JAMES BALDWIN

James has loved motorsport for all of his life. They say those that can't do, talk about it, so here he is - now at the helm of Lakeside Drive's F1 podcast. You'll also find him on other pods like The Race F1 Briefing, commentating at the Australian Grand Prix and hosting VIP's around the F1 world.

He has also hosted and produced the Extreme E podcast, Inside McLaren Applied podcast and shouts about WRC here.

A big fan of bringing new fans to Formula 1 and providing a different view to the mainstream channels - James is here to keep things on track!

CAMPY

Campy is like a fine wine. Best summed up by this podcast review: "Campy is like a young Mick Molloy with some serious respiratory issues. It takes a while to get use to his sniffing etc but now it is akin to my ceiling fan, it is just white noise."

The self-proclaimed F1 Prophet, Campy has a wealth of F1 knowledge and is known to lean heavily to the right in pretty much everything he does.

Partly responsible for the existence of this podcast, he is a big fan of saying it how it is, but also providing top tier entertainment in what can be a very serious F1 world.

FREYA

Freya brings a different perspective to the Lakeside Drive crew! As a professional psychologist, as well as a fully committed DR fan, she is able to dive deeper into the mindset around team decisions, driver reactions and why Campy actually exists.

Legends

These fellas are absolute legends. Strong opinions, aggressive arguing, witty comments, and great F1 news. I rely on only a couple F1 reporting sources to get me through the week as I’m an absolute nut for racing, and these guys are a must.

The perfect balance

☆☆☆☆☆

By far my favourite F1 podcast. I subscribe to a number of F1 podcasts but this is my go to. Campy is like a young Mick Molloy with some serious respiratory issues. It takes a while to get use to his sniffing etc but now it is akin to my ceiling fan, it is just white noise. In all honesty these blokes absolutely know their stuff and I continuous find myself agreeing to EVERYTHING Campy says from F1 through to Harry Potter. This scares me. This show is the perfect balance between in depth analysis and some mates having some fun with zero time for PC. Love your work boys. Keep it up.

Not your typical F1 Podcast (and that is a good thing)

☆☆☆☆☆

Imagine three drunk Australians giving a well reasoned F1 breakdown. This is not it. But if you’re looking for a fun, informative, and irreverent F1 podcast, this is it.
