About this listen

 Welcome to the White Knuckle Racing Club Podcast

And you guessed it. This is all about the world of motorsport and not just cars, but mostly motorsport and anything I want. We might throw in some cooking channel advice at some point and possibly a tutorial on how to perform a frontal Lobotomy. These are the stories of the team principals…engineers…drivers…cooks and cleaners and everyone that's involved in the kindred traveller circus in the world of motorsport.
Sit back and enjoy...or stand.

    Earlier on in the year, I got a chance to sit down with both Porsche Formula E drivers in an exclusive one-on-one setting at the Puma store in Long Store ahead of their inaugural running of Cape Town’s Formula E race weekend. Part two sees us sitting down with German Driver, Pascal Wehrlein who was leading the championship at this time. We chat through the hectic schedule linked to Formula E, what cart he’s going to be buying for his new born daughter, his challenging time in F1 and life in Formula E.

    Earlier on in the year, I got a chance to sit down with both Porsche Formula E drivers in an exclusive one-on-one setting at the Puma store in Long Store ahead of their inaugural running of Cape Town’s Formula E race weekend. This is part one sitting down with António Félix Da Costa.

    For the first part I talk with Antonion Felix Da Costa around his long career from Redbull to A1 GP to if he had the chance to go back in time and race any car against any driver on any track, who would it be?

    It was short but sweet. Enjoy the chat and background sounds of Long street in the CBD.

    In this episode, we talk to Gerhard Vosloo about his fascinating journey through academia and how it set up the opportunity to work for one of the most exciting manufacturers out there, who has weathered the motor industry storm, Rimac or as it's now known as a Bugatti-Rimac.

    We tackle some of the challenges for someone wanting to start a life abroad, taking a risk and watching it pay off. We then go through his role at Rimac and the jobs he was responsible for, working with Mate Rimac, the corporate culture and the exciting prospects for this Pretoria export.

    In part two of the chat, we dive into his time at Manthey Racing, the importance of driver/engineer communication and just how special the Nürbürgring is before closing off with his time judging at Formula Student, the ultimate gateway into F1.

    Gerhard is one of those silent heroes who is applying his trade in the highly competitive space of top tier motoring and motorsport in Europe. He's proven that with a bit of grit and determination that you can work in the best spaces possible with the brightest minds in industry. It's been great to share his story...so far.
