Digging into motor racing history with the hosts of our new podcast

Author: The Race Media Ltd April 8, 2024 Duration: 39:42

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.

There’s a particular roar that defined a generation of Formula 1, a sound that’s now a memory. Bring Back V10s-Classic F1 stories isn’t just about nostalgia for that engine scream; it’s a thorough, engaging exploration of the era it powered. Host Glenn Freeman, alongside a rotating panel of expert guests from The Race Media Ltd, meticulously unpacks the period from 1989 to 2005. This was a time when the sport’s drama was as intense off the circuit as on it, featuring colossal rivalries between legends like Senna, Prost, and Schumacher. Each episode serves as a detailed time capsule, revisiting the races, the politics, and the personalities that made this a golden age. You’ll hear stories about established superstars and the rise of future greats like Alonso and Raikkonen, blending major headlines with forgotten details that even ardent fans may have missed. The conversation in this sports podcast goes beyond mere results, capturing the atmosphere and the raw, unfiltered character of F1 during these pivotal years. It’s for anyone who wants to understand not just what happened, but how it felt and why it still matters. Tune in for a deep, thoughtful, and often surprising retrospective that brings the V10 epoch back to life in vivid detail.
