Autosport Podcast: Abu Dhabi GP review
The latest edition of the Autosport Podcast reflects on the 2024 F1 season finale and McLaren's first constructors' championship victory for 26 years
Ben Hunt and Jonathan Noble close out the 2024 Formula 1 season as they review the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Together, they look back on Lando Norris' dominant victory and with it, McLaren's first constructors' championship since 1998.
The pitfalls the team had to face during the race are assessed, including Oscar Piastri being spun out on the opening lap and whether McLaren has been the best team across the season, alongside analysis of Charles Leclerc's 16-place comeback to get on the podium.
There's also a discussion on Pierre Gasly sealing sixth in the constructors' table for Alpine, as well as looking ahead to the Young Driver Test and the potential for a five-team title fight in 2025.
