F175 - The Greatest Grand Prix

The Autosport F1 Podcast

Show Notes

What makes a race truly legendary? Is it a wet-weather masterclass, a relentless wheel-to-wheel duel, or an underdog story that defies the odds? As Formula 1 celebrated its 75th year, we move beyond the championship permutations to rank the sheer quality of the racing itself.

This is it, the big one! In the final episode of our series looking at the greatest races in world championship history, we set out to choose the best Formula 1 Grand Prix.

Sky Sports F1 pundit and racing driver Karun Chandhok brings his extensive knowledge and a critical eye to our debate, with host Kevin Turner and author Roger Smith – who struggled to agree on this one!
