S7 E4: 2006 Hungarian GP - Button's first F1 win
Added 2024-06-05 00:49:50 +0000 UTCBring Back V10s ventures into the first year of F1's V8 era to look back at the 2006 Hungarian Grand Prix, where Jenson Button finally claimed the first win of his F1 career. Edd Straw and Scott Mitchell-Malm join host Glenn Freeman to discuss a crazy wet-dry race in great detail, looking at how Button and Honda triumphed, the brilliance of Fernando Alonso before he was forced into retirement, and a day to forget for Michael Schumacher. They also revisit the major news topics from the summer of 2006, including Mark Webber's split from Williams, the Renault mass damper controversy, and how title rivals Alonso and Schumacher both ended up picking up unique penalties that are no longer given out in F1 today.
