  • S10 E1: Silverstone '93 - Hill's Heartbreak
    Jul 3 2024
    Season 10 of Bring Back V10s is here! Karun Chandhok and Edd Straw join Glenn Freeman to look back on a memorable weekend at Silverstone, where Damon Hill came agonisingly close to claiming his first F1 victory in front of his home crowd. But a rare Renault engine failure for Hill allowed his Williams team-mate Alain Prost to claim a then-record 50th win, while Prost's bitter rival Ayrton Senna stopped on the final lap of the race for the third year running. The weekend played out with tension brewing between the FIA and teams over the legality of driver aids, and Bernie Ecclestone taking shots at Indycar racing where reigning F1 champion Nigel Mansell was making international headlines. We also get the inside story of how Williams upset one of its sponsors so badly that they decided to quit F1 at the end of that season. ▶️ Watch the McLaren anniversary event we talk about in the show here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDTO9XyNE_Q Want MORE BBV10s?

Glenn Freeman is joined by Edd Straw, Matt Beer and Ben Anderson to discuss the key moments from the season-opening Australian Grand Prix, where David Coulthard ended McLaren's mid-1990s winless streak, with a slight assist from an overambitious Eddie Irvine.

  • Digging into motor racing history with the hosts of our new podcast
    Apr 8 2024
    As a listener to Bring Back V10s, we know you enjoy your F1 history, so we thought you'd like to hear about The Race's new podcast, which delves into other areas of motor racing history. On this very special crossover episode of Bring Back V10s, Glenn Freeman chats to Matt Bishop and Richard Williams - the hosts of And Colossally That's History! - about their new podcast and what listeners can expect. Glenn then introduces a section of the first episode, which is about Brawn GP and some of the unintended consequences of their F1 fairy tale. It's full of interesting details and behind-the-scenes information (Matt was working for McLaren at the time!), so we hope it's a topic that will appeal to BBV10s fans, even if it does stray into the V8 era! If you enjoy this chat with Matt and Richard (and the excerpt of the podcast) please do search for And Colossally That’s History in your podcast app of choice and like, follow or subscribe to the feed so that you can listen to the rest of the Brawn episode and ensure that you get each episode of the podcast delivered to you as soon as they're are released.

  • S9 E8: Portugal '96 - Villeneuve stuns Schumacher
    Feb 22 2024
    The 1996 Portuguese Grand Prix is famous for one thing: Jacques Villeneuve's thrilling around-the-outside pass on Michael Schumacher's Ferrari at the fearsome final corner, which set him up for a charge to victory that kept that year's title battle alive all the way to the final race in Japan. Matt Beer and Ben Anderson join a giddy Glenn Freeman to revisit one of Villeneuve's greatest days in F1, also looking at how Schumacher really reacted to the move in private. We also discuss Damon Hill somewhat limping to the title after starting the year so well, plus how Stewart and Jordan did battle for his signature for 1997 before he chose Arrows. There's also talk of Ralf Schumacher rejecting McLaren to sign for Jordan, Sauber landing its Ferrari engine deal, Eddie Irvine benefitting from some rare Ferrari testing, and what happened after McLaren team-mates David Coulthard and Mika Hakkinen collided during the race.

  • S9 E7: Canada 2014 - Ricciardo's crazy first win
    Feb 15 2024
    Bring Back V10s has gone hybrid! 10 years on from the introduction of the modern-day F1 engines that don't make enough noise and are missing four cylinders, Glenn Freeman, Edd Straw and Ben Anderson revisit the 2014 Canadian Grand Prix - a race famous for Daniel Ricciardo taking his maiden F1 win for Red Bull, and Mercedes suffering its first hybrid-era defeat. We look back at the early shots in the Lewis Hamilton/Nico Rosberg war, Ferrari's nightmare start to the era, how the tension between Red Bull and Renault almost forced Adrian Newey out the door, Haas delaying its entry into F1, Jenson Button fighting for his future at McLaren, and Bernie Ecclestone's stance against social media.
