The History Buff

Next year F1 will be celebrating its 75-year anniversary so it's safe to say there is a lot of history in this sport. In this episode, Toni is taking Michael all the way back to the very beginning of F1 to try and make some sense of the puzzle that is this sport. She's invited some very knowledgeable people to help her. Toni and Michael are joined by Matt Bishop who's been in F1 for 30+ years working for McLaren, Aston Martin and was one of the founders of the W Series. James Allen, ex-F1 announcer and now President of Motorsport Business & F1 Liaison at the Motorsport Network Media and Sean Kelly whose work you will most likely know as he is the Chief Statistician to the F1 broadcasters. This is our best attempt at a crash course on the history of F1, how we got here, what's changed and what hasn't.
