Show Notes
With a 16 point lead, Kiwi rally driver Hayden Paddon is entering the Estonia leg of the FIA European Rally Championship tied for first.
He took the crown in the Southland rally in the NZ Rally Championship a couple of weeks back, as well as finding the time to sign up as the new TrailLite Ambassador.
He told Mike Hosking that rally is to Estonia as rugby is to New Zealand, and everywhere they’ve been this week everyone knows who they are.
While Paddon has had a bit of a busy month, he’s been doing this for so long that the gap in driving is no issue, telling Hosking that you just trust your instincts.
“Once you get in that zone and get back into your, your happy place so to speak, you just, you know, you do what comes naturally.”
