He used to prank Senna as well, that involved a briefcase too. Ayrton had a specially made new briefcase with gold locks and fittings on it, he showed it to Berger when they were flying in a helicopter and Gerhardt threw it out the window ! He did get the case back though, i think they must have been close to landing at a circuit or something.
This is really starting to be a great up load with these two so so relaxed and telling us all what happened behind the blockade !!!!!!!!!!!!!! And probably still does ??????
Eddie before I retired I was often mistaken fot you. At Loch Fyne restaurant Bristol customers were asking for selfies... and the waiter said he used to serve EJ in Virginia Waters and you do look like him, he's a short ass as well! My Customers and colleagues called me Eddie. My wife and daughters were going to see the filming of Noel Edmonds Deal or no Deal. However one of my daughters dropped out so I went and was chosen to be the man wearing the bowler hat as, being old I had loads of funny stories. My moment of fame. However whenever Noel came to me asking about me being mistaken for EJ all I ever said was "To be sure" in an awful attempt at your accent, again and again. my minute of fame blown!
You can't blame Eddie for taking it very seriously. At that time, they just lost the Honda engine to BAR and have to resort to buying customer Ford engines. The BMW engines was the most powerful on the grid and even if there was any wisper of them opening up to supplying another team more so if its supplying for free, any privateer team principal would do everything to get it. The best thing is Ron Dennis is genuinely worried that Eddie was going to break the Ford deal on the premise of getting the BMW engines because he would definately do it if he was in the same shoes.
fkn hilarious just discovered this podcast was a big fan until 2006 would be great to get these storys out while still possible as people age n forget n pass on but truly would be great as drivers always had to be a little smart with the press but now they can easily spill the gossip n secrets to millions of fans
Gerhard also pranked the late great Ayrton Senna. He got Ayrton's passport & glued a picture of a woman's breasts over Ayrton's passport photo. The customs officer was rather confused........
You know when Eddie says it’s a bad idea to invite him over that it will be a brilliant episode, DC must’ve been chuffed to bits 😂
You know Eddie was secretly hating this.
Gerhard is absolutely hilarious. Please have him back on.
They could have a whole series of him being on
Together with Jean, they have so much to tell of their antics at Ferrari 😬
As an Irishman, I believe this makes Gerhard an even bigger legend than he already was. Absolutely fucking amazing.
Berger is such a likeable guy that he almost seem not capable of such a prank, making it an epic one 😂

Gerhard was my favorite driver maybe more as a character. He never forgot to enjoy life.
Absolutely fantastic! What a character Gerhard is, no wonder he lasted so long in the sport.
This is the most hilarious prank story I ever heard! Fantastic, Gerhard! Bravo! 😂😂😂
First of all there's so much to unpack, I had no idea Gerhard Berger was so funny. Second you can see Eddie is STILL mad!
The tale about Senna in the helicopter and his briefcase is a stunner
No wonder Berger was best friends with Senna. Both did some insane pranks together.
I kept laughing at each stage I thought it was over but it kept going, and going… 😂😂
Gerhard is an evil doer, he is a mad man, he always was and you got to love him for that :D
Gerhard always has a funny story to tell.
Thanks Gerhard it was always a lot of fun, your drives in your era of f1
Lads this the best podcast ever! Gerhard you evil man but that’s hilarious
This is really starting to be a great up load with these two so so relaxed and telling us all what happened behind the blockade !!!!!!!!!!!!!! And probably still does ??????
How could you not die laughing during Gerhard’s entire story about pranking Jordan.
That was brilliant! It's the funniest story ever.😂 I love this podcast so much. It's the most interesting and entertaining one out there.
GIVE US THE FULL INTERVIEW!! Please!!
he's such a good storyteller haha
I love them. Legends.
I just listened to this on the pod. Love that there's video of it being told too. Such a great story!
What a story, loved that! 😂
This Podcast ist brilliant enough, but Gerhard prooves, again, to just be the best.
Eddie before I retired I was often mistaken fot you.

There are about 4 punchlines in there! Fantastic.
This is just gold
please post full podcast with video on UA-cam this is great

Yeah, it's kinda cruel but such a good prank. Jordan would have been a lot more competitive with those bmw monsters pushing them along.
This is brilliant!
Absolutely brilliant!
What a fantastic story.

Berger and Senna played practical jokes on each other through their time as teammates. However, Gerhard instigated most of those jokes.
One of the last real human beings in F1.
That would be a hilarious story...Jordan-BMW and the prank that started all.....
OH MY GOD THATS ALL I CAN SAY
This is where F1 rumours start! 😂

The only way this could have been funnier is if Eddie canned his Ford deal.
