Who is Grace McClure?

According to this RPM will now be co-hosted by Grace McClure, a former sheep musterer.

Does anyone know anything about her?

TSR has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Anybody has to be better hosting RPM than BILL WOODS, at least Grace is a lot more impressive on the eye than BW.

I remember Grace Mclure in the celebrity race at Albert Park the year N10 got the coverage. She crashed into a wall, and cracked something (possibly in her spine, can't remember)

How is giving some bikini model with a nice rack a co-hosting position going to attract female viewers ? Don't get me wrong she'll be very pleasant to look at but this excuse just doesn't hold water - I just hope she can string a sentence together.

Then again I shouldn't complain, I guess we're lucky they didn't exume Ally Drower again.

Well atleast Drower had some sort of knowledge and interest in motorsport as oppossed to someone who is just going to read the auto cue and giggle a bit, not that I'm complaining though.

Collar bone from memory.

She oversteered (cant remember if it was self inflicted or assisted) coming out of Turn 11 and nailed the wall between 11 & 12 stopping right beside the T12L flag point, where I was working, and didn't look very comfortable and in pain for some strange reason As a result the race was Safety Car'd and I think finished under caution or Red Flagged.

She was the "Face" of the F1GP that year and I think was the then "Face" of Myer or something similar.

I've always wondered about the wisdom of having high paid celeb's in race cars and what would happen if it all went wrong.

Some examples would be Ice Skater Christopher Dean (Torvill &....) at the Thunderdome and Mark Knofler at Adelaide in the 80's.

I seem to remember seeing celeb postie or moped races at the PI Bike GP years ago which didn't last long for some strange reason.

I have a close relation who knows her and says she is nice, not like a lot of others in the industry.

Tammy Macintosh fell off one didnt she, and broke a few bones that put her out of the series she was filming for some time

And Grace McClure is stunning... I hope she presents well though

So... one episode down...

.. while Ms McClure seems a giggling gert.. who hadnt ever seen an autocue before.. wooden performance.. although Rusty seemed to like her

May improve with experience, but lets see

I wonder why they dont get the reigning V8SuperGirl to do that gig each year as part of their prize?

not totally impressed either, but maybe she will get better.
Has she done any tv work before?
If she hasn't it wasn't too bad I guess..

Wouldn't be a bad incentive at all to have a big break in the television industry.

It wouldn't even have to be presenting as such, just some lifestyle clips like Bronte Tagliani did for the CCWS a couple of years back or more general pit reporting.
