Early access: BBV10s S10 E7 - Stewart's rollercoaster debut season
Added 2024-08-08 16:08:51 +0000 UTCOn this episode, Bring Back V10s turns the clock back to 1997 when three-time world champion Jackie Stewart and his son Paul joined the F1 grid with their eponymous team Stewart Grand Prix.
Glenn Freeman is joined by Edd Straw and Matt Beer to look back on what proved an up and down debut season in the sport, which included Rubens Barrichello’s stunning podium in Monaco, a woeful reliability record that resulted in just eight classified finishes out of a possible thirty-four, underwhelming performances from the then much-heralded Jan Magnussen, and behind-the-scenes political manoeuvring with the FIA…

Awesome pod, this was the season I fell in love with F1 as a 13/14 year old!

2024-08-16 16:33:22 +0000 UTCAs a 13 year old Scotsman I was overjoyed when Stewart entered F1. I can remember trying to pick my fantasy F1 team in one of the magazines, and I could never find the budget to have Schumi and DC in the same car haha

2024-08-12 13:50:48 +0000 UTCImagine being the person who asks a question about "things you were wrong about at 13" and then realised that you were actually 15 in 97...

2024-08-10 12:26:30 +0000 UTCWhat a brilliant pod. (And a brilliant series). I was the Michael that tried to make a case for Magnussen in the Members' question. Loved the stat Edd came up with where Barrichello lead over 75% of the laps when they were both on track.
