Summary

As a listener to Bring Back V10s, we know you enjoy your F1 history, so we thought you'd like to hear about The Race's new podcast, which delves into other areas of motor racing history. On this very special crossover episode of Bring Back V10s, Glenn Freeman chats to Matt Bishop and Richard Williams - the hosts of And Colossally That's History! - about their new podcast and what listeners can expect. Glenn then introduces a section of the first episode, which is about Brawn GP and some of the unintended consequences of their F1 fairy tale. It's full of interesting details and behind-the-scenes information (Matt was working for McLaren at the time!), so we hope it's a topic that will appeal to BBV10s fans, even if it does stray into the V8 era! If you enjoy this chat with Matt and Richard (and the excerpt of the podcast) please do search for And Colossally That’s History in your podcast app of choice and like, follow or subscribe to the feed so that you can listen to the rest of the Brawn episode and ensure that you get each episode of the podcast delivered to you as soon as they're are released.

0:00.0	The Athletic.
0:02.7	Hello and welcome to a special bonus episode in the Bring Back V10's feed, where I, Glenn Freeman,
0:16.3	will be introducing you to a new podcast we've created here at the race, which I know some of you are
0:21.0	already aware of, and for those of you who aren't, I think you're going to like what you're
0:25.4	about to hear. As a listener to bring back V10s, we know that you like me enjoy your F1 history,
0:31.8	but whereas we like to celebrate that glorious period of F1 between 1989 and 2005, with the odd foray into the V8 and even
0:39.5	the hybrid era now, our new podcast, which you might have already seen as promoting on the
0:44.1	at BBV10 social media account, is dedicated to motorsport history from the dawn of racing
0:51.0	all the way up to now. And it's not just F1. So for those of you who always
0:55.8	ask me, when are we going to talk about 70s dfs and 80s turbos on Bring Back V10s?
1:01.7	Well, this show is going to take you even further back than that on some occasions. So I think
1:06.8	you'll be quite happy. I'm delighted to say that joining me to tell us all about it at a podcast's host two people
1:13.6	who many of you will already be very familiar with, Matt Bishop and Richard Williams.
1:19.6	Welcome to you both.
1:20.6	And first of all, Matt, I'll come to you.
1:23.6	Can you tell us what the podcast is called and how you came up with the name?
1:32.0	Well, the podcast is called and colossally, that's history.
1:40.3	And those who are listening who know their Formula One history may well already have worked out why that is. It's because the late, great, the late great Murray Walker, uh, famously bellowed into his,
1:47.0	uh, commentary microphone, the words, am I going to risk trying to impersonate him? I'll say
1:54.4	them first. And colossally, that's Mansell. When he saw that Mansell's Williams at Adelaide in 1986 was in trouble
2:05.5	and that therefore he wasn't going to win the world championship.
2:08.8	Before I go on, is anyone going to essay an impersonation of Murray saying those famous words?
