Original presenters for the show, which first aired on SBS in 2008, were Warren Brown, MotoGP commentator Charlie Cox, and race driver Steve Pizzati. James Morrison then replaced Cox in season 2. 

When the show moved to Channel 9 for season 3, only Pizzati remained with new hosts Shane Jacobson, Ewen Page, and the late Australian cricketer Shane Warne appearing as a guest reviewer.
