Ep61 2026 F1 Preview. Is Ferrari Already Winning 2026? with Simone Scanu

Is Ferrari back? Is the Newey era already over before it's begun? And what on earth is Overtake Mode? Dianne Bortoletto is joined by Simone Scanu — co-founder of real-time F1 telemetry app Formula Live Pulse — and co-host Ciara Gillan to break down everything you need to know before lights out in Melbourne. In this episode we cover Bahrain and Barcelona testing verdicts, Ferrari's jaw-dropping exhaust wing innovation and why other teams can't simply copy it, and Honda and Aston Martin's testing nightmare — battery failures and a fraction of the mileage of the top teams. We also get into the 2026 power unit explained in plain English, the difference between Boost Mode and Overtake Mode, what Lift and Coast actually means for racing, and whether we'll see more or fewer on-track battles as a result. We talk about where every team stands heading into Melbourne — Red Bull and Max Verstappen (never count him out), Williams who missed Barcelona entirely but showed up in Bahrain, Cadillac as the completely unknown quantity, and sole rookie Arvid Lindblad at Racing Bulls. We also share our honest take on Drive to Survive Season 8 — is it getting too staged? — plus an update on Australian GP logistics given the disruption in the Middle East, and a shoutout to the AGPC for naming Turn 6 at Albert Park after two prominent women in motorsport to mark International Women's Day on race day. Testing mileage at a glance: Ferrari and Mercedes completed over 20,000 km, Red Bull over 10,000 km across four power units, Audi around 5,000 km, and Honda and Aston Martin a concerning 2,000 km.
