  • Why motorsport needs their own Snoop Dogg
    Aug 14 2024

    Nobody is emailing Oz or Lins all day and long may that continue (well, for another week at least)


    You couldn't miss the unofficial Olympic mascot that is Snoop this past couple of weeks and motorsport needs its own version. Or maybe Jeff Goldblum? Let's have both.


    And Oz and Lins throw together the brands they would love to bring into motorsport - if they had no limits on budgets, conflicts or old school advertising rules.


    PSA: can everyone continue to limit their emails when they come back from Summer Break, please? Cheers.

  • Pre-grid hype shows & why Monzo needs to get into F1
    Aug 7 2024

    It's finally F1 Summer Break and you can't wrestle Lins's swimsuit out of her cold, dead hands until September.


    We talk pre-grid shows, why F1 could use a bit of Olympics Celine Dion magic (who couldn't?) and why consumer banking brands are flocking to F1, taking over from the investment banks of yore. It's more fun than it sounds, honest.

  • 2- vs 4-wheel brands & running with Alex Albon
    Jul 31 2024

    Oz has finally wrapped up the Formula E season, and confesses to 'borrowing' something from Driver's World Champion Pascal Wehrlein. Lins has just been enjoying the sunshine, post British GP, TBH.


    We dig into how two-wheel brands activate in motorsport vs 4-wheel - and why it's probably easier to do things with fewer wheels.


    And we give props to Williams F1 for their incredible fan engagement events - including 199 people chasing Alex Albon around a London park, all in the name of protein.


    Ryan Reynolds gets a shoutout too, because: Ryan Reynolds.

  • Beauty brands, Rolex & Forbes highest paid racing drivers
    Jul 24 2024

    Oz (professionally trained make-up artist, don't you know?) eulogises on why she loves the latest trend for beauty brands jumping into motorsport partnerships. Lins doesn't necessarily agree. Sorry about that.


    And who's the big daddy when it comes to the highest paid athletes in motorsport, according to Forbes at least? And yes, big daddy is the correct term as not one woman appears in the list. Ever. Since 1990. *sigh*

  • Is this the worst motorsport movie title in history?
    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

  • 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.)


    Link partyyyy

  • What is working in motorsport really like?
    Jun 28 2024

    Oz shares her love of the Thursday F1 Driver Fashion Moment™ in the paddock, Lins shares her disdain for one driver's most recent fashion faux pas and we announce inaugural Favourite Person of the Week.
