  • Summary

  • The Rest is Motorsport opens the closed doors in Formula 1 and motorsport to talk about everything that happens off track. Hosted by Aurélie Donzelot and Lindsay Orridge, who have over 40 years experience between them working with drivers, race teams, the brands that sponsor them and the media outlets that break the news, they share their knowledge, opinions and insights about anything except the actual racing. From the best brand campaigns, to the lifestyle of the people who you don’t see on Drive To Survive, it’s time to lift the lid on this secretive gate-kept sport.

    Jul 17 2024

    🇬🇧 Well, inevitably, we both got Silverstoned but we both survived. Proud


    🤦🏼‍♀️ But wompwomp, this was the week that F1 decided to call their upcoming F1 movie... F1. What a time to be alive


    😕 Lonely Lando speaks for us all but don't worry, we've got great mates around us too


    🪭 Fans. Not those ones, motorsport fans. Why some F1 teams don't engage them well, and who does it best


    👕 Oz's t-shirt range coming soon to a store near you. Probably, maybe


    Notes


    Race Against Dementia


    See if you can spot the F1 logo on this movie poster


    See if you can spot the plot in this F1 movie teaser

Lins recounts an awkward Hollywood encounter and showcases her appalling knowledge of 99% of movies that have ever been madeOz and Lins lament how some of their best motorsport ideas have happened without them actually being involved and their favourite people of the week are revealedAlso we'd recommend you don't try to break into Lins's house in the night, cheers 🥂🌪️ VCARB X Twisters (2024)🤷🏼‍♀️ Just in case you don’t know who Glen Powell is either😈 Lotus F1 x Mad Max (2015)🛸 Renault F1 x Star Wars 40th anniversary (2017)🌌 Red Bull Racing x Star Wars (2005)💎 Jaguar F1 'lose' a diamond in Monaco (2004)🤓 Williams F1 x The King’s Man (2021)📱 Mercedes F1 Team x the WhatsApp button👨🏾‍🏫 Lewis Hamilton reads a bedtime story🍗 Lando Norris eats chicken🏍️ Lewis and Valentino Rossi swap F1 car and MotoGP bike (2019)😂 Just in case you don’t know who Alan Partridge is (shame on you) ❤️ Our artwork was kindly made for us by NOT Wieden + Kennedy🎧 Listen on your favourite player🎥 Watch on YouTube 👀 Send your questions to therestismotorsport@gmail.com, find Oz on Instagram @pandea and Lins on LinkedIn Hosted on Acast.

  • Motorsport PR nightmares vs. F1 fun times

    Motorsport PR nightmares vs. F1 fun times
    Jul 3 2024

    What happens when the sh*t hits the fan in motorsport? Erm... lots. (Ask us how we know)


    And why are so many motorsport brand partnerships boring these days? We demand more fun, despite the fact that most racing drivers are terrible comedians.


    Plus: our favourite Finn. Whatta guy.


    Hej ja kiitos (that's goodbye and thanks in Finnish, OK? OK.)


    Notes

    NASCAR x Liquid Death/ Crocs


    Valtteri Bottas x Uber Australia


    Nico and Carlos go water sliding in 2018


    Our artwork was kindly made for us by our pals at NOT Wieden + Kennedy (AKA the people who came up with 'Just Do It' for Nike, and they also rebranded Formula 1 a few years ago with their fancy new font and style). Yep, we fancy too.
