Cameron 'Cam' McConville (born 22 January 1974 in Melbourne
, Victoria, Australia
) is an Australia
n racing driver and motorsport media personality. While retired from full-time competition McConville still races occasionally and is an indemand endurance event co-driver. McConville spent 14 years as a professional driver, ten of those in the largest Australian domestic category, V8 Supercar
. McConville has also written for several magazines and presented several television programs and up until the end of the 2009 season was the colour commentator for Network Ten
's Australian coverage of Formula One. McConville announced his retirement from full-time racing for the end of the 2009 season.
s in first local then national championships, culminating in several Victoria
n titles. At the age of fifteen, he became the youngest ever holder of a CAMS racing licence with a brief foray into Formula Vee
racing before moving onto the highly competitive Formula Ford
racing category in 1991. In 1992 he was chosen to be the 'works' Van Diemen
driver and he won the prestigious 'Driver to Europe' national Formula Ford
title beating future champions such as Craig Lowndes
and Steven Richards
. This victory (he was the youngest ever winner of the series) drew national attention and a testing role at Dick Johnson Racing
as well as some practice laps at the Bathurst 1000
in a Ford Sierra
that year. A solid performance meant he was invited back to the Dick Johnson Racing team for 1993 where he paired with Paul Radisich
in the second team car. Unfortunately, whilst in third position, and gaining on the leaders, he crashed heavily at the 'Esses' just below Brock's Skyline. This proved to be costly to his stellar rise.
After several years of driving for lesser teams, his persistence finally paid off when he teamed up with prominent Melbourne
businessman Tom Warwick to drive a Porsche
993 RSCS
in the Australian GTP championship during the 1996 season. He won the series in the last race of the year beating championship favourite Jim Richards
. In 1997 he was chosen to replace Greg Murphy
as the Audi
Australia
'works' driver (largely due to his success the previous year) where he finished third in the Australian Super Touring Championship
. In 1998 he was narrowly beaten to the championship by team owner Brad Jones in somewhat controversial circumstances.
championship saw the Holden Racing Team
offer McConville an endurance co-drive, pairing up with the then championship leader Craig Lowndes
. Together they finished in second place at the Bathurst 1000
race. This performance earned him a full time contract with the newly-founded Rod Nash racing for 2000. In 2001 he moved to the Sydney
-based Lansvale racing team where he continued to impress in under-funded, less-developed machinery. He remained with the team until he was offered a contract with the Garry Rogers Motorsport
outfit in 2004 after he was the outright winner of the Bathurst 24 hour race in 2002 in a Holden Monaro
driving for the same team. The move to the Garry Rogers team proved fruitful for McConville when he took his first championship race win at Winton Raceway
in 2004. In 2005 he took on team leader status at GRM with the departure of Garth Tander
to the HSV dealer team. The following year, McConville was lured to Kees and Paul Weel
's Supercheap Auto Racing outfit to pair with Greg Murphy
after the retirement of Paul Weel
in 2005.
In 2007, Cameron began a new motorsport reporting role with Channel Ten
, including co-hosting the Formula One
coverage.
In 2008, he joined up with his former boss Brad Jones to drive the number 14 Commodore after the team made the switch from Ford
to Holden
with the support of Walkinshaw Performance in the pursuit of better results. WOW Sight and Sound soon signed on as McConville's major sponsor for the 2008 championship. McConville immediately highlighted the new relationship with an excellent third at the Adelaide 500
. After two mixed seasons McConville announced his decision to step down from full-time racing at the end of the season, the announcement came soon after a nasty crash at the Phillip Island 500K
. During the off-season it was also announced that McConville would not be returning to his on-screen role with Channel 10 and McConville set up a business franchise in tyre retailing. A change in V8 Supercar endurnace race regulations made McConville hot property as a co-driver in 2010 and he was quickly announced as a co-driver for the Holden Racing Team
.
McConville stepped back into a race car at the 2010 Bathurst 12 Hour
and co-drove a HSV R8 Tourer
to fourth place. Subsequently McConville picked up a drive in the 2010 Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series
driving the Eggleston Motorsport Commodore which also enjoyed support from Holden Racing Team's parent organisation Walkinshaw Performance
eager to get McConville additional racing prior to the 2010 endurance races. In the lead up to the 2010 Sucrogen Townsville 400
, Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport
announced that McConville would be replacing Daniel Gaunt
in the team in the short term.
McConville was a last minute entrant for Team BOC at the Falken Tasmania Challenge
of the 2011 V8 Supercars Championship. He replaced Jason Bright
in Race 24, who withdrew after qualifying due to a rib injury. McConville started at the rear of the field and finished 19th.
