"Yeah baby!" Do you remember Rob’s classic F1 radio conversations with Felipe Massa?

Well, we’ve tracked him down in the UK for a feature episode, and it's a ripper. From growing up in the north, impressing at University and getting a break in motorsport on the engineering side that would see Smedley spend the better part of his life in the Formula 1 paddock with memorable stints at Ferrari and Williams. 

Rob’s delves deep into his vast time in pitlane, which also included time shaping some legendary cars in the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) at the height of the incredible arms race between the manufacturers in the two litre Super Touring era.

He graciously took a break from his work with the Global Karting League, a groundbreaking initiative he's passionately leading, to join us for this conversation. The project is creating a buzz in the karting world and providing unprecedented opportunities in Motorsport to those who previously may not have had the chance to begin.
