Return Of The King ft. Larry Chen
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Larry Chen, world-renowned racing photographer and author of the new book “Life at Shutter Speed.” Larry & JB recap a busy Barcelona Grand Prix, where Lewis Hamilton finally got his first win at Ferrari. It was a strategical masterclass from The Prancing Horses, who are now within striking distance for the world championship. Is Lewis primed to continue his podium streak at Spielberg, or was it simply a stroke of luck in Spain? We also go between the ears of George Russell & Charles Leclerc, as both continue to lose their grip on the #1 seats within their respective teams. Meanwhile, McLaren & Red Bull continue to close the gap with each race, and both are historically strong at the upcoming Austrian Grand Prix.

Kimi Grande ft. David Coulthard
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes David Coulthard, 2x Monaco Grand Prix Winner, F1TV Lead Commentator & Up To Speed Host. Both JB & DC were in Monaco, and they start by swapping stories from their eventful weekend at F1’s most glamorous race. Kimi Antonelli became the youngest winner at storied Monaco en route to winning his fifth straight grand prix. How long will his streak continue, and how have his winning ways affected the rest of the paddock? We recap an afternoon full of penalties, where there’s still ongoing interpretation & protest amongst the various teams involved. Lewis Hamilton was among the drivers penalized…so how impressive was it for the old veteran to capture his second consecutive P2 finish?

Fourward Momentum ft. Oliver Bearman
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Oliver Bearman, current driver for Haas Formula 1 team. Oliver recaps an eventful Canadian Grand Prix, where young phenom Kimi Antonelli notched his fourth consecutive victory. It’s encouraging for Oliver to see validation within F1’s youth movement, knowing he’s competed against and beaten Kimi in lower classifications. We address Oliver’s presumed promotion into the second Ferrari seat at some point, and how he’s continuing to turn heads by consistently scoring points in an inferior car. JB then previews our next race as the crown jewel of the F1 calendar year looms large, the Monaco Grand Prix!

Veni Vidi Vice ft. James Hinchcliffe
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes James Hinchcliffe, F1TV Lead Presenter and former INDYCAR driver. James explains why Kimi Antonelli’s third consecutive victory in Miami was his most complete to date. Antonelli currently sits high atop the F1 driver standings and is now the favorite to win the championship. How much credit goes to Toto Wolff in developing the 19yo phenom? And is George Russell equipped to close the gap to his Mercedes teammate? The on-track racing at last weekend’s Miami GP presented well to fans and temporarily quieted critics of the new cars…but how will another short break translate onto the track in Montreal?

Spring Brakethroughs ft. Guenther Steiner
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Guenther Steiner, former F1 Team Principal and current CEO of the Tech3 MotoGP team. Guenther shares his thoughts on the first three rounds, and hints McLaren is in position to start challenging Mercedes once racing resumes. Speaking of McLaren, their hiring of Max Verstappen’s longtime race engineer has everyone in the paddock speculating Max could be on the move to another team. Could Ferrari be in play? We also cover some great stories from the midfield pack, where Haas & Alpine have both exceeded expectations thus far and sit 4th & 5threspectively. On the flip side of the coin, things can’t get much worse for Aston Martin…will they be the team to see the most gains from this five-week break?

Arrows Up ft. Lawrence Barretto
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Lawrence Barretto, Lead Presenter at F1TV. Lawrence & JB share their thoughts on the Japanese Grand Prix, which saw Kimi Antonelli notch his second consecutive win. Do we have a potential controversy brewing inside the Mercedes garage? Our weekend in Suzuka also saw a horrific crash, where amazingly Ollie Bearman only sustained minor injuries…was the cause of the crash an issue the F.I.A. will look to remedy before the Miami Grand Prix? Lawrence also has unprecedented access to F1’s drivers, and offers you a behind the scenes look at their demeanors when off-camera. Lewis Hamilton has a good amount of his swagger back as his Ferrari has been challenging for regular podiums. And is Max Verstappen really so dispirited with these new cars that he’s seriously considering early retirement?

A Star Is Born ft. Mario Andretti
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Mario Andretti, Cadillac F1 Board Director & Former Formula 1 World Drivers’ Champion. Mario explains the significance of Kimi Antonelli’s first Formula 1 victory in Shanghai, and how it could impact the team dynamic at Mercedes in the weeks to come. He says the new cars & regulations should be taken in stride as part of evolving the sport, and says drivers simply have to move forward and get on with it. As for his Cadillac F1 team, he is encouraging everyone to think big and aim for quality points finishes by the end of the 2026 campaign. JB is joined in studio by Tommy Kendall, Motorsports Hall of Fame Driver. Tommy & JB are starting to warm up to the new racing, as we’ve been treated to some spirited battles during the opening laps at both Australia & China. We also point out the stark differences between Ferrari notching podiums and running strong, while defending champions McLaren have already dug themselves into an 80 point constructors deficit.

Silver Arrows Sweep ft. Fred Smith
On this latest episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Fred Smith, F1 Editor at Road & Track. Fred recaps our first race of the 2026 campaign, which featured the debut of new cars & regulations. Reviews were mixed to say the least, however Fred & JB agree that the FIA plan to make tweaks along the way to get the sport closer to its roots. As for the Australian Grand Prix itself, Mercedes flexed their muscle early, sending George to both pole position and P1, while teammate Kimi Antonelli finished P2. While Ferrari seems to be our clear #2 team, things are a mixed bag further down the board with McLaren & Red Bull drivers griping about changes to the car. Despite a questionable strategy call, all race fans can agree it was great to see a rejuvenated Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari on the podium with Charles Leclerc’s P3 result.

2026 SEASON PREVIEW ft. Ruth Buscombe
On the Season 4 debut episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Ruth Buscombe, F1TV Lead Presenter & Former Team Strategist at Ferrari. Ruth cycles through the top four teams, providing behind the scenes insight from her time at the Bahrain preseason testing heats. Mercedes are the heavy favorites based on early data, and Ruth feels George Russell is ready to compete for the WDC crown if the car measures up to expectations. The overarching storylines heading into Melbourne all center around the new car specs and regulations…which should in theory level the playing field across the paddock. As for the Aussie GP, JB thinks we’ll certainly be in for a few shocking moments! Will Ferrari’s wild innovations yield results? Are McLaren sandbagging? Will Max Verstappen’s driving style mesh with his new Ford power unit? And how will debutants Cadillac & Audi fare in their maiden voyage onto the grid?
