⭐️ Bring Back V10s 1997 revisited: Luxembourg GP
Added 2024-11-15 07:00:07 +0000 UTCThe iconic image from F1's first 'Luxembourg Grand Prix' in 1997 has to be Ralf Schumacher's Jordan spinning over the side of his brother's Ferrari, inflicting a critical blow to Michael's championship hopes. But as we discuss on our latest 1997 Revisited episode, the real culprit for this clash seems to have got away with his role in it over the years, and this memorable incident took attention away from an almost disastrous separate clash involving Schumacher's title rival Jacques Villeneuve.
We also reflect on McLaren's humiliating double retirement on home ground for Mercedes, more Damon Hill misery, and Olivier Panis scoring points on his return from injury.

My memory of this race was seeing MSC retiring after the first couple of laps - and then turning the TV off to do something else!!! (Boys a dear I was a fickle F1 fan back then!)
