Bring Back V10s: Why Benetton's post-Schumacher era was so rough

I think it could have been brilliant.

And I do think that the Villeneuve factor does mean that you've got two Williams drivers taking points off of each other, which is always my answer to what if Hill had stayed in 97 as well?

Bring Back V10s: Why Benetton's post-Schumacher era was so rough

I always think Schumacher wins that championship in a Ferrari because Hill and Villeneuve take too many points off each other.

So I'm going to go with a brilliant season, actually, and a narrow Schumacher title win.

Bring Back V10s: Why Benetton's post-Schumacher era was so rough

Just because, as you guys have kind of said, Schumacher's not going to leave scraps on the table.

I mean, Lacey and Berger didn't leave scraps.

They left feasts.

Schumacher's not going to allow Williams that kind of wriggle room to take points off each other to be scrappy.

So, yeah, you've changed my mind.

You both changed my mind, even though your conclusions were different and you disagreed with each other.

But yeah, let's let's leave it there.

So when I planned this episode out initially, it was going to be about both of the Lacey Berger years.

We're going to do you know, we're going to include 97 in full as well.

But actually, there was so much to talk about with 1996.

The Race F1 Podcast
Bring Back V10s: Why Benetton's post-Schumacher era was so rough

And I feel like that was more interesting in a lot of ways because it was the first year of Benetton going, Oh God, we can't do this anymore.

Bring Back V10s: Why Benetton's post-Schumacher era was so rough

So maybe we'll save the 97 stuff for another time.
