El 2 de mayo de 1976 debutaba en el GP de España, en el Jarama, el único monoplaza de 6 ruedas que ha corrido en la F1. Ya estaba allí. Y lo que pasó a partir de ese momento, te lo han contado muchas veces, pero ¿cuántas te han contado lo que sucedió antes? Es lo que vamos a hacer en este podcast. Como siempre comenzamos poniéndonos en antecedentes. Y para eso nos vamos a las temporadas anteriores, a los años 1974 y 1975. Y analicemos la parrilla, porque eso nos ayudará a entender muchas cosas. Porque en esos años la inmensa mayoría de los equipos utilizaban el motor V8 Ford Cosworth DFV y había una cierta obsesión por Ferrari. Todas las escuderías tenían claro que Ferrari jugaba con ventaja gracias a sus potentes motores de 12 cilindros. Cuando llegaban las rectas largas y sobre todo la recta principal, donde se producen la mayoría de los adelantamientos, nadie podía con los Ferrari y sus 12 cilindros, lo que obsesionaba a todas las escuderías de la F1, entre ellas a Tyrrel, propiedad el británico Ken Tyrrel, que había ganado el Mundial de Constructores en 1971 y los de pilotos en 1971 y 1973 con el ahora Sir Jackie Stewart… Ken veía difícil reverdecer laureles si no hacia algo “diferente”. En lo que sí se parecen mucho los F1 actuales y los de esos años es en su pésimo CX… ¡mucho peor que el de un camión! Y no solo por lo alerones, sino porque al llevar las ruedas descubiertas y al girar a mucha velocidad producen remolinos y turbulencias que suponen un verdadero freno al avance. Ken Tyrrell no dejaba de darle vueltas a cómo mejorar la penetración aerodinámica de sus coches y hablo de ello con Derek Gardner. Derek pensó que un monoplaza con un tren delantero más estrecho y ruedas de menor diámetro serien una solución magnifica para conseguir que el Tyrrel fuese más rápido en rectas… pero lo perdería todo en las curvas. Y el genio de Gardner pensó: ¿Y si pongo en vez de dos ruedas delanteras grandes 4 pequeñas? Gardner con un dibujo casi infantil de un antiguo proyecto pensado para la 500 Millas de Indianápolis consiguió convencer a Ken… increíble. Las 4 ruedas delanteras de 10 pulgadas permitían un morro muy afilado, una mejor penetración en el aire, que Derek Gardner suponía un 20 por ciento más favorable, lo que redundaría en una velocidad punta mayor en recta. Además, en curva la superficie de contacto de las 4 ruedas pequeñas sería más o menos la misma que con los dos grandes y los cuatro pequeños frenos tendrían una superficie de barrido igual e incluso superior. En agua las “primeras” ruedas delanteras quitarían el agua a las “segundas ruedas delanteras” y en caso de pinchazo, no era tan peligroso… Gracias a los esfuerzos del equipo se superaron mucho inconveniente y todo encajaba. ¿O no? El 22 de septiembre de 1975, en el Hotel Heathrow Hilton de Londres, Ken Tyrrel congrega a la prensa especializada y a buena parte del mundillo de la F1 para presentar su “P34” o “Project 34” o “Proyecto 34” como queráis. Al descubrir la lona que tapaba el coche los presentes no daban crédito a lo que veían y fueron muchos los malpensados que dijeron que era una maniobra de marketing para llamar la atención… ya verían que no. Pero el escepticismo era el denominador común… veamos algunas opiniones del momento: Frank Williams, propietario de su propio equipo: “No soy ingeniero, pero soy escéptico. Espero que no funcione, ya que ello nos costaría por lo menos seis meses para ponernos a su mismo nivel”. Gordon Murray, diseñador de Brabham: “Tendrán grandes problemas para hacerlo funcionar como se debe en las curvas, porque esto contrasta con las leyes fundamentales sobre la proyección de suspensiones. En cambio, andará muy bien corriendo sobre la nieve”. Sarcasmo. Harvey Postlethwaite, diseñador de Hesketh: “Se darán cuenta de que será imposible hacer funcionar esta idea. Todas las ventajas que puedan obtener con esta disposición quedarán a un lado ante la imposibilidad de ponerlo a punto. Por otra parte, será prácticamente imposible equilibrar el coche”. Peter Warr, jefe de Lotus: “Como idea para reducir la zona frontal y aumentar la velocidad me parece óptima, desde lo técnico será muy difícil de llevarlo a la práctica y dudo de que tenga éxito”. Teddy Mayer, jefe de McLaren: “Desde el punto de vista técnico será muy difícil de llevarlo a la práctica y dudo de que tenga éxito”. El debut tuvo lugar en el GP de España de F1 disputado en el Jarama, mi circuito, los días 1 y 2 de mayo de 1976. Debuto un solo coche que fue para Depailler, el más “entregado” a la causa de los dos pilotos. Para sorpresa de todos Depailler consiguió el tercer puesto de la parrilla al primer intento, muy por delante de su compañero de equipo. Más tarde problemas de frenos, en la vuelta 26, obligaron al abandono, pero la demostración estaba hecha. Al cuarto intento, en el GP de Suecia, los dos coches de 6 ruedas conseguían un doblete para la historia. Lo que os decía antes de los injusta que es la vida: La marca de ser el único piloto en ganar una prueba de F1 con un coche de 6 ruedas se quedará probablemente para siempre, en manos de Jody Scheckter… cuando la merecía más Depailler… La temporada 77 el coche perdió parte de su espíritu, con las vías ensanchadas, una carrocería más amplia, un chasis más pesado… y una escasa evolución de los neumáticos por parte de Goodyear… A perro enfermo todo son pulgas y la llegada de Ronnie Peterson, un talentoso piloto que sustituyo a Jody, no fue suficiente. El Gran Premio de Japón de 1977 fue su última carrera oficial, porque luego corrió en la F1 clásica. Resulta curioso que el P34 sustituyo al Tyrrel 007, pero al P34 no lo siguió un 009, sino un 008… ¿la propia Tyrrel los “ninguneaba”? No lo sé, pero el 008 diseñado por Maurice Phillippe estaba en las antípodas del P34 porque era un coche que no podía ser más conservador. Solo consiguió dos podios. Conclusión. Me voy a repetir diciendo que echo de menos los años en que el reglamento de la F1 era más permisivo de dio lugar a coches como este… Ahora que un coche te sorprenda… no es un milagro, sencillamente es imposible.

A lo largo de la historia de la F1, han habido grandes personajes. Pero hay quienes detrás de cámaras y lejos de los circuitos, particularmente en las fábricas, cobran una importancia enorme. Los ingenieros que se encargan de diseñar los autos. Hay grandes nombres como Mauro Forghieri, Gordon Murray y Adrian Newey, pero hay uno en particular que hizo posible los 7 campeonatos de Michael Schumacher.

Hay coches que marcan un antes y un después. Más allá de sus prestaciones, su estética o su tecnología… Sobre todo por su concepto. McLaren, la escudería de F1, decidió hacer un coche de calle y para ello conto con un genio: El ingeniero Gordon Murray. Mi querido Ferrari F40 intentaba ser un coche de competición que pudiese circular por carretera… El McLaren llevó ese concepto más lejos de lo que nadie podía imaginar. Bienvenidos a los Podcast de los Lunes de Garaje Hermético.

Mis buenos amigos de Planeta DeAgostini… ¿cómo podían saber que el 330 es mi Ferrari favorito? Estoy enamorado de este coche. Este podcast lo hacemos con la ayuda de Planeta DeAgostini, que nos va a ofrecer a todos los aficionados una maqueta, con la calidad con la que ellos son capaces de hacerlo, del Ferrari 330/4… ¿Qué no conoces este coche? ¡Pero si se le considera el coche de carreras más bello de todos los tiempos! Con un motor central V12 de 4 litros y 450 CV… es-pec-ta-cu-lar. Y esta maqueta cuenta con dos características muy especiales: Primera: Su fidelidad… ¡con licencia oficial Ferrari! O lo que es lo mismo, con los planos de Ferrari… es simplemente perfecta. Solo te digo una cosa: Mira las imágenes del motor. Segunda: Además de perfecta, es… ¡enorme! De escala 1:8 a lo que es lo mismo, ¡medio metro de largo!… ya he preparado en el salón de mi casa un hueco para esta maravilla. Y añadiría una más, porque Planeta DeAgostini sabe hacer estas cosas: No te asustes, si sigues las instrucciones que vienen con las piezas, no es complicado de construir… es más, ¡lo vas a disfrutar! Por ser de seguidor de Garaje hermético tienes ventajas… Aquí tienes todos los datos: https://bit.ly/Ferrari330Garaje usa el código GARAJEHERMETICO y te aplicarán un precio especial. ¡Hoy vamos a olvidarnos de SUV, híbridos, eléctricos, de coches sin personalidad y de temas sesudos! ¡Vamos a divertirnos! Uno de vosotros me propuso un reto: Hacer un listado con los 10 mejores deportivos de la historia… ¡menudo desafío! Pero en GH… ¡nos atrevemos con todo! Hay tantas listas de “Los 10 mejores deportivos de la historia” como aficionados, porque cada uno tiene sus preferencias… os traspaso un reto: ¿Y si hacemos una lista con vuestras preferencias? 1. BMW M3 (1986). El M3 marcó un antes y un después en el mundo de los deportivos y sobre todo en BMW, pues fue el pistoletazo de salida de la división M. 2. Ferrari F40 (1987). Tras el desgraciado fallecimiento del “Commendatore” el 14 de agosto de 1988, lo tuve claro: El F40 era el mejor deportivo del momento, sería uno de los mejores deportivos de la historia y se convertiría en un mito. 3. Honda NSX (1990). Como un Ferrari… pero mejor y utilizable para el día a día. Este coche lo he podido probar muchas veces, usarlo a diario y viajar con él. 4. Jaguar E (1961). Seamos sinceros: La mayor cualidad del Jaguar E es su estética, en especial en su versión descapotable, para mí el “verdadero” Jaguar E. Esa es la virtud que ha prevalecido con el paso del tiempo, en especial desde que Enzo Ferrari dijo aquello de que el Jaguar E era “el coche más hermoso jamás fabricado”. 5. Lamborghini Miura (1966). Yo no soy Enzo Ferrari, pero como sobre gustos no hay nada escrito, me atrevo a contradecirle: Para mí el deportivo más bonito de la historia es el Miura, considerado además como el primer superdeportivo de la historia… y el segundo modelo lanzado por la marca. 6. Lancia Stratos (1973). ¡Otro diseño del Gandini! ¡Qué grande! En Rallyes, su dominio fue aplastante y se fabricaron solo 492 unidades… muchas de ellas acabaron su vida destruida en algún rallye. 7. Lotus Super Seven (1957). El Seven y Super Seven los los Lotus que mejor se adecuan a la filosofía de su creador Colin Chapman cuando decía aquello de “prefiero que me quites un kilo a que me des un caballo”. 8. McLaren F1 (1992). Lo que hace que este coche esté en esta lista es de algún modo lo mismo que al F40: Era un coche de competición que se podía matricular y circular por la calle. Se dice que a Gordon Murray se le ocurrió la idea esperando en un avión y luego pensó… “¿por qué no?”. 9. Mercedes-Benz 300 SL (1954). ¡Solo por las puertas merece estar aquí! Y eso que estas puertas que le dieron el nombre de “Gullwing” o “Alas de gaviota” se hicieron así por pura serendipia… 10. Porsche 911 (1964). No soy especialmente fan del 911 pero… ¡cómo no iba a estar aquí el deportivo por excelencia! Lo tiene todo, una historia bonita, éxito en competición, versiones muy especiales como el primer turbo y, sobre todo, se sigue fabricando en la actualidad, muy evolucionado, pero conservando el rasgo del motor posterior. Conclusión. No están todos los que son, pero son todos los que están. Y hay otra conclusión: Realmente, este podcast necesita una segunda parte… ¿no os parece?

Jason rides in the left seat of a T.50 and declares it the best sounding engine he's ever heard — dethroning the Lexus LFA. With which he and Derek have experience. === Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev === First of all, Jason calculates his cars' brake fluid age and is mostly okay with it, but also slightly horrified at how old the brake fluid is in several of his cars — one of which is 13 years old. Whoops. Secondly, GMA allowed Jason a ride in the leftmost (passenger) seat of Gordon Murray's T.50, with Dario Franchitti in the center seat. There's video — and audio. And it's enough to have moved Jason to dethrone the LFA, which he had just pronounced the best sounding engine of all time. The LFA's V-10 sounds amazing — far better in the car than the Porsche Carrera GT, the other best-sounding V-10 of all time (with honorable mention given to the BMW S85 — and every other V10 short of the Viper's.) The boys also speak about the LFA Revelations Episode — and the history of the Lexus LFA. And of cars that ride poorly, like the LFA does. Like the Mercedes AMG GT. Learn more about your ad choices.

¡Todo el mundo se acuerda de los pilotos de F1! Y pocos, o nadie, de los ingenieros. Pero en Garaje Hermético ¡sí nos acordamos de ellos! Hay dos tipos de ingenieros o de responsables técnicos en la F1: Los que buscan una idea genial que consiga hacer que sus coches sean claramente mejores que el resto o los que buscan la excelencia en la suma de muchos pequeños detalles. ¿Cuáles son mejores? Ya sabéis que, como Alejandro Sanz, tengo “El corazón partío” … Porque me siento piloto, empatizo con ellos y les admiro profundamente… Pero a la vez me siento ingeniero, empatizo con ellos y los admiro profundamente. Por eso me gustan aquellos pilotos que además son ingenieros o aquellos ingenieros que, además son pilotos, como André de Cortanze, más ingeniero que piloto o Jean-Pierre Jabouille y Jürgen Barth, más pilotos que ingenieros… Que se conozca más a los ingenieros que a los pilotos es una injusticia y os lo voy a demostrar. Os voy a hacer dos preguntas. Primera pregunta: Cuando todos nos referimos a las F1 y a otras especialidades, que decimos ¿Qué nos gustan las carreras de coches? ¿O decimos que nos gustan las carreras de pilotos? Segunda pregunta: En las carreras de coches, en la F1, por ejemplo, ¿Qué discrimina más, que es más importante, el coche o el piloto?... Verstappen con un HAAS no hubiese ganado el Mundial. Así que está claro que los ingenieros o los responsables técnicos de los equipos son importantísimos y deberían ser más conocidos y reconocidos por el gran público. Y vamos ya con el listado de 12+1… He elegido de cada uno el coche que considero que es su mejor diseño y están ordenados por orden cronológico del coche elegido. 1. Rudolf Uhlenhaut. Mercedes W196R (1954). Inyección. 2. John Cooper. Cooper T43 (1958). Motor central. 3. Mauro Forghieri. Ferrari 312 (1970). Amor al detalle. 4. Derek Gardner. Tyrrel P34 (1976). 6 mejor que 4. 5. Peter Wright. Lotus 78 (1977). El coche ala. 6. Gordon Murray. Brabham BT46B (1978). Coche “aspiradora”. 7. Patrick Head. Williams FW15C (1993). Suspensión activa. 8. John Barnard. McLaren MP4/1 (1981). El coche de carbono. 9. Steve Nichols. McLaren MP4/4 (1988). “The record car”. 10. Rory Byrne. Ferrari F2004 (2004). El mejor Ferrari. 11. Ross Brawn. Brawn Mercedes BGP001 (2009). Difusores. 12. Aldo Costa. Mercedes F1 W04 Hybrid (2013). Dominador. 12+1. Adrian Newey. Red Bull RB19 (2023). “Recordman”. Ahora en Red Bull, responsable técnico del coche dominador en 2023 y, sobre todo, el ser humano que más mundiales de F1 ha ganado en la historia… nada menos que 23. Es un verdadero recordman. Ha dominado con Williams, ha dominado con McLaren y ahora lo hace con Red Bull… un tío tan interesante… que haremos un video solo de él… Conclusión. Lo sigo revindicando: Los ingenieros merecerían un reconocimiento por parte de los aficionados que no tiene… pero se lo han ganado a pulso. Coche del día. Pues… ¡un Cooper! Pero un Mini Cooper de los fabricados en España desde 1973. No era el Cooper inglés, pero con su motor 1275 cm3 de 68 CV y 640 kg era muy rápido y tanto por dentro como por fuera, precioso.

Gordon Murray designed the McLaren F1 as well as a number of successful Formula 1 cars. Today he is the head of Gordon Murray Automotive which builds supercars of a very special caliber. Light. Focused. Naturally-aspirated. Manual gearbox. Many RPMs. Today we're talking about their most recently debuted model, the T.33 Spyder, a breezy piece of carbon beauty powered by a 615HP V12 that redlines at 10,250RPM. We talk about the design process; what inspired the shape; why the windshield is different from every other supercar; why the car doesn't need side intakes; Gordon's dislike of buttresses; his guilty pleasure car; the type of car he's NEVER owned; and something he collects that you wouldn't expect.

Have you ever wanted to hear from a company that was really crushing it with their company culture? Did you ever want to just listen in on the things that they were doing to improve their company culture? Well now is your chance. We brought James Christensen from Gateway Bank and Tierra Terry with the Better Business Bureau Serving the Pacific Southwest together to hear about the various things they are doing to try and improve their company culture. From putting a gym in the office and providing time for employees to take a break during the work day, to bringing in a specialist to work on a resilience strategy with the company. The list goes on with the variety of things that Gateway Bank and the BBB are implementing. The company culture does not just come from space that is built in the office and programs that are implemented. It comes from the leadership. Culture comes from the leaders that really do allow the staff the opportunity to come talk to them. It comes from the leadership that is open and raw about their own struggles and journeys. It comes from the leadership being willing and open to new ideas and change. If the leadership is not open, authentic, and raw, then the rest of the work that is implemented is pointless. This is a great episode to listen in on if you are looking to hear how leaders open up to their employees to set the tone for the company. Listen in to hear the variety of ways to implement change in the workplace such as; flexible work schedules, maternal support, catered lunches, gym space, life guides, resilience strategy, mental health support, and more. It starts with the leadership and then continues on from there. Take a listen and learn from Gateway Bank. Gateway Bank is the only community bank in Mesa, Arizona. Gateway represents a return to how banking used to be, where the staff knew everyone by name and treated customers like people instead of numbers in a database. They bring this nostalgic approach into modern times and offer the best of both worlds: the fast, personal service of a local bank, plus the diverse products and services of a large bank. While Gateway's branch is located in Mesa, they serve customers across the Valley. With a nationwide network of fee-free ATMs, plus added conveniences like Remote Deposit for businesses, you can experience the Gateway difference no matter where you are. James Christensen is the President of Gateway Bank, the only community bank in Mesa, Arizona. Under his leadership, Gateway has thrived through multiple economic downturns and grown to consistently be one of the strongest performing financial institutions in its peer group. James is also very active in the local community and was named Mesa Citizen of the Year in 2023. He is a fierce advocate for small businesses, marginalized groups, and people in need. From one-on-one meetings to presentations and podcasts like this, James enjoys educating and inspiring diverse audiences to improve their financial health and overall well-being.

It is not something you throw in job descriptions to draw people to applying for jobs within a company.

This is how we operate and treat each other in the family.” As a growing company- Culture Crush Business Podcast is THE culture improvement resource that supports companies and leaders. Our Mission is to improve company cultures so people WANT to go to work. Employees and leaders should like where they work and we think this is possible.

About the Host Kindra Maples is spartan racer, past animal trainer, previous magician's assistant, and has a weakness for Oreo cookie shakes. Her journey working with people actually started working with animals as a teenager (don't worry we won't go that far back for her bio). She worked for over 15 years in the zoo industry working with animals and the public. Her passion of working with animals shifted into working with people in education, operations and leadership roles. From there her passion of leadership and helping people develop has continued to grow. Then came the opportunity for leading the Culture Crush Business Podcast and she jumped on it. Leadership, growth, and strong company cultures are all areas that Kindra is interested in diving into further. Shout Outs We want to thank a few people for their behind the scenes effort in helping this relaunch to come to life.

The Dance Between the Employer and the Employee - That's Culture. “This conversation of culture is brand new. Everytime you turn the corner there is a new thing that has never been tried and never been done before.” So how do leaders and employers take all of these new things and learn to implement them into their workplace- through support. It's a dance and it's not easy. There is a dance that happens between the employer and the employees. The space between that dance is where the culture is. This space between is where the growth of the company can happen. It takes support from outside of the company to grow and improve in this space though. That support could be learning how to focus on your main stakeholders, it could be providing financial education to your employees, or even coaching the leadership team. Having Aaron and Kent on the show was so rewarding to our team and we hope it was to the listeners as well. They are both so knowledgeable and it makes sense why they work in the spaces that they do. They discussed some of these areas where the outside support to the company is what leads to the growth of the culture and the company. Who are your stakeholders and how do you support them? Kent gave us some insight into the work that he does focusing on the stakeholder business model and the work that he does to shift companies from a shareholder focus to a stakeholder focus. What are the needs of the employees and the employers as they keep up that dance and redefine what those relationships look like. Aaron walked us through the responsibilities that working “in” the business is to work “on” the business. There are trends to notice, feedback to gather, and polarities in the company to deal with. In most cases, the best way to get to know what is going on inside of the business, is to ask someone outside of the business. As a leader, having someone else check in with your team is when you are going to end up finding out more. “Who are the stakeholders that are part of your world and can they start putting the blocks together for culture so that as it grows it is there and they don't have to correct it.” This is a beautiful episode to listen to if you are ready to hear from two of the most knowledgeable individuals about growing a conscious business with a strong culture. A few of our quick takeaways: Culture is not a balanced equation. Be intentional from the get go to grow your culture. Define your higher purpose. All coaches are not created equally. Share the story of your company to show transparency. Focus on positive reinforcement with the stakeholders. Some resources that came up in the conversation: In addition to the resources that Aaron and Kent provide, there was a book that was mentioned in the podcast that we wanted to share as well. The book- Bringing out the Best in People: How to Apply the Astonishing Power of Positive Reinforcement by Aubrey Daniels The Beyond Zero film that focused on the culture and sustainability building of the company Interface. ------------------------------------------------------------ Stakeholder Business is a collaboration between three inspired humans who care deeply about ushering in the next paradigm of capitalism where — rather than business benefiting a select few and actively harming others — it benefits all.

This Christmas we have recorded a very special single episode of our acclaimed Last Blast podcast. To deliver this unique episode we needed a guest of international renown, made famous through achievements in both the road and racing car worlds. Who better, then, than Professor Gordon Murray, designer of multiple World Championship-winning Formula 1 cars, creator of the McLaren F1 – the car which expanded the envelope of road car performance more than any other – and whose latest design, the T.50 seems likely to rewrite the rules all over again? In an interview lasting over 90 minutes, Gordon takes us right through his career from his earliest days racing in South Africa, his decision to come penniless to the UK and the accidental interview that kicked off one of the most illustrious careers in race car design. Then he takes us through how the F1 came about, his struggle to reconcile his vision for the SLR with that of Mercedes-Benz and why he packed it all in to go and create his own automotive engineering and design consultancy.

This week Oliver interviews Jonas Nyvang, CEO and founder of Stilride, who are building a very novel electric motorbike out of Sweden. We are always VERY interested in how micromobility will create and enable new production techniques for lightweight electric vehicles, and we think that what Stilride have built might offer something very interesting to the conversation. As Horace has often laid out, the manufacturing technique determines so much about a product, and new vehicle manufacturing techniques like iStream from Gordon Murray or modularised microfactories that Stilride talk about, so goes new types of vehicles that can be created. Specifically they tackle: The background of Stilride and what they are building The significance of alternative vehicle fabrication techniques Why Jonas is working on his own vehicle and what's significant about it The manufacturing technique and what it offers The details about the moped Fundraising to date and what has worked/not worked Find Jonas on LinkedIn and learn more about Stilride right here Catch us on Twitter @MicromobilityCo.

Mike highlights the relatively new McCall Jet Show addition to Pebble Beach and recounts his surprise personal conversation with Gordon Murray. He always tells his favorite memories from past car weeks at Pebble Beach.
This week, special guest James Engelsman of Throttle House joins the show to unpack the many happenings of this year's Monterey Car Week, the center of all things automotive once a year. It's James' first car week experience, one which included multiple manufacture reveals, seas of interesting cars from pre-war to Pagani, and the occasional high five between Christian Von Koenigsegg and Gordon Murray. In a discussion beginning with pre-war cars, Jason, Derek, and James discuss various driving experiences that overpromise and under-deliver (and vice-versa). The centerpiece of frustration revolves mostly around the original Acura NSX, a car Jason says promised looks over actual delivered performance. Jason and James also cover their lightspeed hot lap around Laguna Seca in an 1100 horsepower Lucid Air Sapphire, piloted by none other than Top Gear's original tame racing driver, Ben Collins (aka The Stig). All this and more, brought to you by the Hagerty Podcast Network.

How did Gordon Murray get his tenacious hunger of design and problem solving? How did he come to design the legendary McLaren F1? What does his new car, the T.50, do that other supercars don't? And what are those strange contraptions he built out of a boiler and a food truck? All that and a lot more will be answered in this amazing episode. If there were a hall of fame for cars, Gordon Murray would be near the top, seated at the table of bosses next to people like Colin Chapman, Enzo Ferrari, Bruce McLaren, and Dan Gurney. He was the lead designer and engineer behind the McLaren F1, which came after he had a very successful career as a lead engineer in F1. For some, those credits would be enough to hang their legacy on but as you'll soon hear, Gordon is not like other people. His new venture, GMA (Gordon Murray Automotive), has debuted two cars that lit the supercar world on fire because their intent is not to deliver the quickest, fastest, or most powerful ride on Earth, but the best to drive. Gordon's focus has always been about weight reduction and driver feedback, and as will become clear in this show, his focus is sharper than ever.

When Marc Surer reached Formula 1 in 1979, he was a rising star: the reigning Formula 2 champion from the mountains of Switzerland, surely destined for the summit of F1 success. But two leg-breaking crashes made Marc's climb steeper and harder. He relives those crashes with Tom Clarkson and remembers his remarkable recovery and return to racing. Amazingly, he scored points for Arrows, and almost made the switch to Ferrari after the death of Gilles Villeneuve. Marc also came close to racing for McLaren after a secret meeting with boss Ron Dennis. Later, he survived a fiery rally crash in which his co-driver was killed. Marc shares stories of racing up mountains as a child in a country where motorsport was banned, working with F1 design genius Gordon Murray, driving brutal turbocharged F1 cars armed with more than 1000 horsepower and wrestling Group B rally cars on snow and ice.
