1997 Clive James Formula 1 Show

  • Shortly before the 1997 F1 season kicked off on its brand new channel of ITV, Clive James hosted a chat show featuring FOURTEEN of the current F1 drivers. This is probably the largest assemblage of F1 drivers in one studio. Clearly they all had personality and a good sense of humour that night and the questions were in good humour too!
    Michael Schumacher didn't come to the studio, but he did an interview via satellite so at least he tried. Stirling Moss, Jackie Stewart and Nigel Mansell also came to the studio with their old cars to discuss how they differed from the cars of 1997. I don't see this sort of show ever happening again, not only because current F1 drivers are not allowed to show their personalities, but mostly because they don't have personalities. To watch a dozen F1 drivers sucking up to the sponsors and their bosses doesn't seem so appealing.
    It's getting harder and harder to avoid the copyright police to bring you these unique programs, so I'm having to make slight modifications to the content by deleting certain scenes, as you will see. Luckily, it doesn't really detract from the programme.

    I sorta feel bad for Vincenzo Sospiri. Here he is, in the tiny 3-month window where he had the elite title of "F1 driver", and you can just feel the excitement and pride that radiated from him, joking around with Fisichella quite a bit throughout the program. He was named as a Lola driver in December 96... I believe this was early-March 97.... and the whole team folded around him a few weeks later... and that was it. F1 career over, attending only that Australian GP and never getting past a grand prix qualifying session. Never started a race. It's a real shame.

      Watched him win the FFrord festival in the rain a few years earlier, great skills passed loads of people, didn't know he started an F1 season

      Your comment reminds us just how many very talented drivers never get a decent chance in F1. Talent often isn’t enough.

    Never seen this before. Would be difficult to gather so many top names in one place these days. Must say however, Clive James, absolute legend. In the same way Murray Walker brought the races alive as they were happening, Clive, in the season reviews of 82, 84 and 86 was basically my comfort food for years. I only wish he reviewed them all.

    Among this group of amazing F1 personalities Ken Tyrrell just needed one sentence to shine the most. Until Murray Walker came on stage, obviously.
    It's incredible how much hype there was on HHFrentzen pre 1997 season.
