks through the media,  both teams confirmed subsequent media reports that the 7-time Formula One World Champion will now be in red.

In earlier news this week that shook the racing world, F1 not only rejected Andretti Global's bid for the grid in 2025, they also made a fool of themselves with their public release of their rejection letter.  Alex and Rory discuss how the move signifies to the motorsport world that any hope of Formula One turning their new found financial success for the bettering of a more competitive series, this might be the last straw.

Finally, the duo break down the 24 Hours of Le Mans and discuss IMSA and WEC's continued growth and success as series.
