In this week’s episode, Kevin interviews former editor-in-chief and freelance motorsport writer Damien Smith about his favorite season – 1986. The season is best known for the intense three-way title fight between Nelson Piquet, Nigel Mansell, and eventual champion Alain Prost. Kevin and Damien delve into the memorable moments of the season, such as Piquet’s iconic overtake in Hungary, internal team rivalries, Ayrton Senna’s emergence, and the tragic death of Elio de Angelis. They also compare the Autosport and Autocourse top 10 rankings from that time.
