My Favourite F1 Season - #1: Karun Chandhok's 1997
As a sneak-peek into the first episode of a brand new series on the Autosport Retro Podcast channel, Editor-In-Chief Kevin Turner sits down with journalists, broadcasters and friends of the show to discuss what they think is their favourite F1 season of all-time. On Episode 1, we have former F1 driver, turned historic racer and broadcaster, Karun Chandhok and his favourite season - 1997.
It was a season likely to be most remembered with one of F1's most intense rivalries as Ferrari's Michael Schumacher went head to head with Williams' Jacques Villeneuve. The season-defining crash at Jerez and the incredible triple tie in qualifying is mentioned, as well as some of the under-appreciated stories of the season, such as a preview to Mika Hakkinen's future success, and Heinz-Harald Frentzen replacing Damon Hill at Williams.

Oliver Oakes Resigns At Alpine as Franco Colapinto Replaces Jack Doohan
In a special edition of the podcast, Dre Harrison sits down with F1 writer Jake Boxall-Legge and News Editor Haydn Cobb to break down two shock stories from Alpine's F1 Team.
Last night, Oliver Oakes has resigned as Alpine team principal with immediate effect, with executive advisor Flavio Briatore taking his duties on an interim basis. Flavio released a statement earlier today dismissing rumours that there was a rift between the pair and instead cited "personal reasons" for Oakes departure.
Also announced this morning was that Alpine reserve driver Franco Colapinto will be taking Jack Doohan's seat for at least the next five races, starting with next weekend's Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix.
Dre, Jake and Haydn discuss whether Doohan was unfairly dropped from the team after a rocky start to life in F1, whether Colapinto will be an improvement in the short-term at Alpine, the managerial merry-go-around from Enstone after hiring their sixth team principal in five years, and ponder what could be coming next for a team that seemingly cannot avoid drama.
