The remarkable racing career of Timo Glock is the subject of this week’s FFS! The former Jordan driver joins DC and Eddie to talk about his surprise points scoring debut for EJ and his experience of being at Toyota during their unsuccessful stint in F1. Plus reflections on his unwitting role in deciding the 2008 World Championship.
And if that’s not all… after weeks of debate it’s finally decision time. Is it the end of the road for Eddie’s signature growl?

My mum wrote to Jordan F1 years ago (around the year 2000) and she asked about whether they offered racing scholarships (for me). They sent her a really nice letter back and unfortunately they didn’t offer scholarships. lol It was nice of them to reply though. As a proud Irish man I loved it when Jordan was in F1, the team was a breath of fresh air in the corporate world of F1 in the 90’s/2000’s. I thinks it brought back some of the spirit of the privateer teams from the 50’s and 60’s

Your mum seems like a legend! Sorry your scholarship didn't work out.
@davidchapman3042 12 күн бұрын
Well,the fact that jordan of all teams replied with that nice letter politely informing they didn’t do scholarships… it mustve been true when eddie said few podcasts earlier that jordan of all teams recieved the most fan letters every day. And judging from the itv bits of jordan and the marketing crew, that was bravo job done from them

Wow, Timo's input really explains a lot about what is happening to Alpine right now and with Jaguar/Toyota back then. It really shows up that no matter how much resources you have, you are going to lose if you misuse them, but also stay still and don't take risks. And it's surprisingly not surprising that huge brands still don't get how F1 works.

Thank you so much for this quite recent but top1 podcast. Everytime a delight! The growl becomes legendary. Life's serious enough. There must be room for a bit fun with forever young Eddie Jordan.

By the way I met Eddie Jordan in '94 at a Hockenheim restaurant together with Gary Anderson wearing a Mickey Mouse t-shirt. You can also be a strong business man and still going through life with a sort of an eye wink. Should be a model for many CEO's.. ;).

On board footage demonstrates that Glock did a astonishing job keeping the Toyota on track that famous Brazil showdown and almost nobody gives credit for that and instead he had to deal with conspiracy theories

To get young drivers in, why not have each team run 3 cars with the third car reserved for a driver with less than 3 years experience? Reduce the number of teams down to 7 or 8. And when one team produces a car significantly faster, there are 3 drivers in the same car so more racing going on.

The incident gave us a preview of the DTS era. I always loved how F1 fans could have their favourite drivers/teams but could stay objective and enjoy a good race. Now everyone is #TeamMax or #TeamLewis, and every racing incident is attempted murder.
