Donington Park’s sole world championship Formula 1 race became an instant legend thanks to an extraordinary drive by Ayrton Senna in mixed weather conditions.
And of course, Mark Hughes, Gary Anderson and host Glenn Freeman delve into what made that performance so special as our Bring Back V10s podcast relives the 1993 European Grand Prix.
But there was so much more going on behind the scenes that weekend that our panel delve into.
From very early driver market machinations with one of 1992’s top performers already under threat to the ongoing doubts about Senna’s F1 future to rows over driver aids and news that Peugeot was abandoning plans for an F1 works team, it was a fraught time in a paddock Anderson and Hughes were both a part of as Jordan technical director and a journalist respectively.
They also discuss Williams drivers Alain Prost and Damon Hill’s capitulation in the race, and whether a very young Rubens Barrichello’s drive for Jordan was actually as good as Senna’s.
Bring Back V10s is available through all major podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
