The Team Principal Podcast: How to integrate a new driver into an F1 team 59:12

On the very first episode of his new show, The Team Principal Podcast , former Aston Martin and Alpine boss Otmar Szafnauer is joined by The Race's Ben Anderson to discuss how a team principal goes about integrating a new driver into a team. First, Otmar talks about Lewis Hamilton's switch from Mercedes to Ferrari and the role Scuderia boss Fred Vasseur will have played in helping the seven-time world champion settle over the winter. Otmar offers his thoughts on what he'd do if he was in Fred's shoes, and then contrasts that approach with the approach Mercedes boss Toto Wolff will have to adopt to help Hamilton's replacement - rookie Kimi Antonelli - settle into his new life as a full-time grand prix driver. Within the discussion, Otmar reveals the techniques and strategies he used in his own career, and explains why being able to adapt your approach to suit the unique personality of each driver is so important for a team principal. To round off the episode, Otmar casts an eye over 2025's driver pairings, giving his team principal's take on which of the duos will be the most harmonious, which he'd like to manage, and which he expects to provide fireworks...

We dive into the big talking point of Formula 1 pre-season as Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc drove the new Ferrari SF-25 for the first time at Fiorano today. Jon Noble joins Edd Straw moments after hearing Lewis Hamilton’s first full press conference as a Ferrari driver to explain why the claim he is “reinvigorated” holds water. Hamilton’s very obvious enthusiasm at being a Ferrari driver and confidence in it having everything it needs to be a world championship winner this year makes it very clear that he doesn’t for one moment regret leaving Mercedes. We also explain the approach Ferrari has taken with the new car, with Gary Anderson casting his expert technical eye over what we’ve seen of the SF-25 so far.
