Mid Season report and the Hungarian Grand Prix
Manage episode 338978867 series 1260399
I’m Shannon Maybury, your host of The Race Directors podcast, and I’m joined by the soon-to-be blue-flagged backmarkers F1 journalist Ed Spencer and serial podcaster Joe Spagnoli, mysterious F1 Twitter menace Unpaid 1ntern is still doing his paid interning.
Looking Back with Ed.
To choose a classic race from Spa, is like choosing which cake to have for dessert you simply can’t choose one. But if I had to choose one it had to be the one which had everything you could have wanted in a race, drama, action and a heartwarming ending. It’s the story of when Damon Hill and Eddie Jordan danced all night and Schumacher raged quit. It’s the story of Spa’1998.
Classic teams with Joe.
Mercedes’s dominance post-2013 may have reintroduced German silver to the front of the F1 grid, but for all their pride before crashing out at Hockenheim, the team itself are as British as they get. In fact, true German teams are a rarity in F1 history, perhaps due in part to the mess of this week’s classic tale, when the Zakspeed touring car team decided to try their luck on the biggest stage of all.
