Summary

Edd Straw and Matt Beer join Glenn Freeman for the first of our two-part series finale where we answer your questions about the V10 era of F1 from 1989-2005. Topics covered include: the prospect of Nigel Mansell at Benetton in 1993-4, if Juan Pablo Montoya's F1 career was underrated, tracks that fell off the F1 calendar during this era, the fastest team-mate pairings, over- and under-achieving cars, Flavio Briatore's engine contract games and which F1 minnow would have been most deserving of a massive cash injection.

0:00.0	The Athletic
0:02.0	The end of another series of Bring Back V10s is fast approaching, but as always, we've been inundated with so many questions from our audience that we can't possibly end it just yet.
0:20.0	During series 5, we've received more questions from our listeners than ever before.
0:24.5	So a massive thank you to everyone who sent in at least one using the hashtag Bring Back V10s on Twitter,
0:30.6	emailing Bring Back V10s at the hyphenrace.com,
0:33.9	or by including a question in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.
0:38.8	Joining me, Glenn Freeman, for the first of our two-part finale, our Ed Straw and Matt Beer,
0:44.2	who I can reveal are the only people at the moment who have seen our list of episodes for series six.
0:49.9	But Matt, looking beyond that honour and knowing my personal dislike for spoilers, let's focus on today's episode.
0:57.0	As usual, the traditional opening question is tweaked a little for the end of the series.
1:01.5	So which question today are you most looking forward to from our list?
1:05.2	The facts that I've got at least two chances to be quite negative about Nigel Mansell.
1:10.4	Short and sharp. And yeah, I think your
1:13.8	name came to mind when I saw those Mansell opportunities. But we'll try and balance it out if we can.
1:21.0	But Ed, what about you? It's probably not Mansell for you. What back of the grid nonsense has
1:25.0	caught your eye? Well, Matt's saying that does make me think I've got the chance to be the counterbalance and bring some sanity to the Nigel Mantle debate. But there is a question about a particular bring back V10's favourite, or one of my favourites anyway, that also gives me an excuse to touch on some backmarket teams, Coloni AGS, that kind of thing. So I'm looking forward to that one. See if you can spot it.
1:49.0	I think we'll be able to spot it just fine. And that's as close as we get into a spoiler as well.
1:53.5	I mentioned earlier that people have been submitting questions via Apple podcast reviews. And we've recently been absolutely flooded with reviews as people are working their way through series five.
1:59.7	So thank you so much. We'll do a monster list of shoutouts now to show our appreciation for all of you,
2:05.9	showing your love for Bring Back V10s, including those of you emailing us to say you listen
2:10.3	on different platforms, but still think we're worth five stars. So here we go. Thank you to Prasad
2:16.0	VJ, Con Solo, Muktena, Matt Firth,
