The second season of Bring Back V10s Revisited kicks off with the 1993 South African Grand Prix from Kyalami, which you can listen to a preview of here. 

Glenn Freeman, Edd Straw, Matt Beer and Ben Anderson look back on the race that marked the resumption of the Alain Prost vs Ayrton Senna rivalry, and how Michael Schumacher and Senna kicked off the season with another controversial collision. We also explore Damon Hill’s difficult Williams debut, and Sauber’s impressive first F1 start.

Glenn Freeman, Matt Beer, Ben Anderson and Edd Straw look back over all of the main segments covered in this classic F1 clips show that celebrated F1’s rise from the mid-1970s all the way to the mid-1990s. 

So get ready for talk of Gilles Villeneuve’s antics (plus a bit of Jacques), John Watson’s heroics from the back of the grid, Ayrton Senna vs Alain Prost, LOTS of Nigel Mansell, plus Damon Hill vs Michael Schumacher and much much more as we look at how F1 history could be brought to life in the days before YouTube!

Bring Back V10s pays tribute to the late Eddie Jordan with a special episode looking back at the Jordan team's greatest moments in F1.

Host Glenn Freeman is joined by Ben Anderson and Matt Beer to debate which of Jordan's many highlights during its memorable time in F1 should be considered the brightest and best, charting the team's journey from a newcomer that had to go through pre-qualifying, to a brief title contender by the end of the 1990s before its decline set in during the early years of the 21st century.

For the finale of Season 11 of Bring Back V10s we're debating the top 10 rivalries of F1's V10 era.

Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher and Nigel Mansell all feature prominently as you'd expect, as do the main foes they encountered - and usually fell out with.

Host Glenn Freeman is joined by the usual 'top 10' crew of Ben Anderson, Edd Straw and Matt Beer to debate which rivalries stood out the most, and compare their different approaches to the question of what makes an F1 rivalry great.

We’ve had an absolute deluge of questions from you for our traditional ‘Ask us Anything’ episode in Season 11, and as ever there were far too many great ones for us to fit them all in one episode. 

Glenn Freeman, Ben Anderson and Edd Straw have a great selection to work through, including hypothetical questions about how F1 would have looked if Michael Schumacher hadn’t got his F1 debut with Jordan in 1991, or if he’d never existed at all!

There’s also the question of if McLaren ever truly valued David Coulthard (and who was better out of DC and Damon Hill!), how Jacques Villeneuve would have got into F1 if there wasn’t a vacancy at Williams in 1996, if McLaren could have won the 1998 championship on Goodyear tyres, and Edd gets to tackle a dream suggestion about what F1 could have done with teams that failed to qualify back in the early days of the V10 era.

We’ll have many more Q&A episodes exclusively for The Race Members’ Club after S11 has finished, so we can get through even more of the questions we didn’t make it to this time.

For the final regular episode of Season 11 of Bring Back V10s we let our members on Patreon choose a race from 1996, and they voted for the chaotic Monaco Grand Prix that was won by Olivier Panis's Ligier.

Ahead of the third season of our sister podcast And Colossally That's History, Glenn Freeman and Edd Straw are joined by Colossally co-host Matt Bishop to look back on a bonkers afternoon in Monte Carlo, and to discuss everything else that was going on in F1 around that weekend.

We look at how Panis came through the madness from 14th on the grid to claim Ligier's final F1 victory, and discuss the precarious state the French team was in at the time. And there's also discussion of the heartbreaking retirements from the lead of the race for championship leader Damon Hill and Benetton's under-fire lead driver Jean Alesi.

Speaking of Hill, this was the weekend when the first rumours about his seat being vulnerable for 1997 emerged, and it was also in Monaco that Ferrari first spoke to Ross Brawn about following Michael Schumacher over from Benetton.

Bring Back V10s makes its regular detour into F1's V8 era to look back on Sebastian Vettel's sensational first grand prix victory in the 2008 Italian Grand Prix.

Glenn Freeman is joined by Jonathan Noble and Karun Chandhok (who was racing in GP2 that weekend at Monza) to reflect on how Vettel was able to take such a commanding victory for Red Bull's second team Toro Rosso, only three years on from it racing as Minardi!

We look back on why McLaren's Heikki Kovalainen offered no threat despite starting from the front row, and how the other McLaren of Lewis Hamilton was more of a victory contender despite starting 15th on the grid.

Also on the agenda: Robert Kubica's conflict with his BMW team over his fading title hopes, Kimi Raikkonen signing a contract extension that he wouldn't see out with Ferrari, Fernando Alonso's floating role in the driver market, Adrian Newey's wisdom on F1's overtaking debate, and Williams's Sam Michael making an incredibly accurate prediction about how the 2009 season would play out under F1's incoming rule changes.

We then dive into the fallout from Vettel's win for Toro Rosso, including the role it played in the political battle over customer cars in F1, and how it heaped pressure and embarrassment onto Red Bull Racing.

Bring Back V10s is picking up where its first ever episodes left off, by revisiting what happened to Alain Prost after he was fired by Ferrari in 1991! 

We’ve reunited the trio from our opening two-parter - Glenn Freeman, Karun Chandhok and Edd Straw - to look at what Prost did in 1992, when he nearly ended up racing for, and buying into, the Ligier team.

We look at how close this shock move came to really happening, why it didn’t come off, plus the other offers Prost had for that year, and why his Williams deal for 1993 was kept secret for so long.

The most memorable moments from the 2002 F1 season often involve Ferraris messing about on the run to the finish line. But unlike in Austria when the position swap was the result of strict orders from the pit wall, at Indianapolis Michael Schumacher returned the favour - or did he?

Host Glenn Freeman is joined by Mark Hughes and Bring Back V10s debutant Jonathan Noble, who were both at the 2002 US Grand Prix. They look back on the confusion around the finish, as Schumacher seemed unable to decide if he was trying to give Barrichello a victory, or engineer a dead heat finish.

We also look back on Ford completing a three-month review of its failing Jaguar team, BAR considering its identity for the future, Felipe Massa effectively having F1’s first 10-place grid penalty turned into a race ban by his team, and a shock announcement of a new American F1 team that never came to anything.
