Description

Why was the gusty wind that hit Baku such a challenge for the drivers? And why are some cars more sensitive to wind than others?


Gary Anderson joins Edd Straw to explain all on this week's edition of The Race F1 Tech Show, and also to shed light on where Red Bull's recent gains have come from, and whether they could also be evident at upcoming tracks - in particular Singapore.


Gary also tackles listener questions on zero sidepods, 'cake tins', and mechanical grip.
