He’s renowned as one of racing’s toughest nuts – a driver who
gave his all on the race track and didn’t suffer fools off it.
And this week on F1’s official podcast, Beyond The Grid,
supported by Bose, 1980 World Champion Alan Jones regales host
Tom Clarkson with no-nonsense tales from his extraordinary
career.

Having arrived in Europe from his native Australia in the early
70s, Jones worked his way into F1 before becoming a Grand Prix
winner with Shadow in 1977. But it’s with Williams that AJ is
inextricably linked, winning 11 world championship races for the
squad, as well as their first drivers’ crown. Forthright and
brutally honest, get ready for a no-holds-barred account of
Jones’ career and rivals, including his flirtations with Ferrari,
falling out with team mate Carlos Reutemann and his regretted
early retirement. No punches are pulled! (Contains explicit
