Joe Rogan and Chris Harris rip apart a decade-old Formula-One scandal

From the Spygate – McLaren, 2007 season scandal to the Secret Fuel Tank – BAR, 2005 season scandal, Formula One has been embroiled in such controversies that if people get to know about them then their trust in the sport might be hindered. According to automoti͏ve journalist, Chris Harris, racing has so much cheating and scandal that he can write an entire book on the basis of that but still, the fans would prefer not to read it.

The automotive journalist recently sat down with Joe Rogan to have a conversation about the perplexities of the racing world on “Joe Rogan Experience #2199” and amid the conversation, Harris revealed a story about a famous racer that caught the multi-million dollar podcaster off-guard. “I remember hearing a guy called Win Percy, who was a touring car driver from the UK in the sort of 60s and 70s, describing how there was a famous commentator we had, called Murray Walker,” said Harris.

He further added, “He was the voice of our motorsport for 40 years. He had a very distinctive voice. He was a lovely man; I met him a few times. He would often describe Win Percy getting out of this particular car he’d been racing, covered in sweat because it was such a monster to drive. But it turned out that it was a V12 and it was very, very thirsty.”So, to make sure that when they did a fuel check at the end of the race, to make sure they were abiding by the rules, he would be furiously pumping a hand pump underneath the seat to inflate a bladder in the fuel tank to cut off the volume. “
