In this week’s episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Mithila and Kunal refrain from cracking too many Mclaren-Honda jokes as they discuss the world of Formula One as testing season kicks-off.

The ‘t-wing’ has been the talk of the paddock and the pre-season test in Barcelona. While most teams have one, Mercedes have gone and got themselves two.

Will the t-wing be outlawed, like the t-bone, and what about the shark-fin cover which seems more like an ugly whiteboard this season? The 2017 cars look sexy, no doubt, but get rid of these aero add-ons, please, say the team.

They also discuss the trigger for Williams-JCB partnership, Liberty Media’s liberty to Formula 1 teams for generating social media content, Fernando Alonso’s Red Bull Racing inspired helmet design and how RAI won Hamilton’s helmet design competition.

All of this and more in this week’s podcast that you can hear below.
