Bring Back V10s has gone hybrid! 10 years on from the introduction of the modern-day F1 engines that don't make enough noise and are missing four cylinders, Glenn Freeman, Edd Straw and Ben Anderson revisit the 2014 Canadian Grand Prix - a race famous for Daniel Ricciardo taking his maiden F1 win for Red Bull, and Mercedes suffering its first hybrid-era defeat.
We look back at the early shots in the Lewis Hamilton/Nico Rosberg war, Ferrari's nightmare start to the era, how the tension between Red Bull and Renault almost forced Adrian Newey out the door, Haas delaying its entry into F1, Jenson Button fighting for his future at McLaren, and Bernie Ecclestone's stance against social media.

S9 E7: Canada 2014 - Ricciardo's crazy first win

Bring Back V10s celebrates a classic era when Formula 1 was loud on the track and off it. Join host Glenn Freeman and a range of guests as they take a deep-dive into a golden age of F1 from 1989 to 2005, when superstars like Schumacher, Senna, Mansell and Prost were thrilling fans and rising talents like Alonso, Button and Raikkonen were establishing themselves as modern greats. Go back in time as we recall information you might have forgotten and unearth previously unknown details about some fascinating tales from F1's history.

As we're between series on Bring Back V10s at the moment, we thought we'd share a little gift with those of you who aren't part of The Race Members' Club: The first episode of our special members-only series looking back at the 1997 F1 season one race at a time!  
Glenn Freeman is joined by Edd Straw, Matt Beer and Ben Anderson to discuss the key moments from the season-opening Australian Grand Prix, where David Coulthard ended McLaren's mid-1990s winless streak, with a slight assist from an overambitious Eddie Irvine.

UNLOCKED: Listen to our members-only episode on Australia 1997

As a listener to Bring Back V10s, we know you enjoy your F1 history, so we thought you'd like to hear about The Race's new podcast, which delves into other areas of motor racing history.
On this very special crossover episode of Bring Back V10s, Glenn Freeman chats to Matt Bishop and Richard Williams - the hosts of And Colossally That's History! - about their new podcast and what listeners can expect.
Glenn then introduces a section of the first episode, which is about Brawn GP and some of the unintended consequences of their F1 fairy tale. It's full of interesting details and behind-the-scenes information (Matt was working for McLaren at the time!), so we hope it's a topic that will appeal to BBV10s fans, even if it does stray into the V8 era!
If you enjoy this chat with Matt and Richard (and the excerpt of the podcast) please do search for And Colossally That’s History in your podcast app of choice and like, follow or subscribe to the feed so that you can listen to the rest of the Brawn episode and ensure that you get each episode of the podcast delivered to you as soon as they're are released.
