Seven-time Grand Prix winner Juan Pablo Montoya joins Tom
Clarkson for the first episode of F1 Beyond The Grid’s LEGENDS
episodes.

Going into the final two races of 2003, Montoya was only three
points behind World Championship leader Michael Schumacher in a
three-way fight for the title, with Kimi Raikkonen just behind
them.

But by the season finale, the Colombian was out of contention –
so where did it all go wrong? Juan Pablo reflects on the highs of
his wins at Monaco and Hockenheim that year, the lows of his
championship-ending collision with Rubens Barrichello, and
whether there was anything he could have done differently to
become World Champion.

Montoya also discusses whether he treated Michael differently to
other drivers on track and addresses their famous incident at
Imola in 2004. He explains how he got the better of teammate Ralf
Schumacher, why he couldn’t be friends with his rivals, and much
more.

Plus, Juan’s son Sebastian drops by to talk about his Formula 3
ambitions this year, what it’s like having an ex-F1 driver as his
dad, and the best piece of advice JPM has given him.
