In this episode of the Everything Trackside Podcast, we’re joined by Brandon Burgess — better known as Full Time Formula — the fan who attended every single Formula 1 race in one season on a £20,000 budget.
Brandon takes us through how he turned a lifelong dream into reality, travelling the world while working full-time and documenting the entire journey across social media.
We discuss:
- How he planned and funded a full F1 season
- The biggest cost-saving tips for attending races
- The reality of travelling to 24 Grands Prix in one year
- His experience balancing work, travel, and content creation
We also dive into:
- The most expensive and cheapest races on the calendar
- The best circuits for fans and atmosphere
- What it’s really like inside the F1 paddock
- The challenges of constant travel, jet lag, and minimal sleep
Plus, Brandon shares how his content journey took off — growing a huge audience on TikTok and Instagram — and how it’s led to becoming Formula 1’s first-ever season pass holder in 2026.
We also get his thoughts on:
- The current F1 regulations and fan reaction
- The evolution of race weekends and fan experience
- And his predictions for the future of Formula 1
🎯 Whether you're planning your first Grand Prix or dreaming of following the full calendar, this episode is packed with insight, tips, and inspiration.
