Peter Brock, known as “The King of the Mountain,” was an iconic figure in the world of Australian motorsports. Born in Richmond, Australia, in 1945, Brock achieved immense success as a race car driver and even made a name for himself as a published author. His journey in life was intertwined with his marriage to Bev McIntosh, which spanned three decades, from 1975 to 2005, until his life met a tragic end in a fatal accident in 2006.

Brock’s remarkable career included an impressive tally of thirty-seven wins, with a substantial fortune flowing in through product endorsements. However, in the aftermath of his passing, a judicial decision dictated that Brock’s estate would be exclusively allocated to his children from his marriage, effectively cutting out his girlfriend at the time of his death from the will.
