A new champion in New South Wales, and teams testing hard for this month's Rally of Tasmania – just two of the topics on this week's Special Stage Rally Podcast.

The rally season is moving towards its finale but there's still plenty going on.

Josh Redhead took the NSW title on Saturday, despite Riley Walters winning the Bathurst Rally, while the Toyota team were hard at it on Tuesday testing their Rally2 cars.

Australia's JWRC star, Taylor Gill, also got his first taste of an AP4 car, while we look ahead to the final round of the WRC, and what the likely axing of the Hybrid units for 2025 means.

Then, we chat one-on-one with New Zealand's youngest rally star, Zeal Jones, who heads to Finland next month as part of Toyota’s WRC young driver search.
