Taylor Gill has become just the third Australian driver to finish on the podium in a Junior World Rally Championship event, while Dan Brkic becomes the second such Aussie co-driver to do so courtesy of their fine result at the Croatia Rally.
Gill joins the podcast as guest to talk about his efforts on tarmac where he clinched second on only his third ever tarmac rally. He talks to Luke Whitten about managing brakes and tyres and the notoriously difficult ‘cuts’ which bring mud all over the once smooth and grippy surface.
At the top of the show, the regular RallySport Magazine team analyse Gill’s efforts and talk about the happenings in Croatia and discuss whether the WRC Promoter is doing the right thing in partially funding Latvian Martins Sesks’ Rally1 drive.

The second-generation racer made a strong start to his rookie season with Tickford Autosport in the Dunlop Super2 Series in February and last weekend joined George Miedecke in giving the Ford Mustang GT4 a winning debut on Australian soil - as well as the car’s first pole position anywhere in the world.
We chat about how he got into the sport, an incredible trip to race in Germany courtesy of Toyota, as well as insight into how Tickford Racing is helping usher its trio of young pilots through Super2.
