EP 131 - Britain

<p></p><p>Strap in and crack open a lukewarm can of supermarket own-brand cola, because <em>The Monkey Seat</em> is back — just in time for the <em>British Grand Prix</em>!</p><p>Tom and Karl return to their mics (and questionable opinions) after <em>accidentally ghosting</em> the Austrian Grand Prix. Was it scheduling? Was it laziness? Was it because Karl got lost in a multi-storey car park? We may never know. But they’re back now, and ready to pretend they never left.</p><p>In this episode, the lads dive into all the Silverstone shenanigans — home heroes, hydraulic heartbreaks, and more Union Jacks than a Coronation street party. They hand out their now-famous <strong>Driver of the Day</strong> awards (no one agrees, as usual), and crown the ultimate <strong>Dick of the Day</strong> – a prestigious honour for the biggest muppet on the grid. Or possibly in the commentary box.</p><p>It’s banter over breakdowns, nonsense over nuance, and the kind of chaotic race recap that makes Sky F1’s coverage look like a TED Talk. Live reactions, fan interactions, and more detours than a British road trip – if it’s serious F1 you’re after, <em>Grid Talk</em> exists. If you want vibes and very little journalistic integrity, you’ve found the right pit lane.</p><p>Catch the guys trying to act professional over on <em>Grid Talk</em> @gridtalkuk across all socials.</p><p>For actual motorsport coverage, head to <a href="https://f1chronicle.com" target="_new" rel="noopener">f1chronicle.com</a>, and for more slightly better-prepared F1 chat, visit <a href="https://linktr.ee/gridtalkuk" target="_new" rel="noopener">linktr.ee/gridtalkuk</a>.</p><p>Listen to <em>The Monkey Seat</em> on Spotify, Apple Music, Pocket Casts, YouTube, Anchor, Castbox, Radio Public, TuneIn, Breaker… or just yell into a traffic cone and hope for the best.</p><p></p>
