The 1996 Portuguese Grand Prix is famous for one thing: Jacques Villeneuve's thrilling around-the-outside pass on Michael Schumacher's Ferrari at the fearsome final corner, which set him up for a charge to victory that kept that year's title battle alive all the way to the final race in Japan.
Matt Beer and Ben Anderson join a giddy Glenn Freeman to revisit one of Villeneuve's greatest days in F1, also looking at how Schumacher really reacted to the move in private.
We also discuss Damon Hill somewhat limping to the title after starting the year so well, plus how Stewart and Jordan did battle for his signature for 1997 before he chose Arrows. There's also talk of Ralf Schumacher rejecting McLaren to sign for Jordan, Sauber landing its Ferrari engine deal, Eddie Irvine benefitting from some rare Ferrari testing, and what happened after McLaren team-mates David Coulthard and Mika Hakkinen collided during the race.
