The Autosport F1 Podcast

Marking 25 years since the passing of one of Formula 1's most iconic figures, Kevin Turner is joined by veteran motorsport journalist and author Maurice Hamilton for a deep dive into the life and legacy of Ken Tyrrell.

In this episode, Maurice shares intimate personal memories of Tyrrell—who became a surrogate father figure in the paddock—exploring the highs of world championship glory with Matra and Cosworth, the audacious six-wheeled P34 project, and the painful controversies of the 1984 season.
