Jono Lester, Plant-Powered Motorsport Athlete

GT Racing star Jono Lester joins us on the podcast today telling us all about his childhood in the motorsport world, how he wasn't so interested in racing at the beginning and what got him started. He is actually the third generation in motorsports in his family and you might now be so surprised with who is his favorite driver in F1 but you might get a bit surprised about who he is following this season, as well as which Mexican star he would like to see. He shares with us his deep insight about life beyond cars and glamour. This is an interview you do not want to miss.  - Manena (A Girl Talks F1)
