Podcast 169: Post 2014 Formula 1 season talk with Photo Ace Jamey Price

Schedules finally allow Jim and Robin a chance to discuss the last few Grands Prix of the 2014 Calendar with their good friend Jamey Price, a pro shooter. More from Jamey at jameypricephoto.com.

We learn about the real tension between Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton, the drivers behavior in press conferences (good and bad) and what Abu Dhabi is like as a track.

Jamey also shares the difference between the teams pit garages from the perspective of the lens and whether big screens are really necessary for the drivers while in the cars.

That really just gets the conversation going, because we also dive into Italy and Russia, the race wasn’t in Sochi after all.

Podcast 168: Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2014

Podcast 161: Belgian Grand Prix 2014

In this belated coverage (again) we cover the happy occasion of what delayed us in the first place and dig into the crazy, action packed news that preceded the Grand Prix; silly season is certainly in full swing. The race itself was thrilling and brought on much more discussion, and frankly, more consensus than we expected. And a sarcastic Fun with Cars first: we talk about F1 2014 sound! Of course, there’s always time for listener feedback and predictions. Visit http://funwithcars.com for more.
