Autosport Retro - Top 10 Campaigns Not To Win a Title!
About this episode
The episode discusses the top 10 Formula 1 campaigns that did not result in a championship title despite outstanding performances.
Motorsport fans know that the best performers aren’t always rewarded with a title at season’s end. Unreliability, misfortune, bizarre scoring systems and inferior equipment can combine to deny drivers even when they are at the top of their game. For this list, we have picked out Formula 1’s greatest all-season performances by drivers who didn’t win the championship. It doesn’t necessarily mean that the champions from those years were unworthy; it’s more about highlighting star campaigns that went unrewarded. We’ve taken into account the machinery at their disposal, standout drives, the amount of bad luck they had and the points they gave away. F1 pundit Karun Chandhok joins Autosport’s Stuart Codling to assess host Kevin Turner’s selection. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
