Warning: This episode might make you rethink what it takes to start a Formula One team — and it’s crazier than you think.

Ever wonder what chaos, cash crunches, and last-minute disasters brewing behind the race track look like? Kunal and Soumil take you on a wild ride through the hidden struggles of new F1 teams, from Virgin’s fuel tank fiasco to Lola’s sponsor-driven panic. Spoiler: It’s a miracle any team makes it to the grid.

You’ll discover:

Why the “new kid on the block” challenge is higher than ever with Cadillac and Audi entering in 2026

The insane hurdles teams face like assembling cars on track and managing global logistics in real-time

How funding missteps and last-minute sponsor dramas nearly derail dreams before they start

The bizarre stories that make even the most seasoned fans say, “No way!”
This isn’t just about racing; it’s about chaotic brilliance, epic fails, and the guts needed to go from zero to Formula One hero.

If you’ve ever thought racing was just about speed, think again—this episode proves it’s a full-on war of attrition, innovation, and caffeine-fueled strategy.
