About this episode

The episode discusses the top 10 great lost F1 wins where drivers were denied victory through no fault of their own.

Formula 1 cars are very reliable now – even when new rules arrive – but there have been plenty of drivers robbed of victory over the 75 years of the world championship, and we’ve decided to pick out the best unrewarded efforts. For our latest Autosport Top 10, we’ve prioritised those performances in which the driver was denied through no fault of their own. The circumstances of the defeat and the timing of the drama have also been considered, as have the overall quality of the drive itself and the significance of the failure. Autosport’s F1 reporter, Stuart Codling, and author and journalist Damien Smith join forces to assess host Kevin Turner’s ranking. What did he get right and wrong? Learn more about your ad choices.
