Antonelli Dominates Monaco! | Monaco Grand Prix Review

Autosport's Kevin Turner and Stuart Codling break down a dramatic Monaco Grand Prix, analysing the biggest winners and losers, the latest FIA ADUO updates, and a race packed with controversy. The weekend belonged to Andrea Kimi Antonelli, who secured his fifth consecutive victory after Max Verstappen's race was compromised by engine issues at the start. The young Italian controlled proceedings from the front and held his nerve through a standing restart following Charles Leclerc's heavy crash and the resulting red flag. Monaco also delivered plenty of post-race drama, with investigations and penalties creating uncertainty right up to the chequered flag. One of the biggest casualties was Pierre Gasly, who lost a podium finish after receiving penalties, promoting Isack Hadjar to another impressive podium result despite driving an underperforming Red Bull. From Antonelli's title charge and Verstappen's setback to the FIA's latest technical developments and all the key talking points from Monaco, Kevin and Stuart bring you all the latest F1 news.

Top 10 F1 drivers of the 1970s | Autosport Retro

It feels like our series on the top Formula 1 drivers of each keeps decade gets harder. More races and drivers make the selection tougher and the 1970s is no exception. As usual, we’ve considered many factors, including level of success, machinery at their disposal, longevity and how highly the drivers were rated by their contemporaries. Success outside the relevant decade is not considered. Perhaps the greatest absentee in this list is four-time 1970s GP winner Gilles Villeneuve. He was undoubtedly one of the best drivers by the end of the decade but was only just getting into his stride as the 1970s came to an end – be sure to check out our upcoming 1980s list if you’re a fan of the great French-Canadian… Learn more about your ad choices.

Autosport Retro - From The Archive - The 1982 Driver Strike

Autosport Editor-in-Chief Kevin Turner sits down with renowned motorsport writer Maurice Hamilton to revisit one of Formula 1’s most extraordinary flashpoints – the drivers’ strike at the 1982 South African Grand Prix. As tensions simmered between the drivers and the FIA, the introduction of controversial superlicence terms by president Jean-Marie Balestre prompted a united response from the grid. Led by Niki Lauda, the drivers took a stand that would see them barricade themselves in protest, exposing deep fractures in the sport’s governance and a breakdown in communication that defined the standoff. Hamilton and Turner explore how the dispute unfolded, the hastily brokered agreement that followed, and why confusion lingered over what had actually been resolved. The episode also reflects on the wider context of a tumultuous 1982 season, one overshadowed by tragedy. The deaths of Gilles Villeneuve and Riccardo Paletti, along with the career-ending injuries sustained by Didier Pironi, underscored the dangers of the era and left an indelible mark on Formula 1 history.
