Bruce joined Cosworth in 1987 and was interviewed by the company’s founding fathers, Mike Costin and Keith Duckworth.

This week, on The Driven Podcast, thanks to Chery UK, John Marcar attends a star-studded training day with the players of Soccer Aid 2026, an amazing event that has already raised over £16 million for UNICEF this year so far.

Olly Murs - Singer-Songwriter and television presenter who shot to fame on The X Factor in 2009.

Biffy Clyro’s Simon Neil - The frontman of one of the most loved rock bands of our generation.

Masie Adam - Stand-up comedian, comedy writer and multifaceted television personality who was recently seen on Last One Laughing UK.

Frankie Dettori - Possibly the most famous and celebrated professional jockey ever, known also for his work as a television sports pundit.

Paddy McGuinness - The much-loved TV star known for his work as both a comedy actor, writer and television presenter on shows including BBC Top Gear.

Jack Whitehall - The incredibly talented and undeniably hilarious comedian, actor and television presenter.

Danny Dyer - Film star, actor known and loved for his roles in blockbuster films like The Business and Football Factory, as well as TV soap EastEnders.

Chris O’Dowd - Actor and comedian known for his roles as Roy in the cult TV comedy ‘The IT Crowd’ and films including Bridesmaids, Small Town Big Story and as a voice actor in The Sheep Detectives.

John also speaks to Shane Horgan, the Managing Director of Soccer Aid Productions, about the event, as well as to Jack Constantine and Arun Singh from the Chery UK PR team, the carmaker that hosted us for the podcast and sponsored Soccer Aid 2026.

As is becoming the norm with these episodes, John set himself the quest to find out who at the event had the best first car and to see which celebrities became star-struck by the other famous faces whilst training for the big game.
