Brionna Lynch

10/27/20 • 31 min

Infatuated with dirt bike riding as a young child, Bri Lynch found her love for drifting in her teenage years, to then soon follow her father’s footsteps as a stunt driver. Having acted as stunt double in productions such as Black Panther, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and more recently the Batwoman TV series, this performer is passionate about showing black females that you are in no way limited to your race and gender, having never let this deter her from following her path. Also delving into the world of content creation with a successful YouTube channel, Bri combines her love of all things automotive with filmmaking and photography alongside her role in the stunt world.

Ludovic Pezé

On paper, growing up around the streets of one of Formula 1’s most iconic circuits surely seemed like a fast-track ticket to a career in motorsport for this young Monégasque. But, having focused on his studies and a career elsewhere, Ludovic Pezé's life was turned upside down when he fell seriously ill with meningitis, which would see him in a coma with a year of rehabilitation. Thankfully, Ludovic was given a second chance at life, subsequently chasing his one true passion, and setting up Motors Formula Team for which he is now motorsport consultant, driver agent and business manager. His dual nationality background of French and Mauritian sees him a good fit to represent drivers across Africa and Europe, from Formula E to karting, with the hope of supporting talented racers of colour to reach the very top.

His involvement in Formula Student as team leader stands him in good stead for this, along with his dedication to all things two wheels, having previously established a motorcycle riding academy back in Bermuda. We also talk courage, inspiration and solidarity in the quest for diversity in motorsport.
