A Pair Of Modern Heavyweights (F1 Team Genealogy Part 4)

As we inch closer to the end of the Formula 1 "fall break", we inch closer to the end of our F1 Team Genealogy Series.In today's episode, Kathryn and Emily talk the histories of the two most successful modern teams: Red Bull and Mercedes.For Red Bull, it started with a former F1 driver, shifted to become an advertising board for an American car company, and then the brain child of motorsport racer Christian Horner.And for Mercedes, whose history begins with the questions, what would have it been like if Mercedes didn't bow out of Motorsport after the 1955 Le Mans disaster? Decades later, it picks back up with Tyrell racing, a stint as the iconic British American Racing, a hot minute with Honda, the smash hit success with Brawn, before the return of one of the most successful teams in modern motorsport.Episodes We Referenced:F101: We Watched The Brawn GP Documentary On Hulu & You Should Too: https://youtu.be/ktVmXqcFms0?si=Cel4-F9bB-l2gT-dFollow Going Off Track:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/going.off.track/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7wwpnAMPS6du32PcZGl2vv?si=8e229c627d094632Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/going-off-track-with-kathryn-emily/id1699138189 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl7pLj9uEBtSVTF38skGHqg?sub_confirmation=1
