    Best F1 pod out there.
    Host knows her stuff and makes engaging. Great, more detailed companion to Drive 2 Survive

    Spice it up ladies
    Love that this is a female lead podcast, girl power!✊🏼 And I love that it’s educational but I think that there is a lot more that could be done to make it a little more exciting. The personalities seem very dry and quite boring honestly. In an oversaturated podcast market this particular one does not stand out very much. The sustainability stuff is especially boring as not everyone is super passionate about that. Hoping they find a way to spice it up a little!

    Best F1 podcast
    This podcast is my favorite F1 podcast, I love the mix of race info, engineering, sustainability and great guests. The women are very knowledgeable about the sport too. I’ve learned a lot!

    For the girls
    I love this show and the content provided. The only caveat I have is the vocal fry. Sometimes the conversation drifts into a whisper or is hard to hear while others speaking are coming in loud. I find myself having to adjust the volume. Ladies, you have beautiful voices. Just be aware of the vocal fry.

    Great Pod!
    These girls really know their stuff! I look forward to the show and love the consistency of releases and format in general with regular segments each episode. I would take away only one fraction of a star because one of the girls speaks as if there should be a period after every. single. word. Also, there is quite a bit of direct quoting, and I wish they would paraphrase instead. It has certainly broadened my knowledge of the sport, and created a great community of female fans!

    Mostly great!
    I really do love the info and differing perspectives on this podcast, easy and fun listen! Only thing that can be a tad annoying is on occasion they mention something political and clearly have a bias against conservatism. Seems unnecessary and off putting. Other than that I enjoy it!
  • djc1017
    Detailed, approachable, interesting content for any level of interest in F1
    Finally, a women-led podcast and community in the male-dominated world of F1! There’s no shortage of F1 content and podcasts available, but an unsurprisingly low amount of it is led by women. Each F1R the girls episode is filled with a great amount of details regarding tracks, race standings, deep dives on drivers or people in F1, and they’re breaking down the knowledge barrier to entry of enjoying this sport. It’s wonderful to have found a cool community of mostly women in F1!

    Does anyone read these reviews?
    As an F1 DTS convert, I appreciate that F1R the girls doesn’t judge me and owns their team biases too. Thank you for the podcast and for your Instagram, both are pure gold 🎤💧
  • Aubrey Ochoa
    Loveee this podcast
    Perfect combination of analysis/statistics and humor/drama. Feels like I’m being taught a lot of technicals about F1 that I wouldn’t otherwise know, but also hearing some funny takes about the drivers and teams. Definitely one of my fav F1 podcasts for sure.
  • Pengy_0612
    Yay!
    This podcast is truly sent from above. My boyfriend was really into F1 and I didn't really get it. But then I saw drive to survive on Netflix and if finally got me into it. Especially drama between the teams. Once I was all caught up, I started looking for something that was up to date on the going on events other than just the races because I'm generally new to the sport and need a little more tutelage on it. I found plenty of stuff done by males but some of the rhetoric really irritated me. But then! I found these lovely ladies. And I'm happy to say that after I listen to an episode I have so much more to talk about with my partner on this subject. And in turn it makes him happy because I'm showing interest in something he really loves. I actually feel I can hold my own and then some on F1 now during a conversation.
  • itsrachelc
    Loving this so far!
    Recently found this podcast and I’m still catching up but I’m loving it so far! The ladies keep it fun and informational about the races and what to expect. Sometimes a little biased for drivers I don’t really love but to each their own! 😂
  • alexXxandra
    So informative!
    This podcast is incredibly informative while also being so much fun! I have learned so much in just a few episodes and cannot wait to see what’s to come.
  • Ewikeruge
    Love it !
    I love the way you all speak on the races. Love how the episodes are structured and how lovely your conversations are. Keep up the great work!
  • SE Kinrade
    A fun show!
    I really like this podcast. The group are personable and easy to listen to. I find them really informative and good for a beginner, but lots of good info and a little bit of fun. I love the vibe.

    LOVE this podcast!! The girls do such a good job of balancing education, news, and fun parts of F1. I’ve always been interested in following F1, but found it overwhelming. Now I listen to every episode and get to bond with my brother over F1 too ❤️
  • therealdy7
    Strikes the right balance!
    Kudos to this group for providing insights that the casual fan can appreciate while also being enjoyable for those who know more about the sport. Some f1 podcasts can get too technical and dry. This just sounds like a group of f1 fans recapping the races!!
  • aramory
    Finally!
    Cannot stress how much I love this show. Firstly, it’s by women! Secondly, it’s about the racing, and not the gossip of the paddock. And lastly, but my favorite, it’s fair. Although the girls have their favorites, they talk about ALL the drivers. (Unlike the Hamilton Show, I mean F1 nation..) Instant fan.
  • orgy + piccolo = basson
    factual yet fun!
    These girls know what they are talking about. They make it easy to understand yet are detailed enough to give you all the deets!

    New fave F1 pod
    Love the energy of the hosts - they’re able to keep everything simple enough for a new fan to understand while still being detailed and specific enough for those more familiar with sport. Excited to see where the show goes!!
