In this special throwback episode, we revisit my 2024 conversation with Canadian standout Raphaël Lessard — and the timing couldn’t be better.

Just a couple of weeks ago, Lessard returned to victory lane at New Smyrna Speedway, capturing a win at a track where he hadn’t triumphed since 2016. The hunger, experience, and perspective he talks about in this interview hit even harder now in light of that recent breakthrough.

Originally recorded in 2024, this conversation dives into Raphael’s racing journey, his growth through the ranks, and the mindset required to compete at the highest levels of stock car racing in North America, all the way to the NASCAR Truck Series with Kyle Busch Motorsports. It also touches on a connection that Maritime fans will appreciate — his time racing at Speedway 660 back in 2015.

Whether you’re hearing it for the first time or revisiting it with fresh context, this episode offers insight into one of Canada’s top racing talents — and a reminder that in racing, sometimes the best wins are the ones that take years in the making.
