S3 E4: 1999 French GP - Jordan strikes again

SPECIAL GUEST: Mike Gascoyne!

Former Jordan technical director Mike Gascoyne joins Glenn Freeman and Edd Straw for a look back at Jordan's second F1 win in the 1999 French Grand Prix. We'll hear stories of what made the team's '99 car a step up from the 198 that won at Spa the previous season, what was happening on the pit wall (and a few miles away in a French field) that was key to Heinz-Harald Frentzen's victory, and the despair Damon Hill was going through on the other side of the garage as he realised his time was up in F1.

Away from Jordan, we also discuss Eddie Irvine speaking out about team orders at Ferrari, BAR's forgettable start to life in F1 and who Jacques Villeneuve and Craig Pollock felt was responsible for it, Alain Prost putting the pressure on Peugeot on home turf, why various teams misjudged the conditions in qualifying to create a mixed-up grid, how McLaren could have dominated the race, the mysterious problem that almost forced Frentzen to retire in the closing stages, why Mika Hakkinen couldn't catch the Jordan on fresh tyres after a late stop, the problems that ruled Michael Schumacher out of the battle for victory and how a decision Ferrari took that day potentially cost Eddie Irvine the title at the end of the year, plus why Ralf Schumacher felt this race was his best drive in F1.
