Motorsport News Podcast

Show Notes

On this episode of Special Stage, Luke Whitten sits down with Australian co-driver Rhianon Gelsomino, who returns to the podcast after three years to discuss her recent co-driving adventures in the United States.

We look at the current rally landscape in the US, specifically examining the more budget conscious limited 4WD class and what it takes to win there.

As always with Gelsomino, listeners are treated to several valuable co-driving insights.

It is an honest conversation about life in the sport and the unique challenges that come with competing at the top level in a growing rally nation like the United States.
