United by an amateurish and mostly uneducated love for Formula 1 and armed with a microphone, four everyday fans are on a mission to obnoxiously share their insights and opinions with everyone that will listen.
About the Show
Idiots of F1 is the (unofficial) F1 podcast that refuses to take itself seriously. No technical analysts, no inside sources, no paddock passes. No punches spared. Just four everyday fans who've been watching too much F1 and have developed very strong opinions about it. And for whatever reason, people are loving it!
Think Drive to Survive but if the hosts were your mates at the pub... after a few beers (allegedly). Almost every week (during season pending no international conflicts that cancel races), we break down the latest on and off-track news, controversy and gossip whilst quizzing each other into oblivion and arguing about things that definitely don't matter.
Now in Season 4, covering all 22 rounds of the 2026 Formula 1 season. Whether new to the track, a know-it-all who's seen it all (and is bored), or just an in-betweener, you're home. New episodes most Thursdays!
The Cast
Oli looks like the one in control. He isn't. He just knows how to make it feel that way. He sets the tone, asks the questions, and keeps things moving, but his real role is knowing exactly where to poke. A quiet prod here, a loaded question there, and suddenly the whole thing unravels. Stirring just enough to get Digby fired up, Ev confused and Tay picking sides. He's the host.
"I'm just here to control this shit show."
If there's outrage to be had, Digby's already there. He interrupts, challenges, and calls it exactly how he sees it, usually at the worst (but best) possible moment. He's not here for nuance. He's here to say what everyone's thinking but won't admit, pushing arguments just far enough to make things uncomfortable, but never quite crossing the line. He's the antagonist.
"I'm saying what everyone else is thinking."
Ev is the voice of reason. Or at least, that's what he'd tell you. He's the one attempting to break down the technical, the historical, and the "what actually happened" when everyone else is mid-argument. He can make complex F1 theory sound simple, or overly complex. Sitting somewhere between expert and enthusiast, he argues like both. He's the self-proclaimed expert.
"If you don't understand, that's not my fault."
Promoted from reserve driver to full-time seat, Tay's earned his place in the chaos. He plays both sides when it suits, calling out hypocrisy, backing strong takes and stepping in when things need challenging. He's the one most likely to have done some homework, or at least planned to. Not quite neutral, not quite the antagonist, but a fear of being seen as boring. He's the middle man.
"Didn't you say the exact opposite last week?"
