At Stripping the Dipping, we pride ourselves on sharing a broad range of perspectives from across the motorsport community.

Ziv Knoll is one half of Belgium's commentary dream team. He and Pierre Van Vliet cover Formula 1, Indycar and Le Mans. But his journey into the world of elite motorsport was unorthodox to say the least.

In this episode, you'll find out how a diamond dealer, became the proprietor of one of the most successful French language F1 new websites ever ( @F1iTV ) - and how, after successfully selling the business, Ziv re-entered the online world with his website humansideofracing.com.

What makes a great commentator? Why does it seem other F1 journalists are afraid to rock the boat? What's it like to race an F1 car around Spa? Who's going to fill the Mercedes seat vacated by Lewis Hamilton? Indycar vs. F1?
