Show Notes
New Zealand will have a two-driver team for the first time at motorsport's Race of Champions in Sydney in March.
Rally driver Hayden Paddon's been selected for the event which pits top competitors across Formula One, Indycar, Le Mans, Supercars, Nascar, and rallying against one another in a one-versus-one elimination format in identical vehicles.
Another Kiwi will be announced in due course.
Paddon told Mike Hosking that it’s surreal to be a part of something he always watched as a kid.
He says there will be up to 20 drivers with a lot of top names included, so they’re up against the best of the best.
