Tales from the Co-Driver: Ian Grindrod's Rallying Adventures

In this episode of the Backseat Driver Podcast, I sit down with a rallying legend, Ian Grindrod.

Famous for his professional rally co-driving career, Ian shares a fantastic trip down memory lane with me, recalling encounters with some of the most iconic figures in the sport. From Trevor Roberts to Henri Toivonen, the list of people he has worked with is impressive. His insights into the sprawling history and his personal experiences within the sport painted an engaging picture of what it's like inside the co-driver's seat.
