So glad found this podcast. There's a real warmth between the presenters, lacking in many media teams. Added to that there's a wealth of knowledge about the sport in every episode lacking in many other podcasts and programs about F1.

Description

And Colossally That’s History! (the name a reference to a famous line of Murray Walker commentary) is the podcast that takes an unadulterated look at the earth-shattering events, epic sagas and huge characters that have shaped motor racing history. From Grand Prix racing as a tool of the Nazi war machine to how Ayrton Senna’s death shaped modern F1, hosts Matt Bishop and Richard Williams will discuss and dissect these topics as only they can, bringing new insight and fresh perspectives that help explain how motor racing moved from niche past-time to the multi-billion-dollar sporting spectacle of today. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
