This weel we have a special guest. Chris Balfe editor of Pitpass.com came on the show and talked about the last race and all the F1 teams.

We also look forward to the Canadian GP.
It is a longer show than we would normaly do, but Chris is a very interesting guy and its well worth listening to

I have just finished listening to this, 2nd, Grand Prix Show and found it very interesting. I go to Pitpass every day for updates on the Formula 1 world and also the A1 GRAND PRIX, which I think is going to be a big success.
I will certainly return after the Canadian Grand Prix to hear what you have to say.
Best wishes.

Got the link to your show from Pitpass and I really enjoyed it , it’s a treat to listen to genuine enthusiasts instead of the usual collection of cynical pro’s
I particularly enjoyed hearing Chris Balfe’s comments on the teams and drivers.(great Bloke!)
Being a Williams and Webber fan I was hoping to get his, and your, take on his performances this year
Is he overdriving to compensate for a poor chassis? or is he just a bit wild?. Nick seems to stay within the limits of the car and has achieved more by letting the race come to him rather than taking Webbers approach of attack
Anyway I’ll be back for more and I wish you guys every success for the show

Wonderful to listen to people in the know . . . please make this more available to us in the States.

Hi Dennis, Cameron here, one of the principals at The Podcast Network. Please let us know how you’d like the GP Show to be “more available” in the US.

Fred -I think Webber is just taking his time to settle in at Williams, Nick seems to fit in better
Michael and Dennis - thanks!

to cameron reilly . . .
What I meant was getting linked from espn, sports networks and the like. If such is already the case, I am sorry to cause confusion. I just have not seen The Podcast Network mentioned elsewhere.
Regarding Indy, has anyone looked at the wheels?
I eagerly await your Indy release.

Dennis, thanks for the clarification! No, we aren’t getting linked from those places yet but it’s definitely something we should investigate! Thanks for the suggestion!
