F1 - the plane that never takes off

Episode Summary

Our two obsessions - Formula 1 and 50s experimental aircrafts - overlap in interesting ways with technology, innovation, and creation. Both have a long history of providing technological development that has much wider implications than simply making fast racing cars and powerful aircraft. Note: This episode was recorded on the Friday before the terrible crash that took place during Sunday's Bahrain F1 race. Thankfully Grosjean walked away from the incident. And not that we needed one, but we got a reminder that these drivers are brave, and that the sport has come a long way since 1950, and thankfully so.
