F1’s 2026 Calendar in CHAOS: Qatar & Abu Dhabi Could Be CANCELLED

A new episode of Paddock Access is now live, with F1 photographer Kym Illman and journalist Jacky Martens taking you behind the scenes of the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.




In this episode, they break down Max Verstappen’s angry reaction after retiring with a car issue and the growing tension behind the scenes at Red Bull. Silverstone made one thing painfully clear: trust between Team Verstappen and Red Bull’s top management appears to be at an all-time low. It’s not the first time both sides have found themselves on opposite sides of the garage, and the talk of a “toxic situation” inside the team is only getting louder.




They also look at Christian Horner’s return to the paddock exactly one year after his absence, along with the biggest stories and key moments from the British Grand Prix. 




All that and more in the latest episode of Paddock Access.
