Happy New Year! Welcome to the 1st episode of season 3 of the Lovecars On The Grid Podcast!  

Our presenters are back with another roundup of motorsport events, as we discuss Dakar, women in motorsports and Tiff's racing history!  

Paul is off to the Dakar rally at the end of January and we're looking forward to the endurance race, with trucks, cars, bikes and quad bikes that crosses 18,000km in 15 days!  

We've had nightmares over Christmas, as with temperatures dropping and with EVs doing more miles over the festive period, we've seen queues of up to 4 hours at charging stations across the UK!  

Are women hard done by in motorsport? Do women in motorsport get the same opportunities as men? Jamie Chadwick has been our shining star for females in motorsport, who has now moved away from W Series to Indy Lights.  

Tiff and Paul then talk about Tiff Needell's racing history, and the weird and wonderful places that Tiff has raced at! Including Le Mans 24 Hours, his best wins, and worst races!

Next week, we should have new Formula 1 gossip. Plus Formula E is back on 15th January, then we have the Monaco rally on 22nd January!
