James Courtney | Part 2 - Schumacher the first on scene & selling Cocho’s place

The vivid memories of driving the V10 Jaguar Formula One car at Monza and a frightening crash at Ascari that wasn’t his fault.How Michael Schumacher stopped to help, off the charts crash data and the injuries James suffered that would keep him out of the car for months.Taking a career detour and conquering Japan plus the little known Indycar option and a potential second chance at F1.Moving into Supercars and a moment at Darwin in 2005 that necessitated a switch to SBR when HRT had been the first option.Winning the title for DJR against a backdrop of financial hardship for the team at the time and how proud he is of the way his crew rallied to get it over the line.How a move into broadcasting almost happened before his recent stint at the Blanchard Racing team.Overcoming fears that date back to school to get his Real Estate Licence and selling one of the best homes on the Gold Coast that belonged to Tony Cochrane.Plus the potential driving career bookend with his good mate Charlie Schwerkolt.A big thanks to Martin Collins and the Taupo International Motorsport Park team for letting us record there and Supercars TV for giving us nearly two hours of JC’s time ahead of the first leg of the Kiwi double header.Head to Rusty's Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and give us your feedback and let us know who you want to hear from on Rusty's GarageSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
