59: Briatore’s Return And A British GP Preview

It's time for June 2024's Flat Chat with Codders for GP Racing Magazine as Codders is joined as ever by Mark Gallagher from New York and Autosport's Grand Prix Editor Alex Kalinauckas!

In this edition of the show, the trio talk about the big return of Flavio Briatore to the Alpine team as a "Special Supervisor". What direction is the future of the Alpine team heading in, and what was the thought process of Renault CEO Luca De Meo, especially with the team's current technical shortcomings, with the possibility of them dropping their power units fresh in the news!

There's also a big preview for next week's British Grand Prix, with eight-time winner Lewis Hamilton the main focus. Included is a fascinating story about how GP Racing's own photographer Steven Tee used a unique method of analyising the tyre wear of Hamilton's competitors in 2008...

...And finally a deep dive on Yuki Tsunoda as he begins to emerge as RB's Team Leader, just as his team slips to the back of the pecking order via their new upgrade package!
