Germany 2000 - Barrichello's gamble pays off
Listen now
Description
Rubens Barrichello claimed an emotional first F1 victory with an inspired decision to stay out on slick tyres as rain fell in the closing stages of the 2000 German Grand Prix.
Edd Straw and Ben Anderson join host Glenn Freeman to look back at how Barrichello upset the odds to win from 18th on the grid, in a race famous for the track invader who was protesting his dismissal after 20 years of working for Mercedes-Benz.
Also discussed are rising tensions between McLaren and Ferrari, Michael Schumacher's start-line tactics coming under fire, the biggest mistake of Jacques Villeneuve's F1 career, Johnny Herbert staying in F1 too long, Peugeot's decision to quit F1, the Turn 1 crash that took out Schumacher, and Jenson Button claiming the best result of his rookie season.
