Why Sky Sports Formula 1 Presenter Natalie Pinkham Can’t Sleep

Natalie Pinkham has been presenting F1 on Sky Sports for a decade.

In 2021 Natalie made history by becoming the first woman to commentate on a Formula 1 session on British television when she led Sky’s commentary of first practice at the 2021 Bahrain Grand Prix.

In 2022 Natalie dreamt up and put on a now annual festival Flackstock, in honour of her late friend Caroline Flack to celebrate Caroline’s life and raise awareness of those with mental health issues. In this pod Georgie and Natalie talk about their boarding school days together, why F1 needs Lewis Hamilton, misogyny in sport television, mum guilt and why we must keep talking about mental health.
