Episode Details

Sir Jackie Stewart, three-time F1 champion and tireless safety advocate, reflects on how Formula 1 has transformed from a deadly arena to a far safer sport—thanks largely to the groundbreaking safety measures he helped pioneer. He recalls a brutal era when crashes often meant death, races continued even after fatalities, and identifying victims was sometimes impossible without their helmets. Today, those tragedies are rare, but Stewart laments that the raw drama of racing has dimmed. Still, he takes pride in his legacy: saving lives, changing the sport’s culture, and ensuring future drivers can push harder without fear of catastrophe.
