We’ve built a Feature library that is mainly 1-on-1 convos but we’re breaking the mould with this one….and it was so worth it.

Rusty shoots the breeze with ‘Bieber’ and ‘Camo’ who are reveling in the step forward that BRT has taken in Supercars this year.

How motor racing started for each of them? The race cars in the Cameron family garage and has Aaron had a steer of them?

DJ’ing and why it’s an escape for Jimmy and is there any correlations to his day job.
There’s a heart warming family story Aaron shares too that is truly inspiring.

What it was like at Garry Roger’s Motorsport for both of them and the hard yards they did in that period of their careers.

Enjoy being part of this ripper round table chat and get to know this likeable pair a little better.

The grounded approach the team is taking that comes right from the top.

How the relentless off-season work at BRT has filled them with confidence and a determination by the drivers to repay the faith as they say.

Jimmy is making the most of his new surroundings and we look back on his Bathurst 2025 podium with the benefit of a bit of time to process it.

A turning point for Aaron at Adelaide last year and how he rose to the occasion.

Plus the wave of new supporters (all in BRT merch) that love the underdog story.

And ‘Flying High’….Sky Diving indoors. Are either of them ready for a cameo in the next Point Break movie?

This convo flies by. It’s like the three of them are at a BBQ and you’re within earshot. Enjoy.

The 2026 Formula 1 season is here, and Mark Howard and Greg Rust are back to break down everything you need to know ahead of the new season.

Rusty and Howie dive into the biggest storylines heading into the new season — from new regulations and engine changes to Ferrari’s much-talked-about “upside-down wing”. They also unpack the arrival of Audi into Formula 1 with the Revolut F1 team, the introduction of a new 11th team with Cadillac, and what it all means for the future of the grid.

There’s also plenty of focus on the Aussie hope Oscar Piastri - and whether McLaren’s “Papaya Rules” will hold firm in 2026 - before the boys answer listener questions and reveal their predictions for the top three drivers of the season.

This special F1 season preview is brought to you by BP, technology partner of the Audi Revolut F1 team, with your chance to win a trip to the Singapore Grand Prix.

We don’t often get administrators on the pod but as he prepared for one of MA’s biggest weeks of the year Josh kindly swung by the studio.

Josh Blanksby has only been in the job for a few weeks but he brings over 20-years experience in the horse racing, wagering, media and hospitality sectors.

The former CEO of the Melbourne Racing Club talks about his observations from the first few weeks in the job and gearing up for the Australian Grand Prix at Albert Park.

Why he’s conscious of the balance between grassroots competition and the headline acts.
Threats and opportunities; our passionate army of 12,000 volunteers and giving them the support and encouragement to grow their skillset.

You’ll get a sense of Josh’s leadership style that he brings to an organisation that is so community-focused and what is transferrable from his prior experience.

It’s an open and engaging chat with a leader who is acutely aware of the reigns he’s taken and his commitment to an open-door policy.

With Supercars gearing up for its second round alongside F1 at Albert Park we thought it was a good chance for you to get to know the sport’s new play-by-play commentators a little better.

Chad Neylon, Matt Naulty and Richard Craill have each walked different roads to get to this point and have become good friends along the way.  They’ll share the lead calling role throughout the season.
Why they are proper car (and bike) fans, the hard yards they’ve done across multiple forms of Motorsport, the grassroots and PA commentary that helped shape them and some of the impressive jobs they’ve done internationally too.

From a shared love of ‘The Simpsons’ to the classic bike in the Neylon family plus the scars on Craillsy’s hands from working on his first car (he still owns it and won’t part with it) as well as the King of Story telling - why Naulty also has a forklift driver’s license.

Much has been written and said about the sport’s big broadcast changes this year. This chat isn’t about reigniting that…..quite the opposite. The boys are all acutely aware of the magnitude of this job opportunity and very respectful of the legends who came before them.

Why Rusty thought a shortcast would be long enough for this one we’ll never know. This is a ripper pub style convo between four Motorsport mates. Enjoy…

It’s one of the biggest weeks of the year and Rusty is in Melbourne for the Australian Grand Prix.
While the spotlight might be on McLaren’s Oscar Piastri there are Aussies hoping to follow in his footsteps.

Countryman James Wharton is back in Formula 3 for a second season but this time he reunites with the Prema Team.

He talks about spending summer in New Zealand keeping match fit in Toyota’s ultra competitive Formula Regional class against a third of this year’s F3 field.

Living in Italy (he’s been there since before the pandemic) and being away from family & friends in his early teens while focusing on a career in racing.

Getting the chance to race in F2 last year and why it’s his clear target for 2027.

We also talk Ferrari Academy, whether his rivals in the F3 paddock can remain friends, and the hand picked team he wanted for this year’s championship.

Plus the old school set of wheels he keeps back home & why he loves it so much.
James is unapologetically focused on the road he’s chosen & that comes through in this fast paced convo.

From Supercars CEO James Warburton’s faith in him before The Bend had even been built to the global award it received that he at first thought was a prank.

The importance of forging a relationship with Dorna and the fascinating Covid period convos with Formula One management.

Why he can’t stand still and the message for other promoters and circuit owners on acting now to stay relevant.

Plus the big news around MotoGP’s move to the streets of Adelaide from Phillip Island in 2027. Why it didn’t end up at The Bend & his part in bringing the key players together as a proud South Aussie including a secret track inspection after the Adelaide Grand Final last year.

And what about the rumours of World Superbikes heading this way too?

This isn’t just for motor racing fans. Business owners will be glued to his insights in this area too. And Sam shares a few ‘life lessons’ that are takeaways for us all. Hope you enjoy the listen as much as we did during the record.

You’ll know Sam & the Shahin name from the incredible complex they’ve created in South Australia - The Bend Motorsport Park.

This is an incredible story of a family leaving its war torn homeland for what they hoped would be a better life down under.

An ad for a service station & how it leapt out at Sam’s father - the beginning of a dynasty in this space built on the back of hard work, vision & drive.

How Sam left a promising career in medicine to work in the family business & the lengths he went to ‘tool up’ for the role.

Where the idea for The Bend came from, the process to get it over the line, and the journey of discovery that took him right round the world to understand the best way to build it. 

From the moment Sam candidly begins speaking you’ll be drawn into this conversation and he kindly shares details of his life and how it lead to Motorsport (in his 40’s) that aren’t widely known.

Imagine riding your motorbike from Germany to Mount Panorama.

That’s exactly what Romolo Liebchen did! The former Audi Sport Customer Racing boss loves the #B12hr and has had this dream for a while now.

How he made it a reality, the incredible places he visited along the way, the planning, the bike & the challenges he encountered.

Plus where he’s off to next and the insane k’s he’s chalked up on two wheels during his lifetime.

We also chat about Audi’s change of direction in relation to its Customer R8 GT program and the big move into Formula One.

This little known story piqued Rusty’s interest when he saw the bike parked outside the Melbourne Performance Centre garage over the weekend while making a doco on the history making Quinn Family entry. 

Romolo’s story is fascinating. Enjoy the ride.

We’ve got the voice of Radio Le Mans on the pod for the first time and they recorded the ep in the National Motor Racing Museum at Mount Panorama!

Let’s face it between Rusty and John it was always going to be a big ask to keep the chat to a shortcast duration so there’s over half an hour of convo for you to enjoy ahead of this weekend’s race.

From human interest stories like the Quinn entry where driving duties will be shared across three generations of the family to the headline grabbing return of MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi.  He’s here because he wants to be!

Why this event has become so well regarded internationally not just because of the lure of this classic race track.

Can Maro Engel break a bit of a Bathurst hoodoo? And some of the standout Aussies in the field including Supercars champion Chaz Mostert and his rival who went so, so close to claiming that title last year - Broc Feeney.

Plus some of the other stories to follow like Kenny Habul, Matt Campbell, BMW’s hopes of going back-to-back and the highly anticipated grudge match between Chev and Ford as the Corvette and the Mustang GT3 machines line-up for this unforgiving 12 hour race.

Make sure you visit the National Motor Racing Museum the next time you get to Bathurst. Cars, bikes and all sorts of racing disciplines are celebrated with an incredible collection on display https://museumsbathurst.com.au/nmrm/

For a time, Grant Denyer - the Gold Logie-winning racer and TV host who’s in our library - was simply Craig’s son. Now Craig is Grant’s dad!

How Craig’s clever grasp of the commercial side of media and motorsport helped early in Grant’s racing journey.

The advent of Ute Racing and why it took off.

His gravitation towards Category Management, which would see him excel in this space for decades.

More recently, it’s been the growth and expansion of the TA2 class, which is in great shape.

The funny nickname his grandkids have given him and why it stuck, plus the project he’s working on now that could break a record!

Grant, Craig and Rusty all worked together for years at Ten Motorsport. It’s no wonder this enjoyable, rapport-filled chat flies by.
