The 2003 Hungarian Grand Prix is famous for being the day Fernando Alonso took his first victory in F1, lapping Michael Schumacher in the process.
Host Glenn Freeman is joined by Mark Hughes and special guest Ted Kravitz to look back on the first race held on the revised layout of the Hungaroring - which was changed in a bid to improve the racing. We also hear from Alonso himself on the importance of that first win in his emergence as a superstar during the 2000s.
There's also discussion on the 2004 driver market, Juan Pablo Montoya's attempts to change his approach, Ralph Firman's unlucky run of big crashes caused by car failures at Jordan, Williams getting a grid penalty overturned for Ralf Schumacher, the role Mark Webber played in Alonso's win, and why Ferrari struggled so much during the summer of 2003. Plus a brief look at the tyre controversy that would erupt before the next round at Monza and turn the title fight on its head.
