Why Otmar Said No to Cadillac, The Truth About Massa vs Alonso & Your Questions Answered (E27)

About this episode

You sent the questions, the guys answered them! And it's the first time Otmar has been trusted with a tablet. Rob finally answers the question he gets asked more than any other: what really happened to Felipe Massa after 2009? Was it the spring in Hungary, or was it Fernando Alonso? Rob was on the other end of the radio, and he's got the test data to settle it. Otmar reveals the Christmas phone call from Michael Andretti asking him to be team principal, why he said no, why they never came back, and the only team he'd ever be TP for again. He also opens up on the most stressful period of his F1 career: standing between Lawrence Stroll and the rest of the team. And he shares the Toto Wolff line about pressure, diamonds and burst pipes. Plus, the greatest question ever submitted ("what do?"), Rob discovering Google Docs in real time, the best drivers never to make F1, the guys' favourite drivers of all time, Otmar's 1991 Jordan 7Up jacket, and their best F1 celebrity moments, including the day Jake got stood up by Kim Kardashian in Monaco.
