  • Episode 31 - Kym Illman
    Jun 2 2025
    pisode 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.

  • Episode 30 - Aiva Anagnostiadis
    May 16 2025
    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.

  • Episode 29 - Josh Buchan
    May 5 2025
    In episode 29 of The Motor Dream Podcast, we dive into the thrilling world of TCR Australia, a touring car category that has provided a fresh dose of multi-manufacturer competition, reminiscent of the beloved Super Touring era of the 90s and offering a different flavour of high-octane motorsport to Aussie fans. Despite facing challenges with grid numbers at times, TCR Australia has consistently delivered exceptional racing. And for the past two seasons, one name has stood out above the rest: Hyundai's own Josh Buchan.

    We trace Buchan's impressive journey from open-wheel success, including a NSW Formula Ford Championship win and a runner-up finish in Australian Formula 3, to his dominant reign in TCR. From his debut wins at Sydney Motorsport Park to his consecutive championship victories in 2023 and 2024, we explore the stats behind his remarkable consistency and podium presence. Beyond TCR, we also look at Buchan's burgeoning career as a sought-after driver in categories like GT4 Australia and his recent outings with the potent Rodin Sintura. We'll delve into his petrolhead upbringing and his enduring love for early 90s Holden Commodores, showcasing the passion that fuels his successful career as a professional driver.
