F1 cars needing a software update before they can race? Honestly, put them in rice.
This week on Paddock 43, we unpack the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia—from the chaotic start at Sepang to the software bug that left cars struggling to move. What actually went wrong, how do the 2026 regulations fit into it, and why didn’t testing catch the problem?
Plus, Max Verstappen’s first win of the season, Kimi Antonelli’s growing championship lead, and all the paddock goss.
In this episode:
🏁 Max wins and George’s title hopes take another hit
🚩 Software failures, the FIA’s testing admission and why F1 needs to step up
🔋 What’s changing in the power-unit rules for 2027 and 2028
🏆 The maths behind Kimi’s championship advantage
💸 Aston Martin’s 2027 line-up and the reported Alonso and Stroll salary figures
🏎️ Lewis Hamilton backs Fred Vasseur amid Ferrari speculation
🇲🇾 Could Malaysia return to the calendar permanently?
And I’m heading to Singapore this weekend—please have the software sorted before I get there.
Should Sepang be back permanently? And how are you feeling about the new regulations? Let me know in the comments.

Salary figures discussed include media reports and estimates, rather than confirmed 2027 pay disclosures.
