Simon Vigar has beaten Nigel Mansell at karting and taken Michael Schumacher for tuition laps in an F430 at Fiorano. Simon keeps his feet on the ground working as motor sport correspondent for LBC Radio in London and has reported from many Grands Prix. He has also narrated the official Formula One videos and is an award-winning TV and radio news reporter. James Hunt's exploits got Simon hooked on F1 and his passion for Minardi developed in the early 90s. Cheering on the underdog in an increasingly grey, corporate world harked back to the days of Hesketh and James.
