Supercars and LiSTNR launch new Drivers Only podcast

Supercars is thrilled to announce the launch of a brand-new podcast series, Drivers Only, produced in collaboration with LiSTNR, Australia's largest podcast sales representatives network.

The podcast offers fans unfiltered and raw insights directly from the drivers themselves.

Drivers Only takes fans behind the scenes with the sport’s biggest names and will feature candid conversations about all things Supercars and beyond, allowing fans to hear directly from their favourite drivers regularly between each round of the 2024 Repco Supercars Championship.

The first season of Drivers Only will consist of eight episodes, each released after the remaining rounds of the 2024 championship.

These episodes will be housed alongside some of Australia’s award-winning podcasts such as the established and highly successful Rusty’s Garage, hosted by the respected presenter, journalist, and commentator Greg Rust, who shares a passion for all things fast.

Nathan Prendergast, Supercars Head of Broadcast said: "This podcast gives Supercars drivers their own platform to talk about whatever they want in their own words and show off a lighter side not often seen at the racetrack. It's a fantastic opportunity for fans to connect with the drivers on a more personal level."

"Drivers Only not only boosts our digital offerings but also enriches the fan experience. It's about giving fans unparalleled access to the personalities behind the helmets."

Greg Rust, Broadcaster and Host of Rusty’s Garage, said: “It’s a bit like handing the kids the keys to your favourite car! Supercars represented over 15 years of my TV life and I still love it immensely with several drivers, legends and team personnel featuring on my podcast.

"But what’s missing from that offering is a conversation, not steered by journos or a broadcaster like me, one that lets the fans eavesdrop on the drivers and the kind of stuff they talk about in the paddock. I’m really proud they’ve decided to add it to our Garage line-up.”

The first episode of Drivers Only has been recorded at the LiSTNR studios in Melbourne, featuring drivers David Reynolds, Ryan Wood, and Thomas Randle.

This episode is now available across the LiSTNR podcast network and Supercars digital platforms. Additionally, a live video recording of the episode is available to watch on the Supercars YouTube channel.

The inaugural episode has been launched just days out from the NTI Townsville 500, which runs July 5-7.

General Admission, Grandstand, and Corporate Hospitality tickets for the NTI Townsville 500 are available now at Supercars.com.
