  • S11 E10: The Top 10 rivalries of F1's V10 era
    Mar 6 2025
    For the finale of Season 11 of Bring Back V10s we're debating the top 10 rivalries of F1's V10 era. Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher and Nigel Mansell all feature prominently as you'd expect, as do the main foes they encountered - and usually fell out with. Host Glenn Freeman is joined by the usual 'top 10' crew of Ben Anderson, Edd Straw and Matt Beer to debate which rivalries stood out the most, and compare their different approaches to the question of what makes an F1 rivalry great.

  • How would F1's V10 era look without Schumacher? We answer your questions
    Feb 27 2025
    We’ve had an absolute deluge of questions from you for our traditional ‘Ask us Anything’ episode in Season 11, and as ever there were far too many great ones for us to fit them all in one episode. Glenn Freeman, Ben Anderson and Edd Straw have a great selection to work through, including hypothetical questions about how F1 would have looked if Michael Schumacher hadn’t got his F1 debut with Jordan in 1991, or if he’d never existed at all! There’s also the question of if McLaren ever truly valued David Coulthard (and who was better out of DC and Damon Hill!), how Jacques Villeneuve would have got into F1 if there wasn’t a vacancy at Williams in 1996, if McLaren could have won the 1998 championship on Goodyear tyres, and Edd gets to tackle a dream suggestion about what F1 could have done with teams that failed to qualify back in the early days of the V10 era. We’ll have many more Q&A episodes exclusively for The Race Members’ Club after S11 has finished, so we can get through even more of the questions we didn’t make it to this time.

  • S11 E8: 1996 Monaco GP - Panis's sensational sole F1 win
    Feb 20 2025
    For the final regular episode of Season 11 of Bring Back V10s we let our members on Patreon choose a race from 1996, and they voted for the chaotic Monaco Grand Prix that was won by Olivier Panis's Ligier. Ahead of the third season of our sister podcast And Colossally That's History, Glenn Freeman and Edd Straw are joined by Colossally co-host Matt Bishop to look back on a bonkers afternoon in Monte Carlo, and to discuss everything else that was going on in F1 around that weekend. We look at how Panis came through the madness from 14th on the grid to claim Ligier's final F1 victory, and discuss the precarious state the French team was in at the time. And there's also discussion of the heartbreaking retirements from the lead of the race for championship leader Damon Hill and Benetton's under-fire lead driver Jean Alesi. Speaking of Hill, this was the weekend when the first rumours about his seat being vulnerable for 1997 emerged, and it was also in Monaco that Ferrari first spoke to Ross Brawn about following Michael Schumacher over from Benetton.
