With F1 pre-season in full swing, Damon and Johnny return with another episode of Stay On Track, and this time they’re discussing car launches and testing from a driver’s perspective. They share some weird and wacky stories from their own careers, including the time Damon was almost sacked during a car launch and the time Johnny inadvertently found himself part of a space opera! They also discuss how testing has changed over the years, and debate whether the current restrictions on testing have limited opportunities for drivers to experiment with new driving techniques - something that could be a big factor this year, with the new regulations…  Get your 7-day free trial to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today [https://www.patreon.com/cw/TheRace/membership] and enjoy bonus F1 podcasts and ad-free listening. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
