S11 E6: The Prost/Ligier saga of 1992

Bring Back V10s - Classic F1 stories

Show Notes

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.
