Anton De Pasquale | Part 1 - Larko’s radar and open wheels OS

Starting karts later than others but catching up real fast! Learning from people like Michael Ritter in Formula Ford and finding his way onto Larko’s (Mark Larkham) radar. Heading to Europe to race Formula Renault in 2014 and scoring 7 wins, plus another 2 in the non-championship Nurburgring races, on the way to the title. Some memories of racing at legendary places including Spa, Assen, Zolder and Zandvoort. Changing tack and coming back to Australia to try his hand at Super 2 and how a key day with Paul Morris at Norwell helped put the wheels in motion. Plus straight talk (delivered right) can still keep the tight, harmonious team working relationships he’s become renowned for. We’re grateful to Dewi Jones at Team 18 for helping to tee up this interview at short notice while Rusty was unexpectedly in Melbourne….as you’ll hear it’s easy chat and we’re so pleased to get Anton on the pod!
