Brits on Pole

And so our year in McLaren’s Grand Prix League competition comes to an end. We had fun, did moderately well - and learned a few handy lessons for next year. Here they are.

If you’ve enjoyed the live blogs, the race reports and the ’six word’ summaries we’ve produced for each race, we’re collecting them all together in a downloadable e-book that will be available as soon as we’ve incorporated our Brazilian Grand Prix coverage into the work so far.

Check out our guest series on F1 Fanatic.com looking at how the current gridful of F1 drivers got their big breaks.

If you’d like to know why we think the BBC should axe David Croft and Maurice Hamilton in 2009, sign up some new blood and, yes, even resist the temptation to bring back The Chain, then get yourselves along to the Vee8 blog, where we’ve written a guest post.

We’re (mostly) away from our keyboards at the moment, but we’ll be back in time for Barcelona and the A1GP finale at Brands Hatch. Plus we’ll catch on up A1GP in Shanghai and the action taking place in IndyCar this weekend. We’re also working on a brand new look for the site!

It falls to McLaren test driver Pedro de la Rosa to kick off Brits on Pole’s Quotes to Watch Out For feature.
