F1 NATION: Rob Smedley joins the podcast crew to preview the Mexican Grand Prix
Five races remain in this electric Formula 1 season and the Mexico City Grand Prix is up next, so who’s favourite to take the win? On this week's F1 Nation podcast, hosts Tom Clarkson and Natalie Pinkham enlist the help of ex-Jordan, Ferrari and Williams engineer Rob Smedley to get the lowdown on this weekend's race.
Rob is an F1 data expert having been race engineer at Jordan then Ferrari for a decade before joining Williams as their Head of Vehicle Performance. And on the pod he harnesses all that knowledge and experience to try to work out whether this is Max Verstappen’s Mexican Grand Prix to lose – or Lewis Hamilton’s weekend instead.
