Andy's Bio

A Formula One fan for more than ten years, I have been following the sport in-depth for most of this time and have gathered a few strong, but reasoned opinions during my time. The articles I contribute to the Bleacher Report will be a mixture of news reporting and opinion, focusing on Formula One and the world surrounding this most fascinating and unique of sports.

Well, after a long absence, I'm back. Where have I been? Mostly messing around with my own motorsports website, http://www.runoffarea.co.uk. Maybe I can find time for both.

It's that time again, at long bloody last, for a new Roundtable, and myself and LJS have agreed on a new topic.

What was your most memorable moment of the 2008 Formula One Season?
