We look ahead to the resumption of the Formula 1 season after the August break by picking our nine key storylines for the rest of the campaign in the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast.

Mark Hughes and Ben Anderson join Edd Straw to tee up what should be a dramatic final 10 races of the season, which starts off with a pair of double-headers at Zandvoort and Monza, then Baku and Singapore.

McLaren's constructors' championship bid and Red Bull's development battles - along with the impact on Max Verstappen's future - are top of the bill. There's also a look at how the work going on in the background on 2025 and 2026 could play a role in what we see across the rest of the year.

The emerging George Russell versus Lewis Hamilton battle at Mercedes and Sergio Perez's precarious position are also tackled, along with the need for one midfield team in particular to raise its game.

We also look at Ferrari's battles with porpoising, the ever-newsworthy Alpine team and the prospects of Williams starting to turn its off-track progress into more tangible results.
