Will rules of engagement change for Oscar + Lando? - 2025 United States GP Preview with Jolyon Palmer + Rob Smedley
12 Oct 2025
Tom Clarkson is joined by former Renault driver and F1TV commentator, Jolyon Palmer, and ex-Ferrari race engineer, Rob Smedley, to discuss the big talking points ahead of this weekend’s United States Grand Prix. With just six races and three F1 Sprints to go this season, only 22 points separate championship leader Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris. Now that McLaren have wrapped up the Constructors’ title, will we see a different approach from Oscar and Lando in their fight to become World Champion? Mercedes are expected to confirm George Russell and Kimi Antonelli as their driver line-up for 2026 very soon. Jolyon and Rob share their thoughts on how long those contract negotiations have taken for George and what his long-term future might look like. And a year since Charles Leclerc led Carlos Sainz to a sensational 1-2 in Austin, Ferrari are still searching for their first Grand Prix victory this year. Rob provides fascinating insight into what it’s like being at the team's Maranello factory when things aren’t going well and how they can return to winning ways.
