Will Buxton is one of the big names in Formula 1 reporting, the unofficial presenter of ‘Drive to Survive’.  

He’s been on the circuit for nearly 25 years, starting off as a staff writer for the official Formula 1 magazine and working his way up. 

“It’s been a wonderful twenty, yeah, twenty, nearly twenty-five years in Formula 1,” Buxton told Mike Hosking. 

“I’ve loved every second of it.” 

Two decades of experience in the industry have led Buxton to release an introductory book, ‘Grand Prix: An Illustrated History of Formula 1’, covering the 75 years the sport has existed.  

“I wanted to do something that was quite a gentle introduction,” he said. 

“I wanted to open it up and describe and explain the sport to new fans in a way that wasn't too scary, because F1 can get like that. It can get very intense and very detail driven.”
