Episode 61 - F1 is Back! Testing. Testing.

What’s new, what’s old and what do drivers, physios, performance coaches and teams need to do over these next 3 days.

Bahrain testing is underway, and the boys delve into the key things that drivers would have been preparing for leading into the testing days, and what they and their performance coaches need to work on when there from warm up regime to getting to know the dynamics of the team. Plenty to get right, ready for Round 1!

It’s also the year of the Rookie, and having worked extensively in the junior series and F1 the boys give great insight into how to make the jump up to F1.
