Autosport has launched a new series of podcasts to celebrate our 70th birthday.

The first issue of Autosport magazine appeared on 25 August 1950 and as part of our celebrations we have taken on the challenge of selecting the greatest competition cars from each of the major international categories.

Our panel of experts will debate the most successful and important grand prix cars, sportscars, rally machines, touring cars, Indycars and junior single-seaters. The winner from each episode will then progress to a grand final, where we will select Autosport’s greatest competition car of all time. Special articles will also be produced on the winners.

In this episode Chief Editor and host Kevin Turner is joined by sportscar guru Gary Watkins, who has been covering Le Mans and international endurance racing for three decades, and Plus Editor James Newbold, who is our British GT correspondent and sportscar enthusiast.
