    Jake Hill - The 2024 BTCC Champion (...and his Dad - Simon Hill)

    This week's episode of The Driven Podcast will likely sit in our podcast hall of fame and favourites for quite some time. Jake Hill had British Touring Car fans on the edge of their seats throughout the 2024 season right up to the season's final round at Brands Hatch, where he clinched the championship title for the first time. John Marcar and Miles Lacey sat with Jake at his home in Kent to hear the story of his journey to that iconic championship win, but there was also a crucial 4th voice on the recording. The fourth voice on this week's episode is Simon Hill (Jake's Dad). Simon, a professional racing driver turned commentator, is an integral factor in Jake's motorsport career and success, with some frankly inspired stories and anecdotes from his own career and the early stages of Jake's. Expect amazing stories, hilarious memories, and frankly touching conversations between Jake and Simon - as a result; please be warned that this episode contains strong language and adult humour. _______________________________________________ The Driven Podcast brings you motoring-focused discussions, observations from the automotive world, and interviews in which we explore our guests' careers, exploits, and anything else worth discussing.

    2024 Wrapped, "Old Bad" Emissions and Is jaGuar still a sore subject??

    Simon Saunders - Ariel Motor Company

    In the early 1990s, a car designer and university lecturer, Simon Saunders, purchased an automotive vehicle manufacturer historically famous for making everything from push bikes to motorcars since 1871. The company was Ariel, and following a pause in manufacturing since 1971, under Saunders' new ownership, the brand was to reappear in 1996 along with one of the most revolutionary and celebrated sports cars in recent history, the Ariel Atom. In this week's episode of The Driven Podcast, we travel to the modern-day home of Ariel in Somerset to meet with Simon Saunders and his son Henry Siebert-Saunders to learn about the company - from the reveal of the first new-era car - right up to the modern day. _______________________________________________ The Driven Podcast brings you motoring-focused discussions, observations from the automotive world, and interviews in which we explore our guests' careers, exploits, and anything else worth discussing.
