F1 Japanese GP recap + Tariff Trouble: Imports on Ice?

From Suzuka victories to international volatility, this week’s episode hits every gear in the world of cars and motorsport.

We kick things off with a breakdown of the 2025 Japanese Grand Prix—where Max Verstappen finally notched his first win of the season and McLaren proved they’re real title contenders. We’ll unpack the drama, pit lane controversies, and Kimi Antonelli’s historic debut stint.

Then we dive into the escalating situation with automotive tariffs. With new import penalties looming, major manufacturers like Jaguar are putting the brakes on shipping cars to the U.S. What does this mean for luxury buyers, classic collectors, and anyone looking to import something special? We explore the ripple effect on pricing, availability, and what buyers need to know before these changes hit full force.

To wrap it up, we scan the horizon for key market trends—from EV values to which car segments are heating up or cooling off—and share some real-world insights for car enthusiasts and market watchers alike.
