If Formula One wasn’t dangerous enough, seven-time world champion Sir Lewis Hamilton faces the added risk of Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan potentially changing his tyres when F1 team Mercedes allows the accident-prone pals into the pit lane at the 2023 Monaco Grand Prix.
Ahead of the upcoming new 2024 season, Sky cameras follow the boys as they visit Monte Carlo for a new two-part series, Rob & Romesh vs F1, in which they hang out with Mercedes’ British drivers Hamilton and George Russell, along with team principal Toto Wolf, who puts them through their paces to see if they have what it takes to join the team.
We caught up with Ranganathan, 45, to find out…
What was it like working in the pit lane at the Monaco Grand Prix?
Those cars are worth so much money, but the guys in the pit lane were willing to let two morons have a go, which is mad. Rob was talking a lot of trash about how unflappable he is and how he could handle anything, but in the end he bottled it. The moments when his head goes are my favourite parts of these shows.
What else did you get up to in Monaco?
