  • Rhianon Gelsomino is a professional Rally Co-Driver and has been involved in racing since she was very young. Her focus shifted from driving to rally co driving and she has worked her way up to co-driving full time with Travis Pastrana and currently co-drives for Lia Block. Rhianon has had more than a few close calls during her racing career and two especially life threatening incidents in the co driver's seat. These are her Stories of Survival.

    Rhi is the baddest girl in Rally. So awesome to see her co-drive the next generation of Rally with Lia Block. Since Travis is focused on rallycross this year.

    I remember Rhi telling me this story in person. I winced then, I winced again watching this episode. I'm so glad she made it - She's a joy of a human being and a brilliant co-driver.

    I’ve had the privilege of spending time with Rhi, and I can honestly say that she is a wonderful soul and pure dedication to her craft. Met her dad in Daytona and you can see the same focus in both of their eyes. Can’t wait to see more of Rhi on Channel 199

    Great job. She’s awesome and in my opinion needs to be in the hall of fame.

    Wow. That is an incredible story. I knew Rhianon was a badass, but not to this extent. Truly exceptional and inspiring.
    Makes me want to get back in the car even more now.

    I have been a long time fan of Rally and Subaru’s Launch Control series. I remember when Rhiannon became Travis’s co-driver. She really did make a huge difference on the team and I watched Travis become a better driver.
    Hats of to her. She is an amazing person and top of the class in her trade.

    Such a brave, tough woman!! In 2002 I was in a car accident that left me with spine and spinal cord injuries and it took me YEARS to be comfortable being in a car at highway speeds! This woman went straight back to Rally as soon as she could! That’s a strong woman in my mind!!

    I've had the privilege to volunteer with SMUSA as a #SubaruAmbassador, and of the small hand full of women I admire, Rhi is at the top of the list. I'm so thankful to have gotten to be a part of the sport in a supportive role, even moreso to know someone so important to Rally.

    Awesome storytelling, inspirational story. Altought I knew about it, this was a very in depth into what happened and the overcoming of those potential terrible incidents. It takes a lot of courage to come back from both accidents and keep doing it at the level Rhi does.

    An apt video description XD
    Also, she and every other co-driver are some of the nuttiest people on earth. They have no DIRECT control over the car and they own it. Total respect to them

    A legend, but I would def watch a dinner after a rally between Rhi and Alex. Being both amazing codrivers but also husband and wife banter.

    Rhi, your story is so amazing. Wow, I had no idea the journey you have been through and the path that you have walked, to get where you are as one of the worlds best rally co driver. So glad I had the opportunity to meet you last weekend and Olympus 2024. You took the risk quit your teaching job to pursue your true passion and it was the definitely the right choice. Love this video and your story, it is personally such and inspiring story.
