High Performance Racing

New episode every week 🏁

They say you can’t truly understand Formula 1 without real experts; High Performance Racing brings you the people who actually lived it.

Hosted by Jake Humphrey alongside former Aston Martin & Alpine Team Principal Otmar Szafnauer and ex-Ferrari & Williams Race Engineer Rob Smedley, this brand-new show breaks down the sport's biggest news stories through the eyes of seasoned F1 personnel.

Moving beyond standard race breakdowns, the show offers a front-row seat to the high-stakes world of the Formula 1 paddock, from team analysis & technical breakdowns to the unfiltered banter of the pit wall.

High Performance Racing delivers the insider perspectives and uncovered moments that the cameras miss, straight from those who have built careers in the most competitive sport in the world.

Otmar may not be in this week’s episode… but somehow he still made it in. 😂

We held the fort for our Austrian GP preview, but we couldn’t let the episode go by without checking in on Otmar — even if it was only via phone screen.

Expect Ferrari predictions, Williams chat, Schumacher what-ifs, Bullsh*t Corner… and a very questionable dad joke.
