We talk to Aston Martin’s President for the Americas Laura Schwab.

Laura has also worked for Jaguar Land Rover so tells us about why she loves working for British car companies, how Covid will impact driving and the power of their brand not just for owners but for everyone.
She tells us about the new Aston Martin SUV - complete with optional dog washer - and how to fit a car seat into a DB11.
We talk about life in Bourbon country, how to make a Presbyterian, the clever marketing of Maker’s Mark whisky and her bourbon bar.
After an introduction, Robert asks Paul (who joins the show from Newport Pagnell in England) to explain Aston Martin Works and what it means for car lovers (1:22) and the detailed archives that help in restoring old cars and preserving history (4:16) before moving onto the options in restoring your car (6:52). Then they move into Aston Martin's 'Continuation Cars' (11:47), review what makes the GT different than the standard DB4 (13:03), and consider what the production cycle is for these unique cars (15:04).

An insight into the world of F1 through the eyes of one of the top brains of the operation. Paul, who is extremely down to earth, shares his amazing experiences - from the day he walked into McLaren F1 to winning championships and learning to speak the drivers "language". In the past, he's had chairs thrown at him (by a certain Spaniard) but with his calm and methodical approach, you can easily see how teams he has been a key part of have won not only races but world championships.
Enjoy!

Mike & Heath
Stephen Serio is the President of Aston Martin of New England, Lotus Motorsports, and The Bond Group. He started his business in 1987 specializing in exporting right-hand drive 1960s Aston Martins back to the UK. Today, selling new Aston Martins and Lotus cars is about 10% of what he really does, which is sourcing, buying, and selling rare European classic cars. He has helped build some large and important Porsche, Ferrari, and Aston Martin collections over his many years in the business. Stephen’s goal is to keep his collection to about 12 cars, a goal he’s never been successful at. He is an avid 1000-mile rally driver, plays golf, does some shooting and spends time with his family. His first career was in advertising, television, and photography and he grew up outside of Boston.
Aston Martin has launched its special edition series celebrating British aviation entitled the Wings Series. It includes special edition models worked on by Q by Aston Martin.
The brains behind the idea are chief creative officer Marek Reichman and director of special projects, Q and sales.
They both joined Motor Sport at the Royal Automobile Club to discuss the initiative as well as other Aston Martin activities.
Listen to insight into that plus the Aston Martin Valkyrie, the development of the Rapide E and the partnership with Red Bull Racing in Formula 1
