Joining host Tom Clarkson for the weekend review are journalist and presenter Lee McKenzie, 1996 F1 world champion Damon Hill and Aston Martin ambassador Pedro de la Rosa, who sheds more light on the post-race drama that saw Alonso lose his podium finish, before regaining it and being confirmed in the 100-rostrum club.
