    Mar 30 2026

    Check out Tweak: https://www.tweakuk.com/He has one quote on his Instagram. "We do a bit of welding."But without that bit of welding, the entire automotive YouTube scene would grind to a halt.Bob from the Machine Shop is the man behind the fixes you never see coming. The Irishman who sold everything he owned, rode to England in the snow with £70 in his pocket, knocked on Mat Armstrong's door without knowing who he was, and ended up in Miami rebuilding a multi-million pound Bugatti Chiron — a car he openly admits he has no interest in.In this episode Bob sits down for the most in depth conversation he's ever had on camera. We get into how he really met Mat Armstrong, what it was actually like to work on the Bugatti with Matteo Rimac saying it couldn't be done in a workshop, the £38,000 tax debt he went public about, why he hates working on cars despite being the man every automotive YouTuber calls when things go wrong, and the thing he deals with every single morning that nobody talks about.This one is different.

    Billy Monger’s story is one of the most powerful comebacks in sport.At just 17 years old, Billy was a rising racing driver competing in British Formula 4 when a high-speed crash at 120mph changed his life forever. The accident led to the amputation of both of his legs — but what followed was something few people thought possible.

    In this episode of Ride to Success, Billy shares the raw reality behind the headlines. From waking up in hospital and rebuilding his life, to returning to racing, setting world-class endurance challenges, and becoming a Formula 1 presenter.

    This conversation goes far beyond the crash. We explore the mindset that allowed Billy to rebuild his career, the pressure of motorsport funding, how he returned to the track just 11 months after losing his legs, and why he refuses to live with “what ifs”.

    Billy also reveals the moment he first believed racing was still possible, the incredible support he received from the motorsport world, and how a live speech at BBC Sports Personality of the Year unexpectedly opened the door to a career in Formula 1 broadcasting.
