Renault’s protest against Racing Point is the big technical story in Formula 1 right now, but why have the brake ducts become a focus of the case against the ‘Pink Mercedes’?

Race-winning Formula 1 technical director Gary Anderson reveals what’s so complicated about the unseen internals of brake ducts and the potential significance to the case.

He also delves into the wider topic of Formula 1’s long-running customer cars debate, and reveals a deal that almost happened with McLaren during his second spell at Jordan.

Ferrari’s struggles, the Mercedes supremacy, Red Bull’s instability and McLaren’s strong start are also discussed.
