Red Bull was flying high in the early part of the 2010 F1 season,

with drivers Mark Weber and Sebastian Vettel tied at the top of the standings,

having won three of the opening six races. Another win seemed to be

on the cards as they ran first and second in the Turkish Grand Prix, but instead we got the first

major flashpoint between two drivers who would continue to have a strained relationship during

their time in the same garage, as they collided while battling for the lead at Istanbul Park, handing a

one-two to the chasing McLaren's. Rebel then seemed to make the situation worse by handling

the fallout really badly, while McLaren had their own misunderstanding to fix after the race as well,

as their cars nearly collided while battling for the lead a few laps later. Welcome to bring back V10's latest detour into the V8 era as we look back on everything

that was going on around the 2010 Turkish Grand Prix.

And joining me, Glenn Freeman, to do that, are two men who were there that weekend.

It's always fun when we get to do this with people who are on site.

So we've got Ed Straw and John Noble.

John, I'll come to you first for the typical opening question. Turkey 2010, frighteningly long time ago now.

But when you think back to that weekend, what's the first thing that comes to mind?

Well, the collision between Seb Vettl and Weber still stands out an iconic F1 moment, but also with

this V10 thing, I always like going back through my hard drive photos at home just to see what

happened this again, because sometimes you do so many races and you can't remember various

moments and quite a fun one that one of the best photos of Turkey 2010 was Ed Straw climbing out of a higher car on a ferry, trying to get from the passenger side out through the driver's side because there wasn't enough, a big enough gap for him to climb out the car. It's a very well-liveried higher car as well, wasn't it, which I didn't remember. Well livery, what was the livery? A big herds livery on it. Oh, amazing. Very strange. Ed, other than clambering out of a car on a ferry, what stands out for you for that weekend? Well, something that's often referred to privately is about the other person in this room who was in Turkey in 2010 in producer Johnny. Oh, what's this going to be? Who was there for F1 racing. So we were, if memory serves, all traveling together. I believe you're on that same ferry. But we popped into this little small shop to get some supplies, me, John Noble, Johnny Reynolds. And we've got the bag of supplies and the guy put it all in the bag and it was paid for. There's just this fantastic moment where he had the bag and he's having to work out who to give it to.

So he looked at John Noble, looked at me, and then straight away looked at little Johnny Reynolds

and just gave him the bag.
