The 2026 Formula 1 season is here, and Mark Howard and Greg Rust are back to break down everything you need to know ahead of the new season.

Rusty and Howie dive into the biggest storylines heading into the new season — from new regulations and engine changes to Ferrari’s much-talked-about “upside-down wing”. They also unpack the arrival of Audi into Formula 1 with the Revolut F1 team, the introduction of a new 11th team with Cadillac, and what it all means for the future of the grid.

There’s also plenty of focus on the Aussie hope Oscar Piastri - and whether McLaren’s “Papaya Rules” will hold firm in 2026 - before the boys answer listener questions and reveal their predictions for the top three drivers of the season.

This special F1 season preview is brought to you by BP, technology partner of the Audi Revolut F1 team, with your chance to win a trip to the Singapore Grand Prix.
