The qualifying gods smile upon us before we dive into the weird world of F1 money, secret aerodynamic think tanks, and microwavable beef. Oh, and we solved all the world's energy problems. You're welcome.

Alt+F1 is a weekly Formula 1 podcast from your friends at Giant Bomb. We run down the twists and turns of Earth's fastest and most expensive urinating contest. Join us for race recaps, news from the wide world of racing and the latest on Pastor Maldonado.

This podcast is entirely worth it just for Drew's Werner Herzog impression.

(It sounds like, in those high-rolling hills, above all the lights, Werner Herzog had all of the skills.)

Great podcast, guys! Also, I just explained what "f1.cool" is to my roommate, which was fun.

Just one extra piece of information concerning the token system for the engines, if the modification is required because of security or reliability issues it does not count for token usage, only performance or other efficiency upgrades consumes tokens.

I highly recommend watching the WEC race this weekend if you're not raced-out after F1. Last year's race was fantastic.

Food City is a grocery store. There's several of them in my lovely city of Tucson, AZ and they carry mostly Hispanic food and stuff. There's one just around the corner from my house and I go there from time to time.

His name is Rio and he's racing in Sepang!

Along that racetrack twisting through Malaysia-land.

And when he drives he really shows you all he can.

Oh Rio, Rio, drive on for the Prix so Grand.

(I know Malaysia's not until October this year but I wasn't going to sit on this until then.)

Well, now I'll be singing this all weekend and people will be looking at me like I'm crazy.

@mrfrank88: These used to be Southwest Supermarkets, but Food City bought them out. That was back when the AM/PM was still open over there at Country Club & 22nd St.
