As a sneak-peek into the first episode of a brand new series on the Autosport Retro Podcast channel, Editor-In-Chief Kevin Turner sits down with journalists, broadcasters and friends of the show to discuss what they think is their favourite F1 season of all-time. On Episode 1, we have former F1 driver, turned historic racer and broadcaster, Karun Chandhok and his favourite season - 1997.  It was a season likely to be most remembered with one of F1's most intense rivalries as Ferrari's Michael Schumacher went head to head with Williams' Jacques Villeneuve. The season-defining crash at Jerez and the incredible triple tie in qualifying is mentioned, as well as some of the under-appreciated stories of the season, such as a preview to Mika Hakkinen's future success, and Heinz-Harald Frentzen replacing Damon Hill at Williams.

#196 GP van Singapore: Norris pakt overtuigende overwinning, maar is het genoeg?

Een slijtageslag is de GP van Singapore altijd al. Een race zonder onderbrekingen van een safety car of rode vlag maakt het er niet makkelijker op. Toch boekte Lando Norris een overtuigende overwinning op het stratencircuit. De Brit maakte het bijna zelf nog even spannend met een paar kleine uitglijdertjes, maar wist uiteindelijk met comfortabele marge te winnen. Of dat genoeg blijkt voor de hoofdprijs aan het eind van het seizoen, moet nog blijken. Want tot ieders (en ook zijn eigen) verbazing wist Max Verstappen tot twee keer toe in het weekend op de tweede plek te eindigen met zijn Red Bull. Zo werd de schade enigzins beperkt in een weekend waar Red Bull Racing het normaal gesproken lastig heeft. Daarnaast lijkt er iets van rust en zelfvertrouwen terug te keren in het team..

For a driver who only qualified for nine Formula 1 races in three seasons, German racing legend Bernd Schneider sure has some epic stories from his short stint on the grid in the late 1980's and early ‘90's. Speaking to Tom Clarkson, Schneider talks about how close he came to denying Michael Schumacher his F1 debut and the huge contract Eddie Jordan offered him to return to the sport. Bernd, who went on to become a five-time DTM champion with Mercedes-Benz after his F1 career finished, also reveals how he was nearly partly responsible for Mercedes pulling out of all motorsport after their car flipped several times at Le Mans in 1999 and what it was like to be teammates with icons Mika Hakkinen, Mark Webber and Jean Alesi.

McLaren's prestige in Formula 1 is built on the foundations of legendary success. The team has won eight Constructor titles and produced some of the most distinguished World Champions to grace the sport. That history wouldn't exist without the genius of people like Neil Oatley. His wisdom and expertise has served F1 for nearly half a decade. Such longevity equals legacy in this sport. Neil first made a name for himself as a race engineer at Williams in the late 1970's, playing a huge part in the team's first Grand Prix victory and subsequent World Championships for Alan Jones and Keke Rosberg in the early 80's. But it was as McLaren's chief designer when Neil really certified his status as one of the most influential engineers of all time. From 1989 to 1999, Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost and Mika Hakkinen all won World Championships in cars designed by Oatley. In a fascinating conversation with Tom Clarkson, Neil relives some of the most iconic memories from his extraordinary career. He reveals what it was like to work with some of the greatest drivers and to have a front-row seat for Senna and Prost's fierce rivalry. Plus, Neil tells Tom how the role of engineer and driver has evolved, how he's still helping McLaren today, and much more.

Jan's career started in 1995 as McLaren test driver, before debuting later that year. Moving to Stewart Grand Prix for 1997, Jan remained with the team until midway through 1998. We ask Jan about attending the launch of the ill-fated 1995 McLaren, and hear the very unique reason Nigel Mansell started his short McLaren career in Team Principal Ron Dennis's bad books. Jan tells us about making his debut for the iconic McLaren team in 1995, and the preparation needed to race in place of the injured Mika Hakkinen. After his move to Stewart Grand Prix for the 1997 season, Jan tells us about his struggles, and how ultimately his career ended in the sport but led to a highly successful career in sports car racing. -- Keep up to date with all the latest Formula 1 News @ www.formulanerds.com -- Follow Us: Facebook - www.Facebook.com/FormulaNerds Twitter - www.twitter.com/Formula_Nerds Instagram www.instagram.com/FormulaNerds -- For Advertising & Sponsorship Opportunities:- Email Business@FormulaNerds.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Name a top F1 team or driver – Pat Fry is probably a big part of their success. He's spent 35 years winning with Benetton, McLaren, Ferrari and Alpine, racing with world champion drivers Ayrton Senna, Mika Hakkinen, Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso. In that time he's seen F1 change massively, and played a big role in developing game-changing racing technology. Pat tells Tom Clarkson about the challenges of F1's new 2022 rules, his favourite drivers, his toughest bosses and how to build a winning team. Pat's still racing as hard as ever as Alpine's Chief Technical Officer. Today he's chasing the performance gains he hopes will make the French team F1 world championship contenders in the future.
