Hey have you ever wanted to get to know every single podracer in The Phantom Menace in depth

Homeworld: Troiken
Fate in podrace: Gasgano tails the leaders for most of the podrace
Fun Facts: i like him. He had a camera installed on the back of his podracer hooked up to a screen in front so he could track people behind him

Ratts Tyerell. He’s the one who flies into the stalactite in the caverns and he dies and according to wookiepedia he was very famous on his home planet and it was an incredibly tragic event for his family and planet, who mourn him a in a deleted scene for some reason?

Teemto Pagliales he gets wrecked in the podrace but he does survive! Considered to be very handsome for his race. His crash led to a prequel meme

George Lucas invented some really cool guys. This is Clegg Holdfast who is actually a journalist for a magazine called Pod Racing Quarterly. He is briefly seen looking for quote “dirty news in the cantina at Mos Espa Grand Arena” before the podrace.

A Xamster from Xagobah. In “Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Casefiles on the Galaxy’s Most Notorious” it is actually made canon that a police investigator found evidence that he was kidnapped and assassinated by bounty hunter Aurra Sing who was working for Jabba the Hutt

We stan. He's a Dug from Mastalore. There's a comic where he has an adventure with Lando! or something idk i havent read it

Ben here is a Toong from the planet Tund. This was one of his first races, and he obviously does poorly but he went on be very successful and huge rivals with Sebulba. Anakin even had a poster of him on his wall.

what the fuck! apparently this guy was there but there's no info on him. I think if we could perceive him we would go mad.

hello king. i love you. last but not least. the best podracer ever. Anakin Skywalker
