Bring Back V10s finally heads back to Suzuka for the second explosive instalment in 1989-1990 saga between F1 enemies Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost.
Glenn Freeman, Edd Straw, and Andrew van de Burgt revisit the infamous 1990 Japanese Grand Prix to discuss one of F1's most shocking collisions.
We delve into Senna's controversial justification for taking Prost out to win that year's title – from the location of the pole position grid slot to his \"if you no longer go for a gap\" philosophy – and Prost's furious reaction, including his threat to quit F1.
Beyond the title-deciding crash, we look back on the helicopter accident that prematurely ended Alessandro Nannini’s F1 career, and how Roberto Moreno won the scramble for his Benetton seat.
We also cover Johnny Herbert's F1 comeback with Lotus, the end of the road for hopeless backmarkers EuroBrun and Life, and the ambitious unveiling of the Brabham-Yamaha partnership.
In the race itself, we explain how Benetton claimed a surprising one-two with Nelson Piquet and an exhausted and emotional Moreno as the other big hitters fell out of contention, and Edd gets to celebrate a historic podium for home hero Aguri Suzuki. And we look into how Williams ended up fourth and fifth on a day when no McLarens or Ferraris finished.
