Description

Grab your poncho and your stopwatch, because we're heading back to the soaking streets of Monte Carlo for one of the most chaotic, controversial, and career-launching races in F1 history. In this episode, we relive the 1984 Monaco Grand Prix — where a young, fearless Ayrton Senna drove like Poseidon possessed... only to be red-flagged just as he was about to make history. Was it for safety? Strategy? Or a sneaky French conspiracy? (Spoiler: maybe all three.)

Then, in our bonus segment, we dive into the ultimate hypothetical: which backmarker from F1’s past should host a podcast called The Back of the Pack? We pitch our top pick to bring you tales from the tail end — dodging blue flags, avoiding team politics, and always somehow finishing 17th with style.
