Back in business

40

With the teams setting up at Albert Park in Melbourne and media sessions getting underway, it's good to see Manor back in the pit lane. The former Marussia team still carries the old name above its pit garage, while the las-minute nature of its preparations mean Roberto Merhi's name was not even above his side on Wednesday afternoon, but all that matters is that there are two cars here ready to hit the track.

Andrew first became a fan of Formula 1 during the time when Michael Schumacher and Damon Hill were stepping into the limelight after the era of Alain Prost, Nigel Mansell and Aryton Senna. He's been addicted ever since, and has been writing about the sport now for nearly a quarter of a century for a number of online news sites. He's also written professionally about GP2 (now Formula 2), GP3, IndyCar, World Rally Championship, MotoGP and NASCAR. In his other professional life, Andrew is a freelance writer, social media consultant, web developer/programmer, and digital specialist in the fields of accessibility, usability, IA, online communities and public sector procurement. He worked for many years in magazine production at Bauer Media, and for over a decade he was part of the digital media team at the UK government's communications department. Born and raised in Essex, Andrew currently lives and works in south-west London.
