In a strange turn of events, there's an actual variety of opinions on Monaco for a spell, some very privileged stories and another chance for Nate to rub the Padel win in Chris's face. Plus another Padhocbuster to get stuck intoLearn more abou

Love me tender

May 27th, 2024 8m

Laurence, Nate and Chris find themselves on a tender in the Monaco harbour at the end of the grand prix weekend and spot a little window for the shortest episode they've ever done. But there's still time for a good jokeLearn more about your ad

When Ed Sheeran met Nate in Miami

May 12th, 2024 23m 27s

Miami was a fun race anyway but Nate had the weekend of his life when some guy called Ed Sheeran invited him to watch an Ipswich Town football match with him. This is a story that might never be toppedLearn more about your ad choices. Visit po

Who did the British Embassy call on in China?

Apr 23rd, 2024 37m 1s

Lawrence is back from China (as in, literally just back) and fighting the jet lag so is very giggly. Nate's worried F1 is dying, and Chris has the latest PadHocBusterLearn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Big apologies from the Big Boss

Apr 10th, 2024 27m 48s

So work got in the way, and then so did travel, and somehow we found ourselves episode-less when we all headed to Australia. But now we're back from Japan and Nate has a new nickname, while Lawrence doesn't understand the greatest game on podca

Lewis Hamilton + Ferrari = This episode

Feb 2nd, 2024 23m 35s

Lewis Hamilton will be a Ferrari driver in 2025. We don't usually do straight reaction episodes, but this was big enough that we found time to do that even when Chris had planned to be off in Rome. Find out if Lawrence was witnessing contracts

The RB stands for 'rubbish branding'

Jan 25th, 2024 26m 8s

WARNING: This is a very moan-filled episode, but Visa Cash App RB just seems to set us off in that direction. Chris has a couple of zingers, Nate's joke is deep and meaningful, and Lawrence (without his microphone) finds it very hard to comment

Our 2023 F1 awards show

Dec 28th, 2023 59m 20s

For the first time since we last did one, it's a season review where we hand out a few awards. Or we roughly discuss a few topics and don't actually award anything to anyone, while the absolute highlight of the year very nearly gets totally for

Nate dropped a clanger after his Vegas high

Dec 21st, 2023 1h 3m

Finally getting round to chatting about Las Vegas adventures, which includes probably Nate's coolest story ever, but he has since ruined it all. Chris explains how Gasly tried to kill him, and Lawrence went to Venice with Kimi (not that one)Le

Are you Sad-Hoc or Glad-Hoc the season is over?

Nov 29th, 2023 31m 39s

Vegas became impossible to record at and then Nate decided he'd rather be in Tampa than Abu Dhabi, but all three are finally able to go over the final race from three different timezones. Chris has a great Mercedes story, and Lawrence really do

Tweeting rumours and making humours

Nov 1st, 2023 42m 39s

Lawrence is definitely here, and it's not just Chris talking about all the gifts he got from being in Mexico, or Nate taking absolute liberties with his 60-second review. They also address *that* paddock rumour (spoiler: there isn't one)Learn

An awesome night in Austin

Oct 20th, 2023 54m 39s

We actually went and did a live episode in Austin and there were real people who came to listen. So get ready for a lot of shouting, a terrible joke, but a lot of fun at Mayfair with more than a little help from COTA. Nate forgets the drivers h

The Pad-Hoc is coming to Austin

Oct 11th, 2023 35m 26s

Nate, Lawrence and Chris were finally all at a race together in Qatar, so naturally they only actually recorded once they had long since left. Chris finds out Barretto's net worth, Nate doesn't do well in the heat, and did you not see in the ti

Jeopardy in Tokyo

Sep 19th, 2023 20m 11s

Apologies in advance for the car crash that was caused by Chris having the wrong mic selected AND running out of laptop battery. Plus Lawrence was on his way to Singapore airport, but there's a bit of an episode in there, mainly held up by Nate

Premonitions and poorly-ageing tweets

Aug 25th, 2023 26m 18s

Chris appears to have jinxed Daniel Ricciardo at Zandvoort, and Nate's not happy about it. Lawrence is also predicting something pretty crazy ahead of the rest of the weekend, and the episode from a random local pizzeria all ends weirdly...Le

’I’m at a Lossi for words’

Aug 12th, 2023 50m 32s

Seeing as it's been so long, we figured all three together after Nate has overcome one of his biggest fears would be the best way to return with an episode. Barretto is now a married man, but once we acknowledge that then far too much F1 creeps

Apparently we should stick some knives in the ground

Jul 13th, 2023 39m 37s

You came here for Formula 1 chat and perhaps some insight into Daniel Ricciardo's return, but the big takeaway is a saying that only Lawrence knew. Nate also loses a year, and Chris laughs at ElvisLearn more about your ad choices. Visit podca

Barretto’s last episode?

Jun 21st, 2023 45m 57s

There's a very nervy Lawrence on today's show, despite an impressive sporting achievement against an F1 driver and Chris's own pathetic stag do story. To try and make him feel better, Nate insults the French, or the French Canadians, or maybe b

A 10.2 joke live in Monaco

May 28th, 2023 34m 34s

Lawrence makes an absolute mockery of the joke scoring system when confronted with an in-person episode in Monaco, that was recorded to the background of pizza and beer. Nate shares all of Danny Ric's secrets, and Chris declares his love for Ca

What’s the plural of Pad-Hoc?

May 21st, 2023 37m 19s

In the absence of Imola, we thought we'd do a show this Sunday in case you're that desperate for F1 content. Even though this is barely F1 content - there's MLB talk, IndyCar talk, gardening talk and eventually some Imola and Monaco talkLearn

I’m not going to get in the bin because I’ll fall asleep in it

May 10th, 2023 34m 13s

We wake up ESPN TV star Nate from a jet-lagged nap to record, and it shows. Lawrence was back first from Miami but loses it very early on, and Chris plugs a free hotel that made him feel like a total baller (thanks Grand Prix Grand Tours)Lear

We didn’t plan that, any of it

Apr 25th, 2023 26m 40s

It's a sprint episode talking about the sprint shootout before Chris sprints to the airport, and he's just enjoying himself far too much today. Lawrence makes strange noises, and Nate offers a chance to be on the podcast to a golfer. Any golfer

The 100th anniversary of our second episode

Apr 13th, 2023 36m 17s

Yeah we forgot to mention it for the last two attempts, but never mind. Lawrence is back, Nate's grudge against him is intensifying and Chris remembers annoying Pastor Maldonado by not knowing what happened to himLearn more about your ad choi

Fernando’s going to get some bad juju

Mar 23rd, 2023 37m 31s

Only Chris went to Jeddah and doesn't have that much to say about it, but he fails to defend himself from accusations he loves Red Bull's dominance. Nate is a TV star who listens to races on the radio, and Lawrence plays squash against a top-20
