Notes:

On the first official episode of Grid Walk, Nicole and Briana attempt to contain their excitement about the upcoming 2023 Formula 1 season. Just because it is still the F1 off-season doesn’t mean they don’t have any F1 topics to discuss!

Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) President Mohammed Ben Sulayem tweets his thoughts about a potential $20 Billion evaluation of F1 and Formula One Group/Liberty Media wasn’t pleased.

Nicole brings us “Gossip Grid”; Charles Leclerc, Pierre Gasly, and Esteban Ocon were all spotted during Paris Fashion Week. What does this tell us about the status and importance of Formula 1 drivers? Alex Albon can’t live without Chipotle or his Crocs and Lando Norris was on the cover of British GQ Hype. It seems like Shakira is a fan of the Scuderia Ferrari Formula 1 team!

There are few things Briana loves more than talking tires. Nicole gives her a challenge when discussing the upcoming Pirelli tire testing (with teams Mercedes AMG F1, Aston Martin F1, and Alpha Tauri) without using a few crucial words (such as “Test” and “Soft”).

MoneyGram Haas F1 Team finally announced their livery launch date! Nicole and Briana speculate what will the MoneyGram Haas F1 Team livery look like and why did it take MoneyGram Haas F1 Team so long to announce their launch.

Lastly, Briana gives “Yellow Sector Notes,” so we can complete a full lap around the paddock making a pitstop at every F1 teams’ garage. Max Verstappen installed WHAT on his private plane? Who does George Russell want to skydive with? What’s the status of the Alfa Romeo F1 Team Principal? Why was it a disappointing Sunday for an Aston Martin driver?

The finale of the first season of F1 Academy is the perfect reason for a special bonus episode of Grid Walk!

F1 Academy had their final race of 2023 in Austin during the weekend of F1’s United States Grand Prix and Marta García was crowned the first F1 Academy champion! Briana and Nicole give a recap of the inaugural F1 Academy season. Who wins Grid Walk’s F1 Academy prediction competition?

Briana and Nicole discuss if the first season of F1 Academy can be considered a success. Was this year of F1 Academy supposed to happen? How can F1 Academy prove the doubters wrong? If a driver is “fast” in F1 Academy does this mean they will be “fast” in another racing series?

Well F1 Academy is already “feeding” its first driver into another series!! F1 Academy champion Marta Garcia has been announced as a driver for Prema Racing in the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine (FRECA). What is FRECA? Why is this announcement about Marta Garcia moving to FRECA such a HUGE deal? What can we infer from how quickly F1 Academy made this announcement? In what ways is FRECA incentivizing teams to have a female driver?

It is no secret that in order to be a driver in motorsports it requires A LOT of financial backing. How is F1 demonstrating their belief in the value of F1 Academy as it moves into the 2024 season? Will F1’s new subsidizing strategy help more drivers get access to motorsports?

Briana and Nicole share their hopes for the second year (and beyond) of F1 Academy. How will having consistent live broadcasts affect the fanbase of F1 Academy? With the F1 Academy 2024 schedule aligning with the F1 schedule, will fans see more crossover content with drivers? What F1 teams will show their support for F1 Academy (beyond the sponsorship requirement F1 has created)?

Notes:

WELL THIS IS A SURPRISE! Daniel Ricciardo has been announced as an immediate replacement of Nyck de Vries at Scuderia Alpha Tauri. While your regularly scheduled Grid Walk episode will be out on Thursday this news meant for an EMERGENCY BONUS EPISODE!

As a Daniel Ricciardo super fan, Nicole, and Daniel Ricciardo skeptic, Briana, it was crucial to discuss the news of Oracle Red Bull Racing letting Scuderia Alpha Tauri borrow their reserve driver for the remainder of the F1 Season.

While many F1 fans speculated about this announcement, did any F1 fans expect it so soon? Maybe F1 fans should be less surprised based on Oracle Red Bull Racing’s history with how they change their F1 drivers? Should Daniel Ricciardo fans be excited about his return to the grid? Does this make the remainder of the season for Yuki Tsunoda and Daniel Ricciardo just a battle for Sergio Perez’s Oracle Red Bull Racing seat? Should Sergio Perez be nervous? How will Daniel Ricciardo do at the Hungarian Grand Prix?
