The end of Bring Back V10s series 2 is here.

0:09.0

But before we go, we're going to tackle more of your questions about anything and everything in F1 from 1989 to 2005.

0:17.0

Thank you so much to everyone who submitted a question either by using the hashtag Bring Back V10s on Twitter or to those of you who left us a five-star podcast review and sent in your question that way.

The wait for series three won't be too long, I promise and we'll have more details on our return date at the end of this episode.

0:35.8

I'm Glenn Freeman and to see us home to the end of part two of our

0:39.6

series finale, I'm delighted to be joined by Ed Straw and Karun Chanduck. Now Ed, to repeat our

0:46.3

trick from last week, in the absence of a traditional opening question, which of our topics

0:51.6

today are you most looking forward to? Well, regular listeners will

0:55.0

know I have a certain fondness for the unfashionable end of the grid. Ideally, actually,

0:59.3

not even on the grid competitors. So there's a question here about a driver who's best known

1:03.7

for cropping up in social media is a bit of a figure of fun in his spelling the lower reaches

1:08.7

of the field. And also a driver, I think, warrants a little bit of a reputation rebuild. So I'm always happy to visit that sort of topic. But as

1:15.4

always, great bunch of questions. And bring back V10 seems to attract an excellent level of

1:20.2

question asker among its listeners. So well done everyone. Yeah, we don't get very many repeats,

1:24.2

I must say. So everyone's got their own brilliantly weird and wonderful things

1:28.3

they want to ask. And Karun, welcome back for your second appearance of series two. Last time we had

1:33.9

you on, we were talking about Estereal 1993. It'll be a bit more varied today. So which of the

1:39.4

subjects we've got on our list are you most looking forward to? Well, there seem to be lots of what if questions as well, which I'm normally not a fan of, but actually there are a couple of good ones in here, so I'm looking forward to getting stuck into that. But yeah, we'll be talking about underachievers and overachievers in this period of V10s as well. Which one are you, correct? Well, I wasn't racing in this period of V10 straw, so before you get your joke in, ha-ha. But no, I will look forward to... I'll talk about the underachievers, Ed. Should we do that? Let's do that. And then you can have the overachievers. Your area of expertise. There you go.

2:18.4

Well, if Karun underachieve, that's kind of a compliment in a way

2:21.7

because it means he was capable of more.

2:23.6

That's why I thought I'd get in there first, Glenn.

2:26.4

And we will be revisiting something we talked about
