This isn’t just a race review.
This is the story of the most controversial moment in Formula 1 history — the Crashgate at the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix.
A race that looked chaotic at the time…
…but was anything but.
In this episode:
- Why the 2008 Singapore GP mattered so much in a title fight decided by 1 point
- How Fernando Alonso went from nowhere to winning — and why it didn’t make sense
- The exact moment Nelson Piquet Jr. crashed… and why it changed everything
- How Flavio Briatore and Pat Symonds made the plan work
- The fallout: bans, cover-ups, and how F1 tried to contain the scandal
- And whether Felipe Massa was actually robbed of the 2008 championship
⸻
Nearly 20 years later…
…the race still counts, the title still stands…
…but the story isn’t finished. 🏁
