About this listen

On this day in Formula One history, controversy reigned at Silverstone. We revisit the 1994 British Grand Prix, where Michael Schumacher’s refusal to serve a stop-go penalty — and Benetton’s failure to respect a black flag — sparked one of the sport’s most dramatic disciplinary showdowns. The fallout reshaped the championship and handed Damon Hill an emotional home victory.

We also celebrate the birthday of Jean-Pierre Jarier, the flamboyant Frenchman known for his pace, personality, and near misses, and recall Jim Clark’s composed but gritty win at the 1965 British Grand Prix — a performance marked by oil pressure trouble and mechanical restraint.
