    Episode 42 - Tim Schenken
    Dec 24 2025
    In the final episode of season two of the Motor Dream Podcast, we sit down with a true titan of Australian motorsport: Tim Schenken. From his early days winning the 1964 Australian Hillclimb Championship to his rise through the European ranks, Tim’s journey is the stuff of legend. As one of only six Australians to stand on a Formula 1 podium, a feat achieved at the 1971 Austrian Grand Prix with Brabham, he solidified his place in racing history. We dive into his incredible success as a factory driver for Ferrari, where he claimed victory at the Nürburgring and Buenos Aires 1000km races alongside the legendary Ronnie Peterson, and explore his transition from the cockpit to car construction as the co-founder of Tiga Race Cars.

    The conversation also highlights Tim’s profound impact on the structure of modern racing. After returning to Australia in 1985, he became the backbone of Motorsport Australia, serving as the long-time Clerk of Course for the Australian Grand Prix and Race Director for the Supercars Championship. Even today, Tim remains a global authority as an FIA Platinum track inspector, fresh off his most recent assignment at the Macau Grand Prix. We wrap up the episode by discussing his enduring passion for the road, where Tim reveals the surprising vehicles that make up his ultimate "Dream Garage."

    Episode 41 - Mat Coch
    Dec 14 2025
    Formula 1's media presence is now a global powerhouse, but it remains a sport largely reported on by Europeans. Meet Mat Coch, one of just two Australians following the F1 circus full-time—and Australia's only fully accredited F1 journalist.

    Traveling from his base on the NSW Central Coast to every Grand Prix for over a decade, Mat has been a respected voice, serving as Speedcafe’s resident F1 analyst and recently stepping into the influential role of Editor-in-Chief for the longstanding news website, Planet F1. Discover how a boy from the suburbs of Adelaide, with virtually no interest in cars, had his world completely transformed by the arrival of the Australian Grand Prix, setting him on a passionate career path that now places him at the heart of F1’s global media.

    Despite his deep, consuming passion for Formula 1, he surprisingly admits he doesn't have a broad interest in cars as a whole. For him, his fascination is less about the machines and more about the competitive theatre of F1. Plus, we delve into his "Dream Garage" to find out which iconic cars have earned his genuine appreciation after witnessing them up close over the years.

    The 2024 Bathurst 6 Hour was a record-setter, featuring the highest-ever outright finish by an all-female team in Bathurst history. But there was another history-making moment courtesy of young rotary specialist, Maisie Place. This episode tells the extraordinary story of the Moruya-based builder and racer who, at just 14, bought her first race car and began building Wankel engines.

    Maisie achieved a historic feat at Bathurst by solely building and preparing all three Mazda RX8s that started and finished Bathurst's Easter Enduro, highlighting the incredible talent that has propelled her to the top of the motorsport world. From her apprenticeship with a Mazda rotary specialist and mentorship from the legendary Allan Horsley, Maisie's dedication saw her racing in the RX8 Cup and taking her mechanical skills to global stages, including the Nürburgring and Watkins Glen.

    Now an ambassador for the RX8 Cup and running her own successful workshop, Maisie shares her passion for racing, her busy life juggling multiple categories, and her thoughts on the dramatic 2025 Bathurst 6 Hour. Get ready for an inspiring chat with one of the brightest talents in Australian motorsport, and find out what rotary icons make her ultimate dream garage.
