F1 Podcast: Schumacher's mysterious Indy finish line farce
What was Michael Schumacher actually trying to achieve with his bizarre 2002 US GP finish line antics? Bring Back V10s tries to make sense of it
The most memorable moments from the 2002 Formula 1 season often involve Ferraris messing about on the run to the finish line.
But unlike in Austria when the position swap was the result of strict orders from the pit wall, at Indianapolis Michael Schumacher returned the favour to Rubens Barrichello - or did he?
To try to make sense of that bizarre finish, Glenn Freeman is joined by Mark Hughes and Bring Back V10s debutant Jonathan Noble, who were both at the 2002 United States Grand Prix.
They look back on the confusion around the finish, as Schumacher seemed unable to decide if he was trying to give Barrichello a victory, or engineer a dead heat finish.
We also look back on Ford completing a three-month review of its failing Jaguar team, BAR considering its identity for the future, Felipe Massa effectively having F1’s first 10-place grid penalty turned into a race ban by his team, and a shock announcement of a new American F1 team that never came to anything.
Bring Back V10s now has its own YouTube channel!
