Why I’m running carbon neutral in 2020
If I am to continue racing next year, it has to be in a way that reduces the impact on the environment of my motorsport activities. This is my pledge for carbon neutral running in 2020.

We discovered at Cadwell Park that my car appeared to be significantly down on power compared to my rivals. The aim of the trip to the workshop was to try and understand where…
