2023 Formula 1 USGP Recap: Boots and Disqualifications

This week on the I Give An F1 podcast, Allison and Lynnette cover all of the events they went to leading up to the weekend.

Wednesday was a blast covering the Kraken x Williams Fan Zone in downtown Austin, where they got to meet Logan Sargeant and listen in on a Q&A session with Alex Albon. Later that afternoon they headed to the Circiut of the Americas track for a food and beverage preview featuring some of Austin's great BBQ, and chefs. Thursday, it was time to head to a crowded, but exciting, Pit Lane Walk and then Allison and Lynnette split-up to cover two evening events. One with Aston Martin, and the other being a live podcast recording hosted by Lawrence Barretto.

It was the first sprint race held at the USGP, so all the action started on Friday with Charles Leclerc taking pole position for Sunday's race. The race was a doozy and brought much excitement per usual, as well as late disqualifications of Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc due to what the FIA considered an illegal car. That also meant that Logan Sargeant, Formula 1's only American driver scored his first points in F1.

Mercedes, Ferrari, McLaren, and Aston Martin all had similar pace this weekend meaning we are in for some good fights as we near the end of the seasons.

The coverage after the race focused on a lot of booing on the podium, and

Lynnette and Allison also cover the latest news including ASAP Rocky and Puma collab, the NFL takeover of Alpine, and the maximum fine for the drivers being raised to 1 million dollars.

All of this and more on this weeks episode.
