Show Notes
Bring Back V10s celebrates some key names from F1's V10 era who aren't necessarily remembered purely for their outright achievements behind the wheel.
Before Season 13 draws to a close, we decided to borrow English football's 'Barclaysmen' social media trend, picking out drivers who made a memorable impression on the V10 era without ever really being considered in the top echelon of drivers.
Glenn Freeman, Edd Straw, Matt Beer and Ben Anderson all did their best to grapple with the concept, and got to pick two drivers each. But we didn't share our choices beforehand, meaning everybody needed to bring back-ups.
So get ready for a nostalgic chat about occasional race winners, plucky backmarkers, unlikely title contenders, nomadic journeymen, and - somehow - even an F1 world champion!

After our episode on V10s era cult heroes in Season 13, we asked those in The Race Members' Club to submit suggestions for additional 'V10sMen'. The response was incredible, so much so that we're dedicating three follow-up episodes to the submissions, the first of which you can enjoy in this feed as a special bonus.
Another season of Bring Back V10s is coming to an end, and as usual we're rounding things off by handing the power over to our audience to ask us anything about F1's V10 era.
