F1 podcast: The Final Sector explores Russell’s downturn, driver market and much more

Our editor, Mat Coch, is joined by our paddock journalist, Thomas Maher, as the two discuss the impending end of the title race and just where it may have gone wrong for George Russell.

On top of that, the team looks at the unfilled seats on the driver market and the unusual problem facing Racing Bulls, particularly around the place of Liam Lawson at the team.

While FOM and the FIA have been saying the season is due to finish as planned in Qatar and Abu Dhabi, there has yet to be an official confirmation of how the rest of the season will look, as teams, fans and media seek to finalise their travel plans.
