Race Strategy Deep Dive

This week Matt takes us on a deep dive into the topic of race strategy. He does this with the help of two members of the Oracle Red Bull Racing team, Principle Strategy Engineer Hannah Schmitz, and Head of Race Strategy Will Courtenay. For the entire season Matt is embedded with Max Verstappen, Christian Horner and the Red Bull Racing Formula 1 team. He’ll be in the pits and in the garage, with the drivers and in the factory, at the debriefs and the strategy session. Each week, Matt will share insider stories and updates with Rick in the studio.  Get involved with the show!  Email us: theinsidetrack@bbc.com  Follow us on social media: Instagram: @theinsidetrack_podcast TikTok: @theinsidetrack_pod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theinsidetrack_podcast This podcast is produced by BBC Studios, a commercial company that is wholly owned by the BBC.
