Recently it was announced that I will be fronting the Formula 1 coverage for the BBC. I must say that I was absolutely thrilled to be asked and all I can hope is that next season will measure up to the epic year that was 2012.
After covering a varied portfolio of sporting events for 13 years, Wimbledon, Athens Olympics, Royal Ascot, London Marathon, Great North Run, the Boat Race and of course MotoGp, Superbike and Speedway, I decided to pursue a different professional route for personal reasons.
I adored working in the sporting arena, particularly Motorsport and I have missed the thrill of working live; in-fact I have felt a little lost without the pit-lane!
So a return to the BBC and indeed to enter the premier class of all Motorsport, F1, was the best Christmas present I have ever received.
I have a huge amount of respect for the BBC Team, those in front and behind the camera. I've crossed paths with both DC and EJ on several occasions and I think that if everyone is happy we can make some great telly... I'm also excited to team up with some of TV's most creative producers again; I have missed them!
However most of all, I'm looking forward to the race action. I will be giving 100% of myself to present the best shows possible and yes, for those who may be wondering about my 2 - wheeled life, I will have a close eye on that too!
I'm very aware that this is a tough but incredible job and that I have a huge Jake Humphrey shaped hole to fill. I will be giving it my very best shot and I hope that you will enjoy the continued coverage
Many thanks for all the comments and good luck wishes, they are very much appreciated. X
