    Episode 37 - Harri Jones
    2025/10/10
    This Sunday, the Repco Bathurst 1000 hits the track for its 68th running, and among the 54 starters are six eager rookies—the oldest of whom is this episode's guest, the two times and defending Porsche Carrera Cup Australia champion, Harri Jones.

    At just 26, Jones is making his long awaited debut at The Great Race for Team 18, co-driving with Anton DePasquale. Harri's journey has been one of consistent success, graduating from open-wheelers to dominating the Porsche pyramid, winning the 2019 Porsche Michelin Sprint Challenge and claiming his first Carrera Cup title in 2022. His stellar form even earned him a stint overseas, finishing as rookie vice-champion in the ultra-competitive Porsche Supercup in 2023 supporting the Formula 1 calendar, before returning to Australia to immediately win his second Carrera Cup title.

    Harri joins us to discuss his European journey and his immediate, title-winning return to Australia, where he now races as an owner-driver. We also dive into his hands-on role in his family’s extensive motorsport business, which runs multiple cars in the Porsche Sprint Challenge and boasts a stunning collection of historic race cars. Harri also opens up about his family's deep roots in racing—including his dad's role in a legendary '90s Sports Sedan championship win—and reveals the fascinating details of his very German dream garage.

    2025/09/20
    For any driver, winning a prestigious event like the 24 Hours of Le Mans or the Indianapolis 500 represents the pinnacle of their sport. In the world of off-road racing, the ultimate challenge is the legendary Dakar Rally. In this episode of The Motor Dream Podcast, we speak with two American off-road heroes who have conquered the Dakar’s daunting dunes - two-time Dakar Rally winner Ricky Brabec and Dakar stage winner Sara Price.

    Brabec made history as the first and only American to win the motorcycle category of the iconic race in 2020 and 2024. His partner, Sara Price, is also a history-maker, becoming just the third woman ever to win a stage in the Dakar Rally, which she accomplished in 2024. Both originally from California and now based in Arizona, they've dedicated their lives to off-road racing. They share stories from their careers, including Brabec's Dakar achievements and Price's groundbreaking success as a female motocross and supercross rider.

    Episode 35 - Luke Rocca
    2025/08/01
    Amongst a plethora of podcasts dedicated to the world of Formula 1, there's one that stands out like a really sore thumb. A podcast whose hosts will do anything to avoid being relegated to their junior podcast, Visa Cash App Talking BS.It's the Reserve Drivers Podcast and on episode 35 of the Motor Dream Podcast, we get to chat one of the brainchilds behind this series - Melbourne based comedian and F1 tragic, Luke Rocca.

    Since their 2019 debut as a YouTube channel, Rocca and Tim McDonald have hilariously "terrorised" teams, drivers, and even the Sky Sports F1 team with their unique, irreverent Grand Prix recaps – even drawing "consternation" for a live on-air gaffe. Their no-holds-barred approach to "taking the piss" out of F1 has garnered a massive following.

    Away from Formula 1, Rocca also writes and researches for Network Ten's The Cheap Seats and recently hosted his stand-up show, "Doormat" at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. While not always a motoring enthusiast, Rocca's work on The Reserve Drivers has him quickly embracing a love for cars and presented a dream garage that will surprise a lot of people.

    2025/07/19
    Following our last episode with the inspiring Totani siblings, we continue to explore the "family sport" of motor racing with our guest for episode 34, Karlie Buccini. Inspired by her father, who shares the same passion for motorsport, Karlie began her own journey 15 years ago in Queensland. What started as a grassroots passion in supersprints and hillclimbs propelled her to an incredible achievement in 2024: a class victory at the Bathurst 6 Hour.

    Karlie, alongside previous podcast guest Courtney Prince and Suzanne Palermo, made history as the first all-female team to win their class in any Bathurst enduro. They also shattered a 26-year-old record, becoming the highest-placed all-female team with a remarkable 10th outright finish at Bathurst. Beyond her Bathurst triumph, Karlie also clinched the Class B1 championship in the Australian Production Car Series with Courtney, and has even raced overseas. Join us as Karlie shares her journey, proving that the road to success doesn't always have to follow the traditional path, and how her family, particularly her dad Paul, remains central to her racing world.

Meanwhile, Lisa recounts her journey from volunteer flag marshal to an integral part of TCR Australia's category management.

    2025/06/17
    The Taylor family name is synonymous with Australian and international rallying, a legacy spanning almost half a century. On Episode 32 of the Motor Dream Podcast, we sit down with Molly Taylor, the latest in this incredible motorsport dynasty.

    With her mother, Coral, holding an unmatched six Australian champion navigator titles, and her father, Mark, an Aussie Car class champion, plus the legendary Norm Fritter as her grandfather, Molly was destined for greatness. She's not just a product of her environment, though; Molly has blazed her own trail, inspiring a new generation of female rally drivers.

    Molly's resume speaks for itself: in 2016, she shattered glass ceilings, becoming the first woman to win an Australian motor racing championship as a driver, claiming the Australian Rally Championship for Subaru. Then, amidst the 2021 pandemic, she conquered the inaugural Extreme E Championship with Rosberg X Racing. Beyond these triumphs, she's tackled the gruelling Dakar Rally twice, launched the highly successful MaD Garage YouTube channel, and even found time for Supercars commentary and competing in the Race of Champions for Australia. Join us as Molly, fresh from building her 700bhp Subaru WRX nicknamed "Fabio", dives into her remarkable career, Dakar adventures, and her exciting preparations for the FIA Extreme H World Cup.

    Episode 31 - Kym Illman
    2025/06/02
    Episode 31 of the Motor Dream Podcast zooms in on the surging popularity of Formula 1 in Australia, through the eyes of Australian photographer and businessman, Kym Illman.

    A renowned nature photographer, Kym stumbled into F1 photography in 2017 after acquiring media accreditation through the FIA as a fluke, and has since become a global sensation, capturing iconic moments and building an immense online following across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, with a combined 1.6 million followers. His business acumen shines through in his thriving online store and his regular appearances as an F1 expert on mainstream media outlets like The Project on Network Ten and Sunrise on Channel Seven.

    Kym's journey into motorsport is far from conventional. Despite not growing up with a passion for cars, his entrepreneurial spirit led him to an audacious ambush marketing stunt at the 1998 Australian Grand Prix, promoting his highly successful "Messages on Hold" business. This early taste of F1 notoriety, combined with his natural business savvy, laid the groundwork for his later success in the sport. Beyond the lens, Kym has even dabbled in motorsport as a driver and team owner, including a fifth-place finish at the 2009 Bathurst 12 Hour and surviving a near-fatal crash at Targa Tasmania.

    Now, he's content capturing the thrilling essence of Formula 1 for his ever-growing online audience, offering a unique behind-the-scenes perspective that has cemented his place as a leading voice in the F1 world.

    Thirty-three years. That's how long it's been since a woman last attempted to qualify for a Formula 1 Grand Prix. But Aiva Anagnostiadis is determined to change the narrative as she takes on her contemporaries in the F1 Academy series. Featuring 18 incredibly talented women ranging between the ages of 16 and 25, the series now includes an Australian presence with the 17-year-old Melbournian, who is proudly representing TAG Heuer as their brand ambassador and team driver.

    Aiva's journey, starting in karting at age six, saw her win the Australian Ladies Trophy in 2021 and represent Australia at the FIA Motorsport Games. Her transition to cars in 2023, a move to Europe, and participation in the Indian F4 Championship led to her being talent-spotted by Alpine and signed to their Rac(H)er Academy in 2024. Now, she stands on the world stage, representing a major lifestyle brand and carrying the hopes of many for a more inclusive future in Formula 1.

    Born and raised into a family that is active and passionate within motorsport, it's great to have Aiva as a guest on episode 30 of The Motor Dream Podcast.
