Bring Back V10s returns! And we're kicking off Season 13 with something a bit different, as we revisit the major flashpoints in the short-lived Ayrton Senna/Michael Schumacher F1 rivalry.

Glenn Freeman, Ben Anderson and Edd Straw dig into the times Senna and Schumacher fell out during their brief spell together on the F1 grid - and yes, that includes Senna's iconic public telling off that he gave Schumacher at the 1992 French Grand Prix while wearing a pastel jumper!

We also explore how their relationship and rivalry appeared to be evolving heading into 1994, and how Schumacher handled the loss of Senna that year, both publicly and in private.

As preparation for Season 13 of Bring Back V10s accelerates, we thought we'd share a sample of a bit of bonus content we made for The Race Members' Club. After each episode of the regular series, host Glenn Freeman produces a Debrief for The Race Members' Club, where he answers questions relating to the episode. On this occasion, we asked the members for questions about Bring Back V10s itself, and Glenn sat down for over an hour to go through as many questions about the show as he could.

Our Indycar Split series concludes by looking at how the CART/IRL war finally came to an end after more than a decade of fighting.

But before we get to that, we have to talk about one of the biggest fights that took place during the split: the battle over who really won the 2002 Indy 500.

Glenn Freeman, Edd Straw and Indy Split book author John Oreovicz dig back in great detail over what happened between Penske IRL driver Helio Castroneves and Team Green CART driver Paul Tracy, who were battling for the lead on the penultimate lap of the race when the yellow flags came out for a crash.

We also look into CART's decline and ultimate collapse, as its teams and engine manufacturers started switching full-time to the IRL.

And finally we revisit the story of how the two sides finally came together, as well as asking if there really was a winner once the war was over and Indycar racing was reunited again in 2008.

We know from your feedback that you enjoy it when Bring Back V10s dips into the world of Indycar racing, so as a winter bonus we're delighted to bring you our special three-part series on the infamous story of how Indycar racing was torn apart in the mid-90s.

Episode 2 deals with CART's US 500 nightmare as it attempted to go head-to-head with the first 'IRL' Indy 500 in 1996. Glenn Freeman, Edd Straw and John Oreovicz then look back on CART's strength in the late-1990s, and the IRL's struggles to become established. Then at the turn of the century, Chip Ganassi Racing became the first big hitter from CART to go back to Indianapolis, starting a gradual shift of more teams crossing the divide each May, which eventually led to the first big full-time defection to the IRL.

We hope you enjoy this little sideways step into another area of motorsport, but if it’s not for you, fear not we’ll be back with more F1 coverage very soon.

We know from your feedback that you enjoy it when Bring Back V10s dips into the world of Indycar racing, so as a winter bonus we're delighted to bring you our special three-part series on the infamous story of how Indycar racing was torn apart in the mid-90s, shortly after Nigel Mansell had helped make the North American series so popular that Bernie Ecclestone saw it as a threat to F1.

In episode one, Glenn Freeman, Edd Straw and 'Indy Split' book author John Oreovicz head back to early-1994 and the moment Indianapolis Motor Speedway boss Tony George announced he would be forming his own competitor to the CART Indycar series.

We look at what drove George to make his bombshell announcement, and how the world of Indy racing reacted and evolved in the two years before the Indy Racing League hit the track for its first race.

There's also discussion around the silly move the CART teams made that helped the IRL get up and running, and how both sides of the war fired major shots at each other with their plans for the weekend of the 1996 Indianapolis 500.

Season 12 of Bring Back V10s concludes with a brilliant selection of questions about F1’s V10 era that came in from The Race Members’ Club. Glenn Freeman is joined by Mark Hughes, Ben Anderson and Edd Straw to tackle a wide range of topics, including how F1’s modern-day driving guidelines would be applied to the Michael Schumacher/Damon Hill Adelaide 1994 collision, who was most at fault for the collapse of the Prost-Peugeot partnership, how refuelling would have changed the Ayrton Senna/Alain Prost dynamic at the start of the V10 era, what would have happened if Michael Schumacher chose McLaren over Ferrari for 1996, plus much more including our verdict on a brilliant submission of the ultimate Bring Back V10s 16-race F1 calendar.

For Season 12’s top 10 debate, we took a suggestion from Chris Parrott in The Race Members’ Club to rank the biggest F1 heartbreaks of the V10 era. Having then enlisted the help of many more of our members on Patreon in the Bring Back V10s community chat group, a shortlist of crushing moments was created for Glenn Freeman, Ben Anderson, Matt Beer and Edd Straw to put into their own top 10s. Unsurprisingly we were spoilt for choice, so get ready for a lengthy chat that primarily focuses on underdogs who came painfully close to great moments of glory, but also features a few greats who were denied early success before their careers truly took off.

Bring Back V10s heads back to 1993 for the final regular episode of Season 12, with an in-depth look at that year's Monaco Grand Prix, which proved a historic one for Ayrton Senna as he took a record-breaking sixth victory in the Principality.

Glenn Freeman is joined by Andrew van de Burgt and 1993 apologist Edd Straw to look back on the big off-track stories making headlines leading into the weekend and the key on-track moments in the race, including a controversial jump-start penalty for Alain Prost, an unlucky retirement for Michael Schumacher, and a wild moment featuring Gerhard Berger, Damon Hill and Michael Andretti. Plus, Glenn, Andrew and Edd discuss whether Senna's record-breaking victory was actually the worst of his six wins in Monaco.
