Alain Prost. Legendary F1 driver? Absolutely. Four time world champion? Yes indeed. Former team owner? Erm, I guess so. Successful team owner? Well… not quite. Today we’re taking a look back at Alain’s Prost Grand Prix operation and its rollercoaster ride of dizzying highs and crashing lows.

We cover everything from the initial seeds of team ownership, via the rumours of an all-French team dream brought about through French propaganda, and onto the entire tenure of Prost Grand Prix and their time in F1, with a wildly swinging tale from championship underdogs, to total bankruptcy. Just how did a driver, praised for his tactical mastery on track, end up making a series of blunders and errors whilst sat on the pitwall?

Plus No More Jockeys fans will rejoice at the mention of Mert Aksac.
