Canada Eh! Will The Man Cubs Overthrow The King of the Jungle?!

šŸŽ™ļø This week, 2 Soft Compounds shifts focus slightly - from apexes to apertures - as Rick and Paul sit down with 25-year-old F1 photographer Alexis Perrin. From dodging marshals to getting that perfect Hamilton shot, Alexis gives us a behind-the-scenes look at life in the pitlane.Ā 

šŸ‡ØšŸ‡¦ Rick, Paul and Alexis also preview the Canadian Grand Prix, home of unpredictable weather and unforegiving walls. And the hot topic this week - the rise of F1’s new generation - Norris, Piastri and Leclerc. These three are no longer just quick - they’re adopting Verstappen’s merciless mentality. The 'cubs' as Paul calls them, are starting to circle the reigning king of the jungle, making every wheel-to-wheel battle feel like a changing of the guard. 🦁

Is this the year we see the psychological dynamic of the grid flip? Get the low down only on 2 Soft Compounds!
