We\u2019ve got something a little bit different for you on this episode. Earlier this year, to mark the 40th anniversary of Prodrive, Edd Straw paid a visit to its Banbury HQ to interview its co-founder and chairman David Richards.\xa0\nMany F1 fans will remember Richards through his time with the Benetton and BAR F1 teams, and may know that he\u2019s currently chairman of Motorsport UK. But he also came very close to bringing Prodrive - so successful in rallying, touring cars and sportscars - into F1 on two occasions. In fact, you could argue that Prodrive is the best team to never race in F1\u2026\nWe hope you enjoy Edd\u2019s wide-ranging chat with David Richards, who has many a tale to tell about F1 in the 2000s and 2010s.\xa0\n\nWant extra podcast content?
