  • Rally Special (Stage)
    Apr 17 2024

    In this rally-themed special stage of an episode, Chris and Martin review Audi vs. Lancia: Race for Glory, chat about the most famous Colin McRae onboard and wonder just how long Tuthill's Rally With No Name 2023 video will stay online before the copyright FIA exclude it for having a cheaty turbo.

    But first we temporarily remove our bobble hats to discuss that maybe Amazon isn't done with the Grand Tour as production companies have been approached to pitch for the Grand Tour.

    Whistles blaring and bobble hats replaced, we settle in to give our thoughts on Race for Glory: Audi vs. Lancia.

    In 'What Has Henry Catchpole Been Upto This Week?' we stick with our theme and revisit some rally legends reborn in the Kimera EVO37 and the utterly delicious Prodrive P25.

    Our joint Youtube pick this episode is the wonder Tuthill Porsche film of the Rally With No Name, which perfectly walks the line between sharing the fun of the event without becoming too much about the fun or the competition. Watch it now before it maybe gets pulled!

    Inspired by the Collecting Cars podcast, we picked our desert island YouTube clips to watch over and over. Despite a whole list of amazing videos, Marty went with Henry Catchpole driving an Aston Martin N430 Vantage on the old Military Road. Chris went even further back to Chris Harris driving an F1 car in the near freezing cold at Silverstone and part 2. A great example of Chris putting the viewer vicariously in the experience, including having Martin Brundle on hand to help.

  • Sand Job, Lionheart and many interviews...
    Mar 19 2024

    In this episode Marty talks about Dan Wheldon, Chris recommends some Drive to Survive episodes, and there are flying dildos.

    But first, Dan Wheldon's life and legacy is coming to the documentary Lionheart.

    Chris has watched Drive to Survive, and Marty hasn't. Is it worth a watch, and which episodes are worth your time? But both have watched Grand Tour presents Sand Job.

    In 'What has Henry Catchpole been upto this week?' it's the F.A.T Ice Race in Aspen - or Goodwood on Ice - with some bizarrely rare and special cars raised up and given studded tyres.

    For some reason, we're been drenched in interviews this month, with Ben Collins chatting with Top Gear mastermind Andy Wilman, while Dan and Andrew of The Intercooler talking really inside baseball with James May.

    However, we couldn't avoid talking about Red Bull's challenge to build a drone that can keep up with an F1 car, which may change the way we see Formula cars on the limit. It's deeply impressive and looks like a flying dildo.

  • Michael Mann's Ferrari
    Feb 7 2024

    Chris and Marty are back with a lengthy, waffly review of Michael Mann's Ferrari movie. Is it more than you can afford, pal? Listen to find out. Elsewhere in the episode, we talk about Brad Pitt's F1 movie filming at the Rolex 24 and Harry Metcalfe putting the farmer's welly into BMW's latest EV effort.

    But first, the Brad Pitt F1 film was seen filming endurance racing scenes at the Daytona 24 hours. Also Andy Wilman shared a trailer for the new Grand Tour special A Sand Job on his Instagram, which comes out Feb 16th.

    For the review, we look at Michael Mann's Ferrari.

    In 'What has Henry Catchpole been upto this week?', Henry is back in his bobble-hatted, historically focussed wheel house with the mad Lancia Delta S4 Stradale

    For his Youtube pick this week, Chris followed listening to a Smoking Tire to visiting the Vehicle Virgins Youtube channel and the McLaren Speedtail video. Marty went with Harry Metcalf's thorough review of the BMW i5 M60 X-Drive.
