Gabriel Gélinas
Gabriel Gélinas became an automobile journalist in 1992, as a natural extension of his experience in auto racing.
As a race driver-cum-lead instructor at the Jim Russell Racing School at Le Circuit Mont Tremblant, he developed a wide range of advanced driving programs. Today, he oversees the Trioomph Super Car Challenge. Gabriel is not just a sports car fan, he is also keenly interested in the new technologies developed by the automobile industry.
He contributes to the print and electronic versions of the Guide de l'Auto and the Guide de l'Auto Magazine, in addition to television channels TVA, LCN and Argent. He also hosts a television series on this history of the automobile on the Historia network and occasionally writes for the National Post.
Finally, Gabriel is the editor in chief of Moto Journal, Quebec's leading motorcycle magazine.
