Since joining the Red Bull Air Race in 2009, Canadian pilot Pete McLeod has competed all over the world – but never before in Russia. That will change this weekend when the first Russian race in the history of the sport takes off in Kazan.
The Canadian is in the best position of his career, which is all part of the plan. Pete McLeod is sitting third in the World Championship standings at the halfway point of the season. He looks to be in the form of his life as we head to Russia and the final four races of 2017.
Canadian pilot Pete McLeod celebrated Canada Day with 30,000 Red Bull Air Race fans in Hungary on Saturday, when he blazed to the top time in Qualifying for the World Championship stop in Budapest.
