NASCAR insiders revealed what the organization can learn from Formula One as it heads into the 2025 season. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=50wLr4UqrEo">On The Teardown podcast,</a> Jeff Gluck and Jordan Bianchi of The Athletic shared their thoughts on what Formula One does well that could improve NASCAR. 



“There’s a lot more media interest in F1. There’s hundreds of reporters there, they’re from all over the world, the interest level is so much higher. So there’s more of a demand to get content from the F1 races when people go,” Gluck said. “You see what happens in F1 when their athletes talk. Their drivers pretty much talk three times a weekend. They have a media day the day before they get on track where every single driver talks and most of the team principles talk. If it’s not in a formal session that is done by the FIA like the formal press conference, then they talk at their team hospitality.

“You want somebody, you want a driver and need to ask them a question, you’re going to get them. Then every single driver talks after qualifying, and then every single driver talks after the race. They could crash out on Lap 2, they talk. They could qualify last, they talk, they have to. You’re hearing from these guys all the time.”

Bianchi would like to see the NASCAR drivers show off their personalities. “Let them speak their mind,” he said. “I do feel like in this day and age in NASCAR, there’s so much ‘let’s not go down that road’ or ‘let’s not do that. …When you let these guys be the personalities, there’s a lot of great personalities in this sport that just don’t get showcased or don’t let allowed to come out. When the cameras are off, it’s like ‘Man, these guys are great.’



“I wish they could see how some of these drivers interact with us or fans or whomever away from it because it’s much different, and I think it grows. If the idea is to have superstars in your sport, you’ve got to put them in a position to be allowed to be superstars and part of that is showing a personality.”



The 2024 Formula One season (or the 2024 Formula One World Championship) ended on Dec. 8, and Max Verstappen won his fourth world title. Back in August, NASCAR star Kyle Larson<a href="https://www.on3.com/pro/news/max-verstappen-responds-to-kyle-larson-claim-that-hes-the-better-driver/"> claimed he’s a better overall driver</a> than Verstappen.
