How does a Formula 1 team such as Williams find itself in a position where it can only field one car?

That, and the question of what can be done to prevent a repeat, is the focus of this edition of The Race F1 Tech Show, as host Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson unpack Williams's major predicament after Alex Albon's crash in Australian Grand Prix practice forced the team to withdraw its second entry.

As well as considering how Williams goes about repairing the damaged chassis in time for the Japanese GP, Straw and Anderson also discuss whether McLaren - which took its first podium of the season in Melbourne last weekend - is being held back by DRS issues and how encouraged Ferrari should be by its start to the 2024 season.

Plus, listen out for your questions on gearbox set-up, DRS in the V10 era, and the continuation of Mercedes' stuttering start to the campaign.
