Ken Block
Ken Block has only been driving rally cars for a short amount of time, but his list of accomplishments read like that of a seasoned pro. A long-standing passion for rally driving first led Block to link up with Vermont SportsCar late in 2004 where he began an intensive rally training program that included multiple test and schooling sessions. In 2005, Block's first year of rallying, he was aptly named Rally America's Rookie of the Year. As his career continued, Block's speed and skill behind the wheel became apparent and he signed on with Subaru Rally Team USA in 2006. From there he went on to take Bronze at X Games 12 in Los Angeles, and 2nd overall in the Rally America National Championship in 2006. In 2007 he had another strong year, winning the Silver Medal at the X Games 13 Rally and finishing 3rd Overall in the Rally America National Championship.
Block has a long and reputable history in the world of extreme sports. 14 years ago in California he co-founded DC Shoes, the highly successful skateboard shoe and apparel company. He is also an accomplished skateboarder, snowboarder and motocross rider. For the 2008 rally season, Ken Block is teamed with veteran co-driver Alex Gelsomino.
Co-Driver: Alessandro Gelsomino
Alex Gelsomino was born and raised in Italy, where he started competing in rallies at just 17 years-old. He actually applied for his Rally License the same day he obtained his driving permit! After moving to the USA in the mid-nineties Gelsomino has actively competed in North American rallies for several top drivers. He and Ken Block met early in Block's career in 2005. In their maiden season together Gelsomino helped Block achieve 'Rally America Rookie of the Year' honors.Source - Subaru Rally Team USA
