GILL'S SKILLS!

IF YOU’RE A BUDDING RACING DRIVER and are in search of a mentor, allow us to introduce you to Gaurav Gill — few can match this man’s expertise. As India’s top rally driver, very few people can drive a car faster than Gill when there’s any sort of loosey-goosey surface. Or even asphalt for that matter, if you look at his racing championships and utter dominance at tarmac rallies. Gill has many accolades to his name, having won the INRC multiple times and is the first Indian to have won the APRC, going on to take the title a total of three times. He has also participated in the WRC2 and is the first person from Indian motorsport to win the Arjuna Award. To share his knowledge and groom the next generation of rally enthusiasts, Gaurav Gill runs a school for aspiring rally drivers called the Advanced Driving Academy. In these times of social distancing we decided to take the school online with #evoConversations on Instagram with editor Sirish Chandran, and got GG to share his vast repository of knowledge. When Gaurav talks, you listen and take notes. Here are GG's pro tips:
