==History== * The series' first episode took a look at the opening round of the [[1993 Formula One season]], the [[1993 South African Grand Prix]] at [[Kyalami]], which was the last [[South African Grand Prix]] ever held. * A special edition of the show took place on September 26, 2003, during the weekend of the [[2003 United States Grand Prix]], when [[Jackie Stewart]] joined Hobbs to take a look back at the [[1973 German Grand Prix]] at the [[Nürburgring]], which Stewart won. * On April 2, 2004, a special re-broadcast of the [[1994 San Marino Grand Prix]] was aired to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the tragic deaths of [[Roland Ratzenberger]] and [[Ayrton Senna]]. The broadcast, as [[Steve Matchett]] said in the introduction to it, was not cut or edited to exclude Senna's fatal crash. * Matchett worked on [[Johnny Herbert]]'s car as a mechanic at Benetton. Herbert and Matchett both claimed their maiden Formula One wins in the [[1995 British Grand Prix]], a race perhaps made most famous for the fact that Michael Schumacher and [[Damon Hill]] crashed out of the race while battling for the lead. At episode's end, Matchett talked about how nervous he was during the closing laps of the race, and how much the win had meant to him. Said Matchett, "I freely confess that those closing laps at [[Silverstone Circuit|Silverstone]] rank amongst the most stressful times of my life! They seemed to take forever!" Herbert and Matchett would team up for another Formula One win in 1995 — the [[1995 Italian Grand Prix]] at [[Autodromo Nazionale Monza|Monza]], another race in which Schumacher and Hill crashed out together.
