Well, this is it. The 500th Episode of Motorsport101. And in an idea that came together by the wonderful RJ O’Connell, we decided to recount and retell the 50 most important moments in the nine-and-a-half-year history of the show.
Back in October 2014, Dre Harrison and Ryan King decided to start a podcast for Dre’s final-year University project. We never thought a decade on, we’d still be doing this. From the 2014 Russian GP, to Cam and RJ’s debuts, to Kurt Busch’s ex-girlfriend being a trained assassin, all the way to Abu Dhabi 2021, Marc Marquez leaving Honda and so many of us finding a better place for ourselves in and outside of Motorsport. This is an archive of the moments that made us and made Motorsport what it’s become in the last decade.
And make no mistake, we couldn’t have done it without you, the audience. This place has grown so much in the last decade and we know there are 100-plus places you can get your Motorsport news and opinion fix… you chose us. That means the world.
From the bottom of our hearts, from everyone at M101, thank you for inviting us into your homes, whether it be just once, or 500 times. You’re the best audience in the world, and we love you.
Here’s to the next 500,
Dre x
