BiographyEdit

Sandage, is one of the only podracers of his species, had been piloting since the age of two, using a Podracer fashioned on Ord Radama itself. On his homeworld, he attained great fame, but on other planets, his sense of direction was distorted, rendering him constantly discombobulated.

Upon meeting Sebulba, Sandage developed an intense, one-sided rivalry with the Dug racer, and became obsessed with defeating him before succumbing to senility at the age of nine. To this end, Sandage was prepared to resort to dubious tactics to ensure victory over the other pilot.

Before the Boonta Eve Classic, Sandage enlisted the aid of the hitman Aldar Beedo to dispatch Sebulba in midrace, leaving the path to victory open for Sandage. However, during the race, Sandage crashed in the third lap.

Wan Sandage died at some point before 24 BBY. His son, Wan Sandage Jr., continued to fly with Podracers.[2]

Behind the scenesEdit

The rough draft and first draft of Star Wars contained a character named Count Sandage, a noble at the court of King Kayos on Aquilae. He counsels the king to yield to the Galactic Empire, and later betrays the royal family to Darth Vader. He was omitted from later drafts, but the name was later reused by George Lucas for the podracer.

Sandage's voice in Star Wars: Episode I Racer was provided by Bob Bergen.

Note that Wan Sandage is confused, in Star Wars: The Clone Wars Volume 2: Crash Course in another Devlikk named Raido.
