I was one of 80 lucky people who attended this event hosted by Kayla Grey, presenter, producer and sports entrepreneur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Demi Chalkia, an Ontarian with drive<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-50249\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"432\" src=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/The-Mavericks-of-Motorsport-Demi-Chalkias.jpg\" alt=\"The-Mavericks-of-Motorsport---Demi-Chalkias\" class=\"wp-image-50249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/The-Mavericks-of-Motorsport-Demi-Chalkias.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/The-Mavericks-of-Motorsport-Demi-Chalkias-200x144.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Demi Chalkia<br>Photo: Mercedes-Benz Canada<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s start with Demi Chalkias, the Ontario driver who has twice won the Pirelli GT3\/GT4 Sprint Championship. She is constantly chasing her dreams, overcoming financial obstacles and health problems to achieve her goal of racing professionally. Her determination, resilience and ability to defy convention have played a key role in her career: \u201cI love racing. In doing so, I love showing girls they can succeed in male-dominated sports. In motorsport and beyond, we need to create a culture where everyone feels comfortable to be themselves and pursue their passion,\u201dshe says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Marc Lafleur, millionaire and racing champion<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-50250\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/The-Mavericks-of-Motorsport-Marc-Lafleur.jpg\" alt=\"The-Mavericks-of-Motorsport---Marc-Lafleur\" class=\"wp-image-50250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/The-Mavericks-of-Motorsport-Marc-Lafleur.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/The-Mavericks-of-Motorsport-Marc-Lafleur-200x113.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Marc Lafleur<br>Photo: Mercedes-Benz Canada<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I had the chance to chat for a few moments with the second Canadian driver, Marc Lafleur. The native of Cornwall, Ontario, founded the TruLOCAL e-commerce platform in 2016, before taking up motor racing, which he sold for $16.7&nbsp;million in 2020. It was this incredible business success that allowed him to pursue his dream of becoming a racing driver. It was in 2021, at the age of 31, that he began his adventure in motorsport by buying a race car, before becoming champion of the Pirelli Sprint series and CASC Rookie of the Year in 2022. Lafleur proves that this maverick mentality has led him to major achievements by challenging the rules and the status quo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhether it\u2019s entrepreneurship, business, or driving a racecar, I want to inspire others and be an examplethat you don\u2019t need a silver spoon to chase your dreams. My passion is working with the next generation of entrepreneurs, lettingblack and minority entrepreneurs know that we don\u2019t just deserve a seat at table, the table was made for us,\u201dsaid Lafleur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The arrival of Lewis Hamilton, the great champion!<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-50246\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Lewis-Hamilton-Formula-1-Grand-Prix-du-Canada-3rd-place-2023.jpg\" alt=\"Lewis-Hamilton---Formula-1-Grand-Prix-du-Canada---3rd-place---2023\" class=\"wp-image-50246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Lewis-Hamilton-Formula-1-Grand-Prix-du-Canada-3rd-place-2023.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Lewis-Hamilton-Formula-1-Grand-Prix-du-Canada-3rd-place-2023-200x250.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Lewis Hamilton, 3rd place at the Formula 1 Grand prix du Canada<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It took almost 30 minutes, but the great Lewis Hamilton, seven-time world champion and record holder for the most wins, top positions and podium finishes in Formula&nbsp;1 history, finally took to the stage. Named one of the 100 most influential people in 2020 by TIME magazine, he embodies the maverick spirit on the track as well as in life, being as involved in fashion as he is in causes as important as racism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFeeling different on the track was probably the hardest thing to overcome. When I started karting, I felt like I had a superpower; I felt like I could do things that no one else around me could do, and that gave me strength,\u201d adds Lewis Hamilton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lewis Hamilton had a great racing weekend, finished at the 3rd place at the Formula 1 Grand Prix du Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-50248\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Lewis-Hamilton-F1-Car-Mercedes-AMG-Petronas-F1-Ritz-Carlton-Montreal.jpg\" alt=\"Lewis-Hamilton-F1-Car---Mercedes-AMG-Petronas-F1---Ritz-Carlton-Montr\u00e9al\" class=\"wp-image-50248\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Lewis-Hamilton-F1-Car-Mercedes-AMG-Petronas-F1-Ritz-Carlton-Montreal.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Lewis-Hamilton-F1-Car-Mercedes-AMG-Petronas-F1-Ritz-Carlton-Montreal-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Lewis Hamilton car at Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1<br>Photo: Normand Boulanger | Gentologie<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This sums up the spirit of the German manufacturer\u2019s performance division, as Nikhil Ondhia, Chief Marketing &amp; Digital Officer, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mercedes-benz.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mercedes-Benz Canada<\/a> says: Mercedes-AMG is built upon a passion and obsession to innovate, drive performance, and challenge the status quo.
