is this show about racing or politics?

Probably everyone wonders why the F1 schedule is the way it is. The "F1 Explains" podcast has a really good episode on this. My head was spinning a bit after listening to it.

Off topic, my apologies, but Mexico City is Subtropical Highland, and I heard another podcast call Austin a desert as well. Austin and San Antonio and miles and miles around it is classified as "Humid Subtropical." I live in a mile high Desert (Sonoran) called Albuquerque. The joke if F1ever had a race in Albuquerque would be, "How many F1 cars do you think will get stolen?"
