Life with Legends 001: Derek Bell M.B.E.


Listen Later

As soon as I decided to create this series I knew who my first episode should be with; as my father Derek is an absolute legend of a man.

5 times winner of the epic Le Mans 24 Hour race and a Two Time World Sportscar Champion, he is a man that lived through the most dangerous era of motorsports and dominated racing as team mate to some of the others stars of the sport.

Like all my interviews I had no plan for this one, but with a lifetime of amazing memories and stories I knew that this had to be recorded for us all to enjoy. From friendships with Enzo Ferrari to getting me started in the sport, we covered a lot of ground!

Most importantly, I have an extraordinary relationship with Dad and he has been an amazing role model for me, not only as a race car driver but as a man. I am beyond proud of him.

Our great friend Kevin Jeanette at Gunnar Racing let us hangout for a couple of hours and talk, but as I hope you agree, we barely scratched the surface and so if its ok with you, we will have to do a part II at some point!

Enjoy and thank you for sharing your time with us.
