I listened to this on a long drive last Friday. Thoroughly enjoyed it, although I didn't agree with all of his opinions on modern F1. The stories of the early years at McLaren were great. He doesn't sound too much of a Ron Dennis fan does he...?!

I look forward to listening to it. I understand from various sources that AC is not a man short of a strong opinion but anybody who does serious classic rallying with his 98 year old mum is ok by me.

OP thanks for the link.

Very good listen and the Motor Sport guys obviously thought the same as they didn't speak too much just laughed a lot!

The bit about Bruce getting into a newly built car and leaving tyre marks on the workshop floor made me laugh out loud!

Must be just me then - I thought he came across as distressingly arrogant, and frankly a bit of a knob. I couldn't listen to all of it, and deleted after about 30 mins. It wasn't helped by the usual Motor Sport sycophancy.
