Deciding during journalism courses that being a war correspondent was not for me, I stepped into the “Piranha Club’ that is Formula 1 – a little less violent on most days, although that’s always up for some debate.
I started out at 365 before spreading my wings to France with F1-Live, but alas I was based in the UK at the time when McLaren, not Schumacher, were winning.
Returning home to South Africa as the German and Ferrari hit their stride to join PlanetF1, I climbed the ranks from writer to deputy to News Editor.
