Well... what an almighty mess.

Back on the streets of Pau in 2009 it looked like a famous underdog win for an Independent was coming in the World Touring Car Championship. And then... *Cue a rogue Chevrolet Cruze*

Dan Mason and Stephen Whitfeld recall the horror of not just that, but 10 of the WORST safety car-induced moments of madness in motorsport.

Yes, it includes Taki Inoue.

FEATURING: Special guest David John of Team Kiwi Racing!

It was the accidental enduro before the enduros...

100 laps of Winton was a marathon for V8 Supercars back in 2004, and it ended in the most dramatic way possible with a late, LATE surprise winner.

Stephen Brunsdon and Dan Mason unpick Cam McConville's great win down under, victims of the horrendous boggy infield, and why a daft panel show should be mandatory for all race series...

Plus there's a special treat, as Team Kiwi Racing's David John talks about Bairdo's pole, their underdog battles and the late, great Jason Richards.

FEATURING: Special guest Johnny Mowlem!

Remember the American Le Mans Series? It was all the rage. Four classes, huge races, and mouth-watering cars... and then came the 12 Hours of Sebring in 2007, where one class was decided in the last corner under abrupt fireworks.

Dan Mason, Laura Donaghy and Joe Hudson re-live Ferrari vs Porsche, diesels designed in pubs, and cheeky Sebring shortcutters.

Sportscar ace Johnny Mowlem also drops in to talk about his part in the battle, and his own F1 dreams.

FEATURING: Special guest Greg Murphy!

Super Touring was taking over the world of motorsport in the 1990s - including down under.

Among this, a truly spectacular contest between three V8 Supercar legends played out at the old Lakeside circuit, featuring a three-wide moment destined for the Louvre.

Eric Barnes and Dan Mason wax lyrical about the 90s, Super Touring Power and the moment Tony Longhurst briefly became John Cleland. *BIFFO!*

Greg Murphy kindly joins us to talk about his times with Audi, his chase of an Indycar career, and his love of Brands Hatch.

FEATURING: Special guest Timo Scheider!

How cool was German Touring Car racing? We all know the answer.

It was even cooler when UK fanboys like our hosts Dan Mason and Steve Whitfield got to see it at the Brands Hatch Indy circuit, and 2008 served up a CLASSIC.

*And that wasn't because VW Polo Cup was still a thing.

We're delighted to have the winner of that DTM race with us in this episode, as double champion Timo Scheider recalls his 'best win', his battles with Paul di Resta, and how close he got to an F1 seat with Benetton...

Who wants to win? Anybody? .....No? Fine.

They say the mountain makes up its own mind - on this occasion it didn't seem to know which way to turn!

The result was two cars that started at the back of the field, and had crashed already, sorting it out over one lap after 8 hours of racing down under.

Sam Hall joins Dan Mason to digress from the point regularly - from team-mates binning each other off, to the safety car's mishap, and what team orders Triple Eight COULD have tried...

Overtakes around the outside + Estoril? = Iconic.

Move over Villeneuve, because in 2004 it was Christijan Albers who wowed the DTM crowds in a classic race with fellow future superstars Mattias Ekstrom and Gary Paffett.

But whatever happened to him? Well, he scored points with Minardi(!)

And what about that grid? Well Dan Mason and Steve Whitfield have donned their fanboy caps to discuss the best F1-to-DTM swaps in history as Alesi and Frentzen go door-to-door in Portugal.
