Grassroots to Goodwood - Motorsport, resilience, and chasing the impossible dream.

Grassroots to Goodwood - MINI Rally Challenge

In this very first episode of Grassroots to Goodwood, I sit down with Adam Fern — one of the driving forces behind the MINI Rally Challenge, and a familiar face from my own journey to Goodwood victory. Adam and I first crossed paths during my build-up to the Festival of Speed, where he joined me as co-driver at the event over the years. Fast forward, and we’re now competing side by side in the MINI Rally Challenge — making this conversation the perfect way to kick off the series. Recorded live in front of an audience, we talk about: * The road to Goodwood and how our paths first crossed * Adam’s role in creating and growing the MINI Rally Challenge * What it’s like to co-drive and compete at such a high level * How anyone with a passion can get started in rallying If you’ve ever dreamed of stepping into motorsport, or just love hearing the behind-the-scenes stories of chasing impossible goals, this episode is for you.
