À propos de cet audio

On this day in Formula 1 history, championships were shaped, rivalries defined, and finales set up in unforgettable fashion.

We begin at Mosport in 1974, where Emerson Fittipaldi pounced on Niki Lauda’s misfortune to draw level with Clay Regazzoni in one of the closest title battles of the decade. Then it’s back to Canada 1968, where McLaren scored their first-ever 1–2 after Chris Amon’s luckless Ferrari faltered. From there, we head to Estoril 1991, where Nigel Mansell’s infamous pit-lane disaster handed Ayrton Senna a crucial cushion. Finally, we relive Estoril 1996, as Jacques Villeneuve stunned Michael Schumacher with one of the bravest overtakes in Formula 1 history to keep his rookie title challenge alive.

These were the clashes that didn’t just win races — they crafted the contests that defined championships.
