The Flying Lap with Peter Windsor

For this list, we've gathered viewer comments online, via Twitter and Facebook, with additional suggestions from Peter Windsor and today's special guests, Ian Titchmarsh & Jonathan Williams. As a race commentator and all-round expert, Ian Titchmarsh has been synonymous with motor racing, and British motor racing in particular, for over 40 years. He is an active member of the BRDC; he is the anchorman announcer for the British Grand Prix; and his legal, encyclopaedic mind makes him ideally-suited to evaluating the hundreds of talented drivers never to have raced in F1. The son of Sir Frank Williams, Jonathan Williams justifiably has a reputation for being one of the best talent-scouts in the motor racing business. He is an integral part of WilliamsF1, specialising in driver development and management, but he has also worked for Dallara and has close ties with the iSport GP2 team. It should be a fun day. 

Guests include Todd McCandless, online from the U.S., creator of one of the most prolifically-read formula one blogs on the internet, Formula1blog.com; and in the studio, Mike Doodson, who has worked at the forefront of British motor racing journalism since the late 1960's. This episode will also include video post-race exclusive interviews with Phil Prew, Senior Race Engineer, Vodafone McLaren Mercedes and Adam Parr, CEO, AT&T Williams.

Brian Redman's mercurial F1 career in the late 1960's was followed quickly by staggering success in World Championship Sports Car racing. An anchorman for the legendary Gulf Ford GT40 and Porsche 917 teams, Brian has won on all types of circuit and in all conditions. He went on to dominate in F5000 and GT racing and thus to consolidate his position as one of the greatest racing drivers of his time. Todd McCandless of http://Formula1Blog.com and respected journalist and FIA Press Commission member Mike Doodson will join Peter in talking with Brian.

Today's episode co-incides with the 80th birthday of that great American racing driver, Dan Gurney. Accordingly, we will be welcoming Dan, a 4-time F1 winner, onto the show live from the headquarters of All-American Racers in Santa Ana, California, mainly to say "Happy Birthday" but also to talk about machinery like the 1967 Eagle-Weslake - a car generally considered by F1 enthusiasts world-wide to be the most beautiful of all time - and Dan's amazing racing life. We'll also be looking back at the Malaysian Grand Prix and ahead to the UBS Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghai with two other special guests - Sergio Rinland, the ex-Williams, ex-Sauber engineer who also worked for Dan Gurney, and Rob Wilson, the world's leading driver coach.
