In our final Formula1 podcast of the 2012 Formula1 season, Rishi Kapoor and I donned our tuxedos to come up with the '2012 Formula1 Podcast Awards'.

The credit for the concept and award categories goes to our avid listener Latesh Wakodkar, thank you! And as always, while the categories and nominations may seem standard, the eventual winners of course aren't. Now what's Formula1 without a little bit of humour from Rishi and myself!
Here's what is in store:
