    This episode of Commentary Corner is a belter…

    We’re joined by rising road racing star Don Gilbert and team owner Gerry Parker, and trust us, this one has EVERYTHING.

    Don’s been through more in a short space of time than most riders see in a full career. Highs, setbacks, hard lessons, big decisions… and now?

    A fresh start.
    New team.
    New machines.
    New mindset.

    And he’s got one goal – chasing championships. National AND international. 🏆🌍

    We dig into:
    🔥 The tough moments that shaped him
    🏍️ The new bikes and what to expect this season
    💼 The vision behind the new team setup
    😂 Plenty of honest stories and big laughs along the way

    It’s raw. It’s real. And it’s proper road racing chat.

    Set your reminder 3pm.
    15th February.

    🔥 NEXT UP ON COMMENTARY CORNER… 🔥

    We’re delighted to announce our next guests on the podcast…
    🏁 Caolán Irwin & Rhys Irwin 🏁

    Two brothers. Two serious talents. One proper racing family.

    Caolán Irwin has made his mark in British Superbike, competing in the highly competitive Supersport class and building a reputation as one of Ireland’s sharpest road racing prospects. Smooth, calculated and seriously quick.

    Rhys Irwin is no stranger to the world stage either, a former British Talent Cup rider and competitor in the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup, racing on Grand Prix weekends and going bar-to-bar with some of the best young riders in the world. He’s since progressed through British championship racing and continues to push forward in the UK scene winning the 2025 British Supersport Championship

    From growing up in a racing household to battling it out on national and international grids, we’ll be chatting about:

    🎙 Life as racing brothers
    🏍 The jump from short circuits to bigger championships
    💥 Highs, lows and the pressure of progression
    🔥 What’s next for the Irwin name

    This is one you won’t want to miss.
